"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."

"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!"

"We couldn’t have asked for a better pet sitter for Bonnie. She was incredibly well cared for and treated like part of the family. We really appreciated the daily updates, photos, and videos, which gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. It was clear Bonnie was happy, VERY comfortable, and loved throughout her stay. We would absolutely book again, and I’m sure Bonnie would definitely love to go back. Granielle also went above and beyond when we had to extend. Thanks again Granielle, really appreciate it! Highly recommend! 😊"

"We had the most wonderful experience with Roisin, who cared for our dog Troy while we were away.
This was a last-minute booking after our regular pet sitter became unavailable, and Roisin was incredibly quick to respond. Even though she doesn’t usually take big dogs, she kindly accepted our request which already meant so much to us.
From day one, she went above and beyond. She sent daily updates, spent quality time playing with Troy in the backyard, took him for walks, and even to the dog park. It gave us such peace of mind knowing he was not just being looked after, but genuinely cared for and loved.
For a first-time experience, this truly exceeded all expectations — and it definitely won’t be the last time we book with her. Roisin is absolutely amazing, and I would highly recommend her to any dog parent. Your fur baby will be happy and well cared for in her home 🐾"

"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 cannot thank Sunny enough for the incredible care she provided for my fur baby. After a traumatizing experience with a previous pet sitter, our pet needed someone exceptionally responsible, gentle, and experienced—and Sunny was everything we needed and more.
She did an amazing job caring for him physically, but what impressed me most was how she supported him mentally. She was patient, attentive, and helped him heal and rebuild his confidence after his last bad stay.
Seeing him relaxed and happy in her care brought us so much peace of mind.
Sunny is truly a compassionate professional. We will definitely be returning to her for all future stays. Highly recommended!"

"We have gone with Jimmy multiple times since the beginning, and he has been caring and reliable. He treats my little mini dachshund, Tux, like family, allowing him to cuddle on the couch and in his bed. Jimmy’s dogs and cat seem good with Tux, and this is important because Tux can get pretty cautious with other dogs. Jimmy slowly introduces his pets to Tux to ensure it makes him feel comfortable. Have gone with Jimmy for both doggy day care and short boarding. Would recommend. "

"Anthony and Lorenzo took care of our dog, Kayu, for nearly three weeks, and we couldn’t have asked for better sitters! They were incredibly attentive, providing daily updates with multiple pictures and videos that kept us connected to Kayu throughout. It was clear from the updates that Kayu was not only well cared for but truly happy, comfortable, and having so much fun in their care. Their dedication and attention to detail meant we never had to worry, even for a moment.
Kayu also seemed to make some great friends while she was with them, we hope she doesn’t miss Anthony, Lorenzo, and her new buddies too much😭
It’s such a relief to know your pet is in loving and capable hands while you’re away. We’re so grateful for their kindness and professionalism.
Anthony and Lorenzo are absolutely the best! Highly recommend them to anyone looking for trustworthy and caring pet sitters. 😊😊"

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 Sunshine West 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 Sunshine West 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 Sunshine West 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.
