Top cities for house sitting in United Kingdom

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 Gorebridge 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 Gorebridge.

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 Gorebridge 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.

Hi! Here's a quick summary first. I have:
- experience with anxious/special needs dogs
- experience with high energy pets
- experience with kittens/young cats
This is Johnny, a big fan of cats and dogs! I fell in love with cats a few years ago, when I had the chance to live for 3 years with three wonderful cats. I've seen a few litters of kittens be born, helped socialise them and look after them, and entertained them - often by playing fetch with them! I had the priviledge to work from home with 3 cats sleeping on my bed, and many times, two of them would steal my office chair spot after leaving the room for more than 5 minutes. Nothing beats cosiness than a wee room that smells like coffee and a cat sleeping in the middle of the bed! One of them would demand walks around the neighbouthood, as he wanted to show off that his big clumsy 'cat' friend would protect him in the territorry of other cats.&nbsp;
I have always loved dogs. I have pet sat a few different dogs, some of them with anxiety issues. Running with them is a thing that I really enjoy, especially with breeds that require lots of activity. Mentioning the word "walkie", seeing the dog understand that is playing time, or when you come back from the shop and they are like "you're back! Yayyy!" - these are all moments of joy for me.
The reason why I would like to be part of Pawshake is because I miss having animals in my life. Unfortunately, I can't have pets of my own yet, and I am still adapting to living without any furry animal.There's nothing more rewarding that petsitting!


My name is Alannah, I am a 22 year old full time student. Dogs have been my greatest love and passion for many years now. I have experience &gt; 5 years, I have been boarding dogs at home for years and have always received positive feedback and reassurance from dog owners. In fact, I have gotten my whole family involved in the business! I am in my final year&nbsp;and therefore want to spend some time doing something I love.&nbsp;
Having 2 dogs at home and then boarding dogs for years now has given skills and experience I will put to use ensuring your dog has the best care possible. I have experience with the smallest of dogs to the largest of them. Provding the best care, through food, love and any other requirements they need! I send regular updates and ensure there is no worry on your side.
My services would include dog walking and/or housesitting as I have just moved into a flat in the Morningside area. If you made it this far, it would be my pleasure to walk/ look after your dog(s), while you remain worryfree and your dog receives the best of care. Please don't hesitate to contact me if you have any questions!


Hello, I'm Eugenia. I bring a unique blend of experience, calm and joy to pet sitting owing to my rich educational background and diverse expereince in the school of life. I have a particular passion for creativity and mindfulness. 
I've done a lots of wonderful in-home pet-sitting locally and abroad whist not being able to house my own (as per fourteen 5 star trustedhousesitters.com Reviews). I've cultivated an intuitive understanding of the animals' needs and behaviours. From the energetic romps of large breeds to the gentle companionship of smaller pets, I appreciate and cherish the individuality of each furry friend.
My journey into mindfulness and wellbeing has further enriched my pet care practices. I believe in fostering a harmonious environment where pets can feel safe, loved, and mentally stimulated. Whether it's a calming walk through nature or a cosy cuddle session at home, I prioritize their emotional and physical wellbeing. I integrate calming techniques and attentive presence into every interaction with your pets. Through mindful engagement, I aim to create moments of joy, relaxation, and connection for your beloved companions.
While I'm unable to accommodate pets at my own home, I provide dedicated pet sitting and home visit services tailored to your pets' needs. From feeding and playtime to regular walks and garden adventures, I ensure your pets receive the care and attention they deserve.


My partner Michael and I are very excited to be a helping hand for you and your fur babies.&nbsp;
A little about us: 
Before Michael and I moved in together, Michael lived at home with his 5-year-old dog Rhino, and I lived at home with my 6-year-old cat Toby. 
Rhino stayed at home with Michaels family and Toby came with us, as introducing 2 adult pets didn't go too well unfortunately :(. Since then, we have missed having a doggy around and going for long walks, so have decided it's time to get a puppy of our own in the near future! Which made us think, what better way to save some pennies for our future puppy than to care for other fur babies!! 
During the peak of the pandemic, I volunteered to dog walk and sit for the elderly who were unable to leave their homes or had to attend appointments. I met lots of precious fur babies and really enjoyed the opportunity of taking them for long walks and seeing them getting to stretch their legs.
I work from home and Michael works from home every Monday and Friday, so we have plenty of time as a team to be available for walkies and drop ins. 
We would love to be a helping hand with your fur babies and provide you peace of mind that they will be in safe and loving hands! After all they are the most precious part of the family.
If you have any questions at all, please don't hesitate to ask. 
Sara &amp; Michael xo&nbsp;

