Sit back and relax! Your pet is in safe hands with their loving, experienced pet sitter.
SAdela has been absolutely amazing from start to finish. She is very willing to video call before booking. My 2 Ragdoll cats stayed with Adela in her home for a week. She provided me with several updates daily.
One of my cats has a chicken allergy and Adela was careful with this through the duration of their stay. You can be at peace when booking with her! I had no anxiety about the quality of her care - my cats were brushed, played with and loved. I couldn’t have asked for a better cat sitter whilst I was away on holiday.
Adela’s pricing is very reasonable and it would be hard to find a better pet sitter than her! Both her and her partner were lovely and involved with my cat’s care. I will definitely book again in the future if I need a cat sitter! 💗

LGigi and Edu are the best pet sitters you could ask for. From the moment we met them, it was obvious how much they genuinely love animals and how experienced they are with dogs. They were also incredibly accommodating with our pick up and drop off times, which made everything so much easier.
Their home is spacious, clean and very dog-friendly, with a secure dog park downstairs where the dogs can safely run around and play. We immediately felt comfortable leaving Tokki with them.
Tokki is only a young puppy, so naturally we were quite nervous about boarding him for the first time. However, Gigi and Edu took amazing care of him. They were so patient, affectionate and attentive, and they made every effort to maintain his routine. When we brought him home after five days, he settled straight back into his normal routine, which really showed how consistent his care had been while he was with them!
Communication was also outstanding. Gigi sent us regular updates, photos and videos throughout his stay without us even having to ask, which gave us so much reassurance and allowed us to enjoy our trip knowing Tokki was in safe hands.
When we picked him up, Tokki was calm, happy and clearly very comfortable with both Gigi and Edu. Seeing how relaxed and well cared for he was meant everything to us.
We genuinely couldn't recommend Gigi and Edu more highly! If you're looking for caring, trustworthy and experienced pet sitters who will treat your dog like one of their own, look no further. We will definitely be booking with them again in the future. Thanks again Gigi and Edu! ❤️

Your dog boarding questions answered
With home dog boarding, your dog stays overnight at a sitter’s home. Instead of being in a crowded dog kennel or dog hotel, your dog can be in a comfortable home and receive the same quality level of love and care you would provide.
Your dog will be staying at the sitter's home. Be sure to discuss any requirements with your sitter prior to booking. The more your sitter knows about your pet, the better! That way they can really ensure that your pet has the best and most comfortable stay.
Pawshake only accepts sitters who have experience and/or qualifications caring for pets. You will get to search, choose and have a free meet and greet with your sitter prior to making a booking.
Visit the sitter's profile and read about their background, home and experience.Then request a free meet and greet. If you are happy with the sitter’s dog boarding environment and how well they bond with your dog, confirm your booking on Pawshake.
