"We were a bit nervous leaving our two cats for nearly two weeks, but Raya was an absolute delight, allowing us to relax and enjoy our holiday knowing our pets were in safe hands. We opted for overnight stays. Raya was great at getting our younger cat in at nine every night, something even we struggle with at times when she’s simply having too much fun out and about, lavishing both cats with attention and affection, and making sure our older cat didn’t get too boisterous in their play-fighting which he can sometimes do! Raya sent us daily messages and pictures and took great care of our home too, so we came back home to watered plants, a tidy flat and two very well-looked after cats. We would absolutely recommend her for all your petsitting needs and will certainly look to hire her again in the future!!"

"Laura stayed at my home for 4 nights with my kitten Rafa. He was so calm and happy when I returned and my flat was also very well looked after. Everyday Laura sent me an update and cute photo of Rafa which allowed me to relax and fully enjoy my holiday. I would not hesitate to have Laura watch my cat and home again. She was great!"

"Gergely took wonderful care of our 3-year-old lab, Milo, while we were away on holiday. They kept us updated regularly with messages and photos, which was very reassuring. Milo has allergies and needs extra attention, and Gergely carefully followed all our instructions without missing a detail. The communication was excellent throughout, and we returned to a very happy and well-cared-for pooch. We would happily recommend Gergely to anyone looking for a dependable and thoughtful dog sitter."

"We would have no hesitation in using Natali again, or recommending her for cat sitting. We received regular updates & photos of our cat, and there were no issues with Natali giving him his twice daily medication. She bonded well with him & we came home to a happy cat, as well as a clean & tidy house."

When we arrived home, our flat was very clean and tidy and everything in perfect condition. She is an amazing pet sitter, I wouldn't hesitate to use Charlotte again and recommend her 100%. She clearly loved our cat and gave her so much affection while we were away!"

"This was our first time ever leaving Pattika with a non-family member, and we couldn’t be happier. Yu made sure to stay in constant communication, kept us updated on anything and everything with regards to Pattika’s care. We are so grateful we got to enjoy our wedding with our family in peace, with the safe knowledge Tika was being looked after so well. Would definitely choose Yu to look after our pup again, she was such a lovely person and we cannot thank her enough!!!"

"Macy house sat for our two dogs and our cat while we were away on holiday. She was very accommodating and was immediately great with all the animals. She communicated well and nothing was to much trouble. We got lots of photos while we were away which was lovely to see, all the animals were clearly very happy in her care. I'd definitely recommend Macy and look forward to the possibility of having her back next time we need her services! "

"Ruth took excellent care of our cats and chickens while we were away, sending us updates and pictures frequently. She managed to win our very shy cat's trust and we came home to two happy cats. She also took excellent care of our home which was left spotless. I felt very good about leaving our animals and home in her care and would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a house/pet sitter!"

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 Dalkeith 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 Dalkeith.

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 Dalkeith 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 Dalkeith on Pawshake. Over 590 pet owners in Dalkeith have left a review, with an average of 4.98/5. All paid safely using Maestro, Visa, Mastercard, American Express
