Sometimes life can get really busy and you might find yourself a little short on time to walk your dog. Luckily with Pawshake, it is really easy to connect with thousands of pet lovers and find a walker in Canberra ACT who is available and waiting to help you out.

All of our walkers are vetted individually and every dog walker booking is covered by The Pawshake Guarantee so you can rest easy while they spend time with your dog. Additionally, your Pawshake walker will be from your local Canberra ACT neighbourhood and their profile also includes reviews from other pet parents.

Having a dog walker visit during the day is an affordable and great way to break up the day and make your dog’s day more interesting. Some of our walkers walk multiple dogs at once so this service is a great way for your dog to socialise and meet other similar dogs. However, if your dog prefers to be walked alone, you can also find Canberra ACT dog walkers who only walk one dog at a time. That way, the walks can be completely dedicated to what your dogs want – whether is a slow walk-and-sniff or a faster paced brisk walk around the block, our Pawshake dog walkers will be happy to oblige.

Hi! I'm Sally, I live in Canberra with my partner and we adore spending time with pets as our apartment is too small for our own. I have always had dogs around me when I was growing up and genuinely love their kind, energetic and playful nature. I also grew up with cats 
Dog Walking Services: Being able to walk dogs is a great way to encourage myself to get outside and enjoy some exercise with the best company possible - dogs! I love being active so would be more than happy to not only walk but run your furry friend if they enjoy some faster pace. 
- available throughout the week and weekends (please contact me to discuss your ideal timing) 
- walks can last anywhere between 30 mins to 1 hour in either the surrounding neighbourhood including playing fetch at the local oval. (happy to discuss with you based on your pet's needs) 
- walks can be done within 15 minutes drive of my area or alternatively if you are comfortable I can drive your pup to the lake and we can go for a longer walk for the "bridge to bridge loop" 
House-Sitting: My partner and I have been housesitting for over 1.5 years now through Trusted House-sitters website and have thoroughly enjoyed the experience meeting new dogs, learning about their personalities and enjoying some great memories together. Each pup has their own personality and quirks which is so rewarding to discover. We have developed strong bonds with a lot of the families and dogs we've met over our time housesitting and have returned to on a secondary or even third housesits. We are happy to offer dog sitting services where we can come and stay at your home with your pets. We try to ensure our calendar is up to date but please reach out with some information regarding your location, responsibilities and home to discuss a potential match. 

Hi I'm Alex - an experienced pet sitter with a love of Canberra's green places.
I offer dog-walking sessions priced at $20 per hour, tailored to meet the unique needs and energy levels of each furry companion. I am generally available in the afternoon and evening on weekdays, and any time on the weekend. My usual route is around Lake Burley Griffin for an hour, but happy to work to your length and location needs.
For those seeking overnight care, I offer comprehensive pet-sitting services at $40 per night, fostering a safe and nurturing environment for your pets in the comfort of their own home. I have experience in caring for dogs and cats, guinea pigs, chickens and plants. I am happy to consider any days and length, and can accommodate stays of a month or more at negotiated rates. During overnight care I will spend time at your house and with your pets outside of standard work hours, and will follow your instructions to ensure your home is secure while you are away. When caring for your pets I can administer medications, and am happy to work with you to continue any training or behavioural work you are progressing. For homes outside central Canberra - I don't have my own car so I generally borrow the host's car. I can drive manual and automatic.
I commit to reliability, and good communication when caring for your animals. Your pet's happiness and security are my priorities, and I approach each engagement with dedication and enthusiasm. With a proven track record as a pet sitter in Canberra since 2018, I bring a wealth of experience to ensure the well-being of your beloved pets while you can't be with them yourself.

I am a massive animal lover and am always happy to be around them. I have a beautiful cat whom I adore to bits and will make sure your pet is treated the same!
I am diligent and caring. I will make sure your pet will get the love and care it deserves when you're unable to be there! 
I work in the north side of Canberra and am happy to service north side areas. I work full time but can visit your pet after work on weeknights and weekends. 
I can administer oral medication and do any brushing/light grooming as required. I'm happy to look after small to medium dogs, cats, rabbits and birds. 
You will always receive photos from me and texts if I am chosen to look after your beloved pet. As a pet owner myself, I know that receiving a photo of your loved one can make your day! ️

I am an animal lover and like playing with small animals very much.&nbsp;At present, I am studying master in ANU, and my learning time is relatively flexible.&nbsp;I have a cat at home in China, and I have not seen a super miss cat for half a year.&nbsp;When I was a child, I once raised a Chinese country dog. I am familiar with the process of cat care, patient, enthusiastic and experienced.Meanwhile，I have the experience with caring rabbits， I have a rabbit two years ago.I am very loving and have experience in taking care of pets. The reason why I want to be a pet sitter is that I really enjoy the time spent with cute animals.I will take care of your pet like I take care of my children.
I can help pets change water and food, accompany them to play happily, walk the dog and other services. If you want me to water some flowers as well , it's also ok. I can take care of 2 pets per day and I am sorry to say that I can't provide an area at home because there are other roommates. And I can't provide dog glooming and training.
Don't hesitate to contact me. I have time all day and all week.
I am happy to receive your message to communicate.

Hi, I would love to care for your dog &amp;/or cat in the comfort of their own home. Have lots of experience and success with fearful/ anxious/ hyper animals &amp; continue learning about the latest science of best practice in animal care, such as: cortisol (stress hormone) can remain present up to 72 hrs after event. This fact can help plan events around pet to reduce stress and avoid trigger stacking,e.g. when going away, don't take pet to vets the day before departure.Have love and respect of all animals having been raised on acreage with horses, sheep, ducks, dogs and cats. We would often welcome the strays to join the family. I've volunteered at the RSPCA, DAS, numerous animal rescues as well as rehabilating cats and dogs. They are now my focus and I have studied extensively to understand how best to bring out the best in them. *Hold a WWVP card*Servicing: Downer; Dickson; Hackett; Lyneham; O'Connor; Watson

Dogs: Walking around their neighbourhood, providing stimulating adventures that can include: nose work / enrichment/ training/ and urban agility which is fantastic in building confidence for the reserved &amp; fearful pups. If dogs need brushing, can do as there's a correct &amp; incorrect way to use a slicker brush.
Dog Walk - $40: 60mins
BEHAVIOURAL CONSULT
All suburbs.
My focus is to enrich the lives of the animals we share our homes with by understanding what their behaviours reveal.  Cats and dogs will 'act out' when under stress which can be due to a number of factors and can include simple things: where does pet sleep; how many fresh water bowls are available. They will often show behaviours that most people are unaware are signs of stress. This can include: hyper activity; inappropriate toileting; aggression; incessant barking; extinguished behaviours that return. Can also address fear phobias and concerning reactivity. My practical and theoretical knowledge has informed an holistic approach to helping you and your animal overcome the stress. Can recommend how to have a cat friendly purrfect home to satisfy cats needs and welfare.The consultation involves  2 hour  home visit listening to your concerns and assessing the dogs/ cat behaviour. We will create a practical action plan to work towards resolving the issue.  If required, ongoing contact to ensure success. $100 all inclusive
