Many cat owners will understand that cats can be fussy and prefer their own home environment rather than an unfamiliar place like a cattery or cat hotel. Although some cats can adapt to cat boarding if they have to, most cats become stressed when transported somewhere new.

This is where a friendly Barking Pawshake cat feeder or carer can help. Our Barking cat sitting expert can come and visit your cat while you are away on holiday or at work. A cat sitter can even stay overnight if required, which is far less stressful than sending your feline friend to a cattery for cat boarding. Whether you just need a sitter for a couple of hours or someone to visit each day for a week, our Barking cat sitters can tailor their service to suit you and please even the fussiest kitty.

Although most cats are independent, having a cat carer visit has a lot of benefits. Your chosen Pawshake cat sitter can feed, freshen up the water bowl, tidy the litter tray, and spend quality time with your cat. And unlike a cattery or cat hotel, your cat can chill out in their own familiar space.

Finally, every booking with Pawshake is with a verified carer and includes the Pawshake Guarantee and veterinary coverage, so you have nothing to worry about when it comes to your feline companion!

I’m a young woman working in the corporate world but am looking to work with pets such as dogs and cats, who I not only love but have significant experience with. I have grown up with a household of full of dogs and cats and learned from a young age the importance of ensuring they are loved, taken out regularly for exercise and have someone who can spend time with them. Unfortunately I am unable to have pets myself currently but would love to give back and take care of others’ pets when it may not be possible for them to do so. 

My experience includes housesitting family pets and those of family friends, when they are travelling, taking dogs on walks (both short walks and long walks) and having play time with cats and dogs both when necessary. I also have experience working with dogs of all sizes (this includes Bulldogs, German Shepherds, Jack Russell Terriers and more) as well as cats (including both outgoing and shy). I will be there to give them whatever they require to ensure they remain happy and that they never feel stressed in any scenario. I am also comfortable administering medication if required (please be sure to discuss this with me first though) and taking care of special needs pets if needed. 

My times available include weekends from 11am to 5pm for dog walking services. For any drop-in visits, I am free after work from 6pm onwards to come to your home and spend time with your pets. With regards to dog walking, I am open to both short and long term walks and can support a maximum of 2 whilst on said walks. This is to ensure I provide them with the safest environment possible. For home visits, I am happy to have visits up to 1-2 hours in length and if any small tasks need to be done, I must be informed beforehand.

Any questions, do let me know. Otherwise, I hope to be able to take good care of yours pets should you select me.

My pedigree,&nbsp;
I can feed an animal, that's a good point I guess.&nbsp;&nbsp;
Well I'm joking, but it's hard to talk about experiences when it's your own pets but I have got some exemple
1- growing with two howling huskies, I won't explain 14 years of life.&nbsp;
2 - My neighour had a black cat, Gupil, she gave her to my watch after gupil had her babies, cause she had a too ig family with very young kid that were not understanding how fragile was a kitten. So I kept the cat and babies for few weeks, maybe more, time for babies to learn life, get fed and goes to their forver familly
3- I took care of lulu, my friend's cat left alone after her mom died, he basically was living more like a street cat, but then starting to like my dog and became the house cat, until he died.&nbsp;
4 - Rescued an abandonned cat were I lived, poor boy was the only kitten left, nobody wanted oh him because he was sick, I took home with me.
5 - Kitten and mom hidding in garage , surviving on their own, I try to get the mommy like me so she gave me her baby to care about, wouldn't live the house anymore, she ended up almost living in my sofa and I kept one of her baby as well.

