House sitting | Pug Ridley, Pug Lizzie

I was so happy that Julia could stay with Ridley and Lizzie (aka the fur kids) while we were away. We came home and they seemed like they barely missed us at all! She took great care of them, giving them lots of love and cuddles.

Dog sitter

Dog sitting can refer to several different services.

Home dog boarding: Your pup stays with at a host family’s home for a set amount of time while you are away. The host family feeds, walks and cares for your furry friend just as lovingly as you would. Read more ...

Dog walking: A dog walker picks up your dog at an agreed time to walk him or her while you are away. Read more ...

Doggy day care: Your dog spends the day at the dog sitter’s home while you are away. Depending on the agreement, either the owner or the sitter can see to the dog’s “commute” from home to the place of day care. Read more ...

Why dog sitting?

You no longer have to ask neighbors, friends or family to take care of your giant Bernese Mountain Dog while you're away.

How does dog sitting work?

Free Meet & Greet: The first step is to search for a dog sitter in your area who suits your needs and is available. Contact them and arrange a Meet & Greet so you can get to know each other and, if the dog sitter has a dog of their own, introduce the dogs to each other safely.

Pay through Pawshake: If you all get along well, book and pay safely via Pawshake.
