About

I have a 2BR, 1 Bathroom art deco semi-detached house in Canterbury VIC. Very close to tram, train and shops/amenities. I have a lovely front garden, and back courtyard for enjoying the coming spring weather.
My dog Billie is a female staffy/husky, 5yrs old, with separation anxiety (I am retired so she is used to me being home). She is a very well behaved dog, enjoys ball play at the park, and will be very affectionate once she is used to you. My preference is for a mature housesitter, who is either retired, works from home or only works part-time. A police check/references also required. Must love dogs and be experienced with their care. Billie is allergic to bees and often has ear/skin issues. (The vet is a 5min drive away!)
I live in a beautiful green suburb, parks abound, and Maling Rd Village a 15min walk up the street, supermarkets etc a 10min walk. Tram to the city is a 3min walk away. A car will also be available and may be used (my daughter may need it at times).
Any potential sitter/s will need to visit at least once, maybe twice for mutual consideration of suitability.
Thanks and hope to meet you soon. Should this work out, I travel somewhere every year and will require ongoing sitters, so this may be a regular gig!

Pets & farm animals

Billie is a 5yr old female staffy/husky cross. She is an indoor dog mostly as she is allergic to bees. She suffers a little from anxiety (wheels/loud noises) so is not good at being walked. But she's very good in the car and is taken to the nearby park for exercise & play every morning & afternoon. Intermittent skin/ear issues may require a vet visit (5min drive). Other than that, being fed, watered and loved is all she asks.
