"Geraldine is awesome. She goes way beyond what I was expecting.
My cat got a bit sick while we were away. Geraldine was very patient and caring dealing with all the unexpected. She even helped me to clean the areas where there was accident.
I came back with a happy and healthy cat.
Geraldine is someone who really cares about cat. She is a good communicator and is willing to communicate outside her visiting hours. She even took the time and effort to look up how the new cat feeder worked which I just bought before my trip but haven’t tested myself yet.
I really appreciate Geraldine for looking after my cat and will reach out to her again for sure!"

"Jacinta was absolutely wonderful. Jacinta was reliable, friendly and incredible with our cats. We were sent cute updates each day and it really put our mind at ease knowing our cats were cared for.
Our two cats are rescue cats and usually very timid and scared of strangers. They shy away and I honestly thought Jacinta would have to leave the food out for sprinkles because she would be too scared to eat in front of a new person. On the first day Jacinta sent me photos of sprinkles not hiding and on day 2 sprinkles was playing with her!!! I honestly could believe it, she has a real understanding for cats behaviours and we are so grateful to have Jacinta come and help us.
Can’t recommend enough 🙏"

"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!! "

"Ghawady was absolutely amazing, I can’t recommend her enough. This was my first time hiring a pet sitter and I was a bit nervous initially, but the second I met Ghawady I felt so comfortable and knew she was the right person to take care of my cats. She sent me the most beautiful photos and updates on my cats everyday, my cats absolutely adored her (even my standoffish cat loved cuddling with her), and honestly I just can’t recommend her enough ☺️"

"Meilin took excellent care of my cat! My cat is very skittish and slow to warm up to people, but within a few days Meilin had her sitting in her lap eating out of her hand. Communication was great, and everything went very smoothly. I would absolutely hire Meilin again."

"Jenny was amazing! She was all of the things you want in a good pet sitter. Communicative, friendly, respectful of the house and most of all amazing with my cat, Kit.
I would have absolutely no doubt in hiring her again, and I know Kit would feel the same way.
In fact he might be mad if I don't! "

"Chris has become our go-to cat sitter. She is a reliable and effective communicator and takes wonderful care of our two cats. They are both rescues and thus can be fragile while we are away. They warm to Chris very quickly and when we return it’s clear they have been well cared for. Chris is always careful to lock up the house and will water the garden or put out the bins if required. We are really pleased to have found her.
Highly recommended. "

"Aanchal took good care of our 3 fur babies while we were away. She was able to properly administer oral medication to one of our feisty cat. She was also able to accommodate our timings as our sick cat requires medication every 12 hours. She sent many pictures and videos of our cats, and regularly update us on them. We highly recommend Aanchal! :)"

She took the tram to my place every day and went above and beyond, taking Shiloh for walks and sent lots of great videos and photos. Shiloh had a lovely time and has never been so spoiled! Tina was upfront about the cost and great value, and I thoroughly recommend her!"

"If you are looking for an incredibly kind, communicative and overall lovely pet sitter I can highly recommend Yi. She looked after my cat Camilla for two weeks recently and made sure she was happy and healthy and I came home to a well cared for cat.

"Fan Rui was a caring and conscientious support for our lonely cat, Minnie, as we travelled overseas for a week. He takes the time to learn all he can about your pet, and spends the time to form a relationship with you and your fur-child. He kept our cat well fed, took care of all toileting issues, and spent the time to play with our cat each day so it wouldn't feel alone. Highly recommended pet- sitter!"

/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.
