Pet Sitting
Happy Tails provides professional pet sitting services through visits to your home where your pet is most comfortable. Whether it’s cats, dogs, rabbits, or any other type of pet, I take the time to understand their needs and create a tailored experience.
​
Having pets of my own, I understand the nerves and apprehension that can come with leaving them behind. Because of this, I aim to give every client's pets the same care and attention as I would want my own pets to receive.

Further Details
What does a home visit involve?
Visting your pet can mean providing them with all their needs while you're away on holiday or simply checking in on them while you're working long hours. Pet care includes feeding, refreshing water, and attending to any species specific tasks such as litter box cleaning. Whether your pet loves to play with toys or just enjoy some social company, their happiness will be my top priority when pet sitting. I can also set up enrichment activities, such as food puzzles, for the time between visits to keep them occupied. I have even hid treats around a home for kitties to seek out and enjoy!
How will I know how my pet is while I'm away?
I will send you regular updates of your pet while you're away, including lots of photos! We can communicate through your preferred method, whether it be text, email, or Facebok Messenger via the Happy Tails page.

What type of pets do you look after?
There is no limit to the pets I'll care for! I have experience with dogs, cats, rabbits, guinea-pigs, and birds, but am more than happy to learn more about the care for other pet species, such as reptiles.
What if my pet is on medication?
That's okay! I will continue to administer your pet's medication throughout the booking. This includes oral pills, topical creams, and even subcutaneous injections - such as insulin for diabetes. Any health and medication concerns will be discussed prior to the booking.
