Janis and her husband Dan were beyond phenomenal! Communication was great leading up to their arrival, especially with coordinating arrival and departure times. And during the sit, I got lots of picture updates throughout of how Isabel was doing. I could tell from the pictures how comfortable and happy my dog was hanging out with Janis and Dan and getting all the pets and attention. Coming home, everything was left so clean and organized. I definitely recommend them as pet sitters as they clearly took such good care of both my pup and my home.
Prashant and India were fantastic pets sitters for us. Both were dependable and were even kind enough to allow some service people into the home to do some repairs. Our dogs were well looked after and we got daily updates on how the dogs were doing. Prashant is very knowledgeable and gave us a few strategies to combat some negative behaviors that we were seeing with the dogs. Could not recommend them more. They will be missed.
Sharon was a fantastic sitter for our week away! She left the house as tidy and clean as we left it, including changing the sheets for our arrival. I truly cannot even tell she was here and that made coming home after a long travel day so much easier. She was communicative every step of the way and provided daily updates on our cat with photos. We knew our home and pet were in good hands! I would gladly welcome Sharon back any time should we be so lucky : )
Leah was an excellent pet sitter and take care of our home when we were on vacation. Our dogs were sad when she left. She even made us some delicious tacos when we got home from the airport! We highly recommend her!
Caitlyn, KJ, and their pup Sully were excellent house guests and pet sitters, and we would highly recommend them! I was able to meet Caitlyn and KJ prior to them house sitting for us, and we are always super appreciative when sitters are able to make that work and are willing to take time out of their schedule to come over and get the lay of the land. Their dog Sully was full of good boy energy and was a great playmate for our two Golden Retrievers. During the stay, Caitlyn & KJ sent us photos every day and followed all of our instructions for pet care to a T. They were super self-sufficient and gracious guests that left our place looking just like it did when we left, and we were very at peace knowing that our dogs were in great hands, getting lots of exercise, and romping around with new friend Sully. Don't hesitate to book this family of three, your house and your pets will be well-looked after!
I had the pleasure of having Tracey and her two children as house sitters, and I can't praise them enough for the incredible job they did. From the moment they stepped into our home, it was evident that they were dedicated, caring, and attentive to every detail. First and foremost, Tracey's approach to caring for our house and our beloved pets was nothing short of excellent. She has an innate ability to connect with animals, and it was clear from the daily updates and photos that our pets were happy and thoroughly pampered. The house was kept in immaculate condition, and they treated it with the utmost respect as if it was their own. Moreover, Tracey demonstrated remarkable responsibility and initiative when our AC system unexpectedly broke down. Without hesitation, she arranged for an HVAC company to come and fix the issue, taking time from her day to ensure our home was taken care of. Her willingness to front the repair costs until I could reimburse her was an act of kindness and trust that you rarely see. Tracey and her children's thoughtfulness and thoroughness provided me with peace of mind during my time away, which is priceless. I returned to a home that was just as I left it, if not better. Their stay was characterized by an extraordinary level of care and I was particularly impressed by how they left the house in perfect condition, with happy pets to welcome me back. I wholeheartedly recommend Tracey to any future hosts. Her reliability, compassion, and the ability to handle unexpected situations with grace are commendable. I would welcome Tracey and her children back to house sit in a heartbeat – they are exactly the kind of house sitters that one hopes for on this site! Thank you, Tracey, for everything. You and your children are welcome back anytime!
Ce was an amazing house sitter for our best bud Atlas. She not only took amazing care of our needy pup, she took great care of the home as well. I honestly think she left it cleaner than I left it for her! We certainly hope she is around the next time our best friend needs a friend. If you're looking for a responsible caregiver for your pets and home - look no further!
Mikala & Jake were great house & pet sitters for us!! Our dog and two cats absolutely adored them, and we came back to a very clean home with happy animals :) They were very reliable and fast communicators. They even had to deal with our power going out while we were away, and they handled it well. It eased our minds to know our animals and house were in such great care while we were away and would have them sit for us anytime!
Jennifer was great and I would highly recommend her. Right from the start, Jennifer was clear and helpful in her communication, and she was very available to us throughout the stay via messaging. She sent pics of our fur babies regularly - without asking - which always makes us happy when we're away. And the biggest compliment I can give: when we came home, our pets were relaxed and happy, and no hidden cat messes to be found (we've had this happen with previous sitters a lot). I would love to have Jennifer stay at our home again in future.
