Assignment Requirements

We have a two bedroom, one bedroom home located 10 minutes from Bonnie Doon township and Lake Eildon and just 20 minutes to Mansfield and 30 minutes to Alexandra and Euroa. Perfectly located for a High Country Summer. House sleeps 4 people - but could fit more if children want to bunk up. The house sitter will need to look after one gentle German Shepherd called Gracie and one housecat called Bubbles (and maybe some chickens). Can make full use of our kitchen garden which will be pumping out yummy vegetables. Occasional garden watering but no gardening or farm maintenance required.

Suburb Insights

Mornings in Bonnie Doon unfold with the lake’s serene presence, dictating a rhythm of calm. Your house-sitting days will center on outdoor life; for canine companions, this means ample space for exploration. Early walks often lead to the Lake Eildon foreshore, providing dogs expansive room to stretch their legs, sniff the bush, or enjoy a supervised paddle, perfectly suiting active pets and their need for routine exercise. For daily essentials, a scenic drive to Mansfield is necessary; Bonnie Doon's local amenities are few, preserving its tranquil charm. This trip is an opportunity to gather provisions and perhaps enjoy a quiet coffee before returning to the peaceful home. Such excursions become part of a comfortable routine, balancing your errands with the uninterrupted care of the property and pets. Weekends invite longer explorations. The Great Victorian Rail Trail runs close by, offering gentle bike rides or lengthy walks through the bushland, easily manageable with an energetic pet. If owner instructions permit, accessing Lake Eildon for a spot of fishing or a calm boat trip provides a different perspective of the area, all while ensuring the pets receive their regular outdoor time. Evenings here bring genuine darkness, far from city lights, where star-filled skies offer a peaceful conclusion to days spent embracing the region’s natural beauty and your caretaking duties.
