Bradley was kind enough to visit my home for a few days to take my Pugalier Zac for a walk, play and feed him. He did an awesome job, Zac was in very good spirits upon my return and Brad would even text me each visit to let me know he was fine. Very reliable and caring person, would utilise Brads services anytime, cheers Leigh

What do pet care services include?

Pet care services go beyond basic care for your pets or animals - they can also help with boarding, companionship, and exercise. Importantly, they can help you look after your pet if you’re unable to or if you’ll be away. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or someone to help you take care of a puppy when you're at work, Airtasker can connect you with the right professionals. 

Here are a range of pet services available to help with your beloved animals:

Pet sitting & boarding

Most pet owners consider boarding kennels for their pets when they’re heading away overnight or for an extended period, but your pet can also stay in your home or in the home of a registered pet sitter. Some pet boarding services also offer a day care service for those pets that don’t like to be left alone during the day. At a pet boarding service, your pet will receive food, exercise, and comfortable bedding as well as the company of people and dogs around them. There may also be music and air conditioning in some places. Or if you choose a dog, reptile boarding, or cat sitting service, your pet can stay in a familiar environment and keep to their routine with a dedicated pet sitter in your own place. This is especially helpful for anxious pets or those needing constant supervision.

Dog walking & exercise

If you’re working long hours or heading away on holiday, dog walking services can help your pooch get their daily workout to keep them happy and healthy. During the walk, they’ll burn off energy and ward off feelings of boredom and restlessness when they’re back home alone. You can book dog walking as a one-off or regular service, and your dog may be walked with others if it’s comfortable with socialisation. Your dog walker will use your dog’s normal collar and lead, plus bring along treats to encourage good behaviour. They’ll walk your dog for around 30 minutes to an hour before bringing them safely back into your home or yard.

Washing & grooming

Washing and grooming are necessary for every pet’s health and well-being. Specialised pet grooming (including cat grooming and dog grooming) services are equipped to bathe your pet with minimal mess and fuss. Your pet groomer will wash and dry your pet’s coat, clip fur, trim nails, and administer any pest treatments in a single appointment. You’ll likely need to book pet grooming around once a month, ensuring you brush your pet’s fur to keep it clear of dirt between appointments.

Dog training

Getting help with dog training can be the quickest way to a house-trained and obedient pet. Dog training will help to improve your dog’s behaviours such as digging, jumping, and barking, while also giving them a chance to socialise with other dogs. Training can be done individually or as part of a group. Many new pet owners enrol their dogs into puppy preschool from as young as 8 weeks to encourage good behaviour early on.

$100

Buderim QLD, Australia

20th Feb 2026

I need someone to come pick up my two potted citrus trees and care for them for two months. Then when I find a new home, deliver my potted citrus trees. They aren’t massive, but they definitely won’t fit in the RAV. So looking for some help. They are pretty low maintenance, they live in part shade and get watered once a week. I’ll feed them before you take them so they shouldn’t need another feed. I’ve only ever got one teenie mandarin and one microscopic lime from these two, so pretty useless… but I just can’t part with them (they were gifts for my first Mother’s Day).

Did the task perfectly! Thank you Cameron

Quiet In-Home Supervision (Crate Rest) – Post-Surgery Dog

$120

Tanawha QLD, Australia

5th Feb 2026

Hours: 8:00am to 4:30pm I need a calm, focused person to supervise my dog’s recovery from surgery in Tanawha. She is on strict crate rest in the lounge room. This is a very low-maintenance task, ideal for someone working remotely or studying who wants a quiet change of scenery. ​The Role: ​Supervision: Maintain a low-energy, calm environment. ​Strict "No Excitement" Policy: No high-energy interaction or high-pitched voices. She must stay resting to heal. ​Medication: Administer one dose of tablets. She is easy to medicate, but tablets must be given by hand (not in food). ​Toilet breaks: Take her outside for very short, slow toilet breaks. She must stay on a lead at all times when out of the crate to prevent jumping/running. ​The Perks: ​Comfortable lounge room with high-speed Wi-Fi & Netflix. ​Coffee machine is all yours. ​You are encouraged to bring your laptop and treat this as your office for the day.

Stacey kept me updated on pet's condition throughout the day and handled her well.

Hello, I was wandering if anyone living in Noosa heads would be available to pet sit my dog for half the day tomorrow (18/09/2022)? I plan to drop her off at 6.15am and try to collect her by 12pm. Her name is Mia and she's a sweet heart with people. It would be best if you don't have any pets because it takes time for them to know each other and this is a last minute request. - Due date: Needs to be done on Sunday, 18 September 2022

Thank you Ana for looking after Mia. You've done a great job and thank you for taking her to the beach. Wishing you safe travels and happiness while you stay here.
