Many cat owners will understand that cats can be fussy and prefer their own home environment rather than an unfamiliar place like a cattery or cat hotel. Although some cats can adapt to cat boarding if they have to, most cats become stressed when transported somewhere new.

This is where a friendly Blackburn VIC Pawshake cat feeder or carer can help. Our Blackburn VIC cat sitting expert can come and visit your cat while you are away on holiday or at work. A cat sitter can even stay overnight if required, which is far less stressful than sending your feline friend to a cattery for cat boarding. Whether you just need a sitter for a couple of hours or someone to visit each day for a week, our Blackburn VIC cat sitters can tailor their service to suit you and please even the fussiest kitty.

Although most cats are independent, having a cat carer visit has a lot of benefits. Your chosen Pawshake cat sitter can feed, freshen up the water bowl, tidy the litter tray, and spend quality time with your cat. And unlike a cattery or cat hotel, your cat can chill out in their own familiar space.

Finally, every booking with Pawshake is with a verified carer and includes the Pawshake Guarantee and veterinary coverage, so you have nothing to worry about when it comes to your feline companion!

I am passionate about animals, their well-being and quality of life. I have such high respect for them and they are truly a gift. I get just as much enjoyment and satisfaction with each animal I spend time with, in my care. I’ll care for your pet as if it was my own. While you are away from home, I will ensure that your companion animals are provided with all the essentials, love and care.
I am a professional with 19+ years of experience of dog walking, dog minding and pet sitting. Safety is of paramount importance whilst clients pets are in my care.
I aim to make a POSITIVE difference to the daily lives of the animals in my care. Providing companionship with love and care, enjoying walks, hugs or just hanging out like friends do. At the end of the day, I know I have done something purposeful. I bring passion, enthusiasm and meaning to my work with a smile!A free meet and greet with no obligations are always included. At this consultation, I will go through your specific needs and to see if I can meet your expectations. In doing so you'll know that your companion animal will be treated with the utmost respect and integrity that it deserves.Services provided are:
Dog walking: This service is ideal for dogs who are left alone during your absence when you are busy with other commitments or having a well deserved holiday. Either as one on one or in a small group of friendly dogs. You can choose from 30 min or 1 hr slots.

Our service is based on a 24 hrs cycle with a grace period of 2 hrs. We offer short or long term stays. Your dog will enjoy a holiday of their own with lots of love, attention, adventurous walks and will be treated as a family member.&nbsp;

When you choose me, you know your pet will be truly looked after in a caring and professional manner!!!


Well, my love for dogs has been there since the day I was born. I have always been surrounded by dogs my entire life. Now that I have moved here, I had to leave my baby back at home. If there is one thing I have learnt about myself, it is that I love to care for dogs and cats. This is why I'm here on this platform, to make new furry (as well as human!) friends and to have that special bond that I have always craved. I haven't had much experience as a pet sitter but with my personal experiences with caring for dogs, my own as well as those of others, I am confident enough to say that I am really good at it. Apart from that, I don't have any special requests, however, please give me a detailed description about your pets and their habits so I can care for them adequately. Knowing about any quirks will be an added bonus of course. 
I am available for overnights any day of the week. I leave for about 9 hours for work during the day and will spend the rest of the time with the pet. 

I love dogs and I love playing with dogs and taking care of them. Chocolate (Name of my dog) is not just a dog to me, he is part of my family and I love him as much as he loves me. I took him out for a walk twice per day and I know what's the best for a dog.
I believe that animals have come to mean so much in our lives and I believe all of them are angels of the world
I know how important your dog means to you, and I would love to have the chance to take care of them while you are busy instead of leaving them at home by themselves.
I offered dog walking and home visiting so far, however, I will consider daycare and dog sitting depends on the different type of dogs as I don't have a big backyard at my house. Also, I want to make sure all the dogs are happy and feel that they are special when they are with me. I will also take them to dog off-leash park if they need more exercises.
Feel free to discuss with me in order to have a special arrangement just for your dog, if you want to give the best thing to your dog, then we are on the same page.


I have been Housesitting with my partner in Melbourne fulltime since July, 2023. We have done housesits or different time durations, sometimes 1 month, sometimes 1 week or even 1 day, and different suburbs all across Melbourne. We mainly took care of dogs: puppys, younger energetic doggies, old quiet dogs, some more reactive, nervous or fearful dogs! Some of them required medicines or a certain way of training, with treats or toys, so we are used to dealing with different personalities of the furry ones! We have had many border collies, a kelpie, labradors and retrievers, but also smaller dogs like a King Chevalier, a Malteese, or a dachshund... But we also took care of two rabbits and many cats so far. As our experience shows, we are used to dealing with different environments and older animals as well as puppies, either in apartments or houses, since our love for animals makes us adapt to the different personalities they might present and to the various needs they require.