For our first experience with a house sitter, Jim and Julie have set the bar high. We felt totally confident that any issues would be dealt with, fortunately there were none. They were outstanding house and pet sitters whom we would wholeheartedly recommend to anyone. They took exceptional care of our house full of pets from 2 large dogs, 3 cats, snake, gecko, fish tank and a koi pond. They provided updates daily, were very easy to communicate with and the house was just as clean as when we left it, with the addition of a nice welcome home gift. We knew our pets were in good hands. Thank you for everything. Melissa and Kyle

My raven and Whiskey absolutely love their doggy daycare and they love all the lady's that look after them!
My dog patch loves going to doggy day care,he has so much fun,,the staff are so friendly.
My 2 little dogs absolutely love going . Highly recommended.
Our dog absolutely LOVES going to Scout About. Could not recommend the staff or the daycare centre enough. We have her washed there too and they do an incredible job. Bodhi is always happy to see us but I think deep down she wishes she could stay longer! 50 million stars from us! Thanks guys!
My border collie cannot get enough of Scout About. He started puppy kindy at 4 months old and absolutely loved having fun with Loren, Pammy and the team on Mondays. Now at 14 months, he goes more regularly and practically jumps out the car window as we turn into the carpark because he cannot wait to get in and play. When we have gone to kennels or attended dog parks, Dusty is praised for his social skills and I think this is a credit to Scout About and the exposure and experiences there that have made him the dog he is today. I am so grateful and we will miss the team so much when we move to Perth. Thank you for everything and we could not recommend you enough 🥰
We'd highly recommend Loren and the Scout About Doggie Day Care team for house pet visits. Loren was quick to respond when our holiday pet care arrangements fall through last minute, and the booking process online was very simple. We received daily updates and photos from our pet sitter, Michelle, who was very respectful of our dogs and used various methods to build trust with them. We'll be continuing to use Scout About for future pet sitting :)
Amazing place the dogs are so well looked after.
Loren and her team are amazing, so caring! My dogs love going for their play day. They are exhausted when they get home.
Our fur babies were fortunate enough to have Belinda from Scout About look after them. Belinda not only looked after all their needs but also sent messages and videos to me. Scout about are not only professional but also give time and care to the fur babies while we were away. Thank you Belinda :)
Great place to take your dog to doggy day care, my dog loves it, and when we get home after I've had a long day, he just wants to sleep. Which is brilliant!
Sarah has been a godsend when I got my first working dog and went for the vocal Huntaway, she warned me prior to purchase, I didn't listen. He attended obedience class, one on ones, and was taught controlled play. Steves 18 months now, and although I didn't listen to everything, he's great! So now we have Keith the Kelpie. This time I'm listening to everything she sailys! I've seen what happens when I don't! Looking forward to taking keiith to his first class, and steve to his next! Without her, I would be going in sane!
Sarah has been and is phenomenal with both dogs and their humans. Her guidance, support, friendly caring nature and experience with training and building bonds with your pet is second to none. I have learnt so much and our pixie has come so far with Sarah's guidance. Your pets are in the best hands when Sarah is around.
We first met Sarah when we booked Murphy in for a board and train while we were going away for a week. Murphy is a German Shepherd who was yet to turn 1 and very strong. We were finding it hard to walk him as he was pulling so much. We also weren’t confident with his recall. During the week Murphy was with Sarah she sent messages, pictures and videos updating us on how he was going. When we picked him up and had the consult with Sarah it was amazing to see what she had been able to achieve within the week. We will always be thankful for Sarah for giving us the freedom and confidence to have Murph off lead, and good walking behaviours. Over the last 3 years Murphy has boarded with Sarah a number of times (including a 6 week stay) and he is always very excited to go to her place - he doesn’t even look back for us when we leave 🥹. We have also done some group classes with Sarah which were just as great as her 1 on 1. We trust Sarah to look after our boy as we would 🤎🐾
Sarah is working wonders with us & our fur baby ( who is a rescue dog) Only wish we linked in with her when we got our pooch @ 16 months vs now @ 3.5 yrs . However it's never to late to learn ! Her encouragement , repetition of examples whilst maintaining a positive firmness makes training pleasurable. Soft lead walking is no longer a dream ! Looking forward to group classes to improve dog socialization skills . Think we're onto this !!
