Assignment Requirements

We are looking for someone/couple/family to pet sit at our lovely 3 bedroom home (1 double, 2 singles and another double daybed in the 2nd lounge room downstairs) in Manly West. It’s very modern and newly decorated and has a fabulous pool and trampoline in the garden and a decent size lawn (612m block). We have a large deck which is perfect for catching the bay breezes and overlooks our beautiful, very private garden.

We have a 6 month old puppy called Peanut who loves attention and cuddles on the couch! She gets one big or two small walks a day and is a very easy going girl who loves to play with other dogs and humans! She is still a puppy so doesn’t have perfect manners just yet but she doesn’t beg for food and doesn’t bark much.

We also have 2 Guinea Pigs and 2 chickens which are very easy to look after! The piggies just have to be moved between their daytime run on the lawn and their more secure night time cage but they do also enjoy cuddles if Peanut isn’t around (she thinks they look like chew toys!).

We’ve a few plants that might need a bit of water too but nothing too crazy!

If you don’t know Manly, it’s a beautiful suburb with a very relaxed seaside town vibe. Wonderful cafes, restaurants, walks along the esplanade, there’s the Whale Park and the Wading Pool which are great for the kids (and free!) and lots of good dog parks and a dog beach! If you have any questions about the house or the area or pets please feel free to ask me questions. We’ve never done this before so not entirely sure what to write!

About the Area

MANLY WEST Brisbane, Queensland
Suburb Insights
Manly West provides a calm suburban base, perfect for establishing a comfortable routine with your temporary companions. Early morning dog walks often lead towards Bayside Park, or a short drive opens up the expansive Wynnum Esplanade, offering long stretches of paved path beside the bay – a cooling option on warmer days. Grocery essentials are easily found at Mayfair on Manly, a brief car trip away, ensuring kitchen stocks remain full without extended travel. For a broader selection, Wynnum Plaza is also conveniently close. Public transport options connect the area effectively. Manly train station, on the Cleveland line, offers direct city access, useful for solo excursions or if you need to travel further afield for specific pet supplies. Several bus routes traverse the suburb, connecting to key shopping areas and the Manly Harbour Village, where you’ll find several cafes with outdoor seating, many welcoming to well-behaved dogs. This blend of quiet residential streets and accessible bay activities makes daily living straightforward. Remember to check local council regulations for off-leash areas and keep pets hydrated, especially when exploring the more open bayfront paths.
