Pet Minding
After 18 years of providing inhome pet care for kitty’s, bunnies, dogs, birds and other little friends, we have made the difficult decision to only care for those of you who live in Altona, Altona North, Newport and Williamstown and to discontinue this service to those outside of these suburbs. COVID-19 has affected many small businesses and like many others, we have made the decision to restructure and remodel the business.
We thank each and every person who allowed us into their homes and their families over the last 15 years and wish you all lots of luck.
Should you wish for a referral, please do not hesitate to contact us – [email protected]
We will still be providing our sleepover service (in your home or in ours), as well as our pick up and drop off (with a feed) service, to those needing day care / group walks, during the week.
We will also continue providing solo and group walks (during the week) as well as puppy pop in visits, during the week.
Again, we thank those of you who have supported us over the years and hope that we can help you one day in the future.
