Short drive to beautiful Rapahoe beach and the start of the Elizabeth Point trail . . I have Ruby a small 3 year old charming mongrel and Min a 10 year old Burmese cross cat . . Also 6 laying hens and 3 white Pekin ducks . .would appreciate some garden care and will need to water pot plants if necessary . . My neighbours mostly buy my eggs but sometimes tourists

We were honoured to be Robyn’s first house sitter. Ruby the dog and Min the cat are both easy going and affectionate. The chooks and ducks are good characters too. All animals are easy to care for and Robyn provided clear instructions, as well as thoughtful information on the local area. The house is comfortable with wonderful outdoor areas. Overall a lovely house sit which we would happily recommend and return to if able.
