Slim sitting on one of mine and his favourite chairs just outside the kitchen. Taken a few years ago, there is now more garden and a different cushion.

Assignment Requirements

House sit for our 1 acre home with alot of garden while we are travelling in the van. We are on tank water just 10 minutes out of Maryborough.

Slim, 8 year Jack Russel needs looking after and to be kept company. He gets very anxious with storms, wind, rain, thunder, and fire.

Also we have 10 chooks and 2 roosters who need letting out in the morning and locked up at night, plus fed and watered. The roosters are a very tiny Belgium breed with feathers on their feet, and their voices are smaller than large roosters.

There are a few guppies in the little pond that get a bit of fish food also.

Slim loves sitting out on the front chair keeping an eye on the place , and the possums.

Suburb Insights
Mornings in Oakhurst unfold with a quiet calm, setting a relaxed pace for the day's pet routines. The residential streets provide gentle shaded paths for early walks, letting dogs sniff at their leisure while you observe the local birdlife waking. Returning home, the calm energy ensures an easy transition to breakfast and settling your charges into their familiar spaces. Later in the day, a longer ramble might lead you to Maryborough's Queens Park, where established trees offer shade and expansive lawns invite a good run, connecting with the local rhythm of the town. Alternatively, the Riverside Walk along the Mary River provides a scenic route for both human and canine companions, the water's gentle flow a calming backdrop. This natural proximity simplifies daily exercise, ensuring happy, well-exercised pets. Back at the Oakhurst residence, evenings settle into a comfortable rhythm. The local Fraser Coast Growers Market on Thursdays in Maryborough offers a chance to gather fresh ingredients, allowing for quiet home-cooked meals. With pets content after their outings, the home becomes a sanctuary, reflecting the slower, deliberate pace of life here. This considered tempo makes for an undemanding house-sitting experience, focusing on genuine care and peaceful cohabitation.
