Hilton, South Australia

About this house sitting position in Hilton

We live in a lovely 3brd home on a quiet street in Hilton, 10 minutes drive to the beach, and 10 minutes to the city, with good internet, a lovely kitchen, cosy loungeroom, with all the streaming services on the tv, woodfire and a leafy backyard.
We have 2 dogs - a 10yo German Shepherd & an 8yo Dachshund.
We are looking for someone/couple who would ideally be able to work from home, to stay & look after our dogs while we head away for a long weekend.

The dogs are cruisey for the most part and don't need much more than company and a gentle amble around the block.
They both have medication that they take with their meals. Lena the GSD is on meds for anxiety and arthritis, which she needs to be given manually down her throat, while Nanaimo the Dachshund is on meds for his skin allergies and he eats it straight from his bowl of food.
They are easy to walk, (easier with two people, but can be done with one) however Lena is quite reactive to other dogs, so we avoid contact when walking (cross the street etc). But for the time we're away, they'll be ok to just have short walks around the block, weather permitting. They both go slowly, and just want to sniff, so its very cruisey!
We work from home, so the dogs are very used to having our company most of the time, and they are both very much inside dogs. We leave them inside when we go out, and they are normally ok for around 5 hours, so ideally we'd be looking for someone who can work from home and be around for the majority of the time.
