We have a townhouse, in Oakleigh Victoria, a 10 minute walk from the train station, and just off Warrigul rd, within a 2 minute drive to Chadstone Shopping Centre. We are going to be away from January 7th, returning on the evening of February 21st. Although we ask the usual things of a housesitter - to keep the home clean, maintain the garden etc, our concern is for the care of our lab, Jenny. She is a lovely 7 year old lab, who is used to someone being around most of the day, and every night. She goes to the park every day (Ardrie Park, Malvern East), and in summer, sometimes to the beach. She has her routines and is a tactile creature, often craving attention and love! She has her food cooked everyday (which I will have prepared) and just a few treats and vitamins. She is used to sleeping with us in the bedroom and is a part of our day to day lives. 6 weeks is a long time, and so, we want her to be comfortable in her own home while we are away, and ideally, we may like to in occasionally to communicate and are looking for regular communication and photos.
If you are a clean, trustworhty and energetic person, happy to do the daily dog run to Ardrie Park and keep her company, then please get in touch. Ideally, we would like to shortlist, meet and have you come to our home to meet Jenny.
We can offer a comfortable home in return over the summer.
Thanks, Tamar
