Active WFH/Retired Sitters Wanted for 2 Labs – West Melbourne (July 10–26)

The Dates:
Friday, July 10th to Sunday, July 26th, 2026.

The Brief:
We are looking for an active couple or individual to dog-sit for us in West Melbourne. We are specifically looking for sitters who are retired or work from home, as our dogs are used to having company during the day and we want to keep their routine consistent.

The Pets:
Watson: 9-year-old Golden Labrador.
Tui: 4-year-old Lab cross.
- Both have lovely temperaments and are generally well-behaved. They need to be walked twice a day (or one very large walk); they are medium-sized and enjoy their exercise. We’re happy to share our usual routes, and there is a fenced dog park just a 5–10 minute walk away.

The Place & Expectations:
- Our modern apartment is perfectly positioned near Flagstaff Gardens and Queen Vic Market. We are central to fantastic cafes, pubs, and restaurants, with trams and two main train stations nearby.
Parking: Secure off-street undercover parking is available.
Home Care: We keep a clean, quiet home and ask the same of our sitters (strictly no parties). Tasks are minimal: please water the plants/garden, check the mail, and keep the space tidy.

Cheers & look forward to hearing from you!
Travis + Nikki
