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 Halifax 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 Halifax.

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 Halifax 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.

With a lifelong passion for dogs and the proud owner of five furry companions throughout my life, I bring a wealth of pet care experience to the table.
No matter the breed, I can ensure your pup receives the care and attention they deserve. Not afraid to get my hands dirty (literally!) I'm well versed in grooming after a muddy adventure.
Plus I have a knack for puppy training after years of attending classes, your dog will be in very good hands! I am CPD accredited in Dog First Aid and Emergency Canine Care until 2028  
I've comfortably looked after a variety of sized dogs, including:
Small Breeds - Pugs, Lhasa Apso, Jack Russell / Shih Tzu / Poodle (Cross)
Medium Breeds - Border Collie, American Bulldog, American Bully, Springer &amp; Cocker Spaniels
Large Breeds - Boxers, Labradors, Golden Retrievers, Husky, German Shepherd, Labradoodle
My experience in this industry started as a teenager, providing overnight care for neighbours and relatives pets (spanning up to two weeks board on a number of occasions).
I started promoting my dog sitting services properly in 2024 and have since cared for 6 dogs. All of these owners have since rebooked with me, and I have another 3 dogs confirmed this year off the back of it. 
I hope my portfolio of fur babies continues to grow from this positive feedback, as I'd love to meet lots of new faces in 2025  

Hi I'm John, I am family man of 6 children and many grandchildren, we have had pets all our life so far, dogs which are great companions called lucky and Beauty, they were loved and cared for many years ago, love playing and walking and cuddles groomed , also we have had many cats and kittens, also loved and cared for, especially my own cat cheeky, she was a cheeky girl got In to mischief but that was her personality. She got in to trouble with community whom sadly miss treated her abused her, ever fire works attached to her , this created anxiety and depression to her life, she also got knocked over by car had her pelvis rebuilt , thankfully made full recovery with my support she got back on her feet. She has been my friend and companion for over 21 years after passing. She is still with me in my heart. She comes where ever I am. Now we have a two year old cat Harry new in our family. 
Every pet deserves the love and attentiveness and a friend. I am happy to come and spend time with your friends too.&nbsp;To help care for your loved ones and support them, sadly I am unable to provide boarding or day care in my home as I'm not licensed as of yet. But I do believe in your pets best interest they are more comfortable in their own home environment. 

I currently volunteer at a renowned Cat rescue in Bradford where I have been working for 12 years. I have experience working with ill cats, cats with special needs, and kittens of all ages. I also foster for the rescue so i am used to looking after different cats with different personalities.
I have grown up with cats all my life and currently have 5 cats of my own, all of which are rescues, Minx, Missy, Ninja, Cagney and Rascal. They range in ages from 3 to 14. 3 of them have been with me since they were kittens. They all have different personalities and are loving cuddly cats.
 I have a National Diploma in Animal Care from Craven college.
I enjoy meeting different cats, making friends with them and earning their trust- even the shy nervous ones. If i were to look after your cats i would treat them like they were my own. They would get cuddles if they wanted, the care and attention they deserve. I would also be happy to take daily pictures of your cats and send them to you. I would want to come and meet your cats before you go away to learn their routine and any medical or additional needs they have.&nbsp;


Quick note: I work part-time, 8-10 hour shifts in Lindley, Huddersfield which prevent me from dog sitting long periods; cat sitting is fine as long as you're happy with me being away from the home for half the day on random days (3-4 days of the week). I don't have a car and only pet sit in areas within an 8 mile cycle radius of Huddersfield. Thanks.Introduction&nbsp;Hello! I'm Chris. I'm relatively new to Pawshake however please don't mistake that for inexperience. I semi often look after my friends' cats and dogs whenever they go on holiday and I love it for mainly two reasons: One, I love hanging out, playing with and caring for my furry friends and Two, it means a lot to me that my friends trust me with their pets.&nbsp;My experience&nbsp;Over the years, I've dog and cat sat for quite a few of my friends. I believe the reason they always ask me is, not only do they trust me but also I've got to know their pets really well through play and being around them for long periods of time. Their pets are comfortable around me and me them. Having a dog growing up definitely helped me understand animals better (my wee Jack Russell, Toffee - I miss him so much! ) alas I do believe I'm naturally good with cats and dogs, regardless. My experience with dogs has ranged from looking after my friend Gail's two tiny Papillon, one very high energy and playful, the other older and more reserved, to my other friend Elisa's huge St. Bernard puppy - very friendly and sweet yet needed a lot of attention and play (and also a bit stubborn, not judging at all!). I have cat sat for my friends, Thomas and Adélie, quite a few times - they have a beautiful British Shorthair, Ravelle. I am privileged enough to have bonded with Ravelle from when he was a kitten with lots of play; I wish I could say cuddles but British Shorthair are not commonly known to be very cuddly! He is wary of most of Thomas and Adélie's friends but will happily sit very close to me when I visit, something my friends are always surprised at. I think it's because we bonded so well during those early years.Why I'm a dog walker / pet sitterThe main motivations for looking after animals is because I have decided to change my career. I'm studying to become a psychotherapist. This is much more suited to who I am as a person — I'm empathetic, caring and, ultimately, I want to help people. As I absolutely adore cats and dogs, to me, it's a no brainer to offer my services in any way I can as I'd be doing something I love and that I'm good at. I feel not only am I doing something I love but I'm helping people, which is a big part of my values and who I am as a person. Knowing your pet (let's face it, your furry child) is in safe and happy is crucial - I believe I have the experience and what it takes to just do that.&nbsp;

