Assignment Requirements

My family are temporarily re-locating to Europe from July 2023 - Jan 2024 (specific dates to be advised). We are seeking a house sitter for our home during that period who will look after our house and contents like their own and care for our cat.

Our home is a 4 bedroom, low-set, one level home located in the Mackay region. We have a nicely maintained yard and shed that could be used for storage during your stay.

Basic home-keeping such as cleaning, mowing, watering the lawn etc would be required for the stay. Our home is very low-maintenance so won't be a time suck. We have one cat, also low maintenance, who just likes to be fed daily and pat occasionally.

The house is located in the beautiful Mackay region, a great central point to explore all that the the Whitsundays, Isaac and Mackay regions have to offer.

Suburb Insights

Your stay in Marian, postcode 4753, offers a quieter pace nestled amongst sugarcane fields. Daily errands generally involve a short drive; the Marian Town Centre is your primary hub for groceries, a pharmacy, and a local bakery. Consider vehicle use essential for accessing these amenities, especially when needing to transport pet food or other bulk supplies. For pet exercise, local streets provide ample walking routes in the cooler hours. The lack of dedicated dog parks means street-side walks are the norm, so pack a sturdy leash and waste bags for your daily outings. Should a vet visit be necessary, clinics are a drive towards Mackay, requiring pre-planning for appointments and travel time. Understanding this regional spread is key to a smooth routine. While Marian offers local convenience, venturing beyond means relying on your vehicle. For broader retail options or a seaside stroll, the drive to Mackay's beaches or major shopping complexes will take approximately thirty minutes. There are no local public transport links connecting Marian to these outer areas. Enjoy the quiet evenings and the distinct rural aspect; your daily schedule will naturally align with the sun's rhythm and the town's gentle hum.
