Heather

Hi,

We are looking for reliable and honest house sitters who are good with dogs and farm animals to help look after our place while we are away early new year 2025. We have 2 dogs (Elly, a German short haired pointer who will be 9 months old at time of house sit and border collie, Scruffy), 1 cat Skye), 4 alpacas, several sheep, 8 chickens and ducks (probably ducklings too).

There is a games room for your use, as well as a pool outside. Lots of great bird life and only 5km to town.

No photos of the house for security purposes, but can provide further details to the right house sitters to consider.

Heather left great instructions, following a zoom meeting online. The house is clean, extremely spacious with a fabulous pool. The dogs were a delight keeping us entertained with their antics. They became close friends very quickly. We found Heather very responsive and would be happy to sit at this farmer again. Thanks for the stay. Clare, Graeme, Ash and Ailis.

We loved our house sit for Heather and the farm animals. We were made very welcome when we arrived the day before. If ever you are asked to house sit at this little farmlet, don't turn it down. It's a beautiful setting. Thank you for asking us, Judy and Len.
