About Emma

Hello! I'm Emma, I'm 33 and based in Glen Eira in Melbourne's south east. I am a huge cat lover and experienced pet sitter. I've had cats all my life, and am currently Mum to a 7 year old rascal named Paddington, who we adopted from a rescue. I ran my own cat sitting business in Melbourne from 2018 - 2020, which unfortunately collapsed during Covid. I am now thrilled to be returning to pet sitting again, and can't wait to look after your fur family while you are away. 

How can I help?

I work freelance so I am flexible to visit your cats at home for 1 or 2 visits per day, 7 days a week. I can do feeding, cleaning of the food bowl and area, emptying and replacing of litter, and in some cases administer medication where necessary. I can also put bins out, water plants, and undertake any other need-to-dos while you are on holiday.

I'll always dedicate 15-30 minutes per visit to feed and play with your cats – not to mention take a quick selfie with them so you know they're having fun!

I am experienced in caring for shy, timid and skittish cats, as well as those with big personalities that love to play. My own cat is an indoor cat, so I'm a pro at making sure your indoor-only furries are cared for and kept safe.

NEW: I can also offer dog walking in the Carnegie/Murrumbeena area. I recently did a stint of house sitting overseas and fell in love with walking the dogs I was looking after, so am now adding this to my services.

If you're looking for a friendly pet sitter who will send you plenty of updates, photos and selfies with your pet to reassure you that everything is going well while you're away, you've found the right person!

Our first time using PawShake and our experience with Emma was amazing and seemless! From our messages and first meeting we knew that our furbaby would be in safe and capable hands with Emma which gave us much comfort while we were away.

We really appreciated the photos and check ins twice daily and we are so thankful that Emma genuinely spent time playing and interacting with our cat as this was the longest he'd been home by himself. It appeared that they developed a lovely friendship! We'll definitely look to book Emma for any of our future catsitting needs! Thankyou Emma ❤️
