Cassandra was everything you can wish for when entrusting your home and pets to someone. It was our first experience and she was extremely helpful in suggesting how to set it up. She was flexible to our needs, wants, and last minute changes. She was very quick in establishing a good relationship with our pets and to adapt to their specific needs, even with the most naughty and shy ones. One of the dog under her care, Kiwi, who is our son’s dog, got a paw infection due to grass seeds and Cassandra dealt with it efficiently and kindly, organising vet and care and interacting directly with my son and his partner so they would not have to come back and were reassured and happy with the care. She also communicated with us all during the stay, with lovely and funny pictures of our pets, allowing us to relax and enjoy our holiday. After what became a month long stay, we came back home to a perfectly kept house and 4 happy pets, eager to keep Cassandra as their fairy godmother!
Tomoko stayed with my two easy going cats for a week. She was reliable, communicative, self-sufficient and clean. I would trust her to sit again without hesitation.
Kealoha and George spoiled our pets while we were away. We had a worry-free vacation because we knew our fur babies were in good hands. We were happy to meet them.

Anne has been part of our "family" since we bought home our gorgeous puppy home in June 2020. She was a saviour while we were in isolation at various times, including trips to the vet for us. Rocket absolutely adores Anne, and has the best time with his 4-legged friends. He goes on group walks at least once a week, and up to 3 times/wk - and comes home so happy and exhausted.
Anne has been an absolute delight to deal with since we first met when training our new border collie puppy. We booked Anne for a 4 hour 1:1 session and it set us up with the right tools to ensure we had little Jerry set up to be successful in his training. We then signed up for group walks (playgroup) and we now have Jerry in Tuesday - Friday. He absolutely LOVES the socialising and making new friends. It’s his fav part of the week, and you can see his excitement when Anne picks him up each day!
Anne is a caring, kind and thoughtful dog walker. She genuinely cares for the dogs and understands each one has is an individual with likes and dislikes. Our dog was a little anxious with other dogs but going out regularly with Anne has increased her confidence and happiness. I cannot recommend Anne enough. She speaks fluent dog!
We had Anne in a couple of weeks ago to do a 3 hour course to teach myself and my daughter how to train our 20 week old Cavoodle called Sadie. Anne was absolutely fabulous with the techniques she taught us, the knowledge and patience she has was amazing (especially with a 14 year old who wasn’t very interested in learning). She ended up spending 7 hours all up and the notes she sent were excellent as I’d forgotten a lot of the information from the day. She had a naturally kind and positive way with Sadie and you can just tell how much she loves her job. I have been putting all her training into action and it’s working like a treat with Sadie. I would highly recommend Anne to anyone looking for a trainer, walker or pet sitter as she’s totally awesome and I would absolutely trust her with our beautiful fur baby. Rebekah Flood Port Melbourne
Anne has been walking and helping train our 2 German shepherds for a number of months and has been amazing with them. They are always so happy to see her. Anne's communication from day one has been prompt and professional. I could not recommend her more.
Anne is fantastic - she’s reliable, knowledgable, responsible and caring. We have a sometimes-nervous doggo (Bonnie) who Anne has helped through both an obedience session and group dog walks. I can’t express how much, at every point, Anne has gone above and beyond in providing ongoing advice and support that has all genuinely helped us to understand Bonnie. I love seeing how happy Bonnie is on the group walks from the many pictures and videos that Anne shares during the session. We are always relaxed knowing Bonnie is in Anne’s capable care. If anyone is looking for any kind of doggo support/care/advice - Bonnie and I would recommend Anne 100%.
I'd booked a family holiday over the Xmas period and Anne was our saving grace. She took care of our 2 Cavoodles with daily walks, a few treats and lots of cuddles. Anne was frequently in touch sending photos and videos whilst we were away, it really was reassuring to know the dogs were in great care and happy during our absence. There's no doubting Anne's incredible love of animals. She's super friendly, very professional and our dogs just love her. Highly recommended.
