Hi I have a house right in the heart of the lovely country town Castlemaine, walking distance to all shops and cafes and supermarket. I have little dogs and a cat. One of our dogs is quite timid, he can even be growly but is a toy size dog still he will need to be cared for by someone who is not put off or frightened by a dog that is wary of strangers. I realise this is a big ask and I am not sure we will be able to find someone suitable to take this on, I hope there is someone available out there who is capable and able to do this, he wouldn't need to be walked just fed and let outside to the back yard to the toilet etc. needs handling by someone confident and experienced. I am hoping to find someone who is really good with dogs who can look out for them make sure the littlest does not get picked on and supervise meals somewhat. I had organised a pet sitter but that has fallen through so now I am looking for someone willing and capable to step in so that my son and I can attend an edmund rice camp from 10 to 16 of July, it would be great if someone was willing and able to come up on the sunday the day before my son and I leave as I think that the dogs would cope better with an unfamiliar person in the house if I was here when you arrived and introduced you first Anyway we can discuss this prior and hopefully organise something agreeable to all concerned. Sorry to be so boring but we have lived a fairly sheltered not very social life so my little dogs are not really used to visitors. The town is a great tourist destination lots of art venues and our home is two bedroom with all amenities, gas heating hooked up to the NBN and comfortable enough. If you think you might be able to help please let me know. Thank you very much. Estelle.
