Top cities for cat sitting in United Kingdom

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 York Pawshake cat feeder or carer can help. Our York 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 York 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 23-year-old master’s student living in York, and I’d love to welcome your furry friend into my life through dog boarding and walking services. Growing up in a home filled with the joy (and fur!) of dogs, I’ve been surrounded by them ever since I could walk. Dogs aren’t just pets in my family — they’re part of who we are. I’ve personally cared for three out of the four dogs my family has had over the years, and those experiences have shaped my deep love and understanding of animals.
Whether it’s a playful pup or a wise, older dog needing a bit more rest and comfort, I’ve had hands-on experience with both, and I can confidently say: your dog will be treated with the same care, love, and attention I’d give my own. I don’t just see this as a service — I genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs, playing with them, going for walks, and yes, giving them all the cuddles they want! I have experience from my previous year of dog sitting and walking, and my clients have ranged from cute little cocker spaniel pups to middle aged and older flat coat retrievers, indies, Burmese mountain, corgis and many more. 
I currently live in a student dorm at Wentworth College on Campus West. My accommodation is on the third floor with no elevators, however the open grounds are right behind my dorm making it a perfect spot for daily walks, sniffing adventures, and some good off leashes exercise.
As a student, I do have to attend lectures, but my schedule is very flexible. On any given day, I’m never away from home for more than 3-4 hours. So if your dog is comfortable with a short solo nap while I’m out, we’re already a great match!
I welcome dogs of all breeds and sizes — small, medium, or large — though I will only board one dog at a time to ensure your pet gets my full attention and care. For health and safety reasons, I kindly ask that dogs be vaccinated and neutered. Your pet’s well-being is my top priority.
So, whether you need someone to take your dog out for a refreshing walk or to provide a loving home while you're away, I’m here to help. Let’s chat, get to know each other, and make sure your dog feels right at home with me.
Looking forward to meeting you and your four-legged companion soon! 

Warm woofs,
Zeenat

Hi,
I'm currently a second year student at the University of York studying psychology. 
Although I don't necessarily have experience pet setting professionally, I have a dog back at home and I'm well versed with all the daily chores, and can also help with things such as bathing your dog, cleaning their ears, brushing teeth, etc. I only have experience with dogs, however, and would not be able to help out with cats or other animals. 
I would be more than happy to help out with dog walks, or pet sitting at your home; I just can't do pet sitting over at my accommodation, because pets sadly aren't allowed.
Because I'm currently quite far from home, I'd love to be able to take care of a dog and treat him/her as mine. You can be sure I'll take care of your dog with love, yet still be responsible and dedicated to the task at hand.
Thank you! 

An academic historian/museum professional based in York. I got my love of cats from my mum and have had cats for 20 years now - first, three beautiful rescues at my parents house, and now my own little calico sweetheart, Frida (aka Fifi) and pocket rocket black cat, Lilith (aka Lili). I live with my partner so he can look after our little one while I look after yours.

I love to sit and cuddle, groom and play with your little ones. I am more than happy to tailor my time to what your cats like doing - even offering the occasional treat, if allowed! I’d love to keep you updated with photos and videos if that would give peace of mind.

I will always make sure the space is cleared (including full litter tray changes if required), their food bowls are clean and water is changed. I can also collect any post, do morning/evening curtain and blind opening, and make sure your house plants are kept alive 🪴

I am highly proficient at giving syringe/tablet oral medications and eye drops (thanks to years with cats with various ailments), and have done injections in the past. If you have a preferred way of doing their injections, I am all too happy to learn.

I work from home 3/4 out of 5 days (the other 1/2 days I’ll be in Leeds, so not too far away). I also have a car/license, so can readily get to your location.

If you require overnight stays, I will need access to WiFi (for work purposes), would appreciate information on what amenities are available (including towels/bedding/tea and coffee) so I know what to bring with me, and access to parking.

I've been around animals my whole life, from cats and dogs all the way to horses and chickens. I absolutely love animals, especially my own dog. I am a university student and currently living away from home and I thought looking after and spending time with other dogs would make me miss my best friend a bit less. I love walking and it ends up being the best part of my day, adding a peaceful time to get away and focus on something that really matters! I think animals are one of life's most precious things and we are lucky to have them.
I have had my dog for 3 years now. I have experience with larger dogs, nervous dogs and even lead pullers. All is welcome as often they don't mean it :). I have often looked after and walked other dogs around my area!

I have also had a cat and had experience looking my friends and family's pets. 
Im happy to walk, feed and provide company to all animals and would be a pleasure to do so. 

Hi, I’m Garry, a reliable and friendly dog walker and pet carer. I love spending time outdoors and giving dogs a safe, happy, and enjoyable walk. I tailor each walk to your dog’s needs, whether they enjoy a leisurely stroll, a more energetic adventure, or some gentle play along the way.

I have hands-on experience with my own 7-year-old Cockapoo, which has taught me patience, understanding, and how to read a dog’s moods. I’m comfortable working with a wide range of breeds and temperaments, including shy, nervous dogs, energetic or high-energy breeds, and smaller dogs that need careful handling. I also have experience with dogs who are reactive on walks and can provide gentle guidance and reassurance to keep them calm and safe.

I walk dogs in local parks, trails, and safe neighbourhood routes, and can tailor walks to your dog’s fitness and preferences. In addition to walking, I can provide home visits, drop-ins, feeding, playtime, and basic grooming attention. I’m also trained to handle minor emergencies, carry water and first aid if needed, and ensure every dog is comfortable and secure.

Rates start at £13 for a 30-minute walk. I always recommend a short meet-and-greet first so your dog can get to know me and feel at ease. I look forward to meeting you and your furry friend!
