🐾 Walkies with the Pack — In-home dog care (St Kilda)

About us

Hi, Noelle & Sean, here,

We run a small, in-home dog care service from my home in St Kilda, offering dog walking, day stays and boarding.

Dogs stay inside my home, not in kennels or outdoor runs. We take very limited numbers so every dog gets calm, consistent care and supervision.

This setup works especially well for dogs who:

live in apartments

don’t cope with kennels

prefer routine and a quieter environment

We only care for dogs in my own home — no rotating sitters, no subcontracting.

Final line (this matters on Pawshake)

Spots are limited to keep care consistent, so early enquiries are recommended.

Multiple dogs:

I’m happy to care for more than one dog from the same household, however additional dogs must be added to the booking as an add-on. This ensures each dog receives proper supervision and care.
