"We were very happy with Robyn as a pet sitter. We needed someone to look after our dog with little notice and Robyn was so accomodating. Great communications, easy to deal with, dog happy and place was super tidy.

"We couldn’t have asked for a better house sitter! From the moment we left, we felt totally at ease knowing our home and pets were in such caring hands. Erin took our dog on the most wonderful walks (we got regular updates and pics), and when we returned, the house was spotless — actually cleaner than we left it! Every detail was thought of — clean sheets, washed towels, and to top it off, she even left a hand-drawn picture of our dog and cat that absolutely melted our hearts. She went above and beyond in every way, and we’d have her back in a heartbeat. Highly, highly recommend!"

"Charlie has been checking in on my spaniel while I'm at work and recently looked after her for 4 days while I was away - the first time I've left her (so she had to manage an anxious dog and an even more anxious owner).
She's definitely not your average dogsitter.
The compassion and care she shows is next level. I've never seen my dog sitting on someone's knee so fast which is HUGE for us.
Charlie navigated my dog's reactivity on walks, and was quick to reassure me that my dog was in safe hands (I knew they were having too much fun to miss me). Charlie was happy to stick to our routines and walking routes, and provided updates including stunning photos throughout.
Charlie's the best 🌟 she'll go above and beyond for your pet and make sure they feel happy and are kept safe. "

"We had Tavis look after our two dogs for 10 days at our home. Having a stranger look after our dogs in our home made me nervous. However, Tavis was amazing. As soon as we met him, he made us feel comfortable. He answered all our questions and sent us regularly updates while we were away. We came back to happy dogs. Thank you Tavis, will definitely use you again. "

"We’ve returned from a week away, and during that time one of our dogs, Lola, became quite unwell with a virus and suffered severe diarrhoea for several days. Geena handled the situation with incredible care and professionalism, including dealing with all the clean-up and even taking Lola to the after-hours vet at 2am, only getting home again around 4am.
We were so grateful knowing our dogs were in such caring and capable hands while we were away. Her communication throughout was fantastic, with regular updates that gave us real peace of mind during what could have been a very stressful situation.
Coming home to happy dogs and an immaculate house was hugely appreciated.
We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Geena to anyone looking for a reliable, compassionate, and genuinely caring pet sitter. "

"We had the most amazing experience with our house sitters and dog sitters while we were away. They took such wonderful care of our dogs, and it was clear they were genuinely happy, relaxed, and well loved the entire time.
We were kept updated daily with detailed messages about how the dogs were doing, what they had been up to, and plenty of photos, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were overseas. As first-time dog owners leaving our dogs behind, I was quite anxious, but this experience could not have been better.
We would absolutely ask Fernanda and her beautiful family for their help again in the future and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to anyone. Highly, highly recommended!"

"I honestly can’t say enough good things about Cathy. From the moment we met her, it was clear that she genuinely cares about animals, and that care really showed in the way she looked after Shadow. She was a fantastic pet sitter and treated Shadow as if she were her own, making sure she was well cared for, comfortable, and happy while we were away.
We did have an unexpected and stressful incident where Shadow managed to escape from the fenced area. Cathy handled the situation calmly, responsibly, and exactly as you would hope someone would. She immediately took action by contacting the local pound, nearby veterinary clinics, and Shadow’s regular vet, leaving no stone unturned. Throughout the entire process, Cathy kept me fully updated and in the loop, which made a huge difference during what could have been a very worrying time.
What really stood out was Cathy’s dedication and professionalism. She didn’t panic, she didn’t give up, and she genuinely went above and beyond to make sure Shadow was safe. Her communication was excellent, and I always felt reassured that Shadow was in the best possible hands.
I would not hesitate for a second to recommend Cathy to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and proactive pet sitter. Knowing that someone like Cathy is looking after your pet gives you complete peace of mind"

"Kate took great care of our dog Billy whilst we were on holiday. Billy is a recently adopted rescue dog who is still a bit anxious so we were very careful about who we chose. We could see straight away that he was happy with Kate. Communication was efficient and timely and our home was left neat and clean. Happy dog, happy owners. "

"Isabella looked after our three dogs for a week while we were in Australia and we were very happy with the experience.
One of the things we especially appreciated was that Isabella works from home, which meant she was able to spend plenty of time with the dogs and provide them with lots of company and attention.
Communication was great, with updates and photos of the dogs' walks, which was pleasing, knowing they were happy, and well cared for.
We returned to an immaculate house. Everything was left exactly as we'd hoped.
We would happily recommend Isabella to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and professional pet sitter

"After using Pawshake and finding an amazing pet sitter in Petra I can’t see us ever using a kennel or cattery for our fur babies! It was such a relief to be able to leave them in safe, responsible and conscientious hands. Petra was so lovely, a great communicator and we felt at ease straight away after meeting her. Our dog and two cats were well cared for and we had a great holiday without any worries about them or our home while we were away. Thanks Petra, we’d love to have you back in the future!"

"I had a wonderful experience with Meg and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for reliable and caring support for their pets. Communication was excellent throughout — I received regular updates, photos, and quick responses whenever I had questions, which gave me real peace of mind.
While I was overseas, my fur baby Jamie was diagnosed with cancer. Meg not only ensured that Jamie received all the care he required during that difficult time, but she also made sure his medication was administered punctually and properly. Knowing he was in such capable and compassionate hands meant everything to me.
Meg truly went the extra mile to make sure my pet was comfortable and well taken care of. It’s clear that she is very knowledgeable about pets and understands their behavior and needs. Most importantly, she genuinely cares — Jamie was happy, relaxed, and clearly very well looked after.
I’m so grateful for her attentive and thoughtful care, and I will definitely be booking her again in the future."
