Student veterinary nurse who loves animals
Hi, my name is Sofie and I am a student veterinary nurse with hands on experience caring for all animals. I am from Norway and is studying here is the UK to have a better degree caring for animals. Growing up with cats and dogs thought me handling and keep routines consistent. My training has given me practical skills in safe handling, first aid, administering medication and wound care . I offer daily walks, feeding, grooming, nail clips, overnight stay and detailed updates with pictures.&nbsp;

My experience&nbsp;
- Comfortable with all life stages including puppies, adult dogs and seniors with a range of temperatures
- Experience caring for pets with certain needs and able to follow detailed care plans and vet instructions.&nbsp;
- Focus on positive reinforcement, consistency, routine to reduce stress and encourage good behaviour&nbsp;
- Calm and patient, I prioritise safety for your animal, your home and myself&nbsp;


Hi, I’m Beth, a 23-year-old final-year Veterinary Nursing student at Hartpury University in Gloucester.

I’m fully insured and have several years of experience caring for pets through dog sitting and pet care platforms, as well as private clients. I’ve looked after a wide range of animals with different needs, personalities, and routines.

As a student veterinary nurse, I’m confident handling pets with medical requirements and can safely administer both oral and injectable medications. This means you can have extra peace of mind knowing your pet is in knowledgeable and capable hands.

I understand how important it is to leave your pet with someone you trust, and I always aim to provide calm, loving, and reliable care tailored to each individual animal.

Services I offer:
 Home visits &amp; house sitting
 Dog walking &amp; playtime
 Feeding &amp; fresh water
 Medication administration (oral &amp; injectable)
 Regular photo and message updates
 Plenty of cuddles, attention, and companionship

My goal is simple to make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and loved while you’re away.

If you have any questions or would like to chat about your pet’s needs, feel free to get in touch, I’d love to help!

I love dogs from a very young age, and I always had them at home. Last year, unfortunately, my two Golden retrievers died. They were 15! So I know they had a happy and long life. And I miss them a lot.
I remember one of my favourite things to do it was going on a walk with them and just have a peaceful and enjoyable moment. And I know they enjoy it too. I want to have that moment again. And Pawshake is a good place for it.&nbsp;
A plus about me is that back home, I study veterinary nurse, although I am not working in that area, I have some past experience with animals . And I did love that experience.
What to expect from me? I like to be on time, I would care for your pet like mine.I like to update you with pictures, and I am quick answering.&nbsp;&nbsp;
I am a friendly and very enthusiastic person and I get super excited when I meet new dogs. So walk them it will be an amazing experience for me.&nbsp;



I’ve grown up surrounded by both cats and dogs, and animals have always been a natural part of my life. I currently share my home with a middle‑aged Anatolian Shepherd mix — a rescue from Turkey — who has her own history of trauma. Because of her journey, I’ve gained hands‑on experience supporting dogs who need patience, gentleness, and a slower pace to feel safe.
My partner and I have been dog sitting/bording for over 3 and half years and we absolutely love it!
I always go at each dog’s pace. My priority is creating a calm, reassuring environment where they feel secure, understood, and cared for. For this reason, and out of respect for my own rescue’s needs, I do not take on puppies.
My partner and I have been using Rover (similar to Pawshake) for over four years, and it’s given us a wealth of experience caring for dogs of all personalities and needs. Everything we’ve learned along the way is something I bring forward when looking after your furry family member.
What a Day of Dog Boarding Looks Like - 
Hearty nature walks in quiet, open spaces
Playtime in the garden with plenty of enrichment
Mind‑stimulating games using tasty treats
A relaxed, home‑from‑home environment where dogs can settle comfortably

Dogs are welcome throughout the house, but at night we ask owners if they’re happy for their dog to sleep downstairs. Toilet‑trained dogs are preferred, though I understand that accidents can happen — especially with nervous or newly rehomed pups.

Because of my own dog’s trauma, we typically travel by car to fields or parks for walks. If your dog prefers road walks or doesn’t get along with cats, either myself or my partner will take them out separately to ensure everyone stays safe and comfortable.

Your dog may need to be on their own for short periods — usually around 1–2 hours — for everyday things like popping out to the shops or running quick errands. I always plan these moments carefully and keep them as minimal as possible.

I also understand that every dog is different, so this is something we can discuss together before the booking. I’m more than happy to tailor everything to your dog’s routine, comfort level, and any specific needs they may have. Their wellbeing always comes first.

