Dog sit my Boxer for 5 nights

This was the first time we’d left our dog with anyone else and we are so grateful to Chantel for making it so easy for all of us. She took such good care of our dog and even sent us regular photos and updates. I highly recommend Chantel for dog sitting. 10/10!!

Amazing dog sitter! So happy we found J.M. Treated our furbaby like part of the family with lots of cuddles, walks and treats. Regular updates and we were always confident he was in good hands. Helped with last minute changes and great communication. No hesitation recommending - thank you so much 🐾

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.  

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. 

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. 

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. 

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. 

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. 

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. 

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.

Rushcutters Bay NSW, Australia

6th Jun 2026

I need an experienced dog lover to watch my sweet and well trained, easy-to-manage (but large-for-the-area) shepherd mix for a little under two days this week while I move apartments. Doug-fir is a 35kg mix of Australian Shepherd and Queensland Cattle Dog with German Shepherd and Collie. He knows commands and walks well on-leash in Sydney parks. We are still working on recall, since he moved here from the California wilderness late last year, so off-leash is not yet an option. I am moving from Rockwall Crescent in Potts Point to Holdsworth Ave. in Elizabeth Bay. To keep the dog out from underfoot and avoid his complicating the removalists’ work, I am looking to have him picked up (or if necessary drop him off) on Monday evening and delivered (or picked up by me) on Wednesday late-afternoon. His regular walkers will take him out Tuesday and Wednesday midday, but he will require 20-minute walks on Tuesday morning and evening and Wednesday morning. If this works out well, I am looking for someone I can trust as a regular sitter during periodic trips out of town. In those cases it may be an option to stay at my apartment, which is lovely. This job is specifically for people with experience caring for and walking larger dogs. Doug-Fir is great with kids and smaller dogs. (For him to share space with a larger dog (>25kg), it would be worth a quick meet-and-greet first to ensure compatibility.) Thank you for your consideration.

Hi! Looking for someone lovely to hang out with my dog Miska in Barangaroo for the day. She's a real sweetheart and just needs company, she's just landed this evening from NZ and I will sadly be at work most of tomorrow — so I need someone to take her for walks throughout the day and give her lots of cuddles.

Thank you so much for looking after Miska today and giving her to much care and love!!
