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.

Berwick VIC 3806, Australia

We had our sitter pull out last minute due to an emergency and are now looking for another option 16-24TH DECEMBER. Heading away for a week and would love a house sitter to help with our dogs when we are away We have 6: Bernese mountain Dog, Golden Retriever, Cavoodle, Old English Sheepdog X, Yorkie, Maltese Shitzu They're all very chill and love both people and other dogs. They love being close to people and as we work from home, have never been left for more than 3-4 hours so we would need someone who can be home more often than not. Our youngest is our Malshi who will be 9 months old and Yorkie (1.5) and may not yet be completely toilet trained yet so he does need people close. All crate trained and Walked from 30mins to an hour Our house has 5 bedrooms (2 available to use), a large open plan lounge area, Butler pantry, laundry and theatre room. Ducted aircon and heating, backup Tesla battery for power outages and timed irrigation so you don't have to worry about the garden. We also have subscriptions to pretty much every channel Disney Plus, Netflix and Amazon so you can lock yourselves in the theatre room with a new 85 inch tv and watch anything your heart desires :) We would prefer a non smoking couple (as 6 dogs means alot of walks), other dogs are ok if they are friendly and well trained. We always hire a cleaner to come just before we leave so the house is left in the best possible condition before you arrive. We just ask that it is returned the same way. - Due date: Needs to be done on Saturday, 16 December 2023

My partner's mum got very very sick and we had to rush interstate last minute, returning on Xmas eve. Jackie and Kath were super accommodating. We really appreciate their help with looking after our large brood of 6 dogs during such a busy period and wouldn't hesitate to have them back again.