About Me:
I've always been a firm believer that pets are not just animals; they're beloved members of our families. Growing up with two boxers, one Dachshund and two affectionate Burmese cats, I've cherished the bond I've had with my furry children
My Motivation:
From my earliest memories, dogs and cats have been a constant presence in my life. Whether it's taking my dogs on daily walks, organising weekend adventures to the dams, or simply cuddling up on the couch, these moments of pure happiness have always put a smile on my face.The joy I've experienced by providing love and care for my pets has inspired me to extend that same love to your furry friends
My Previous Experience:
My journey into the world of pet care began with my involvement in "Boxer Rescue South Africa," a dog rescue organisation close to my heart. I dedicated my time and energy to help match loving families with boxers in need of forever homes As part of this mission, I assisted with meet-and-greet sessions, connecting prospective owners with surrendered boxers. In some instances, my family and I opened our home to foster these wonderful dogs, ensuring they received the love and care they deserved until they found their forever families.
Additionally, I provided companionship and support to senior dogs, stepping in to keep them company when their owners were away. These experiences deepened my understanding of the unique needs and personalities of different pets
When you choose me as your pet sitter, you're not just getting someone who loves animals; you're getting a dedicated caregiver with a wealth of experience and a genuine passion for making your pets' lives as happy and comfortable as possible. Your pets deserve the best, and I'm here to provide just that🦮‍🦺

My name is Richard. I am married with two older daughters. Our family loves animals. We currently have two dogs, Rosie and Jessie. Two cats, Smokey and Patch. One rabbit, Buttons. We have had chickens, lizards and rats before.Whenever we went away as a family, it was so important to us to find someone we could trust to look after our pets who are a part of our family.Whilst I do not have experience looking after other people's animals, I have direct experience looking after my own animals for close to 40 years and I know that every animal is different and have their own quirks. We currently have a rescue dog (Jessie) and she is extremely anxious and nervous around people she does not know, so I have to support her differently.&nbsp;I am available to visit your house and can be flexible to work with you around keeping feeding and walking routines consistent. I will work with you to plan this out during the initial free intro meeting and if for any reason I can't support work your requirements, I will let you know up front.&nbsp; I realise it is very important that your furry friends feel like their lives and habits are the same.If you need an in-house sitter, I can definitely work with you to look at what your requirements are and put a plan in place, so you feel comfortable.Unfortunately, I do not offer the ability to house your furry family at my place, as Jessie finds it difficult with other animals.&nbsp;I now have more time on my hands and want to give that trust back, so you can go away and feel relaxed that your family of pets are being looked after and you are not stressed about their welfare or whether they are anxious.I will look after your furry friends, like I look after my own. You can relax knowing they are being loved and care for. And importantly you can enjoy that holiday or other important event.

I am a dedicated and reliable pet lover with extensive experience, specializing in providing top-notch care as a dog walker. Currently, I share my home with a 12-year-old cat and three dogs. Working from home allows me the flexibility to arrange visits to your home, ensuring that your dog receives proper feeding and walks. Notably, I can efficiently walk three large dogs simultaneously. Your furry friends are indeed in safe hands! My commitment to pets, combined with my reliability and flexible schedule, makes me the ideal choice for your beloved companions' well-being. You can trust that I will go above and beyond to ensure the happiness and health of your pets, providing them with the care and attention they deserve. With a genuine passion for animals, I strive to create a nurturing and joyful environment for every pet I care for.
Look forward to the chance to meet your lovely fur family!

Hello my name is Olivia,
I absolutely adore animals from the bottom of my heart. I have had Guinea pigs in the past, both dog and cat sat- including administering medication, dog walked and volunteered at the RSPCA. My motivation for getting on this app was that I have now settled into my full time work and would love to keep my passion going on the side. 
I have a dog instagram page for my own two dogs and I have attended the dog lovers show, dog birthdays and dog promotional events. Both my dogs are lowchens and are a small breed. They are also great with new puppies if you needed help socialising them too.
I am offering dog walking for social dogs in the evening or on weekends. I can administer oral medication to dogs. I am available to stay at your hose with your dog also. 
I hope you kindly give me the opportunity of meeting your special pets if I sound right for you. Please don't hesitate to ask me any questions you have. I look forward to hopefully hearing from some of you soon! 

My wife and I have a 12-year-old long-haired domestic cat, and we have a deep love for pets. We frequently help our friends take care of their cats and dogs. We are friendly, trustworthy and understand how pets are a part of the family and need lots of love. This is why we find Pawshake so great, as your pets can stay in their own environment where they feel safe and happy. We're more than happy to assist those who, due to work, travel, or other reasons, find it inconvenient to care for their furry family members at home.
Both my wife and I work from home several days a week, giving us plenty of time to spend with pets, play with them, and share moments together. Additionally, we thoroughly enjoy spending a lot of time engaged in outdoor activities, so having your pet with us is not a burden at all.
We guarantee wholehearted care for every pet, treating them as our own family members, providing companionship, and ensuring their time here is filled with memories and joy. I can visit your pets once a day to suit their needs. I will spend time with, play with and walk animals as needed so they don’t feel lonely while you are away. I hope I can help you out when you need someone to look after your animals.
