My dedication to animal welfare is deeply ingrained, I've been vegan for 10 years and vegetarian for 15 years prior to that. Growing up with animals from a very young age has given me a lifetime of hands on experience and understanding. Beyond pet sitting, I actively assist with animal rescue efforts and proudly donate a portion of my income from pet sitting to various animal charities both in the UK and internationally. This isn't just a job for me, it's a core part of my commitment to animal wellbeing.I am a devoted animal lover with a genuine passion for pet care, specialising in making even the most timid animals feel comfortable and loved. There's nothing I enjoy more than showering animals with affection and ensuring their happiness. I pride myself on going above and beyond to meet the unique needs of every pet in my care.To ensure everyone is happy with the arrangement, I offer complimentary meet and greets before confirming any bookings. You can also rest assured knowing I am fully insured and DBS checked (my status is continuously updated through the NHS auto enrolment service). Furthermore, I hold a Level 3 qualification in Animal Management, which I earned through a comprehensive three year college program.

Hello I’m Niamh I have a passion for animals and I’m extremely patient and caring and I can work around your schedule without problem. I'm a owner of my own pets so I understand how important your furry friend is to you and I will make sure to make sure your pet feel happy and calm no matter what I know how worrying it can be to leave your pet, so I understand it's stressful trying to find the right person. I am qualified in animal management with a level 3 qualification, I have a huge passion for animals and love any animal furry or not .
from me you can expect top level care and patience for your pet I'll be more than happy to tire your pet out by playing with them/ walking them or even just by spending quality time with them to ensure they feel safe and comfortable while I care for them.
my motivation to be a pet sitter comes from my love for animals big and small I love keeping animals happy and comfortable, my main priority while pet sitting would be keeping your furry friends happy and comfortable no matter what.

I’ve loved dogs all my life, and that love grew even stronger because of my Pomeranian, who lived joyfully with me for ten years before passing away due to health reasons. Losing him was heartbreaking, but it also reminded me how deeply I connect with animals and how much comfort they bring. I truly believe dogs are the best beings on earth, and becoming a pet sitter allows me to stay close to that happiness while supporting owners who want their pets to feel safe and cared for. I have experience looking after dogs for friends and neighbours, helping with walks, feeding, playtime, gentle routines and general daily comfort. I enjoy getting to know each dog’s personality and making sure they feel understood and relaxed. For safety, I only take vaccinated pets into my home. I offer a calm, clean and friendly environment where every dog is welcomed with genuine love and attention.


Hi I'm John, I am family man of 6 children and many grandchildren, we have had pets all our life so far, dogs which are great companions called lucky and Beauty, they were loved and cared for many years ago, love playing and walking and cuddles groomed , also we have had many cats and kittens, also loved and cared for, especially my own cat cheeky, she was a cheeky girl got In to mischief but that was her personality. She got in to trouble with community whom sadly miss treated her abused her, ever fire works attached to her , this created anxiety and depression to her life, she also got knocked over by car had her pelvis rebuilt , thankfully made full recovery with my support she got back on her feet. She has been my friend and companion for over 21 years after passing. She is still with me in my heart. She comes where ever I am. Now we have a two year old cat Harry new in our family. 
Every pet deserves the love and attentiveness and a friend. I am happy to come and spend time with your friends too.&nbsp;To help care for your loved ones and support them, sadly I am unable to provide boarding or day care in my home as I'm not licensed as of yet. But I do believe in your pets best interest they are more comfortable in their own home environment. 

I've been professionally looking after pets since 2019 and it's became my full time job - I stay at home most time.I'm licensed and insured dog boarder. I live in a detached bungalow with a secure fenced yard, just by the entrance to the woods where we go for walks everyday.&nbsp;My own dog, a little cockapoo girl is happy to meet new friends and share her space and toys with them. I board up to 4 dogs at a time and I make sure they are all friendly with eachother and with me. There is no cages here and dogs are separated just for feeding time.I don't accept unneutered males or large, high energy dogs.I offer home visits for cats and dogs, I drive my own car, pick ups and drop offs available for boarders as well.I'd love to meet you and your pup and give you more information if you're interested in my services, feel free to visit us and see how it works. You'll be asked to fill out an information form about your dog prior to the booking.You'll get pictures and updates of your fur baby every day when you're away. I'll follow any diet and exercise regime requirements.My dog First Aid training is up to date.


Hello, I'm Nicky :)
I have extensive experience walking dogs, having spent the past six months walking two of my neighbors' dogs every weekday. This daily routine has allowed me to develop a strong understanding of different dog behaviors and needs.&nbsp;
Additionally, as a cat owner myself, I am well-versed in pet care and ensuring the safety and happiness of animals.&nbsp;
I offer dog walking and home visit services for cats and dogs, ensuring your pets are well-cared for even when you're not around. Unfortunately i wont be able to provide any services in my own home (mum won't be too happy haha).&nbsp;
My schedule is fully flexible, allowing me to accommodate your needs and provide reliable, loving care for your furry friends. My priority is to build trusting relationships with pets and their owners, ensuring passionate care.&nbsp;
By choosing me, you can rest assured that your pets will receive personalised attention and exercise tailored to their preferences, fostering their health and happiness.&nbsp;