I have always loved animals, did horse riding, went to the mountains with my parents where they did Nordic dog races.&nbsp;
Many cats at home, I like them all, except spiders and snakes.&nbsp;
I like mouse, rats, hamster, guinea pigs, ferets, cameleon, lezards, birds, snails...&nbsp;
But one more time, I have never had experience so someone will just have to give it a try, and a hand to go ahead. I am not going to invent myself a life for 9 pound.&nbsp;


Hello, my name is Calvin and I am a person who loves animals, and hopes to create a strong bond with your lovely pet.&nbsp;
I currently offer dog walking, dog boarding and pet sitting services which I charge £10-£40 for.&nbsp;
I would love to look after/walk your pet because I have a passion for taking care of animals, at home my two gerbils Doughball and Doughnut have a lovely and playful environment, I always make sure they are fed well and given the appropriate enrichment activities to support their natural behaviours.&nbsp;
While at my Dad's house I also take care of his two cats Marley and Mittens, along with Dog sitting which I have done previously, which involved taking Lottie on two walks a day, making sure she was fed and had clean water, and calming her on fireworks night when it was loud outside.&nbsp;
My house is quite big with many rooms so your pet will have a lot of room, at home there is 5 people so your pet will have plenty of time to interact with many different types of personality. We have high fences in our garden to ensure your pet won't escape, I have gerbils and cats at my dad's house so usually shut doors if your dog comes to stay to avoid the gerbils being frightened. Outside there is lots of open space and local parks to walk your dog in, along with a medium sized garden that your dog can roam free in.I am not able to perform medical attention or injections on your pet but I am able to administer any medication your dog might require, for example tablets or dog medicines. I am also able to identify when a dog might be feeling ill/injured, which will ensure I act quickly to make sure your pet is not in any danger. I am able to groom/brush your dog and will give it treats while walking to encourage a bond between me and your pet.
Feel free to contact me if you require any services I offer.&nbsp;
Have a lovely day!!      


Need to care for your dogs or cats? No worries, I am here, just ping me. Who doesn't absolutely want to cuddle and play with cats n dogs all the time! They are simply too awesome!! 
Doggies are the highlights of my life and cats are just awesome and calming. Anyday i will choose to be with some cats n dogs and maximize and have more bliss and peace. 
I own a dog backhome and cared for him all my life. After a dog parent is a forever one. 
Being around animals will always be my highest joyful and enjoyable moments of my life. Now that i have time after studies, i want to learn more about dog sitting and walking. 
In future i plan to adopt more dogs n cats in my life, so i can learn more about joy giving and getting all that sunshine they have. If i have more doggies and catz in my life, i sure will be the happiest person on this earth and be blessed to raise, play and care for them. 
I have a German Shepherd at home, so i have experience on walking the dog for some 6+ years. 
Knowing i love animals, my aunt called me to care of the dog and play with the dog(a Labrador) while she attended evening events. I have done that for 4 years and half years, and enjoyed every day of taking care of the dog. 
Later, Me and best friend had joined community service for dogs to feed dogs weekly on the street. We enjoyed giving them dog food and biscuits. 
I regularly meet dogs and my friend has a cat while going to park in the morning and other times. I love to approach them and play with them
I came here for masters and i worked in a dog friendly restaurant where I would feel energetic when i met a dog on my way to taking and delivering orders on tables. 
Dogs or Cats, they are Just a Ball of Energy and Joy and unmatched Awesomeness Animals are awesome either ways, 

I am lucky enough to have grown up around all kinds of pets - dogs, cats, rabbits, lizards, parrots  and I am very passionate about making them feel as comfortable and happy as possible. I understand that each pet has different needs and personality. I have experience walking, bathing, cleaning littertrays, brushing, training etc.I live in Plaistow (near Stratford), East London and work full-time in central London on weekdays from 6am - 3pm. I am happy to do both drop-in visits and overnight visits on both weekdays and weekends. On an overnight visit on weekdays I would be with your pet while I am not at work and I am more than happy to bring mail/parcels in and water plants. On weekend overnights I am more flexible and could stay with your pet all day. With drop-in visits I like to be with the pet for at least 1 hour. Dog walks will also be at least 1 hour depending on the dog's needs of course.I will make your pet feel as comfortable as possible, for some pets It's important for them to stick to their routine as much as possible while their owner is away so I will go above and beyond to make this possible. I will give them as many cuddles as they want, play with them as much as they want and of course keep their space neat and tidy.

