"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 "

"I can't recommend Alexndra enough as a dog sitter! She took amazing care of my two dogs, Romeo (a playful Golden Retriever) and Juliet (my sweet naughty Beagle). From the moment we met her, I knew they were in great hands.
Alexandra was attentive, loving, and made sure both of them got plenty of exercise, cuddles, and attention. She kept me updated with pictures and messages everyday, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. Romeo adored his playtime and ear rubs, and Juliet loved all the attention and walks. It was clear that Alexandra genuinely cares about animals and treats them like her own.
If you're looking for a reliable, trustworthy, and kind dog sitter, Alexandra is the best choice! I’ll definitely be booking her again."

""I want to give a huge shout out to Gaurav, for taking care of Meeko while we were away! He looked after my dog while I was away for vacation and it was a great experience. Gaurav was so thoughtful and caring with my pup - he was always checking in, sending photos and updates, and made sure my pup was comfortable and happy. He even took my pup on walks and played with him. I was so thankful for his amazing care and I can highly recommend Gaurav to anyone looking for a pet sitter! #petsitting #petsitter #dog #pawshake #petcare #petlove #vacation""

"I like to give my honest & positive reviews to Chris & Yuhan. From the moment they met my girl, I could tell they are a true animal lover. I was feeling abit nervous leaving my girl behind the first 2 days but Chris & Yuhan completely put my mind at ease. They sent regular updates and photos, great communication, they followed my feeding, the daily routine instructions perfectly.
My girl bonded with them so well and it was such a comfort to know my fur baby were in such safe, attentive hands. They both treated my girl like a baby indeed, spoiled and loved by them so much. I also want to give a special shout out to Yuhan putting extra efforts cleaning & tying up my girl's hair, brushing daily. I really appreciated it. They are the best dog sitters I've met, genuinely great people. Highly recommend!"

"First time using this service, I didn’t know what to expect. But Kat was amazing!
You know she truly cares about the doggos she looks after, as she messaged me after the booking to check in and see how my fur baby was doing after having an upset tummy. She also wipes eye boogers away with no hesitation, which might not mean much to some people, but it showed me that she’s the real deal! Will be calling Kat every time I need a dog sitter ❤️ "

"I recently booked Jennifer and Troy through Pawshake to look after my two furbabies Chino and Orie for a week while I was on holiday, and I had an absolutely wonderful experience. It was my first time ever leaving my dogs with someone new, but from the very beginning, Jennifer and Troy made me feel comfortable and confident that my dogs were in good hands.
One of the main reasons I chose them was the way they instantly connected with my dogs and the thoughtful, pet-friendly environment they provide. Their home felt safe, welcoming, and perfect for my dogs’ needs. Throughout the entire week, they kept me updated every single day with photos, videos, and messages—letting me know how my dogs were doing, what their day looked like, and how they were settling in. Those updates gave me so much peace of mind and made it easy to enjoy my holiday without worrying.
Most importantly, my babies came back happy, relaxed, and clearly well looked after. They looked like they truly enjoyed their stay and felt right at home with Jennifer and Troy. I’m incredibly grateful for the level of care and attention they provided.
I would 100% recommend Jennifer and Troy to anyone looking for caring, reliable, and genuinely loving pet sitters. I will definitely book with them again."

She made sure he got plenty of exercise and mental stimulation, kept him safe and comfortable, and clearly genuinely enjoyed spending time with him. It’s obvious she has real experience with energetic young dogs - she never seemed overwhelmed. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter who treats your dog like family!"

"Antonio is simply a great dog sitter we've ever had the pleasure of working with! From the moment we met him, it was clear that he has a true passion for animals and a natural way with our furry friends. He took the time to get to know our dogs routines and preferences, and we felt completely at ease leaving our pup Luna in his care. Antonio was incredibly professional, reliable, and communicative, providing regular updates and photos while we were away. Our dog was so happy and well taken care of when we returned, it was like we never left! We are so grateful for Antonio's dedication and trustworthiness, and we will definitely be booking with him again. Thank you, Antonio, for your exceptional care and for treating our dog like one of your own!"

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 Melton South 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 Melton South 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 Melton South 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.
