Description
Hello lovely house sitters
I have just been invited to spend Christmas with my son and moko in Australia and I’d love to go!
I have an elderly cat and I’m reluctant to leave her, I definitely don’t want to put her in a cattery and so I would love for someone to come and be with her in her own environment.
She has no special needs and is an easy companion but she’s an under-duvet co sleeper, so you will have to be ok with that.
My little house is a second dwelling on a rural property between Taupo and Kinloch and 10 minutes from the lake in both directions.
Ideally you’d have your own car, or I can leave mine behind if we can organise dropping me at the airport.
There are two bedrooms, so it would suit a single person, a couple or two friends who want to room separately.
There are no other ‘chores’ requiring constant presence, maybe watering the plants every other night and making sure the chickens are fed and watered. Bonus feature: free happy eggs.
Very secluded property with zero need to bump into, see or interact with any neighbours unless you want to.
Internet is great thanks to starlink and I have Netflix and Disney+ subscriptions for all your Christmas movie needs.
I have not booked my trip yet, so the dates are approximate but some overlap is OK, as I have that spare bedroom. I would like you to be here at least a day before I leave for a site and cat induction. 😄
I have no experience in advertising for a house sitter, so if I have forgotten crucial information, please feel free to message and ask.
