My partner, Catherine, and I are Puppy Pals, and together we provide dog boarding and dog walking services. I've had dogs for most of my life, but we currently do not have any pets. I had three chihuahuas most recently (Nesse, Tweet & Rex), but love all breeds. Catherine, who most recently had a blue heeler x (Harley), is also dog obsessed.
Dog walking:
We are both experienced dog walkers, as longtime pet owners and experienced pet sitters. We offer 30 to 40-minute dog walks in Weston Creek, Molonglo Valley and parts of the Woden Valley area. We aim to provide a reliable, quality service, while being as flexible as possible.
Happy to discuss your dog's needs and make adjustments as needed. Please note, equipment such as a leash/harness, collar, & dog waste bags must be supplied.
Dog boarding:
We are not currently taking new clients for dog boarding as we are now focussing on dog walking.
When dog boarding, we take the dogs for a 30-minute walk twice a day (morning and afternoon), depending on the needs of the dog and the owner's guidelines. On weekends we often go to a nature reserve for a longer walk. For safety reasons we will always walk your dog on a leash.
We are experienced with anxious dogs and do our best to settle them in and help them feel at home. Our home is best suited to small and medium dogs who will be happy sleeping inside and spending their time indoors with us, with regular access to the small outdoor space. We take your specific requirements very seriously, whether they are related to diet, medication, walks or sleeping arrangements, so please let us know of any. We do daily photo updates, but please message us at any time you would like an udpate on your how your dog is going.
Full refund if canceled before 12:00 p.m. one day before the booking, 50% refund afterward.
No refund is payable if the booking is canceled on or after the start date.
Note: All times are based on the sitter’s time zone
We were so happy with our experience with Robert that we asked him back again and will do anytime we need our pets looked after!
Robert and his partner did a brilliant job caring for our small pets (6 birds, 3 guinea pigs, and a rabbit)! All of our instructions were followed perfectly and we received lots of updates and photos while we were away.
