Regional NSW - Northern Tablelands
Wendy and Dave
Hello, we are Dave and Wendy, an active semi-retired couple seeking a house-sitter or couple between the approximate dates 12-04-25 to 26-05-25.
We are planning to go on a holiday to UK and Europe but need to lock in a house-sitter before we book our flights.
Our 9 acre patch of serenity is located 7 km from the small township of Guyra NSW Northern Tablelands. Guyra is 35 km north of Armidale and 65 km south of Glen Innes. A beautiful fresh cool climate with no humidity, and during April/May the countryside turns picture perfect with the glorious colours of Autumn.
Prefer non-smoker with clean living habits.
We have 2 horses and 1 cat to feed and look after while we are away, and have a couple of indoor plants and a small outdoor garden to water every two or three days.
One of the horses will need to be rugged/unrugged daily and hooves picked out (he is very quiet).
We are on a very secluded and quiet 9 acres 7 km out of Guyra with no near neighbours, definitely 'away from it all'.
Our house is a neat 2 bdrm cottage, with a reliable off-grid system for power, with gas hot water and gas stove. We have a wood heater to keep the house nice and cosy with plenty of stacked firewood to use.
Our cat Ccino (pronounced 'Cheeno') gets dry feed twice a day and is kept inside every night, and will need his litter tray tended to daily. He is very social and loves human company, is likely to follow you around.
Our 2 horses are fed twice a day, given hay in the morning and a chaff mix plus hay late afternoons.
The water troughs for the horses will need to be checked every couple of days.
We would love to hear from you if you think this house-sitting stint fits you and would like to experience a Northern Tablelands climate in Autumn on a very peaceful property.
PS The Glen Innes Celtic Festival is on early May and is well worth a visit.
