Top cities for cat sitting in Australia

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 Ringwood VIC Pawshake cat feeder or carer can help. Our Ringwood 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 Ringwood 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!

Bright, friendly, reliable, honest, and a true home-body!
I offer home visits, dog walks and home-sits.
I’m an animal lover, I grew up with 3 dogs, but am not settled down enough to have my own yet. So I love being a pet aunt and have been pet sitting for around 5 years. I’m experienced with older and sick pets, and have done vet visits and medication, as well as young boisterous pups who need more walks and stimulation. I love a pet snuggle! But equally if yours is a little more independent or timid, I’ll respect the warming up process :)
To me, a home is a haven, so I’m super clean and tidy, and will treat your home with the utmost respect!
HOME VISITS AND DOG WALKING:
My availability is generally early morning and nights after work. I can feed your pet, walk dogs (half an hour to 45 mins usually), get the mail in, water plants and any other tasks that might be required. I am experienced in administering medication, with the exception of delivering injections.
I will generally stay an hour depending on what you require. I'll only accept drop in's for the suburb I'm in.
Dog walks are anywhere from 25-45 minutes depending on the needs or limitations of the dog. I'll always act as advised, so if you have a park you would normally take them to or if they like a particular circuit, that's where I'll go. I'm very cautious of off-lead areas until I'm very familiar with your dog, and they're familiar with me. 
HOME SITTING:
I prioritize longer pet sits, as it allows us to be in more of a routine, but am happy to consider shorter sits, especially with repeat clients (and I always love caring for pet friends again - nothing makes me happier than when your dog races to see me or cat comes over for head scratches when they recognise me!)
I'm unable to take live-in sits that are further than 30 mins from the city, and generally only service the eastern, north east and south east suburbs. Any further out and my travel gets too crazy.
I work from home part time in admin, and take casual retail and promo shifts, so while there may be days I'm away 8-9 hours, it's usual that it's only 4-5 hours at a time. I keep a routine of being able to walk dogs in the morning and at night. And feed on a morning/night schedule also. On long term sits, I'll make sure to wash dogs as required. I am experienced in administering medication, with the exception of delivering injections.
I'll of course keep the house immaculate, and water plants, collect mail and tend to all the household things that come up.
I don't invite friends around, if possible I'll park in the driveway for the visual cue that people are home, and I have a strong system for locking up as I leave. Your house security is of utmost importance!
I’m part of a network of Melbourne pet sitters, so if anything comes up that I’m unsure about, there is always support from others with experience. I’ll send you lots of pics while you’re away, as I know you’ll be missing your fur children, and send lots of updates!
Your home and pets are in safe hands; I look forward to meeting you and your pets soon!

Hello Everyone! My name is Alex and I love animals! I grew up with a dog named Harry and hemrit crabs hahah! Our family now has a pet named Teddy :) He is a Bichon Frise and gets along with both dogs and people. We want Teddy to have a play friend and also have more cutness in our home. Speaking of our home it is fenced and quite large both inside and outside. Teddy mostly is an inside dog but Teddy and guest pets can also do a walk around outside. We have experience in taking after pets from friends pets and other pets outside of Pawshake. My parents often take Teddy to the beach on Sundays and if you are open to it we can also take another doggy with Teddy and provide pictures. In terms of what I expect from pets
Dogs only: At this stage dogs only as Teddy despite showing no signs of agression has still not interacted with other animals besides dogs and don't see the point in taking the risk.
Size: Small dogs only at this stage.&nbsp;
Temperment: Friendly dogs only. We are fine with the dogs being slow, old and quiet or young and more energetic but the pet needs to be friendly. May request to meet up beforehand. More than happy to drive to an area to see how a potential new member of the family behaves.&nbsp;
Quantity: At this stage just one pet at a time. What you can expect from myself and the family: Teddy and a member of the family at home: If I am not at home Monday to Friday my mum will be. Very rarely there is just Teddy. On the Weekends there is always someone at home and I will make sure that any pet is very loved :)Lots of hugs and kisses :)
Walks: Mum usually does the walking and I usually do the running. Dependisng on the health, age and temperment of the pet we can do either.Food: We expect bed and food to be provided however we often cook Teddy fresh chicken. If this is something you want as well in addition to the food provided to us let us know.&nbsp;
Safe: As mentioned above we have a fenced house&nbsp;
Toys: We have dog toys but open to having new toys provided to us to make any pet feel more welcome.
Sleep: Pet will be sleeping in my bed or in a dog bed. Whatever the pet prefers.&nbsp;


