About this house sitting position in Drummoyne
We are looking for someone reliable with a great track record of house sitting a dog.
My partner and I are off to Singapore & Bangkok for 10 days over the Christmas. George is a small dog (a mix between Maltese, shih-tzu, Pomeranian and poodle) but don't be fooled by his tiny size, he's full of energy! We both work full time so George is used to being by himself all day, hes not particularly needy and is very good at making his own fun. However he requires at least a 30 minute brisk walk every day before work (we usually take him sometime between 5am and 6.30am) and then a second evening walk 2 or 3 times per week. And of course he loves a long walk at the weekend. When he's tired, there's nothing George loves more than a good cuddle on the couch. George is 2 years old, so he can still be a very cheeky puppy sometimes (his favourite activity is pulling all the toilet paper off the roll and tearing it to shreds). George can sit on command and walk politely on a lead. We are still working on his recall (the park is so much more fun than going home!) but he never wanders too far from your side, however off-leash sessions are best left for fenced dog parks. We would also require someone who has some basic knowledge of caring for pot plants, as our balcony plants would also need looking after. We live in a fairly small 1 bedroom apartment in Drummoyne just off Victoria Road. The building is only a couple of years old, but unfortunately we are currently having to deal with remedial building works. By Christmas the works will be be mostly completed, however there may be some building noise during the day (starting at 8am and finishing by 3pm) but obviously not during on the public holidays. We're less than a 10 minute walk to Drummoyne oval, with great restaurants, a huge Harris Farm and Birkenhead Point nearby. It's very easy to get to the city, the ferry wharf is just a short stroll away, and express buses from Victoria Road will get you to town hall in just over 20 minutes. Read more...
