"I booked Sarah due to her experience with disabled cats, and one of my mine has epilepsy that we are trying to find the correct medicine dosage for. She took excellent care of my 2 cats and kept me updated with photos and videos, and administered all medications. More importantly, my epileptic cat had a longer-than-usual seizure and when she could not reach me, she was proactive in administering emergency medication. She handled all in between communications between myself and the vet and made herself available for my calls and vet visits. Sarah handled things with great care, calm, and expertise, and I’m extremely grateful to have had such a competent sitter during an emergency."

"Leeanna was a fantastic house and pet sitter! She looked after our Aussie shepherd, Guinea pig herd, tortoise and aquarium for 3 nights whilst we were away on holiday. All our animals seemed really happy and well cared for on our return and the house was incredibly clean and tidy. Leeanna kept us up to date with all our animals’ antics and sent us lots of photos. This was our first time leaving our house and animals in someone else’s care so we were a bit nervous. However we made the best choice in Leeanna for sure! She even stayed later on the final day when our flight returned later than expected so our dog wouldn’t have to be by himself for too long! We cannot recommend Leeanna enough and we will certainly be reaching out to her for future pet sits. Thank you so much! "

"I couldn’t have asked for a better person to look after my cats and kittens. From the very beginning, they were attentive, reliable, and genuinely caring. It gave me real peace of mind knowing my pets were in such safe and capable hands. They went above and beyond to make sure all of my cats were comfortable, well-fed, and given plenty of attention and affection. My kittens especially require a bit of extra care and patience, and it was clear they handled them with such kindness and understanding. I also really appreciated the regular updates and photos, which reassured me that everything was going smoothly while I was away."

"Lily looked after our two cats and house sat while we were away recently. She is a conscientious, kind, and trustworthy person, and it was such a comfort knowing everything was in safe hands. Lily is a lovely person and we received daily updates with lots of pictures, which made it great to see the cats happy and content while we were away. The house was spotless when we came back, a true reflection of her care and reliability. We will definitely be using Lily again! Thanks Lily :)"

"Alex has been an outstanding dog sitter. She has messaged me throughout her stay, giving me updates of the dogs, putting my mind at ease. She has looked after the dogs with such care, making sure they were cool during the heat wave and even taking them on walks in the morning and late evening! One of our dogs is strong and difficult to walk, however, Alex put the needs of the dog first and walked him - even our regular dog walker doesn’t walk the dog - so this was truly amazing for us. Alex is a lovely, kind and caring person who I fully trust with all my dogs. This is the first time I ever used a dog sitter and therefore I was a bit nervous, however, Alex made the whole time easy and I look forward to booking her again! Thank you Alex! "

"We recently had the pleasure of entrusting our 13-year-old cat, Daisy, to Jana’s care while we were away. From the moment we met her, it was evident that Jana is not just a catsitter; she’s a true feline enthusiast who goes above and beyond to ensure the well-being of her furry charges. Jana’s dedication to Daisy’s comfort and happiness was remarkable. She showered Daisy with affection, ensuring she had plenty of cuddles, playtime, and delicious meals. Daisy’s contented purrs were a testament to the love and attention she received. Jana’s communication skills were outstanding. Throughout our time apart, she kept us informed with regular updates and adorable photos of Daisy. These snapshots of our beloved cat exploring, napping, and even striking funny poses put our minds at ease. We felt connected to Daisy despite the physical distance. Not only did Jana care for Daisy, but she also respected our home. The cleanliness of our living space upon our return was impressive. Jana ensured that the house was spotless, and she even changed our sheets—an unexpected but delightful touch. In summary, Jana exceeded our expectations as a catsitter. Her genuine love for animals, clear communication, and thoughtful approach make her an exceptional choice for anyone seeking top-notch pet care. We wholeheartedly recommend her services to fellow pet owners! :) Thank you, Jana, for taking such wonderful care of Daisy. You’re a gem, and we’re grateful to have found you!"

"I genuinely couldn't have felt more comfortable with Emma taking care of my blind cat Freya staying in my home while I was away for a couple of nights. Freya immediately took to Emma when they first met, and I was satisfied & impressed with the level of care she displayed when discussing Freya's routines, likes, dislikes etc. I came home to a very happy cat and was pleased with the level of communication during Emma's stay. I won't hesitate to use her services again - it's great knowing I have someone I can trust to care for Freya in my absence! Thanks Emma!"

"Judy was an incredible cat sitter and house guest. She was immediately likeable and I felt very confident she’d be a great fit. From arriving and throughout her stay she was immensely helpful, with household things as well as sending the best videos and photos of Mae. We’d love her to look after Mae again in the future! "

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 Barking 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 Barking.

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 Barking 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.

Pet owners book house sitting in Barking on Pawshake. Over 4351 pet owners in Barking have left a review, with an average of 4.97/5. All paid safely using Maestro, Visa, Mastercard, American Express
