Cheryl

Hi dog lovers!

We have 6:
Bernese mountain Dog, Golden Retriever, Cavoodle, Old English Sheepdog X, Yorkie, Maltese Shitzu

They're all very chill and love both people and other dogs. Untested with cats and birds etc.

They love being close to people and as we work from home, have never been left for more than 3-4 hours so we would need someone who can be home more often than not.

We have a stubborn Yorkie who may not yet be completely toilet trained yet so he does need people close.

They all sleep in a crate at night and love the beach, the dog park (though we are don't bring the tiny ones). Walks from 30mins to an hour, throwing a ball in the large yard (we live on an acre) would be fine. Oh and they love playing hide and seek with treats :)

Our house has 5 bedrooms (2 available to use), a large open plan lounge area, Butler pantry, laundry and theatre room. Ducted aircon and heating, backup Tesla battery for power outages and timed irrigation so you don't have to worry about the garden.

We also have subscriptions to pretty much every channel Disney Plus, Netflix and Amazon so you can lock yourselves in the theatre room with a new 85 inch tv and watch anything your heart desires :)

We are located a 15min walk to shops and cafes. Bus stop around the corner and train station a 2 min drive away (or 5 min bus ride)

We would prefer a non smoking couple, or single with older kids (as 6 dogs means alot of walks). I unfortunately have to say no to other dogs for now as our youngest is still a bit nervy of bigger dogs, which we are training him on. Kids above 10 years old are also ideal as the pack can be a bit boisterous.

We always hire a cleaner to come just before we leave so the house is left in the best possible condition before you arrive. We just ask that it is returned the same way.

Look forward to meeting you!

An outstanding 2 weeks looking after the best dogs ever. Cheryl was so accommodating and had great communication throughout our stay. The house and garden was stunning and I couldn’t have asked for better. Cheryl has made a helpful guide about each of the dogs which came In handy! The dogs were the friendliest and most well behaved pups ever. Would 100% house sit again!

Everest, the leader, was a big softie, with a beguiling smile too hard to resist. Little Mouse with the big ears was a continual LOL…he really held his own with everyone, & had the cutest voice. Sushi is the youngest & busiest with a few projects running concurrently, & Moo, who was just like the little ones but with long legs, was the opposite & very chill. Butter’s eyes will melt you - what a placid, lovely dog. Last but not least, Cricket was the soft toy of your childhood come alive with ... MORE

Will never get tired of looking after Cheryl and Tim’s beautiful dogs and home. Their dogs really are a part of the family and so wonderfully trained that it makes looking after them very easy and extremely rewarding (how can you not feel amazing after multiple doggo cuddles a day). Thanks again, Cheryl. Can’t wait for next time :)

Cheryl and Tim are a really nice couple. We were very comfortable in their lovely house, looking after dogs x 6! The dogs are absolutely wonderful, very well behaved. We loved every minute looking after them. 5 stars all round!

If you’re a dog lover, this will be your heaven! Cheryl and her family have raised the most well behaved dogs full of character and we had such a lovely time with each of them. They have such a great set up for all the dogs and a well detailed routine to help make a sit as easy as possible. The home is incredibly comfortable and in an amazing location for short drives into beautiful areas, as well as lovely walks for the dogs. Thanks so much, Cheryl. We can’t wait to look after Everest, Butter, ... MORE

Had a wonderful time with these 5 gorgeous dogs. Such fun getting to know their individual personalities . Really well-trained dogs with an excellent routine in place. Lovely, relaxed family with excellent communication and clear instructions left for us, which we really appreciated. Cheryl and her family made us feel very welcomed. Great house with every amenity. We will miss all our doggy cuddles ! Thankyou for the opportuity
