Annie sat for our cat, Tuna, over a long weekend. She was extremely kind and self-sufficient. When we arrived home, Tuna was relaxed and happy and our apartment was as clean and tidy as we had left it. Annie would be welcome to sit for us again any time, we'd highly recommend her.
I could not have asked for a better first experience with zeewoi! Jordan and Nataki were great at communicating from the very start, and they sent me pictures and updates every day. I didn’t have to worry for a moment that my cat Anya was feeling lonely because I could tell she warmed up right away, even though she’s usually quite shy! They also went above and beyond making sure my apartment was tidy for when I got home. So grateful and would definitely be honored for them to sit for me again any time!
Francesco has been taking care of my furry babies and my place while I'm away for well over a year now, and I couldn't appreciate him more. He is a joy to communicate with, and the most reliable person one could hope for. Being able to count on him while I'm traveling makes a world of difference, because I know I don't need to worry about anything while I'm away. Benny and Zumba love him and are very well taken care of. I know because I come home to two very relaxed and happy kitties. I am super grateful to have found Francesco!
Hannah and Joseph were so kind, so communicative, and clean! Kevin seemed so happy in all the photos they sent. Not only did they wash my sheets and towels they used (without my requesting it, simply out of the kindness of their hearts), they ALSO then put my fresh sheets on the bed! 🥹❤️ Such incredible sitters. 10 stars!
Misti was wonderful! She was able to come by before I left town to meet my dog, Grace, which I really appreciated. She sent daily pics or videos and made sure that Grace got tons of snuggle time, which is a major requirement to keep my dog happy :) Cats and skateboards are evil enemies to Grace and it sounds like Misti experienced both and handled it flawlessly! Misti was a great communicator, left everything tidy for me when I got home and Grace was super mellow and relaxed, which tells me she got all the care she needed while I was gone. I highly recommend Misti - I'll definitely be asking her to sit again!
Lilly and Thomas stayed at our house and cared for our dogs for a month. I think they took the dogs to the beach nearly every day. Seeing pictures of our dogs on the beach made our time away from them feel so much better. Our house was immaculate when we returned, and we felt so fortunate to have such kind and loving people step in for us in our absence. Anyone would be super lucky to have them in their home.
Gwynn was wonderful! She was super communicative, flexible to come to our house beforehand to get oriented, and attentive to details. She connected with our pup, Scout, immediately and we felt so assured that he would be well cared for with her. We hope Gwynn can come stay again another time!
I was thrilled to have Courtenay as our sitter. We had a few last minute changes and she was very accommodating. She is a very pleasant, well spoken person who bonded very quickly with our dog, Pepe. We were in Europe and Courtenay keep us we’ll informed via internet, pictures and all. We came home to a clean house, a happy pet and a delicious pie she left for us in the refrigerator. You would be very pleased to have her as your sitter. Lucy Hottle
Wendy was great, she kept us updated on the dogs and all the fun she had hiking with them on the mountain. I returned home to a very tidy house. My dogs just loved her. I will definitely have Wendy sit for me again and would be very lucky to have her do a sit for you.
Julian and Susan were amazing, we came home to happy healthy creatures and a clean, tidy home and yard. They communicated with us during our vacation, both about anything unusual and just to let us know when things were going well (as they were the majority of the time). They are very adaptable and capable people, I highly recommend them for your home and pet needs.

We were very lucky to have had Nia for our recent house sit. She communicated well before the sit and arrived as planned. We shared a meal before we left which gave us time to get to know her and tell her about the house and our pets. After we left it soon became clear the cats loved Nia and the attention she gave them. We were kept informed throughout her stay with regular updates and video clips of what they were up to and how the garden was growing etc. We highly recommend Nia as a pet/house sitter and we would certainly have her back should the opportunity arise. Thanks again Nia
Sabre is a sweet, honest person who stepped up at the very last moment (after the prior sitter flaked out) to watch our dog and cat for 17 days. When there were a couple minor accidents, she informed us of them right away. One involved a burnt pan (easy to do if you’re not familiar with an induction stovetop) which she offered to replace. Sabre also washed the towels and sheets, and made up the bed before we got home. The yard was pooper scooped and litter box was clean. Pets seemed well-cared for. When she had to leave town for several hours one day, she made sure to arrange for our neighbor take care of the pets. Additionally, I appreciated how she didn’t assume that it would be ok to bring her cat. When we found out she was going to keep her cat in a kennel during her stay here, we told her she could bring him which worked out fine. Overall, I would confidently recommend Sabre to watch your pets and house.
