Doggy day care at the sitter’s home

Day care for while you are away
A doggy day care sitter will provide day time supervision and loving care for your dog in their home.
Day care is a perfect choice for giving your dog additional enrichment during the day. Our sitters can also offer puppy day care to give your puppy additional socialisation while they are young.
The personalised experience our sitters provide means that your dog can enjoy their day in a relaxed and safe, home environment. This is a much better alternative to crowded commercial dog day care centres.

Bianca was a great pet carer! She took wonderful care of my dog, treating her like her own. From daily walk updates to photos, she kept me informed every step of the way. I came home to a happy, well-cared dog. I wouldn’t hesitate to book Bianca again — highly recommended!

Thank you, Estanislao, for taking such great care of Nara! Your cat is very comfortable around dogs, and Nara absolutely loved her stay with them. Estanislao kept us updated every day with photos and messages, which gave us great peace of mind. He’s a fantastic pet sitter, and we’ll definitely contact him again next time. Highly recommended!
