About this house sitting position in Yarrambat

We have a brick family home on 5 acres in Yarrambat on the north east edge of Melbourne.
Stunning views to Yarra Ranges and 1 acre of gardens. Located 45 mins from the centre of Melbourne by car and serviced by a local bus with shops (Diamond Creek or Greensborough) with connections to trains. We have a spoilt cat that will need feeding and looking after and 4 pet sheep that need some feed depending on grass. Modern kitchen. Slate or polished board floors.
Kangaroos visit the property most days and the birdlife is stunning. Great walking from front door. Lots of local bike paths. Popular rustic cafe (Tankes Corner) 2-3 minutes walk. Wineries, cafes and restaurants abound in the area .
Inspirational views from most windows making it a great place to work from home.
We travel often throughout the year so also would be good for someone who has fallback accommodation and is saving for a home. An interest in the garden and a few jobs in the garden would be appreciated

“I really enjoyed house and pet sitting for Sue & Rob. They were both so very welcoming. Sue & Rob have a lovely home with stunning views and a combustion heater for the cold nights. Their cat Ginge was a delight, and along with their two pet sheep, were easy to look after. I would welcome the opportunity to sit again if it arose. Jane”

Thankyou Jane for your superb care of Ginge and our sheep . We are glad you enjoyed our house and environs. We hope it will work out for you to accept another sit with our 4 legged family. Enjoy your travels. Thanks, Sue and Rob

“I really enjoyed looking after Rob and Sue's home and animals. I loved Ginge the big ginger Tom who just loved his pats and cuddles. The sheep were no problem and the garden was easy to look after and water each day. there was an abundance of jucy plums to enjoy as well as fresh home grown tomatoes. Sue and Rob were very welcoming and friendly and I would recomend this sit and would welcome the chance to go back should the occasion arise.”
