Service Description

Available within 4km of Richmond My pet sitting In-home feeding & enrichment visits are the perfect alternative to catterys or dog daycares where there is often a lot of overwhelm/stress due to change in environment, overstimulation & not much down time for needed rest. Why Sensitive Soul Pet Care & Animal Naturopathy In-home pet sitting visits are ideal for your pet? Animals best source of security when guardians are away is their home environment & guardians scent. As well as due to natural instincts of territory- a place they feel most secure & content. At home, they have access to everything that is theirs available to them including: Own sunny/bird watching spots, usual unique routine, toys, blankets, calming diffusers, beds, cat trees, food/treats, litter trays with usual litter (cats are fussy if changed up suddenly), freedom of movement, own area for outdoor time & familiar carer who understands their specific species needs. They also have their guardians scent, as well as their own - another source of comfort. It’s also common that cats and dogs especially become unwell, stressed & have their usual routines disturbed when they are taken out of their normal environment - on top of their guardians leaving. Confining sensitive or senior pets in cages triggers stressed induced health conditions.
