What do pet care services include?
Pet care services go beyond basic care for your pets or animals - they can also help with boarding, companionship, and exercise. Importantly, they can help you look after your pet if you’re unable to or if you’ll be away. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or someone to help you take care of a puppy when you're at work, Airtasker can connect you with the right professionals.
Here are a range of pet services available to help with your beloved animals:
Pet sitting & boarding
Most pet owners consider boarding kennels for their pets when they’re heading away overnight or for an extended period, but your pet can also stay in your home or in the home of a registered pet sitter. Some pet boarding services also offer a day care service for those pets that don’t like to be left alone during the day. At a pet boarding service, your pet will receive food, exercise, and comfortable bedding as well as the company of people and dogs around them. There may also be music and air conditioning in some places. Or if you choose a dog, reptile boarding, or cat sitting service, your pet can stay in a familiar environment and keep to their routine with a dedicated pet sitter in your own place. This is especially helpful for anxious pets or those needing constant supervision.
Dog walking & exercise
If you’re working long hours or heading away on holiday, dog walking services can help your pooch get their daily workout to keep them happy and healthy. During the walk, they’ll burn off energy and ward off feelings of boredom and restlessness when they’re back home alone. You can book dog walking as a one-off or regular service, and your dog may be walked with others if it’s comfortable with socialisation. Your dog walker will use your dog’s normal collar and lead, plus bring along treats to encourage good behaviour. They’ll walk your dog for around 30 minutes to an hour before bringing them safely back into your home or yard.
Washing & grooming
Washing and grooming are necessary for every pet’s health and well-being. Specialised pet grooming (including cat grooming and dog grooming) services are equipped to bathe your pet with minimal mess and fuss. Your pet groomer will wash and dry your pet’s coat, clip fur, trim nails, and administer any pest treatments in a single appointment. You’ll likely need to book pet grooming around once a month, ensuring you brush your pet’s fur to keep it clear of dirt between appointments.
Dog training
Getting help with dog training can be the quickest way to a house-trained and obedient pet. Dog training will help to improve your dog’s behaviours such as digging, jumping, and barking, while also giving them a chance to socialise with other dogs. Training can be done individually or as part of a group. Many new pet owners enrol their dogs into puppy preschool from as young as 8 weeks to encourage good behaviour early on.

Looking for someone to change an automatic cat litter bag (used by 2 cats) on 2 separate days as I’ll be away and can’t have someone come by those days to check in. Should be a 5 min job. The machine just has a drawer that needs to be open, a bag pulled out and another bag put in (will send a full vid guide of how to do it). Aside from that I’d appreciate a brief check in on the cats. If possible I’d like the tasker to come on Tuesday 24th and Friday 27th. Keys will be left in a lockbox.


Rachael was on time, a fantastic communicator and was wonderful with our cats.

Dog and apartment Sitter Wanted – Newcastle Are you an animal lover with experience caring for playful, affectionate, strong-minded dogs? We’re seeking a trustworthy and caring sitter for our delightful 2-year-old female, desexed English Staffy, Smudge. She’s loving, loyal, and full of personality – playful, intelligent, and happiest when she’s with people who understand her energetic spirit and can provide gentle guidance and strong boundaries. What We’re Looking For: Confidence with medium / strong dog breeds Reliable, responsible, and communicative Interested in an ongoing arrangement to build a bond with our girl Care Details: Smudge is fine at home on her own during the day or evening but ideally not for the whole day if it can be avoided Smudge needs at least one daily walk and play, with an extra walk when possible Smudge has a lot of training and responds well to strong boundaries. She will undoubtedly test those boundaries, especially at first (she’s not quite 2 years old so still has some puppy behaviours). She sleeps in an open-door crate at night, and any other time when at home just loves sleeping in the sun and hanging with humans Upcoming dates needed: One week in early August One weekend in September Three weeks in October About Our Home: Modern apartment in the centre of Newcastle Access to a pool, gym and rooftop area for you to enjoy during your stay We’d love to find someone who will become a familiar and friendly face for our beautiful much-loved Smudge, ensuring she feels comfortable and secure whenever we’re away. If this sounds like you, please reach out! We’re happy to arrange a meet-and-greet so you can get to know Smudge and discuss details. Looking forward to hearing from you!