Anne has been a great help with our less than easy to manage puppy. Our chosen breed has been a handful from the day she arrived, we love her but jeepers! Anne's calm demeanour and her deep knowledge has helped us through the first year. We have implemented a range of Anne's suggested management strategies and these have made the situation better. We have no hesitation in recommending the Queen of the Hounds business and intend engaging Anne again in the future.
Anne has been a godsend for our rescue, little Astro. He has anxiety and missed out on some essential education as a pup. Anne has house sat for us several times & deals with his quirks happily. He has grown & is learning how to dog as part of a weekly group walk. Highly recommended
Could not be happier with Queen of the Hounds. She formed a great - instant - relationship with our Labrador and she kept us informed of his adventures through videos. Anne clearly loves dogs and we felt extremely comfortable handing our boy over to her. Highly recommend!
Great communication and great service. We booked grooming appointment for my two sheebs. Adrian took the time to walk them and get familiar with them so as to make bathing easier. Shout out to Adrian and Martin for taking such good care of our pups! Would recommend and will come back!
Couldn't be happier with MDN Pet Care! They were amazing with our two Groodles. We loved getting regular updates and seeing all the fun they were having in the photos. It's clear these guys are true dog lovers, and we felt completely at ease leaving our pups in their care. We've already booked them again - highly recommend!
I couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter! MDN pet care were attentive, kind, and completely understood my dog’s introverted personality. At nearly 12 years old, my pup needs a little extra patience and care, and they provided both effortlessly. The updates were thoughtful and frequent—I always knew my dog was in good hands. From gentle walks to respecting my pup’s need for quiet downtime, they truly went above and beyond. I came home to a happy, relaxed dog, which speaks volumes about the quality of care they provided. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a reliable and compassionate sitter.
Martin & Adrian are the best! So caring and attentive to my little 5 month old puppy! Will recommend and definitely be a repeat client! :) Loved the regular updates and hearing about her day when I picked her up after work!
Adrian and Martin are so lovely and welcoming! 😊 My puppy absolutely loves getting groomed there. The team are perfectionists and take their time ensuring your puppy finds it a positive experience. 🐶 They also send you cute pictures as they go with updates can’t recommend enough! 😊 …
As co-parents, we never thought we would have to leave both our babies for three weeks, and there is no one who came to mind but MDN. Adrian has been more than a foster parent to Gogo and Momo. In these last three weeks, we have seen both babies get so comfortable and loving in the company of Adrian, almost so that they are going to miss him badly. Thank you so much for such personalized care of my cats like they are your own. Thank you for sharing continuous updates and sharing their snippets every day. You not only give us reassurance but also make us believe that our babies are in the best hands in Melbourne.❤️
We left our baby Cookie with MDN Pet Care for 43 days! This was the second time we were using MDN team’s services and we’re just as happy with the results as we were the first time. Throughout the course Adrian gave us regular updates and was prompt with his replies. He took amazing care of Cookie. She adjusted well with the other pets there and was in a great condition when we brought her home again. I would 100% recommend MDN Pet Care to anyone looking for a safe home for their fur babies!
I hired Martin and Adrian from MDN Pet Care to look after my pets from my house while I travelled overseas. They did an amazing job following our given instructions and send lots of updates. We came home and I can tell my pets had really built a bond with them. And my house was also safe and sound. If you’re looking for a pet sitter who is reliable to pet sit your pets at your house I would recommend MDN Pet Care. I will also be using their grooming services too!
MDN pet care is a great service for looking after your dogs. I’ve been away 2 weeks for holiday and my pet has been looked after so well by Adrian, he’s so nice & sweet! he updated me photos about my dog every day and my pet seemed to be happy being with him. Additionally, the price is so reasonable! I would recommend this service to any dog lovers 👍🏻👌
Adrian and Martin took great care of Billy. He was really happy to spend time in their care, and it was a huge help for us! Will return.
