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 Essendon North VIC that can help?”.

Luckily, with Pawshake, you can easily find local and trusted pet and dog carers from Essendon North VIC 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 Essendon North VIC. 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 Essendon North VIC. 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 Essendon North VIC.

Hi there! I’m Karolina, a big animal lover who absolutely adores spending time with dogs and cats of all kinds.&nbsp;
I have experience walking and looking after dogs of all breeds and sizes, from tiny playful pups to big gentle giants. I always make sure each walk or visit fits their energy and personality, whether that’s a fun adventure outside or some quiet cuddle time at home.
I also take care of cats, and other pet family members if necessary.  I treat every pet like my own - with love, patience, and lots of attention.&nbsp;
You can count on me to keep your furry friend happy, active, and cared for while you’re away. If you have any questions or special requests please feel free to contact me.&nbsp;
I'm also happy to show my other review of house and dogs/ cat sitting.
Can’t wait to meet your four-legged best friend! 

About Us
We are passionate pet lovers with years of hands-on experience caring for dogs, including larger breeds such as Chow Chows, Rottweilers, Siberian Huskies, German Shepherds, American Terriers, and Labradors, as well as cats and small animals. We deeply value the companionship pets bring and are committed to ensuring every pet under our care feels safe, loved, and happy.
Since we both work from home, your pet will always have company while staying with us. We provide constant care and tailor our approach to meet your pet’s unique needs. Whether it’s an energetic dog that enjoys regular walks and engaging playtime or a more relaxed pet that prefers lounging and napping, we make sure they feel at ease. Your furry friend can choose between relaxing indoors or enjoying our secure outdoor space, which is perfect for safely roaming, sniffing, and playing fetch or ball.

Our Space
We are conveniently located near Melbourne Airport, making it easy for pet owners to drop off or pick up their furry companions before or after flying overseas. Our pet-friendly home features a secure, fully enclosed outdoor area with a grass patch for your pet’s comfort.
Currently, we do not have any pets of our own, meaning your pet will have our undivided attention and enjoy the entire space to themselves. We maintain a clean, safe, and comfortable environment, ensuring your pet has a relaxing and enjoyable stay—whether indoors or exploring the spacious outdoor area.

If you’re looking for a dependable and caring pet sitter who will treat your furry family members like their own, we’d be honored to help. Please don’t hesitate to reach out—we’d love to hear about your pets and look forward to meeting them soon!&nbsp;


Hello! I'm Eleanor.&nbsp;
I’m a proud cat mum to the one and only Mavis, and a lifelong animal lover who grew up surrounded by all kinds of creatures—dogs, cats, horses, chickens, guinea fowl… you name it, I’ve probably fed it or cuddled it!
While I’m new to official pet sitting, I’ve long been known as “Fun Aunty Ellie” among my friends. I’m their go-to when they’re away (or often when they're not!), whether it’s for belly rubs, dinner time, or energetic mid-day walks. I’m comfortable with animals of all shapes, sizes, and personalities—from sassy cats to anxious pups—and I tailor my care to suit their unique quirks. I've also long-term fostered rescued greyhounds and kittens.
I’m currently not working, so I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to dedicate to your furry friend. I’m based in Coburg and happily cover Melbourne’s inner north. I’d love to meet you and your pet. Let’s chat! 





Hi my name is Elise (35). I've had large dogs all my life and I have 8 years experience pet sitting (your home or mine) and walking dogs. I offer other related services such as pet taxi, pet concierge etc. I own a reliable car and am licensed, should your pet need to be taken to the Vet. I have completed the online RSPCA Accredited training course and I am police checked,  and insured through [link hidden] work part time in retail at Highpoint and Essendon DFO so I have flexibility in taking week and/or weekend bookings.
I am comfortable with dogs of any size and have a German shepherd female myself who is very well behaved and friendly.
My home has a secure 2.5m high fence with plenty of sunny and shady areas to play in, along with lots of toys to help stimulate your pets.
However I don't have an outdoor enclosure for cats so I can only look after them inside my house.&nbsp;
I am also happy to house sit at your own home, if preferred.&nbsp;
I have previously volunteered with North Melbourne's Lost Dogs Home which has been great for learning all sorts of great techniques dealing with dogs of all temperaments and various health issues.&nbsp;
Please get in contact with me if you require any of these services :)
Thanks,&nbsp;
Elise


About me:
I'm 22 years old and I am in my 5th year of studying a bachelor of Law and Arts. I also work as the Quality Manager for a private RTO called 4 Up Skilling where I work from home one day a week. I regularly compete in showjumping on the weekends and have 5 competition warmblood horses of my own. I grew up on a family sheep and cattle farm 2 hours north of Melbourne. We had a range of different pets: cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, and dogs (including Kelpies, Labradors and Whippets). I own two whippets called Lilly and Hector who live with me in Melbourne. I love animals and thought pet sitting would be a fantastic job to help me through my final years at uni doing what I love. 

