Dog & House Sitter Wanted – Carrum Downs / Mornington Peninsula

We’re looking for a reliable and caring house sitter to look after our home and our friendly 18-month-old Labrador, Bodhi, from 2 September to 3 October.

Bodhi is affectionate, energetic and thrives on routine. He loves human company and will need two good walks each day (1.5–2 hours total), along with feeding, playtime and companionship. He’s a social, easygoing dog and great company, so this would suit someone who enjoys dogs and an active daily routine.

About the home & location:
Our home is a spacious double-storey, 4-bedroom house in a quiet part of Carrum Downs. You’ll have a comfortable guest bedroom and your own bathroom/toilet, plus access to a secure, enclosed garden.

We’re well located to explore the Mornington Peninsula, with beaches, parks, cafes and wineries all within easy reach, and good access into Melbourne.

About Bodhi:
Friendly, well-socialised young Labrador
Needs 1.5–2 hours of walking daily
Can be left for up to 5–6 hours
Sleeps in his crate at night
Enjoys fetch and being around people
Walks well on lead (can pull if excited)
Typical Lab – will chew socks/shoes if left out
Relaxed and affectionate once exercised

We’re looking for someone who is:
Responsible, tidy and trustworthy
Experienced with dogs (especially larger breeds)
Able to provide daily exercise, care and company
Happy to provide references

Ideally suited to someone who is home a good part of the day and happy to keep Bodhi’s routine consistent.

If this sounds like a good fit, please get in touch with a bit about yourself, your experience with pets, and any references.

A great opportunity to enjoy a relaxed stay on the Mornington Peninsula with a lovely dog for company. Read more...
