Melbourne Dog Minding & Pet Sitting
Your dog stays in the home of a local dog lover while you’re away — not a kennel, not a cage. We do the matching for you, so you don’t have to spend hours searching for the right sitter. A premium service that gets it right 99% of the time.
Premium Melbourne Dog Minding & Pet Sitting Service
Your dog stays in the home of a carefully screened local minder — one-on-one care in a real home environment, not a kennel. Because we personally interview every minder, we know them well and choose the one best suited to your dog. Your minder has our 24/7 support throughout the stay, and your dog will be the only guest dog in their home.

Give Your Pooch A Holiday Too In The Home Of One Of Our Melbourne Pet Sitting Dog Minders
As much as some of us would like to take our furry friends away on holiday with us, such a solution is just not always feasible (even if Monty would love a cruise around the Pacific Islands). Instead of worrying about booking your dog into a dog boarding kennel or leaving him or her with a carer who has no backup, take advantage of our premium pet sitting service operating throughout the Melbourne area.
“Don’t Fret Pet!” has been providing professional care for pooches for over 30 years. With our team of carefully-screened and fully-supported dog minders, who welcome dogs into their own home, we are in the best position to care for your best friend whilst you enjoy your holiday.
Spoilt pooches are our speciality! If your dog is accustomed to a certain standard of living in your home they are sure to find a very suitable substitute in the care of one of our dedicated dog minders.
We are very selective with who we accept as “Don’t Fret Pet!” dog minders so you can rest assured that you will be entrusting your baby into the loving arms of a real dog lover. To ensure you have complete peace of mind we always arrange a meeting between you and your dog’s minder leading up to your holiday. This is so your pooch can become accustomed to their minder and you can meet them for yourself. Also, your dog will be the only guest dog with the minder so you don’t need to worry about how many other dogs are being minded at the same time.
This way you will be able to truly enjoy your time away knowing your dog is in reliable hands!
Call us on 1300 30 70 21 to so we can arrange a wonderful holiday for your dog with a caring dog minder near you who has been interviewed by us. Or, if you want to book straight away, you can book online.
Our dog minding services are available in areas other than Melbourne, including Sydney, Brisbane, Adelaide, Canberra, Newcastle, Gold Coast and Sunshine Coast.
