The Wedding Sitter

Karryn was so incredible in bringing our boys to the big day! It meant the world to us to have our dogs present and she made that all possible. Karryn helped our dogs be a part of the day and looked after them with so much care and professionalism. It was so reassuring knowing our boys were in great hands! Thank you so much Karryn, you helped make our day one of the best!

The Wedding Sitter was the first vendor I chose for our wedding, almost two years prior and six months before even getting engaged! We never for a second questioned having our dogs involved in our wedding, however having a highly-reactive rescue dog did make it much harder to get it done. When we first enquired, we explained our situation with our rescue dog Gus and Karryn assured us that being vet nurses, they were experienced with dog behaviour and knew it wasn't always rainbows and butterflies, and that they would assess his behaviour throughout the day as necessary. We had a meet and greet with Elly and Laura a few weeks before the wedding and talked through every little detail they might need to know for the day, and thankfully, both our dogs seemed to be very comfortable with them both. Phew! We still weren't sure how Gus was going to react to the unfamiliar environment on the day, but both dogs were on their best behaviour and greeted all of our guests with smiles on their faces! Seeing the dogs and knowing it was all going well was the best part of our day. Elly and Laura were amazing before the day, on the day and afterward, and were so patient with our other dog Lily who had been quite sick that week and needed various medications. We loved hearing all of our guests gush about how good the dogs had been and we can't stop watching the videos the girls took of them greeting everyone. THANK YOU Elly, Laura and Karryn for your tremendous help in involving our babies in our wedding day. It was just so special and to anyone unsure if their reactive dog can still be part of their day, definitely get in touch with The Wedding Sitter!!!

The team at the wedding sitter are nothing short of amazing, the commitment to your day and ensuring your fur babies are safe and advocated for is unmatched.They looked after my two big Goldie’s and kept them calm and happy during the whole day and were there to help us when we needed it. The communication from Karryn is such a pleasure and she made the whole process so easy, we knew our boys were in safe hands. Cannot fault their service, thank you again

If I could give more than 5 stars I would - best decision I made for my wedding was hiring The Wedding Sitter. They took care of everything, walked my dogs, had them at the front entrance greeting guests, dressed them, walked them down the aisle, looked after them for photos and then took them back to our accomodation and sat with them till we got back. The biggest stress for me Leading up to the wedding was who was going to take care of my dogs - I didn’t fret at all on the day because I knew they were in great hands.

We were so happy with our choice to book The Wedding Sitter for our wedding. Organisation with Karryn was easy and stress-free. We were able to meet our sitter beforehand which made the choice even easier. We had Hannah as our dog Max's sitter, and she did such an amazing job. It was a 35 degree day, and Hannah made sure Max was healthy and happy, and for a very reactive and boisterous dog, Hannah had him calm and well behaved the entire time.

Karryn was an absolute delight to work with, from the first interaction via email and phone to meeting in person. She took the time to get to know our dog and observe his personality prior to the wedding day.We could not imagine our wedding without our furbaby by our side, and she made the whole process seamless and looked after him throughout the ceremony! The cute outfits that she hooked him up with were a lovely addition to our day.Definitely would recommend using the Wedding Sitter for your wedding!

To Karryn, Sophie, Amelia - Thank you all so much for your one-of-a-kind support on our wedding day. You are fantastic to work with and Zay just ADORED his new friends. Of course the treats helped tremendously. I love that you're all natural animal lovers who understand dogs and are vets and nurses.Although he was definitely confused with loads of tall people around him, Sophie kept him calm, spoke to him, dangled treats to make sure he was looking in the right direction. From seeing how they were with him, I had complete trust in the team.I know he felt completely safe and comfortable. Because He doesn’t fall asleep easily and crawl up on others. But he certainly did on this day.To anyone looking to bring The Wedding Sitter Team on board for your special day - there is no doubt in my mind they're worth the money. If you want quality care and love for your pets while you're focused on your big day, then look no further.

Using The Wedding Sitter was one of the best choices we made for our wedding. We absolutely wanted our dog there and Hannah escorting our dog made it so fuss free and easy. River was a bit nervous at times but overall seemed to be very calm and she was the star of the show as our ring bearer and wearing a little flower collar. 100% recommend, it really removes any difficulties with involving your pet in the festivities.

Hannah and Sinead from The Wedding Sitter were able to win over our two crazy Australian cattle dog mix boys almost immediately. We were so afraid that they wouldn't be able to be a part of our wedding ceremony, but Hannah and Sinead made sure they were calm enough to fulfil their role as our ring bearers! A very special moment. They even scooted them off home and made sure they were comfortable after 'their' big day. We can't recommend The Wedding Sitter enough. Thank you!
