24 HOUR CARE
Most dogs do best in their home environment while their owners are away. If your dog frets or suffers separation anxiety or night barking, the second best thing is 24 hour care in an expert dog sitters home environment.
Our 24 hour carers and experienced carers and dog lovers. See our carers page to find the nearest care to you. All supervised dog walks will be covered by Dog Walkers Melbourne Public Liability Insurance. Full details can be found under the Policy section of this site.
THE PROCESS
1) Phone or email for a consultation or quote.
Please email or fill out our contact form with your required start and end dates for a quick quote.
2) We will forward you a quote for the care period requested.
2) Dog profile sheet
Should our service be of interest to you we ask you complete a dog profile sheet that includes your preferences such as walk requirements, snacks allowed and health issues etc. Dog Profile Sheet.
3) Contact with carer
Most clients prefer to meet with their carer before the pet sit but we know this is not always possible due to short booking times. Our carer will contact you to arrange a time to meet your dog and discuss their needs.
4) Drop your dog off at carers or Pet Sit.
If your dates are extended whilst you are away you will need to notify us as soon as possible so we can extend your dogs stay.
CLIENT RESPONSIBILITY
>Just like on any dog walk, clients need to provide collars, leads and car harnesses in good repair.
> If your dog has preferred bedding, please supply that as well. Otherwise general clean blankets will be used.
> All food and feeding instructions are to be provided by clients. Because this is 24 hour care, frozen or raw food can also be provided by clients.
