Top cities for doggy day care in Australia

For pet parents, one of the hardest things about going to work each day is wondering what your dog will get up to while you are gone. At Pawshake, we understand that dogs need activity and interaction during the day, so why not book your dog with one of our trusted sitters in Doreen VIC for a home day care service? You can drop your dog off at the sitter’s home on the way to work or organise with your local Doreen VIC Pawshake sitter to pick up and drop off your dog for you.

Pet day care is a great way to keep your dog mentally and physically active during the day so that you can come home to a happy, relaxed dog. Pawshake’s home day care service is great for young dogs who need constant supervision: puppy daycare allows your pup to maintain a consistent routine, which is important during the toilet training process. It’s also a great option for dogs who need extra care and attention, or those who are extra active.

Our sitters who offer home day care and puppy daycare services are more adaptable than your average big day care centre. Numbers are kept small and some Pawshake sitters will only take in one dog at a time. This means they can work around your timing and any special requirements your dog may have. So, let your four-legged best friend enjoy their day with a fun and loving Doreen VIC sitter who will shower them with love and dedicated attention. On top of that, you will also get photos and updates during the day so that you can follow your dog’s day care adventures!

Every day care booking also comes included with The Pawshake Guarantee, which includes veterinary coverage, customer service support 7 days a week and more.

Hi there! I’m a reliable, energetic animal lover dedicated to providing your furry friends with safe, structured exercise and attentive, high-quality care. To me, being a pet sitter isn't just a job—it’s a passion born from a lifetime of loving animals. I truly believe that a walk is more than just a quick bathroom break; it is a vital opportunity for mental stimulation, sensory exploration, and physical health. My approach always prioritizes your dog’s safety and emotional happiness above all else, ensuring they return home feeling tired, content, and well-loved.As a devoted pet care provider, I understand that every dog has a unique personality and specific needs. Whether your companion is a high-energy athlete requiring a brisk neighborhood power-walk or a "senior soul" who prefers a gentle, sniff-focused stroll, I adapt my pace to suit them perfectly. I am also highly attentive to leash manners and environmental triggers, maintaining a "safety-first" mindset at every street corner so you never have to worry.Beyond the physical activity, I aim to be your trusted partner in your pet’s overall well-being. I want to offer you the peace of mind that comes with knowing a responsible, compassionate professional is looking out for your furry family member. From ensuring fresh water is always available after our sessions to providing you with detailed updates and cute photo check-ins, I treat your pets with the same vigilance and affection I would my very own. I can’t wait to meet your best friend!

Hi, I’m Joseph, a recent graduate from the University of Melbourne. I’m currently available for about a month and would love to help with pet sitting if you need someone reliable and caring.

I have quite a bit of experience with dogs both in Australia and China. In Melbourne, I’ve looked after several dogs for friends, including the two I’m currently caring for — a Japanese Spitz and a Dachshund. Back in China, I raised a Maltese, so I’m very familiar with daily care, feeding, grooming, and understanding different dog personalities and needs.

Your dog can stay at my place. I live in a spacious house with a backyard, so there’s plenty of room for them to move around and relax. My friend and I both have experience with dogs, and there will always be someone around to keep them company, so they won’t feel lonely.

I always try to keep dogs on their usual routine to help them feel comfortable — regular feeding, daily walks, playtime, and lots of attention. We also have a car, so we can take them to parks for exercise. I take safety seriously, and if anything unusual happens, I’ll contact you and a vet straight away. I only accept vaccinated pets to make sure everything stays safe.

I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and will treat your dog like part of our family.

Looking for your pet's new best friend? 
Reliable, caring, and genuinely animal obsessed, I provide a safe and loving home away from home experience for your furry family members. I understand that pets are not just pets, they are companions, comfort, and family, and I treat every animal with the same patience, affection, and attention I would give my own.
I pride myself on being responsible, attentive to routines, and respectful of each pet’s unique personality, whether they are energetic and playful, shy and gentle, or somewhere in between. From long walks and playtime to cuddles, enrichment, and maintaining feeding or medication schedules, I aim to create a calm, happy, and low stress environment while you are away. I am also comfortable providing any medicine to your pet directly to the pet which is either oral medicine, mixed with food or any cream to be applied on the skin. I am very clear with the process of what to do in case of emergencies and I'm happy to discuss that with you during our first meeting! 
I value clear communication and will keep you updated with messages, photos, and reassurance, so you can relax knowing your pet is safe, loved, and cared for.
Because your peace of mind matters just as much as your pet’s happiness.

Hi all, my name is Montana and I live with my partner Connor and our gorgeous 1.5 year old Labrador Marshall. Connor and I have been together for 4 years, and recently purchased a cute little house with a big fenced in yard.  Connor loves cricket, and all things sport.  I love Pilates, great food and long walks with Marsh. We BOTH love animals, especially dogs 
Connor and I decided to start pet sitting because we absolutely adore animals and wanted to share our love and care with others. Our lab, Marshall, has brought so much joy to our lives that we couldn't resist the idea of helping other pets feel at home when their owners are away. And since Connor wouldn't let me get a second dog, we figured pet sitting was the next best thing! Now we get to enjoy the company of all kinds of pups, and Marshall loves having new pals to play with.
Here are a few rules we always follow when pet sitting:
1. Never leave the dogs alone together. (As much as our Marshall is as friendly as it gets, we never want to put either dog in an uncomfortable situation, that's why they are always supervised).
2. ALWAYS feed the dogs separately.
3. Keep a consistent routine for walks, playtime, and feeding.
4. Provide plenty of love, attention, and supervision at all times.

Feel free to reach out if you have any questions at all! We look forward to caring for your baby.

