"We couldn’t have asked for a better cat sitter for our two cats, Ash and Misha! From the moment we met, it was clear they were in caring, capable hands.Danielle took the time to understand each of their personalities—Misha being the more playful one and Ash a bit more reserved—and gave them both exactly the attention they needed. We received regular updates and photos, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. It was clear our cats were comfortable, well-fed, and most importantly, happy. We came home to two relaxed and content kitties, and the house was just as we left it. We highly recommend Danielle to anyone looking for a trustworthy, attentive, and genuinely kind pet sitter. Ash and Misha will definitely be looking forward to their next visit!"

"I highly recommend Jane if you’re looking for a pet sitter. We had daily updates and our rather shy older cat even came out of hiding for some parting after a couple of days! "

"Lacey, we cannot recommend you highly enough! Thank you for taking such wonderful care of our two cats while we were away for three weeks. Your daily updates and photos gave us complete peace of mind and it was clear from the start that our boys were happy, loved, and very well cared for. We were especially grateful that you administered medication to one of our cats with such care and professionalism. Your honesty, reliability, and genuine love of animals truly set you apart. When we arrived home, our cats were relaxed, content, and clearly very fond of you. We would not hesitate to use your services again and would happily recommend you to anyone looking for an exceptional cat sitter. Thank you, Lacey, you are amazing!"

"Lily was brilliant with our two cats and was very reliable, trustworthy and courteous. We had one visit per day to feed our cats over a three week period. Everything was kept clean and tidy. We loved having Lily as part of our household and thoroughly recommend her service. "

"Jenna is a true consummate professional. She demonstrated a keen knowledge on how to handle cats, and is very respectful of them. Our cats aren't the easiest to handle during mealtime, but she demonstrated great patience in ensuring that they're all fed properly even if they were being difficult. Jenna also kept us connected to our cats through a very pleasant daily photobomb of photos of our cats. It's almost like we never left. And truth be told, she takes way better photos of our cats than we do... so that's certainly an added plus. Will 10/10 recommend Jenna in a heartbeat."

"Stacey is such a life saver. Our cats are not easiest cats to care for, Stacey was always available, went above and beyond to attend to their needs, including last minute request to help with medical needs for Lilan. Even Binx who is a super shy cat ended up a purring machine near Stacey. Stacey, we can’t thank you enough for your care of the last 3 weeks! Definitely will ask your help again next time"

"Thank you Julia for looking after my 3 cats! You are a gem:) Julia was fantastic with my cats, she treated them as if her own. She communicated with me on a daily basis and sent updates. Julia even administered oral meds to my senior cat:)) I felt comfortable leaving my cats to Julia and will definitely reach out again next time. This is a great value for money and also my cats can stay at home at their comfort of care. "

"Ilana looked after my cat Alice when I was interstate for work for a week. She was very communicative and showed proactiveness, trying to understand my (Alice’s) needs well before the designated visits. She told me roughly what time she’d be visiting and would send me message on how she got along with Alice each day as Alice is a timid cat and can be hard to judge how she’s doing. Ilana was great and I know Alice would be in good hands if she was ever to look after Alice again! I highly recommend her looking after your pet babies :)"

Why pet sitting ?

When you have to go away or work long hours, you may worry about leaving your pet home alone. Have you ever wondered “Is there a pet or dog sitter in Balaclava VIC that can help?”.

Luckily, with Pawshake, you can easily find local and trusted pet and dog carers from Balaclava VIC to provide drop in visits and other services. This means a pet sitter will come and visit your pet at a time you both agree on and provide lots of love and personal attention. This can include playtime in the backyard, a walk to the local park, or just some cuddle time. Our pet carers can also administer medication, give food, and refresh the water bowl.

In home pet sitting services are a great way to break up the day and enrich it for your pet. Pawshake pet sitters have extensive experience caring for a range of pets including dogs, cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, birds and more. If you have multiple pets, home visits are a great option to ensure that they all get a visit and lots of attention during the day.

Drop in visits are the least stressful option for your pet because your pet can stay in their favourite environment – their own home in Balaclava VIC. Their surroundings will be familiar and our loving and passionate Pawshake sitter will spoil them each day. Our sitters will treat your home with respect and are flexible with timing, requests and durations. All this can be discussed before you make a home visit booking.

Pet boarding is a great option for when you are away for a few days and your pet needs overnight care. Unlike pet hotels, Pawshake pet boarding allows you to arrange a personalised daily routine for your pet, whether this be extra belly rubs, playtime or 24 hour supervision. Your pet will stay with the pet sitter in a cosy home environment, rather than a large, impersonal pet hotel.

So whether you need just one day, a week or even a month, you’ll be able to find an experienced pet or dog carer to accommodate you and your pet’s needs in Balaclava VIC. The best part is that your Pawshake pet sitter is from your local neighbourhood, so they will be familiar with the area.

Our pet carers also have a range of experiences which include puppies, seniors, nervous pets and dog training. So if your pet has special requirements, you’ll be sure to find a pet sitter that is a good match for you.

Your pet’s safety and welfare is a big priority for us, which is why all of our Pawshake pet sitters undergo a strict vetting process by our trust and safety team. At Pawshake, we understand that you might feel a little uneasy allowing a pet sitter to enter your home or arranging pet boarding at their place. This is why Pawshake pet sitters also have reviews from other pet parents that are publicly available on their profile for you to read.

Each pet sitting home visit and pet boarding booking made through Pawshake is covered by the Pawshake Guarantee, which includes veterinary coverage, customer support 7 days a week and more. Rest easy knowing that your pets will be well looked after by one of our expert pet carers in Balaclava VIC.

Pet owners book pet sitting in Balaclava VIC on Pawshake. Over 14164 pet owners in Balaclava VIC have left a review, with an average of 4.96/5. All paid safely using Visa, Mastercard, American Express
