"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 🙏"

"Adrian looked after our cat for 6 weeks while we were on holiday abroad. He has a great knowledge of cats and dogs and even provided us with some very useful tips on cat feeding. He visited us twice before the actual booking dates to familiarise himself with the cat as well as with the surroundings. He updated us with our cat's photos and details of her health after every visit, which was a great relief while we were away for too long. Adrian always checked with us whether something more needs to be done and even offered to buy food for the cat when the supply was running low. We found him to be trustworthy, punctual, systematic and has great compassion towards animals. We will definitely be looking forward to booking Adrian the next time we are away from home! We strongly recommend him to anyone who is looking for a reliable and trustworthy house sitter or a caregiver for their pets. 5 stars!!! Thanks a lot, Adrian!! "

"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! "

"We highly recommend Chris as a cat sitter! She showed genuine affection for our cats, Mia and Grace, making us feel at ease while we were away. Flexible with timing and always thoughtful, Chris ensured our cats were well-cared for, leaving our home spotless and even surprising us with a new scooper. We’re truly grateful for her exceptional service and can’t wait for her to look after Mia and Grace again. Thanks, Chris, for your wonderful care!"

"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!"

Very smooth communication, and he’s experienced in taking care of cats and kittens. We’ve received some valuable advices from him regarding how to create a better and safer environment for animals at home.
Thank you Chester! Would love to meet your cat someday :) "

"Prunella and Darren were excellent cat-sitters. They were professional, caring and trustworthy. Prunella and Darren followed all of the instructions we had left perfectly, and were proactive in keeping our cat entertained. They provided daily updates with photos and videos, gave our little one all the attention he needed while we were away, and even watered our plants. It was very reassuring to know that our cat was being taken care of by people that both knew what they were doing and treated him with the affection to which he is accustomed. We highly recommend Prunella and Darren to look after your pets, and we will seek them out again next time we go away. "

/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.
