Hackett ACT

I am looking for a responsible single person or couple to look after my small 3-bedroom house with garden in Canberra over Christmas and New Year. It's a neat and tidy, sunny house in a nice suburb close to shops and public transport, and easily accessible from the Federal Highway and airport. I have carpet in the bedrooms, tiles in the hallway, bathroom, and kitchen, heating/cooling throughout and good security arrangements including an alarm system. The house sitter will have the use of the spare bedroom, which has a QS bed, built in robe and cat door (entrance to the magnificent catio). I have a covered deck at the back overlooking the garden, which is great for entertaining. Parking is off street in the driveway and I have a single carport. I have NBN internet, which is available for your use, and Google chromecast so you can stream to the TV.

I have two friendly and loving indoor kitties who need to be fed once a day and provided fresh water. Their kitty litter also needs to be maintained, though they both prefer to go outdoors (in their catio) where possible. One is more playful than the other, so if you like to play he will love that. The other is more of a lap cat, so if you like that she will be in your lap without much encouragement.

A couple of indoor pot plants needs occasional watering, as do a few outdoor pot plants. Depending on the rainfall some garden beds may also need watering and the lawn may need to be mown (I have everything needed for this).

I live walking distance from two nature reserves, and close to a bikeway as well, which is great for the outdoors or birding enthusiast. Nothing is too far away, including many restaurants and cafes, a couple of supermarkets, and the EPIC farmer's market held every Saturday. It's a great place to explore Canberra from!
