"This is the first time I booked a cat sitter & I was a little stressed about it to be honest, but Sarah’s genuine & friendly personality put me at ease and, and I was very happy with Sarah’s level of care. She is an excellent and reliable cat sitter. Her daily communication was 10/10, she went above and beyond, and she met my kitties where they were at and respected their boundaries. They were very happy and relaxed when I returned. I highly recommend her services! "

"Jarvis was an excellent cat sitter! He was attentive, reliable, and clearly very experienced with cats. He followed all care instructions carefully and kept me updated with regular messages and photos, which gave me great peace of mind while I was away. My cats were happy, calm, and well cared for when I returned. I would highly recommend Jarvis to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring cat sitter!"

"Kristen is a fantastic cat sitter! I left my cat, Ella, in her care for six days, and I couldn't have asked for a better experience. Kristen was attentive and thoughtful, providing regular updates and photos showing how Ella was gradually warming up to her. What impressed me most was how quickly Kristen built trust with Ella, who can be shy with new people. At the start of the visits, Ella was cautious and stayed under the bed, but Kristen patiently gained her trust with treats and gentle interactions. By the end of the week, Ella was confidently approaching Kristen, rubbing against her hand, and even sitting nearby while eating—clear signs that Kristen made her feel safe and comfortable. Kristen's updates were detailed and reassuring, highlighting the progress in their bond each day. It was heartwarming to see Ella so relaxed and happy. Kristen also showed great attention to detail and care for my home. She ensured Ella was well-fed and that her space was clean and comfortable. When she realized she had left one of Ella’s dishes soaking in the sink, she promptly let me know and apologized—a small but meaningful sign of her professionalism. I highly recommend Kristen to anyone looking for a reliable, compassionate, and skilled cat sitter. Ella and I are so grateful for her care, and I wouldn’t hesitate to book her again!"

"Helena’s care for my cat gave me such peace of mind. She went above and beyond when the cat became unwell, communicating clearly and taking excellent care. I was beyond thankful to have Helena. She’s the best. I will not hesitate to book her again, and my cat will be thrilled! "

"Karina was excellent, my cat took to her immediately and showed up for most visits during my absence (which is no guarantee). I got lots of communication and updates, some playtime and cuddling included. Upon my return, I found my cat well-fed and in a good mood. I will book Karina again and can recommend her."

"Colin looked after our two cats for several days, and we couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. He truly has a gift with cats—our shyest one, who usually hides from visitors, quickly warmed up to him and came out of her shell. Each day, Colin sent us thoughtful updates with photos, which gave us such peace of mind while we were away. The cats clearly enjoyed his visits and had a great time playing with their toys. Even before the sit, Colin impressed us by asking excellent questions and taking careful notes to make sure everything would go smoothly. We can’t recommend him highly enough!"

"Briana took amazing care of my bunnies! She was so gentle and sweet with them, and I know they appreciated her care because I came home to two happy bunnies instead of grumpy ones (I don't even think they cared that I left lol)! Everything about this booking was easy and seamless and flexible, from communication to key drop off to actual pet care, and it helped reduce my anxiety about leaving my bunnies for the weekend. Thank you so much! 🐰🐰 "

Why pet sitting ?

When you have to go away or work long hours, you may worry about leaving your pet home alone. Have you ever wondered “Is there a pet or dog sitter in Highwood that can help?”.

Luckily, with Pawshake, you can easily find local and trusted pet and dog carers from Highwood to provide drop in visits and other services. This means a pet sitter will come and visit your pet at a time you both agree on and provide lots of love and personal attention. This can include playtime in the backyard, a walk to the local park, or just some cuddle time. Our pet carers can also administer medication, give food, and refresh the water bowl.

In home pet sitting services are a great way to break up the day and enrich it for your pet. Pawshake pet sitters have extensive experience caring for a range of pets including dogs, cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, birds and more. If you have multiple pets, home visits are a great option to ensure that they all get a visit and lots of attention during the day.

Drop in visits are the least stressful option for your pet because your pet can stay in their favourite environment – their own home in Highwood. Their surroundings will be familiar and our loving and passionate Pawshake sitter will spoil them each day. Our sitters will treat your home with respect and are flexible with timing, requests and durations. All this can be discussed before you make a home visit booking.

Pet boarding is a great option for when you are away for a few days and your pet needs overnight care. Unlike pet hotels, Pawshake pet boarding allows you to arrange a personalised daily routine for your pet, whether this be extra belly rubs, playtime or 24 hour supervision. Your pet will stay with the pet sitter in a cosy home environment, rather than a large, impersonal pet hotel.

So whether you need just one day, a week or even a month, you’ll be able to find an experienced pet or dog carer to accommodate you and your pet’s needs in Highwood. The best part is that your Pawshake pet sitter is from your local neighbourhood, so they will be familiar with the area.

Our pet carers also have a range of experiences which include puppies, seniors, nervous pets and dog training. So if your pet has special requirements, you’ll be sure to find a pet sitter that is a good match for you.

Your pet’s safety and welfare is a big priority for us, which is why all of our Pawshake pet sitters undergo a strict vetting process by our trust and safety team. At Pawshake, we understand that you might feel a little uneasy allowing a pet sitter to enter your home or arranging pet boarding at their place. This is why Pawshake pet sitters also have reviews from other pet parents that are publicly available on their profile for you to read.

Each pet sitting home visit and pet boarding booking made through Pawshake is covered by the Pawshake Guarantee, which includes veterinary coverage, customer support 7 days a week and more. Rest easy knowing that your pets will be well looked after by one of our expert pet carers in Highwood.

Pet owners book pet sitting in Highwood on Pawshake. Over 1679 pet owners in Highwood have left a review, with an average of 4.94/5. All paid safely using Visa, Mastercard, American Express