I grew up on a farm in the United States where I lovingly handled chickens, cats, dogs and horses. Whether that be mucking out the stalls so the horses had a comfortable bed to lay down in, making sure our boston terriers had plenty of outdoor time to exhaust their loving yet hyperactive batteries, or if anyone was sick to ensure that the babies got the proper treatment.
Being far away from the farm that I grew up on has left a lasting hole in my heart, one that was filled with fuzzy warm dogs that wanted to kiss me because they are filled with love. Filled with the spurts of dopamine I would receive whenever I came home, greeted by the energetic excitement of the animals. Filled with a sense of parental love as I became a voice for them because they do not have one.
This is why I wish to become a sitter, because I miss my animals back home and want to extend my love for them to your pets. Growing up on a farm throughout my 30 years of being on it has offered me the privelege of taking care of 6 cats and 12 dogs. This meant I was responsible for walking, washing, training and feeding every one of them. This care extended to the slightly larger meadow puppies who weighed closer to 600 kg and were used for horseback riding. My experience in taking care of animals is vast as it has always been matched with my sincere love for them.&nbsp;
I take any and all animals, does not matter. Any chance I can get to see their tail wag, hear their bark, scratch their coat or throw their ball I will take it.&nbsp;
Thank you so much for taking the time to look at my profile, and I do hope to hear from your furry friends soon!
*Side note: I apologize in advance if you find me talking to your pet as we will become best friends!


Hi there! My lifelong adoration for animals has been an integral part of my journey. Over the years, I've had the pleasure of caring for two remarkable cats, one of whom required special attention and medical care, including administering injections – a responsibility I willingly shouldered. At present, I share my abode with an adorable rat, adding a unique and delightful dynamic to my animal-loving household.
Regrettably, my cherished pets currently reside with my mother in Ukraine, creating a palpable sense of longing for their companionship. Despite the physical distance, my passion for animals remains unwavering. Engaging in dog walks with a friend's furry companion brings me immense joy, as does the delight of playful interactions with cats.
My approach to animals is defined by a gentle and caring demeanor, reflecting a deep respect for their well-being. I eagerly anticipate connecting with fellow pet enthusiasts, sharing experiences, and fostering a community centered around our shared love for these wonderful creatures.&nbsp;


I moved to Edinburgh from New Zealand in 2022 and have been really missing animals as I'm not allowed a pet in my flat. I used pawshake to help save up for my move back in New Zealand for six months before I moved here. I really enjoyed meeting new people and pets and getting to form a bond with the ones I saw regularly. I'm looking to get back into it so I can pat some cute dogs on the regular.&nbsp;I grew up with cats in my home but have looked after lots of different kinds of dogs through this app. Once I get a place of my own I'd love to get a daschund one day.&nbsp;I am based in EH7, close to Easter Road and Meadowbank. I really love how many people have dogs here and how dog friendly Edinburgh is. I work full time Monday to Friday, mostly in the office near Old Town.&nbsp;When I'm not at work I like to visit all the museums and galleries around the place, or relax in front of the tv with whatever series I'm currently working through.&nbsp;I'm experienced and available for feeding and play visits, dog walking and house/pet sitting while you're away. Happy to discuss more about you and your pets specific needs and come to meet them before booking.&nbsp;

I grew up always surrounded by pets at home and we had several dogs which were my best friends. I recently was a proud dog mum to two lovely but sometimes a little naughty rescue greyhounds! Sadly we lost them both in their old age earlier this year. I am not in a position to adopt again at the moment, but am missing the happiness and joy dogs can bring to our lives. This is why I have set up a Pawshake profile, to help out with your furry family&nbsp;
I have experience with anxious and needy dogs, as well as dogs who are not happy around other dogs, people or other pets. I am understanding, patient and caring and understand that all dogs are different and have their own quirks and funny personalities. I have carried out training with my own dogs, including basic commands but also helping with some behavioural issues and would be able to offer some of this experience to training. I'd be happy also to do some basic dog maintenance e.g brushing fur and teeth. I will get to know your dog and your requirements, and could house sit overnight at weekends, or bank holidays if needed. I would be able to also some basic house chores like watering the plants if I'll be there anyway, and would spend time with your day giving them plenty of fuss!
My availabilty for dog walking would primarily be weekends in the day or weekday evenings as I do work Monday to Friday, usually in the office. On the weekend, or weekday evenings I can dog sit or walk your dog, and will only take on one dog at at time (unless from the same family), so your dog would have my undivided attention (as it should be!).&nbsp;
I am based in the NewTown/Stockbridge area of Edinburgh so at the moment would be available for only fairly local dogs - but happy to meet more! Walks would mostly be short walks around the city, but if your dog needs longer walks we could go further to Inverleith Park or near you and do some running around and play fetch etc.&nbsp;
Send me a message if this sounds what you might be looking for. I hope to be out and about having fun and walking well with your pet soon!


