"I highly recommend Jessica as a pet sitter. She's punctual, reliable, and great with animals. My weary-of-strangers cat went up to her for a pat straight away, sensing that she was safe and caring. Jessica also communicated every day while we were away, and sent me lovely photos of our two moggies eating, drinking and greedily receiving pats and scritches from her. Our kitties were very calm and happy when we came back as they'd been well cared for."

I can very happily and highly recommend Jia if you are looking for a reliable and caring friend to look after your pets 😇"

"Marion has been our regular cat sitter this year and has been amazing. From weekends away to trips overseas our cats have grown quite fond of her! Cats are so sensitive to change so it’s such a relief they can be cared for in their home and we can still travel. Highly recommend! Thanks Marion 🐈⬛🐈⬛"

"I couldn't be more pleased with the care James provided for my cat! From the moment we had our meet and greet, I knew he was the right fit. He was gentle, attentive, and clearly had a natural way with animals. Throughout the time he took care of my cat, the communication was excellent—he kept me updated regularly and answered any questions I had promptly. I felt completely at ease knowing my cat was in such good hands. I highly recommend James to anyone in need of a reliable and compassionate pet sitter!

"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!"

"Jacinta was absolutely wonderful. Jacinta was reliable, friendly and incredible with our cats. We were sent cute updates each day and it really put our mind at ease knowing our cats were cared for.
Our two cats are rescue cats and usually very timid and scared of strangers. They shy away and I honestly thought Jacinta would have to leave the food out for sprinkles because she would be too scared to eat in front of a new person. On the first day Jacinta sent me photos of sprinkles not hiding and on day 2 sprinkles was playing with her!!! I honestly could believe it, she has a real understanding for cats behaviours and we are so grateful to have Jacinta come and help us.
Can’t recommend enough 🙏"

"Meilin took excellent care of my cat! My cat is very skittish and slow to warm up to people, but within a few days Meilin had her sitting in her lap eating out of her hand. Communication was great, and everything went very smoothly. I would absolutely hire Meilin again."

"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! "

"Capucine & Declan are incredible pet sitters!
They go above and beyond. They took care of all 3 of our animals while overseas, 2 visits a day and dog walking: sent me photos every visit updating me on each of the animals. Cleaned the areas each animal uses and maintained the cleanliness of the entire house. We extended our holiday and kept them on without any worry or concern for our animals.
This couple is a dynamic duo, reliable, honest, kind & a true power pet sitting force. Will use this duo every time we go away or for extra walks when needed. You won’t regret using this duo!! "

"Ghawady was absolutely amazing, I can’t recommend her enough. This was my first time hiring a pet sitter and I was a bit nervous initially, but the second I met Ghawady I felt so comfortable and knew she was the right person to take care of my cats. She sent me the most beautiful photos and updates on my cats everyday, my cats absolutely adored her (even my standoffish cat loved cuddling with her), and honestly I just can’t recommend her enough ☺️"

She took the tram to my place every day and went above and beyond, taking Shiloh for walks and sent lots of great videos and photos. Shiloh had a lovely time and has never been so spoiled!

"Aanchal took good care of our 3 fur babies while we were away. She was able to properly administer oral medication to one of our feisty cat. She was also able to accommodate our timings as our sick cat requires medication every 12 hours. She sent many pictures and videos of our cats, and regularly update us on them. We highly recommend Aanchal! :)"

"Adrian looked after our cat for 6 weeks while we were on holiday abroad. He has a great knowledge of cats and dogs and even provided us with some very useful tips on cat feeding. He visited us twice before the actual booking dates to familiarise himself with the cat as well as with the surroundings. He updated us with our cat's photos and details of her health after every visit, which was a great relief while we were away for too long. Adrian always checked with us whether something more needs to be done and even offered to buy food for the cat when the supply was running low. We found him to be trustworthy, punctual, systematic and has great compassion towards animals. We will definitely be looking forward to booking Adrian the next time we are away from home! We strongly recommend him to anyone who is looking for a reliable and trustworthy house sitter or a caregiver for their pets. 5 stars!!! Thanks a lot, Adrian!! "

/dayFrequently asked questions about pet sitting
Your pet sitting questions answered
Is Pawshake like a pet hotel?
No: unlike a pet hotel, your furry friend will never stay in a cage, or even leave home if this doesn't suit you. Pet sitting can either be in a safe home environment, or in your own home. It's very personalised to suit you and your pet.
Who can be a pet sitter?
We have hundreds of applicants to join Pawshake every week, but we accept less than 25% of these. Anyone who joins our website must have practical pet care experience and a motivation to be able to provide excellent service. They must be also be verified by SMS, email and location.
What do I get when I book a pet sitter?
When you book a pet sitter through Pawshake, you are getting a personalised carer who can meet your needs. Is your pet a bit shy? Then book a sitter who can stay in your home or pop by to visit. Does your pet love company? Then arrange for your pet to have a fun staycation in a sitter's family home.
Can I find your pet sitters in Melbourne?
Absolutely. Our pet sitters are found in every Melbourne suburb and are ready and eager to help you and your pet. Just head to our website: you won't need to look far from home to find your pet's perfect match.
