🐾 House Sitter Wanted | Suburban Sanctuary with Cats, a Collie & Cozy Comforts ✨
Location: North Brisbane suburbs — a quiet, accessible neighborhood with everything you need in reach
We’re looking for a gentle, reliable house sitter to care for our much-loved pets and home while we’re away. It’s a perfect short-term retreat for someone who appreciates calm days, companion animals, and a well-appointed space to rest or work from.
🗓️ Dates: Nov 27th 2025 - December 17th 2025
📍 Location: Griffin 4503 approx. 35mins north of Brisbane CBD - easy drive to the Sunshine Coast, five mins from the highway for the Gold Coast.
🏡 The Home:
A spacious, two-storey home with modern comforts and room to breathe.
4 bedrooms, 2.5 bathrooms
Study, media room, library
Open-plan living/dining with ducted aircon + heating
Large kitchen with butler’s pantry
Washer/dryer, dishwasher, and Wi-Fi
Toiletries provided: shampoo, conditioner, lotions, toothbrush/paste, slippers; think of it like a hotel!
A small backyard with fruit trees and a gazebo — perfect for a morning cuppa
Well-appointed study for any work-from-homers
Boat ramp and waterfront cafe five mins drive away
Great suburb walking paths and nearby nature trails
Ten minutes drive from a Westfield shopping centre
Five minutes walk to nearest bus stop
Ten minutes drive to nearest train station
Quiet suburb with friendly neighbours
Easy access north or south on the highway
Plenty of food options available nearby (including a wide array of Uber Eats)
🐶 Your Companions:
1 Border Collie — affectionate, intelligent, and a total sook
He is a self-proclaimed inside dog who loves routine - and attention, sneaky treats, and taking up as much space as possible on the couch or bed
He will be three next February and is well-trained (including crate-trained).
5 Indoor Cats — soft-hearted, sweet souls who also love routine (and food!)
Our oldest is 13 and our youngest is 5
The personalities range from “I am ruler of the universe don’t touch me” to “sit down so I can lay on you for the love”
All are strictly indoor only (please be mindful when opening doors)
All of the horde are fed morning and evening
🌿 What We’re Looking For:
Someone kind, tidy, and confident with animals
Comfortable feeding pets, scooping litter trays, and maintaining basic routines
Willing to mow the lawn for the doggo’s yard to remain fresh (we can always outsource this if simpler)
Keep the cats and home secure and loved
Our home is our haven and holds our six most precious reasons to live — we’re looking for someone who’ll treat them with the same love and care we do while we’re away
✨ What You’ll Enjoy:
A peaceful place to rest your head, fast internet, a fully stocked home, and the love of six furry companions who will be forever grateful for your care.
