Top cities for house sitting in Australia

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 Lilydale 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 Lilydale 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 Lilydale 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.

Hello Everyone! My name is Alex and I love animals! I grew up with a dog named Harry and hemrit crabs hahah! Our family now has a pet named Teddy :) He is a Bichon Frise and gets along with both dogs and people. We want Teddy to have a play friend and also have more cutness in our home. Speaking of our home it is fenced and quite large both inside and outside. Teddy mostly is an inside dog but Teddy and guest pets can also do a walk around outside. We have experience in taking after pets from friends pets and other pets outside of Pawshake. My parents often take Teddy to the beach on Sundays and if you are open to it we can also take another doggy with Teddy and provide pictures. In terms of what I expect from pets
Dogs only: At this stage dogs only as Teddy despite showing no signs of agression has still not interacted with other animals besides dogs and don't see the point in taking the risk.
Size: Small dogs only at this stage.&nbsp;
Temperment: Friendly dogs only. We are fine with the dogs being slow, old and quiet or young and more energetic but the pet needs to be friendly. May request to meet up beforehand. More than happy to drive to an area to see how a potential new member of the family behaves.&nbsp;
Quantity: At this stage just one pet at a time. What you can expect from myself and the family: Teddy and a member of the family at home: If I am not at home Monday to Friday my mum will be. Very rarely there is just Teddy. On the Weekends there is always someone at home and I will make sure that any pet is very loved :)Lots of hugs and kisses :)
Walks: Mum usually does the walking and I usually do the running. Dependisng on the health, age and temperment of the pet we can do either.Food: We expect bed and food to be provided however we often cook Teddy fresh chicken. If this is something you want as well in addition to the food provided to us let us know.&nbsp;
Safe: As mentioned above we have a fenced house&nbsp;
Toys: We have dog toys but open to having new toys provided to us to make any pet feel more welcome.
Sleep: Pet will be sleeping in my bed or in a dog bed. Whatever the pet prefers.&nbsp;


Hi, I’m Joseph, a recent graduate from the University of Melbourne. I’m currently available for about a month and would love to help with pet sitting if you need someone reliable and caring.

I have quite a bit of experience with dogs both in Australia and China. In Melbourne, I’ve looked after several dogs for friends, including the two I’m currently caring for — a Japanese Spitz and a Dachshund. Back in China, I raised a Maltese, so I’m very familiar with daily care, feeding, grooming, and understanding different dog personalities and needs.

Your dog can stay at my place. I live in a spacious house with a backyard, so there’s plenty of room for them to move around and relax. My friend and I both have experience with dogs, and there will always be someone around to keep them company, so they won’t feel lonely.

I always try to keep dogs on their usual routine to help them feel comfortable — regular feeding, daily walks, playtime, and lots of attention. We also have a car, so we can take them to parks for exercise. I take safety seriously, and if anything unusual happens, I’ll contact you and a vet straight away. I only accept vaccinated pets to make sure everything stays safe.

I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and will treat your dog like part of our family.


Hi, I’m Taylah! I’m a reliable and caring pet sitter who treats every animal as if they were my own. I’m usually available&nbsp;mornings, afternoons, and evenings, with flexible availability during weekdays and weekends depending on bookings.
About my services
I offer&nbsp;pet sitting and house sitting in the owner’s home, home visits, dog walking, and overnight stays. My goal is to keep your pets comfortable in their familiar environment while maintaining your home to a high standard.
I’m happy to&nbsp;administer oral medication&nbsp;and follow any special care routines your pet requires. While I don’t offer professional grooming or training, I’m comfortable with basic care such as brushing, feeding routines, and reinforcing simple commands you already use.
Home visits
During home visits, I typically stay&nbsp;30–60 minutes, depending on your pet’s needs. Visits include feeding, fresh water, litter tray or yard clean-ups, playtime, cuddles, and wellbeing checks. I can also&nbsp;water plants, bring in mail, and do basic home checks&nbsp;for your peace of mind.
Dog walking
My dog walks usually last&nbsp;30–60 minutes. I tailor walks to your dog’s age, energy level, and routine. Walks take place in&nbsp;local neighbourhood streets, parks, or familiar routes&nbsp;your dog is comfortable with, ensuring safety and enjoyment.
House sitting
For house sitting, I can stay&nbsp;overnight and for extended periods, ensuring your pets are never left alone for long. I maintain normal routines, keep your home secure by locking doors and windows, bringing in mail, and making the house look lived-in. I respect your space and always leave your home clean and tidy.
I’m passionate about creating a calm, loving, and trustworthy experience for both pets and owners, and I’m always happy to follow detailed instructions to make sure your pets feel safe and happy while you’re away.

* Prices Negotiable *
Professional belly rub provider, enthusiastic treat distributor, and long time master of saying “who’s a good boy?” Your pets will feel right at home and will almost certainly decide I am their favourite human in no time.
I grew up in what can only be described as a mini zoo, where animals were part of everyday life rather than just pets. From birds and chickens to mice, rabbits, bees, fish, dogs, cats, and even goats, there was always an animal nearby. If it existed, I probably shared a snack with it, helped care for it, or gave it a comfortable place to rest. Growing up surrounded by so many different animals taught me patience, awareness, and how to understand each animal’s unique personality and needs.
Because of this upbringing, caring for animals feels completely natural to me. I know that every pet has their own routine, preferences, and comfort levels, and I take pride in making sure they feel safe, relaxed, and genuinely cared for while you are away. For me, looking after pets is not just about feeding and walks, but about creating a calm, loving environment where they feel happy, understood, and at ease.


