Assignment Requirements

I live in Morayfield, [north of Brisbane]. It's a 4-bedroom house with ducted air-con throughout. Only 2 rooms are used as bedrooms. The spare room (yours) has a queen-sized bed, side table, chest of drawers and some wardrobe space. It's a tight fit, but it works. There's a TV room and an open plan living-dining-kitchen. I have a very small yard that is completely paved (no mowing, yah!!), and the neighbours take care of mowing the footpath. There are a few pot plants and raised garden beds that need to be watered. I've got good internet access with unlimited data you are most welcome to use. You don't need to be home all the time, but I would prefer someone who wasn't at a full-time job as my dogs are not used to being alone all the time. They are happy to stay on their own if you want to take a day trip, also great in the car if you're interested in taking them with you.

I have 2 small dogs. Toffee is a 5-year-old Cavoodle. He's love on legs, quite smart but plays dumb very well. He has a proven track record of stealing things and chewing/eating them. Luckily shoes are not on his list, but clothes or other fabric certainly is. Fudge is a Shitzu-Pekinese cross with a bad attitude and a face only his mother could love. He lost an eye earlier this year due to an ulcer on it but has adapted to life as a pirate very well. He sometimes has issues with newcomers, especially men, but once he knows you, he's a really sweet boy but defiantly not a lap-sitter, although he convinced our last dog sitter to let him sleep on the bed. We have recently had some behaviour issues so I'm seeing a behavourist for them. There will be a training schedule, if you could keep that up it would be great. They are on a specific single protein diet. They are fed twice a day. Apart from love and pats they don't need much else.

About the Area

Morayfield Brisbane, Queensland
Suburb Insights
Morayfield offers a comfortable, unhurried pace for your house-sitting stint. Mornings here often begin with local birdsong, a gentle invitation to take your canine companion for a stroll. Follow footpath networks through residential streets, or head towards the Caboolture River's quieter banks near Centenary Lakes Park. This area provides ample green space for pets to stretch their legs. After their walk, grab a coffee from a local bakery along Morayfield Road, a casual start to the day that quickly becomes routine. For provisions, the central Morayfield Shopping Centre covers most needs, making errands efficient. Weekends might involve a drive to the Caboolture Country Markets for fresh produce and local crafts, offering a taste of regional life. These low-key outings can accommodate a well-behaved pet in the car, or you might find a quiet corner after returning home. Consider dinner from one of the casual eateries; perhaps try the local Chinese takeaway or a pub meal at The Darts Hotel, a straightforward, no-fuss experience. Venturing beyond the immediate neighbourhood is straightforward; Morayfield Station provides train links south to Brisbane or north towards the Sunshine Coast, ideal for an independent day trip. However, many find contentment exploring Morayfield's quiet pockets, perhaps reading a book under a tree at a local park or simply enjoying the domestic rhythm of a suburban home. The days here settle into a comfortable pattern, making it easy to establish routines for feeding, walks, and being present in someone else’s cherished space.
