Welcome to Playmates Pet Care! Playmates Pet Care was established by myself, Paris, in late 2022 to assist in supporting a high quality, healthy lifestyle for the pets (dogs, cats & rabbits) in Richmond & surrounding suburbs.
After a career of over 10 years working for various companies within the animal industry & training my own reactive/sensitive dog, I had an urge to do what I love most as an individual pet care freelancer, to specialise in pet care for reactive/anxious dogs & cats.
I offer Dog walking, Walk & train’s, Training/enrichment visits & In-home feeding/medicating/enrichment visits.
As a lifelong, avid animal lover, I have a genuine love and passion for providing attentive, authentic & reliable pet care. My natural affinity with animals is a true gift of mine- communicating with them has always been innate due to my wide knowledge & deep understanding of animal behaviour.
I form strong connections with all of the pets in my care and receive great satisfaction creating engaging & fun experiences for them (follow our instagram- playmates_petcare for cute pics).
With a focus on animal enrichment, stimulation and training, my aim is to consistently deliver expert holistic pet services.
Having a career as a veterinary nurse for a number of years & working in multiple catteries, pet stores, horse stables and dog daycares as a behaviour assessor- it’s assured that all pets in my care are in highly experienced & safe hands.
My focus is to always provide the highest quality care, to ensure your pet has a comfortable, safe and positive experience.
I have completed a recent certification in Dog Psychology, Behaviour & Training, which complements the hands on experience I have had over many years. I work with mainly anxious & reactive dogs - My methods have been successful with both my own dog & clients dogs. I am a force-free (positive reinforcement) dog trainer. I offer walk & train’s currently- view my services page below for more information.
Like us, our pets require a physical and mental workout every day to remain physically, emotionally and mentally healthy. They can also become bored/lonely, which can lead to destructive/unwanted behaviours if not provided with a healthy outlet - that’s where Playmates comes in!
Playmates Pet Care provides a fun, familiar & stimulating routine for your best friend whenever you’re unable too - I custom my services to suit your pet and their specific needs so they are always having a positive, exciting & engaging experience.
Your dog or cat isn’t suited to Boarding, Group walks, Daycares or Catteries? Playmates Pet Care can assist to maintain your pets care from the comfort of their own home!
If you’re interested in giving your pets a quality, meaningful life where they have consistent routine, stimulation & entertainment while you’re at work/on holiday with a familiar pet carer, I’d love to hear from you. Playmates services are extremely beneficial to pets mental & physical health and will be personalised to them.
I would love the chance to meet the individual needs of your pet when you aren’t around too, and give the same amount of love and care as I would my own - that’s my promise to you & your furkids!
