Altona, Victoria

About this house sitting position in Altona

Single Storey Weatherboard family home, need a sitter for 4 nights during late Jan 2026 school holidays to mind the house, garden, 1 dog, and 1 cat.

The cat (Luna) is mainly indoors, and we have a medium size Labrador/Cocker Spaniel cross dog (Harry).

Harry is well trained and well behaved. Loves his walks, play, and cuddles. He will need at least 2 30-minute 'on-leash' walks per day (morning and evening) ... an extra walk during the day is also handy.

House includes (in addition to amenities checked):

-3 Bedrooms (Master with it's own A/C)
-1 Office
-2 Bathrooms
- Independant workshop to the rear with bench saw, lathe, tools etc.

There is off-street/driveway parking available.

Being in Altona, Victoria we have access to Melbourne CBD within 15-20 minutes drive (or 25 minutes by train) ... and only 15-20 minute walk to the local beach/shopping centres.

It's a great and quiet place.

We will be leaving early morning (9.00am-ish on the 17th), and arriving late (7.30pm-ish on the 21st).

Not much for the sitter/s to do except enjoy the house, and keep our animals company.

Families would be welcome to housesit. There is plenty of room and Harry loves company.

Harry is very human and dog friendly (all shapes and sizes for either species!) Read more...