Jeanne is a repeat pet sitter for us. She is wonderful and takes great care or our cats and our home. We have peace of mind when we travel knowing our kitties are under her care.
Wow! Just wow! We cannot say enough about the care and compassion Trisha and John provided to our cats and our home. We are always somewhat nervous about a new pet sitter in our home, but that all faded when we met this wonderful couple. They provided daily updates as requested, complete with pictures, videos and personalized captions. Upon our return, we were greeted by happy and content kitties. There was no sign of anxiety in Tika! Yea!!! Our home was clean, the sheets and towels were washed and bed remade! They even left behind thank you notes and little gifts! What a breath of fresh air these two individuals are! We hope to have them back again soon.
Danny and Jo did a great job caring for our 3 cats and fish AND lots of plants (and home of course) while we were out of town for 3 weeks. We came back to a very clean house, sheets, and towels all clean and folded and fresh sheets on the bed they were using. The plants were all alive too, which is a first for us (again, we have a lot of plants!). The cats were happy to see us and they were all accounted for (a past sitter lost a cat for a week - they escaped outside as a non-outside cat). Everything was in its place and looked great. We received regular updates (via text) with photos of the cats lounging about which was important for us. Danny asked good questions when they visited us before the sit, and when reviewing our pet/house sitting instructions. The only thing we noticed that was different was that our 2 young cats were a little lighter (not necessarily a bad thing) but we understand that being gone for that length of time can be stressful on our furry family, which almost always affects their eating habits. All in all, we would definitely have them again!
Tracy was an ideal pet sitter when we left for 12 days. She was communicative, friendly, and most importantly took perfect care of our two cats and our house. I would highly recommend her for any sit!
Karen was an extraordinary house and pet sitter who I hope to invite back again soon. You would be extremely fortunate to have her take care of your pets and home. From the very beginning she radiated calmness, knowledge, caring and curiosity. We had a great initial conversation where Karen answered questions I didn't even know I should be asking, and asked excellent questions so she could be prepared and understand the special needs for both my cat and home. She flew into my city the day before I was leaving and stayed at a nearby hostel so that we could meet in person and do a walk through of my home. They say pets have an intuitive nature about people, and I knew Karen would be a winner when my normally very shy/nervous cat came right up and let her pet him. Karen sent wonderful pictures and updates while I was gone and asked questions when she wasn't sure about something. When I returned home everything was spotless and my cat was content. Overall, I couldn't have asked for a better house sitter experience. Thank you Karen!
Tonya was great and filled in after our other sitter had to cancel. She was very self sufficient and navigated acclimating herself to everything since she arrived after we left. She gave thoughtful updates on my cat and I could tell she really enjoyed her, so that means the world to me! She left the place immaculate and we will certainly have Tonya back!
Cat and Paul were wonderful sitters - our cats were contented and calm when we returned. And the house was spotless. Plus Paul mowed our entire yard including the back meadow - what a surprise! We very much enjoyed visiting with them as well and getting to know them. Highly recommend :)
Steven was a great sitter for our black lab Souris and cat Pinot. They were well looked after and really liked Steven. Our house was in good order when we got back and Steven was kind enough to give us a lift to and from the airport. He was very flexible, arriving day early so we could show him around.
Is it better to board cats or leave at home?
Veterinarians advising to leave cats at home with a pet sitter who will stay overnight in your home, boarding is not recommended for cats as they are stressed in a new environment, you can find a sitter who will care for your cats and home overnight at Sittsy.
How much should you pay someone to watch your cat?
At least A$20 per visit, per overnight watching in your home, otherwise you can find a free sitter at Sittsy.
What do people do with their cats when they go on vacation?
Inviting a cat sitter to your home, boarding the cat with a local business, asking a friend, family or neighbour to feed and check the well-being. The most efficient way to leave your cat during your vacation is with Sittsy cat sitters overnight, in this way, you will save cat sitting costs and make vacation not only for you but also for your cat sitter!
