Hello my name is Lamia. I have been taking care of pets from my early teenage years. I still have 11 cats back at home. Although I am currently doing my masters degree here, back in my home I was the one taking care of my cats. I arranged their foods, medicine and vet appointment.&nbsp;
I am mostly comfortable working with cats. I will look after your cats when you are out for long time, starting from 1 hour to 3 hours. Depending on the location from my house to the customers, I can come early morning if needed. As I have to use the public transportation, I may or may not proceed with the job if it's not possible with the given time. I am available on weekends from 11 am to 7 pm and for weekdays, I am available from Tuesday to Friday at 9 am to 2 pm. I will give constant updates about your cats while you are going on about your day.
Services include:
 giving them food and water
 clearing the litters
 playing with them 
 feeding them medicine according to their prescriptions (if needed) 
Services don't include:
 shower / grooming 
 taking them to vet appointments 


Hi I'm Alana! I'm 19 years old I work part time in the health care industry! I absolutely adore animals myself so I thought why not work with them! I have 5 amazing animals in my home. 3 cats and 2 dogs who claim they hate each other but always seem to be cuddled up on the bed together . I work different hours at my day job so I may not be available 247 but, I am available after for feedings and walking after normal working hours :) I have previous experience pet sitting on using a different company but I am here to try a new one! I am wanting to become a pet sitter for filling in my days, extra money for savings so I can soon afford my own place one day &nbsp;
I am abailable for pet feedings, sitting and walking! times and dates may change depending on my outside work week!

Hi there! I'm Carmen 
I'm 38 years old and you wouldn't believe it but I love dogs!!
I have two Red Heelers, Barney &amp; Bonnie who are a huge part of my life. Having no kids of my own, these two are my kids. We saved Barney who was tied up to a tree and have had Bon Bon since she was a pup. Raising Bon from a young age gave me the opportunity to teach her loose-lead walking, as well as basic manners such as waiting patiently before meals and treats. Barney's past meant he needed a little extra patience, but through consistency and positive guidance, we also helped him learn good manners and build his confidence
Caring for dogs has always been a natural part of my life, I bring a lifetime of hands-on care and genuine love for dogs. Over the years I've cared for and rescued several dogs through different stages and chapters of my life. Also growing up with and being around family dogs has helped me understand the responsibility, patience, and consistency that dogs need to be able to feel loved and respected. I treat every dog as if they were my own. I am reliable, attentive, and truly passionate about providing a safe, nurturing, and fun environment for every dog in my care.&nbsp;
MY SERVICES
Before any booking, I'd love to arrange a meet and greet with you and your dog. This gives us the opportunity to get to know one another, discuss your dog's routine, personality, likes and dislikes, any medical or behavioural needs, and answer any questions you may have. It also gives your dog the chance to become familiar with me, helping them feel comfortable and relaxed before our first visit or walk.
Home Visits 
If doggy daycare is a little overhwelming for your dog, house visits may just be the next best thing.&nbsp;&nbsp;
During each visit, I'll spend quality one-on-one time with your dog, tailored to their individual needs.&nbsp;
I'm also happy to help with those little jobs around the house to give you extra peace of mind, if there's something specific you'd like done, just let me know and I'll do my best to help.
Each visit lasts 30-45 mins, but if there is any extra tasks that need to get done I am happy to stay that bit longer to complete them.
Agility Training &amp; Enrichment Time: I also offer optional services during home visits, these include a bit of fun agility training and enrichment time for your dog. I find that even though physical exercise is great to keep our furbabies fit and healthy, mental exercise is also as equally important. Agility training is great for co ordination skills, obedience support and creates a sense of confidence in your dog, as they know they have the capabilities to do something which may be very well out of their comfort zone. This option will only be available if you choose the 2 x Home Visits and comment agility/enrichment. The first visit will be the general care and duties and the second visit will be the agility training/enrichment time.
Dog Walking
Whether your dog enjoys a leisurely sniff around the neighbourhood, a brisk exercise walk, or a combination of both I'll tailor each outing to suit them.
Each walk will be roughly 30mins.
After each walk, I'll make sure your dog has fresh water, settles comfortably back at home, and I'll send you an update with photos so you can see how much fun they've had.
I do have experience administering medication to my own dogs. While I'm happy to assist where appropriate, I am not a qualified veterinary professional and cannot administer medications that require professional training.
I have a certification in Pet First Aid.&nbsp;
I am comfortable caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, ages, and temperaments. Every dog is unique, so I'll take the time to work closely with you to understand your dog's individual personality, routine, and needs. My goal is to provide the best possible positive experience for your dog while they're in my care, so you can enjoy complete peace of mind knowing they're safe, happy, and well looked after receiving the same love, patience, and attention that I'd give my own.
I have also chosen to donate 1% of all booking fee to GAWS.
Look forward to meeting you and becoming someone you and your doggo can trust for many tail wags and happy adventures together! 


