LI booked Agnes to look after my three cats while I was away for an 8-day vacation. She dropped in once a day to look after my cats. Her communication was awesome. I received daily updates, pics and videos of my cats. She fed them wet food and treats, brushed and cuddled them and even had play time with them. In addition, she cleaned the litter boxes daily, checked the mail and put out the garbage and it appears that she also swept because my house was spotless when I returned home. I was so happy with the care she provided. My scaredy-cat who always hides when anyone new visits, was out from hiding, eating Churu treats right from the tube, accepting brushing and engaging in the daily playtime. This is truly amazing. I highly recommend Agnes to look after your pets. I have had other pet sitters that I considered to be great but Agnes truly goes above and beyond and I will definitely be booking her for my next vacation. Thanks again Agnes for all the care you provided. It gave me peace of mind to know that my cats were being well taken care of and allowed me to fully enjoy my vacation time.

KVivian was one of the best pet sitters we have ever had. We were worried at first as we have a few diverse pets in the home (parrot, fish and reptiles) and were nervous about finding a pet sitter that could handle them all, but Vivian was up to the task. She listened intently to what each pets needs were and cared for each of them perfectly. We received daily updates and our minds were so settled knowing our small companions were well taken care of. We truly felt Vivian cared for our pets and she spent time to get to know each of them and played with them each time she visited.
We couldn’t be happier! Thanks Vivian!!

When you book our pet sitting services, an experienced pet sitter will visit your home and spend some one-on-one time with your pet.
Pet sitting is the perfect option for pets who prefer staying in their own home environment and would like some company during the day. This means your pet gets to enjoy high quality and personalised care that is better than pet hotels.
Pawshake only accepts pet and dog sitters who have experience and/or qualifications caring for pets. You can search, choose and have a free meet and greet with your pet sitter or dog minder prior to making a booking.