I have been lucky enough to have know Sarah as my dog / human trainer for the pasted 2 + years. I have always had dogs in my life but after meeting Sarah my confidence in myself being a good dog owner / pack leader for my now 3 dogs is invaluable. I have been able to integrate a rescue dog and a new puppy into my 1 dog household with the advice and training from Sarah. Sarah is also training myself and one of my dogs to be a service dog for my father who has dementia. Her no nonsense approach is very much appreciated, she works out what is required to help with any behavioural issue or other requirements needed within your household. I must confess it was ME that needed the training more than the dogs.
Sarah works in a professional and friendly way to help your dog be the best dog it can be! I have had several 1:1 sessions with my reactive dog (reactive to dogs, bikes, scooters) to help reduce this, as well as offering lots of useful tips in how to reduce barking at the front door and lead pulling. Sarah has also helped me develop my relationship with my dog to increase her trust and engagement with me. We have attended some group sessions which has really helped me with managing my own anxiety when we are around other dogs. Sarah is always happy to chat and help, even when not at a structured session. We would not go anywhere else.
Sarah was attentive to our story and carefully formed insightful views about Tilly's timidity and reluctance to do things on which she wasn't keen. Sarah handled Tilly beautifully while gently maintaining discipline. Sarah's approach was gentle but firm. We now have a plan and will be hoping for steady progress over time.
Sarah the trainer was a nice enough person, but has a personal bias toward certain dog breeds specifically as she would call it “bully breeds” or Rottweilers. Several times it was mentioned that my puppy was not allowed to look, engage or go near any dog especially the ones smaller than him because the puppies are impressionable. We understand this, but our puppy is 16 weeks old, he’s learning. He doesn’t bark, growl or bite, he is well mannered and listens majority of the time. We were made to feel alienated by having a big dog around puppies, even though he himself is a puppy! This class is advertised from 8-22 weeks, if you have a dog that isn’t the size of a kitten I’d recommend not wasting your money. The class is advertised as doing the below: Managing puppy behavior's Socialization Confidence building Basic fun obedience with a big focus on Recall For 45 minutes of the class you walk your dog around on different equipment which is not suited to all dogs. There is 0 socialisation, as your dog isn’t allowed to look, interact, or meet any other people or dogs (at least mine wasn’t allowed to.) On both weeks we attended the class my puppy’s size was mentioned in a negative way, we will not be returning and would not recommend this class to anyone with a big size breed dog.
Sarah is a fantastic trainer. She worked closely with Yogi my blue staffy to improve his recall, staying on his bed while my toddler throws food on the floor in front of him, reducing reactivity and resource guarding with him and my other dog and at pulling on the lead. We opted for a board and train after a few private sessions and after 2 weeks, yogi came back a different dog. Its insane being able to tell him to sit and lie down and walk to the other side of a school oval before you release and call him to sprint back over to you. He's much better and comes even if hes in seagull chase mode at the beach. It really made all the difference and he had a great time too! Highly recommend using Sarah.
Awesome dog trainer. Sarah is very professional and her knowledge and experience is outstanding. My gsd is very quick to follow her instructions and expertise. He's thriving everyday with sarah and at home. Thankyou so much
Coralie and Ralph looked after our home and blue heeler, Zeus, for just over 2 weeks while my husband and I went travelling. We loved that we got regular updates and videos of him having a blast going for walks and playing ball (his favourite!) - it made us feel at ease knowing he was happy while we were gone. Unfortunately, just prior to us arriving home, Zeus picked up a bug and became unwell but Coralie and Ralph wasted no time in getting Zeus into the vet so he could be checked over and treated, keeping us in the loop the whole time. Even with us arriving home a day earlier than expected, the house and yard were immaculate and Zeus was on the mend. I can’t recommend Coralie and Ralph enough - they treated our boy as if he were their own which is exactly what every pawrent wants! We will be back in touch next time we go on holidays. 😊
I can't recommend Ralph and Coralie highly enough. We have trusted them to look after our family dog, cat, chickens and house and we can go away stress free knowing they will keep an eye on our property and feed our pets. They are passionate animal lovers and will look after your pets as well as you would. I will never use a boarding kennel or cattery again. The rates are very reasonable and I feel we get great value for our money.
these guys are amazing at their work. they are clean and organized. they are loving people, extremely nice and inviting. really recommended
