Description

Charming bungalow in Burnaby Heights with great view of the mountains, lush well manicured yard, nearby restaurants, parks, and pools. With its convenient location one bus ride to downtown and the North Shore, you'll love the peaceful, family-oriented neighbourhood. Comes with a quiet, independent and affectionate female cat. You will enjoy 2 bedrooms on the main floor with 1 queen bed in one room and single bunk beds in the other. The basement has a bedroom with a second queen bed, sit/stand office desk and walk-in closet. Your guests can spend the night thanks to the pull-out couch in the basement den that converts to a double. There are two bathrooms in the home, one on each floor. Note that the upstairs bathroom only has a bath, perfect for the kids. The showers are taken in the basement bathroom with plenty of hot water supply. You will be sharing the space with Stella, a mostly-quiet and at-times overly affectionate cat who will require feeding and litter care. North Burnaby, or Burnaby Heights as the locals call it, is a great, safe neighborhood. The home is five walking blocks down from the main artery that has shops and markets and banks and liquor store and plenty of restaurants, with the extra convenience that you can take one bus which takes you directly downtown to SFU's Harbour Centre campus, one bus directly to BCIT's Burnaby campus, or one bus East to SFU's Burnaby Mountain campus, each in about 30 minutes. Don't care much for the bus? You can borrow bikes and cycle around town on the many bike lanes, or enquire about use of the car.

House Sitting

I am looking for help while I am away

I would like help with my pet(s)

Stella is a fluffy cat who lounges in the yard by day and sleeps indoors at night. Her favourite pastime is sitting on your chest and purring loudly every chance she gets. She has little patience for busy kids and mostly stays out of their way.

I would like help with plants or garden

Front and back yards have sprinkler system which is automated, but flowers and herbs on back deck and in the yard will need watering every couple of days, and indoor plants as well.
