Pet Visits

Thoughtful, personalised care in the comfort of your pet’s own home, whether they need a quick check-in, a proper walk and care session, or someone to keep them company throughout the day.

Pricing update

New pet visit rates from 1 January 2027 🐾

A little heads up for my current and future clients: the updated prices shown below will apply from 1 January 2027. I’m giving everyone plenty of notice so there are no surprises when the new year rolls around.

🐾

Express Paw Stop

Current price

$25

From 1 January 2027

A quick, practical check-in for pets who don’t need a walk but still need care, company and a little reassurance while you’re away.

  • Feeding & fresh water
  • Toilet break or litter care
  • Medication administration if required

Cats with automatic feeders, or dogs with secure outdoor access who can toilet in the backyard without needing a walk.

Why are my prices changing?

I’ve thought carefully about these changes and wanted to be transparent about why they’re happening.

Firstly, to better reflect the current pet care market. The cost of providing professional, reliable pet care has changed, and I want my pricing to remain in line with the current market for professional pet care services.

Secondly, to better reflect my experience and qualifications. Since starting Paws N Whiskers, I’ve continued to invest in my knowledge, education and skills so that your pets receive more than just basic care.

I’m a qualified Veterinary Nurse, hold a Certificate II in Animal Studies, am Fear Free Certified across cats, dogs, avian and equine species, and am Pet First Aid trained. I’m also currently studying a Certificate IV in Animal Behaviour and Training.

These changes help make sure my pricing reflects the level of experience, education, time and individualised care that goes into every booking.

Travel fees, visit recommendations, multi-visit discounts and additional dog information can be found in the guidelines.
