Our team is highly trained in the care and handling of exotic pets

Whether you’re planning a holiday, a weekend getaway, or simply need someone to check in while you’re at work, our team is here to provide expert care for your exotic pets — including snakes, bearded dragons, tarantulas, geckos, chameleons, tortoises, frogs, and more.

We understand that exotic animals require specialised environments, species-specific routines, and gentle, confident handling. Our carers are trained and experienced in caring for reptiles, amphibians, and small exotic mammals, ensuring your pet receives the same level of attention and comfort you’d give yourself.

 

Personalised Care Plans for Every Pet

Before your booking begins, one of our experienced exotic pet sitters will arrange a time to meet you and your pet. During this visit, we’ll:


  • Discuss your pet’s feeding schedule, lighting/heating needs, and habitat setup

  • Learn about any health concerns, medication routines, or quirks

  • Offer guidance on the best care option:

    • In-home visits, where we come to your home for daily check-ins, feeding, misting, and habitat checks

    • Or pet boarding with an experienced carer in a safe, appropriate environment


We’ll tailor our service to suit your pet’s species, temperament, and routine – because no two exotic pets are the same.

 

Daily Updates & Peace of Mind

When you book with us, you’ll receive:

  • Daily photo and message updates

  • Temperature and humidity checks (if applicable)

  • Professional care for animals that need live feeding, UVB lighting, or sensitive handling

 

We treat your pets like our own – and we’re always available for a quick message or update while you’re away.
