Certified dog aunty & cat lady — sitting, walks & day care1.9 km

"Antonia was an absolutely amazing dog sitter for our senior greyhound. He can be anxious with new people but Antonia formed a really sweet bond with him very quickly and he was up on the sofa with her every night (which is the true sign of a friend for life with him)!
She was really diligent with his routine and he thrived with her care. I really appreciated the daily updates and she was very responsive and open.
I’d 100% recommend Antonia to anyone looking for a caring and trustworthy pet sitter. "

"The best experience we’ve ever had with a house and pet sitter! Fran is just wonderful — incredibly professional, thorough and a great communicator. Our little cat Benny was in such good hands for the two weeks we were away. We received regular updates, he absolutely adored Fran, and we came home to a spotless house. We couldn’t recommend Fran more! "

"So pleased with Hannah’s sit, wish she had joined Pawshake earlier so we could’ve had her all these years! Hannah was so thoughtful, respectful and flexible during our week-long trip to Bali. She dealt with an unexpected illness for our dog Maeve with absolute grace. Communication was spot on and she was super conscientious all the way through. Highly recommend!"

"I couldn’t have asked for better people to look after Miyu while I was away!
Chintia and Jeff were so warm, thoughtful and caring, and it was obvious from the regular updates and photos that Miyu felt safe, settled and loved. Coming home to a happy, relaxed dog gave me so much peace of mind.
Miyu can be an anxious pup and take a little while to warm to new people, but she clicked with Chintia and Jeff from the first meet, I was shocked! Miyu seemed more disappointed than excited when I arrived home, it was obvious she enjoyed herself with you guys 😆
Thank you both for taking such wonderful care of her.
I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend you to anyone looking for caring, trustworthy pet sitters."

"Michelle is world class. This was my first time using a pet sitter and it was for 6 weeks so me and my partner were naturally super nervous, Michelle put our minds at ease so quickly!!
She was fabulous at looking after our cats and ensured she met all their individual needs.
The communication was great and she was always quick to reply.
In addition to being incredible at looking after the little cats, Michelle left our house super clean. She looked after our place with such care. This was a lovely treat after a long day of travelling home.
Honestly could not thank Michelle enough and will be 100% booking again for any future trips! "

"Chloe and Darcy were the absolutely best, I could tell that our floofs were in excellent hands at first meeting by the way they spoke to Crumpet and Albie. I got discrete updates while away on how the floofs were doing. I cannot recommend their care enough. Our two dogs sometimes see them on our walks and greet them with lots of wags and demands for pats. "

"Sabrina was so easy to communicate with leading up to the sitting period, she came over and met our pup, and grabbed the keys a couple of days before. During the sit, she kept us updated about our pooch and left the house immaculate. We came home to a very happy puppy and a very tidy house. Absolutely would recommence Sabrina to anyone 🖤"

"Tiana was an amazing sitter and took great care of our two cats. From the get go you can tell that she really understands cats looking at the way she interacted with them but also asking all the right questions. Our two cats got along with her straight away whereas in the past they took more time to open up to their sitter. Tiana sent us regular pictures of our furry babies and also gave us some regular updates. Tiana also took great care of our house and left it even cleaner than when she moved in! A big thank to her again. We highly recommend her and hope to book her again in the future. "

"We honestly could not have asked for a better catsitter than Ghawady. From the moment we met her, you could tell she is a true animal person. She was so kind, calm and genuinely loving with our fur babies.
She took incredible care of them and went above and beyond with updates. We received so many photos and videos while we were away, which gave us complete peace of mind. It was so reassuring seeing how happy and relaxed our cats were in her care.
She also left our home spotless and treated it with so much respect, which we really appreciated.
The funniest part is that when we got home, our cats barely cared we were back. They genuinely seemed to miss their catsitter, which says everything.
We would happily have Ghawady back anytime and cannot recommend her highly enough. 💛🐾"

"Niamh did a fantastic job looking after our two West Highland Terriers, Dougie and Angus, and our Maine Coon cat, Apollo, while house sitting our apartment for six nights. She kept in touch throughout our trip with regular updates and photos, which gave us real peace of mind knowing everyone was happy and well looked after.
We came home to three very happy pets and an apartment that was spotless. She had vacuumed, cleaned everything beautifully and even washed her linen before she left, which was a lovely surprise.
I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Niamh to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter. Thanks again, Niamh. We really appreciate everything you did and we’ll definitely be booking you again for our next trip."

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 East Melbourne 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 East Melbourne 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 East Melbourne 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.
