Sometimes you are away and in need of a sitter for a night or two. Say, you're going to a festival or on a cruise that doesn't allow animals for example. Pawshake (very similar to Dogvacay) is the best resource I found for finding reliable help while you're abroad so your furry friend can have the best care possible.

Pawshake is offered in the following countries and is a way to connect with sitters who will watch your pup in their homes so you don't have to put them in a kennel:
  • Australia
  • Austria
  • Belgium
  • Canada
  • Danmark
  • Deutschland
  • France
  • Hong Kong
  • Ireland
  • Italy
  • Japan (日本)
  • Luxemburg
  • Netherlandserland
  • New Zealand
  • Norge
  • United Kingdom
  • Singapore
  • Suomi
  • Switzerland

If you're able to, it'd be best to meet with the sitter in their homes ahead of time - even the day before is fine - so your pup is a bit familiar with the place and has met its temporary family ahead of time.