Tayla has been walking our dog for a few months now and she's honestly the best dog walking service I've ever had. The dog is always excited to go on walks with them. He's always pooped after the walks. Really professional service and always quick to reply to changes in service requests. Plus you get really cute photos of your pooch on every stroll
I moved to Sydney in March 2018, I was really worried that bringing my Australian cattle dog to the big city was going to be a big disadvantage for her life. I quickly found Tayla through a mail drop in my local area. Once Tayla started walking / looking after Coconut (daycare) all my worries went out the window. Tayla is one of the most epic women I have ever met. She is caring and kind and looks after all the dogs like there her own. I felt like Coconut was as loved with Tayla as much as with me. Coconut always came home tired as though she had been for a gigantic walk (which is what she needs). Tayla is so understanding and adaptable to all of the dogs that she looks after. I cannot recommend her enough!
Our puppy Lonnie was so beautifully taken care of by Tayla during his three night sleep-over. Lons is a real homebody and takes time to get to know new peeps in his life - when we met Tayla we knew we instantly knew he'd be a-ok! We loved seeing the photos of his doggy adventures and Tayla kept us up to date on how he was doing. Tayla, thanks for all your care and love for Lonnie. He gives you four paws up!
Tayla is an amazing dog walker! We have an anxious dog, and he loved going out on adventures with Tayla! He even became less reactive towards other dogs and more friendly when he meets dogs! He especially loved going on swimming trips to the beach, and would come home very happy! We highly recommend Tayla! She is very trustworthy and caring, and we appreciate all that she did to help us with our dog!
Tayla loves dogs and dogs love her. She is amazing!! I highly recommend Tails with Tayla for anyone looking for someone who they can trust to take care of their dog in a fun, energetic and safe way! 5 stars plus.
Tayla is a wonderful person who has the dogs best interest's at heart. My dog adores Tayla and the friends she has introduced to her. Tayla took on another client's gorgeous dog who was extremely timid but patiently working with her and Introducing this dog to mine, has encouraged and brought the timid young dog out of her shell and they have lots of fun together. Fantastic Tayla, thank you
Tayla is an absolutely incredible and devoted pet professional! I always feel completely assured in leaving my dog Otis with her! He always has an amazing time, is always wearing a smile apon his return and rarely wants to come home with me after! Incredibly flexible and cooperative. I wouldn't trust anyone else in the world with my Dog as much i would Tayla!!!!!
I took my Doggo Milo to Tayla after a not so good experience with daycare, Milo has HEAPS of energy, so I was so surprised to see him fast asleep on the couch when I got home. Thanks so much Tayla!
Tayla is the best! Our dog loves playing with the other dogs and she handles his never ending energy amazingly! He always comes back super tired after a day with Tayla and omelette. Would highly recommend her.
Tayla is an amazing person with an exceptional work ethics. She goes above and beyond with my puppy every time. Excellent communicator and treats all he pups with extra care. so much respect for this girl :)
Our dog goes twice a week and is so excited to get in the door! He’s full of energy but the structure, exposure and controlled environment of Pro Dog Daycare means both he and us enjoy and are satisfied with his days there. The staff are always so lovely and caring, we couldn’t recommend it more if we tried.
I highly recommend ProDog. My 3 year old Viszla has been going to daycare here for a year and a half. She loves it and we love how much care and effort the pro dog team put in every single day. The dogs staying with them aren’t just cared for and provided play time. Daily routines are well structured and involve lots of play time, enrichment and training exercises, monitoring of behaviour/interactions by very well trained staff and of course daily photo and video updates of the pups on their Facebook page.
Our dog Waylon (whippet-cross) has been attending Prodog daycare once a week for about 18 months. We cannot praise the professionalism, knowledgeability and friendliness of the trainers at daycare enough. We love that every week he is placed with a group of dogs he is familiar with, and that he has formed really close friendships (wrestling buddies) with a couple of dogs in particular. The dogs have "exposure" sessions where they get used to being around various objects and activities, such as basketballs, scooters, or a person relaxing. Waylon also loves cuddles with the trainers. We consider his one day a week at daycare a major reason he is such a happy well-rounded dog. Waylon also attended training at Prodog Training, from puppy school to level 2 and an agility class, and we have been equally impressed by the training and service there. We feel very lucky to live near such high quality dog daycare and training.
