Some yard work, DIY and pet-sitting at our new Queensland home, Australia

  Description

  I (Laura) am from Scotland and Joe is Australian. We have two very energetic preschool kids and two less energetic, but equally adorable, cocker spaniels!
  
  We’ve recently just moved into our new home and have some work to do to add the finishing touches! These include some yard work, including lawn care, planting, building veggie patches. We also have some other key tasks, like building the kids’ jungle, which isn’t a necessity but might suit someone who enjoys that kind of project!
  
  We’re looking for someone to live the spaniels for us in June, while we’re overseas! Emmanuel and Jose are both 9. Emmanuel loves a good game of fetch and Jose enjoys watching!
  
  We have wifi, Netflix and Disney+
  
  There’s no public transport here, but Uber and taxis are both available. Your own transport would be preferable.
