dogSitting

Individual passionate about animal care, comfortable with caring for a wide range of species including dogs, cats, small animals and aquatics. I have a diploma in Animal Management and Bachelor's in Animal Biology. These qualifications enable me to fully understand the welfare and care needs of a wide range of animals, including how to meet their needs to ensure my services are not only adequate but an enriching experience for the animal.
I am looking to pet sit as I enjoy spending spare time with a wide array of pets, including enjoying interacting with them and socialising with them in addition to carrying out husbandry tasks such as cleaning. 
I own a dog, cats and also a tropical fish tank currently and have experience caring for reptiles and amphibians also. Most pet owners have a unique bond with their pet, and have certain daily routines or tasks they like to carry out with them. This is something I would like to apply to their care needs so your pet would be able to feel comfortable in my care.

Hello there! I'm Hannah, 26 years old from New Zealand, currently residing in the UK. I'm passionate about the outdoors; during my free time, you can often find me hiking, cycling, or playing hockey . 

My upbringing included having a cat and a dog as family pets, experiences that nurtured a deep love and appreciation for the well-being of animals. Moving away from home and leaving my furry friends behind was truly saddening, but this platform now allows me to immerse myself in the joy of being around animals again!

As a pet sitter, I have the privilege of meeting various beautiful animals while providing owners with the flexibility and peace of mind that their beloved furry (or wooly) companions are receiving top-notch care. I see it as a win-win situation! You can count on me for being trustworthy, friendly, sensible, and reliable, and I would be delighted to take care of your animals. 

Services I offer:
- Dog walking 
- House sitting 
- Home visits 

I eagerly anticipate the chance to meet both owners and their beloved pets through Pawshake .

 **About Me: Lowell's Global Journey** 

Greetings! I'm Lowell, a semi-retired seasonal resident navigating life across England, Toronto and Hong Kong. Although my diverse lifestyle makes it challenging to have a pet of my own, my profound connection with animals has led me to pet sitting. Over 16 wonderful years, I've shared my life with an Afghan Hound, a golden retriever, and even a feline housemate.

 **What Drives Me: A Pet Lover’s Expedition** 

My pet sitting journey began in June 2023, fueled by a desire to explore different lifestyles across England. With over 10 completed sits across England, the happiness derived from caring for pets propels my passion.

 **Beyond Pet Sitting: A Glimpse into My World** 

In my previous life, I served as a Customer Service Manager in the Global Mobility Industry. However, I'm not all suits and ties—I'm also a seasonal scuba diving instructor. Beyond pet care, I find joy in walking, horse riding, watersports, and immersing myself in nature.

 **Devoted Pet Lover: Your Companion’s Best Friend** 

As a devoted pet lover and proud owner of an Afghan hound and a golden retriever, I bring a wealth of experience in canine care. From puppyhood to the golden years, I've nurtured these bonds through daily grooming and invigorating walks.

 **Tailored Care Approach: Personalized and Safe** 

Understanding that each pet is unique, I follow your guidelines rigorously. Safety is my priority; I gauge their readiness for interaction, engage in playful activities, and ensure walks are a joyous experience, always keeping them on a lead until trust is established.

 **Seniors Deserve Extra Love** 

Senior dogs hold a special place in my heart. With a keen awareness of their needs, I provide comfort, reassurance, and the companionship they deserve.

 **Passion Meets Flexibility: Your Pet's Ideal Sitter** 

As a semi-retired individual, pet sitting combines my lifelong passion for animals with a love for travel. With a flexible schedule, I'm here to ensure your pets feel cherished, and your home stays in pristine condition.

We have a secure transport van which can hold multiple dogs at one time. Your animal will sleep wherever they would usually at home, be that on their bed, on the sofa, on our bed or in their crate. We always aim to adhere to their standard routine as much as possible to avoid stress and change. Our home is a lived in home and it will mimic your own home environment.

Hello, I'm thrilled to introduce ourselves as dedicated and passionate pet sitters. Our motivation to be a pet sitter stems from a deep love and respect for animals.

We have attended various dog training courses over the years to help us train ourselves and our pet. After losing our dog recently, we would love to spend time with yours.

Hello, thank you for visiting my page. I have just signed up to Pawshake, I have been cat sitting for friends and family for years but as I now mostly work from home, I've decided to expand my catchment to help other families locally who need a sitter.I'm a life-long cat lover and I have two precious tabby cats and one black cat of my own. I know how much owners' absence can be of stress to a cat, they don't like change and often, new people, so I'll ensure that I will work within the cat's comfort level and make sure they are well looked after and pam-purred whilst you are away. I also have experience looking after rabbits and guinea pigs after having them as pets in the past.Feel free to ask any questions, look forward to meeting you and your pets!Feeding, water change and litter cleaning comes as standard. I am also willing, and if cats are willing, to play with your cats and spend some time giving them some affection. I can also administer prescriptions if required, but will need to be shown how best to do this for your cat in advance.I am happy to do any other jobs required like removing post or watering plants.

