"Jess has been the first dog sitter we have used on Pawshake and it has been a really positive experience. Jess was very accomodating with some changes that we needed to make and the dogs really loved her. Will definitely rebook with Jess in the future, and highly recommend her pet sitting services. Thankyou Jess."

"Loes is definitely the best cat carer in Canberra! Using her knowledge and skills she met my shy and anxious cat, Belle, with a soft, gentle, reassuring and empathetic approach to build rapport, and within a short time had her feeling safe, comfortable and relaxed in her care. She provided Belle with all the care and attention she needed, including stimulation and enrichment to help counter the boredom and loneliness whilst I was away. She changed up her toys, set up different activities and environments using available resources, played with her, and even put on classical music for Belle during her visits to soothe her and provide additional stimulation. The updates and pictures I received of Belle and her latest activities were welcome snapshots, that allowed me to stay connected, and showed the wonderful care she was receiving. It felt as though Loes cared as much about Belle as I do and I would definitely recommend her services. It is such a relief for me to know that she is available to look after Belle as I know she will make every effort to make her happy when I am away. "

"Jenny recently did daily home visits to care for our elderly cat, a chicken and fish. All were very well looked after, with particular feeding needs met. Jenny also watered our numerous pot plants, and all were in great condition on our return. Jenny stayed long enough on each home visit to let our chicken out for a run, and sent us daily reports to keep us up to date on the well-being of all, giving us peace of mind while we were away. This was particularly reassuring in regard to our cat (who can be quite anti-social when we're not there), showing us he was eating and drinking, and comfortable. Jenny was a very reliable and friendly communicator, and very diligent and thorough in the care of our dear cat, chicken, fish and plants. We highly recommend Jenny’s care. "

"Jules is a caring and attentive pet sitter who took great care of my two 🐈 cats 🐈 through daily home visits while I was away. She fed the cats, changed their litter, watered plants and played with them, and sent photos and updates. The cats were very relaxed when I returned—always a good sign. I would thoroughly recommend Jules as a cat sitter."

Why pet sitting ?

When you have to go away or work long hours, you may worry about leaving your pet home alone. Have you ever wondered “Is there a pet or dog sitter in Canberra ACT that can help?”.

Luckily, with Pawshake, you can easily find local and trusted pet and dog carers from Canberra ACT to provide drop in visits and other services. This means a pet sitter will come and visit your pet at a time you both agree on and provide lots of love and personal attention. This can include playtime in the backyard, a walk to the local park, or just some cuddle time. Our pet carers can also administer medication, give food, and refresh the water bowl.

In home pet sitting services are a great way to break up the day and enrich it for your pet. Pawshake pet sitters have extensive experience caring for a range of pets including dogs, cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, birds and more. If you have multiple pets, home visits are a great option to ensure that they all get a visit and lots of attention during the day.

Drop in visits are the least stressful option for your pet because your pet can stay in their favourite environment – their own home in Canberra ACT. Their surroundings will be familiar and our loving and passionate Pawshake sitter will spoil them each day. Our sitters will treat your home with respect and are flexible with timing, requests and durations. All this can be discussed before you make a home visit booking.

Pet boarding is a great option for when you are away for a few days and your pet needs overnight care. Unlike pet hotels, Pawshake pet boarding allows you to arrange a personalised daily routine for your pet, whether this be extra belly rubs, playtime or 24 hour supervision. Your pet will stay with the pet sitter in a cosy home environment, rather than a large, impersonal pet hotel.

So whether you need just one day, a week or even a month, you’ll be able to find an experienced pet or dog carer to accommodate you and your pet’s needs in Canberra ACT. The best part is that your Pawshake pet sitter is from your local neighbourhood, so they will be familiar with the area.

Our pet carers also have a range of experiences which include puppies, seniors, nervous pets and dog training. So if your pet has special requirements, you’ll be sure to find a pet sitter that is a good match for you.

Your pet’s safety and welfare is a big priority for us, which is why all of our Pawshake pet sitters undergo a strict vetting process by our trust and safety team. At Pawshake, we understand that you might feel a little uneasy allowing a pet sitter to enter your home or arranging pet boarding at their place. This is why Pawshake pet sitters also have reviews from other pet parents that are publicly available on their profile for you to read.

Each pet sitting home visit and pet boarding booking made through Pawshake is covered by the Pawshake Guarantee, which includes veterinary coverage, customer support 7 days a week and more. Rest easy knowing that your pets will be well looked after by one of our expert pet carers in Canberra ACT.
