About this house sitting position in Maroochydore

Hi there,
Would you be interested in having a chat about caring for our wonderful 5.5 year old fox red Labrador Django and our home for four weeks in January?

Django is a big happy boy with a very big personality. He is a house dog and loves people attention as we mostly work from home. He loves to play, is super smart (knows all his toys by name), loves a cuddle, and will follow you around the house. He is pretty chilled most of the time as long as he gets a walk and play time.

An absolute must is that he gets at least one decent walk a day as this is the routine he's had his whole life, mornings are ideal.

We need someone who is very comfortable walking big dogs, is fit, active and loves getting out walking on a routine daily basis. He walks very well on his Halti, but can be a bit of a grump/reactive with other dogs so please only reach out if you are an experienced and confident large dog walker.

We live in a lovely clean and tidy 4 bed, 2 bath home on a very quiet street within walking distance of Cotton Tree and Maroochydore beach. There's space for off-road parking and a caravan if required. We have wifi available, a big well equipped kitchen, lovely peaceful patio area, two lounge rooms (one with a very big tv perfect for movie watching), ceiling fans and large windows, air con in the main living area, and a lovely peaceful landscaped garden. We have pot plants that will need watering, but that's about it really. Our main priority is knowing our boy is well cared for and the house is kept clean and tidy.

Please only apply for this house sit if you have:
- references/previous reviews to validate your experience as a sitter;
- verified id;
- experience caring for, and walking big dogs;
- a genuine interest and passion for dogs and dog walking, and can commit to sticking with his routine;
- no children; and
- no pets.

We will arrange a video call in the first instance; and if you are up this way at the moment, you could also pop round for a chat...

We are keen to get someone reliable and trustworthy locked in soon for peace of mind as we have our flights booked.

Thanks in advance
Jen, Phil and Django

Reviews for Jen

5 stars stars
“Our stay at Jen & Phil’s was fantastic. From the beginning, communication with Jen was easy, proactive and instructions very clear. The house is extremely well setup for housesitting and feels more like an airbnb: a full room, closet, bathroom and pantry was left vacant for us. It was very easy to feel at home there. Additionally, the patio/yard is incredibly easy to care for (no grass to cut).

While the house is great, the best part of this sit is Django, the most beautiful, smart and affectionate dog. Don’t let his big bark fool you, he will kiss you to death. We loved spending time with him, with lots of morning/evening cuddles, impressive football skills and loads of walks around a beautiful promenade and beach. We will definitely miss him. Thank you both for such a wonderful stay!