Hello! My name is Noah and my partner Hazel and I live in Preston, in the north of Melbourne. I am an experienced pet sitter, carer, fosterer and dog trainer with pet service/training qualifications and offer pet sitting, walking, and training sessions. I offer walk training if your dog has issues on leash with pulling, if needed.&nbsp;

I have owned dogs, cats and pocket pets since childhood and pets/animals have always been a special interest of mine. I have my Cert III in Companion Animal Services including dog and cat husbandry, dog training, grooming, basic healthcare/First Aid and medication administering and am confident working with anxious dogs or dogs with some more complex behavioural needs. I have a passion for dog training and am going on to further study my Cert IV in Animal Behaviour and Training next year to continue to expand my skills and clientele in dog training professionally. I am open to looking after dogs of all sizes and have experience working with Medium/Large-Giant breeds so no dog is too big or too small here, though size-wise with our house we can only accommodate 1 other large dog at a time.&nbsp;

I also have extensive experience with pocket pets like rats and guinea pigs.&nbsp;

We both work from home so have a lot of time to spend with your pup in the times when you may not be able to.

In my home I have a retired relaxed 6yo (fortunately cat friendly and near zero prey drive) greyhound male and a 2 year old old Standard size Aussiedoodle male. They are cat friendly, adore people and are friendly with all types of other dogs. They are all well socialised with other dogs and used to co-existing with them as we often take on foster dogs outside of pet-sitting time periods. They are both desexed and up to date with all vaccs etc&nbsp;

We also have a little old lady cat who is very dog adjusted and mostly keeps to herself, except in the morning sun she is usually found grooming one of the dogs which is very cute. She has her own hideaways if she needs a break. We require dogs to be cat safe if staying in our home, though Millie is very used to dogs and extremely dog tolerant if they are a bit boisterous she will just go hang out elsewhere.&nbsp;

I have my dogs indoors with me most of the time as we work from home so are most often here, and they sleep indoors. We have a small back patio, and a larger front grassed yard which is fully securely fenced. We also live a few houses down from a large park that is great to walk around, and are local to the Preston shops strip which is also a great walk.&nbsp;

Looking forward to meeting you and your pet!&nbsp;


To be honest, I used to be the kind of person who would jump on a sofa or run away whenever I saw a dog! That all changed when I met Glady, the first dog I shared a home with in a rented house. At first, I was scared, but without even realising it, I grew so close to Glady. He became my little companion, and when I had to move to another part of Melbourne, I missed him deeply. That’s when Arlo came into my life.I had originally planned to get a small toy poodle, but instead, I ended up with a gigantic cutie pie! Now I can’t imagine life without him. He taught me things only a pet parent can truly understand — patience, empathy, and the purest form of love.We include Arlo in almost everything we do, from weekend getaways to daily park visits. I’m experienced with handling large breeds, administering medication, basic grooming (like brushing, cleaning paws, and managing shedding), and following specific feeding routines. I also have experience with socialising dogs around others and ensuring they feel comfortable and safe in new environments.As a pet sitter, my goal is to care for every dog with the same affection and attention I give Arlo&nbsp; especially those who might be shy, anxious, or overlooked because of their size. I know how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone else, and I’ll make sure your furry friend feels loved, safe, and at home while you’re away.Please reach out for dog sitting,hosting ir walking

I adore my puppy. He means the world to me and my family. We love playing, walking and spoiling a pooch and can't what to share our love with your puppy!&nbsp;
We have a huge back yard which is secure with plenty of soft grass and toys.
We live in the leafy Eastern suburbs with access to lots of walking trails and parks.
We have lots of experience looking after puppies. We started pet sitting so our dog can have company because he loves playing with other puppies and we wanted to make him happy. It's an added bonus that get to have fun with extra puppies as well!
We prefer smaller puppies which have been well socialised with people and other dogs. This ensures a pleasant experience for all involved.
I work from home so your puppy won't be left alone all day  everyday. We believe that puppies are part of the family and shouldn't be left alone and isolated all day without human interaction.  This ensures they feel loved and valued.


Hello! We're Varun and Hannah, a dog-loving couple with two wonderful dogs of our own, Leo and Wolfie. We’ve both grown up with pets and have been caring for our own dogs for almost three years now. Our dogs are very happy, playful, and love each other’s company.
I currently work from home, so I’m available to look after dogs all day, every day. We have a lovely large backyard where dogs can play, run at full speed, and tire themselves out. For smaller or medium-sized dogs, we have a doggy door installed, and for larger dogs, I’m always here to open the door whenever needed. Our home is perched high up, and our dogs enjoy watching people and other dogs go by through our large windows.
We love all kinds of dogs and would be thrilled to care for yours. We’re confident that your dogs will feel right at home here and will enjoy their time with us as much as we’ll enjoy having them.


Hello! I'm Deivis, I am originally Venezuelan, I lived in Chile and I moved to Melbourne to study English.
&nbsp;I am a person who loves animals, I have had pets in my hometown of Maracaibo and in Santiago de Chile with my husband.
&nbsp;My experience in caring for and walking pets is due to the fact that I had wonderful pets in my entire life, such as Mindy, Danna, Joe and Zuki. There have been 2 small dogs, one of a medium breed and one large, all 4 of them have been energetic, that is, they played a lot in the park with other pets.
&nbsp;I like to go out to the park with them, because that way they, the pets, socialize, play and share with other animals, it helps us to share with other people in the same way.
&nbsp;As additional information, I would feel much safer if the pets that I will be able to take care of and walk, are vaccinated.&nbsp;
I can walk your dog and I can spend time with him.

Doggy Day Care, Doreen VIC
