About
I am looking for a house sitter for my two small dogs and home in Kensington. My house is a 2 bedroom ground floor apartment with a small courtyard. One bedroom has a double bed and the other has a king single bed.
It is really close to South Kensington station, not far from Kensington station and also well served by buses. There's a park across the road which is off lead when there's no sport. Kensington is a lovely community with a number of good restaurants and cafes within walking distance. There is one off street car park available.
I have a lot of houseplants that need weekly regular watering.
References essential and police check preferred.
I would prefer people to be able to come and meet the dogs before deciding to go ahead with the sit which means I will probably preference people who are currently in Victoria.
Pets & farm animals
I have two small dogs Winston and Alfie who love snuggles and to play. I would want the dogs to have company, be fed and walked. Winston is 7 and Alfie is 4! Winston is on medication but easily eats them in food.
My main concern is the care of my little dogs, so you must love dogs as they are inside 99% of the time. Both dogs sleep on the bed so you'd need to be ok with that.
House Tasks
Looking after the dogs - walking, feeding, medications spoiling etc!
