About this house sitting position in Leopold

We are seeking care for our 8 year old Labrador, Amanda and 3 year old Golden Retriever, Julie from 9th September to 31st October 2025. We would appreciate the commencement of care a day or two earlier to ensure a good handover.

Our girls are in good health and active. They need, at minimum, two half hour walks each day. They would love to go to the dog beach, dog park and out with you to have coffee etc. Both dogs have come from a formal training environment. Amanda is a reclassified Guide Dog who wasn’t suited for the work. Julie is a released Seeing Eye Dog as she has a cataract in her left eye. The cataract is presently not causing any sight or health problems and it is checked annually by her animal ophthalmologist. No medication to be administered.

Both dogs are well behaved. They are allowed on furniture and specifically like to sleep on the bed with you. There are plenty of doggie beds strewn around the house and they enjoy those also. Our dogs are very social and cannot be left alone overnight or long periods of time.

We live at the gateway of the Bellarine Peninsula in Leopold. It is a short drive or bus to many shops, activities, wineries, restaurants, local sanctuary and ocean walks. Public transport is also available into Geelong. It is about a 20 minute drive to Queenscliffe, Ocean Grove and other seaside locations. Drive to Geelong city centre in 15 minutes or bus in 30 minutes.

You will be staying in a 3 bedroom house with all the amenities you will need.

There is a grass backyard and some fruit trees needing low maintenance. We are happy to continue providing our indoor house cleaner once per fortnight for 3 hours.

The girls have 2 meals each day with the evening meal containing some additional nutrients.

We are heading overseas but will be contactable and would love it if you could check in with us occasionally. Our dogs are extremely precious to us. We would like to meet with you prior to appointment – video is fine.