My partner and I decided to look into a doggy daycare that cared after a few incidents at another popular doggy daycare. That's when we came across Pro Dog Daycare! Not only is it local for the West but we have loved the whole experience with them. Even our little pup looks forward to his daycare days which makes drop off even better! They really care about the dog's well being, behaviour and are so attentive. I highly recommend the services at Pro Dog Daycare. I also love their daily video and posts so you can spot your little pup having a good time. Such a great team at Pro Dog.
I Wouldn't take our dogs anywhere else. The team at Prodog are always friendly, welcoming and happy. The facility is clean, well maintained, presentable and our dogs love being there. We have an elderly boxer and temperamental frenchy, they are both looked after extremely well!
You can tell that they’re genuinely passionate about training and they simply love every single dog that walks through the door. We have been training with Nicole since my puppy Bella was 6 months old and she is simply brilliant with Bella. Bella absolutely loves going to training.
Can’t say enough about how much I’ve enjoyed and learnt in Sallie’s Difficult Dogs Program! Positive and supportive environment and brilliant advice made easy to understand and communicate with/to my GSD. Highly recommend this program to anyone with reactive dogs!! I’ve learnt so much in such a short time already. If I could give 10 stars I would. Thanks so much Sallie for sharing your insights and knowledge and for allowing me the safe , non judgemental space and support to be confident in handling those “blow up” situations. ( post class nap required lol)
My pup loves his weekly daycare visit. The team are super friendly and give the dogs a wonderful, safe experience
Nilla loves going to daycare here and playing with her dog friends. It's been great for her socializing and interactions with dogs of all breeds and sizes. She always comes home happy and ready to have a loooong nap. The team at Pro dog daycare are super friendly, knowledgeable and provide expert service. At every drop off I leave knowing she'll be in good hands 😊
So many good things about ProDog. My pupper perks up as soon as we turn into Paramount Rd because he knows where we are going. When I first got him his over exuberant greeting of other dogs, unfortunatly put off a lot of potential puppy pals. But daycare has helped so much with his socialisation. Now he has his doggo buddies and he just loves his time there. The staff are super friendly. Several times I've had to adjust our times and days and they've been very accomodating. The facility is always clean and they clearly spend time exposing the dogs to new things. I love seeing their photo's and videos online. Seriously, if you're having a bad day, lookup thier facebook or instagram page and see all the happy doggos running around everyday. Instant smiles
I cannot recommend Loose Lead Pets highly enough. Our 10yo Airedale Terrier has been a client since day one and has benefitted so much from socialisation and exercise with the LLP team. Her canine walk partners are always carefully chosen so they have the best time together. We recently added a weekly walk for our iso-puppy anti-social mini Dachsie who has flourished! She's much calmer and less reactive on walks and is even learning to have fun with her fellow walkees. The LLP team are a group of caring, dedicated people with fantastic skills to make sure each experience is safe and positive. Thank you so much, LLP team!
My dogs Atticus and Leroy (whippets) have been walked by the Loose leads family for 2 years. I cannot thank Jasmine, Lauren and especially Kath for caring for my dogs in these 2 years. After their weekly walks, I noticed that my dogs recall was getting better and they were no longer pulling at the lead as much. This was because of the training Kath provided for them during their walkies. My dogs loved their group walks where they were taken to the local parks and even to the beach on hot days! They always came home happy and content. Kath always used to give them a good wipe down, check their food and water bowls and even take our mail inside the house. Unfortunately we moved to Brisbane in July and could no longer continue our walks with loose leads, but I highly recommend loose leads if you’re after a dog walker. You will not be disappointed! These guys love dogs and treat you like family. They’re the best!
Jasmine and her team at LooseLeads have been amazing in working with our rescue pup from a young age, helping her socialise with other people as well as dogs. It has definitely made a core difference to our nearly one year old 25+kg dog and our confidence in knowing how well she fits into the world around her! Also highly recommend the swappa bag of treats!
