Requirements

Standard 4 x 2 home that is close to Baldivis shopping centre, freeway access and short drive to the train station. The beach is also less than 15 minutes drive. I have a much loved garden that requires some care to ensure enough water in summer with spot hand watering, watering pots, mowing the lawn occasionally (front lawn is mowed once per month by mower man, so just needs a trim in between in summer). I have 4 happy chickens that lay big delicious eggs. They love to be allowed out to free range each day, and will need to be let out in morning and locked up for night. They require minimal care, as I have large feeders and water supply. The coop will need to be kept clean with regular change of bedding, but usually takes less than 10 mins every 3 days or so. I also have 3 small ponds with goldfish. They are fed twice/day in summer. To keep the water clear in summer they will need to have the water pumped through a sand filter every 2 - 3 weeks. This will need about 30 mins of time to set-up/clean per pond and regular checking while it is running for a few hours until the water clears. The ponds will also need regular topping up with water due to evaporation.

I am currently fostering 2 adorable dogs, and am considering adoption. One Maltese boy and one Cavoodle boy. They are inside dogs that like to be close to someone most of the day. They are anxious when left alone and will need someone who does not leave the home for long periods of time. They are walked every afternoon for a short walk, which they love, however they have had little lead training or dog interaction before. They will need someone who is confident and can remain calm and firm to support their ongoing training and socialisation. They will need you to give them weekly baths at home and dry them, and regular grooming as required.

Finding a suitable house sitter, will help me determine whether I can adopt these two adorable boys and still be able to go away. Ideally I will be interested in someone who can meet with me and the boys prior to the assignment, so they can be introduced and become familiar with you. We will also be away for up to 3 months in March, April, May 2018, so it will also be a plus if you will be available to housesit at this time as well.

Please note that the dates are approximate and may vary by a few days.
