About this house sitting position in Greensborough

I am after somebody or a couple who would like to relax in Greensborough with my dog! I will be out of the state and need someone to live-in with him. Toohey is a beautiful boy who just does not do well on his own (I work from home so he's accustomed to that), but with considerate pre-walking and feeding he can be left alone for an hour or two at a time.

Toohey likes one or two walks a day at times when its not popular dog-walking hours. He is highly reactive to dogs no matter the size - all should be avoided for the most pleasant walking experience. Bonus points if you have experience with reactive dogs. There are lovely walking tracks around the river in my area. It is a hilly area and you will need to be able to walk up stairs without handrails to get into my unit.

The home is a modern 2 bedroom sunny brightly lit and warm unit. It is single story but there are stairs out the front. Open plan kitchen and lounge with a small deck and courtyard. It has a reverse cycle air conditioner in the living area and the bedrooms are carpeted. The unit is approx. 10 years old.

In the bathroom there is a bath tub and a separate shower, and the toilet is separate. The spare room has a double bed in it for you, and you will have good internet access during your stay. You will have access to multiple streaming services, a large TV and double reclining couch.

The road is one-way and reasonably quiet.

Your own vehicle is recommended and preferred for this sit - the supermarket is at least a 20 minute walk away with some hills involved. I am a 5-10 minute walk from the train station.

Reviews for Bronwyn (4 reviews)

5 stars stars
“Toohey is a lovely dog, very well trained, and sociable with humans.. Although he has a dog reactivity condition, we were able to carefully avoid other dogs whilst also enjoying walks and play. Bronwyn had prepared everything needed whilst she was away, and had made a clear, informative, info sheet to refer to. Very happy to care for Toohey again. ”

“This was our second housesit for Bronwyn. She is a lovely and considerate host. Toohey is great company and has a funny personality. He is well behaved and we found him easy to walk, I even took him for a run which we both enjoyed ”

“Bronwyn was a marvelous host. Her home is comfortable and had everything we needed during our stay. Local shops are 100 metres away and the Chinese shop has delicious take away. Toohey was a delight to care for and more of a companion really. He was well behaved, followed commands and had a great personality, we bonded with him instantly. Hoping to do more house sits for Bronwyn and Toohey in the future.”
