Passionate About Pets - Dog Walking and Pet Sitting Service

Passionate About Pets - Dog Walking and Pet Sitting Service Local Pet sitting [drop-in visits} and dog walking service available for Mt Cotton and surrounding suburbs. Police checked and insured. Life is definitely busy!

My name is Colette and I have always had a passion for all animals. Currently I own three beautiful Golden Retrievers - Pippa, Reggie and Jake, a Tonkinese cat called Kaz, some fish and a Pineapple Conure called Louie. We have now also welcomed a Blue-fronted Amazon Parrot! Lots to learn with these birds! We have also previously had a guinea pig but sadly it has passed away. I am also a Mum to 3

kids who also love animals like I do, especially my youngest! My Pet Sitting and Dog Walking service is available for services in Mt Cotton and surrounding suburbs. I aim to provide loving care to all of my client’s pets. I believe pets are most at ease and happiest when they are in the comfort of their own home environment. They are generally more relaxed with the familiar smells and surroundings. In-home visits can ease your pet’s stress while you are away. Dogs and cats in kennels are often left alone for an extended period of time. A dog may encounter altercations with other dogs and can also be exposed to some health issues. With Passionate About Pets Pet Service, you can be assured your pet will get lots of love and attention they deserve with lots of cuddles and playtime! We understand your pets are an important part of the family and they will be treated like one of our own! Walks can also be included in the visits to give them the enrichment they need so they are still getting out and about exploring! Other services included in the visits are lights on/off, bins in/out, any medications required, litters changed, watering plants etc. All home visits are tailored to meet you and your pets individual needs. I send lots of photos and videos daily so you have 100% peace of mind knowing your pet is safe and well cared for! I also offer dog walking on a weekly basis if you are too busy working long hours, injured or it is just too hard with the kids. Regular walks can be worked out or one off occasions are also catered for.

Just to keep you all in the loop of my crazy life, I now have to take care of my boy Reggie as well 😢 Hoping for some good results but lots of love and cuddles in the meantime! 💙

As for Pippa, well she is going really well. We are unsure what her future is until we discuss the very detailed results with her cardiologist. Keeping positive as much as possible…..for both of my babies! 🙏🤞❤️

Phoebe-Rose 💕💕💕

She was the most recent of my clients dogs to go over the rainbow bridge 🌈🥺

I spent several years being trusted to love and care for this gorgeous girl and take her for a walk with every visit which she absolutely loved! 🐾🐾 She would always demand we go for that walk straight away!!!! Always bossing me around haha. The most fun loving, quirky and cheeky personality who is deeply missed 😢

Loved and thoroughly spoilt by her amazing Mum 🥰

I have Pippa home for now and giving her all the love and cuddles we can 💕 Hopefully she stays comfortable for the next few days and the fluid does not build up too quickly. We will get some results back in the next 2-3 days. Neo and Nala are there to help as well. Reggie does not look as sad either.

My beautiful baby girl Pippa is in ICU tonight at the specialist vets after undergoing a procedure with the Cardiologist. She became suddenly very unwell and was struggling to breathe over the weekend, and unfortunately, her condition is very critical. 💔

There is fluid on her lungs and also around her heart, which has contained blood. The fluid around her lungs is called Chylothorax, which is very rare. Tonight they managed to drain 1 ltr to hopefully make her more comfortable.

I am really struggling to come to terms with all of this. This is the absolute last thing I needed to be dealing with while I’m still trying to cope with losing my Dad. Sometimes life can just be incredibly cruel. 💔 The hardest part is how suddenly this has happened and totally unexpected 🥺

Please hug your own furbabies a little tighter tonight and keep my beautiful Pippa baby girl in your thoughts. She is far too young. She will only be 9 the day before my birthday, on 16 September. 🐾❤️😢

So once again, I ask for your understanding and patience if I need to make some changes to walks or bookings over the next few days.

Thank you so much ❤️🙏

Golden Retrievers remind us daily that kindness is alive and well. Their gentle nature and unwavering loyalty prove that goodness isn’t just an idea — it’s something you can feel in every wag of their tail. They show us love without judgment, joy without condition, and hope without end. With them, the world feels softer and brighter.

Another reason why a walk, no matter how fast or slow, is so important for them 🐾🐾🐾

Is your senior dog sleeping more, wandering the house at night, forgetting routines, or seeming a little “off” their game?
Many pet parents assume these changes are simply part of aging, but they could be early signs of Canine Cognitive Dysfunction (CCD). This condition closely resembles Alzheimer’s disease in people.
Research shows brain health isn’t fixed. Fresh food, regular exercise, environmental enrichment, omega-3 fats, antioxidants, targeted supplements, and early intervention all help support cognitive function and improve quality of life.
In my newest article, I explain:
🐾The earliest warning signs of CCD
🐾What happens inside the aging brain
🐾Nutrients shown to support memory and learning
🐾Why daily activity protects the brain
🐾Practical ways to help your dog stay mentally sharp for years to come
Growing older is inevitable, but growing older well is something we can influence. Check out my latest article, link in comments. 🐾
