"Thank you Holly for looking after our toy poodle Coco at the Langham Hotel Southbank while we went out to the theatre. Holly was right on time and looked after Coco very well for the whole afternoon. Would highly recommend Holly as a reliable and caring dog sitter."

"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. "

"Jessie was the most wonderful cat sitter we have had! She constantly checked in to let us know how our animals were, sent through many photos. The house was spotless, even tidier than when we left it! It was an absolute pleasure to have Jessie at our home for 7 nights. Would highly recommend and definitely be using again 😁😁😁"

"Bettina was such a loving pet sitter and Rennie absolutely adored having her and partner stay with him. They carer after him, took him on many walks and played with him beautifully. They listened to our needs and nothing was too much trouble. We can’t thank them enough! "

"Tannia supported us with a last minute request following another boarder letting us down. She came to see us and meet our two dogs and we could instantly tell she's a dog lover. She was a considerate house sitter and everything was clean and tidy following her stay. The dogs were super happy and we had loads of video and photo updates. We would not hesitate in booking Tannia again and in fact she's doing a longer house sit for us in a few weeks. "

"Cass did a great job of looking after our two cats. She sent us regular updates and photos of them, which was nice. The cats seemed relaxed and happy when we got home. Our cats have specialist diets and we were confident she had followed our instructions well. When we got back, we found the house in great shape."

"Bethany was a perfect match for my springer spaniel Dougal. We found her to be courteous, warm and friendly. She was punctual to our Meet and Greet and on the day when she came to our home to be with Dougal. She showed skill in building rapport with him and left our home in impeccable shape. I would strongly recommend Bethany to anyone with a precious pet in the lives and we look forward to having her look after Dougal again "

"Cintia is a fantastic pet sitter. I have a very special needs pooch who is 14 years old, deaf and blind and Cintia took great care of her - they just loved each other! And I was able to go away without worrying about anything. She did everything I asked her to do (gave her a very long list!). She was highly considerate and respectful of my home environment as well as taking care of Jazz just the way I would. And had no trouble giving her medications daily. I would not hesitate to book her again and again! Plus she's a delightful person and so easy to deal with. "

"As a professional dog walker and minder myself I'm very cautious about who I allow to look after my own dog Willow. I'm very happy with the care Farida and Artur provided. Good communication and they left the house clean and tidy upon my return. I will happily recommend and book them again myself in the future. "

"Celeste is the best! Our dog, Penny, always has the best time with Celeste, as is evident by the photos Celeste shares where Penny is invariably either a) snuggled up next to Celeste all cosy and sleepy, or b) smiling so happily out on a walk or in the garden. My wife and I never have to stress when Celeste is dog sitting."

"Adam took great care of our dog Dot and home for 2 1/2 weeks. We could go away assured that everything would be cared for. Adam is a very reponsible young man, who has great skills with animals. Hopefully he doesn't get too popular as we want to keep him all for ourselves. "

"Shona is extremely reliable who has extensive knowledge of what each of my pets required. (Energetic puppy aged 4 mths and 17 yr old cat). She went above and beyond for their care and looked after our house whilst we were away. She was consistent with her communication via texts, photos and video footage and she was so thorough and accurate we were able to have a relaxing getaway knowing everything was taken care of back home. I can not thank Shona enough for her genuine care, hard work and loving nature towards our pets. I fully recommend Shona for any family needing pet care and house sitting. Thanks Shona for all of your hard work and support and we will definitely contact you again hopefully in the near future."

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.
