"⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Outstanding care – beyond grateful!
We had the most wonderful experience with Karen, and I cannot recommend her highly enough. From start to finish, her care, professionalism, and genuine love for animals were evident in everything she did.
Karen looked after our girl, Lady, with so much warmth, patience, and attention that it truly felt like she was with family rather than a sitter. The peace of mind this gave us while we were away was priceless. Communication was great, and it was clear that Lady was comfortable, happy, and very well cared for at all times.
We returned home after 15 days of trip, and the house was absolutely immaculate — such a thoughtful and unexpected touch that meant the world to us after a long journey. It spoke volumes about Karen’s dedication and pride in the care she provides.
This was not just a service, but a genuinely heartfelt experience. We are incredibly grateful for Karen’s support, kindness, and the love she showed Lady. We will always be indebted to her and would not hesitate for a second to book her again.
If you are looking for someone trustworthy, compassionate, and exceptional at what they do — Karen is truly one of a kind. Highly, highly recommended! 🐾❤️"

"Samantha was again absolutely incredible as always. This time she house sat and cared for our elderly bird and lovely little old dog who was 10 days into her recovering from dental surgery. Samantha sent us great updates with photos & took such wonderful care of our home and bird and especially our little dog she made sure she had all her medications with food and on time as part of her medical care schedule we can tell our dog and bird really feel safe and enjoy Samanthas company very much. It is so important to us that our lovely dog and bird feel safe and enjoy their home comforts and company with a peaceful very skilled reliable person who genuinely cares so much for animals wellbeing and enjoys time connecting with them. Very thankful for Samantha and would highly recommend her care for your fur family. "

"Kevin was an absolute gem looking after our home and cats. Our cats dislike everyone however Kevin was able to become friends with our boy Beau which was awesome to hear. We were given a lot of updates which was perfect as this was our first time hiring a cat sitter. Thank you Kevin for caring for our weirdo cats! "

"Could not be happier with Nikoo's service house sitting and looking after my two senior dogs. After the meet and greet I was so comfortable to leave them in her care for 13 nights. I recieved daily updates and photos and Nikoo showed a high level of care for them, with plenty of love and daily walks. I will be using Nikoo's service in future and would highly recommend her to anyone. 🌻"

"Annthea is such a devoted dog sitter and Toby,our cavoodle, absolutely loved her. She genuinely adores animals, is punctual and communicates throughout the day with updates and photos, to ensure the owners are kept informed and reassured. She stayed over at our house and even was happy to water the garden for the week and left us with a scone snack and a personalized handwritten note upon our arrival home, after a weeklong road trip, which was a lovely surprise. She is honest & trustworthy, and we have no hesitation recommending Annthea to other pet owners "

"Chloe has been our pet sitter for the second time now and we are very grateful to have found her. It’s been a long time since we had a reliable pet sitter and Chloe has been wonderful with all three of our cats. June in particular never is comfortable with any outsiders, but she got along great with Chloe. Not just the cats, but our house was well looked after too!
Thank you for all the help and support, Chloe!"

"I reckon Jessica is the best pet sitter on here! I had to go away for 2 weeks over these holidays and was extremely nervous about leaving my beautiful golden retriever (who is super high maintenance, very emotionally dependant and recently had surgery) with someone, especially as Rufus spends every waking and sleeping moment with me.
Jessica is super intuitive, thoughtful and really treats your pet like her own. She sent me updated photos and videos all of the time, helped administer my dogs eye drops and medication (post-op eye surgery), took him for walks, cooked him dinner and most of all stayed with him almost the entire time. When she says that she'll do something, she does it. She also takes initiative and is very in-tune with your pets needs. For the very first time I could actually go away on holiday and didn't have to worry about Rufus the ENTIRE time.
5 stars! Thank you again for taking such good care of my boy, Rufus! :)"

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 Newtown 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 Newtown 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 Newtown 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.