I have an extensive history of petsitting and have many glowing reviews I can provide upon request (more than 8 years). I also have a facebook and Instagram page with photos of my times spent with other beautiful pets.
In my petsitting service I will stay at your home and bring my own food. I have In the mornings and afternoons I will take your pets for a walk, allowing them to exercise and do their business. If its possible, I would like to sleep with then.I am a very affectionate person and will give your pet lots of love and attention. If i ever have something to do during the day, i will always return in the evening. (Actually I'm working 9am to 4pm but not everyday)In the night I never go out.
I will regularly and at request send photos and videos of your pets.I can only petsit in the pets' house, I don't have space in my house.
Please don’t hesitate to ask me any question!



Hi, I’m Kane! I’ve always had a strong connection with animals, and I know how important it is for them to feel safe and comfortable when their owners are away. That’s why I focus on caring for pets in their own homes — so they can stay in a familiar environment with their usual routines, smells, and comforts.

I grew up surrounded by dogs and cats and have many years of experience looking after pets for family and friends. From lively pups that love long walks and playtime, to senior cats that need a little extra patience and care, I truly enjoy spending time with animals of all ages and temperaments.

My motivation to become a pet sitter comes from my love for animals and my desire to give owners peace of mind. I know leaving pets behind can feel stressful, so I make it my mission to ensure they receive the same love, attention, and care I’d give my own.

I’m reliable, responsible, and dedicated to keeping pets happy, healthy, and loved while you’re away — whether that’s feeding, walking, playtime, or simply keeping them company.


Hi, we’re James and Josie 

We’ve just returned home to the UK after travelling and are excited to continue our journey as dedicated pet sitters. We’re caring, compassionate, trustworthy, and experienced; we’ll treat your pets with the same love, respect, and affection as if they were our own (they’re royalty, after all ).

We both hold full UK driving licences and have a spacious car should transport ever be required. We’re confident in administering all types of medication and have plenty of hands-on experience caring for animals with different needs.

I (James) have loved animals from a young age, I even managed to persuade my parents to let me get a dog, and that’s where it all began! Since then, I’ve worked with several dog walking and pet sitting companies in England, as well as running my own small business alongside my full-time job. Now that I have more time to dedicate, I couldn’t be happier to be back doing what I love most: caring for animals.

I (Josie) grew up surrounded by pets: cats, horses, guinea pigs, and fish; and I’ve always been passionate about looking after them. I also volunteered at a horse yard that offered therapeutic riding for disabled children, which was such a rewarding experience. But at the heart of it all, I just love animals (especially cats ).

If you’d like to know more about us or our services, please don’t hesitate to get in touch. We’d love to meet you and your furry (or not-so-furry) family members soon!

James &amp; Josephine
(a.k.a The Animal Whisperers)

Hi there! We're Jasmine and Gray, a Taiwanese couple passionate about pets. Just like you, we've got furry companions back home, so we totally understand how important your pets are to you. With years of pet-sitting experience, our place in my hometown has become a go-to for friends and family to board their pets when they're away. Gray's even taken our dog on overseas adventures!&nbsp;Since moving to Australia, we've missed having a furry companion around. We've always had dogs in our lives and loved the unconditional love they give. We're excited to share that love with other pets and their owners. Pet sitting is the perfect way for us to combine our passion for animals with our new life in Australia.While we're currently renting, we're more than happy to come to your place to look after your furry family members, or take them for a walk. We can provide a tailored care plan to ensure your pets are happy and safe. Whether it's feeding, playing, or simply keeping them company, we're here to help!Trust us to give your pets the love and attention they deserve.

Hi! My name is Laura, and one of the things that brings me the most happiness is being around animals. I have always naturally connected with pets and genuinely enjoy the comfort, joy, and companionship they bring. Since moving to Australia, being away from my family has taught me how important connection and care are, and animals have often been a source of comfort, happiness, and calm in my life.
My motivation to become a pet sitter comes from a genuine love for animals and the desire to help pet owners feel reassured when they are away from their furry family members. I understand that leaving a pet in someone else’s care can feel stressful because pets are family, each with their own routines, personalities, and little quirks. I want owners to feel confident that their pets are not only being looked after, but also receiving kindness, patience, affection, and attention.
I am a caring, responsible, and attentive person who enjoys spending quality time with animals, whether that means going on walks, playing, keeping them company, sticking to feeding routines, or simply sitting quietly with them if they prefer calm company. I understand that every pet is different: some are energetic and playful, while others just want reassurance and cuddles.
Coming from a hospitality background, I naturally care about creating positive experiences, being dependable, and paying attention to details. I believe communication and trust are incredibly important, so I would always make sure to keep you updated and provide peace of mind while you are away.
For me, pet sitting is more than just a job — it is spending time doing something I truly enjoy while helping pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved in their own environment. I would care for your pet with the same patience, warmth, and attention I would hope someone would show my own.
