"Our family was delighted to meet Marcela to look after our large breed dog and 18yr old cat. Our dog was fond of her as soon as they met. Marcela firstly arrived at our house for a meet and greet and met us again just before we were leaving for our trip. She organised a park play for our dog to understand his outdoor routine and came back to our house to go over both pets needs for when we were away. Her communication was daily with photos and videos. Anything I had missed to explain she covered immediately. Our family felt an instant trust with Marcela and this was proven by her reliability and her amazing care she took of our pets and house. She gave more than we expected. Marcela gave us peace of mind to travel far from home and we are so grateful for meeting her. I highly recommend her services and can not praise her enough. I will definitely be contacting her for future jobs."

"We were just at ease our entire trip knowing we had Fran taking care of our cats and home. Fran was absolutely lovely, communication ran smoothly and she was warm and friendly, and gave us updates. Both cats took to her immediately, even Lil Gus who is usually rather timid. She’s definitely is our go to sitter. "

"Jason spent a couple of weeks house sitting our 3 cats and 1 dog. We're very happy/satisfied with the experience and outcome, our dog Matilda likes him a lot and our cats also got to trust him which is a good indication of care. Our house was in excellent condition after those two weeks. Totally recommend him."

"Stephanie was an excellent sitter, she took great care of my two pets and I felt comfortable the whole time I was away. She was great at communicating with me despite the time zone differences, and on return I could see both my house and pets were well kept and very happy! "

"Yvette is a fantastic cat sitter. She kept in regular contact and sent photos. When my cat was suddenly unwell she contacted me immediately and also called my vet. She was happy to clean up the mess including washing all bedding and the carpet. I highly recommend Yvette - she’s a great cat and house sitter and my cat loved her. Would definitely book again"

"Kimi is a warm, friendly and caring person who is diligent and considerate. She cared for our two cats for ten days and we came home to find them very happy and healthy with the house left spotless. She went above and beyond, washing bedding/towels and setting up our bed. We highly recommend Kimi for cat and house sitting, she is wonderful! "

"Jasmine housesat for us for two nights and did and amazing job taking care of our dog and kitten. She was in regular contact and sent photos and updates, Fergus the dog got some epic walks. When we got back the house looked amazing - cleaner than before we left! If you are looking for friendly, reliable, conscientious people to look after your home and fur babies then look no further! "

"We had Lily stay at our house and look after our dog for 12 nights. Lily was amazing. Our dog took to her immediately and it was obvious from the daily updates that he was very relaxed and happy being looked after by her. Lily was very accomodating to our and our dogs needs. She also managed to train our dog to go through the dog door which we had been trying to do for months! The house was also very well looked after and spotless when we got home. We will definitely book her again. "

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 Balaclava VIC 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 Balaclava VIC.

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 Balaclava VIC 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.
