I use PawShake myself when my partner and I travel overseas.
You want to know your cat is in safe hands with a trusted pet sitter.
About me
Growing up, I was lucky to have many pets and cared for a wide range of animals – from cats, dogs, chickens, ducks, canaries, fish and even rabbits.
Cats hold a special place in my heart. Ever since I was a child, I have loved their crazy, independent and sweet nature.
My last cat, Oskar, was a joy for me. I was grateful to love and care for her for just over 23 years.
My partner and I are planning to adopt another cat (or two) and a dog in the next few years. But we also plan to travel a little more as well, so we’re happy to take our time for this big commitment.
Until then, I want to help others who may need help from a cat sitter like we did – and I miss having cats in my life. :)
My services:
I work from home as a freelance graphic designer, so I’m happy to either visit your cat at your home or have them stay with me.
House calls:
Areas covered:
For house calls: I currently cover South Caulfield and surrounding suburbs.
If it looks like I'm fully booked but you live in or next to Caulfiled South please still contact me, I can often fit in an extra booking per day if you live close by.
Boarding: All suburbs – I’m happy to have cats stay with me from any suburb if you’re willing to drop them off and pick them up from my Caulfield South location. Please use the 'Dog boarding' option when booking.
Please don't hesitate to contact me with any questions and I look forward to a meet and greet, so you can let me know how I can help.
Full refund if canceled before 12:00 p.m. one day before the booking, 50% refund afterward.
No refund is payable if the booking is canceled on or after the start date.

Katy has taken care of my two Bengal girls during Christmas break and again now. It is a testament to her love for them that they recognized her now. Katy has been a godsend to me, as I now know that I can go on holidays without worrying, as long as Katy is available to look after them. Warm recommendations to anyone who has cats and is looking for a cat sitter. The girls were fed, played with and cuddled, litter changed, and I got pictures daily.
From the time we arrived I felt at ease leaving our little three month old kitten in Katherine’s care, she is warm, friendly and passionate about caring for cats. Our communication leading up to the booking was brilliant, everything ran smoothly and easily. Katherine even had a litter tray, scratching pole and toys ready for our cat which was great. We enjoyed receiving daily photos and videos of our little girl playing with Katherine, you could see that our little one felt safe and relaxed in her care.
Will 100% be using Katherine’s services again!
