We live in jerrabomberra and after travelling Australia with the military we decided to call Canberra home.We love pets and know how important it is that they are part of the family and feel loved. We are keen to share our love of animals and pet sit your animal in their home while you are away. With 4 boys we always have plenty of hands to walk, play and show affection to your pet so they don't feel like they are missing out while you are away. We want your pet to feel comfortable so keeping them in their environment is key to stability. We can also water plants, collect mail and put out or collect bins during our visit with your pet. we dont take pets into our home as we have an older pug who likes her space but more than happy to stop in to your house several times a day.

Home visits for at least 30minutes, we will clean up poop, fill up water, feed and play with your pet. We will also take dogs on a short walk around the local area.

My name is Nikita, I have owned dogs and cats my entire life and have owned birds for a large portion of my life. I have been doing pet/house sitting since 2020 and have many regular clients. I am based in the Canberra area but travel and location is not an issue, I will travel as far as Sydney and South Coast. I am comfortable looking after just about all pets, dogs, cats, rabbits, fish, birds ect. I have worked at a vet for about 8 months, so I am confident with administering medication of all kinds and noticing if something is not quite right with your furry friend. I have assisted in birth and neonatal care of puppies since I was 14 years old. I am currently working at a dog kennel and cat flats and have been since 2018. I have experience and confidence with cats and dogs of all ages and sizes, breed is not an issue.

I am currently only offering house/pet sitting at your house, dog walking, pet check ins once or twice a day and doggy outings. I do not have a limit of how long you will be requiring my service or a limit on number of pets. Before you book I would prefer to meet you and your pet/pets so we can make sure we all get along.

Hi, I'm Aimee! I absolutely adore dogs, and have grown up with our family border collie Dot. After moving out of home for uni I desperately miss the companionship of animals, and would love the opportunity to walk/overnight sit dogs to fill this missing void. Happy to take your special four legged family member on long walks/runs and spoil them with love and pats when you're away or just super busy. Most of my experience comes from my own puppy, or from a few neighbourhood dogs I've briefly looked after and walked (including Boxers, Golden Retrievers and Aussie Shepherds). 
I own a car, so I am happy to commute to you. I will have to schedule walks around my busy uni and work schedule, but overall I am pretty flexible. Would love to meet up to get introduced to your dog and find out about their niche quirks and personality!

Hi i'm Tess! I am 19 years old with my license, I've house and dog/cat sat many times and I love animals of all kinds. I'm friendly and reliable! I have sat old and grey as well as new pups as well as children ranging from 6 months to 12 years old. I know this is usually for pets but I do it all!! I am happy to house sit for weeks-months at a time, I can walk, feed, exercise and care for all kinds of animals, I have a car to transport if needed too! I have two staffy mixes myself and a recently adopted a beautiful ridgeback. I enjoy walks and reading and playing piano. I am LGBTQ+ friendly and inclusive and love making friends with people (and pets of course). I'm able to help all across canberra, I live Northside (inner north) but am happy to travel down Southside or outside the borders, I grew up on a farm just outside cbr. Let me know if you have any jobs for me! :)

I hope I can help someone out, and i always love to make a new furry friend!

I am a young professional living in the Woden valley area. I have lived with fur babies my whole life, am a dog lover, 3 time boxer owner and am currently proudly owned by a beautiful goofy boxer named Beau.&nbsp;
I love being outdoors amongst the trees and nature and would love to help you walk your dog. I frequently walk around the dog friendly Mt Taylor area.
I would be happy to walk your dog with other dogs, if they are ok with other dogs, or walk them one on one, depending on your preferences and accommodate any requests.
Please note that dog walking materials (lead/harness etc) must be supplied.
I can generally manage strong dogs but if they are still learning their manners while on walkies, I would appreciate knowing beforehand.
Please feel free to send me a message if you have any questions or would like to book in a dog walking session.&nbsp;
