"
Anja was a reliable and friendly house sitter and took great care of our indoor cat and blue heeler. She followed medication and special dietary instructions for our dog and sent us a few photo and text updates as our kids were missing their pets. Anja left the house in a clean and tidy state and the animals were left clean and happy and their toileting areas were cleaned up. It was lovely to return home to. We highly recommend Anja for your house sitting or pet sitting needs."

"We felt absolutely comfortable leaving our two cats in Joe's hands (apart from missing them while we were gone!). Joe is reliable, punctual, conscientious and a warm and lovely person, and he has genuine animal expertise and good instincts. Regarding the home, I consider myself a bit obsessive when it comes to neatness and cleanliness: Joe left our flat spotless. The cats seemed stress-free and happy when we arrived home - Joe kept in touch regularly with photos of the relaxed felines in his company. We warmly recommend Joe for pet-sitting and house-minding."

"We recently had the pleasure of having Zoe look after our beloved Frenchie, and we couldn't be more thrilled with her. From the moment we met her, Zoe exuded professionalism, warmth, and a genuine love for animals, which immediately put us at ease.
During our time away, Zoe took impeccable care of both our house and our dog. We returned to a home that was just as we left it – tidy, secure, and well-maintained. More importantly, our dog was clearly happy, healthy, and incredibly well-cared for.
What truly set Zoe apart was her proactive communication. She regularly sent us delightful pictures and updates of our dog, which provided immense peace of mind. Knowing our furry family member was not only safe but also enjoying her time with Zoe allowed us to relax and fully enjoy our trip without any worries.
Zoe is reliable, trustworthy, and goes above beyond to ensure both pets and homes are given the best possible attention. We highly recommend her to anyone in need of a fantastic house and dog sitter. She's a true gem!"

"Sabrina was so easy to communicate with leading up to the sitting period, she came over and met our pup, and grabbed the keys a couple of days before. During the sit, she kept us updated about our pooch and left the house immaculate. We came home to a very happy puppy and a very tidy house. Absolutely would recommence Sabrina to anyone 🖤"

"Thank you Pedro for looking after Pika.
Pedro is a first class dog sitter - he is caring, communicative and took Pika for twice daily walks paying attention to his needs. Pedro uses his vet training and human intuition to really care for Pika’s well-being. He sent us reassuring messages and photos daily and responded quickly to all communication. I highly recommend Pedro for your pet’s care. We will definitely be calling on Pedro again. "

"Niamh did a fantastic job looking after our two West Highland Terriers, Dougie and Angus, and our Maine Coon cat, Apollo, while house sitting our apartment for six nights. She kept in touch throughout our trip with regular updates and photos, which gave us real peace of mind knowing everyone was happy and well looked after.
We came home to three very happy pets and an apartment that was spotless. She had vacuumed, cleaned everything beautifully and even washed her linen before she left, which was a lovely surprise.
I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Niamh to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter. Thanks again, Niamh. We really appreciate everything you did and we’ll definitely be booking you again for our next trip."

"Sam was a brilliant dog/house sitter and our dogs loved her. Our two young dogs are a challenge at the best of times but Sam took in her stride everything they threw her way, including steak stealing, escaping from Alcatraz and sneaky pees.
The house was spotless when we returned and I am not sure the dogs missed us at all. Her regular photo updates were priceless and gave us the reassurance we needed that everyone was OK.
I cannot recommend Sam highly enough and I am already trying to secure her services for Christmas."

"I’m super grateful for all of Ugne’s fantastic efforts in looking after my two cats for me while I was overseas for 4 weeks.
She is reliable, trustworthy, respectful, great at communicating and kept me in the loop with regular updates and photos of my much-missed fur babies.
Most importantly though, through her kindness and patience, she was able to establish a strong bond with my cats, which is no small feat considering how timid they can be due to their pasts (they are both rescue cats). My confidence in her care and knowing my cats were happy meant I was able to truly relax and enjoy my trip without worry.
The cherry on top was coming back home to a beautifully clean and tidy place with all the linen washed, dried and folded! I was very impressed.
Thank you so much Ugne, you’re welcome back anytime and I know Blankie and Misha are missing you dearly already! Much love Ria xx "

"Lily was a great choice. My dog (Zoe) is aged and has developed her own idiosyncratic behaviours. Lily listened to Zoe's needs and responded by providing the care required. Lily stayed at my house and treated it perfectly. I came home to a clean house, a well cared for and happy dog and even a welcome home gift. I will be using Lily again and highly recommend her. "

"Once again Danielle provided exceptional love and care for my two beautiful feline boys. I think she might be a cat whisperer as they clearly just moved straight into her care without a problem. She provided wonderful photos at least twice a day and updates on their behaviour and moods. She clearly cares for Sam and Dexter very much and I felt confident being away from them while she was looking out for them. She also left my house in immaculate order for which I am hugely grateful. Cannot recommend her highly enough. She is a true animal lover and a gem of a house sitter. No wonder she is in such high demand. Thank you Danielle !! "

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 South Yarra 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 South Yarra 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 South Yarra 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.
