About
Looking for someone to stay over Christmas to look after our 7 year old American Staffy, Gertie. Our dates are pretty flexible as we’re staying with family, so can work around your availability.
Gertie is so sweet and lovable, all she needs is one walk a day and a lot of cuddles! She loves people and would prefer if someone was home with her, however she's fine to be left for longer periods if need be.
We live in a quiet street in Reservoir in a 2 story house. We have a small backyard and bbq, and a comfy king size bed. No house maintenance required for the stay. Closest train station is Ruthven which is about a 10 minute walk. Edwards St shops are also about a 10 minute walk.
Gertie is strong and very food motivated, so we’re looking for someone with experience with bigger dogs so your walks will go smoothly. We have had other dog sitters for her and she’s totally fine with strangers (as long as you give her attention and cuddles!) We will leave detailed instructions and will be available on the phone for the duration of the time we’re away.
