Reservoir, Victoria

About this house sitting position in Reservoir

Our gorgeous little dog and house need some love and care while my partner and I gallivant around Europe for almost three months.

We love our little weatherboard, three-bedroom pad located in Melbourne's cool northern suburbs. Our home is about five minutes from Ruthven train station that zooms you into the city in about 30 minutes. The same line will take you to Preston, Thornbury, Northcote, and Collingwood. We are also pretty close to Coburg and Brunswick.

We are close to the railway, there's a park close-by, and local shops about 1km walk away or more shops in Reservoir or Northland, Preston.

We are happy to negotiate the use of a car to the right sitter if required. Brian loves car travel and often goes with us on outings to the shops or nearby walks at the park, Darebin Creek Trail, Edwardes Lake Park, and lots of other places.