Allow me to give your dog or cat the stretch, sniffs, and enrichment they need to enjoy their day and be their happiest self.
I’ve recently completed an RSPCA Pet First Aid course, so you can feel confident knowing your pet is in safe, capable hands.
Having grown up with both dogs and cats, animals have always been a huge part of my life. I now share my home with two beautiful greyhounds, whom I absolutely adore. I’ve also fostered greyhounds straight out of their racing careers, supporting them as they transitioned into calm, loving family pets. Through this experience, I’ve gained confidence working with reactive and sensitive dogs using patient, consistent training.
Your dog’s safety is always my priority. I practise proactive walking by creating space from other dogs when needed, because while I trust the dog in my care, I can’t always predict others. This helps ensure calm, positive outings every time.
Whether you’re unwell, away from home, managing a busy period, or simply need an extra helping hand, I’m here to support you and your pet. I also offer home visits for feeding, companionship, and check-ins to ensure your dog or cat feels safe, comfortable, and cared for in your absence.&nbsp;


Hello! My name is Rikka and I’m passionate about caring for pets of all shapes and sizes. I’ve always loved animals, and pet sitting allows me to combine that passion with helping pet parents ensure their beloved fur babies are safe, happy, and well cared for.
I have up to 2 years of experience caring for dogs， including walks, feeding schedules, playtime. I understand that each pet has their own personality, needs, and quirks, and I take the time to get to know them and provide personalized care.
I provide a safe, stress-free environment and will ensure your pet gets all the love, attention, and care they deserve while you’re away. I only welcome vaccinated pets into my home to keep everyone healthy and happy.
If you’re looking for someone who will treat your pet like their own, I’d love to chat and learn more about your furry friend’s needs!


Please read before making a booking request thank you &nbsp;

ABOUT US


We live in a comfortable home with spacious indoor &amp; outdoor areas. Our front &amp; back courtyards are secure &amp; fully fenced, giving your pets plenty of space to play safely. There’s also a deck where they can relax.


There is always people at home, so your pet will receive lots of love, attention, &amp; playtime throughout the day 🤍


After careful consideration, we decided to separate areas with pet fences for easier cleaning and any accidents. We usually leave the fences open unless cleaning is required. Cleanliness &amp; safety are our top priorities in our home. We vacuum twice or more a day &amp; mop every 2 days to maintain a clean, pet-friendly environment.


We walk the dogs 1–2 times a day, depending on the weather. There are several local parks, off-leash areas &amp; reserves just a couple of minutes from our house. We like to switch up our route &amp; visit different spots nearby to keep things fun &amp; interesting for the dogs. On rainy days, there’s plenty of space indoors for play &amp; activities.





We found how much we truly enjoy the joy that pets bring &amp; the trust their parents place in us. Seeing how happy &amp; excited the dogs are when they return to our home made us realise this is what we love.


Thank you &amp; we're excited to meet your pet and offer them a home away from home while you’re away ️

I want to be a dog walker because caring for dogs has always been a huge part of my life. I currently have Cleo my German Shepherd and Suki my Doxiepoo, so I'm experienced with both large, energetic dogs and smaller breeds with big personalities. Growing up, I had Labradors which founded my love for dogs. 
I walk my own dogs for at least an hour every day, rain or shine, because I believe it's essential for their physical and mental wellbeing. Living in Melbourne I am used to all conditions and am confident to walk dogs of all sizes and energy levels, I always prioritise their safety and enjoyment. 
I can run with young dogs and take a calm stroll with our grey angels. I will come with treats and doggy toiletries.
I am happy to walk your dogs, take them to the park, play fetch. Whatever you feel your dog needs, I will strive to provide.
Dog walking doesn't feel like work to me - it's something I genuinely enjoy and take pride in doing well. 

My partner and I are both dog lovers and we used to have a Dachshund and a Pekingese.
Our home is spacious and clean with fully fenced front and big backyard. Pets will stay indoor and can use either front or backyard for potty during the day. There is also a decking area if your pet want to relax outside.
My partner and I stay at home throughout the day, so we have plenty of time to play with your pets and give them adequate attention and care.
Pets are taken for walks 1-2 times a day. There are multiple parks nearby and a reserve and fully fenced off-leash park just a 2-minute walk away where they can run freely. Even on rainy days, there is enough space indoor for activities.
We will send photos and updates of your pets too to keep you reassured.
Only accept fully house-trained, have received their required vaccinations &amp; have been treated for intestinal worms &amp; fleas. No aggressive behaviour, excessive barking, no biting of people and things (except toys), and must be able to potty outside or on pee pads.


As a dedicated pet owner I know not all pets are one and the same with their unique personalities and needs. When I sit or walk your dog I will be doing everything with this in mind. In order to do this properly I will not take on any bookings without a meet and greet to get to know your fur friend to make sure we are both a good fit for each other. I highly recommend coming to these meetings with lots of question as well as a list of your own expectations so we are on the same page with how I can best meet you and your pets needs. I am able to give medication orally, I am not trained in any other application to be aware (so no needles!) I will need to know the details of any medications how often and if you have a fussy pet when taking them! During each visit or walk I will share a photo update and a general snapshot as to how we went which I find is a great way to put you at ease especially while away. Any other questions or needs of my service please do not hesitate to ask
