Assignment Requirements

Hello! I would love you to consider staying at my place and spending time with my three loving dogs.

I live in an apartment with two bedrooms, one bathroom and one carport. Southland shopping centre is nearby. I am away with work.

I am looking for a single person or couple who adore dogs and are happy to look after my three chihuahuas whilst I am away working.

Duties include

- Maintaining a safe environment for the dogs (not leaving gates open etc...)

- 20min walk once per day

- Feeding once per day (morning)

- refilling water bowls

- Lots of cuddles daily

- Transportation to the vet or administration of medicines if necessary (1x dog has one tablet every 3rd days for a minor health condition)

- picking up dog poo in yard

The dogs prefer to be inside and near you (sitting on their mat or on your lap). The dogs are toilet trained.

I am happy to cover these household bills during your stay... water, electricity (there is no gas).

There is a Queen bed for you with linen. There is a designated carport space for you to use.

I will be away Feb 19th - March 19th.

There is a large wrap-around courtyard with greenery. Perfect for those who enjoy outdoor space!

If you have a very small pet/s which are contained (aka fish, lizards, rabbit, mice etc...). I am happy for them to come with you.

Thank you for considering staying at my place with my dogs : )

(Note: The apartment is fully furnished (but, no washing machine). The photos are from the agent's listing of the property before I leased the apartment)

About the Area

Cheltenham Melbourne, Victoria
Suburb Insights
In Cheltenham, days unfold at a comfortable, residential rhythm, a noticeable shift from the city's hurried pace. Morning walks with your temporary canine companion often lead through the leafy paths of Linear Park, where local dog walkers exchange quiet nods, or down to the Mentone foreshore for a brisk seaside stroll before the crowds arrive, making pet exercise a pleasant daily ritual. For your own provisions, local grocery stores and smaller independent shops along Charman Road handle most essentials, avoiding the bustle of larger centres. A coffee from a neighbourhood cafe near the Cheltenham train station offers a quiet spot to observe the morning commute, largely families heading out for the day. Bus routes and the station provide straightforward access further afield, should you need to explore or run specific errands without the car. Evenings here invite a relaxed unwind; perhaps a final walk through Cheltenham Park as dusk settles, or a quiet drink at a local pub where familiar faces gather. The proximity to the bay means a refreshing dip is never far, an easy escape during warmer afternoons after the pets are settled. Living within these streets, you’ll find a genuine, unpretentious neighbourhood, where people appreciate their local amenities and the calm that defines this part of the Bayside.
