We need a house sitter

Southland - Invercargill

Trudy

Looking for a house sitter for around a week over Easter/school holidays. New 4 bedroom warm home on a lifestyle block in Otatara with lovely expansive rural views. Sleeps 8. We have 11 free range chickens (there will be lots of free eggs). One is a little austrolorp bantam rooster, not aggressive.

Pet care will be feeding the chickens and filling their water feeder. Garden care will be watering indoor pot plants.

A short drive to Oreti Beach and Sandy Point (mountain biking). Lots of nice bush walks nearby including Daffodil Bay and Fosbender Park.