The absolute best part of Winnie’s week is coming to Ultimutt. It’s evident in the way she runs into the place how well looked after and loved on she is! She loves all her doggy friends big and small. The best part is the quiet evening we get after picking her up, into the car and zzzzzzzz until the morning. 5/5 woofs from little Winnie 🐶
Love it Love Love it. Wendy and the girls run that place so well!! Milo is so happy there seeing his friends. Loads of activities and fun stuff to keep the dogs entertained. Highly recommend Ultimutt 🐶🐾🐾 …
Best doggie daycare on the planet.Staff amazing, patient caring and oozing love for all their fur babies. On behalf of my beloved Ted rated with love 110%
They have been taking care of our Mylo from day one, which was a huge lifesaver with a hyperactive pup home alone. They love, care, and spoil him just like we do! Can't praise this place enough!
Our girl Ellie loves it here. She always has a ball! I feel completely at ease leaving her in their care and she always comes home wrecked. I also love the daily Facebook updates so you can see the dogs interacting. Wendy and the staff are all lovely and I would highly recommend them! Thank you ☺️
Have had to switch my dogs over from a previous daycare due to a change of ownership going badly. I couldn’t be happier though as Tric and Floki have got their happy faces back when leaving Ultimutt Doghouse. The staff are always happy and friendly when greeting us and when we say goodbye at the end of the day. They also understand Tric and Floki’s needs and are non-judgemental when it comes to their enthusiastic behaviour. Can’t thank you enough, guys! ❤️🐕🐾
Bruno loves it here and so do we. Best day care! so caring and full of love and fun.
Excellent doggy Daycare. The Dogs are well taken care of by caring humans, and it shows!
Murphy’s trial went so well today, facility look great and Wendi was fantastic! Thanks so much for the excellent customer service and for taking care of Murphy 🤗🐶 we will be regulars for sure. …
Great place my puppy roxi is loving it burns some energy and the people who run it are fab , when I’m down from Moore river I can relax knowing roxi is having fun being a dog and not digging up my garden.
This was the second time we have had Codie look after our furry and feathered babies and we are so delighted with her work. We've never left them for more than 2 nights so were understandably worried but Codie was lovely. She sent photos to keep us updated and answered all queries. Codie was wonderful popping around before we left to double check our house and enclosures and to get a run down on all diet requirements. Would definately recommend.and use Codie again :)
Thank you again Codie for looking after my three baby Poms. It’s always hard to get away but when I can I know my fur babies are in the best possible hands. Thank you for providing the service you do. I will never place my dogs in a kennel and knowing they can stay home by your home visit service is reassuring knowing they are happy in their home environment.
Codie Joy & Chris are sensational! They have looked after our 6 “Furbabies” and couple of fish for 3 weeks with lots of love, care and professionalism. We couldn’t be happier!!! They have experience, qualification and flexibility, so we definitely will book them for the next holidays in couple of months. We are sure that Pellucio, Patchy, Francis, Marshmallow, Mimi and Max miss their “5 star step parents”!!! 😊 Thank you so much!
Great services, Codie from Little Whiskers has helped with our old dog, provided walking, feeding and general care. Always makes sure you are updated with how they are going with pictures and any other queries.
I highly recommend Fiona for anyone in need of a reliable, caring dog walker. From the moment we met, it was clear that she has a genuine love for dogs. Ralph immediately warmed up to her, and I could tell that my pup felt comfortable and safe. Fiona is punctual, professional, and communicative, always sending me updates and pictures from their walks, which is a nice touch. What I appreciate most is how Fiona tailors each walk to fit Ralph’s energy level and needs. Whether it's a calm stroll or a more energetic adventure, I know my dog is getting the exercise and attention he deserves. It’s clear that Fiona genuinely cares about the well-being of the dogs she walks, and that peace of mind is priceless. Overall, I couldn’t be happier with the service. If you’re looking for a trustworthy, passionate dog walker, look no further than Fiona. My dog and I are both fans!
I cannot recommend Fiona enough! She has been fantastic with our Staffy pup doing puppy home drop ins whilst I have had to be out for longer than normal. The reassurance of knowing Fiona was there checking on our little man, knowing he was being well looked after has been fantastic. Fiona's communication has also been brilliant which I have really appreciated.
