BEST PROPOSAL SITTER EVER! Katrina did an amazing job taking care of our pup Stitch during our engagement proposal. She even took him up to see us in our dedicated proposal area in the hotel so we could have photos with him! She kept us updated with photos of Stitch and we even got to see some funny videos of their adventures together on her Instagram story afterwards. She is the person to take care of your fur babies!! 🙂

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.

I have a pet bearded dragon who needs to be looked after over the Easter break. Preference is to bring her to you if you have the right enclosure / terrarium. Otherwise will need to come feed and clean her daily. She likes to eat fresh salad and live crickets so you will need to be okay with catching and feeding her live bugs each day.

Hi I'm away from April 11 to May 11 and need a cat sitter who's able to host my little Taco. He's a very quiet and relatively very lazy boy. He comes to you for attention and cuddles and most of the time he just likes to chill and do his own thing. Food is definitely the way to his heart but I'm trying to put him on a stricter diet. I will provide you with anything you need. I just need someone who can give him the love and care he deserves while I'm away. Please message me if for any questions! I'm happy to answer.

Pet Sitter Needed for Adorable Maltese Shih Tzu

$100

Sydney NSW, Australia

28th Mar 2025

We need a kind person to look after our small and friendly Maltese Shih Tzu from April 11th to 14th. He loves being around people, kids, and other dogs. He's small (under 6kg), loves sitting on laps, or just staying close to someone. He’s a great listener, very well-behaved, and so easy to care for that you'll hardly notice he's there! It would be perfect if you live near Ultimo or the city, making it easy for us to drop him off and pick him up. Alternatively, you can pick him up on the morning of the 11th and bring him back on the 14th. If you really love dogs, this could be a fun job for you!

Looking for a responsible dog sitter to look after our 2 corgis for 3 weeks from 26 April to 18 May while we are overseas. We need a home that doesn't have other dogs and ideally in the Ultimo area but flexible depending on person. Lupin is 8 and Saffron is 4 both house trained.

Both corgis are low maintenance dogs who enjoy lots of pats. Would be great to do a meet and greet prior to ensure this is suitable for both parties.

Overnight dog sitting for a 3 year old Pomeranian x jack Russel at a townhouse in Pagewood. Roughly 12pm Saturday (8/2) to 3pm Sunday (9/2). All he needs is to be let out in the back garden for the toilet every couple of hours and some biscuits for dinner and breakfast. (I will walk him before I leave) He likes to bark when he first meets someone, but after about 30 minutes he will love you and give you lots of kisses and sleep right next to you. You will have access to all amenities in the house for the duration of your stay. Please don't hesitate to message me if you have any questions :)

Jin was very professional and caring. Would highly recommend her.

Alysha took incredible care of my dog, Honey, for four days, and I couldn’t be happier with her service. She was attentive, communicative, and made sure Honey felt comfortable and loved while I was away. I received regular updates and photos, which gave me complete peace of mind. Honey came back happy and well- cared for. I highly recommend Alysha to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter. Thanks again, Alysha!
