About

I require a house sitter for 12 days over 23 December 2025 to 4 January 2026 (primarily to dog sit a french bulldog) at a charming 2 bedroom home located in Footscray VIC, just west of the Melbourne CBD. This is a great opportunity for those wanting a stay in the lead up to and through the Christmas and New Years! The house has all amenities including air conditioning, washing machine, dishwashing, coffee machine, furnishings and a fully kitted out kitchen. It is also well located with buses and the nearby train easily getting you into the city within roughly 20 minutes. Footscray is also very close to beaches and a stunning park (Footscray Park), and excellent restaurants and bars are just a walk away.

Only duties required of the home sitter (outside of cleaning up after one self) would be feeding and giving care to my frenchie Cooper, clearing the courtyard of leaves and dog poo, and taking bins in and out once a week. Cooper can be anxious when alone so some home time and a daily walk would be appreciated.

If you are interested or have any questions please reach out!
