"This was the second time Gerardine has looked after my cat while I'm away and I couldn't be happier with her as a sitter.
She sent updates every day with not only messages but multiple pictures. I am a worrier when I go away but her passion for animals and care for my cat shone though - I have never felt more comfortable leaving my cat in someone else's care.
If you're looking for a wonderful, attentive pet sitter look no further."

"Carolina helped me to take care my cat in early May, she is patient, reliable and has a great communication skills. While I was away, Carolina makes sure my cat has a good care, she sent my pics of my cat and communicated with me in a detailed way.
Carolina is also very flexible which is great for someone who is looking for an urgent care for their furry baby.
I strongly recommend Carolina and will book her next time 🙂🙂"

"Jia was an incredible cat sitter! She was so sweet, communicative and took the absolute best care of my cat. She sent me so many great videos and pictures so it felt like I wasn't gone at all. I can very happily and highly recommend Jia if you are looking for a reliable and caring friend to look after your pets 😇"

"I've used Chris' service for cat sitting my 2 cats in multiple visits for close to 30 days in total since the start of the year. I find her to be a great and prompt communicator. My cats have grown very fond of her and she won over my shy girl cat. I would continue to use her service and high recommend her to others! "

"Jessica is truly a gem! She took care of our two cats, Brick and Xander, while we were away for two weeks, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. From the start, Jessica was incredibly reliable, responsible, and communicative—qualities that gave us total peace of mind.
It was clear right away that she has a natural way with animals. Xander can be a little shy around new people, but he warmed up to her almost immediately, which says a lot! Brick, our more affectionate cat, absolutely adored her too. Jessica kept us updated with messages and adorable photos, and we could tell the cats were happy and comfortable in her care.
We came home to two relaxed, well-loved kitties and a perfectly tidy home. Jessica went above and beyond, and we feel so lucky to have found someone so trustworthy and kind. We would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for top-notch care for their pets. Brick and Xander are already looking forward to her next visit!"

"Capucine & Declan are incredible pet sitters!
They go above and beyond. They took care of all 3 of our animals while overseas, 2 visits a day and dog walking: sent me photos every visit updating me on each of the animals. Cleaned the areas each animal uses and maintained the cleanliness of the entire house. We extended our holiday and kept them on without any worry or concern for our animals.
This couple is a dynamic duo, reliable, honest, kind & a true power pet sitting force. Will use this duo every time we go away or for extra walks when needed. You won’t regret using this duo!! "

"Michelle was amazing and took such good care of my two fur babies, sending through cute photos twice daily. She also cleaned and vacuumed my unit so it looked great when I arrived back home. My little rescue girl Luna really took to her even though she's scared of most people. I will definitely book with Michelle if she's available again next time "

/dayFrequently asked questions about pet sitting
Your pet sitting questions answered
Is Pawshake like a pet hotel?
No: unlike a pet hotel, your furry friend will never stay in a cage, or even leave home if this doesn't suit you. Pet sitting can either be in a safe home environment, or in your own home. It's very personalised to suit you and your pet.
Who can be a pet sitter?
We have hundreds of applicants to join Pawshake every week, but we accept less than 25% of these. Anyone who joins our website must have practical pet care experience and a motivation to be able to provide excellent service. They must be also be verified by SMS, email and location.
What do I get when I book a pet sitter?
When you book a pet sitter through Pawshake, you are getting a personalised carer who can meet your needs. Is your pet a bit shy? Then book a sitter who can stay in your home or pop by to visit. Does your pet love company? Then arrange for your pet to have a fun staycation in a sitter's family home.
Can I find your pet sitters in Melbourne?
Absolutely. Our pet sitters are found in every Melbourne suburb and are ready and eager to help you and your pet. Just head to our website: you won't need to look far from home to find your pet's perfect match.
