I live in a 3 bedroom house with a king bed, 1 double bed and 1 king single loft bed. You will have to look after Ziggy, a 2 y.o. bull arab cross, and 3 cats: Charlie, Tilly and little Coco. We live 300 metres from a dog park so our daily routine is for Ziggy to go there for 45 minutes at 7 am he gets to run around with the same doggy mates everyday. I walk him again in the evening and we go for long walks by the beach at the weekend. Ziggy is used to coming to my office most days so it would be tough for him to be left outside all day. The 3 cats go outside for the day. As it's a bit of work coordinating the 4 animals, I would prefer people who work from home or are retired and will be around more than they're out. I am also conscious that there are fireworks going off on NYE so I would like someone who can be in that night preferrably.

Wonderful and quiet housesit in Footscray, close to shops. Charlie and Tilly were very cuddly once they got to know you and easy to look after. Coco the kitten is a little shy but knows the routine re:feeding and using the litter tray. Ziggy is one of the most affectionate and sweetest dogs I've ever met. Very easy routine walking Ziggy as the dog park is super close by and he likes car rides so he often came along when I needed to pop out. Big backyard and if you're a remote worker/homebody ...

We fully enjoyed taking care of Fanny’s pets these days and will definitely do it again. The house is lovely, has a very nice backyard where one can have breakfast and the kitchen is well equipped as well. The neighbourhood is residential and has plenty of green areas nearby to take Ziggy out. She sent me all the information needed for the pet sitting and everything went smooth :) Thank you!!

Fanny's communication was great, and this was especially useful as it was a last minute sit for us. Ziggy is a very sweet boy, he loves nothing more than to cuddle up to you. The dog park is very close by and he loves it there as he's very playful with other dogs. The three cats all have very different personalities but they were all great to look after, and they all have their set routines. The pets got along well, we especially loved Ziggy and Coco's relationship, just so cute! The house is ... MORE
