"Joanna did an amazing job looking after our anxious little old dog for 5 weeks while we were overseas. This is the longest time we have ever left our dog with anyone. Joanna cared for her so well and kept us updated on how she was going. Highly recommend Joanna if you need a conscientious and kind dog sitter!"

" I couldn’t be happier with the care my dog received. From the very start, I felt completely at ease knowing my dog was in such kind, capable hands. They were attentive, reliable, and clearly have a genuine love for animals. I got regular updates and could tell my dog was happy, comfortable, and well cared for the whole time. I would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for someone trustworthy to look after their dog, and I wouldn’t hesitate to book again. "

"Tanya is great! Our 12 year old Labrador was well looked after ( and a little bit spoilt!) during his 5 week stay. Tanya has a natural affinity with dogs and has a very capable and caring manner. Her communication when arranging the booking and regular updates during his stay were great. I would have no hesitation in having Tanya look after our dog again. "

"I highly recommend Jude as a pet sitter for your dogs. We have left our two dogs with Jude a few times, and they always have a great time. Jude sends us regular photos and updates, providing us peace of mind while we are away. Our younger dog doesn't have many opportunities to socialise with other dogs, so he benefits greatly from playing with other dogs while he's there."

"Michael was a great relief and we trust him with our dog. We had him stay for daycare once, then for four nights when we had to go overseas. Our dog is often anxious and doesn't like being away from us, nor does he get on with other dogs when around us, but when we got him back he looked like he missed Michael as well. He played very well with other dogs and had a great time. Michael communicated at least once daily about our dog, including multiple photos of him at his home and when walking, which was very reassuring. He answered questions promptly and updated us on how our dog was behaving including with other dogs. Would happily use his services again."

"Petah was extremely friendly and thoughtful. She demonstrated her knowledge and experience in pet sitting and I felt completely at ease leaving my dog with her. I could tell from the lovely photos and messages I was sent my pup thoroughly enjoyed her stay and was quite sadly to leave her new friends. I would happily recommend Petah and her family to any one looking for a pet sitter."

"Makarena and Nico were great dog sitters. You could tell that they are very experienced in the care and training of dogs, and they also love the company of dogs. They both work from home so Holly had lots of attention and lots of walks. Holly seemed very content when we picked her up and she was well behaved. We would highly recommend Makarena and Nico."

"Susann and her family were great with our dog. We contacted Susann at short notice to ask about pet sitting. She promptly arranged for our dog to have a meet and greet with the other dogs who were staying with her and our dog seemed very happy. We arranged a 2 night pet sit. Susann sent through morning and evening photos of fabulous walking adventures in nearby bushland, as well as updates of how our dog was doing. It was clear he was having a great time. We highly recommend Susann as a pet sitter and look forward to having her mind our dog again next time we go away."

"Kelly was the most caring, considerate and kind pet sitter I’ve met. Our Reggie girl unexpectedly had to have surgery the day before going to Kelly’s place and while I gave Kelly the option to cancel our booking due to the change in circumstances she was still very willing to take care of our fury family member. She administered medication multiple times through the day and kept me updated on the state of Reggie’s wound. We received daily updates and photos regarding her general wellness and I knew that Reggie was getting the most love and care she had probably had in her whole life!! I was worried that she wouldn’t enjoy being home 😂 I would highly recommend Kelly as a pet sitter. She is a beautiful and warm human being and we will be using her again 🤍"

"We had the best experience with Ayomi! This was our dogs’ very first time being looked after by a sitter, and she made it so easy and comfortable for us. She communicated regularly, kept us updated throughout the stay, and sent plenty of photos and videos, which gave us so much peace of mind. Our dogs were clearly happy and well cared for. We are so grateful and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving dog sitter. Thank you so much, Ayomi! 🐾"

"I recently used Chris’s Dog Boarding Service for a weekend. My initial dog boarding person was unable to look after my dog less than 2 weeks before I was supposed to go away. I messaged Chris and took my dog to his place for a meet up on the same day. Chris has a very large background and very nice, more than happy to leave my large sized dog at his. Drop off and pick up was efficient. Chris is very responsive to messages and kept me in the loop with daily photo updates - including walks and play. All my dog did when he got home was sleep! My dog was clearly well looked after. I highly recommend Chris and will definitely use his services again in the future. "

"Catriona minded our dog Domino for 6 nights. He appeared very relaxed both inside and outside her home. Catriona has a great back yard for dogs to play and was also happy to have him inside, including overnight. She took him for walks each day and communicated daily with updates. We were reassured that Domino was taken care of in a homely environment and would happily use her again."

"We couldn’t ask for a better dog sitter! Sarah is super easy to communicate with and super flexible and accommodating. My dogs happily remembered Sarah and her family and warmed up to them straight away, which honestly says a lot. Sarah took great care of one of my dogs with very special diet requirements. I got heaps of updates and cute pics while I was away, so I never had to worry. When I got back, my dogs were happy, relaxed, and clearly had a great time."

Why dog boarding ?

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 Canberra ACT for a doggy day care service? You can drop your dog off at the sitter’s home on the way to work or organise with your local Canberra ACT 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 doggy 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 Canberra ACT 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.

Pet owners book dog boarding in Canberra ACT on Pawshake. Over 837 pet owners in Canberra ACT have left a review, with an average of 4.95/5. All paid safely using Visa, Mastercard, American Express
