Assignment Requirements

We are looking for someone to stay in our four bedroom home and be a companion for our ‘chatty’ 13 year old cat who enjoys lots of company, will actively seek you out and definitely would like to sleep with you and keep you warm. We are driving across to visit our daughter in Canberra and will be gone for about 10 weeks.

We would prefer someone who is home most of the time to keep our fur-baby company during the day and is happy to sleep with her. She is not on any medication but will need her kitty litter changed daily, regularly grooming and feeding and her numerous water bowls topped up.

If you would like to tend to the garden, this would be welcome but not required (it is quite large) and we will arrange for lawnmowing as required. There are some pot plants that will need watering, mailbox will need checking and any rubbish will need putting out once a week.

We have reverse cycle air conditioning, Wi-Fi, comfortable beds, a fully equipped kitchen and a large living area and beautiful garden/backyard to relax in. There is secure lockup parking for one car and off street parking for additional cars.

Our house is on a large block in a quiet cul-de-sac, and is a 7 minute walk to the train or major bus route, or a 10 minute drive to the airport, Perth City, Optus Stadium, Crown Casino and two major shopping centres. We are close to the Swan River (a short drive or a long walk) and the Bayswater Riverside Gardens – a great place for exercising or picnics.

About the Area

BAYSWATER Perth, Western Australia
Suburb Insights
Your mornings in Bayswater establish a pleasant rhythm centered around the Swan River. For the resident dog, this often means a stroll through Bayswater Riverside Gardens, where the path hugs the water's edge, offering a calm start to the day. The cool air carries the scent of eucalyptus as the neighbourhood slowly stirs. Following a good walk, a short detour for a flat white at a local café on King William Street can punctuate the routine, ensuring pets remain on their accustomed schedule. Midday hours offer a slower pace for daily errands. Groceries are a straightforward walk to the local shops, or if it’s Sunday, the Bayswater Growers Market provides fresh produce and a community buzz. Navigating the quiet streets on foot makes collecting household supplies or specific pet food simple. The Bayswater train station, a convenient hub for Airport and Midland lines, offers effortless connections across the city if you plan an excursion beyond the immediate surrounds, though most daily necessities are within walking distance. As afternoon light softens, another walk might lead through Bert Wright Park, a smaller, green space ideal for a dog’s afternoon sniff-around. The area’s relaxed atmosphere means evenings are typically quiet, lending themselves to home-cooked meals prepared with ingredients sourced locally. You will settle into a pleasant rhythm here, where the sound of birds often replaces traffic, and the daily tasks of pet care blend seamlessly with living comfortably in someone else’s home.