Fiona looked after our psycho Border collie and our grumpy cat on many occasions whilst we were on holiday. She was great with the animals and we could relax knowing they were in good hands. We always returned to happy pets and a clean house! I would highly recommend Fiona as a dog walker and pet sitter.
Thank you for the 5 stars Nicolle. Its very appreciated 😍 …
Devina is amazing! She walks my dog three times a week and he’s always excited to see her. I think she’s his new favourite human 😂 will definitely continue to book in more walks. …
We had Pooch and Pals look after our dogs Kevin and Sparty recently and couldn’t recommend them any more highly. From the very first initial meet and greet they were warm and friendly and very professional. My partner and I were very comfortable and relaxed to leave the dogs with the girls. They have been booked again for another weekend soon.
This service is fantastic and affordable. They always go above and beyond. I will always use Pooch n Pals every time I need my cats looked after 🐈⬛ …
Big thanks to Puti who house-sat my two dogs Alice and Freddo. Both of them are a bit special and prefer to stay in their home whilst i'm away. She made sure they were well looked after, was able to follow their intricate feeding guide, give them medication, took them out for walks and kept me up to date with photos and messages. Both dogs were happy when I got home and the house was kept clean and tidy. Thanks so much!!
I'm delighted to share my positive experience with Pooch and Pals Pet Care. Toby has been exceptionally well looked after, and I can see the genuine care and attention given to him. He comes back so happy from his walks, a clear sign of the great service provided by Pooch and Pals. Highly recommend for pet owners seeking reliable and caring services!
My dogs, a staffy and a bull Arab, went for an adventure walk today with Puti and Devina. They were very professional and polite, it s clear that they love dogs.. My dogs instantly loved them too and went in the car with the girls with no issues. They sent me many pictures and updates during the morning, my pooches were definetly happy and had a lot of fun, come back home pretty tired 😊 Definitely will use than again and I will recommend the service to my friends too Thx ❤️❤️❤️
Appreciate all that you do for our animals. Puti always provides excellent care for our dog and cat when we are away. We have used her services for the last 4 years and will continue doing so. Highly recommend. Harry.
Puti & Devina were both amazing with our dog. You can really tell that they love animals :) Will be using them from now on :)
Thank you for taking such great care of my animals and house when I was away. It gave me great piece of mind knowing how well they were being looked after without the stress of leaving their home! So a massive thank you from us. Pip, Rza, Daisy and Puddles x
My two mini foxies spent 8 days over Christmas with Anton and had a great time! They came home happy, clean and settled which, from past experience tells me that they were well cared for at this facility. Thank you Anton.
We were very happy with our dogs stay. Anton was always available to communicate with and to adjust to pick up times. The kennels were clean and our dogs were well looked after. Our GSD is a picky eater and usually won't eat when separated from us but she ate well. It's such a relief to find a place where your dogs can stay and not feel guilty about leaving them behind.
highly recommend anton he keeps you updated on how ur dogs are going during their stay and the kennels are kept very clean, my dogs are always well looked after and happy when I pick them up. I feel safe knowing they take such good care of my fur babies.
Had my GSD in here a couple times as a plan B option as our usual kennels were full. First time I wasn't overly impressed with the cleanliness but figured it was only for a couple days. The second time we had to take our dog for a longer stay. As we arrived she refused to go in and pulled on her lead to get away. I struggled to take her inside but eventually got her into the kennel with some coaxing. We returned 10 days later to pick her up and she looked like a stray. Her coat was filthy and she absolutely stunk of stale urine like she has been laying in her own mess for days. The kennels are clearly not cleaned out regularly enough and I will not be taking my dog back here as the standard of care is way below what we expected.
My two dogs love coming here, always look happy and healthy when picked up. Clean and spacious kennels, with amazing staff. Definitely recommend taking your dogs to Anton
I was so pleased to board my Beagle with Anton. The reception was very friendly and professional. The environment was excellent with all the trees. I would recommend this kennel to anyone looking for a place for their dog.
I have used other kennels before but not like this one .The care and professionalism shown was exceptional and I will be using them again.
They took great care of our big, bouncy boy.
