What do dog sitting services include?

Airtasker’s dog sitting service can be straightforward. While the specifics may vary from Tasker to Tasker, and depend on your pet’s own needs, here are the things that you can expect a dog sitter to do.

Puppy collection and delivery

Your puppy sitter can arrange for the collection and delivery of your puppy. A puppy sitter or pet transport service can collect your pup. Then, when you get home from your trip, the sitter can bring your pup back to you. 

Feeding & administering medication

Your puppy sitter relies on your detailed instructions for feeding your pet, providing enough water, and giving them their vitamins and medicine (if applicable). Make sure you have enough supplies before you leave, whether it’s kibble, canned food, home-cooked meals, or raw food. Make sure your sitter is familiar with food prep and portioning. Be clear about what food you allow your dog to eat, and what they’re allergic to.

If your pet is on a special diet, make sure your sitter is informed. The same goes for medication - prepare written instructions and review them verbally before you leave. Don’t just rely on a note on the counter! Good preparation is essential to making sure your pet stays healthy even while you’re out.

Cleaning up pet mess

Puppy sitting also includes cleaning up a pet’s mess. Let your Tasker know your dog’s signal for when they need to “go”, your pet’s usual spot, and how you usually handle dog mess. Make sure your sitter also knows where the cleaning supplies are kept, in case your dog can’t make it to their spot.

Exercise and playtime

Your pet sitter also makes sure your pet/s get enough exercise, playtime, and even training while you’re out. Let your puppy sitter know if they can take your dog on walks while you’re out, and how often this needs to be done. If you have any rules for walks, such as cleaning the paws afterwards or avoiding a rowdy neighbour dog, make sure you tell your sitter about these. Your puppy sitter also makes sure that your pet stays secure at all times, whether inside or outside your property.

Pets, cuddles, and TLC

Your pet will need all the love they can get while you’re out for a friend’s wedding or week-long business trip. Your dog sitter makes sure your pooch gets petted and cuddled regularly. Let your puppy sitter know if they can give your pet treats, and how many they can have per day. Ideally, your pet and the Tasker have met prior to the puppy sitting appointment, so your Tasker will be able to pet and scratch your dog in all their favourite spots.

Puppy grooming

Grooming may include brushing your puppy’s fur and trimming their nails. To avoid overwhelming your puppy, the puppy sitter may brush your puppy’s coat a few minutes at a time throughout the day. If you want to come home to a fresh-smelling pup and a clean house, go ahead and book a sofa cleaning or house cleaning service on our platform as well!

Updates on your pet

If pet updates are part of your Tasker’s arrangement, you can expect an email or message from your sitter on a regular basis. In case of emergencies, you can have your sitter call a relative in the area or your vet - just to make sure your dog is alright.

I need a last minute dog sitter for 7 weeks from 10 November to 3rd January Ava is a large breed, ridgeback x greyhound. Very much a greyhound in nature very gentle but large and a bit goofy like ridgebacks. She currently lives with a 5 y/o and 6 month old caring and loving of both. Ava is keen to sleep most of the day away but does enjoy the dog park and long walks a few times a week. Ava also love the water and beach. Ava is normally an inside dog but spends most days outside in the sun sleeping. Ava will need to stay at your place for the duration, all food and bedding long with toys will be supplied. She will also be flea treated wormed so all she’s needs is love and pats. - Due date: Needs to be done on Thursday, 10 November 2022

Brisbane QLD, Australia

8th Dec 2020

Hi, Our beautiful labradoodle puppy needs someone who can visit him at our home in Cleveland when we are not able to get home. He is in a spacious training cage inside as he is not big enough to roam around the house on his own as he may injure himself. Main responsibilities would include popping in, giving him a pat, playing with him for 15-20 mins, making sure he has some water and goes to the toilet. You would be needed around midday. The amount of work depends entirely on my partners roster, we would usually not require this outside of business hours unless we want to go away for the weekend. If this goes well - we hope this could be a long term arrangement and if you are available for future dog sitting/walks. We would love him to meet someone he really gets along with. Would definitely suit someone in the Cleveland/Capalaba or bayside area.
