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.

Cat sit — feed, play, clean litter box 1x a day

$100

Springvale VIC 3171, Australia

13th May 2026

When: June 13-June16 Task: Visit our home 1x a day, to look after our cats What needs to be done: 1. Feed them (just opening their canned food and putting in bowls— instructions provided) 2. Putting the old bowls in the sink and rinse (just keep them in the sink) 3. OPTIONAL: Scooping their litter box. (only if you want and can. if not, that’s totally fine. additional tip/fee will be given to those who are okay with doing this) That’s all ☺️ All cats are nice and won’t bother you. They are fully vaccinated. Looking for someone who ideally has pets and understands their mess and smell LOL. We have CCTV cameras to watch the cats so you might hear our voice from time to time. Photo uploaded of one of our cats, Berry.

Dog sitter for small old dog during move approx 1 week

$100

Springvale VIC, Australia

8th May 2026

I am currently moving and staying at friends places and my small old chihuahua who is extremely friendly and quiet (not normal chihuahua behaviour) would be much less stressed if he was able to stay at one place during this time- if anyone is willing to pet sit him for me for about a week (potentially a couple of extra days) for $100- he is extremely low maitenence but has started losing sight and hearing recently- but happy to be left alone day or night if needed and can't walk much so pretty much just would enjoy some company and stable environment.

Dog sitting Neo Teacup Yorki Poodle 10 Days

$100

Endeavour Hills VIC, Australia

6th May 2026

10th of May till the 20th I need a Petsitter for Neo- Teacup Yorki poodle 6.5 yrs old for 10 days whilst going away. Neo is toilet trained, not a yappy dog, quiet, cuddly and friendly, he’s a perfect lap dog for chilling on the couch watching Netflix. Great with Kids. Toilet trained. Preferably no other pets as he’s not much bigger than a tissue box. Preferably work remotely or at home allot. Will come with food supplies, toys, lil jacket and lead for walking.

Such a wonderful job with looking after my little Neo for my trip. They were flexible with leaving a day later, quick to message, communicate and stay in touch and so trustworthy and reliable. Would definitely book them again. Thanking you ever so kindly. Xx

In Desperate Need Of A Dog Sitter!!

$50

Cranbourne VIC, Australia

15th Apr 2026

I am desperately trying to find a pet sitter who could take my Dad’s elderly Staffy this Friday 17/4 until Tuesday 21/4. My Dad lives in Pioneer Bay and can drop Bonnie off anywhere between there and the airport on Friday afternoon and provide her with all the food she will need for those days. We are a little stressed at the moment, as he will be unable to visit his family on the Gold Coast for my 50th this weekend, if we can’t find anyone in time. Please reach out asap if you can help, thank you 😊

Was an absolute life saver, having my Dad’s dog Bonnie, so that he could be with his family for my 50th birthday! Great communication and all round was a very positive experience!
