Top cities for dog boarding in Australia

Being a city with stunning coastlines, Perth pretty much guarantees beautiful scenery and many outdoor activities for you to enjoy with your furry best friend. However, at Pawshake we understand that as much as you would like to bring your dog with you everywhere, sometimes you have to consider dog boarding because it might not be possible to include your dog in certain activities or if you need to travel.
That’s where we can help! Pawshake helps to connect you with many pet sitters all across Perth who offer dog boarding services. This means that you can find someone in your local Perth neighbourhood who will open their home to your dog and love them as much as you do. The dog boarding services that our sitters offer is unlike any kennels. Kennels have a much higher dog to staff ratio and therefore your dog does not get as much one on one time. Not to mention that if your dog is used to a home environment, sending them to a kennel can place some stress on them because it’s so different.
With Pawshake’s dog boarding services, your dog will stay in another home environment and be around more familiar surroundings. Not to mention, there will be a lot more attention, cuddles and love from your dedicated Pawshake pet sitter.
We asked our Pawshake sitters what they love doing with their dog boarding clients and here are some of their recommendations. One of their favourite activities to do with their more active dog boarding clients during really hot Perth days is to head to Rockingham Dog Beach. It’s also safe for dogs because the water is very shallow and still – a perfect place if you are introducing your dog to water for the first time. The other popular option amongst dog boarding sitters is Mosman Dog Beach in Fremantle where the water is also calm and shallow.
If your dog is not into getting wet or maybe is a bit less active, our dog boarding sitters suggest that another option for really hot days is to find a local dog friendly café or pub to relax in with a cold beverage. Many dog friendly cafes also now serve puppachinos for your pup so they don’t feel left out while you are enjoying your drink. The Leaky Tap in Mosman Park even goes one step further and serves theirs in a toilet bowl shaped cup!
Or also try heading your local Perth hardware and garden centre store like Bunnings and wander around. The different sights and smells will keep your dog entertained. Call the store before visiting if you are unsure, but many allow dogs to wander inside as long as they are on a lead.
At Pawshake we understand that it is not easy to entrust your furry best friend to a stranger. This is why our dedicated team checks all sitter profiles thoroughly and those that offer dog boarding must also have pictures of their environment. You can also read reviews left for them by other pet parents like you. This is important to us because we want you to have confidence and feel comfortable with where your dog will be spending their time during their dog boarding stay.
All Pawshake dog boarding bookings in Perth come with our premium insurance and access to our 24 hour customer support team. Your Pawshake sitter will also send you plenty of updates of your dog’s adventures during their dog boarding stay so you can have peace of mind while you are away.

Hello,
I'm an enthusiastic and kind Italian woman living the dream in Perth and I can't wait to walk and pet your pets!
I'm the owner of two little westies, my beautiful fur babies. Zeno and Marta. They both love to go to the beach for a quick swim or to the dog park for a long run on the grass.

 When I lived in Italy I helped my family and my friends with their pets, especially during their holidays.

 I'm a clean and tidy person, if your pet will accidentally make a little mess I will help you to maintain your house in a good condition.

 I am a very responsible and punctual person, if you will give me your trust I will be very respectful and I won't stand up for any reason. 

 I have a drivers license and a car. 

 I'm living in a beautiful and peaceful place in Perth, with many parks and trees and near the river, so walkies will always be a good moment. 

 I will feed your pet as per your instructions with the food you will provide for. 

 I am not a doctor, but I have my own dogs and I had a very old one in my care, so if you require it, I can administer the oral or topical medicines you need.

 I am currently working from 9am to 5pm, from Monday to Friday, so during these days I will be available just for one walk during the afternoon and just during my free time. House visitis can be considered just if you live near to my area.

 I provide home sitting just for one small dog at the time. About pet day care: it can be available just on the weekends and free days.

I think that animals are special, I am very compassionate and caring for them, in fact I'm vegetarian since 2018.

If you're interested please don't hesitate to contact me, I will be so excited to have a new pet friend.

