Assignment Requirements

Hi, my Husband and I need a House Sitter while we are away overseas in August. Our home is a small 3 brm home on 14 acres just 7 minutes out of Clare, we are also close to the Riesling Trail if they bring their bikes or would like to walk it. The House Sitter(s) can use our Spare Room to sleep in which has a comfortable double bed. Ideally, if they have their own Caravan and would prefer their own bed, they can bring that as there are a few perfect spots to park it around the house. Lots of Bird life and Kangaroos that move through our property at that time of the year. No immediate neighbours, very serene and great views.

We have 3 cats that will need daily feeding and attention. Bella is our 3 month old kitten and gets into mischief; Millie is 8 years old and Louie is 18 years old, sleeps all day but does need daily medication which he has been getting for years and is very easy to give.

My pot plants and garden around the house will need to be watered when needed. If they feel like it, they can hop on the ride on mower and mow the grass around the house but they don't have to if they don't want to. I have some great photos of the property if they would like to have a look.

Let me know if you need any further info.

Suburb Insights

Mornings in Clare unfold gently. Your furry charge will appreciate the unhurried start to the day. The Riesling Trail, often just steps from residential areas, offers a long, shaded path perfect for a brisk walk past vineyards and olive groves. After returning, a stop at one of the cafes on Horrocks Highway for a flat white feels like a local ritual. The town wakes at a measured pace, reflecting the valley's rhythm, providing ample opportunity to bond with your companion animal before the day truly begins. Midday errands are easily managed on foot. A quick walk to the IGA or Foodland for supplies is typical; many homes sit within easy reach of the main street's conveniences. This allows for quiet afternoons tending to the house, or simply enjoying the garden with your pet nearby. Life here encourages a relaxed approach to daily tasks, far removed from city rush. Local parks provide alternative green spaces for a shorter stroll if the entire Riesling Trail feels too ambitious. Later in the day, the scent of eucalypts often drifts on the breeze as the sun begins to lower. Consider a leisurely amble along the quiet back streets, discovering historic stone cottages and the area's established gardens. Evenings are typically peaceful, ideal for settling in with your companion animal after their final outing, perhaps a short wander around the block. The ambient quiet fosters a sense of calm, making it easy to adapt to your temporary home and its specific routines. Your days here will flow with an ease that quickly becomes familiar.
