Home exchange and house swap holiday accommodation in Horsham, Grampians, VIC
We are Kylie and Steve from reginal Victoria. After a six year break from our 18 month back-to-back Aussie House Sitting days, we are ready for more adventures! Prior to our pet-sitting, we ran a café and B&B for 8 years in the beautiful wine region of Great Western. We know the standards expected from guests and are respectful of their privacy and for those we pet-sat for. Being foodies, we love experiencing new cafes and restaurants, exploring and discovering new things as well spending time with our children and grandchildren in Queensland and Bendigo.

Our house is in a quiet neighbourhood and a few minutes walk to the river. The house is modern with three living spaces and ensuite to the main bedroom with a kingsize bed.
As I work from home, the back half of the house is dedicated to Family Day Care. You will have the use of a guest room and bathroom in that area.
Outside in the fully fenced yard is a pergola and large grassed area.