Your dog will be treated with patience, kindness, and respect — the same way I care for my own.

My name is Ayaana, which means beautiful flower and innocence.
Caring for dogs brings me immense joy and fulfilment, as their loyalty and energy create an enriching bond. I have experience across several areas:


Walk dogs daily, adjusting routes and pace to suit their energy and temperament.
Feed and hydrate them, paying careful attention to dietary needs and routines.
Bathe and brush coats to keep dogs clean, healthy, and comfortable.
Play and exercise with activities such as fetch, tug-of-war, and park runs.
Provide emotional care by maintaining routines and offering affection to build trust and security.


I recently made a bold move from Toronto, Ontario, to the United Kingdom in search of new opportunities and experiences. I left my beloved German shepherd-border collie mix, Sukhi, in my mother’s care back home. I miss my furry friend dearly, but I look forward to meeting new dogs and their owners in our lively, welcoming community.
Alongside my animal care experience, I hold an honours bachelor's degree in human rights and human diversity from Wilfrid Laurier University in Ontario, Canada, where I graduated with distinction, and a Master of Laws (LL.M) specialising in human rights law from Cardiff University in the United Kingdom. I am currently preparing for the Solicitors Qualifying Examination (SQE) to strengthen my legal credentials and pursue a career as a solicitor.

Caring for dogs not only enriches my life but also helps me engage with my local community, creating connections with fellow dog lovers and contributing to a warm, inclusive environment.

Furry Regards,
Ayaana


I am a friendly and reliable dog lover. I have grown up taking care of loads of dogs and pets. I love long walks and cosy cuddles. I have been walking and pet sitting dogs in the area for the last 3 years with only the best reviews! I love animals and miss mine the most back at home (don't tell my family that ) I would love to have my own but unfortunately I am currently unable to :(. Realistically you will be doing me a favour as much as I will for you, because I am in need a good dog fix. I can offer references where needed! I look after humans who are very unwell during the day, working in the hospital. So I am very trustworthy and caring and I think it is equally as important that our gorgeous fluffy friends get the best of care too . I give the best tummy scratches and I always make sure dinner is served on time! Let me know how I can help, I am mainly free weekdays after 4:30 and weekends .

How we work
We are experienced in looking after high end houses that are the owner’s pride and joy and pets that are highly treasured furry family members . We are both non smokers, have Enhanced DBS checks that are updated annually and excellent 5 star references from house sits that we have completed over the last 6 years. We will happily provide this information for you.&nbsp;
Our aim is for your dogs and cats to have a fun and happy time and to be well cared for until you, their parents, return. We obviously can’t be you (their preferred carer) but we can keep their routines, mealtimes, exercise and playtime as normal as possible. We love to spend time with pets outside walking, running around or inside snuggled up in the lounge together.&nbsp;
With 6 years of housesitting experience we are very used to looking after precious furry companions and the beautiful homes they live in, as if they were our own. We are very familiar with using and looking after AGAS (and know that spillages are not desirable on the top or inside the AGA, so we are very careful). We are comfortable using and looking after wood burning stoves too, something we are often asked.&nbsp;
We are early risers so that first trip out into the garden will happen between 6.30am and 8am. We like to walk outside in the garden with pets several times a day so that they have some company, if they want it, and at the same time we get some fresh air whatever the weather, though all sitting out in the sunshine for an early morning coffee is wonderful on sunny days, for all concerned!&nbsp;&nbsp;
Making ourselves and our fur friends scarce so cleaning teams can do their work each week has been part of Housesitting for us. As is being available for gardeners, swimming pool maintenance operatives and other outside contractors that might need access or information. We are used to checking many exits before leaving the premises, and at night, and are diligent about using house alarms as instructed. We are detail people so love a good set of instructions from you and will follow those instructions to the best of ourability.&nbsp;
We are clean and tidy people, always use coasters and table mats and wear slippers in the house. We will always try hard to follow your instructions as to where your pets are allowed to go and not go and what they are allowed to sit or climb on and what they are allowed to eat. We pride ourselves in properties being as clean and tidy when their owners return home as when they left. We offer to strip the bed and wash our bedding and towels before leaving so you do not have extra work to do on your return, if you would like us to.&nbsp;&nbsp;
We are used to looking after dogs that are trained to bark in order to guard their estate audibly and try our very best to keep them away from delivery couriers and others contractors coming to their home. We have become skilled at sensitively trying to avoid other people and dogs when we are out and about when that is a requirement. We also look after very socialised dogs and will endeavour to follow your instructions carefully about how they should interact with people, children and other dogs whilst out.
Many of the properties where we work have large grounds or several acres for us all to walk round several times a day. However, we are aware of the importance of sniffing the scent that other dogs leave behind so we try and prioritise going for walks offsite. 
Our aim is for both of us to be with the pets in our care for as much of the time as possible. If we ever both need to go out we will let you know when we leave and when we return. Going out without the pets is always kept to a minimum during out house sits.&nbsp;
We like to meet you and your pets either personally or on Zoom so we can all establish if we are a good fit to work together before making a booking (although we are happy to pencil in a date prior to themeeting).&nbsp;&nbsp;
&nbsp;
Communication and Daily Updates 
We are good at responding quickly to any communication from our clients before, during and after our House sits. If we are unsure of, or concerned about anything regarding the care of your pets, your home or thecontents we will ask immediately.&nbsp;&nbsp;
Over the years our clients have loved getting photo updates (and occasional short videos) via WhatsApp so they can see that their furry family members are well and having fun. I do always say ‘if you want less photosperhaps once a day do let me know’, no one has requested this yet but that would be fine too.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;