I couldn’t recommend Emily enough!!! The care she has given to our fur babies over the years has been unmatched. She has a genuine love for all animals and goes above and beyond every single visit. Unfortunately we no longer use Pet Friends due to a job change and moving house however I would highly recommend anyone needing a pet sitter to use Pet Friends & Emily. We can’t thank her enough for all the love she has given to our babies- mostly to Luna love bug- we are convinced he loves his aunty Em more than us!! You can be assured that your pets are in the best care.
Emily from Pet Friends provided exceptional care for my 5 much loved kitties, exceeding my expectations in every way. Her attention to detail and dedication to their daily routine were impressive. Upon my return, I was thrilled to find my kitties happy, healthy, and content. Emily's outstanding care and compassion have earned her a permanent spot as my go-to pet sitter. I'm already looking forward to booking her services again in November 2025. Thank you, Pet Friends, for your outstanding service of care and peace of mind.
I highly recommend pet friends From the very 1st phone call communication was clear and Sharon did all she could immediately from then the service was started and my pets were very taken care of I felt nervous at the start but it was very short lived as everything is documented and the reports were excellent I cant thank you enough for the response even as my request was very last minute.cant recommend enough
It is always a little nerve racking leaving fur children at home, but especially when they are old. We were so relieved with the care and compassion shown by Jenny from Pet Friends in looking after our 4 cats - 1 requiring some special care. Receiving daily updates and gorgeous photos helped with our stress of leaving them home and allowed us to really enjoy our holiday knowing they were in great hands. Thank you Jenny & thank you Pet Friends for your fabulous service.
She is usually very stress with stranger after attacked by a neighbour dog last year. Her first time boarding with Helen for 9 days when I am away to attend business conference. I can see that she is well taken care of and happy. Thanks Helen for being patience and giving so much love to her and keep me updated. I am one happy fur mama. Highly recommend!!
We have used Pet Friends twice now, both times with Susan pet-sitting for our GSP puppy. The booking process was a pleasure and Susan is a confident and experienced dog handler. We look forward to using Pet Friends again in the future and are grateful for their efficient service thus far.
We Highly Recommend! Cathy took the time bond and understand our Dogs needs. The service reports put our mind at ease with the updates and photos. We knew he was in good hands. This was our first time using a pet sitting service and we will definitely be booking again! Thanks Again to Cathy and the Pet Friends team. :)
They are so nice, professional and patient with fare price. Elsa and Shelley are the best for taking care of Guinean pigs. I highly recommend them! They will send pictures and notes to me every time after they take care of my piggies, and they help me feed them and clean the space. They are great!
We returned home from our little getaway down South. Walked in and the house was immaculate ! Cathy went above and beyond our expectations ! Our dog Bowie was extremely well cared for, happy and content. We cannot praise Cathy high enough ! We will be recommending Petfriends to all our friends ! A big thank you to Sharon and all staff at Petfriends, especially Cathy, for such an amazing service. Kay Hayes 🙂🌺
We used the team at Pet Friends last month after our other pet-sitting plans fell through last minute. Their admin staff were very timely and professional with their communication and the sitter did an exceptional job with our pets and our home. We will continue to use their services in the future and definitely recommend them to others.
Highly recommend Lauren Bray, her company and staff. You won't find anyone more professional and passionate about working with animals.
Darcie loves Fresh Fur Dog Daycare and Grooming! Our 3 1/2 year old Groodle has been attending Fresh Fur for about 3 years now. She gets so excited when we pull up, dancing around and eager to get in. It's a chance for her to mix with the other dogs and play while it's her turn to be groomed. She loves having a bath and the pampering she receives from Bec and the staff. We're very happy with the services they offer and highly recommend them to other Puppy and Dog owners.
Tilly has been coming to Fresh fur for 2 years. She loves coming for her groom and enjoys the interaction with the other dogs.Tilly always comes home smelling and looking gorgeous.
