"I hired Patricia to take care of my cat, Minnie, while I was away for a week and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. From the beginning, Patricia was professional, communicative, and clearly experienced with cats. She sent daily updates and photos, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. Minnie looked happy, healthy, and well cared for when I returned. I would absolutely trust Patricia again and recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring cat sitter."

"Annie was a wonderful pet sitter. She came on time to look after my dog for three hours whilst I had a course. My dog Rosie seemed comfortable and happy with Annie. Annie was always on time and accommodating to last minute changes, which was really appreciated. I would very much recommend Annie as a pet sitter. "

"Emily looked after our two house rabbits overnight. It is so nice to find someone specialising in the smaller pets on this app. She was more knowledgeable than your typical cat or dog sittThe boys were well taken care of and happy as usual on our return. One of them is waiting for vet treatment so we asked Emily to let us know if there were any changes with him, luckily he was fine. Emily was very quick at responding to messages and arranging to meet the bunnies and receive keys. She sent us a lovely update during her visit and followed up when we got home. Highly recommend for people looking for a small pet sitter. "

"I highly recommend Natalie as a cat sitter for Peize. She was reliable, provided frequent updates (which gave me great peace of mind), and most importantly, Peize clearly enjoyed her company. It’s reassuring to know my cat is in such good hands. I’ll definitely be booking her again for future appointments!"

"Aimee has been absolutely amazing taking care of my little, adorable, and mischievous Dulcinea! ❤️ From the very beginning, she has been reliable, caring, and incredibly communicative, which gave me so much peace of mind. She regularly shared lovely photos and updates about how Dulcinea was doing, and I always felt reassured knowing she was in such good hands. I would recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, attentive, and loving to look after their furry family member. Thank you so much, Aimee, for taking such wonderful care of my little girl! 🐾💕 "

"Sam is a wonderful pet sitter and I am very glad she was the one who looked after my pets. She clearly cares and is passionate about animals, it is very obvious she takes her role seriously. Communication was excellent, I particularly enjoyed getting messages and photo updates of how my pets were doing. I would happily let Sam look after any of my pets again in the future."

Why pet sitting ?

When you have to go away or work long hours, you may worry about leaving your pet home alone. Have you ever wondered “Is there a pet or dog sitter in Edinburgh that can help?”.

Luckily, with Pawshake, you can easily find local and trusted pet and dog carers from Edinburgh to provide drop in visits and other services. This means a pet sitter will come and visit your pet at a time you both agree on and provide lots of love and personal attention. This can include playtime in the backyard, a walk to the local park, or just some cuddle time. Our pet carers can also administer medication, give food, and refresh the water bowl.

In home pet sitting services are a great way to break up the day and enrich it for your pet. Pawshake pet sitters have extensive experience caring for a range of pets including dogs, cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, birds and more. If you have multiple pets, home visits are a great option to ensure that they all get a visit and lots of attention during the day.

Drop in visits are the least stressful option for your pet because your pet can stay in their favourite environment – their own home in Edinburgh. Their surroundings will be familiar and our loving and passionate Pawshake sitter will spoil them each day. Our sitters will treat your home with respect and are flexible with timing, requests and durations. All this can be discussed before you make a home visit booking.

Pet boarding is a great option for when you are away for a few days and your pet needs overnight care. Unlike pet hotels, Pawshake pet boarding allows you to arrange a personalised daily routine for your pet, whether this be extra belly rubs, playtime or 24 hour supervision. Your pet will stay with the pet sitter in a cosy home environment, rather than a large, impersonal pet hotel.

So whether you need just one day, a week or even a month, you’ll be able to find an experienced pet or dog carer to accommodate you and your pet’s needs in Edinburgh. The best part is that your Pawshake pet sitter is from your local neighbourhood, so they will be familiar with the area.

Our pet carers also have a range of experiences which include puppies, seniors, nervous pets and dog training. So if your pet has special requirements, you’ll be sure to find a pet sitter that is a good match for you.

Your pet’s safety and welfare is a big priority for us, which is why all of our Pawshake pet sitters undergo a strict vetting process by our trust and safety team. At Pawshake, we understand that you might feel a little uneasy allowing a pet sitter to enter your home or arranging pet boarding at their place. This is why Pawshake pet sitters also have reviews from other pet parents that are publicly available on their profile for you to read.

Each pet sitting home visit and pet boarding booking made through Pawshake is covered by the Pawshake Guarantee, which includes veterinary coverage, customer support 7 days a week and more. Rest easy knowing that your pets will be well looked after by one of our expert pet carers in Edinburgh.

Pet owners book pet sitting in Edinburgh on Pawshake. Over 1352 pet owners in Edinburgh have left a review, with an average of 4.98/5. All paid safely using Maestro, Visa, Mastercard, American Express