As a dedicated and compassionate individual, I have always had a deep love for animals, and being a pet sitter allows me to combine that love with my desire to provide exceptional care to furry companions.

My motivation to be a pet sitter stems from my genuine understanding of the important role pets play in our lives. I believe that they are cherished family members who deserve nothing but the best care and attention. I am committed to creating a safe and loving environment where every pet feels comfortable, loved, and well-taken care of.

When it comes to the safety of pets in my care, I prioritize their health and require that all animals staying with me be up-to-date on vaccinations. Maintaining their health is of utmost importance to me, and I take great pride in providing a clean and secure environment.

My pet sitting services include regular feeding, exercise, playtime, and lots of cuddles. I am also experienced in administering medications if required, and I am attentive to any specific needs or instructions provided by pet owners.

By choosing me as your pet sitter, you can rest assured that your furry friend will receive the highest level of care and attention. I am committed to building a strong bond with every pet, ensuring their happiness and well-being in your absence.

Having spent the last year petsitting in France and the UK I'm now living in Edinburgh and looking to walk your four legged friends.
I'm a massive animal lover available for dog walking around Granton, Trinity and Leith areas. I've always had dogs and cats growing up and I really enjoy their company. I’ve spent time volunteering in DSPCA (RSPCA in Ireland) and Dogstrust so I’m familar with different dog breeds, sizes and personalities. I took a dog training course a few years ago where we learned various dog training techniques. 
I'm happy to vary the pace according to your dogs needs. Throwing sticks along the way if that's what they're into! I can do walks from 30 mins to 3 hours long. Your dog will enjoy a safe walk with lots of pats and attention. 
I'm available weekday evenings and weekends and happy to fit around you're schedule. 


I’m Gabryel and I travel the world as a pet sitter. I love animals so much and we have experience with them, especially cats and dogs. I grew up with them in my home and love to be in contact with them on a daily basis. As I'm traveling constantly, sometimes its hard to not have any pet around me. I’ve been sitting full time for the past 10 months in many countries, such as Germany, Portugal, Greece, Netherlands, France, etc.&nbsp;
I’m a responsible and organized person and I do believe that pets miss their owners, so my mission is to give them all the love and care while the owners are not around. I try to make their walks and moments as good as possible, because they deserve it.&nbsp;
I basically always had dogs, and cats I started to have more contact the past 2 years.&nbsp;
I take care of the pets with a lot of love, I treat them as if they were my own animals. I love to give them walks, snuggles, a lot of attention and company. In these months traveling I had the opportunity to look after different types of pets and I understand that each one has its particularities. That's why I try to adapt and give my best to each one of them.



 I’m veterinary technician graduate with biology master’s. I have job experience in pet hospital and private veterinary. I grew up with animals and I have experience with vast majority of pets. I love them they love me back.
I’m currently working home office as self employed data analyst, they won’t be alone. Don’t have much in my plate right now. So i’ve time for a furry fella. My Labrador passed away 2 years ago and I miss him everyday. After long years of companionship I got used to have a friend around me. Meeting new dogs and spending time with them really helps.
I live 2 minutes to The Meadows and it is perfect for dog walking I love it here. If I'm walking with a friendly social dog, it gives the opportunity to meet other dogs, say hi and play a little and if I'm walking with a dog who is nervous around other dogs/people there are paths to avoid other dogs and crowd so they can just walk and relax. The Meadows is big enough for everybody. 
Keeping the same routine is essential for dogs. I will follow their routine while getting to know them. It’s all about communication once we start they will tell me what they need and what they want.