If Things Go Wrong 
Sometimes unexpected things go wrong. We have had to deal with several difficult situations over the years and immediately called the homeowner for them to instruct us as to what they would like us to do. The main electrical gates to an estate broke down in the closed position and we managed to safely override the mechanism so that we could open them manually. On another occasion a bird flew into an antique glass window and smashed the pane which we boarded up then liased with the Glazier regarding successful replacement of the glass. Also at another housesit a catch on an old external door failed which meant the door could not be opened. We managed to fix it avoiding the need to call out an emergency locksmith. Another example was when a very old alarm sensor failed and we managed to liase directly with the alarm company to disable it whilst on the phone using the alarm panel (this meant the rest of the house could remain securely alarmed until that sensor was replaced). Lastly a boiler started leaking 2 weeks before it was due to be replaced. We liased with the heating engineer then managed to control the water leakage using large old towels to protect the limestone floor. On our next visit we enjoyed the brand new boiler! 
&nbsp;
Our Background 
We married in 1993 and have lived in a period cottage in Cheltenham for 17 years. Justin is now semi-retired having been a Managing Director of several international businesses. He is now an online Coach and Mentor and an Exam Invigilator at a local Grammar School. Rachel originally trained and worked as a Registered General Nurse in London and has had several part time jobs over the years whilst bringing up our 2 sons, including setting up her own Aerobics classes in a local Sports Hall, as a Mystery Shopper and running a Promotional Merchandise Company. She began retraining in 2017 to be a Counsellor /Therapist and is now a member of the British Association of Counselling and Psychotherapy. . Rachel works as a part time Zoom Counsellor working from home but has lots of breaks between clients for walks and cuddles (with your pets, not Justin!)&nbsp;
We started housesitting through a site in 2018 and have thoroughly enjoyed looking after pets and homes all over the UK and Europe (our profile photo was taken in Porto when looking after Ollie the cat who we have looked after over the last 6 years in London and Porto). We are proud to have been invited back to housesit for every housesitting job we have undertaken.&nbsp;
Soon after commencing Housesitting we realised we loved spending all of our time with the pets in our care and were going out alone very little which is why we decided to start our own Premium House and Petcare business and dedicate our time to being with the pets in our care.&nbsp;&nbsp;
Throughout our lives we have had our own dogs, cats, hamsters, fish, giant African Land Snails, stick insects, rabbits and guinea pigs. Since House Sitting we have mainly chosen to look after dogs and cats (althoughseveral properties have had outside fishponds stocked with lots of fish too). We love Housesitting and returning time and time again to a wonderful welcome from the beautiful pets we look after.&nbsp;&nbsp;
Hobbies 
Whilst Housesitting we enjoy being able to relax in the evenings with our furry friends and love to be all together watching Netflix, Prime or Discovery (don't worry we have our own accounts so won’t upset your algorithms! ). We enjoy cooking and maybe having a glass of wine in the evenings too. (We have discuovered that dauphinoise potates cooked in the AGA are so amazing). We are very happy to have pets on our laps if they want a cuddle but won’t force that if they would rather be somewhere else nearby.&nbsp;&nbsp;
When we are not Housesitting we often go away in our Motorhome and have visited many places in the UK and Europe over the years. We enjoy concerts of all kinds especially Jazz, 80s Pop and Classical. Goingto the theatre to see plays, musicals or comedy and going out for meals are all things we like to do between jobs. We also like to visit Art Galleries, Museums, Stately Homes and Palaces. However our favourite pastime is to meet up with our sons in London or Cheltenham and be together as a family. When we are all at home we love attending the Cheltenham Festivals, going to the Races and all that Cheltenham has to offer.&nbsp;
Why Do We Want To Housesit?
We love animals but we are unable to have our own pets due to our hobbies and the amount of time we are away from home in places that any pets would be unable to join us. This leaves a fur shaped hole in our lives and so we have lots of love and attention to give to the fur friends that we look after. Whilst housesitting we have lots of time to play, cuddle, talk to and run around with the pets in our care. In short we love it and the time we invest means that they love it too. All the clients we have worked with have said words to the effect of ' we can see in the photos how much fun they are having and how happy they look and when we get home they seemed so happy and relaxed like they have had a holiday too!'

