"Hands down the best pet sitter ever!I cannot recommend Aiye enough! She watched our four furbabies—our two big dogs (Anika and Bentley) and our two cats (Kobi and Aki)—from July 15th to 21st while we were away in Bali for our wedding. Leaving our pets for a trip that huge was super stressful, but Aiye gave me complete peace of mind. She sent photos and videos every single day, was always super easy to reach, and answered any texts right away. Seeing those updates while away was such a massive relief.From our very first meetup, all four of our pets clicked with her instantly. She genuinely loved them, picked up on their little personalities right away, and catered to their every need.She followed our routine to a T! Managing our setup isn't simple. Our dogs are outdoors only and our cats are strictly indoors. She handled feeding perfectly, keeping our big food-thief Anika over in the car porch area while Bentley got to take his sweet time eating on the decking. She also looked after the cats' feeder, water, and litter without missing a beat. Aiye goes SO far above and beyond. At one point, our youngest cat Aki decided to hide behind the TV. Aiye spent her entire visit searching for him to make sure he was okay. I literally told her she could go home and I’d just check our indoor cameras later to see when he came out, but she refused to leave until she actually found him herself! She left the house absolutely spotless. We adore her and her husband so much that we told them to help themselves to drinks and snacks and kick back with the TV while visiting.To be honest, I trust her with my pets when I don't even feel comfortable leaving them with family (besides my sister!). I will 100% be hiring her every single time we travel from now on. You truly couldn’t ask for a better person to trust with your animals!"

"Seeun was an exceptional cat sitter. She is knowledgeable, kind, and genuinely caring, and took wonderful care of our cat, Luna, with daily visits over three weeks. She was always reliable and communicated consistently, sending us plenty of photos and updates each day. Luna quickly became comfortable with Seeun and clearly loved the attention and care she received. Seeing their photos together gave us great peace of mind while we were away. When we returned, Luna was happy and well cared for, and our home was spotless. We’re so grateful to have found Seeun, and we’ve already rebooked her for our next trip. We highly recommend Seeun to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate pet sitter."

"Jessie and Calvin were lovely and took great care of my cats, Charlie and Peanut! They sent me photos and updates every time they visited, which was really nice and reassuring while I was away. I really appreciate them taking the time to keep me updated and make sure my cats were doing well. I’d definitely recommend them to anyone looking for a caring and reliable pet sitter! Thanks again Jessie and Calvin! "

"Marion was absolutely amazing! She took such wonderful care of our four bunnies while we were overseas. My partner and I were quite nervous about leaving them behind, but Marion instantly put us at ease with her excellent communication and regular photo updates. She was incredibly thoughtful and attentive especially on hot days in Melbourne keeping us informed and making sure our apartment stayed cool and comfortable for the rabbits. We came home to very happy, well-cared-for bunnies and couldn’t be more grateful. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Marion to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter."

"To say Elena is one of the best is an understatement. She simply IS the best. I discovered Paw Shake and by extension Elena’s outstanding reviews when looking for at-home cat feeding/care while I was overseas for 2.5 weeks. After contacting her through the site, Elena promptly replied and we soon set up a first meeting to see my cat's environment and for us all to meet each other. Elena is a gentle and kind person. As a mother-mother and a cat mother herself, as well as someone who works in childcare, she has the best qualities for this job. However she exceeded my expectations on every level. She visited daily while I was away, not only feeding and cleaning feeding bowls etc, but she played with, entertained, cleaned out the litter. But then also took the time to write detailed reports supported by numerous photos and videos. The time she spent made my cat happy, stimulated and allowed her to remain in a perfect routine. I wholeheartedly trust Elena in my home, and to look after anyone's pet. I encourage you, if you are reading this review, to book Elena now, especially so if you are a cat owner. I'll be forever grateful of the care, time and love she has given my darling cat. If I could give her an 11 out of 10 rating, I would!"

Frequently asked questions about pet sitting

Your pet sitting questions answered

Is Pawshake like a pet hotel?

No: unlike a pet hotel, your furry friend will never stay in a cage, or even leave home if this doesn't suit you. Pet sitting can either be in a safe home environment, or in your own home. It's very personalised to suit you and your pet.

Who can be a pet sitter?

We have hundreds of applicants to join Pawshake every week, but we accept less than 25% of these. Anyone who joins our website must have practical pet care experience and a motivation to be able to provide excellent service. They must be also be verified by SMS, email and location.

What do I get when I book a pet sitter?

When you book a pet sitter through Pawshake, you are getting a personalised carer who can meet your needs. Is your pet a bit shy? Then book a sitter who can stay in your home or pop by to visit. Does your pet love company? Then arrange for your pet to have a fun staycation in a sitter's family home.

Can I find your pet sitters in Melbourne?

Absolutely. Our pet sitters are found in every Melbourne suburb and are ready and eager to help you and your pet. Just head to our website: you won't need to look far from home to find your pet's perfect match.
