"Shannon cared for my bulldog while we were away first time ever I had booked a dog sitter and I couldn’t have been happier.
She was in constant communication sending photos and updates so I felt relaxed knowing bear was ok.
Shannon was very patient with my dog as he was quite the challenge at times and I would be more than happy to book Shannon again she is a really lovely person ! "

"I honestly don’t know how to express how exceptional our experience with Ionuț was. He didn’t simply do a great job.. he went far beyond anything we could ever have expected from a cat sitter.
From the very beginning, he followed everything we explained with incredible care and attention. More importantly, he made both of our cats feel completely safe, relaxed and comfortable with him.
Our cats is normally reversed and aggressive with people he doesn’t know, yet they were lying beside Ionuț and even one of them were sleeping on his chest.. something we have genuinely never seen them do with someone outside the family. And both cats clearly became attached to him.
What impressed us even more was how observant he was. One of our cats had been eating less recently and Ionuț noticed something around his feeding area that could have been affecting him. He addressed it and somehow managed to get him eating even better again. This showed us that he wasn’t simply following instructions… he was actually watching their behaviour, understanding them and thinking about what they needed.
He clearly has an excellent understanding of cats… their behaviour, their boundaries, how to approach them, how to gain their trust and how to notice when something is not quite right.
Another thing that genuinely amazed us was that he managed to clean our cats’ eyes. They normally do not allow people they don’t know to do this at all, so we had considered it almost impossible. The fact that they trusted him enough to let him do it says more than anything we could write here.
Throughout our trip, he sent us wonderful photos and videos, and we could clearly see how happy and comfortable the cats were. We never had to worry about them.
He is also an exceptionally trustworthy, respectful and clean person. And then he went far beyond cat sitting altogether. Without us asking or expecting anything, he left our entire house absolutely spotless… including the garden and even the front entrance. He also prepared delicious homemade tiramisu, bread and hummus and left us a homemade jar as well. We were honestly overwhelmed by how much effort, care and kindness he put into everything, and almost felt embarrassed that he had done so much for us.
What started as finding someone to look after our cats ended with us meeting a genuinely wonderful person whom we now consider a friend.
Our cats absolutely loved him, we trust him completely, and we could not recommend him highly enough. Five stars honestly doesn’t feel sufficient.
Thank you Ionuț, for taking such extraordinary care of Selim and Ashley and for everything else you did for us. We really cannot thank you enough."

"This is the first time we’ve left the cats where we have immediately felt confident they would be okay. They are indoor cats, used to lots of company and with plenty of quirks. Lauren and Helen were considerate and took seriously the cats’ needs from before the sitting began. They kept us updated and were easy and quick to communicate with. We would not hesitate to recommend them. Thank you!"

"Zoe was an incredible sitter for our little pack of animals. From initial communication she was enthusiastic and knowledgeable. We have two Frenchies and she knew exactly how to care for them due to her previous experience.
She was fantastic with both our elder dog and our very enthusiastic young dog.
Zotes communication was great throughout her stay which made our time away even more relaxing. we wouldn't hesitate to welcome Zoe back to our home to care for our family."

"We had a fantastic experience with Annie and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter.
She stayed at our home for 4 days looking after Harry our cat and Toffee our dog, and we felt completely at ease the entire time. Annie was great at making sure Toffee got plenty of walks and exercise, and she regularly sent us lovely updates and photos of both Harry and Toffee, which we really appreciated.
When we returned home, everything was exactly as we left it—if not better! Annie clearly went the extra mile to keep everything clean and tidy. She even surprised us with a beautiful drawing of Toffee, which was such a thoughtful and personal touch.
Thank you, Annie, for taking such wonderful care of our pets and home!"

"This was the first time we've used any sort of dog/house sitting service so we were a little unsure of what to expect. Dan was fantastic from start to finish. He came to meet the dogs before the actual booking and it was clear that he knew dogs and quickly put my mind at rest. While we were away; Dan was great at keeping in touch enough so we weren't worried about the dogs, but not overpowering so we were able to enjoy our holiday. When we returned home, the house was immaculate, Dan had even washed the bedding he'd used! The dogs were happy and clearly well looked after while we were away. Would highly recommend Dan and will no doubt be booking him again in the future."

"Joanna was amazing. She looked after my 2 cats for 2 weeks. She made contact everyday with photos and videos and provided them with the company they needed while I was away, even offering advice on a long term health problem for one of my cats. She went above and beyond such as putting the bins out on the days I requested. Perfect service that I definitely plan to use again!"

Why house sitting ?
Are you going away but have a pet that prefers to stay in their own environment? Or perhaps you have a range of different animals and it’s not practical for you to organise for them to stay in different places? Then you might want to consider finding a Pawshake house sitter to come and stay at your Balsall Common home while you are away.
House sitting is a convenient and affordable option when you have multiple pets and also want your house to be securely looked after while you are away. Many of our pet sitters have very reasonable house sitting rates because they enjoy staying and exploring different local neighbourhoods like Balsall Common.
At Pawshake, we understand that trusting your home to a stranger can be a little daunting. So we’ve done all the hard work to ensure that your Pawshake house sitter is trustworthy and reliable. All our pet sitter profiles are checked individually by our dedicated trust and safety team and some house sitters also have their own police checks which they can share with you.
The best thing about engaging a Pawshake verified house sitter is that you can relax knowing that on top of being covered by The Pawshake Guarantee which includes veterinary coverage, so your pets are being cared for in a familiar environment and your Balsall Common home is also being looked after as well.
In addition to looking after your pets, most of our house sitters will happily help you by collecting your mail, taking out the bins, and watering your plants. Just make sure you discuss all your requirements with your chosen house sitter prior to booking.
