We need a house sitter

Canberra - Tuggeranong

Melanie

Christmas break in Canberra.

Come and look after our fun and friendly Golden Retrievers Zoe and Neo. Neo will be a big puppy at 10 months and Zoe is 1.5 years as well as the brother from another mother the cat MungMung - our toothless tiger. He is fairly shy but comes around for food!
Both the dogs and the cat use the doggy door and all are house trained.

Zoe and Neo keep each other entertained and require negligible walking. There is the Tuggeranong Hill only a short walk from the house if you feel like a workout walk to see the views of Southern Canberra.

All feed is provided for the duration we are away.

The home is clean and tidy with 4 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, back yard, paved outside undercover area area with lounges and a gas BBQ. Gas cooking, separate lounge and dining and plenty of space.

Calwell Shops within 3 min drive, Tuggeranong Lake and SouthPoint shopping center about a 5 minute drive if you want to see a movie or do some retail therapy. The city is approximately a 20 minute commute.

Pushbikes are available if you want to use the extensive bike path network.

Places of interest: National Museum, National Arboretum (best views for a lunch), National Portrait Gallery, National Gallery, Australian War Memorial, Parliament House, Old Pariament House, Lake Burley Griffin, Lake Tuggeranong, Epic Markets, Questacon, Royal Mint, National Zoo and Aquariam and Jamala Lodge and so much more.

Best walking and hiking: Mount Ainslie, Mount Taylor, Square Rock, Tidbinbilla, Gibraltar Peak, Corin Dam, Cotter Dam, Uriara Crossing and Pine Island for a picnic and a swim.
