About this house sitting position in Marrickville

Hi, I'm looking for a wonderful person to take care of my senior dog and home while I'm up in QLD.
I've just moved to a new place last week, my boy Ari is settling in well but would feel so much more confident knowing he is being watched and cared for while I'm away.

Ari is a nearly 15-year-old Staffy X and has been my loyal companion through multiple rental homes. He is very well-behaved, fully house-trained, and extremely quiet-he rarely barks, even when I’m not home. In fact, my current neighbours often mention how they barely notice him, which is a testament to his calm nature and good manners.
At his age, Ari leads a very relaxed lifestyle. He spends most of his day sleeping and he loves his walks. His eyesight isn't what it used to be so he needs a responsible individual who can keep watch for any unexpected trips/falls on his walk and help walking up and down stairs. He doesn't need to be watched all hours of the day, I go to work daily business hours, but he just needs company and assistance on walks.

I've just moved to a new apartment last week so apologies for using empty home images.
This apartment is a 2-bedroom security unit with bathroom (shower and bath), internal laundry with washing machine as well as decent sized kitchen with dishwasher and loungeroom with aircon/heater.
located just minutes from Dulwich Hill train station and light rail (train line is under construction for new metro line but has free bus to Sydenham station) offering convenient access to transport, shops, and local amenities.

Fantastic location and wonderful neighbourhood. Unit block is full of friendly neighbours and generally very quiet.

Reviews for Tessa

5 stars stars
“Tessa is incredibly welcoming, such a lovely and kind person. She was super helpful and always responded quickly whenever I had a question. She even prepared everything Ari needs on a table with clear sticky notes, which made things really easy.
Ari is an absolute sweetheart! He’s gentle, full of personality, and gets so excited for his walks. He’s very easy to care for and a real joy to be around.
Tessa’s home is warm and cozy, with a bus stop just a minute’s walk away that connects you to the train station and all directions.
I had such a wonderful time with Ari and would gladly come back anytime. I highly recommend Tessa’s place and would come back anytime!
