Need more information about Pet Sitting in East Melbourne VIC?

Travel planning can instantly ignite stress for a dog owner. Choosing the right service, however, can extinguish that anxiety immediately. Mad Paws clientele have found our Pet Sitting optimal to give their dog a safe and caring environment. Our pet minders in East Melbourne VIC welcome your dog in and make them feel at home. Mad Paws helps you leave behind the increased risk of diseased/aggressive animals, the variety of unknown caregivers, and the high cost of kennel care, so that, both you and your pet can be at ease when separated. Advantages of Pet Sitting are:
  • Affordable – Pet Sitting can meet your budget because you have a vast variety of pet minders to choose from. This gives you more options than kennel care, options of quality care that will not break your bank.

  • No to Cages! - In a Pet Sitting location your dog will not be confined as they would in a caged kennel, thus, reducing their stress. They will be in a home environment with room to roam and relax. While a pet minder isn’t you, we believe it is the next best thing.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • Safety First - Your dog will be cared for in a loving intimate setting, not confined with many other animals. With Mad Paws the Pet Sitting environment would have the option of a sitter with a few well socialized pets, or just your pet alone with the sitter. This would be set up to meet the individual needs of your dog.

  • Comfort of Routine – Mad Paws wants you and your dog to meet your pet minder prior to making your first payment. This gives the opportunity to lay out your pet’s daily routine for the pet minder. Having their routine implemented will give dog a positive outlook and they will find comfort in it.
