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 Barrhead 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 Barrhead.

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 Barrhead 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.

&nbsp;Pet Profile&nbsp;
&nbsp;&nbsp;
I've had dogs all my life, mostly Rottweilers and my last one went torainbow bridge three years ago. My heart isn't ready for another true love, butfriends kept asking me to dog sit for them. I was flattered that they trustedme with their fur baby, and it turned out to be the start of a wee business.&nbsp;
I only take one dog at a time so they can feel safe and loved withoutany threat from other dogs being there. If you have more than one dog and it'sfrom the same household that's not a problem.&nbsp;
**Some notes:**&nbsp;
· I've been sitting dogs for the past three years and some of those dogs have boarded three times now.&nbsp;
· I live across from Tollcross park, where they go for their walks, around 1.5 hours in the morning, 45minlate afternoon and 30min late evening.&nbsp;
· I work from home (self-employed), so I'll be there with them pretty much all the time.&nbsp;
· I would suggest a meet up or even a sleepover first. This is free of charge and a great way for us to get toknow each other&nbsp;
· I'm happy to give medication and follow your routine &nbsp;
· References are available&nbsp;
And finally...&nbsp;
Pick me and I guarantee your dog will have a ball.&nbsp;
**Please Note**&nbsp;
&nbsp;&nbsp;I can’t take the following:&nbsp;
Dogs that continuously bark (I’m in a flat)&nbsp;
Dogs that struggle to go up and downstairs (I’m on the second floor)&nbsp;
Dogs that are aggressive to other dogs&nbsp;

&nbsp;&nbsp;**Cat Owners**&nbsp;&nbsp;
I’ve also hadcats all my life and board them too. At one point I had five ex feral cats thatfound me and they lived into their twenties. I had a Rottie too and he wasbottom of the pack!&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
Recently, I hadmy dad’s two cats live with me, in the flat I’m in now. They were verycomfortable, lounging around, hiding in wee places and being entertained by thebird station at my window, the dangling toys in the doorways and other toys.&nbsp;
I supply a littertray, litter, toys and bowls. All you need to bring is kitty and food.&nbsp;

I am a friendly, reliable, and dedicated dog sitter with over five years of experience providing loving and responsible care to dogs of all breeds, ages, and temperaments. I understand that every dog has a unique personality and routine , and I take the time to ensure they feel comfortable, secure, and happy while their owners are away. I provide personalised care that includes feeding, regular walks, playtime, companionship, and basic daily care, always delivered with patience and attention.
I believe pets are part of the family, and I treat each one as if they were my own. I am attentive to their behaviour, emotional needs, and wellbeing, ensuring they receive both physical activity and affection. Safety, hygiene, and consistency are always my top priorities.

My experience has helped me build strong bonds with dogs and gain the trust of their owners. You can rely on me to provide professional, caring, and dependable service, giving you complete peace of mind and ensuring your dog remains relaxed, healthy, and well cared for in your absence.
I wake up early to make ensure morning walks, feeding, playtime and personalised care for healthy and happy pets.
A typical day includes morning walks or toilet breaks, feeding according to the dog’s usual schedule, and plenty of attention, play, and rest throughout the day. Dogs are never rushed and are given the care and patience they need. Regular updates can be provided to owners for peace of mind.
My home is clean, calm, and dog-friendly, making it a comfortable place for dogs to relax. Dogs are treated like part of the family and are well-supervised at all times. I only take a limited number of dogs to ensure each one receives individual care and attention.

I am happy to follow specific instructions regarding feeding, walking, medication, and sleeping arrangements. My priority is to provide a safe, loving, and stress-free home-from-home experience while owners are away.

A cat mum myself, I know how important it is to find a trustworthy catsitter – and I can't wait to be that person for you!
I am a freelance translator and subtitler based in the Gorbals, and the work flexibility makes it relatively easy for me to travel to my clients. I love cycling and running. Sometimes I feed two cats with one bowl and opt to cycle or run to my cat sitting appointments!
In my free time, I like to try out vegan recipes, make my own clothes and embroider.
I have two boy cats myself, and it seems I make a pretty good pillow for them. I love giving my furry clients cuddles and playing with them.
I think it's very important to offer services that allign with owners' needs and care routine. That's why I'll only ever give your cat treats if you're happy with me doing that. I can also groom your cat if you need me to (claw cutting and brushing).

I have been looking after and walking dogs since the age of 12, my family members and friends often rely on my to take their dogs on toilet breaks and walks allowing them to get exercise when their owners are unable to do so. For the past five years I have been dog sitting in owners homes while they are on holiday to ensure as little disruption to the pets life as possible and allowing them to stay in a routine. Animals have always had such a special place in my heart, they bring so much unconditional love and joy and companionship into our lives. Being a pet sitting and dog walker allows me to give that love right back. I do what I do because every pet deserves to feel safe, loved and cared for even when their favourite humans are away. 
Whether it's a long walk, cuddle on the couch or just keeping them in a consistent routine, I take pride in making every pet feel comfortable and loved, as I know how much peace of mind this gives to pet parents. Which is why I treat every pet as if they were my own. 


