About Gavin
We are lucky enough to have small stable of calm and gentle dogs who keep coming back to us, and prefer to only take on dogs that we have already established a relationship with.

If you are regular visitor and the app says we are unavailable, ask us anyway.

There’s two of us boys (14 & 15), Mum and Dad, and we’d like to establish a long-term relationship with a small number of dogs. Our back yard is surrounded by a solid 1.8m high fence, we have a pretty decent yard with tennis and soccer balls, and a large lounge that is big enough for all of us and two dogs. We live approx. 1000m from Mount Stromlo and across the road from a park, so will be happy to get outside with the dogs (on a lead!).

We have two small dogs of our own - one young, one old - a small Shitzu Maltese cross and a second Shitzu. Since being in Canberra we’ve had the regular company of many Spoodles and Cavoodles. We enjoy their company and the family would be happy to do it more often with well-mannered small or small-medium dogs. During most business days the house is quiet during school hours.

It is rare for us to have more than two visitors at once, and we won't put visitors together if we don't know them well.

This is a family interest, not a business, if we haven’t met you and your dog we won’t take him/her at short notice. Similarly, if your dog/s aren’t friendly, calm and well behaved, we’re not the dog sitters for you.
