We need a house sitter

Canberra - Inner North

Michelle

We have a freestanding house in a quiet st and 2 beautiful cats in Canberra’s leafy inner North. Our house is very private and equipped with all mod cons including a dedicated home cinema with 2.8m screen, surround sound and reclining arm chairs. It’s beautiful. We have all the streaming services which you can access from our home cinema and on the living room TV. We have 2 x Tempur beds - one split king size (medium-firm) with ensuite and one queen size (medium).

Our kitchen has everything you will need including an Instapot and automated coffee machine. Our living room opens onto our backyard patio with outdoor furniture and lots of shade for summer.

Our house is a short walk from Lyneham shops, which has cafes, takeaway shops and supermarkets. We are also a short drive or 20 minute walk to Dickson, which is a restaurant Mecca including Canberra’s Chinatown. Also close to Dickson Aquatic Centre. We are a 15 minute walk from the tram to Gungahlin or the city and a 4 minute walk to local bus stops where you can access 2 different routes to the city. We are also close to bus stops heading to Dickson and Belconnen.

Nothing to do in the garden. Just enjoy the house and give food, water and kindness to our much loved 5 year old cats, Meg and Mog. Meg is a Ragdoll and Mog is a British Shorthair. They are outdoor cats but spend most of their time indoors and in our garden. Since we got our Colourbond fences this year, they don't leave our yard. They mostly do their business outdoors so not much kitty litter to empty. They come and go as they please through the cat flap but we would ask you to lock them indoors at night.

We have evaporative cooling and heating so the house is very comfortable in any weather.

Michelle and Simon were terrific home owners and their two cats, Meg and Mog, were a delight to care for. We met up with Michelle and Simon a few weeks beforehand when they showed us around their home and introduced us to the cats. O Michelle and Simon had readied the house for us and left us a detailed 'cheat sheet' which we referred to regularly and was most helpful. Meg, the rag-doll cat was very affectionate and gentle, and happy to be picked up and cuddled. Mog was quite shy to start ... MORE

We really enjoyed our time housesitting for Michelle & Simon looking after Meg & Mog. The cats were easy to look after and their routine was easy to follow with clear instructions provided & good communication throughout the sit. The house is clean & comfortable & closely situated to the centre of Canberra so lots of things to do. Would definitely stay again.