A small local business in the west! Brizzie absolutely adored every single thing that came in the pack that I ordered. After reading about the Ziwi products and watching how much Brissy enjoyed them I’ll definitely buy more. If Dogs could speak English they would say Thank you for taking the time to listen. These guys tick all the boxes. THANK YOU FROM US 🙋🏼♂️🐶
Lauren and the team at Loose Lead Pets are simply amazing! They are kind, gentle, and caring with our dog and take him to heaps of great walking spots to get some energy out while my wife and I are at work. After initially making contact with LLP, it was so easy for us to book in some ongoing dog walks, and the whole team are amazing on the communication front, which makes it easy for us when anything needs to change with our walks from week-to-week. Amazing service, could not recommend more!
Our cheeky beagle Darwin loved going to this puppy class and so did we. The trainers were extremely professional and had such great tips for helping with puppy training. Darwin is now 8 months old and in my opinion is the best trained beagle I’ve met! (according to us anyway 😉) …
Saw this bunch at the dog park, trainers have about 10 dogs, with zero control. They will let your dog bark at other dogs and just watch. If you want your dog to get bitten, take it to them. In response to the owner: My dog was heeling perfectly fine until one of your dogs charged towards us barking and lunging at the fence without any reason. Another dog joined not long after due to the commotion caused by all dogs involved. Given the sudden rush, my dog reacted and I tried my best to control the situation. During this, the “trainers” stood 20m away watching their dogs without saying a word or attempting to make the situation any better. In future, please ensure you are aware of your surroundings and recall your dogs as a common courtesy for the safety of everyone else in the neighbourhood. Particularly if the actions of the dogs you’re taking care of are causing distress to others. Dogs can make mistakes, but as their handlers, you should have (or attempt to) have more control of your dogs. And if you can’t, please use a lead. With 10 years experience we expect you’d understand the situation better than most.
LLP have been walking my dog Sammy for the past year and a half. They are fantastic with him. I recently injured myself and they were available at short notice to take him for a week of walks whilst I recovered. My dog loves them and I highly recommend them to any dog lovers!
We have been using loose lead pets walking services for almost 1 year. Our dog knows intuitively when it’s time to be picked up and is waiting in position for his walker to put on his harness. He loves his walks and the staff are Wonderful caring and loving individuals. HIGHLY HIGHLY recommend!!!
Our three girls absolutely LOVE their Aunties and Uncles at Loose Lead Pets! They are tuckered out after their fun weekly walks. Thanks LLP!
So glad we came across Fido Delights We got stuck without a groomer with two poodles who really need regular maintenance. They were so quick to respond and very professional. Our two cherubs look and smell amazing. Our big boy is normally quite anxious with grooming, Brooke took such good care of him and he was so relaxed. Thanks guys, we’ve found our new groom team and they come to us! 😁
Such a great service, that comes to your front door. So happy to have found Fido Delights. And my cavoodle looks so handsome, highly recommend!
I had my first professional grooming experience with Andy and it was fantastic. My 10 month old Golden retriever was crazy in the bath and the dryer as I hear, but he still did an immaculate job. Butters feels looks and smells fab !!! He almost looks bigger due to how fluffy Andy made him. Thank you!!!!
Exceptional Service on Short Notice! We are so thankful for accommodating us on short notice for our puppy's first grooming session. He did an outstanding job, and our puppy looks adorable and happy! We're truly impressed and grateful for their professionalism and expertise. Highly recommend them for anyone looking for top-notch grooming services. Thank you again! Here are the before and after photos of our fluffball. 😁
I can’t recommend Fido’s Delights high enough. I had both my boys done at the weekend and they both came back looking very handsome and super happy! Not to mention convenient and the groomers are lovely.
Happened across Brooke while she was grooming my neighbours pooch and approached her to book my new pup who had never seen a groomer. To my delight Brooke offered to makeover pup immediately. A very short time later pup came out happy, fluffy and looking spectacular. Brooke's love and attention made this unplanned experience a delight. Thoroughly recommend & i won't go anywhere else.
