Requirements

Ours is a 3 bedroom, spacious home, with living, dining and open plan kitchen. It’s an old yet renovated home with new, well maintained, clean and tidy spaces and facilities. We have a wide frontage with a circular driveway and lawn to the side and a verandah at the back.

Our dog Leela is are main focus and why we are looking for a home sitter: she’s a sweet and gentle and goofy girl who loves company. She’’s very affectionate and would need at least one long walk and play with ball in our garden (it’s fine that the lawn gets damaged a bit when she goes tearing through it). We give her food twice in the day: We can provide more information.

Leela is allowed everywhere in the house except the master bedroom. We try to keep her out of the kitchen though as she sheds quite a bit of fur. She’s allowed on sofas and she loves a good cuddle. She’s a mixed breed, we are not sure of her exact breed as she’s a rescue. She appears to be a kelpie collie mix. While Leela is very friendly with humans, she may get intimidated by other dogs depending on their temperament, size. she doesn’t do well with dogs who come at her face too much. But she does get along very well with other gentle dogs her size. Leela is a medium size approx 20kgs. We try to avoid going to areas where there are lots of dogs, so it’s best to always keep her on lead. And let her loose only in our garden. Leela doesn’t like to be alone for long periods. The most she can tolerate is 2 hours and maybe 3 hours max. She will sit outside behind the gate enclosing the lawn and watch the road waiting for you the whole time. You can confine her to indoors on hot days or rainy days by closing the doggy door.

Other than that our lawn needs some attention particularly watering on very hot days and some mowing if possible.