Very poor customer service and amenities. Had to chase owners up for weeks to get a reply on basic things that could have been addressed in 2 minutes. Place is always too crowded, mixing big dogs with small dogs with a very poor way of introducing them to each other as a dog care owner should know as I have seen other reviews with the same problem. The standard of cleanliness is ridiculous and the understanding of each dogs needs and the effort to make puppies that are not used to that environment comfortable and happy are inexistent. Pricing is not clear at all. Website and quote given were $49.50 and they charged me “casual daycare fee” of $60 without explaining the reason behind it, even tho I would take my dog there for a large number of days as advised to the owners. My second dog was taken there for a trial of $20 as stated in the website and by them and was also charged $60, again, without any explanation or discussion about it. It makes it very expensive for a place that cant offer what they promise you. I will definetely not take my dogs there again and hope they can take their time to read the reviews and actually use it to make improvements and not only to reply making lame excuses for their service and behaviours.
The proof is how excited Jacob becomes when I drive up to the daycare centre. I have complete peace of mind going into work every day knowing that he is cared for and happily entertained; he returns home sleepy. I would recommend fresh for doggy daycare to anyone. The staff are friendly, helpful and clearly love looking after the doggies
Our fur kids can not get out of the car fast enough at drop off! Our oldest has a disability and we were hesitant at first to send him, because he has been bullied before by other dogs. However, the team at Fresh Fur Dog Daycare has been incredible! He is now boasting of confidence and loves playing with the other dogs. I highly recommend this dedicated Daycare centre.
My Leo loves going to school (daycare), he gets so excited when I tell him it's school day and he gets to see his friends. He's cared for, gets socialisation and enrichment through different forms of play. Definitely recommend 👌 …
Amazing and super friendly hang out for my pup! Mine was very shy for the first few visits but he became very confident after that! He can’t wait now to arrive each week and play with his friends, even the big ones! Andrew and other staff members are super friendly, provide detail information and updates on my pup’s visits.. they will answer any question you may have! Very safe place to let your fur baby make new friends!! Highly recommended!!
They looked after my best mate for the day and gave him bath and pampering. We'll definitely be back again.
I have been taking my 3 doggies to Bec for the past 5 years and I would not go anywhere else. Highly recommend. Not only does Bec do a fantastic job grooming them but they love to play with the other dogs in the daycare. 🥰💝💝💝💝💝
Poppy has been attending fresh fur dog daycare for 1 year now, she loves to go and play with all the other dogs. The staff our brilliant with her as she can be scared of new people she meets. I would highly recommend Fresh Fur Dog Daycare and Grooming. This is what she does when she gets home.
Used these guys a lot over the years, sadly Charmaine has left she was great but new guy Anton seems very nice. Kennels are clean, well thought out, prices reasonable dogs always come home happy and healthy and they seem to have made friends with the keeper. 2023 was scary due to a bush fire getting very close, charmaine kept in touch and assured us overseas with communication and that she had plans and volunteers at the ready. We returned twice since and will again.
We had our boy Gary stay for a week and it was a breeze from the booking to pick up We will definitely use again . Our boy had plenty of space and exercise area. The kennels are very clean . Very happy with the service from Charmaine.
Left our greyhound for about 4 days everything went smoothly it was his first time
What a wonderful place to take my Blue Staffy Zeus for 10 days. Charmaine and the team provided a wonderful and caring service to my pooch, I could tell by his happy demeanour and shiny coat when I picked him up. Many many thanks and can highly recommend.
We boarded our two dogs, one which is 16 and they were well looked after. Both happy and healthy after a week of care. We will definitely use Donna again. Great price and great bush setting.
My little furbaby had the best time. Donna was fantastic and she loved looking after my dog. He was in there for a week and when I picked him up he looked brushed and clean and he was happy. Best kennels ihve found in Perth. Definitely taking our Chihuahua "Rabbit" back to Australann Kennels again
My toy poodle Pixie loves to go to Australann. Since she spends up to 3 weeks at a time here and is very happy and excited each time she returns here. She comes home happy and healthy. Donna( lady in charge of her care) is wonderful with her and Pixie loves her. I am really happy we have found somewhere really nice
Small dog kennels are clean and spacious. Small dogs let out together for periods in the day. Kept separate from big dogs.
Our Chihuahua has been going to the small dog kennels periodically for 9 years. We are always welcomed and Donna is great with him. Would recommend!
Charmaine was so lovely with our big dog and very accommodating managing to get us a booking with short notice during the busy school holidays
