"We have used Pawshake before when we travel. We like the idea of having someone visit our home versus placing our nervous cat in a kitty kennel. I located Johanne using Pawshake and we arranged for a meet to get to know her before our trip. She immediately bonded with our cat and we felt totally comfortable giving her open access to our home while we were away.
Johanne attended our home on the schedule we had agreed upon and spent quality time with our cat and kept us updated on each of her visits. If you are planning on looking for a responsible adult that truly cares for cats, that you want to trust to be punctual and communicative, then I have no hesitation in recommending Johanne. "

"Lauren was great! She took care of my two cats for about two weeks while I was away visiting family. She was very responsive and sent reports with pictures every after visit. I was less worried knowing that Lauren regularly checked in on my cats and cared for them. "

"I had to leave town for a week and had the pleasure of having a pet sitter take care of my three beloved cats while I was away for over a week. Her name is Tanya and she was absolutely incredible! She arrived promptly on time each day and prepared plenty of food and water.
Tanya agreed to take care of my cats at my house and take care of things while I was away. I knew that I could trust her. She also helped with four tropical plants that require a lot of attention. For those in the same situation I was in, I would encourage you to consider Tanya as your pet sitter."

"Angela was a fantastic cat sitter. She was extremely communicative and provided amazingly detailed reports of how our cat was doing while we were away. She treated our cat and our home with the utmost care. Angela was very accommodating of our complex schedule to plan the meet-and-greet as well the key drop-off and pick-up. I definitely recommend Angela for pet sitting needs. She is truly passionate about caring for animals and it shows in all of her interactions throughout the process. "

"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. "

"In a word: fantastic. Our cats have never been so healthy, happy and playful after our return from a trip as with Billie. We have had cat sitter visits, boarded at cat sitters, had them with family and also done “kitty hotels”. Nothing compares to the wonderful impact Billie made with the bonding and playtime she puts into her visits. A bonus: her conscientiousness regarding cleaning, both for the cats’ resources (dishes, litter etc) as well as the general living space. After an exhausting trip with 4 connections and a 9.5 hour jet lag, nothing can compare to the happy squeaks of our “cubsies” and a lovely clean environment to return home to. Thank you to Billie and if you can get a spot in her calendar, do it! "

Everything went really well. 2 weeks in my absence and my cat was in great shape when I returned. You were very professional. You did more than I wanted, your attention to doudou reassured me throughout my absence. Your daily communication was very reassuring for me. We can see that you love animals and that you know them. It is obvious that I recommend Kassandra to take care of your animals in your absence, she knows what she is talking about... a big THANK YOU miss you were great "

"I cannot express enough how wonderful Ivonne was as a catsitter! From the moment I met her, I knew my cats would be in great hands, and she truly exceeded all expectations. My cats absolutely adored her, and it was clear she gave them so much love and attention. She kept me updated with hilarious videos of their antics, which gave me peace of mind and lots of laughs while I was away.
Ivone followed all my instructions to the letter, making sure everything was done exactly as I requested. Not only was she attentive to my cats' needs, but she also left my house spotless—it's like she was never even there! Her communication was excellent, always responsive and considerate. It’s not easy to find someone who you trust completely with your home and pets, but I would recommend Ivone in a heartbeat. I’m already looking forward to having her care for my cats again!

"We were faced with the dilemma most vacationing cat owners face when traveling. Who do we entrust our pet with while we are gone? Do we disrupt our kitty's life by boarding her in a strange environment or do we leave her at home with someone checking in with her.
Our decision was made easy when we met Zahraa. We contacted her through Pawshake and she came around to our house for a meeting prior to us leaving. We decided to engage her pet visiting services and couldn't have been happier with the results.
Zahraa proved to be reliable, punctual and most importantly genuinely cared for our rather skittish cat. I had no concerns with allowing her access to our house while we were absent as she proved to be trustworthy and her messages with photos of each visit confirmed that she was being conscientious and fulfilling her promises of caring for our cat.
I would highly recommend anyone looking to engage cat visiting services or any other services entrusting their pet to someone to reach out to Zahraa. She won't let you down and you will find peace in knowing your pet had been properly cared for."NReview by Neal

She also pointed out a few helpful things about my cats behavior. I would recommend Jaimi-Leigh if you're looking for someone to take care of your pets!"

"Laurence est une personne fiable qui communique bien et rapidement. Elle a su rapidement gagner la confiance de mon petit chat Coco parfois peureux. Elle m’envoie des mises à jour et des photos de Coco pendant mes absences, ce qui me rassure beaucoup! Elle est manifestement une amoureuse des animaux, et je pars en toute quiétude sachant que Coco est confié à ses bons soins. Merci Laurence! "
