"Lauren was super good with nimbus, keeping him company and making sure he was fed and his litter was taking care of. I am very grateful for her attentive care and the photos she sent me of nimbus being happy and engaged. I will definitely keep her in mind for the future!"

"Ashley took care of our cat Augustine twice this summer during daily home visits.
We agreed on an ideal time range for the visits, and Ashley visited daily on the agreed time.
Communications were excellent both times. I had daily news and photos after each visit, and Ashley reported back on some details as appropriate (when our cat was more or less playful or hungry, etc.). Ashley also gave our cat her daily meds. This is something we had been concerned about prior to having a pet sitter. It was really smooth with Ashley right away, so we’re very happy 😊.
I trust Ashley with our cat and highly recommend her for home visits."

"Alexandra was an amazing sitter for my two cats! She took great care of our house too, and I fully trusted that she would make sure everything was running smoothly while I was out of town. She sent cute photos of our cats, and it was obvious that they really liked spending time with her! I would highly recommend her for pet sitting - thanks again Alexandra!"

"If you're looking for someone to care for your pets with true love and attention, Johanne is the perfect choice! My wife and I recently went on a month-long vacation, and we entrusted Johanne with our beloved elderly cat. From the very beginning, we could tell she was an animal lover through her thoughtful approach to our cat's needs.
Johanne went above and beyond, ensuring our cat was comfortable, well-fed, and entertained. She took the time to get to know our cat's personality and preferences, and it was clear she truly cared. We received regular updates, complete with pictures, showing our little fur-baby happy and content. Either snoozing in various spots, or cuddling in her lap. It was such a relief to know that while we were away, our cat was receiving the best care possible!
Her genuine affection for animals and her attention to detail made all the difference. We couldn't be more grateful for Johanne's exceptional service. We would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a compassionate and reliable pet sitter. Thank you, Johanne, for treating our cat like your own!"

"Rachelle is the one to book for when you’re going away, she was wonderful to deal with, she came and met the kitty’s, took note of how to take care of them, when I left she was always updating me, making sure that the cats got their playtime, their wet food, I feel so happy and secure knowing we have Rachelle to take care of our babies for our future travels. I could not have asked for a better pet sitter. We will definitely book her again for the future "

"Steffany was a fantastic cat sitter for us during a week-long vacation. Our somewhat shy kitty took to her instantly during our meet and greet, letting us know he'd be in good hands. Her communication was great, with detailed updates and pictures for every visit. She helped us vacation at ease knowing our furball was being well cared for. We will be calling Steffany again the next time we need a cat sitter!"

She obviously wanted to make sure she gave our pets the best care possible. During our time away, she provided regular updates and photos, and our pets loved her!"

"I cannot say enough good things about Giacomo! From our first meeting, I found him to be exactly the kind of person you want to look after your pets. We were going on a holiday in Portugal for eight days and immediately booked him to cat sit before someone else snapped him up! First, he took the time to meet my two cats and was very attentive when I went through their day to day routine. You could tell he just loves animals. One of our cats requires medication mixed with her food twice daily. When we arrived in Portugal, I received a message from Giacomo that the fob we gave him wasn’t working. He did not panic! Because of the time difference, I was not able to get back to him in time for his first visit. He was very quick thinking and buzzed random people in the building until someone let him in! He was very quick to communicate with us over the next couple of days and we coordinated with a neighbour who he had to contact ahead of each visit to have them meet him and let him in. Needless to say, this was a lot of extra work for him. It took a couple of days to sort things out before we got his fob reactivated. He was so good about it! In his communications, he let us know how sweet our cats were and how much he was genuinely enjoying them. Some days, rather than visiting twice, he would stay and our cats had him around all day. One msg we received said one of them was sitting on his lap for 2-3 hours a day. The other was rolling over so he could rub her belly! As a result, we had absolutely no worries about how they were doing, leaving us to relax and thoroughly enjoy our holiday. He sent a message during his last visit to check to make sure we were arriving on schedule and offered to do additional visits if we were delayed. How responsible and thoughtful! When we returned, our cats were of course happy to see us but for the first few days you could tell they missed Giacomo. He left us with a very high standard of care to live up to! Any animal would be very lucky to have Giacomo look after them. "

"This is the fourth time Myriam has watched our two cats and as always, we were very happy with her service. This time we were gone for almost two weeks (the longest we have been away from our cats so we were anxious). There was no need to be - Myriam took such wonderful care of the cats and sent us daily photos (she takes the best cat photos). The cats were well cared for and she takes the time to get to know their personalities and play with them. It really put our mind at ease during our vacation knowing the cats were being well taken care of. Thanks again!"

Why cat sitting ?
Many cat owners will understand that cats can be fussy and prefer their own home environment rather than an unfamiliar place like a cattery or cat hotel. Although some cats can adapt to cat boarding if they have to, most cats become stressed when transported somewhere new.
This is where a friendly Ottawa Pawshake cat feeder or carer can help. Our Ottawa cat sitting expert can come and visit your cat while you are away on holiday or at work. A cat sitter can even stay overnight if required, which is far less stressful than sending your feline friend to a cattery for cat boarding. Whether you just need a sitter for a couple of hours or someone to visit each day for a week, our Ottawa cat sitters can tailor their service to suit you and please even the fussiest kitty.
Although most cats are independent, having a cat carer visit has a lot of benefits. Your chosen Pawshake cat sitter can feed, freshen up the water bowl, tidy the litter tray, and spend quality time with your cat. And unlike a cattery or cat hotel, your cat can chill out in their own familiar space.
Finally, every booking with Pawshake is with a verified carer and includes the Pawshake Guarantee and veterinary coverage, so you have nothing to worry about when it comes to your feline companion!
