"I highly recommend Rivka! Her genuine love for pets is amazing and she has gone above and beyond to establish rapport with my dog ahead of a month long stay, including several walks and an overnight stay. Rivka’s communication is professional and proactive. I especially appreciated regular updates and photos during the overnight stay. I will definitely be rebooking Rivka anytime I require pet sitter or walking for my dog. "

"Cleophe provided exceptional care for my pet while I was away. She is lovely to work with—reliable, communicative, responsive, and caring. I received updates with photos and notes, which gave me complete peace of mind throughout my trip. My pet was clearly well looked after, and I returned to a clean and tidy home. I highly recommend Cleophe and would happily book her again in the future."

"Matt and Grace were absolutely exceptional pet and house-sitters! They took wonderful care of our precious girl Journey, spoiled her thoroughly, and sent outstanding daily updates complete with the most adorable photos. We came home to a completely spotless house. They are hands-down the best sitters we’ve ever had. We highly recommend them and are already looking forward to them watching Journey again for two weeks in September!
Thank you, Matt and Grace!"

"Lydah is a fabulous house and pet sitter. Lydah is a great communicator, very prompt, followed instructions really well and left our house spotless. Lydah did a wonderful job with our new doggie Daisie who was calm and happy when we returned. Lydah showed great initiative while we were away, and we had a wonderful worry free weekend! Thank you Lydah. Highly recommended!"

"Kirstine did a fantastic job housesitting for us 8 nights and looking after our small pets – 1 x 17yo dog, 1 x 17yo cat, 1 x 13yo dog and an energetic 6 yo dog. I was nervous about leaving the seniors as they have health issues and require medication but I needn’t have been concerned as Kirstine was comfortable taking care of senior animals and administering medication. Kirstine came to our home a few times before we left so she could get to know everyone which was important as our 17 yo dog is blind. She updated me regularly with messages and photos, checked if I was happy with the frequency of updates and contacted me to let me know all was OK when there had been a storm as one of the dogs is terrified of storms. When we returned our carpet had been vacuumed, floors mopped, bed linen washed and bed remade, grass watered and poo-free. There was fresh milk in the fridge and chicken necks for the dogs for the following morning so I didn’t need to rush out and shop which was much appreciated. Our flight was delayed but she waited for us to get home and fed everyone so all we had to do was relax. Kirstine is a very caring person and I would highly recommend her as a housesitter. I will be happy for her to look after our pets again when we are away in the future. "

"Cate house sat for us for about 5 weeks.
We have a menagerie of pets that she cared for including chickens, cats and a dog. She managed very well with some minor unexpected issues with the pets. We found her to be very calm and capable. We were able to relax on our holiday knowing she was taking good care of our pets."

"Karen is the epitome of an excellent cat sitter. She is also undergoing her final year of becoming a Vet so we knew our 3 cats would be in great hands. She provided us with multiple daily updates and pictures of our cats with a brief message on how they were doing, which to us was very much appreciated. She was also very clean and tid. Overall 10/10 we would be using her regularly from now on when available."

"From our first contact, EG was responsive, dedicated to understanding our shy, older cat and her needs, and attentive to our needs as well. They were naturally patient and gentle, just as our cat needed, and we felt reassured that she would be comfortable as possible with EG as her sitter. Communication was good, and we came home to a healthy, cared-for cat and a neat and tidy house. We would happily have EG sit for us again, and recommend them as a pet sitter. "

"Jillian was excellent - as my first experience with a housesitter and with two senior large dogs with orthopedic issues her level of attention, care and communication allowed me to take some time out and feel comfortable with leaving my dogs behind. Updates and photos gave me comfort and I returned to two happy dogs. Will definitely seek Jillian’s assistance again when required."

"Gemma is a superstar. Prompt and clear communication from the start and exactly what we were looking for. We have a high needs kitty with a big personality and Gemma was able to administer his multiple medicines and feeds and even managed to have him purring and sitting on her lap. Wise and responsible beyond her years, I would definitely recommend Gemma and will be booking her again for our future trips. "

"We had the pleasure of first of all meeting Michaela and then having her look after our pets (dog bird fish) nothing was to much trouble for her right from the very start and being first timers she settled our apprehension quickly. I have no trouble recommending Michaela she went above and beyond with her sitting and the animals on our return are still pining for her! 5 star service in all aspects. Thanks again Michaela "

Why house sitting ?
Are you going away but have a pet that prefers to stay in their own environment? Or perhaps you have a range of different animals and it’s not practical for you to organise for them to stay in different places? Then you might want to consider finding a Pawshake house sitter to come and stay at your Acton ACT home while you are away.
House sitting is a convenient and affordable option when you have multiple pets and also want your house to be securely looked after while you are away. Many of our pet sitters have very reasonable house sitting rates because they enjoy staying and exploring different local neighbourhoods like Acton ACT.
At Pawshake, we understand that trusting your home to a stranger can be a little daunting. So we’ve done all the hard work to ensure that your Pawshake house sitter is trustworthy and reliable. All our pet sitter profiles are checked individually by our dedicated trust and safety team and some house sitters also have their own police checks which they can share with you.
The best thing about engaging a Pawshake verified house sitter is that you can relax knowing that on top of being covered by The Pawshake Guarantee which includes veterinary coverage, so your pets are being cared for in a familiar environment and your Acton ACT home is also being looked after as well.
In addition to looking after your pets, most of our house sitters will happily help you by collecting your mail, taking out the bins, and watering your plants. Just make sure you discuss all your requirements with your chosen house sitter prior to booking.
