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 Melbourne 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 Melbourne 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 Melbourne 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.

¡Your Pet’s New Best Friend in Melbourne!


Hi! My name is Ana and I absolutely love animals. Back in my home country, my family and I rescued and cared for eight cats and two dogs. They are truly part of our family. Since I was eight years old, I have always been surrounded by pets, and I often took responsibility for feeding them, cleaning, walking them, and giving them the love and attention they needed when my mom or sister were busy or away.

My motivation to be a pet sitter comes from the happiness and comfort animals bring into my life. I genuinely enjoy spending time with pets, understanding their personalities, and making sure they feel safe and cared for. I also have experience looking after friends’ pets, including feeding routines, playtime, and walks.

I am responsible, patient, and attentive. I only accept vaccinated pets to ensure everyone’s safety. I would be happy to care for your furry family member as if they were my own.

Hi! I'm a medical student based in Melbourne with a lifelong love of animals and a genuine passion for providing attentive, compassionate care.
For nearly 13 years, I cared for my own large-breed dog, who was a beloved member of our family. Through every stage of his life, I gained hands-on experience with daily walks, feeding, enrichment, grooming, medication administration, and caring for an aging dog with changing needs. I also have over 5 years of experience volunteering with Cat Therapy and Rescue, where I've cared for cats of all ages and personalities, including shy, senior, and medical-needs cats. My responsibilities have included feeding, cleaning, socialization, administering medication, and supporting adoptions.
I recently lost my dog, and while I'm not ready to welcome another pet into my family just yet, I truly miss being around animals. Pet sitting allows me to spend time doing something I love while helping owners feel confident that their pets are in safe and caring hands.
I offer dog walking, drop-in visits, and pet sitting for both dogs and cats. During visits, I can provide feeding, fresh water, playtime, companionship, walks, litter box cleaning, basic grooming, medication administration, and plenty of affection and attention. I always tailor my care to your pet's normal routine and individual needs.
As a medical student, my schedule can vary, but I am organised, reliable, and will always communicate clearly about my availability. I am particularly comfortable caring for dogs and cats, including senior pets and those requiring extra patience and attention. My goal is to make your pet feel comfortable, happy, and loved while you're away, treating them with the same care and respect I would give my own.


Bonjour! 
We are Capucine and Declan, an international couple of 29 and 32 years old (French and English). We recently got back from an amazing 4-month road trip around Australia and we are now excited to reconnect with our passion for animals.&nbsp;
We've done many dog and cat sittings for friends and on another app, where we've received great reviews for our care and attention.
We understand that every pet is different and want to help you out when you're away, whether at work or traveling. We'll come to your place so your pet doesn't have to adjust to a new environment. We can stay with your pet during the day or overnight, take your dog for walks, play with them, and give them lots of cuddles. 
We're happy to do regular walks, please get in touch 🦮We are fully committed to our roles as pet-sitters, so we are immediately available to offer you our services and we have a car so we are willing to travel to different suburbs in Melbourne. 
We genuinely love animals and get so much joy from spending time with them. Our goal is to make sure your pet feels comfortable, happy and loved while you're away. We can't wait to meet you and your furry friends!
Get in touch if you want to know more about us :)

Hello, I'm Mi-Chieh (Jaye)! I'm a dog lover with 5 years of experience caring for my own dog. Her name is Outeng (which means “brown sugar” in Taiwanese), and she is a black Taiwan Dog mix. When I visit my sister, I also help look after her dog, Xiaomi, who is very energetic and loves long walks. Although my furry friends currently live at my other residence, I miss the companionship of dogs and would love to treat your pets as my own.
I previously provided dog walking services around the Carlton Gardens, so I know plenty of great paths for fun walks, sniffing, and exercise.
I’m able to offer flexible scheduling, ensuring your pet has warm company and attentive care. I’m also happy to send photo updates so you can stay connected with your pet during the day. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members!
