What do dog care services include?
Dog care services include a range of different services to maintain delivered by expert dog carers to ensure your precious pup’s well-being. This service can consist of grooming, sitting, training, or boarding your dog - they can be booked singly or in any appropriate combination. Â
Dog grooming
This is a service that’s not only about keeping or restoring your dog’s appearance. Grooming is also about your dog’s hygiene and overall health, especially if they are longhaired breeds. Most longhaired dogs eventually have problems with overgrown fur clumping up and accumulating dirt and other debris.Â
Matted hair must be removed as these clumps of fur are not only unsightly but can prove uncomfortable or painful for your dog. You can hire dog groomers to come to your home and provide your dog’s grooming needs; this can include thorough brushing of their fur, trimming overgrown hair and nails and bathing and drying your dog.Â
Dog sitting
When you need to be away from home and don’t have anyone to watch your pet, this is an essential service. This is especially helpful when you need to be away from home suddenly because you can book the service on short notice.Â
An expert dog sitter can go to your home to spend some time with your dog, feed them and clean up after they eat. Dog sitters can also keep them company. You may book this as overnight dog care, or as a daily service provided until your return.Â
Dog Boarding
Another option to ensure your dog is cared for an overnight while you’re away is to take them to a dog boarding facility. This is an excellent service to book when you prefer having your pup in a more social environment.Â
They can stay in a safe, warm and friendly environment with other animals and remain in the company of expert dog carers for longer. Some dog boarding facilities can give your dog their medications if they have issues or are seniors for an additional fee.Â
Dog training
When you want to modify your dog’s behaviour and make him more obedient and calm or perform tricks for entertainment, you can book a dog trainer. Dog trainers can teach your dog to respond to your verbal commands or do other more impressive tricks like standing and walking on their hind legs, fetching items, rollover or other tricks your dog trainer can teach them.Â

Dog Sitter/House Minder Needed!
$130
Rural View QLD, Australia
14th Jul 2021
G’day there, I’m looking for someone to mind my dog and my house from the 19th of July until the 27th of July. The minimum time frame I’m looking at is about 30 minutes per visit with you coming in the afternoon or evening (whenever suits you) and everything will be provided. Dustin (Dusty) is a young Cattle Dog X who is very friendly (some may say overly so) who will need a firm hand when you come to visit. He loves to play and loves to chill out by your side, give him a pat and a treat and he’ll be your best friend forever. He is up to date with all worming and vaccinations and will be neutered either this month or next. YOUR ROLE: • Water, feed and play with my young pup • Providing me daily updates via text • Watering my house plants as required • Collecting my mail • Making sure the property is secure • Bringing the bin in and out on Friday BENEFITS: Since I will be away most of the time you will be more than welcome to use anything in the house as if it were your own, that includes wifi, Netflix, Disney plus, Amazon prime, etc. You are always welcome to whatever is in the fridge/freezer and of course you will be paid! We will also need a meet and greet with Dusty as well. I am also looking for someone on a semi-permanent casual basis being done on a 8 day swing for the next two months, being both during weekdays and weekends.
