Loving & Reliable Dog Sitter - Your Pet’s Second Family16.6 km

"We recently entrusted our beloved 8-year-old Labrador, Posto, to Cathy for a few days, and we could not be more thrilled with the experience. From our initial meeting to the moment we picked him up, it was clear that Cathy offers more than just pet-sitting—she offers a truly nurturing, home-like environment where dogs are treated as cherished family members.
The Initial Impression: Professionalism Meets Empathy -
Before the stay, we were immediately impressed by Cathy's professionalism. She asked thorough questions not just about Posto’s physical needs (feeding schedule, medication, walk routine) but also about his personality, his comfort cues, and any anxieties he might have. As an 8-year-old Labrador, Posto is past his puppy phase and is settling into his senior years. While still energetic, he appreciates his routine. Cathy listened intently, showing a genuine empathy that immediately put us at ease.
She didn't treat him like "just another booking"; she treated him like a valued individual. This attention to detail during the consultation phase was the first major sign that we had made the right choice.
The Stay: Unwavering Care and Comfort
The quality of care Posto received during his stay was nothing short of exceptional. The primary goal we had for any sitter was to ensure Posto felt "at home," and Cathy delivered on this promise beautifully.
Maintaining Routine and Comfort -
Labs thrive on routine, and Cathy expertly maintained Posto’s established schedule. His mealtimes were punctual and his walks were stimulating. This consistency is crucial for an older dog, as it minimizes stress and confusion.
More importantly, Cathy went above and beyond to replicate the comforts of our own house. She allowed Posto to snuggle on approved furniture (just like he does at home), had a dedicated space for his favourite blanket and toys, and created an environment that was calm and predictable. This intentional effort to recreate his familiar surroundings is what truly made him feel at ease.
Communication: Peace of Mind Ensured
The communication throughout the booking was outstanding. We received regular updates, beautiful photos, and even short videos that honestly made our time away much more relaxing. Knowing Posto was not just okay, but was genuinely happy and thriving, allowed us to fully enjoy our trip without any underlying worry.
The Farewell: A Happy, Relaxed Dog
The ultimate measure of a great dog sitter is the state of the dog upon pickup. When we arrived, Posto was relaxed, clean, and demonstrably happy. There were no signs of stress, agitation, or anxious energy. He greeted us with his usual enthusiasm but was clearly just as comfortable saying goodbye to Cathy—a clear indicator that a strong, positive bond had formed during his stay.
In conclusion, Cathy exceeded all our expectations.
Thank you, Cathy, for treating Posto like gold!"

"May and Ye made our dogs Aria and Rupert feel welcome at their home. They were both very friendly. They made sure Aria and Rupert settled in their home and their dog also. They sent me an update how the dogs were going and some photos. The photos showed they were settled and enjoyed themselves. The backyard was big that the dogs loved running around and playing. I would recommend May and Ye because they are easy to communicate and helped our dogs settled in because it was their first time to be in a dog sitter’s home and they enjoyed it. Not only are they good dog sitter they are also price affordable. I will definitely use them again in the future.
Thanks May and Ye for looking after Aria and Rupert. We are very happy we picked you as Aria and Rupert’s dog sitters. We will definitely used your service again and will recommend to others. Thank you "

"We couldn’t be happier with Amanda’s care for our dog, Matcha. From the moment we met her, we felt completely at ease leaving Matcha in her hands. Amanda kept us updated with lovely photos from time to time, which really reassured us that Matcha was in great care. It was clear that she genuinely cared for Matcha, and we knew we could trust her. We highly recommend Amanda to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter!"

"Dana and her family took amazing care of our French Bulldog Baxter while we were away. From the moment he arrived, they treated him as if he was part of their own family, which gave us complete peace of mind.
Dana was incredibly attentive to Baxter’s needs ensuring he received his daily medication, regular baths, plenty of playtime, walks and most importantly the same love and care he receives at home.
We were kept updated throughout his stay with regular photos and videos. We were also impressed by the training Dana & Marty worked on with him during his time there.
We can’t thank Dana and her family enough for the amazing care they provided. It was clear Baxter was happy, comfortable and well looked after. We would not hesitate to use their services again in future.
Thank you Dana, Marty and family! "

"Rebecca was fantastic with our dog! She’s incredibly warm and great at what she does. When we came by for a meet and greet, she took the time to observe our dog to understand his nature. She was thoughtful about the mix of dogs that would be at her place and our dog had the best time with her and the other dogs she was caring for. We received daily photos of walks and playtime, and our dog felt comfortable with her, happy to sleep at her feet. We are glad we found Rebecca and no doubt will be seeking her out the next time we go away. Glad to have found someone we can fully trust! Thanks Rebecca!"

"Ani was absolutely wonderful with Bella. This was Bella’s first time ever being away from us, so naturally I was quite nervous, but Ani made the whole experience so much easier. She treated Bella like part of the family and kept me updated with photos and messages, which gave me great peace of mind.
I actually found Ani after ChatGPT recommended her when I was comparing different dog sitters, and I’m so glad it did! Ani stood out straight away, and she completely lived up to the recommendation. Bella was happy, relaxed, and clearly very well cared for throughout her stay.
Ani exceeded my expectations, and I wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again. Thank you, Ani, for taking such amazing care of Bella. I highly recommend you to anyone looking for a caring, reliable, and trustworthy dog sitter 🥰"

"Jose and Luisa are best pet sitters in Melbourne. I left my dog in their care for more than a month while I was overseas. They are very professional, they looked after my dog really well. Well aware of dog health condition and how to handle at home. I am so impressed with their care, when I see my dog. They were giving us regular updates, videos images stories on Instagram and WhatsApp. Words are not enough to appreciate them. My dog will be going into their care each time we go on holidays. Highly recommend Jose and Luisa .. Thank you so much guys. "

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 Greenvale VIC 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 Greenvale 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 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 Greenvale 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.