Hi! I'm Emma, a reliable, caring, and responsible pet sitter who genuinely enjoys spending time with animals and helping them feel safe, comfortable, and happy in their own home while their owners are away. I understand that trusting someone with both your pet and your home is a big decision, so I always aim to provide the same level of care, attention, and respect that I would want for my own.
I believe pets are happiest when they can stay in their familiar environment and maintain their usual routine. Whether your pet enjoys lots of playtime and interaction or prefers a quieter, more relaxed approach, I'm happy to adapt to their individual personality and needs. I take the time to build trust, ensure they feel comfortable, and provide plenty of attention, affection, and companionship while you're away.
I'm attentive to feeding schedules, fresh water, exercise, playtime, cleaning up after pets, administering simple routines, and making sure they remain happy and settled throughout my visits. I also provide regular updates and photos so you can enjoy your time away with complete peace of mind, knowing your pet is being well cared for.
Alongside caring for your pet, I'm extremely respectful of your home. I understand how important it is to return to a clean, secure, and well-looked-after space. I'm happy to help with small household tasks such as watering plants, bringing in parcels or post, opening and closing curtains, and generally keeping everything tidy and as you left it.
I have experience caring for my own dog as well as looking after several cats for friends and family. Through this experience, I've learned the importance of patience, consistency, and understanding that every pet is different. Some animals are confident and social, while others need a little more time and reassurance, and I'm always happy to work at their pace.



Hi! I'm a passionate, experienced and fully insured pet sitter and dog walker with 3 years of hands-on experience. I am also trained in pet first aid and CPR. I currently have 25 five-star reviews on a well-known pet sitting platform, and I’m proud to have built trust with so many pet owners. I’ve been actively pet sitting since March 2022, and I recently made the exciting decision to leave my full-time job to pursue this work full-time — caring for animals is what I truly love doing.
During this time, I’ve had the pleasure of looking after a wide variety of dogs and cats, each with their own personalities, ages, and unique needs. I’ve also cared for pets with medical conditions, including administering daily insulin injections for a diabetic dog.
I offer dog walking, overnight stays, feeding, and general pet care. I’m available Monday to Sunday. Your pet will always be treated with love, care and my full attention.


I’m a big animal lover with a soft spot for both cats and dogs. I didn’t get the chance to have pets growing up due to family reasons, so I really value any time I get to spend with them now. Being a pet sitter is a great way for me to do something I genuinely enjoy while helping owners feel at ease.
I’m friendly, patient, and easygoing, and I try to make every pet feel comfortable and cared for. I understand that each animal has its own personality, whether they’re playful and energetic or more quiet and independent.
I have experience looking after my partner’s cat and dogs, including feeding, walking, and spending time with them. I’ve also done dog walking before, so I’m confident handling dogs outside.
I’d treat every pet like my own and make sure they feel safe, happy, and well looked after :)


Hello, I'm Kitty I live in a very spacious apartment in Leith with a gated courtyard and a nice patch of grass next door.&nbsp;
I offer discount for leith residents as I add travel cost into prices,&nbsp;but as a leith local, if you live 20 minutes or less walking you get a sweet discount.I can walk your dog as long as needed as i know different breeds of dogs need longer and shorter, i can walk 2 pully small/medium dogs at a time or 3 small/medium behaved dogs at a time. I offer HOME VISITS AROUND LEITH AND EDINBURGH CITY AREA ONLY, as I use public transport. 
Im a 5 minute walk to leith links and various other parks and I have experience with pets on public transport so I have taken pets to the beach for a good run around.In December of 2020 I graduated from Leeds Art University with a bachelors in photography so you are guaranteed amazing pics of your babies but currently I am working full-time 9-5 Tuesday to Saturday soy schedule is a little busy but I'll always make time.
I also have experience with medium and large dogs having had a dalmation, boxer, and lurcher growing up. I currently owning 2 incredibly bouncy cocker spaniels. the 2 terriers are very good when I walk them but the spaniels are very difficult dogs so I know how to keep control of bouncy babies.&nbsp;
I do have a police security check that I am happy to show. obtaining it when I was supposed to work at summer camp in the US before covid got too out of hand.&nbsp;
I don't drive however I am within walking distance from parks and the oceanfront.&nbsp;
I want to do this because I love animals and my house isn't big enough to look after all of them at once.


I have always been an animal lover, having grown up with dogs all my life and having worked at a refuge for cats and dogs in Greece run by my uncle. I have a natural affinity with animals and am very patient and caring. Having lifelong experience of looking after dogs, I am able to keep control of them during walks without resorting to shouting, and am very aware of the specific needs of different types of dog, whether that be lengths of walks or quantities of food. I have also looked after friends' cats while they've been away, and love to play with them and keep them company! I am currently unable to look after pets in my flat as my flatmates suffer from allergies, and so I would love the chance to walk, look after and hang out with dogs and cats whenever possible. cats and dogs of all dispositions welcome!


I am a 25-year-old freelance journalist based in Glasgow Southside. When I am not writing, I’m working in a local cafe. In my spare time I weight train at the gym, paint and write poetry.&nbsp;
I have always had animals growing up, I have a dog and a cat who live at my mums house in Dumfries and Galloway who I go home and visit as often as I can, but I am severely lacking dog love in Glasgow.
My dog Rufus is a rescue, he is a Rottweiler x Lurcher and he is my best friend in the world. We adopted him in 2017 and I have loved him since the day we met. He is a gentle giant who’s still strong and energetic despite his age. He is reactive towards tractors and other large vehicles so we keep him muzzled when walking on main roads as advised by the rescue centre.&nbsp;
I love all dog breeds but large and giant breeds are my favourite. I enjoy walks in the park or the forest, but my absolute favourite place on earth is the beach.&nbsp;
I have also had fish and guinea pigs when I was younger and often pet sit for my friends with dogs and guinea pigs.&nbsp;
