To Whom It May Concern

Chris, from Park Ridge Home Pet Care Services, cared for our two cats, Edward and Victoria whilst we were holidaying in Tasmania.

When we came home we were delighted to find that our cats were extremely content as if we had not even been away. We were very impressed with Chris's professional and caring approach to caring for our cats in our home as well as doing extra jobs such as collecting the mail and putting the bins out, which gave us peace of mind.
We would highly recommend Park Ridge Home Pet Care Services to anyone who is seeking a quality pet sitting service.

TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN

We have two adorable staffies and they are treated as part of the family well and truly. We were heading overseas for a short break and decided to give Park Ridge Home Pet Care Services a call to find out the services they offer. We didn't feel right always relying on friends and family to care for our pets whilst we were out enjoying ourselves. We are very particular about the care of our pets and do not like to place them in kennels or with strangers, so we were a little worried if we were doing the right thing. We fret about our "kids" greatly whilst we are away.



A week before we left, Chris came back to a follow up visit to re-meet the furry friends and we were pleasantly surprised, the dogs remembered him and were all over him, they thought he was great.

When we arrived home from our trip, we were very pleased to see the "kids" did not hold a grudge against us for leaving them and they looked very happy and healthy and excited to see us. There was a full professional report of the services tended to each day and nothing was missed, from feeding the dogs, providing them fresh water, throwing ball, playing with them, making their beds daily, putting out the bins and collecting them, and even bringing in the mail. When Chris came to drop off the keys, the "kids" ran right past us and straight to Chris, we didn't even get a look in….

We would not hesitate in recommending Chris' services to anybody who is looking for a Pet Sitter and would not consider using anyone else to care for our furry little friends whenever we go away for a week or two or even a weekend. It is very reassuring to know that they were being well looked after at home in their own yard.

Thanks Chris,

TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN

We have used Chris from Park Ridge Pet Care Services to look after our animals on a number of occasions after being referred to him by another pet care company earlier this year.

Chris was able to look after our dogs and bird with no trouble at all. Even when we gave him very little notice which was a huge relief.
Riley absolutely adores his "Uncle Chris" and after meeting his dogs Brodie and Arnie we can say he looks after ours with as much care as he looks after his own.
We would not hesitate to recommend Chris to anyone thinking of using his services.

TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN

Dear Chris

Just writing to say thank you for looking after our dogs for us again. We get quite fretful leaving the dogs for long periods of time as they enjoy human interaction so much. It is comforting to know that you are calling by each day to feed them and have a play when we are not there.

You may certainly use this letter as a reference for future customers, as we are quite happy with the service you offer. We have in the past, and will continue in the future to recommend your services!

Thanks again

Why Use a Professional Pet Sitter?

Advantages for your pet:

• Reduced stress because of remaining in a familiar, secure environment where all the sights, smells and sounds are familiar.
  
  
• Following a customary diet and exercise routine.
  Not being traumatised by travel to the boarding destination.
  
  
• Minimal exposure to illnesses of other animals.
  Most important, the pet receives love and personal attention while the owner is away.
  

Advantages for you:

• You won't be inconvenienced or upset by transporting your pet.
  
  
• You don't have to impose on a friend, neighbour or relative who may forget to care for your pet.
  
  
• Your home is made more secure by the crime-deterrent measures provided by most pet sitting services.
  
  
• While you are away, you can feel confident your pet is in capable, caring hands.
  
  
• You can use other special services, such as watering plants and bringing in mail.

Professional Pet Sitting Services

There's No Place Like Home

Professional pet sitting is an important segment of the pet industry, offering in-home care of pets while their owners are away.

In a recent survey 72% of Australian households own at least one pet.

Caring pet owners hire pet sitters to care for the family pets because of the extra security and attention pets receive with professional in-home pet care. Many pet owners love the facts that by using a professional pet sitter, their pets and their home are well taken care of.

This is an invaluable service for travellers, holidaymakers, homebound individuals and pet owners with scheduling problems.

While making pet care visits, pet sitters provide a measure of crime deterrence because they make the home appear inhabited by opening and closing curtains or blinds, turning on lights, collecting mail and newspapers, taking out rubbish bins etc. which helps the home retain an active, lived-in look.

Pet sitting is an excellent alternative that is more convenient for pet owners and more comfortable for pets.

The demand for these professionals is due to the fact that today's pet owners consider their "fur children" part of the family and are taking better care of them than ever before.

In today's world, with our busy schedules and long work hours, many pet owners have to leave their beloved pets home alone.

We started Park Ridge Home Pet Care Services with the mission to provide excellent care and love for your pets when you can't be there. Whether you need someone to walk and socialize your new puppy, or come by every day to visit and care for your cat while you're out of town, we'll be there.

It's very stressful for your pets when you have to leave town, and most animals (particularly cats), do not do well in new environments. Because of the stress, potential exposure to illness from other animals, change of diet and the desire to maintain normal routines, many people decide to use an in-home pet sitting service.

Your loved one can stay in his/her own comfortable environment and we will come to them. You can rest assured that we will care for your pets as you would, and hopefully relieve some of that guilt that most people feel when they have to leave their "kids"

Park Ridge Home Pet Care Services is fully insured, have exemplary references available and is a proud member of Australia and New Zealand Professional Pet Sitting Company, Pet-Sitters.biz, Pet Sitters International and RSPCA Queensland.

To Whom It May Concern:

Recently I went on a holiday for 3½ weeks and I could not put my cat (Puss) and 2 dogs (Cooper & Hudson) in a kennel because in the past they have fret and wouldn't eat and I would be forever worrying about them whilst on holiday instead of enjoying myself, so I looked around and found Chris from Park Ridge Home Pet Care Services.

From the first introduction prior to me leaving Chris was fantastic with my animals and they loved him, so I felt completely relaxed with leaving them in his care. Chris came to feed the cat and dogs twice daily and walk the dogs for an hour each day.

Upon my return "my boys" looked fantastic, very happy and healthy and excited to see me but they seemed a little disappointed it was "only me" I suspect they were waiting for Chris to visit, it was great to see that they had bonded so well with him and I knew instantly that they had a great time while I was away.

I would not hesitate in recommending Chris' services to anybody who is looking for a Pet Sitter. I will certainly be using his services again whenever I need to go away, and if my dogs had their way it would be tomorrow so they can hang out with Chris again. Just the peace of mind that they were being well looked after in their own yard and not in a kennel made my holiday even more enjoyable.

Thank you, so very much Chris.

Kind Regards
