"Zoe was an excellent dog sitter for my two spoilt boys and loved the dogs and gave them good care whilst I was on holiday.
The house was cleaned and all linen and towels washed and every thing when she left was spotless.
I would recommend Zoe to any one wanting a good sitter and reliable and animal lover.

"Christina was amazing! We have never used a pet sitter for our 13 year old dog before but from the first meeting Christina was so great with him!
We got regular photos and messages and he was so comfortable with her. In the 2 weeks we were away it was great to know he was in such great care.
I would highly recommend Christina so anyone who’s looking for a dog sitter, she’s the best! Would 100% book her again. Thank you Christina! "

"We have 3 cats, and they all have extremely different needs and totally different personalities. We had previously had the same pet sitter for over 10 years and this was our first experience of using Pawshake.
We couldn't be happier with Mira. She came to our home prior to the stay to go over the many requirements we had for each cat and just to meet us in general, as I was extremely apprehensive about a new pet sitter that our cats did not know.
One of my cats has extreme anxiety when new people come into our home and she was very accommodating to his needs. I was also worried about them being inside cats and the possibility of them getting out. Mira completely understood this was a major priority for us and was very conscious of ensuring they were kept safe.
Mira sent us photos and updates every day, and after a couple of days of being away my apprehension disappeared and I knew we had made the right choice. They were clearly relaxed and happy. My youngest cat in particular took a real shine to Mira and was besotted with her.
I cannot recommend Mira more highly, she absolutely deserves the 5 stars we have given her. She clearly has an affinity with cats. We will definitely have her come again.
Thanks Mira for being so patient, caring and accommodating to 3 very different cats, all with varying needs. "

"Claire was outstanding, very attentive and followed our instructions to the T, also leaving the house in immaculate condition. The cats and chickens were regularly attended to and she went above and beyond in making sure we were replied to quickly, sending pictures when requested. Couldn't fault her at all and we will be keeping in contact for future engagement."

"Jen and Ant took wonderful care of our 3 senior dogs while we were away on holiday - they sent through photos and updates to keep us in the loop and when we met them before we left, they clearly love dogs in general and enjoy dog sitting. Thanks for giving us peace of mind that our doggos were well taken care of so we could enjoy our time away."

"Mel is a lovely person and me and my dog Smokey adored her from day dot. Mel looked after Smokey in his home for quite an extended period of time(2weeks) and when I returned home he seemed very well cared for and even seems to miss Mel a bit. Mel made the effort to meet up with us on a number of occasions before I went away so as Smokey could become familiar with her, she walked him, made sure he was fed and kept him company. I was nervous about getting a sitter but Mel was great and I would definitely recommend Mel to anyone needing a sitter. "

"I am a rescue foster carer and have 5 rescue Tibetan Spaniels and 1 rescue kitty. Four of the dogs are very traumatised due to their lengthy past of living in cages and without any human interaction, except for in a negative way. Due to this and understanding the challenges of babysitting them, I have not left them before. So, I had much anxiety about leaving them and really not that comfortable with someone coming into my home...but I needed a house-sitter.
I found Mariya after another babysitter on another Pet-sitting site let me down at the Meet and Greet stage (better this than during the house-sit which has happened to me before and also to a friend).
Mariya was (is) amazing. She is a caring, thoughtful, considerate, intelligent, capable and solution-orientated person.
Four of the dogs were manageable with Mariya providing some additional approaches in their best interests, yet all time consuming for her. However, one dog was beyond a challenge. Mariya worked with me (me remotely) for an appropriate approach that supported the dog and and also worked for the others. This really reassured me - both her frankness and the way she eagerly wanted to work through a solution. She was amazing! Another house-sitter would have given up.
I am vegan and have allergies. So, she decided without discussion to bring her own crockery, cutlery, cookware, sheets, towels so as not to contaminate anything of mine. Wow! I've never experienced such care and compassion. It definitely wasn't my expectation for her to do this.
I came home to a clean house, as clean as I left it and I'm a clean freak. I also came home to very happy babies. It was wonderful and reassuring.
OK - only negative... my kitty and one of the dogs have issued me with their Vacate Notices. They've decided to shift in with Mariya!! She was that loved by them and by all (and this was evident in the photos, clips she updated me with regularly).
I am unsure if Pawshake allow this, but would be happy for anyone considering Mariya to contact me for more information.
I feel I have not only found an amazing house-sitter, but also found a new wonderful friend.
Thank you Mariya from all of us in The Unit of Love!

"Midori house and dog sat for us and I couldn’t be happier with the service she provided. She was great with my dog who took to her straight away. She was very contentious sending photos/updates everyday and asking questions to check on my dogs habits and that everything was fine. The house was pristine when we got home. Would definitely recommend her as a very reliable dog sitter. "

"An excellent communicator and incredibly well-organised, Amy provided us with a stress-free time away and cared for our pet and home beyond what we expected.
Amy was punctual, thoughtful and tailored her sitting service to suit our needs. She was responsible for giving our pet his medication, ensuring he had play and a chance to stretch his legs, and provided us with regular updates and lovely photos. I would recommend Amy to anyone wanting to ensure their pet and home are cared for the same way owners would!"

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 Doveton 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 Doveton 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 Doveton 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.
