What do dog sitting services include?

Airtasker’s dog sitting service can be straightforward. While the specifics may vary from Tasker to Tasker, and depend on your pet’s own needs, here are the things that you can expect a dog sitter to do.

Puppy collection and delivery

Your puppy sitter can arrange for the collection and delivery of your puppy. A puppy sitter or pet transport service can collect your pup. Then, when you get home from your trip, the sitter can bring your pup back to you. 

Feeding & administering medication

Your puppy sitter relies on your detailed instructions for feeding your pet, providing enough water, and giving them their vitamins and medicine (if applicable). Make sure you have enough supplies before you leave, whether it’s kibble, canned food, home-cooked meals, or raw food. Make sure your sitter is familiar with food prep and portioning. Be clear about what food you allow your dog to eat, and what they’re allergic to.

If your pet is on a special diet, make sure your sitter is informed. The same goes for medication - prepare written instructions and review them verbally before you leave. Don’t just rely on a note on the counter! Good preparation is essential to making sure your pet stays healthy even while you’re out.

Cleaning up pet mess

Puppy sitting also includes cleaning up a pet’s mess. Let your Tasker know your dog’s signal for when they need to “go”, your pet’s usual spot, and how you usually handle dog mess. Make sure your sitter also knows where the cleaning supplies are kept, in case your dog can’t make it to their spot.

Exercise and playtime

Your pet sitter also makes sure your pet/s get enough exercise, playtime, and even training while you’re out. Let your puppy sitter know if they can take your dog on walks while you’re out, and how often this needs to be done. If you have any rules for walks, such as cleaning the paws afterwards or avoiding a rowdy neighbour dog, make sure you tell your sitter about these. Your puppy sitter also makes sure that your pet stays secure at all times, whether inside or outside your property.

Pets, cuddles, and TLC

Your pet will need all the love they can get while you’re out for a friend’s wedding or week-long business trip. Your dog sitter makes sure your pooch gets petted and cuddled regularly. Let your puppy sitter know if they can give your pet treats, and how many they can have per day. Ideally, your pet and the Tasker have met prior to the puppy sitting appointment, so your Tasker will be able to pet and scratch your dog in all their favourite spots.

Puppy grooming

Grooming may include brushing your puppy’s fur and trimming their nails. To avoid overwhelming your puppy, the puppy sitter may brush your puppy’s coat a few minutes at a time throughout the day. If you want to come home to a fresh-smelling pup and a clean house, go ahead and book a sofa cleaning or house cleaning service on our platform as well!

Updates on your pet

If pet updates are part of your Tasker’s arrangement, you can expect an email or message from your sitter on a regular basis. In case of emergencies, you can have your sitter call a relative in the area or your vet - just to make sure your dog is alright.

I’m getting married! Yay! But there’s a bit of a stress with getting my doggos taken care of while we’re away, preferably in our home. We will be gone from December 12-20 and we’re looking for someone reliable that has experience with large dogs (a German shepherd and a Labrador), and any experience with pet rats is also desirable! Thanks 😊 - Due date: Needs to be done on Tuesday, 12 December 2023

Sarah was absolutely phenomenal. I usually am so anxious leaving my pets with anyone, but going away for a little over a week and I didn’t have a worry in the world. Sarah was so reassuring, no ask was too much, and she left our house in an immaculate state. I honestly couldn’t give Sarah enough praise - 5 stars isn’t enough. Thanks again for everything Sarah! We will be in touch 😊🥰

I need someone to look after my dog while I am away on holidays. He is a 11yr old mini fox terrier. His favourite activity is snuggling on the couch but he also enjoys a bit of fetch and dog parks. He is house toilet trained and will wait by the door/stairs if he needs to pee/poo. He has been known to squeeze under fences in his younger days so a secure perimeter is essential, although he hasn't escaped for a few years now. - Due date: Needs to be done on Sunday, 3 April 2022

I have a staffy cross dog named Chimichanga that needs looking after at your home for three days and two nights (from Wednesday 17th till Friday 19th). He is a very chill dog who will most likely sleep all day. He is a rescue dog so can be a bit sketchy around young children and does not like dominant dogs. He would be well suited for someone who will be at home most of the day, he won't demand your attention he just likes your company! We can provide all food, bedding and toys. He just needs a friend :)

Great communication, very caring of my dog, very flexible with timing.

Indooroopilly QLD 4068, Australia

15th Mar 2021

Hi everyone. I would need a reliable person who would be able to look after my doggie occasionally when I am on my uni placement (usually Tuesdays) or away. My girl is one year old staffy. She is super cute, lovely and professionally trained. However, she is still super excited, loves company and loves to play. She can stay at home by herself as she never barks or destroys anything, but I just do not want her to be alone all day. Most of day cares start either too late (I need someone from about 6 am) or are too far from me. Please, if you are able to help, send me your location, rates and whatever else :) My dog is people and dog friendly 🥰 Thank you.
