Our home

Our home is located in Botany. Its a large family home with 2 large lounges and a great outdoor area.
Our home is at the end of a cul de sac surrounded by tall eucalyptus trees and lots of greenery. There is a large lawn to lounge in, and a west facing patio and gets all of the afternoon sun. The large by-fold doors connect the spaces together beautifully.

favoriteWhat we love about our area

We love how peaceful our home is. Its close to so much, but is so quiet!
The house gets great sun both morning and night - Our favourite thing to do as a family is have dinner out on the patio (beverage in hand) in the afternoon sun.
We also love how much space there is.

Our pets

CatsCats (1)
Toffee Pop is a 5 year old long hair Turkish Van. He is very independent and very low maintenance. His care involves feeding twice per day (wet food morning and night, along with biscuits throughout the day); and giving cuddles as often as possible.
Caveat - he has a very shy temperament so may take some getting used to.

We are a wee family- we're in our 30's, with a boisterous nearly-2 year old son, alongside a 5 year old fur baby. We love the music, being outdoors, cooking, and staying active.

I had a lovely time looking after Toffeepop for Rahul and Mahashweta. We met prior to the sit to discuss details and they also left me a doc with instructions, which was really helpful. They left me a lovely welcome message which put a smile on my face and made me feel at home. They have a lovely place which soaks up the sun and there are many options to get a nice breeze coming through. It was really relaxing and I enjoyed watching Christmas movies on Netflix.

Toffeepop is a very sweet boy. He was anxious at first but gradually got used to me and was keen for my company. I was stoked to see him becoming more comfortable. He is a lovely, chatty boy, and very soft :) I really enjoyed my stay.
