Find experienced pet care professionals in Thornbury

I’m away in Europe and my shrimp tank has gone a bit feral - most likely an algae bloom from too much feeding. The pet sitter doesn’t know how to deal with it as is only knowledgeable about looking after the cat. Need someone to come sort out the situation, do a water change and instruct the pet sitter on how to deal with the situation while I’m away. Back mid August so would rather not come back to dead shrimp and a hot soupy stinky mess. Your knowledge and expertise are greatly appreciated

Looking for an experienced pond cleaner to completely clean out our brick-raised garden pond and help save our fish. We inherited this pond and its goldfish when we bought the house a few years back. Following a recent home renovation, the pond has become heavily choked with organic muck, rotting leaves, and overgrown weeds. Unfortunately, the water quality has deteriorated, and we have lost 3–4 fish in the past few days. Hoping we can save the rest of them. Pond Specifications: Dimensions: Raised brick trough, approximately 3000mmx700mmx400mm deep. Inhabitants: A small population of goldfish (visible in photos). Please try to keep the rest of our fish safe - we have a bucket, but would probably prefer you bring something suitable for them if possible. We are looking for someone to drain and clean the pond. We don't have a pump or and pipes etc. The plants need a trim, or may need to be disposed, and we would like some recommendations for new plants if needed. And any other tips for maintaining the pond a bit better than what we have! We'll need a hand with conditioning/treating our tap water for refilling, but might be able to handle the actual refill ourselves. We don't have any equipment for this job at all, so will need you to bring everything. We can use our Green Bin for waste, if that makes a difference to the price. Looking to get this sorted as soon as possible to save the remaining fish - hopefully

We are looking for someone to take care of our 10 year-old female Maltese Shih Tzu at sitter's home. We'll drop off the evening on 6th July (Mon) and probably pick up by 10 pm 14th July (Tue). Our budget is $25 per evening/night. Looking forward to hearing from you. Thanks

Hi, I am looking for someone to care for our 2 Guinea pigs whilst we are on holidays for 3 weeks in January. Ideally you would keep the hutch at your place and care for the Guineas there. They are easy pets to care for as they are very low maintenance. All food, bedding etc would be provided. You would be required to clean their hutch daily, provide fresh hay, food and water at least once a day and keep them out of the direct sun (especially when temperatures reach 28 degrees or more). If this sounds like something you might be interested in, please let me know x

I need someone handy to help design and build a simple protective structure around my automatic cat feeder so that only one of my cats can access it. The issue: I have two cats — one is a kitten (small) and the other is quite large. At the moment, both can access the feeder. I need a barrier or enclosure that allows only the kitten can get in, while blocking the larger cat. The feeder is programmed to only open for the Kitten, but the larger cat comes in over the top of her and jams his head into it as it closes and eats all her food. So I need something around it, that prevents him for being able to jam his head in. You’ll need to measure the feeder, consider the size difference between the cats, and create something functional, sturdy, and safe for pets. Materials should be cat-safe and durable. Ideally, the design allows easy refilling/cleaning of the feeder.

I have a lovely little red heeler named Shelby who's just had surgery and I need a hand to look after her during the day at my place when I'm at work (8am to 3pm) this Friday and Saturday. Just need someone to watch her, make sure she isn't jumping up on furniture, that she's staying as still as possible, lets her outside to go to the toilet, give her occasional pats. More than happy if you study/ watch telly/ chill out for the majority of time. I'm close to Penders Park in Thornbury and if you're able to help out that would be great, happy to do a meet and great sometime before. Thanks, Stu.
