Assignment Requirements

Located in Beaconsfield Victoria. Pet sitting for a 6 year old thoroughly spoiled, fun loving Jack Russell dog who needs a minimum of 1 walk every day (prefers 2 short walks) and general house sitting duties (collecting mail, watering plants etc). We also have a few goldfish in an outdoor pond. Would prefer single people only at this stage and someone who can be at home most of the time.

We are wanting to travel in September 2020 but that will depend on the status of COVID-19 and the Aust Govt travel advice so we may have to cancel at the last minute. Will only accept applications from genuine animal lovers and people who are able to go for a short walk each day (or lots of inside play if inclement weather). We will definitely need to meet in person so we can see if my dog likes you and vice versa!

Police check essential and non smokers only please. Clean and tidy, non smoking home. Close to public transport, freeway and shops. Would love to hear from you if you are interested but also anyone who could also pet sit on the occasional weekend so we could get away for a few days every so often. Thanks in advance.

Suburb Insights
Settling into Beaconsfield means embracing a rhythm marked by quiet mornings and open spaces. Your daily routine caring for pets will naturally include exploring the tree-lined streets and nearby reserves. Early walks with a dog often lead to the Beaconsfield Flora and Fauna Reserve, a peaceful spot where native birdsong accompanies your stroll, providing excellent stimulation for your charge before the day heats up. Weekends here unfold with a gentle invitation to explore. Sunday mornings typically draw residents to Akoonah Park Market, just a short drive, where you can pick up fresh produce or local crafts, a nice break after ensuring your pets are fed and settled. For more ambitious outings, the scenic walking trails around Cardinia Reservoir or a drive into the Dandenong Ranges offer rewarding views, perfect for a break once your house-sitting duties are complete. Daily errands feel less like a chore here. Beaconsfield's small commercial strip offers convenient spots for a coffee or essential supplies, maintaining that relaxed, local feel. The pace allows you to truly settle into the rhythm of the household you’re minding, offering a comfortable blend of semi-rural charm and accessibility, ensuring both you and your temporary companions enjoy a tranquil stay.
