"Absolutely amazing I was so worried about leaving my dogs. I shouldn’t have been all 3 dogs absolutely adored Francesca, I couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter/house sitter than Francesca. She messaged at least twice a day with pictures videos. All 3 slept with her in bed, medication was sorted every day for my dog with his recurring ear infection. Amazing lady worth every penny if you want a relaxing holiday. "

"We were really happy with the care and attention Lauren gave to our two cats. She was kind, responsible, and kept us well informed throughout. When one of our cats suddenly developed diarrhoea, Lauren noticed it and let us know promptly, which meant we were able to come home in time and take the appropriate action. It gave us great peace of mind knowing our cats were in such caring and capable hands. We really appreciated how attentive Lauren was and would happily recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring cat sitter. "

"We had 2 weeks holiday and we left Athos and Lumi with Joe all this time. We received dayli info about them. Pics, videos and updates. On our return we found them both better than ever. The house in perfectly order, everything clean. We couldn't thank Joe enough for her care to Lumi and Athos. Words can not fully describe how happy we are that we had Joe looking for Athos and Lumi.

"Cassie and Lucy took excellent care of my elderly dog, my cat, and my house! They even dealt with a boiler crisis while I was away in a different time zone, helping to resolve it before I returned. My pets have special needs, and it's hard to find such conscientious sitters. I will definitely be relying on them to petsit again."

"First time using Pawshake, but if Jess is anything to go by I will certainly be using them (her) again. I was a little nervous about a totaly stranger staying in my house but Jess made me feel comfortable and my dogs (and the cat) seemed to love her. She took to their routines easily and it was easy to see she would cope. I can't recommend Jess highly enough (but not too high as I want her again). Thanks Jess you made the whole experience! Doug."

"Ela was an incredible pet sitter. We left her, for a week while we were away, with our two Maine Coon cats and our German Shepherd. We had constant communication with beautiful and amazing photos on a daily basis. From feeding to play to daily walks, everything and more was covered. Ela adores animals and her care and commitment to our beloved pets and our family home was astounding. We highly recommend Ela’s services and will always seek to book her if we have to go away."

"I would just like to thank Cass and her partner Sam for taking care whilst sitting for our shih tzu Phoebe. Phoebe is the kind of dog that does not like change after having 11 years of upset, but we found that Cass and Sam were absolutely amazing with her, they house sat for 2 days to keep Phoebe in her own environment and I can’t thank them enough for looking after her, I would definitely recommend Cass to anybody who is unsure about leaving their baby whilst they go away, she did an amazing job.

"Alice was an absolute lifesaver, stepping in to house sit for my cat and large dog on short notice over the holidays for two weeks. She was fantastic! From the very beginning, her communication was top-notch. During our meet and greet, she took the time to properly introduce our dogs, as I didn't mind to let her dog stay over if they got along. Throughout her stay, Alice provided daily updates with pictures and videos, which was incredibly reassuring. She went above and beyond, especially when unexpected delays extended my return. I can't thank her enough for her flexibility and support. Despite having two dogs who love muddy adventures, the house was spotless when I returned, just as I had left it. I highly recommend Alice for her exceptional care and dedication."

"Ellie is an amazing pet sitter! She sat for a week for my 12 year old cocker spaniel and 4 month old golden retriever puppy plus cats and hamster! Having never had a house sitter before, I was understandably nervous, especially leaving the pup (holiday had been booked long before we decided to get her) but didn’t want to put her into kennels or even at someone’s house as I didn’t want to disrupt her routine. Ellie came across as responsible and capable and came and did a couple of meet and greets including test walks before we went away. Whilst we were away she gave us daily updates and loads of photos to reassure us that everything was ok and she kept the house immaculate! I highly recommend Ellie and more than happy to give references if needed! "

Why house sitting ?

Are you going away but have a pet that prefers to stay in their own environment? Or perhaps you have a range of different animals and it’s not practical for you to organise for them to stay in different places? Then you might want to consider finding a Pawshake house sitter to come and stay at your Melbourne home while you are away.

House sitting is a convenient and affordable option when you have multiple pets and also want your house to be securely looked after while you are away. Many of our pet sitters have very reasonable house sitting rates because they enjoy staying and exploring different local neighbourhoods like Melbourne.

At Pawshake, we understand that trusting your home to a stranger can be a little daunting. So we’ve done all the hard work to ensure that your Pawshake house sitter is trustworthy and reliable. All our pet sitter profiles are checked individually by our dedicated trust and safety team and some house sitters also have their own police checks which they can share with you.

The best thing about engaging a Pawshake verified house sitter is that you can relax knowing that on top of being covered by The Pawshake Guarantee which includes veterinary coverage, so your pets are being cared for in a familiar environment and your Melbourne home is also being looked after as well.

In addition to looking after your pets, most of our house sitters will happily help you by collecting your mail, taking out the bins, and watering your plants. Just make sure you discuss all your requirements with your chosen house sitter prior to booking.

Pet owners book house sitting in Melbourne on Pawshake. Over 377 pet owners in Melbourne have left a review, with an average of 4.98/5. All paid safely using Maestro, Visa, Mastercard, American Express