Experience: 
My mum was a vet nurse and growing up I volunteered at the vet clinic where she worked in Avenel, Vic. This included helping administer medications, cleaning pet beds, feeding and watering the animals, and walking/exercising the dogs. I also have experience with rabbits and guinea pigs as I owned these pets growing up, which taught me early on of the responsibility of owning an animal. As mentioned above I also have spent the first 20 years of my life on a farm and have experience in managing a range of different animals. I have also dog sat two of my friends dogs before on the days that I have worked from home, Kevin the Labrador and Margot the Labradoodle. 

Services: 
I offer dog walking and home visit services in the Maidstone, Footscray, Ascot Vale, Maribyrnong, and Sunshine areas. I can come to you, or you can drop off your pet to be walked around Maidstone.&nbsp;I am 10 minutes walk away from the Maribyrnong river and offer walk my two whippets along there. There is also an off leash dog park near me where I could walk your dog. I can walk your dog for between 30-40 minutes depending on what they need. For home visits, I would be there for 30-40 minutes and can water and feed you pet, let it outside to toilet, or spend time playing with them. I can also walk your dog as an add on. I will be offering these services on a Monday and Wednesday most weeks, the times will differ to work around my university schedule. I may also offer in the future a daycare service on Tuesdays as I work from home. I may only be out of the house for 30 minutes at a time to run errands. I have a fully fenced back years with grass the services my two dogs wonderfully. The inside of the house is tidy, with little for your dogs to chew or get into. Please keep in mind that your dog would have to be friendly with my two whippets, mine are a year old and two years old and are good with other dogs, but keep in mind their size and the fact they can be high energy at times. Please contact me if you are interested in this service. 


I am an animal lover and absolutely love dogs. I have looked after my own dogs for the last 40 years or so, from Border Collies to Pomeranians. Whilst I don't own a dog at present, is all more reason I want to take care of your dog. Spending time with dogs is the best. I get to exercise and be spoilt by their presence.
In fact, I would prefer dogs over humans any day. Only dog people would understand that statement. Dogs make the best companions and their loyalty is second to none. 
Ideally, I would love to walk dogs. I could also doggy sit them at their home when their owner is away at work, or they’ve gone out for whatever reason. Depending on the dog, I may even be able to doggy sit them at my place. Your dog would be loved and cared for as if they were my own. They will be in very safe hands.

Hey there! 
I am Hannes, 28 years old from Germany. I am an easygoing, open minded guy, who loves life and dogs!
Back home my family had a female Rottweiler (Leyla) and a male German Shepherd (Aaron). I spend almost everyday with them and saw them growing up. We were living close to a lake, so i often went there to have a bath with them or went to the nearby forest to throw some sticks. That's what they loved the most. The Rottweiler was special, when it comes to meeting other dogs, so I know how to handle those kind of situations. 
After 8 years of having lived with dogs in our family, i moved overseas by myself and would love to spend some time with dogs again, no matter what race it is, no matter on how i should spend the days with the doggo! I am very flexible about time and location, just leave a message :)

Looking forward to meet you! 

Hi There,
My name is Julia and I have my own little Zoo, Daisy (dog) and my cats Cosmo and Taco.
I have grown up around animals my entire life including small- large breed dogs and many varying cat personalities!&nbsp;
I am experienced with walking large dogs and have trained my own girl to walk calmly and well on a leash with no pulling. I am also comfortable with large/ overly excitable dogs and am consistent with training so can maintain your routines.&nbsp;
I focus on enrichment to ensure my dog is happy, healthy and fulfilled and ensure a sniff filled walk which will give your pet an opportunity to explore the outside world (whilst on-leash).&nbsp;
I have experience with cat sitting for various friends and family members and am confident in my ability to handle what can be a nervous situation for many animals.&nbsp;
Services
Can walk 2-3 dogs together, can handle a "pulling" dog.&nbsp;
My dog has hearing impairment, I can communicate and understand deaf dogs very well. 
Confident in following pet medication instructions.&nbsp;
Will provide lots of photos and daily updates when checking in for home visits, as well as cuddles and play for your fur babies!&nbsp;
I am also comfortable and experienced with sphynx cats and older dogs.&nbsp;
Happy to provide a meet &amp; greet before as well to ensure your confidence and my compatability with you pets.&nbsp;
Hope to hear from you soon.

Hey there friends! 
My name is Samya and I am an avid dog lover. I have my little pug Timmy who is soon to be 13 and I adore. We have grown up together (I got him when I was 7) and I can't imagine a life without him. Timmy and I love spending our time together going on little doggy walks.
One of my favourite activities is dog walking. I think I like the walk more than the doggy does.. I enjoy dog walking as it's enrichment for both your furry friend and I! 
I have also previously worked at a pet store for quite some time. I learnt all about different breeds and their needs, so I've got some knowledge behind me.
I'm affordable, energetic, experienced, friendly and careful with all dogs. I've walked dogs of most sizes. What more could you want!! 
Please let me know of any concerns or queries, I am a fast responder and excited to meet your furball of love!!
Be prepared for me to want to visit your pup everyday. I get separation anxiety from them
