When you have to go away or work long hours, you may worry about leaving your pet home alone. Have you ever wondered “Is there a pet or dog sitter in Victoria that can help?”.

Luckily, with Pawshake, you can easily find local and trusted pet and dog carers from Victoria to provide drop in visits and other services. This means a pet sitter will come and visit your pet at a time you both agree on and provide lots of love and personal attention. This can include playtime in the backyard, a walk to the local park, or just some cuddle time. Our pet carers can also administer medication, give food, and refresh the water bowl.

In home pet sitting services are a great way to break up the day and enrich it for your pet. Pawshake pet sitters have extensive experience caring for a range of pets including dogs, cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, birds and more. If you have multiple pets, home visits are a great option to ensure that they all get a visit and lots of attention during the day.

Drop in visits are the least stressful option for your pet because your pet can stay in their favourite environment – their own home in Victoria. Their surroundings will be familiar and our loving and passionate Pawshake sitter will spoil them each day. Our sitters will treat your home with respect and are flexible with timing, requests and durations. All this can be discussed before you make a home visit booking.

Pet boarding is a great option for when you are away for a few days and your pet needs overnight care. Unlike pet hotels, Pawshake pet boarding allows you to arrange a personalised daily routine for your pet, whether this be extra belly rubs, playtime or 24 hour supervision. Your pet will stay with the pet sitter in a cosy home environment, rather than a large, impersonal pet hotel.  

So whether you need just one day, a week or even a month, you’ll be able to find an experienced pet or dog carer to accommodate you and your pet’s needs in Victoria. The best part is that your Pawshake pet sitter is from your local neighbourhood, so they will be familiar with the area.

Our pet carers also have a range of experiences which include puppies, seniors, nervous pets and dog training. So if your pet has special requirements, you’ll be sure to find a pet sitter that is a good match for you.

Your pet’s safety and welfare is a big priority for us, which is why all of our Pawshake pet sitters undergo a strict vetting process by our trust and safety team. At Pawshake, we understand that you might feel a little uneasy allowing a pet sitter to enter your home or arranging pet boarding at their place. This is why Pawshake pet sitters also have reviews from other pet parents that are publicly available on their profile for you to read.

Each pet sitting home visit and pet boarding booking made through Pawshake is covered by the Pawshake Guarantee, which includes veterinary coverage, customer support 7 days a week and more. Rest easy knowing that your pets will be well looked after by one of our expert pet carers in Victoria.

Hello! My name is Egg, and I have been fostering, pet sitting, adopting, rehabilitating and rescuing animals since I was four years old!
i have experience from taking care of newborns, to end of life care. I have lots of experience with pets with medical needs and disabilities as well. 
As far as my schedule goes, I work 10-2 mon-thurs, but my partner is always home during that time. the only time we are both gone is for one hour some monday evenings. I live in an apartment with a sunroom, and am a firm believer of indoor only cats. there's multiple gray ferris near my house, and a dog park not too far away. There is a emergency vet just down the street if ever needed.
I have plenty of toys and healthy live plants enrichment. All of my plants are pet safe, and most of them are specifically for cats! (i have a LOT of cat grass!) I have a birdseed feeder set up outside my window with a perch for cats to see and watch the birds, I also am almost always home and open to play or snuggle!
let me know what your pet likes or doesn’t like, or if they’re on a very tight feeding schedule, or if they have any medication or allergies or other medical conditions.
I absolutely adore pets, cats especially, and would love to meet yours! 
If I sound like a good match, send me a message! 
(I also just saw ferrets is an option here! i've only ever fostered ferrets, but i love them so dearly!!!!! )

Hi there! I'm a full-time writer who loves caring for dogs. I've had the responsibility of pets my entire life, and over the last five years have taken care of an Australian cattle dog whom I adore.&nbsp;
I have extensive experience in managing the needs of very high-energy dogs, but also pets with special needs as I had a cat with Type 1 diabetes for 15 years to whom I had to give insulin shots twice a day. Whether your dog needs tender care at home or needs to go on a 6km hike every day, I'm happy to help.
I am loving, conscientious, and kind. Most of all, I'm trustworthy. Because I spend so much time behind a computer, taking care of your dog or cat would be the highlight of my day. Walks are 45 minutes minimum, and usually longer. I give my all to my animal friends. It also means that I won't be overbooking myself while your dog or cat is in my care.&nbsp;
Get in touch if you'd like to learn more about me and my approach to pet care!


With over 15 years of hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats, I truly understand that pets aren’t “just animals” — they’re cherished members of the family. I bring a calm, attentive, and compassionate approach to pet care, shaped not only by years of experience but also by being a devoted pet parent myself. I currently care for a high-needs cat, which has made me especially comfortable supporting pets who require extra patience, consistency, and thoughtful attention.
I am well-versed in medication routines, special dietary needs, behavioral sensitivities, and providing the kind of reassurance that helps pets feel safe and secure in their own environment. I take the time to understand each pet’s unique personality, preferences, and routines, ensuring they receive the same level of care, respect, and love I give my own.
I previously provided pet-sitting services in Ottawa before relocating to Victoria and am excited to begin offering care here. While my “spicy cheeto” is very much a one-cat wonder, that simply means I can dedicate my full attention to caring for your pets in the comfort of their own homes. You can trust that your pet will be treated with kindness, reliability, and genuine care while you’re away.&nbsp;
