We need a house sitter

Manawatū-Whanganui - Tararua

Laura

We have a family house on a lifestyle block 15km from town. We have 2 sets of neighbours nearby who are always happy to help if needed. Our friendly pet animals, all get along well together, and are easy to care for. There is no farm stock. Outdoors, our 2 alpacas just require some pellet food each day. The chicken coop needs opened/closed each day and their food hopper topped up weekly. We have a fishtank with several tropical fish that need fed in the morning and their light switched on/off each day. Our 2 cats come and go as they please by cat flap and will need their kibble dispensers topped up weekly. They enjoy company and pats once they are familiar with you. Lastly, we have 4 dogs that all live inside and are crate trained. 2 medium size collie cross girls about 9 yrs old and 2 small, two year old bichon cross siblings. We have a large garden that the dogs enjoy playing in and a nearby farm track for walking if you want to take them out. The little dogs love human company so we are looking for someone who is able to spend the majority of their time at home with them. They are not particularly demanding but are always looking to have a nap next to you! There is a log burner to keep the whole house warm in winter but we also have electric heaters if necessary.

We loved staying at Laura’s and Mick’s house with all the pets. It’s situated in a rural area and is a really calm place with a well-equipped kitchen (we loved cooking here!). All the dogs were nice, easygoing, and really friendly. They love going for walks and cuddling on the sofa, and even both of the cats liked to spend time with us. The alpacas were modest and really funny, and the chickens were the same. We could even use the eggs. Laura left us a detailed manual, so we knew exactly what ... MORE
