About
Hello housesitters! We're looking for an active couple or person comfortable walking 2 labradors to dog & catsit for us in West Melbourne.
The pets:
>Watson is a 8.5 year old golden Labrador & Tui is a 3 year old Lab x. Both have lovely temperaments.
>George is a 18 year old female medium haired domestic cat
I usually work from home so it would be a bonus if someone was around during the day to keep them company to keep up their routine.
Ideally you'd be free to meet them beforehand.
The dates: From: Monday Nov 3rd (we leave around 1pm) To: Sunday Nov 9th (we arrive back around 5pm)
The place:
>The apartment is modern and close to Flagstaff Gardens & Queen Vic Markets
>Off street undercover parking is also available if required
What we love about our area:
We are fairly central, close to loads of cafes, pubs and restaurants. Close to two main train stations and trams nearby
The brief:
>Watson & Tui need either a big walk or a couple of little walks every day. They are medium sized dogs but generally well behaved. Happy to share our usual routes with you and there's a fenced dog park a 5-10 min walk away
>George is self sufficient and doesn't need any walks however she does love a little cuddle and brush each day.
Cheers & look forward to meeting you!

Pets & farm animals
Two lovely labs (labx) and an older cat that likes to keep to her self. (she has her own room lol)
Our dogs need two walks a day (approx 30mins+) and someone to be around more often than not- they just love having people near. Our cat is pretty independent but does love a good brush.
Medication/treatment required
Our cat George requires a pill to treat her thyroid condition, fairly easy just crushed up and then dusted on her food.
