"We've had Claire stay at our home to watch our two fluffs numerous times, and will only be coming to her as a trusted home and pet sitter! Our cats have a complicated schedule with medications, feedings and more, and Claire always comes prepared and goes above and beyond to make sure our cats feel comfortable while we're away! Claire also helped us water our plants and bring in our mail, which we are so grateful for. The house is always clean and tidy when we return, and our cats are happier than ever - we can really tell that she truly takes great care of them. Thanks again Claire :) "

"Michelle was absolutely amazing with my two small dogs. My one dog has behaviour issues and she was understanding and great with him! Michelle sent updates throughout the trip as I was anxious to leave the dogs with someone new. Michelle left my place tidy as well. I will definitely reach out to Michelle again when I go away and need dog sitters again! "

"Dana took wonderful care of my cats. She was responsive, communicative, and respectful. She was also willing to look after my garden. Both the cats and the garden needed specific TLC and she followed through spectacularly. "

"Orla is an absolute gem, and I would without a doubt book her again to look after my senior cat. She administered meds, kept her company, followed my laundry list of instructions and stayed in touch while I was away for a week. Our meet and greet was stellar, my week away I didn't have a single worry, and I can home to a very happy 17 year old kitty cat. "

"Ilayda was a dream cat and house sitter- I’m so glad we found her! In April 2024, She stayed in our home for four nights to look after our cat, who has some issues with anxiety, and took stellar care of him and our place. I was comfortable with Ilayda from the first time we met. She is a kind, genuine, professional and responsible person who clearly loves pets and has a lot of experience looking after cats of all kinds - especially given her background looking after street cats in Turkey. She is a wonderful communicator too. I trust her implicitly and highly recommend her services. "

"Tiana is so great. She stayed at my home watching my 2 cats for 10 days (overnights) while I was on vacation. She did a great job taking care of the cats, one of which has special food requirements and a second cat we adopted with PTSD issues. She handled both issues easily. You can tell she loves animals and even got the cat that's scared of everyone to sit with her and eat out of her hand. I got video and text updates while traveling (thank you) and she left the place spotless. Tiana feels like a new honorary member of our family (!) and it's comforting to know there's someone you can trust completely to care of your home and animals. I would definitely recommend her - I can't imagine a better pet-sitting experience and I'd be happy to provide her with a reference if needed. "

"Alena was an amazing house/cat sitter for our elder cat who has multiple medication needs. She provided constant updates and got the cat to take all her medications – a feat worthy of an extra star if possible! Our house was well cared for and more importantly, our cat was happy and healthy while we were away. Thank you Alena!"

"Rebecca recently looked after my pup for a week. This was my first time booking a pet sitter and I was beyond anxious about having a stranger in my home caring for my 14 year old pup while out of the country. Rebecca immediately eased that anxiety the moment we interacted. She has such a calm, caring and compassionate demeanour and embodies all the qualities you’d want someone watching your pet to have. She asks all the right questions to ensure she knows all she needs to care for your pet. She sent me photos and videos while I was away to assure me that all was well. She’s reliable and flexible with changing schedules. The fact that she made herself available on a holiday (thanksgiving) was so appreciated. She also took great care of my home and I left my place spotless. She went above and beyond what was expected of her and I’m incredibly thankful for how well she cared for Chase while away. Don’t hesitate to book with Rebecca. You won’t regret it! I certainly plan to book her again as I plan for a vacation!"

"I highly recommend Jane for your pet sitting needs. She is thorough, provides timely updates, was very organized and most importantly took really good care of our cat! Our cat can be a bit of a scaredy cat, but Jane found ways to engage him and win him over. She's an awesome person and feel very lucky to have found her when we needed a pet sitter. "

"Julie used to take care of my senior cat Caesar and when he passed away and I got a new rescue cat Grace, I naturally continued with her services. It's great that she will come to stay at my house so I know Grace has the amount of attention she is used to having, in her own home. From the pictures that Julie sends and from her notes, I know that Grace is in good hands and I can have a worry-free vacation."

Why house sitting ?

Are you going away but have a pet that prefers to stay in their own environment? Or perhaps you have a range of different animals and it’s not practical for you to organise for them to stay in different places? Then you might want to consider finding a Pawshake house sitter to come and stay at your The Danforth home while you are away.

House sitting is a convenient and affordable option when you have multiple pets and also want your house to be securely looked after while you are away. Many of our pet sitters have very reasonable house sitting rates because they enjoy staying and exploring different local neighbourhoods like The Danforth.

At Pawshake, we understand that trusting your home to a stranger can be a little daunting. So we’ve done all the hard work to ensure that your Pawshake house sitter is trustworthy and reliable. All our pet sitter profiles are checked individually by our dedicated trust and safety team and some house sitters also have their own police checks which they can share with you.

The best thing about engaging a Pawshake verified house sitter is that you can relax knowing that on top of being covered by The Pawshake Guarantee which includes veterinary coverage, so your pets are being cared for in a familiar environment and your The Danforth home is also being looked after as well.

In addition to looking after your pets, most of our house sitters will happily help you by collecting your mail, taking out the bins, and watering your plants. Just make sure you discuss all your requirements with your chosen house sitter prior to booking.

Pet owners book house sitting in The Danforth on Pawshake. Over 1431 pet owners in The Danforth have left a review, with an average of 4.97/5. All paid safely using Visa, Mastercard, American Express
