"Marisa house‑sat for us over 10 days to look after our very scared and timid cat, Phoenix, and she was absolutely wonderful. Phoenix normally runs and hides under the bed whenever new people come into the house, but he warmed to Marisa surprisingly quickly and even ended up sleeping next to her — something we never imagined possible. For the first time in many years, we were able to go on holiday feeling relaxed and reassured, knowing he was in such gentle and patient hands. We’re genuinely grateful for the care she showed and wouldn’t hesitate to have her back again."

"We had Laura look after our 11 year old boxer Bella and 2 cats chunky and tiggy whilst we were away on holiday for a week. She stayed in our home which was perfect as we've had Bella stay in kennels before and she was returned to us very underweight due to not eating and the stress of being there. Our animals are our pride and joy and we really wanted them to be happy and well taken care of whilst we were away. Laura certainly did that, she sent us frequent updates which really set our minds at ease as we could see our babies were happy. When we returned home the house was left clean and tidy which was a lovely welcome home for us. We have already spoken with Laura about looking after are animals again on our next holiday. We are so very happy to find such a perfect match in Laura."

"Just wanted to say a big thank you to Heather, first time I have used a dog sitter and Heather exceeded all expectations. She sent me regular updates including photos of the dogs and the dogs were more than happy! I would recommend Heather to anyone looking for total piece of mind and the ability to relax whilst away knowing the dogs (and cats and rabbit) were being very well looked after. I would not hesitate in booking Heather again and would recommend her highly to anyone who needs their pets looking after."

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 Essex 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 Essex.

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 Essex 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.