About Me 
Hi, I'm Ally!&nbsp;

I'm a pet sitter who is servicing Geelong, surf coast and the bellarine peninsula!!&nbsp;

I’ve always been an animal lover and have been pet sitting since I was a kid! Looking after animals is something I’ve always loved, and I know how important it is to feel comfortable and at ease leaving your pet in someone else’s care.
I’ve fostered rescue dogs and gained work experience with Seeing Eye Dogs Australia. One of the dogs we fostered went on to assist a person who was blind and deaf, and we were lucky enough to adopt him when he retired! He’s now living his best life in retirement.

About My Services 🦮‍🦺
I currently offer pet sitting in your home and work full-time from home in marketing, which means I can spend most of the day with your pets!&nbsp;

I’m happy to stick to their usual routine, whether that means walks, playtime, cuddles etc. I can also help with little things around the house, like watering plants, while you’re away.

I’ve been looking after dogs and cats for regular clients for years and am happy to provide references if you’d like!&nbsp;

I look forward to meeting you and your furry friend!!&nbsp;

** A Minimum stay of two nights is preferred


Hi there! I was studying nursing at Deakin University and I’m also a proud dog mum to a small, friendly pup named Milo . My nursing background has taught me to be patient, detail-oriented and calm in all kinds of situations — qualities that I naturally bring into caring for pets. I understand how important it is to make sure your furry family member feels safe, happy and well looked after when you’re away.

I’ve always had a strong love for animals and truly enjoy spending time with them. Whether it’s daily walks, feeding, playtime, or simply offering comfort and companionship, I do everything with care and attention. Having my own dog has helped me understand routines, dietary needs and little personality quirks that make every pet unique.

I offer a range of services including dog walking, day care, home visits and overnight sitting in the Geelong area. I’m happy to follow your pet’s normal schedule to make them feel at home. You can expect regular photo updates and messages while you’re away, so you know your pet is safe and content.

For everyone’s safety, I only take vaccinated and friendly pets. I treat every animal as if they were my own — with love, patience and plenty of cuddles ️

Hi! I’m a caring and reliable pet sitter who truly enjoys spending time with animals and building genuine connections with them. I have a gentle and patient personality, and I always pay close attention to each pet’s unique needs, emotions, behavior, and daily routines. I understand that every pet is different, so I take the time to build trust and help them feel safe, comfortable, and secure in their own environment.

I usually tailor each visit based on the pet’s needs. Dog walks are typically around 20–60 minutes depending on energy level and routine. During visits, I make sure pets are fed on schedule, have fresh water, clean litter or living spaces, and receive either playtime or calm companionship depending on their personality.

I’m also confident handling unexpected situations calmly and responsibly. If any issue arises, such as a pet showing signs of stress or illness, I will immediately contact the owner and follow any provided instructions. Your pet’s safety and well-being will always be my first priority.

With a background in customer service, I’m very detail-oriented, respectful, and attentive in communication. I will also send regular updates with messages or photos so you can feel reassured while you’re away.

I treat every pet as if they were my own, with genuine care, consistency, and responsibility. 

Hi, my names Olivia and I'm an experienced pet sitter from Geelong. I have been pet sitting for almost 6 years and have looked after a range of different pets of all ages and breeds/types. I have such a love for animals and am very caring towards them. I can do at home care, take them on walks, feed them, really open to help out with anything. I have a very flexible schedule (dependent on having enough notice) so I should be able to help out whenever you need me. I am a great communicator, very trustworthy and love being active. I have a dog of my own, a cavoodle named Bindi. She is 13 and getting old but has had an incredible life. I will always care for your animals like my own and I hope I can help you out with your sitting needs :) Reach out if you have any questions!

