In Perth. Have a dog that wee’s on the lawn once in a while. Other people walk their dogs past the house and they could be wee’ing on it too (their dogs ;P).
I’ve been apply Seasol every couple of weeks, that’s it for fertilizers.
Watering 3-5 days a week.
This is what it looks like when I mow it with the lowest setting on my mower 🙁
Some areas don’t grow as fast as others.

dont water 5 days a week. normal is 2-3 days tops. Ideally (depends on your heaT*), you water 2x a week for 1/2-3/4″ of water per day. so roughly 1-1.5″ water per week. but daily watering is bad for a lawn.
more fertilizer. you can apply this at different rates and frequencies. as a rough example though, a 24-0-11 can be applied to roughly 5-6k of turf. this applies roughly 2lbs of N. you can do half of this monthly, or quarter of this rate bi-weekly.
probably worth it to use something like a weed and feed if this is all you are doing. not sure what is legal or available in your country though
