8 year old Bruce, staffy x - Velcro dog! not good with other dogs so needs careful walking or private dog park runs. But he absolutely loves people…

Important info

Bruce is a bit of a velcro boy and we'd prefer he isn't left for more than a few hours at a time.

We thoroughly enjoyed looking after Bruce and would happily house sit for him again. Bruce is an absolute joy to care for. He loves being around people and has such an affectionate, gentle nature. The homeowners were fantastic to communicate with, were very welcoming and they provided detailed instructions. Thank you for trusting us with Bruce and your home.
Was a pleasure to look after Bruce for Liz and Rusty. The house was very comfortable and Bruce was very easy going and great to look after. Would happily house sit again for them 😊
We had such a great time house sitting for Lizzie and Rusty. Their home is lovely, and in such a great location- not far from Belair National Park and Crafers. Bruce was amazing to look after. He’s such a sweet dog who loves attention and a good back scratch. He was so iconic that we had to name our new X-Trail after him… Lizzie and Rusty are great people and were so helpful and kind to us. 11/10 house sitting experience. Thanks again! :)