Experienced, knowledgeable animal lover available to help with your pets. Brought up with a menagerie of animals from hamsters to horses! Growing up we had large family dogs, think a Golden Retriever and then later Weimaraners x4 and a PBGV (but not all at once!). We also had guinea pigs for most of my teenage years and a couple of ponies/horses. At university I branched out and had 2 dumbo rats - my parents were thrilled when I moved back home with them!
Currently a faithful servant to two spoilt cats, as my working hours are better suited to cat care than to being able to look after a dog properly. Finances won't stretch to a horse of my own yet  but never say never!
Due to work commitments my availability is either early mornings (before 8:30am) and evenings after 6pm. I love all animals and am happy to carry out any aspect of animal husbandry the good, the bad and the ugly!
Can offer pet visits from 30mins to an hour to include, feeding, clearing letter trays etc and playing with the pet. Dog walking minimum of 30 mins maximum of an hour. All breeds welcome, secure field can be booked to allow off lead time if required (at owners expense). 
Adaptable in my approach depending on pets requirements. Patient and calm to win trust of nervous animals. Extremely diligent, will do exactly what I'm asked. Happy to quietly share space or to engage in games/training. 

I offer dog walks, playdates at a park for running or chasing balls/sticks, baths to keep them clean, or strict adherence to your care instructions. I can dog sit in your home as needed—just check my availability. Currently, looking for a dog sitting in your home to gain experience.
While new to Pawshake, I'm no novice: I've cared for my Staffordshire Bull Terrier Bella for 13 years (lost to cancer; photos on profile) and Chihuahua Poppy, plus cat Socks. This combo taught me to handle fights turning into bonds. I haven't experienced all breeds yet, but I'm eager to expand—it's been a struggle figuring out how, but this platform seems ideal. I am confident and passionate, I can bring TLC to your doggies; dogs are humanity's greatest gifts. Everyone starts somewhere, and with my slight lack of current dog ownership I'll offer lower rates (not below Pawshake's minimum) but can offer extra discounts for detailed reviews post-service for any booking’s.
I am willing to commute to you by e-bike at no extra charge, with a travel range of up to 4 miles from the relevant train station—as long as it's no further than the next station beyond Gloucester. This ensures prompt arrivals for those early morning walks, but I'm happy to discuss options if your location is a bit farther, especially if I am sitting in your home&nbsp;&nbsp;
Since moving to a shared flat 3 years ago (no pets allowed), I've missed that joy, especially Bella (RIP). My love for dogs drives me to provide the attention they deserve. I'm on Pawshake to gain experience toward starting my own Cheltenham-based company.


I want to be a dog sitter because I genuinely love spending time with dogs. They all have their own personalities, and I enjoy getting to know what makes each one happy, whether that’s long walks, playtime, or just relaxing together.&nbsp;
I’m responsible, patient, and caring, so I always make sure dogs feel safe, comfortable, and well looked after while their owners are away. I understand how important routines are, and I’m happy to stick to feeding, walking, and any special care they need.
I also have a dog called Lilo, and she’s super cute! Looking after her has taught me a lot about responsibility, attention, and understanding what dogs need. Because of this, I feel confident caring for other dogs too.&nbsp;
I’m available Monday to Friday for check-ins lasting up to an hour.&nbsp;
Being a dog sitter would be a fun and rewarding way for me to do something I enjoy while helping others feel at ease knowing their pets are in good hands.
