Hi, my name is Zelda. I live in Port Melbourne with my husband and son (16 years old), and our beloved Golden Retriever, Bailey. We, together with Bailey, have been caring for dogs in our area for the past 3 years. Bailey is 4 years old. Bailey is very friendly, gentle, affectionate and intelligent. She has an incredibly high social nature, thriving on human interaction and forming strong bonds with people and other dogs. I often get feedback that Bailey has provided a sense of calm to their dog while staying with us. We live in a house with a fully fenced backyard. There is more than enough space for your dog inside and outside. We live within walking distance of a big off-leash park and the Port Melbourne doggy beach. I am an outdoor person and enjoy taking them to the beach early mornings and to the park in the afternoons, where they can run, sniff, play off-lead and make new friends. Your doggy will receive plenty of cuddles and love in our home whilst maintaining your doggy's familiar routine and ensuring a secure and safe environment. My husband and I both work from home, so dogs are seldom left alone. We will keep you informed during your dog's stay and will send you plenty of photos and videos while you are away. My family and I look forward to meeting you and your furry baby. Please note: Your dog has to be socialised and vaccinated Your dog has to be neutered Your dog has to be house-trained Day-care - drop off after 8.30 and pickup by 6pm