Cats have always been a part of my life. My friends and family call me the crazy cat lady, because I genuinely attract cats everywhere I go, even the ones owners swear “don’t like people.” Somehow, that cat likes me. I don’t know what it is, but I’ll take it.

I have two cats and a dog, so I understand just how much personality &amp; routine every pet has, &amp; how much peace of mind it gives an owner to know their fur baby is genuinely being looked after, not just fed &amp; forgotten.
I also grew up with rabbits, Guinea pigs, hermit crabs, fish and a cockatiel. 
My two, Bobby &amp; Eddie, are inside only - so don’t worry I understand the importance of a clean &amp; comfortable litter space.

Outside of pet sitting, I have a background in health and community support work, including allied health administration and personal training, so I’m calm, reliable, and used to being trusted with things that matter. I’m comfortable administering medication, caring for senior cats, and managing multi-cat households, so whatever your cat’s routine looks like, I’ll take the time to get it right.

Visits typically run 15-30 minutes, and I’m always happy to stay longer if your cat wants more time or company. When I visit, you can expect fresh food and water, a clean litter tray, playtime or cuddles (whatever your cat prefers!), and a photo/video update so you can relax knowing everything’s exactly as it should be. I’m also happy to water plants, bring in the mail, and take your bins in or out while I’m there.

I’m currently very flexible, available mornings, afternoons and evenings, 7 days a week, and I’d love to meet you and your cat for a free Meet &amp; Greet first to make sure it’s the right fit for everyone.

I’m happy to walk small dogs for 30 mins around their local neighbourhood.

I have a cat（5 years old） and a rabbit at home now（in China）. My family used to have a dog too. When I was back home, I spent tons of time with my cat every day - she slept with me and watched TV with me.
I know what pets should and shouldn't eat, and I also know how to get along with them. I can pick up on my pets' moods and whether they're not feeling well or sick right away.
I'll keep an eye on the cats and dogs at all times, and I'll treat different pets - whether outgoing or introverted - in different ways.The outgoing ones will let them get exposed to new things, and for the introverted ones, I'll just spend more time playing with them.
I usually take my dogs for a walk for about half an hour, in safe areas like parks and residential neighborhoods, to make sure they get enough exercise and stay healthy. Of course we'll also get them home safely without the owners having to worry, and we'll give them a detailed rundown of what we did today.
I love pets so much!Even though I can't bring my pets to Australia, I still want to spend time with them here, so please feel free to leave your pets in my care - I'll be great friends with them!

Hi! My name is Tiffany, and I’m passionate about providing loving care for animals of all kinds. I have over five years of experience volunteering at the RSPCA, where I gained hands-on experience caring for dogs, cats, and other animals, ensuring their safety, health, and happiness. I also hold a Certificate II in Animal Studies, which has given me a strong foundation in animal behaviour, welfare, and handling. Beyond volunteering, I have experience fostering animals, providing temporary homes and nurturing care for pets in need.

I am motivated by my genuine love for animals and the joy I get from helping them feel safe, happy, and well-cared for. By providing companionship, play, and reassurance, I take pride in offering attentive, reliable, and compassionate care to every animal I look after. I am committed to treating each pet as if they were my own, ensuring they receive the attention, care, and love they deserve.

I am an enthusiastic animal lover especially dogs! I have my own 5 turning 6 years old Border Collie who is my heart dog who I cried over when I first met her because she was just so adorable! Ask me about the story if you ever get the chance! She brings me so much joy and happiness and being a working dog breed with lots of energy, keeps me moving and on the go. I love all dogs and always want the chance to give a new furry friend a pat or a cuddle. Knowing how much I love my own dog, I'll make sure to show that love and care to the furry family member in your life whenever I take them for a walk or get a chance to look after them! Dogs really bring so much joy into the world and I want the chance to make a new furry friend. Happy to take your dog for a 30, 45 or 60 minute walk.
