Judith did an absolutely amazing job looking after our 6 year old cattle dog. We had a lot of anxieties leaving our dog for the first time but she did everything to assure us that our dog will be safe. Judith was extremely accomodating to all our last minute changes and for that we are extremely grateful! Thanks again Judith!

My dog had a wonderful time with Judith, she was so well looked after. Happily recommend her to anyone and would definitely send her back to stay with her again if I need to. She was so lovely and thoughtful, always sending me updates of how Bonnie was adjusting to staying with her.

What does professional pet sitting include?

Pet sitters will give your pets the practical care they need, as well as love and attention they crave while you’re away. Professional pet sitters are experienced in looking after dogs, cats, birds, chickens, ducks, snakes, rats, mice, guinea pigs, fish, horses, cows, and many more animals. Some ways your pet sitter may help are:

Feeding your pet

Most pets need feeding once or twice a day, plus water checked, changed, and topped up. Your professional pet sitter will make sure your pet has fresh, clean water and that they’re fed on schedule with the right quantities and foods, as specified in your instructions. If your pet has special dietary requirements, you can let your pet sitter know so they can accommodate them. 

Exercising your pet

While some pets get enough exercise from running around their enclosure or yard area, if you have a dog, they’ll probably need regular walks. Whether it’s three times a day or just a couple of times a week, your pet sitter can take your dog for a walk so they stay fit, happy, and healthy while you’re on holidays or working late in the office.

Cleaning up

Don’t come home from your holiday or a long day at work to a messy house, yard, or cage. Your pet sitter can take care of all kinds of pet messes so you don’t have to stress. They’ll pick up dog droppings and dispose of them in the bin, change kitty litter as needed, and replace the newspaper in the bottom of your bird or reptile enclosure. Plus, if you’re on an extended holiday, your pet sitter can help arrange pet grooming services like dog grooming and dog washing.

Catering to special requirements

Do you have a dog with diabetes or cat with cataracts? If your pet needs extra special attention, let your professional pet sitter know. Most pet sitters are experienced in pets with special needs, including daily injections, specific diets, giving oral medications, and more. They can even help arrange visits to the vet if your pet needs some extra care.

We are looking for care for our baby girl Malibu - a cavalier x cocker spaniel. We are 2 student doctors who require the following care for our girl: 🌺 Tuesdays: 8am - 1pm 🌺 Thursdays: 8am - 5pm 🌺 The occasional Wednesday afternoon and exam days (we will give you lots of warning in advance) She’s a very chilled out girl, fully toilet trained and independent when someone is around - however bonus points for helping us train her with separation (as future docs we need her to learn how to be okay on her own!)! No other duties required - perfect for a student or someone working from home. We would ideally love a vet or vet nursing student, but are open to anyone with experience and will love her as much as we do. Police check required.

Hello, I have a 3 year old cat that I need someone to look after indefinitely. I am currently moving interstate and my cousin is supposed to look after my cat. However, her current apartment doesn’t allow pets so she can only take my cat once she finds new accommodation. I’m needing long term accommodation for my cat. He’s very friendly, his food is quite cheap and he’s quite easy to take care of. I will be able to take the cat once my cousin finds accomodation. I’m willing to pay $500 a month.

Josephine was super accommodating, communicative and kind! She made me feel very comfortable letting her look after my cat.
