"BEST SITTER EVER! Colleen was an absolutely amazing pet & house sitter! We had her stay at our home to look after our cat for a few weeks, and couldn’t be happier with how everything went. She was incredible about sending daily updates with photos and videos, which we loved, and it was so clear our cat was happy, comfortable, and well cared for the whole time.
When we came home, the house was immaculately clean, and on top of that she left us the sweetest bundle of goodies. Colleen truly went above and beyond. We would 100% ask her to sit for us again and recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, trustworthy sitter! "

"Amala was a wonderful pet sitter for my mini Poodle. She followed my detailed care guide to the T and was incredibly attentive and responsible throughout her stay at my place. She sent daily updates and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind, and it was clear from every update that Poodlu was happy, active, and very well cared for.
Amala was proactive, communicative, and genuinely caring. I could see that she took the time to understand his routine, commands and behaviour, and she handled everything beautifully. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, thoughtful, and caring pet sitter, and I would happily trust her with Poodlu again."

"I would highly recommend Cindy and Ronald for pet sitting. Our dogs were extremely well looked after, regularly walked and given lots of love and cuddles while we were away. One of our dogs had a recent eye injury and needed multiple medications each day...this wasnt an issue for Cindy and Ronald. They diligently followed the instructions, administered the medications and provided daily updates. We had complete peace of mind that the dogs were in the best hands and had a great trip. The house was absolutely spotless when we returned too! Honestly, they are the best dog sitters we have ever found! Thank you so much!"

"Amanda was a fantastic sitter - she took care of our two cats really well and acted swiftly when one of them suffered a urinary blockage (twice!) after hours. She showed great compassion and patience during a difficult situation, and kept us informed the whole time. Can't recommend highly enough ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️"

"⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
We couldn’t recommend Maria more!
Maria looked after our miniature dachshund Norman at our place for 4 days, and we honestly couldn’t have asked for a better experience.
We met with her a few weeks beforehand and she was super friendly and instantly made us feel at ease – especially important as it was the first time we’d ever left our fur baby.
While we were away, Maria kept us updated with regular photos and videos, which was so reassuring. Norman clearly had the best time, and our house was left exactly as we left it.
We’ll definitely be booking Maria again for future house sitting for Norman and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and genuinely great with pets. 🐶💛
Thank you again!

"We recently had another incredible experience with Melanie. Despite reaching out to her last minute, she graciously agreed to take care of our home and our beloved Pixie for a two-night stay. On one of the days, Melanie had work commitments but went the extra mile to organise for her partner to look after Pixie throughout the day. Her dedication and willingness to go above and beyond in every aspect truly stood out. Pixie adores Melanie, and it was evident that he had the best weekend under her care. We are so grateful for Melanie's exceptional service and the genuine affection she showed our doggo. We are looking forward to a meet and greet so Pixie can make some new furry friends - Melanie has 4! Thank you Mel, and see you soon! "

"Caylene was awesome. She house sat for my 15 year old cat Aku and 12 year old dog Ella both of whom can be shy and wary of strangers. She has a beautiful calm energy and they took to her quickly and I came home to two happy and healthy girls. We had two meet and greets to be sure which left me confident that they would be well looked after leaving me to enjoy my trip. I got several updates with photos to see how they were doing. From the updates Ella had a great holiday too going out and about on adventures. I also came home to a clean tidy house and freshly made bed, much appreciated after a long haul flight. I highly recommend Caylene as a pet sitter and will book her again. "

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 Karaka 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 Karaka.
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 Karaka 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.
