"Aanchal did a great job house sitting and caring for our dog and cat. She sent us regular updates each day from walks with Luna and kept us informed about how things were going. We recommend Aanchal, she is a lovely person and trusted house/pet 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. "

"I highly recommend Diana! Lucy, my cat received the care and attention she needed. We got multiple photos and updates and our house it was very well kept! In fact, it seemed cleaner when we returned, than the day we left for our trip. Diana is very trustworthy, friendly and reliable. Thank you so much Diana for your help! "

"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. "

"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 "

"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. "

"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. "

"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."

"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."

"An obvious cat lover who did a great job looking after our two fussy cats for ten days. They are normally quite shy around strangers but I came home to find them calm, happy and well fed. I highly recommend Lucas and would be happy to have him back any time."

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 Richmond 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 Richmond 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 Richmond 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.
