"Iris is a lovely cat sitter, despite my two very nervous cats spending most of their time under the bed when strangers are around, Iris took the time to get down on the ground to take photos of them each day and attempted to tempt them out with some toys. I felt very reassured that they were both OK and returned home to two very relaxed cats. I would definitely recommend Iris for cat sitting"

"Gerardine is an incredibly kind, caring, and attentive pet sitter. She went above and beyond while looking after our cat and her communication of photos and updates helped to ease any anxieties we had about leaving our pet while we were away. She followed all the instructions we gave her carefully and spent quality time with our cat which he seemed to absolutely love. He also can be quite anxious but warmed to her very quickly, showing her skilled and good-natured approach to animals. I will be booking with her for any future trips without question!"

"Judy and Ty are fantastic when it comes to looking after your pet. My dog Ramsay looks forward to his afternoon walk with Ty and always comes back with a smile on his face. Communication is great, and the services they provide for your pet is high quality. Would highly recommend booking in with Judy and Ty for your pet sitting needs."

"This was my first time using Pawshake, a cat sitter & Elsie! Our cat dislikes other cats & was getting traumatised going to the cattery so we needed to try something different. Everything went very well. I received daily updates from Elsie with a picture. These were very reassuring that our cat was coping ok without us during our 10 day holiday. Plus she was enjoying her daily visit & cuddles from Elsie. Everything cat related was clean & tidy upon our return (litter tray etc). Highly recommend & we’d be happy to book Elsie again."

"It was a pleasure to have Stacy looking after our cats while we were away. She was always on time and got along well with our cats. It looked like she had taken care of everything we’ve asked for our cats. We’d be happy to book her again for our holidays and recommend her to others as well. "

"Jenny was amazing! She was all of the things you want in a good pet sitter. Communicative, friendly, respectful of the house and most of all amazing with my cat, Kit. I would have absolutely no doubt in hiring her again, and I know Kit would feel the same way. In fact he might be mad if I don't! "

"I recently entrusted Kerin with the care of my shy cat, and I couldn't be happier with the service she provided. Kerin's caring demeanor, attentiveness, and excellent communication skills immediately put me at ease. She went above and beyond to ensure my cat felt comfortable and loved while I was away. Kerin proved to be incredibly reliable, consistently sending me updates and photos, which kept me reassured and connected with my pet. It was evident that my cat not only received top-notch care but also formed a genuine bond with Kerin during her visits. I highly recommend Kerin for anyone seeking a trustworthy and compassionate cat sitter. Her dedication to providing excellent care and her genuine love for animals shine through in every interaction. Thank you, Kerin, for your outstanding service and for giving my cat the attention and affection he needed while I was away."

"Courtney is the absolute Rolls-Royce of pet sitters, without question. I’ve tried a few when Courtney hasn’t been available at short notice and the service, love, attention and and care provided is honestly night and day. Not to take away from other sitters at all, as they did everything they said they would which was my expectation, but Courtney has always gone far above and beyond and her comms and consistency are always 11/10 and so, so far above expectations. I won’t give spoilers or expectations but Courtney has other amazing talents that existing customers will know, and new may be so happy to discover. Courtney has truly bonded so well with my skittish cat over the years and built trust and it didn’t take years at all - after their first meeting (gratuitously provided by Courtney, again showing her genuine care for my little bears security and mutual comfort under her watch) I knew very well the bear was at ease and very comfortable in her care. I’ve been re-booking Courtney for about 3 years now and if Courtney’s unavailable I actually reconsider my plans where possible because she knows my bear inside out - which has all been Courtney’s doing and proactivity while I’ve been away on several occasions, which just instills my confidence and trust in her more and more each time. Courtney is extremely thorough, thoughtful, insightful, patient, caring, and always keeps you in the loop. Even when we’re only away for two days - Courtney has the ability to make us feel like we’re still at home, with our little bear, and when we come home he reacts like we were never gone. Is that because he’s a cat and doesn’t care? Possibly. Does he adore Courtney? Yes. "

"Chris has become our go-to cat sitter. She is a reliable and effective communicator and takes wonderful care of our two cats. They are both rescues and thus can be fragile while we are away. They warm to Chris very quickly and when we return it’s clear they have been well cared for. Chris is always careful to lock up the house and will water the garden or put out the bins if required. We are really pleased to have found her. Highly recommended. "

"Amy is simply the best. She manage to get to know my super duper shy cat Floof. She patiently trying every day until she manage to give treats to Floof. Amy also communicated daily and reassure that both our fur babies were taken care of during our long holiday. She is responsible and always keeps us up to date. If Miumiu my other cat can talk - she would definitely agree with that Amy care deeply on each individual cat. I will definitely use her in the future. I would highly recommend her as pet sitter. "

"Safia helped out with house visits for our house rabbit recently and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her. Her communication was great - she kindly fitted in an intro visit last minute, and sent photos of Pebs while we were away. She also showed a genuine care for animals, which made us feel really comfortable. Thanks again Safia! "

Why pet sitting ?

When you have to go away or work long hours, you may worry about leaving your pet home alone. Have you ever wondered “Is there a pet or dog sitter in Footscray VIC that can help?”.

Luckily, with Pawshake, you can easily find local and trusted pet and dog carers from Footscray VIC to provide drop in visits and other services. This means a pet sitter will come and visit your pet at a time you both agree on and provide lots of love and personal attention. This can include playtime in the backyard, a walk to the local park, or just some cuddle time. Our pet carers can also administer medication, give food, and refresh the water bowl.

In home pet sitting services are a great way to break up the day and enrich it for your pet. Pawshake pet sitters have extensive experience caring for a range of pets including dogs, cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, birds and more. If you have multiple pets, home visits are a great option to ensure that they all get a visit and lots of attention during the day.

Drop in visits are the least stressful option for your pet because your pet can stay in their favourite environment – their own home in Footscray VIC. Their surroundings will be familiar and our loving and passionate Pawshake sitter will spoil them each day. Our sitters will treat your home with respect and are flexible with timing, requests and durations. All this can be discussed before you make a home visit booking.

Pet boarding is a great option for when you are away for a few days and your pet needs overnight care. Unlike pet hotels, Pawshake pet boarding allows you to arrange a personalised daily routine for your pet, whether this be extra belly rubs, playtime or 24 hour supervision. Your pet will stay with the pet sitter in a cosy home environment, rather than a large, impersonal pet hotel.

So whether you need just one day, a week or even a month, you’ll be able to find an experienced pet or dog carer to accommodate you and your pet’s needs in Footscray VIC. The best part is that your Pawshake pet sitter is from your local neighbourhood, so they will be familiar with the area.

Our pet carers also have a range of experiences which include puppies, seniors, nervous pets and dog training. So if your pet has special requirements, you’ll be sure to find a pet sitter that is a good match for you.

Your pet’s safety and welfare is a big priority for us, which is why all of our Pawshake pet sitters undergo a strict vetting process by our trust and safety team. At Pawshake, we understand that you might feel a little uneasy allowing a pet sitter to enter your home or arranging pet boarding at their place. This is why Pawshake pet sitters also have reviews from other pet parents that are publicly available on their profile for you to read.

Each pet sitting home visit and pet boarding booking made through Pawshake is covered by the Pawshake Guarantee, which includes veterinary coverage, customer support 7 days a week and more. Rest easy knowing that your pets will be well looked after by one of our expert pet carers in Footscray VIC.
