About

We're a couple in our 50's and are looking to spend up to a month away in Oct/Nov (dates are flexible) and are looking for sitters to enjoy our 3 bedroom house with a swimming pool and surrounding garden (which can fit a caravan). Our cat Pinkie fares poorly in a cattery so we are keen for a house sitter who loves cats. Pinkie is a cheeky 11 year old Devon Rex house cat who is half affectionate and half I want my own time. The spare bedroom for guests hosts a double bed and a separate bathroom and toilet.

We ask the sitters to look after our gorgeous Pinkie, showing some affection and feeding her twice a day/cleaning the litter, watering some plants every couple of days and if interested (but not expected) give the pool a quick clean. Of course, the pool and bbq are yours to enjoy. We are in a nice area of Marrara, 5 minutes walk from the supermarket and golf club.

Pets & farm animals

11 year old Devon Rex house cat named Pinkie. She loves cuddles in the morning and evening but the rest of the day she sleeps on her own. Pinkie can be taken for walks in the garden but you need to keep an eye on her as she loves to jump the back fence (she is super quick). We have a cat cage out the back which we put her in for several hours a day when she expresses an interest (which is most days) however we do not expect the sitters to pander to our cats every whim (we do, but that's because she's our cat!).

House Tasks

We ask that sitters check the letterbox every few days, water the pot plants every couple of days, take out the bins once a week and not essential but if you are willing and able, clean the pool.
