We need a house sitter

Sydney - Inner West

Luzette and Raul

Hi there Sitters,

My wife, daughter and I are travelling for 3 weeks and we need a sitter to look after the house and our dog. It’s a three bedroom house, 1 shower with toilet and an extra toilet in the laundry, plants inside and outside, with a good size back garden and a garage. Located in Rhodes, NSW, at walking distance from Rhodes Central and IKEA shopping centres (10 mins walk), the Rhodes train station is 3 mins walk. Top Ryde shopping Centre is 6 minutes drive. Olympic park is 5 mins driving distance.

Our furry son is a lovely cattle dog x kelpie, his name is Alfonso (or Alfie). We need someone that can look after the house, the plants, the back garden lawn, the front lawn and that can take care of Alfonso, walk him at least once every day, or if possible twice a day. Preferably someone that works either hybryd or full time from home (remotely) so Alfonso has plenty of company.

Tasks:
Collect mail, water plants inside and outside, mow lawn (back garden and front of house) when needed, take care of Alfonso as if your own.

Nice people. Alfonso is very sweet but cannot be left for longer than an hour at a time. Be mindful of this as personal items were destroyed. Good communication throughout the sit. The house did require a significant amount of cleaning upon arrival and expectations upon return was different to how it was left. After completing the house sit, I received many messages in which made me feel very harassed.

Thanks for your review Shannon, sorry to hear you felt harassed, not the intention and was purely feedback for your next sits, we will improve communication next time and be more specific prior to the sit assignment too. Even though we don’t entirely agree with your comments as things could ... MORE
Lulu, Raul and baby Kai are all very lovely people, and their doggy Alfie if the most adorable dog I've ever met in my life! The house is very comfortable and the garden is a great space to be, and play with Alfie all day. I enjoyed my stay very much and wish them all the best!

It was a pleasure having you and John as our house/pet sitters... can't tahnk you enough!!
Raul and Luz thank you for welcoming us into your beautiful home. We really enjoyed the space that you have created, inside and out. Alfonso was the best companion, he was our gentle little shadow for two weeks and we miss the little guy dearly. We hope we can help out on another house sit soon. All the best guys, and thank you again!

We had a great time looking after Alfie and his very comfortable house with a very beautiful, peaceful sunny backyard. Alfie is a very sweet and very well behaved dog. Instructions were clear and communication was very efficient. We appreciated the opportunity and would be happy to enjoy Alfie's company again if the opportunity arises.
