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.

Newcastle, New South Wales

I’m needing my cat temporarily rehomed for 4-5 months with all expenses provided: automatic time feeder, automatic water fountain only needing refilling ( filters included ), cat tower if wanted, inclosed litter box and litter provided, toys, bed and cardboard ( he loves to rip it up :) ) Pay 100 a month Meet my cat Harley! He’s a good boy lazy and sleepy most of the day but occasionally likes to look out the window, rip up cardboard and zoom around. He can be vocal and have a chat and loves a cuddle and face scratch. Occasionally he can have a temper but either giving some space or a toy will solve this. Having to rehome due to not being able to stay at my current house till I move next year! Preferably no other cats ( dogs are fine) I can explain the situation is more detail if interested! Thank you
