Hi
When you need someone to look after your dog, there is a difference between 'dog minding and 'pet sitting'.
It will help when contacting a business - to know what they offer and what you need.
And if you're in Melbourne this weekend Friday May 2 - May 4 - you can talk to Lonely Pets Club at the 2014 Dog Lovers Show at the Royal Exhibition Building. The Dog Lovers Show has also provided Oz Doggy with 5 free double pass tickets! - so the first 5 people to email reply to this email with name and contact phone number will win a FREE double pass which you can collect on the door. (Please - only reply if you can go this weekend in Melbourne - and be quick!) We'll announce when tickets have been given away on https://www.facebook.com/OzDoggy
Pet sitting is a growth service due to it's 'at home' nature. Here's why you might use a pet sitting service
- Sometimes called 'pet visiting' - your pet stays at your home.
- If you are holidaying, your pets are happier and experience less stress by staying in their own familiar environment.
- Your pets will be at less risk from contagious diseases (such as kennel cough and cat flu) and parasites, which can be picked up at kennels.
- You will save time not having to transport your pets to kennels.
- Most pet sitting services will take out your bins, bring in your mail and security check your home whilst they visit your pets.
- By providing your dog with regular exercise, you will have a healthier, happier (grateful!) pet.
