"Carissa was just wonderful. She went above and beyond to make sure our baby was loved and cared for during the two weeks we were away. Carissa sent us daily updates and photos, she took Poppy on lovely outings and kept her routine to make sure she was happy and comfortable. Poppy loved her time with her new friend 😊 We can never thank Carissa enough! "

"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."

Lives with 2 cats
"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. "

"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."

"I would highly recommend Bree-Anna to house sit and look after your animals.
She house sit for me for 3 weeks looking after 3 cats, the anxious cat took to her straight away, when we got back all cats were all very relaxed, and did not even seem to be upset that we left them.
Not only were the cats very happy but Bree-Anna also took very good care of the house. Communicated with us all the time, before she started house sitting and while she was house sitting gave us regular updates on how the cats are doing with photos.
Thank you Bree-Anna for taking such good care of the cats, i will definitely book you again. "

"Kirsten is a dog lover and treated our fur baby with utmost attention and care. She followed all our requests regarding our dog's schedule, habits and understood her nature well so as to make sure her needs are fully met while we are away. She sent us regular photo updates and messages as well.
Kirsten is a great pet sitter, and it's a bonus that she's a great house sitter too. Our home was well kept, clean and very tidy as we had left it.
We would definitely recommend Kirsten to anyone seeking a trusting, mature dog handler and carer.

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 Highett 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 Highett 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 Highett 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.
