"Gabby was easy to communicate with and very friendly from start to finish. We were very comfortable leaving her in charge of our house and 6yo Greyhound for 17 nights when we went on holidays. Gabby sent regular messages and photos which showed that our dog was in good hands and comfortable with his dog sitter. When we arrived home both house and dog were in perfect condition. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Gabby's services to my friends and family. "

"Alzeena stayed at our house and looked after our puppy and cat while we were away for 5 days. She was a great communicator and sent photo updates to let us know how they were going. When we arrived home, the house was in a great state and our pets were super happy. Will definitely use Alzeena again next time we go away!"

"We booked Alicia just two days before our trip when our original pet sitter cancelled. We have a very ill, complicated senior cat, and Alicia was absolutely wonderful with her and our dog, Buddy. She confidently handled all of our cat’s medication needs and even took her to the vet twice a week. Her communication was amazing, and we were able to relax on our trip thanks to her. We came home to a stable, well-cared-for cat and a happy dog. We’re so grateful for the care Alicia provided!"

"We booked Alvina very last minute as our original cat sitter had to cancel, so we were very hesitant going forward, but Alvina exceeded our expectations!
She understood the needs of the cats, both of whom were senior and was very proactive with asking any questions.
She kept us updated every single day, twice a day, with long, informative messages, and plenty of photos. Couldn’t be happier and we would without hesitation use her again, or recommend her to anyone! Alvina is the BEST!"

"Antonia was amazing with our babies.
She stayed at our place and looked after our 2 dogs and a cat for over 2 weeks while we were away.
Couldn't fault her! We regularly received updates and she checked in all the time. Our babies loved her!
Would highly recommend and would use her again :)

"Vy was an absolute lifesaver—she accepted our booking with less than 12 hours’ notice after our original sitter, Madeleine, let us down. Madeleine overfed the pets, kept the dog locked in, arrived late, and abandoned them the second night after I asked her to let the dog out (locked for over 20 hours). Motion sensors and cameras (she was informed in writing) confirmed she lied about doing it, then canceled and left our pets alone for 24 hours! It was the most distressing time! Stuck in Fiji with limited internet connection and no family support in Melbourne, I honestly hope no one has to go through this!!
Pawshake immediately cancelled Madeleine Oruba.
Thankfully, I found Vy through old messages, and she stepped in instantly! She cared for our senior pets, gave them medication, kept us updated with photos, and flagged issues like peeing on rugs, vomiting and food shortages. The previous sitter had used 8+ tins of cat food in just two days!
Vy is reliable, honest, and an excellent communicator. We’re incredibly grateful she was there when we needed her most. Thank you Vy! "

"Alyce was a fantastic pet sitter. Right from our first interactions and subsequent meet & greet we were very comfortable that we had the right person in Alyce. She did a great job looking after our dog & cat, and was excellent with communication in both the lead up to and during the pet sitting at our house. Would highly recommend 🙂"

Exercise and play was important and taken care of every day. Communication was always pro active and our dogs (and house) were extremely well looked after.
