Assignment Requirements

Hi all, we are looking for someone to house sit for a short time just around Christmas. Can be flexible with dates as required. We live in Marian in the beautiful Pioneer Valley region of Mackay, gateway to Eungella rainforest, Finch Hatten Gorge, and of course the beautiful Whisundays.

Our furry little overlords are a collection of Maincoon cats with massive paws and massive personalities - so every day with them is guaranteed to be fun! Requirements are minimal - watering garden and being food service and company for our fur babies, outside that you are free to enjoy our beautiful region. Rainforest, beaches and plenty of peace and quiet!

Would love to hear from anyone interested - thanks.

Suburb Insights

Marian, a quiet locale nestled amidst sugarcane fields, offers a distinct, unhurried pace. Your own vehicle is indispensable here for managing daily life and pet care; public transport options are virtually non-existent. The Marian Town Centre is your primary hub, housing an IGA supermarket, a pharmacy, a post office, and other local services for most household and immediate pet needs. For any broader shopping, medical appointments, or specialist vet services beyond urgent care, a 30-minute drive into Mackay will be necessary. Daily dog walks in Marian mostly involve the quieter local streets, offering a calm environment for exercise away from busy traffic. Always be mindful of the rural surroundings; wildlife can be present, especially near the cane fields, so leash control is important. While the Pioneer River winds nearby, dedicated walking paths along its banks within town limits are limited. Instead, explore the specific local parks for open space. Embracing the slower rhythm means anticipating needs, ensuring your vehicle is fueled for necessary errands, whether that's collecting pet supplies or enjoying a fresh treat from the local bakery.