Hi my name is cansu, i live in east london but i can cover most areas in london. I absolutely love animals and although i never had the chance to have a dog before i adore them. I live a couple minutes away from Queen Elizabeth Park so theres a big playground for dogs right next to me!
 I myself own a cat and have been doing cat sitting for 3 yesrs! i have a special bond with every cat i meet and have done research on cat behaviours so i can almost understand cats! I have shown photos of most the cats i have looked after in the past couple years, so i do have experience with other cats which has made me enjoy being surrounded by cats and looking after them!
I can accommodate to your schedule so i am pretty much flexible with any dates/times 
the services i offer:
Taking your dog on a walk
daily feeding your cat
daily updates with pictures and videos
cleaning litter or any mess cat has made
play time if they're up for it
lots of cuddles and attention or just staying in company of them if thats what they prefer!
House/apartment will be locked up and secured after the sitting
Collecting mail and taking out the garbage (if required)
Each visit will last 20/30 minutes and will be free morning/afternoon or evenings but you can let me know if you would like to adjust the time.
please do not hesitate to contact me about any further questions you have or any adjustments that may need to be made, i would be very happy to look after you cat as if it were my own! I look foward to hearing from you and spendind time with the furry friend!

I am 35 yo and I have always loved animals. I had dogs in my childhood and I'm a happy mama of cats in my adult life.
I previously worked as a manager for a luxury shop &amp; grooming salon for cat &amp; dogs so definitely have some professional idea about looking after our furry sisters and brothers.
I have a wonderful cat of my own in London but can also provide references from some happy kitties that I am looking after from time to time. Even though I don't have my own dog at the moment, I have a bunch of experience in looking after dogs of my friends and family members.
My phone is full of cats' photos but please don't worry- I will add some more of yours with absolute pleasure!
We all know cats are amazing and the most amazing thing about them is their independence. That's why you can be sure that I will totally respect the character of your beloved one. If she/he is a cuddler- I will go allllll the way to hear that happy meow! If she/he is more of a shy type- I will take it easy to make her/him comfortable. 
When it comes to dogs, I will make sure that the young ones will get the fun and exercise that they need and the senior ones will get lovely slow walks and loads of LOVE.

Hi I'm Luke,
I'm 31, and live in the E16 area with my Fiance my newly born daughter and our lovely dog Pickle, a Welsh terrier.
I grew up with pets all around me. Dogs, cats, hamsters, fish. We had it all. I used to spend hours just playing with them and looking after them with my full attention. I loved caring for them and the affection they would give me as a result. That passion for pets has carried on into my adult life.
&nbsp;Pets are such a special part of our lives.I know how much your pet means to you, and that you want someone who is going to treat them with care and attentiveness. I can ensure that I'll listen carefully to your indivi needs for your pet, and make it my mission to keep them safe, happy and cared for.
I offer dog-walking and dog sitting. Cat sitting, any other petting sitting and maintenance. 
I have 15 years prior experience caring for pets.&nbsp;
Price can be negotiated depending on what you can afford. But generally I charge £15 per hour, or £95 for the whole day. If your pet needs looking after full time for the whole week I will generally charge £500. Again, can be negotiated.
Thanks for your time&nbsp;
Luke Harding

Hey, my name is Ayeisha and I am 21 from East London. I am a part time model but I also do dog sitting. I’ve been looking after my sisters dog which is a Cavapoochon named Zero ever since she got her and to be honest the more I dog sit, the more I fall in love with the role everyday. In my family we have had alot of animals such as cats, dogs and even a parrot since I was young so I’m used to being in that environment. 
For now I am NOT allowing any animals into my home because i don't have a lot of space but I am obviously open to dog sit and dog walk for my clients. 
Before dog sitting I used to have a cat where I would change her litter, feed her and also groom but she sadly passed away. My love for animals is unconditional. I feel like dog sitting is really fun because you get to spend time with the animal that you're looking after and not only that but it allows you to have an insight of what type of dog you want in the future.. I want a Great Dane. Friendly animals are the best! 
Thank you for taking the time to read and I hope to hear from you guys soon xo
