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.

Dog Boarding Needed – 8 (5pm)–17(5pm) Jan 2026 (Home Environment) We’re looking for home-style dog boarding for our 2-year-old Golden Retriever 🐶 Dates: 8 Jan 2026 (from 5pm) to 17 Jan 2026 (5pm) Dog: Very friendly, gentle, and great with kids What we’re after: • Regular home (not a kennel or premium pet service) • Someone with reasonable dog-care experience • Short daily walks and normal feeding We’ll supply all food. Looking for a reliable, caring person at a reasonable cost who enjoys having a dog at home. If everything works well, we’ll likely need dog boarding around 3 times a year (about 10 days each time), so this could become a long-term arrangement and a nice ongoing way to earn extra cash. Happy to discuss details 😊

Hello! I am looking for a dog groomer for our 9 month old Golden Retriever. Ideally I would love someone that can do the following for him - - Wash and dry - Brush (including de-shedding of his winter coat) - Trim around the tail - Trim nails and the hair on his paws We normally brush and wash him ourselves but can’t at the moment as I’m recovering from surgery. He is pretty calm and not aggressive at all, though he may try to run away from the blow dryer!
Super impressed! We were nervous as this was our first time using a professional groomer for our dog, but our dog looked like he loved the experience and we will definitely be re-booking!

My daughter has two Cavalier's Ralph & Willow who need looking after for one week whilst she is working at Mount Buller. Starting today if possible until next Saturday. I am unable to have them in my apartment. All food and their bed will be provided. They are both 8 years old and the best of friends. Willow loves a cuddle and a walk. Ralph is deaf but a happy boy and loves his food. They are both good with other animals and children as they have the sweetest nature. Unfortunately, they cannot stay in their own home during this period so you must be prepared to have them in your own home. We can drop off today when convenient.
Samantha and her son cared for our two cavaliers whilst our daughter was working. They did a wonderful job. Thank you so much
