For pet parents, one of the hardest things about going to work each day is wondering what your dog will get up to while you are gone. At Pawshake, we understand that dogs need activity and interaction during the day, so why not book your dog with one of our trusted sitters in Karaka for a doggy day care service? You can drop your dog off at the sitter’s home on the way to work or organise with your local Karaka Pawshake sitter to pick up and drop off your dog for you.

Pet day care is a great way to keep your dog mentally and physically active during the day so that you can come home to a happy, relaxed dog. Pawshake’s home day care service is great for young dogs who need constant supervision: puppy daycare allows your pup to maintain a consistent routine, which is important during the toilet training process. It’s also a great option for dogs who need extra care and attention, or those who are extra active.

Our sitters who offer doggy day care and puppy daycare services are more adaptable than your average big day care centre. Numbers are kept small and some Pawshake sitters will only take in one dog at a time. This means they can work around your timing and any special requirements your dog may have. So, let your four-legged best friend enjoy their day with a fun and loving Karaka sitter who will shower them with love and dedicated attention. On top of that, you will also get photos and updates during the day so that you can follow your dog’s day care adventures!

Every day care booking also comes included with The Pawshake Guarantee, which includes veterinary coverage, customer service support 7 days a week and more.

Hi I'm Shannon 
I'm 32 and work from home with flexible hours so can be available as required for walking and feeding your fur babies.
I have two fur babies of my own, a cat, Bonnie who is 13 and a dog, Violet, who is 4. Both were rescues, and are now living a very lush life being spoilt with love.&nbsp;
I know how hard it is to leave your fur babies when you go away, so I'd love to be able to give you peace of mind knowing your animals are safe and cared for so you can enjoy your time.&nbsp;
For your cats, I am available to pop around for meal times, once or twice daily and can also make sure they are inside at night if they have a curfew.&nbsp;
I am also available for dog walking (only one dog at a time), provided your pup and my dog get along. My preference is to take them on a short walk together first during our meet and greet, to give them a proper and safe introduction.&nbsp;
During my work from home hours, I am able to offer a place for your dog to come hang with my dog, again, provided they get along and become besties. We have a small backyard which is fully fenced but are a 1 minute walk from a lovely waterway walk that has lots of good smells!
Violet is very playful but a gentle and senstive girl so must be the right fit for her. This is only available for dogs who don't have a preydrive and are good with cats.&nbsp;
Please note, for the health and safety of my dog, I am only able to offer services for vaccinated dogs. 
If there is anything else you may need please let me know as I may be able to accommodate additional requests.&nbsp;

Services:
I am available throughout the day; mornings, afternoons and evenings.&nbsp;
Dog walking: $15/ walk will be approx. 1 hour walk for your dog, we have a beautiful waterway walk nearby and usually walk around there, there is also an off-lead dog park if your dog is okay with other dogs. We have a couple long lines which allow freedom and safety for your dog if you are happy for me to use those on our walks. 
Home Visits: My work is flexible so if you require company for your fur babies I can bring my laptop and work from your home to keep your fur babies company during the day. This is particulary suitable for pets who need to be kept a close eye on or cannot be left alone for long periods eg. post surgery or injury. I am happy to administer medication both oral and injections. I am unable to stay over night at this stage.&nbsp;
During home visits if you require the mail to be brought in or rubbish to be brought in or out, I'm also happy to do that.&nbsp;
Training: I can offer basic command training (sit, stay, leave it, down, place, come) and some fun tricks too (touch, spin, shake, fetch etc). Please note, I am not a qualified trainer and these are things I have successfully taught our dog. 

I have over 4 years experience as a Veterinary Nurse and  a Certificate in Animal Care! I have always loved being around animals, and they have always been around me ever since I can remember.&nbsp;
Our pup Roxy is 14 months old and she is a rescue dog. She has come along way since we got her. She absolutley loves being around  all dogs no matter what age or size. She is very playful and loves going on adventures, especiallly if there is a beach or river nearby. Our cat Snookie does not really mind being around other dogs,and usually just minds his own business unless they are giving him a hard time he will find a quiet spot to go too.&nbsp;
I would love to provide care and lots of cuddles to your fur babies when you are not able to do so! We have got a fully fenced back yard with alot of space for them to run around and they will even have a friend to play with...what a bonus!
I would also be able to help out if they have any specific medical requirements. I am fully comfortable giving tablets, injections or even taking them on a walk if need be. Just let me know!
Feel free to contact me to discuss further&nbsp;
Mariska :)


Hey pet owners, I'm a kiwi who has moved to Syndey a few months agoWhy house sit:

I love animals. Grew up with a cat, chickens in the country (working for a dairy farm)
Experience different areas of AUS
Meet people / make connections
Missing my tuxedo cat 'Keh' from the photos (back in NZ). I work on my computer and had my cat by my side for 10 years (since a kitten)

Working from my laptop
I run an online marketing company and spend most of my time working. Have house sitted for cats and dogs. Familiar with big dogs and how to handle them.One thing I notice with animals is they use their eyes and head movement to communicate. It's very weird but I talk to all animals, birds, Insects in this way with my eyes/movements (it's a gut feeling, but could be crazy)Would love to do a video call for anyone wanting to talk. I've got house sitting references here in Australia and Auckland, New Zealand
