Certified dog aunty & cat lady — sitting, walks & day care1.1 km

"Antonia was an absolutely amazing dog sitter for our senior greyhound. He can be anxious with new people but Antonia formed a really sweet bond with him very quickly and he was up on the sofa with her every night (which is the true sign of a friend for life with him)!
She was really diligent with his routine and he thrived with her care. I really appreciated the daily updates and she was very responsive and open.
I’d 100% recommend Antonia to anyone looking for a caring and trustworthy pet sitter. "

"Poly and her partner Cainã were genuinely the best catsitters we had for our babies Dusk and Marcel. Poly sent us daily updates with pictures, and worked out how to manage to quirks of each cat's personality. Poly was thoughtful and eager to make sure our trip away had minimal impact on our fur babies, and went to great lengths to make sure they were happy, fed, played with and taken care of. When uncertain about one of their behaviours (tuxedo cats are going to always have the sass to match their outfit) she was prompt to reach out to inquire if there was more she could do or if she was overlooking something in his routine which meant such a great deal to us that she was so dedicated to Marcel's care. On top of this, Poly and Cainã left the house in stunning condition (and we are ashamed to admit but far better state than we left it in!). The kitchen looked profesionally cleaned, all the bins had been emptied and taken care of, and the place had been thoroughly vaccumed (all things we did not ask them to do!). The few instructions we left for the final day were meticulously followed, and they handed back over to use seamlessly. Overall, we will 100% be delighted to have Poly and Cainã take care of our babies again, and cannot recommend them highly enough!"

"I couldn’t have asked for better people to look after Miyu while I was away!
Chintia and Jeff were so warm, thoughtful and caring, and it was obvious from the regular updates and photos that Miyu felt safe, settled and loved. Coming home to a happy, relaxed dog gave me so much peace of mind.
Miyu can be an anxious pup and take a little while to warm to new people, but she clicked with Chintia and Jeff from the first meet, I was shocked! Miyu seemed more disappointed than excited when I arrived home, it was obvious she enjoyed herself with you guys 😆
Thank you both for taking such wonderful care of her.
I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend you to anyone looking for caring, trustworthy pet sitters."

"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!"

"Michelle is world class. This was my first time using a pet sitter and it was for 6 weeks so me and my partner were naturally super nervous, Michelle put our minds at ease so quickly!!
She was fabulous at looking after our cats and ensured she met all their individual needs.
The communication was great and she was always quick to reply.
In addition to being incredible at looking after the little cats, Michelle left our house super clean. She looked after our place with such care. This was a lovely treat after a long day of travelling home.
Honestly could not thank Michelle enough and will be 100% booking again for any future trips! "

"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 🖤"

"We honestly could not have asked for a better catsitter than Ghawady. From the moment we met her, you could tell she is a true animal person. She was so kind, calm and genuinely loving with our fur babies.
She took incredible care of them and went above and beyond with updates. We received so many photos and videos while we were away, which gave us complete peace of mind. It was so reassuring seeing how happy and relaxed our cats were in her care.
She also left our home spotless and treated it with so much respect, which we really appreciated.
The funniest part is that when we got home, our cats barely cared we were back. They genuinely seemed to miss their catsitter, which says everything.
We would happily have Ghawady back anytime and cannot recommend her highly enough. 💛🐾"

"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. "

"Vanessa stayed at my house and took fabulous care of my two dogs for an extended time . They were clearly loved and looked after. Which is exactly what as a devoted dog owner you hope for. One of the dogs was recovering from unexpected major surgery do required more attention with medication and lead walks. This dog can be nervous , so Vanessa did a great job of making her feel secure. Vanessa frequently sent photos of the dogs and ask timely and relevant questions about some aspects of care, which were so appreciated. Vanessa was always keen to know each dogs specific needs and l came home to two happy dogs! Thank you Vanessa 😀"

"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."

"I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter than Gerardine! She was incredible with our very shy cat. She had our cat warming up to her in record time, you can tell she’s such a cat person and the daily updates/photos put us at ease straight away.
We came back to a very tidy and clean house, she even left us a framed picture of Alaska, which was such a special gift!
I highly recommend her if you’re looking for a 10/10 cat sitter. Thanks again G ❤️"

"I recently had the pleasure of leaving my dog, Moose, in Ignacio's care for three nights, and I couldn't be happier with the experience. From the very first conversation, Ignacio was extremely professional, and his communication was excellent. Like any dog owner, I was a little anxious about leaving Moose with someone new, but as soon as we met Ignacio, I knew he was the perfect fit for the job.
Ignacio and his partner, Maria, are a wonderful couple, and they truly went above and beyond. Ignacio sent regular updates, including pictures and videos of Moose at the dog park, which put my mind at ease. It was clear Moose was having a great time and felt right at home, almost as if he was having a fun sleepover with friends rather than just waiting for me to come back.
When I returned, my house was left in perfect condition, and I could tell Moose had been well cared for. If I could give 6 out of 5 stars, I absolutely would! I highly recommend Ignacio and Maria to anyone looking for responsible and caring pet sitters."

Georgia was absolutely amazing! She stepped in to look after my dog and cat super last minute and I honestly couldn’t have asked for anyone better. She was incredibly friendly, reliable and sent me regular updates and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away.
Both of my pets absolutely LOVED her, I’m pretty sure they were disappointed when I came home because they wanted Georgia to stay forever! 😂
I wouldn’t hesitate to book Georgia again and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, caring and brilliant with animals. Thank you so much, Georgia! 🐾"

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 Southbank 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 Southbank 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 Southbank 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.