My Dachsoodle is a nervous Nelly. We’ve not had the best experience with grooming before as he gets so anxious. This service just out the front of our home is a game changer! He wasn’t shaking or whimpering and actually ate his treats when I got him back! It was quick, the groomer did exactly what I asked, and he smells delicious! Very happy with this service!! Thank you
Our Zara came out beautifully groomed…Kind staff. Exceptional work. They do such an amazing job and in a timely manner. I appreciate you.. thank you Andy, you are awesome. I highly recommend your brilliant services you provide.
Such great service! l was so impressed with the follow up and communication at each step and flex. The ease of parking, setting up which is just a power cord and off he went for the next hour or so with my two furryyys. rebooking again because..it.. was that easy. Thanks again!!
I was truly impressed by the end result of our Japanese Spitzes’ grooming. Andy was thorough and really had a way with the dogs. Thanks for doing such a fabulous job 🙏 Daisy and Ninja 😊 …
Called to make an enquiry, they couldn't help me I said thank you anyway and Luke rudely hung up on me without saying anything at all.
Rude on phone, decided I didn't need that.
Liz is wonderful! She has looked after my precious baby boy Ollie (ragdoll cat) when I have been away, giving him lots of cuddles and attention and sending me texts and photos to reassure me he is happy. She also goes the extra mile watering my plants, collecting mail and putting the bins out - fabulous service! I would highly recommend Liz and her team to anyone who needs loving pet caring.
Liz has been looking after our "girls" for over 10 years now. Liz loves animals and has pets of her own so she understands the special relationship owners have with their pets. The regular updates we get from Liz on how our girls are doing just confirms this. We know that our "girls" are safe and happy at home being well cared with Liz.
We've had Liz from Lonely Pets come to walk our elderly dog Poppy for over a year now, Liz is amazing, kind and patient with Poppy and Poppy loves her and looks forward to her visits. Great service and advice, and the service is run and staffed by people who really love pets, not just for money.
We have had carers from LPC (mainly Liz and Rudi) look after our cats for years. LPC are a professional outfit, but most importantly Liz and Rudi are kind, thoughtful and attentive to detail. They know our cats and take very good care. I love the photos they send us! I recommend them very highly.
The best care for our cat when we go away. Liz is so lovely and sends us updates and photos so we're reassured all is well.
Very happy with lonely pets club especially Liz!!! She is a treasure, extremely reliable and caring. We all love Liz especially our dog who waits at the door to see her!!!
Highly recommend Lonely Pets Club South Melbourne. Absolute care and love given to my fur babies. Reliable Trustworthy and above and beyond when spending time with my babies. My pets love them and so do I.
I was really unhappy was the lack of communication from the carer. I had to chase them a couple of times to even set up the initial meet and greet (which in hindsight should have been a warning sign). Then during the actual care period there were barely any updates, even after I requested that these be provided daily. The reason I chose this company is because they promise peace of mind, but this is something they actually failed to deliver. I forked out hundreds of dollars for a service that is poor quality and am dissatisfied with. I would not recommend this company.
I would not trust anyone but Liz with my little terrorists, they love her and I can tell that they are happy in the photos she sends❤️❤️
I can not thank you enough for looking after my fur babies. They mean the world to me. They warmed to you straight away with your caring and loving nature and are always so happy to see you. I trust you totally in my house and I can not recommend your services enough. 🐕🐱 …
My dog absolutely loves going for walks and has stayed over in the past. Would highly recommend to anyone after dog walking or minding while away. Just be warned your dog may not want to come home
Tina and her team of housesitters have been looking after our dogs and chickens while we're away for as long as we can remember! Always professional, responsive and helpful, they keep us updated regularly when we're away and we always come back to a spotless house! Highly recommend!
We have used Platinum Pets a few times now (from weekend trips to the most recent a three week holiday) and can’t recommend them highly enough - our two cocker spaniels and home were well looked after.
