About
Hi, we would welcome enquiries from an experienced dog carer (or carers) who either work from home or are retired who would enjoy a beach side break in Point Lonsdale with 2 blonde bears for 2 weeks in August 2025.
ABOUT THE DOGS:
Marlo is a 14 & a half year old Groodle who is somewhat lame due to arthritis & various sporting injuries!
Despite this she still thinks she is a puppy & needs to be reminded she cannot do what she once did.
She weighs 22 kilos & needs to be picked up & lifted in & out of the car to go on small adventures to the beach for a swim or to the park for a short walk (she cannot walk big distances any longer).
We will leave you our car for this purpose for the duration of your stay.
She also requires twice daily medications - including Gabapentin, Panadol, CBD oil, Meloxicam & her Chinese herbs - but all are easy to administer with tasty cheese.
Barney is a 13 year old Cavoodle who is very low maintenance.
ABOUT THE HOUSE:
Our house is a recently renovated place with 2 bedrooms, a small study, one bathroom & open plan kitchen & living.
Has all the mod cons & is 800 metres from the beach & has wetlands at the end of our street - great for bird watching.
If you needed to stay a few days either before or after this housesit to fit in with other commitments, we would be amenable to that.
If you think this sounds like the gig for you, please get in touch ASAP. Cheers.