We love to take care any pets🫶🏼 We are back in Rockingham 

About us
We are Guady and Nico, an Italian-Argentine couple, we love nature and we love being in the company of animals because they make us feel at home. We really like traveling to learn about new cultures and make new friends, we are vegetarians. We are very positive and cheerful, we love music, singing and I play the guitar (Nico) and I am a photographer (Guady)
We are in Australia, we live in Perth (WA). We think the better way to keep traveling and meeting new people and other magical beings is doing housesitting.
We have always had pets since we were little, we love animals (that is why we are vegetarians) and we are always the caretakers of our friends' pets when they need it. In Argentina  we have been taking care of our friends' houses and animals on many occasions.&nbsp;
We have lived different experiences with another App, we took care of cats and dogs in Berlin , Ginebra , Châtel , Verchaix, Sydney , Collie Busselton , Vienna , Paris , London , Barcelona , and Perth 
&nbsp;We are very excited to be able to discover new places with these beautiful beings. We have lots of reviews in the other app that you could see.&nbsp;
We would like to know more about you!!&nbsp;


    

  Hi there!&nbsp;
  
  We’re a small, animal-loving family - myself, my husband, our 8-year-old son, and our baby - plus our gentle 15-year-old rescue Jack Russell. He’s great with other dogs and cats, and enjoys a peaceful, relaxed life.
  
  I’m a qualified dog trainer with over 15 years’ experience in animal welfare, including roles as shelter manager, dog trainer, and foster care manager. I currently teach puppy classes at multiple vet clinics around Perth.
  
  We would love to care for your fur baby while you’re away, treating them with the same love and attention we give our own pets.
  
   Dog Guests:
  • Must be good with children
  • Must be social with other dogs (especially my senior dog)
  • Toilet/house trained
  • Cannot have separation anxiety (we want to ensure all pets feel secure)
  
  We have a fully fenced backyard, a doggie door for garden access, and a comfy home where your dog is welcome on the couch, bed, or wherever they feel at ease.&nbsp;
  Daily walks, playtime, and snuggles are part of the routine. Overnight, your dog can sleep where they’re most comfortable.&nbsp;
  
  Please note:
  • We’re best suited to care for adult/ senior dogs
  • Unfortunately, we cannot accommodate puppies or adolescents, as our senior dog can’t keep up with the play they request from him or the energy they bring 



  We look forward to welcoming your dog into our home and providing them with a safe, loving environment while you’re away  



Hey there, my name is Sarah-Lee, I am here to help if you need a sitter/walker at your place or mine wherever is best for that individual pet! I adore animals particularly dogs and this is my way of helping the community and getting to hang with all of your furry friends.Although I work full time, I can be available some mornings and evenings and definitely most weekends so please contact me if you would like a helping hand! I cant wait to meet you and your pet/s!I am a 33 y/o female, living with my partner in our own house, we both work as mental health nurses. We are both animal loving, mature, kind, safe and reliable people. We have a large garden with unfortunately no enclosed spaces for an animal to roam safely. Because of this doggie walks and visits or pet sitting in your own home may be safer and more suitable. Living in thePerth Hills offers fantastic dog exercise areas, one of which on the outskirts of Kalamunda: Jorgensen Park incorporates a 2.7km walk and dogs are permitted off-leash. AlsoWhistlepipe Gully in Mundy Regional Park is such a pretty place to walk, especially during wildflower season.So far I've had nothing but positive and safe experiences when people book me through pawshake. I think it's a wonderful system and it enables animal lovers and people in need of help minding them to come together!When viewing my rates please consider that 19% of the fee goes directly to Pawshake for insurance and this site.

Hi! We are a couple of passionate animal lovers with hands-on experience caring for dogs. Over the years, we’ve had the privilege of looking after several dogs, which has given us valuable knowledge about different personalities, needs, and routines. From feeding and walking to playtime and comfort, we truly enjoy being around pets and making sure they feel safe, loved, and happy.

Our motivation to offer pet sitting comes from our lifelong love of animals. We know how much pets mean to their families, and we want to provide the same care and affection that we would give our own. We believe every pet deserves patience, attention, and kindness, and we take pride in being people that owners can fully trust.

We offer pet boarding and daily care services, either in our home or in yours. If you’re looking for caring, reliable, and responsible sitters, we’d love to meet you and your furry friend! 


Hello,
My name is Valentina and 1 am currently living in Perth. I arrived on Monday, 16th February 2026.
I would like to tell you a little about myself. Since I can remember, nature (both flora and fauna) has been one of the most important parts of my life. I was born in the countryside in Chile, and my dad is a fruit grower, so I was always surrounded by nature.
Since I was a child, I have always been deeply interested in animals of all kinds.
I have never lived without a pet. I was the one who tried to save frogs that fell into the pool, rescued stray dogs and cats, and spent hours watching Nat Geo Wild, Animal Planet, and Discovery Channel.
My love for plants and animals is immense - it is something I find difficult to express in words, and I often try to capture it through my photography. I truly feel that my purpose in life is to protect and help every single species.
1am a very passionate person and I am willing to learn any task and challenge myself to achieve my goals, including studying something related to animals in the future.
