Need more information about Pet Sitting in Melbourne VIC?

All pet parents want to know that their dog is being well cared for when they have to be away and cannot be the one to care for their pet. Thus, when leaving town on a business trip or a family vacation, a pet parent has an important choice to make between a kennel or Pet Sitting. Placing a pet in a kennel is not only expensive, it puts unnecessary stress on your dog, it usually means very little exercise, and it can put your pet in harm’s way by needless exposure to disease. Placing your dog in Pet Sitting in St Kilda VIC under the care of Mad Paws has many advantages which will give you peace of mind with the assurance of the following:

  • Personal Attention – The quantity and quality of time your pet minder gives your dog cannot be matched in a kennel. In Pet Sitting your pet will not be an animal to be checked on periodically, but instead will be interacting, playing and hanging out with a trusted and reliable caregiver/friend and will be a part of their home activity.

  • Stable Routine - Before you spend a dime, we ask that you set up a meeting with your pet minder and educate them on your dog's daily routine. The sitter will keep on your dog's schedule making them comfortable, and keeping them healthy.

  • Reduced Risk – Unlike a kennel, which could have your dog confined near diseased, aggressive, or despairing pets, Pet Sitting is an intimate setting. If there are other dogs they are carefully chosen, healthy and well behaved.

  • No Cages – The last place you want to leave your dog is behind bars in a kennel, which can compound stress for your dog and create worry for you. With a pet minder in a caring home environment your pet will be free and happy.

  • Doesn't Break the Bank - Not only does Pet Sitting give your dog more one on one attention, but this option is more affordable than a kennel as you can choose a sitter that fits your budget.

  • No Place Like Home – With Pet Sitting your dog will be ushered into a warm caring home and treated like family by the pet minder.