Hey my name is Ellie :) I am a huge animal lover! I've had dogs and all sorts of pets my whole life, I've also done dog grooming and dog walking. Whilst regularly watching friends and families dogs too. 
I have a couple of regulars that I watch now and again through a different app and have 5 star reviews! 
I am ideally looking to house sit and pet sit but can also do drop ins if close enough! I go on daily walks and love to take the dogs with me. 
I am looking to look after your pets in your own homes for peace of mind! Also happy doing days at a time and staying over. 
Please feel free to message with any further questions or requests. 
Some of my previous reviews below for ease of mind
'If I could give more than 5 stars I would. Ellie was absolutely brilliant and gave us such peace of mind. Zeke was extraordinarily taken with her, which in my books, speaks volumes.'
'Eleanor is the loveliest person ever and there isn't anyone else I want to leave my fur babes with other than her!!! We will deffo use again xxx'
'Absolutely amazing. Kept my mind at ease and she's soooo loveable'
'Eleanor regularly helps me out by walking my dog when I am unable to, she has also helped to groom my dog on occasions also and has done a lovely job. She is extremely trust worthy and always sends me lots of pictures and videos to keep me updated with how my little buddy is doing! I can’t recommend her enough'


Getting the help you need or exotic pets can be a tough ask of family and friends when going away, this is why I aim to provide a service for those requiring more specialised pet care.
I'm 30 years old and live with my animal-loving partner in a quiet close in Maidstone by a nature reserve. We live a quiet life together looking after our animal companions and I'd love to be able to help others in need of a loving temporary home for their pets.
I have 20 years experience in studying and keeping all manner of reptiles, amphibians and invertebrates and currently maintain a wonderful family of lizards, snakes, frogs, tarantulas and many more exciting creatures! All the pets are kept in a secure and temperature controlled room where your pet is welcome to come and stay with us, or in an entirely separate room if preferred!
My service would involve feeding, water changes, cleaning of enclosures, maintaining and checking temperatures and humidity, general maintenance and giving as much attention as your pet enjoys. I'd also be able to change out equipment when needed as we all know that fear of your heat bulb blowing while you're away!
Have more traditional pets? I've also kept dogs for many years and looked after hamsters, mice, cats, rabbits and more for extended periods. I have a passion for animals of all shapes and sizes!
I'm happy to do home visits within a reasonable distance, otherwise if you'd prefer (and the enclosure size is manageable) I would be more than happy to bring your pet/s home to stay with me while you're away. I also have spare enclosures should this be more convenient.
I have experience in providing oral and injected medicines to reptiles as well as small mammals and dogs so would be happy to continue any health requirements.
I work full time in Maidstone so my availability is weekdays from 5pm and weekends so I'd be available to do home visits a maximum of 1 visit per weekday and multiple on weekends if required, for as long as required. For this reason I specialise in smaller animals and exotics as I unfortunately cannot offer the time and attention a dog would require.


I owned and trained my first dog when I was 11 years old.Since then, I have owned several breeds and trained them to a high standard.For 5 years I was a private Dog Walker and Boarder and had many clients who would come back time after time.I also offer dog training sessions (and more importantly train the owners) in basic and some professional training. In addition, I can offer Reiki (healing), to animals.
I am currently home all day.  Walking, looking after, having fun and enjoying our furry friends is not a problem.I am also available to visit your pet if local to the Medway region for toilet breaks, etc.
I have a large house, which has a fenced front and back garden.  The gardens are safe, clean and tidy.There is a local park near to where I live.I also have two XXL dog crates, which can be used if requested.&nbsp;


Since having our own little moggy- Mr Tux 2.5yrs, we understand the worry and stress associated with ensuring all is well when we are away- even for a day. I then thought there must be many parents looking for alternative options from a cattery that I stumbled on this website. I would like to build up a friendly cat network where I can care for cats and people can care for mine if the occasion should ever arise. 
I understand cats prefer to stay at home in familiar territory whilst their owners are away, of course they will miss you but they will feel safe at home with their normal routine. 
I have always loved cats and been surrounded by them since I was young. I have experience caring for kittens and senior cats, to include playing, caressing, grooming, feeding and litter tray cleaning. 
With enough notice my availability can be flexible in the mornings, afternoons and evenings. I am happy to pop by to feed, play and/or just provide company for your cat/s. Each visit can be 30 - 60 minutes, so if you have plants I can happily feed them too. 
Happy to arrange a Meet &amp; Greet.
