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 Highett VIC that can help?”.

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

I am a forever animal lover who has grown up surrounded by animals and would be delighted to care for your pets as if they were my own! Becoming a pet sitter feels like a natural way for me to combine my love for animals and wanting to help people out. I have 2 cats and 2 dogs of my own, so trust me when I say I am experienced with both the cuddles and the chaos!
I am patient, gentle, and attentive, and I always pay close attention to each pet’s unique personality and needs. My primary services would be dogwalking and pet visits, however I am open to housesitting and dogsitting if I have previous experience with your pets.
For the safety of all animals in my care, I will only accept vaccinated pets into my home. This helps ensure a healthy and stress-free environment for everyone.
I would be thrilled if you consider me as a new buddy for your little fuzzy friends! :)

Hi, my name is Evie!

I offer reliable dog walking with a very personal, hands-on approach, because I truly believe great walks are about more than just exercise. I take the time to understand each dog’s personality, energy level, and little quirks before we ever head out. Some dogs love an upbeat, purposeful walk, while others are happier taking things slow, stopping to sniff and soak up their surroundings—and I adjust every walk to suit them.
I’m especially mindful with nervous or reactive dogs, keeping walks calm and predictable so they feel safe and supported. For confident, energetic dogs, I provide structured walks that let them burn energy while staying focused and well-mannered.
Living locally in Cheltenham, I enjoy walking dogs around nearby streets, green spaces, and local dog parks they know and love. My goal is always the same: a happy, relaxed dog and total peace of mind for you.

My name is Claude and I'm 18 years old. I have a Cert I in Animal Care and about to complete my Cert II. I have my animal first aid certificate from the RSPCA. I started a small buisiness at 15 called Clawed's Pet Pampering and I have bathed, walked, daycared and petsat dogs and cats for three years. I have a full CV with many glowing references that I am happy to send you. I am currently training to be a dog groomer.&nbsp;
My family has four cats  (Anna, Audrey, Alice and Alfie) who I adore but I'm such a dog person I have to pat every single one I pass on the street, and point out each one I drive past.&nbsp;
I'm happy to look after dogs and gats who need grooming and will give them plenty of love and spoil them.
I can look after a marine aquarium and reptiles.&nbsp;&nbsp;
When staying over, I sleep in my sleeping back so I don't use your bedsheets.


Hi there! My name is Bridget, and I am an animal LOVER, with a special affinity for big dogs! I housesit for homes with both cats and dogs, and can care for multiple at a time.&nbsp;I've always grown up with medium to large sized rescue dogs in my family household, with Bull Arabs being a special favourite of mine. I have experience especially with elderly, sick and/or troubled animals who perhaps need that extra TLC. I currently have one Bull Arab doggie named "Eadie" who is very friendly and well trained (thanks to the power of treats!!).&nbsp;I am a university student, so I am available for long term house-sitting during my semester breaks. Additionally, I am open for house sitting during my semesters in households where I can come and go for my classes a few days a week. &nbsp;If your pet needs somebody who gives that above and beyond personalised care (and will always smother your fur baby with hugs and pats), I'm the best person to call! I can't imagine my life without our furry friends, so I'd be honoured to take care of some beloved animals. 


About Me:
I'm a passionate dog lover with five years of experience in dog minding. I strive to create a comfortable and enriching environment for every dog in my care. A year-long volunteer experience as a Seeing Eye Dog carer provided invaluable insight into dog behavior, training, and specific needs. This experience, coupled with owning my own friendly, released SED Lab Retriever, has given me a deep understanding of canine communication and individual personalities.
My Dog-Sitting Services:
I offer a safe and secure home environment for your beloved dog(s). I live with my 4 year old Lab Retriever girl Italy. My property features a fully fenced backyard, providing ample space for play and exercise. We are conveniently located near several dog parks and beaches, offering opportunities for fun outings and socialization (with your permission, of course). I am also happy to provide updates and photos of your dog during their stay, so you can have peace of mind while you're away.
Boarding Service includes: 45mins walk, twice per day. I can administer medication to pets and I offer training to pets  where possible. I work from home and would spent as much time as possible caring for your beloved pet. 
Your pet is allowed in most of the rooms in my house except bed rooms. 
Daycare Service includes: 30mins walk, once per day

I've been a lifelong animal lover and currently share my home with my two wonderful cats, Thea (the mum) and Harli (the daughter), who have been a cherished part of my family for the past eight years. This hands-on experience has given me a deep understanding of feline behaviour and their need for both playtime and quiet comfort.
Beyond my cats, I also grew up with a family dog, and it quickly became 'my' dog when it came to walks, feeding, and all the daily care, including the less glamorous but essential poop-scooping!

Cat Sitting: Daily visits for feeding, litter box cleaning, playtime, and plenty of cuddles. I'm happy to administer medication if needed and provide regular updates on your feline friend's well-being.

Over the past 4 years, I 've a Labrador dog back at my home country but now I'm missing my dog so I decided to take dog walker a part-time job so that I can spend some quality time with dogs and have some extra income as an international student much. I ensure you that your pet will receive the exercise, attention, and affection they need while their owners are away.