I’ve loved dogs all my life, and that love grew even stronger because of my Pomeranian, who lived joyfully with me for ten years before passing away due to health reasons. Losing him was heartbreaking, but it also reminded me how deeply I connect with animals and how much comfort they bring. I truly believe dogs are the best beings on earth, and becoming a pet sitter allows me to stay close to that happiness while supporting owners who want their pets to feel safe and cared for. I have experience looking after dogs for friends and neighbours, helping with walks, feeding, playtime, gentle routines and general daily comfort. I enjoy getting to know each dog’s personality and making sure they feel understood and relaxed. For safety, I only take vaccinated pets into my home. I offer a calm, clean and friendly environment where every dog is welcomed with genuine love and attention.


Hi, I’m Jasmine—an experienced and genuinely passionate animal lover dedicated to providing the highest level of care for your pets.

I have hands-on experience working with a wide range of animals through my time volunteering at both a sanctuary and a zoo, where I developed strong skills in animal care, behaviour understanding, feeding, and grooming. Alongside this, I’ve provided reliable dog sitting and home visit services, giving me a well-rounded understanding of what pets need to feel safe, happy, and comfortable in their own environment.

I believe every pet is unique, so I tailor my care to suit their individual personality, routine, and needs. Whether it’s long walks, playtime, enrichment activities, gentle training, or simply providing calm companionship, I always ensure your pet feels loved and secure while you’re away. I’m also confident with administering medication and maintaining established routines to minimise stress.

Your pet’s wellbeing, safety, and happiness are always my top priorities. I treat every animal as if they were my own, offering not just care, but genuine affection and attention.

I understand how important it is to feel confident leaving your pet with someone you trust, and I aim to give you complete peace of mind. I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your pet, learn their routine, and become a friendly, reliable presence in their life.



My approach combines reliability and a gentle, nurturing demeanor. I am skilled in feeding, walking, and administering medication, and I take pride in maintaining a safe and stimulating environment for pets. I have experience with [specific types of pets, e.g., dogs, cats, etc.], and I enjoy engaging them in activities that promote their happiness and well-being.
I believe that each pet deserves individualized care, and I am committed to ensuring they feel comfortable and loved while their owners are away. I would love the opportunity to contribute to your pets’ happiness and well-being. 
I pride myself on being reliable and attentive. I offer daily updates and photos to pet owners, providing peace of mind while they are away. My goal is to create a safe, stimulating environment where pets can thrive. I enjoy engaging pets in activities that promote their happiness, whether it’s long walks, playtime, or simply cuddling on the couch.
In addition to my hands-on experience, I am also trained in pet first aid and CPR, giving me the confidence to handle any emergencies that may arise. I understand the importance of maintaining a routine that aligns with each pet’s needs and preferences.

Hey there, my name is Kirsty! I have been working in the animal and veterinary industry for over 10 years. I have experience working with both exotic and domestic animals. I also have my recent canine/feline first aid certificate.During my visits with your fur pets, I will provide food, water and of course enrichment and play time. I can give medication if needed and make sure your pets are well cared for.I am always more than happy to send photos and videos of your loved fur kids to keep you updated while you are away, to ensure reassurance and peace of mind.Please let me know if I can help you and your fur kids I am unable to board any pets at the moment, but more than happy to travel to you and care for your pets in their own homes. More available on the weekends, but happy to organise weekly stays if needed.I look forward to meeting you all!&nbsp;