Quick note: I work part-time, 8-10 hour shifts in Lindley, Huddersfield which prevent me from dog sitting long periods; cat sitting is fine as long as you're happy with me being away from the home for half the day on random days (3-4 days of the week). I don't have a car and only pet sit in areas within an 8 mile cycle radius of Huddersfield. Thanks.Introduction&nbsp;Hello! I'm Chris. I'm relatively new to Pawshake however please don't mistake that for inexperience. I semi often look after my friends' cats and dogs whenever they go on holiday and I love it for mainly two reasons: One, I love hanging out, playing with and caring for my furry friends and Two, it means a lot to me that my friends trust me with their pets.&nbsp;My experience&nbsp;Over the years, I've dog and cat sat for quite a few of my friends. I believe the reason they always ask me is, not only do they trust me but also I've got to know their pets really well through play and being around them for long periods of time. Their pets are comfortable around me and me them. Having a dog growing up definitely helped me understand animals better (my wee Jack Russell, Toffee - I miss him so much! ) alas I do believe I'm naturally good with cats and dogs, regardless. My experience with dogs has ranged from looking after my friend Gail's two tiny Papillon, one very high energy and playful, the other older and more reserved, to my other friend Elisa's huge St. Bernard puppy - very friendly and sweet yet needed a lot of attention and play (and also a bit stubborn, not judging at all!). I have cat sat for my friends, Thomas and Adélie, quite a few times - they have a beautiful British Shorthair, Ravelle. I am privileged enough to have bonded with Ravelle from when he was a kitten with lots of play; I wish I could say cuddles but British Shorthair are not commonly known to be very cuddly! He is wary of most of Thomas and Adélie's friends but will happily sit very close to me when I visit, something my friends are always surprised at. I think it's because we bonded so well during those early years.Why I'm a dog walker / pet sitterThe main motivations for looking after animals is because I have decided to change my career. I'm studying to become a psychotherapist. This is much more suited to who I am as a person — I'm empathetic, caring and, ultimately, I want to help people. As I absolutely adore cats and dogs, to me, it's a no brainer to offer my services in any way I can as I'd be doing something I love and that I'm good at. I feel not only am I doing something I love but I'm helping people, which is a big part of my values and who I am as a person. Knowing your pet (let's face it, your furry child) is in safe and happy is crucial - I believe I have the experience and what it takes to just do that.&nbsp;

Hi! I'm Nat and I'm here to offer you some company for your fur baby/babies from November onwards 
I am a mum of 3 (2 humans and a fur baby)  I love being around dogs, I have never been without one growing up big or small! 
My dog now is Bernie, he is a 3 year old bedlington terrier so I'm not shy when it comes to hyper dogs let me tell you  
He is our second Bedlington, we had a female rescue named Tilly before him. 
Growing up I've had golden retrievers, cross breeds, mastiff's and bouvier des flandres as family pets. I like to call them "Gentle giants". 
If you're looking for someone to keep your dog/dogs company at home or you are wanting them to have a walk whilst you are busy then I will be taking bookings from November 2025 onwards. 
I am happy to meet your dog/dogs prior to booking so they can get to know me a little first and not be a stranger to them.  

I’m a caring, reliable, and attentive pet sitter with a genuine passion for animal wellbeing. My motivation to be a pet sitter comes from the joy I get from building trust with animals and helping them feel safe, calm, and happy while their owners are away. I understand that leaving a pet can be stressful, so I focus on providing consistent, personalised care that mirrors their usual routine as closely as possible.
I have hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats with a variety of personalities, energy levels, and needs. For example, I’ve looked after energetic dogs who need longer, structured walks and plenty of playtime, as well as more relaxed or older pets who prefer gentle walks and quiet companionship. During walks, I stay alert to my surroundings, keep dogs on secure leads, and adjust pace and distance based on the dog’s comfort and ability.
I also have experience caring for pets who feel anxious or unsettled. In these situations, I take a calm, patient approach, using reassurance, routine, and familiar activities to help them relax. Playtime is always tailored to the pet — whether that’s throwing a ball, interactive games, or calm indoor play.
Safety and hygiene are always a priority for me. I closely supervise pets at all times, follow owner instructions carefully, and only accept fully vaccinated pets to ensure a healthy environment. My goal is to give every pet individual attention and every owner complete peace of mind.&nbsp;


Hii, I grew up with a lot of pets in my family including ragdolls, british short hair, stray cats, fishes, a snake and also a golden retriever so I can assure that your pet will be taken good care of. I am happy to take your pet on walks or just pet sit. I can speak english, cantonese, mandarin and a bit of french!
I have previously pet sat for some family friends and I regularly walk my neighbours dogs. I am comfortable with being around bigger pets or smaller ones (hopefully non agressive ones, but I do not mind). I absolutely adore animals and I get along with them well.&nbsp;
Unfortunately I will not be able to have them stay with me overnight as where I stay does not allow pets however I am able to come to yours to watch them. It would also be preferred if your pet was vaccincated in order to ensure safety on both ends but I am happy to discuss that. During all my services, I will be in contact with you to ensure your pets safety and also to ensure I am doing my best to keep up to their needs whether it is taking medication or other things!&nbsp;
My schedule currently is pretty flexible but it alters from time since I have uni but feel free to reach out! I am looking forward to meeting you and your wonderful pets :)

My name is Faye, I'm 26 years old and I am offering dog walking services as well as dog sitting/providing your dogs with company in the comfort of their own home when their beloved owners are busy. For dog walks I offer 30 minutes or an hour long walks if the dog needs more exercise &amp; when house sitting I am happy to administer medication or complete other small tasks you may need help with. I have been passionate about dogs for as long as I can remember and just adore how they love you unconditionally. Me and my family own an 11 year old Springer Spaniel called Milo who turned blind in the last couple of years so I am very experienced with dogs who may face difficulties when out on walks or even in the home. I am able to adapt walks/home visits to the needs of each dog breed no matter what size and like to build good relationships with owners to understand what would work best for them and their dogs! Please don't hesitate to message if you're interested in discussing further.
