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 Hockley 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 Hockley.

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 Hockley 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 there I'm Christina the Rochford District Dog Walker
I am currently transitioning from a professional corporate career to dedicate myself fully to my passion for canine care. As a mother and a lifelong dog owner, I understand that your dog is a cherished member of your family. I bring a high level of organisation, reliability, and professional integrity to my work, ensuring your pet is safe and well cared for while you are away.
My experience is built on years of personal ownership and caring for the pets of friends and family. I am experienced with a wide range of breeds, but I have a particular love for Jack Russell Terriers. I enjoy their spirited personalities and the unique energy they bring, and I am very comfortable managing the "terrier attitude" with patience and consistency. To ensure I provide the best possible care, I am currently studying for my Level 3 in K9 Care and Welfare (VTQ).
My Routine and Care Approach
I believe that a consistent, predictable routine is essential for a dog's well being. During a typical home visit or walk, I start with a thorough safety check of your dog’s lead and harness. We will head out to local spots for exercise and mental stimulation.
After our walk, I ensure paws are wiped, ticks are checked for, and fresh water is provided. If I am sitting at your home, I strictly follow your dog's feeding and garden schedule to keep their stress levels low.
Safety, Trust and Training
Your dog’s safety and your home's security are my absolute priorities.

Vetted and Insured: I am fully DBS checked and operate with comprehensive pet sitting insurance.
Emergency Prepared: I am VTQ K9 First Aid trained and I carry a pet specific first aid kit on all walks and have your dog's veterinary surgery details.
Specialised Care: I am very comfortable with various temperaments. For nervous dogs, I use a patient, low-pressure approach to build trust at their own pace.

I pride myself on clear, professional communication and will provide you with regular photos and updates throughout our time together so you have total peace of mind.
Walks are 30 minutes from your home but if you need longer please let me know.
Only your dog will be walked.
Pack walks are coming soon.
I know my pup loves a good hour or two!
Thank you for your support


My husband and I are keen adventurers we love walking, nature and cosying up to watch a movie. We are very disciplined with pet routines and are very keen to spoil them with lots of affection once they warm up to us. I have owned numerous pets including aquatic pets  (fish/axolotl), birds(budgies), rats, and chickens since childhood. All of which have lived well past their maximum life expectancy, and have had positive reports from their vets. I have even managed to travel with my pets they settled well. We love pets and would love to own more if we could move to a bigger space (dog or cat). My husband and I would love to travel the uk more and we are open to any setup. We are currently only available during school holidays due to our work. Please get in touch, we'd love to consider your pet sitting request. We are offering house and petsitting opportunities during school holidays; we would love to travel away from our local area and are open to UK wide bookings.


Hi! I’m Martina and I am passionate about animals and caring for them.&nbsp;
Having worked in an office for over 20 years, I decided last year that it was time to pursue my own interests by working with animals, providing them with the same care and attention, as I do my own.&nbsp;
I have been brought up with animals throughout my life, including dogs, cats, birds, hamsters, ferrets and fish. In addition to this, I volunteer for Cats Protection, German Shepherd Dog Rescue and Hockley FerretRescue.&nbsp;
Fully insured, first aid trained and DBS checked, I can provide continuity and excellent care tailored to your pet’s individual needs, as I am available throughout the week, weekends and for overnight stays.&nbsp;&nbsp;
I can provide solo dog walking, pet minding in your home and welfare visits. I'm happy to care for senior pets; those that require medication; or pets with special needs, behaviours or disabilities.&nbsp;
Whatever your requirements, I would be happy to meet and make arrangements to suit you. Please let me know if you have any special requests at the time of booking and during our introductory meeting, in order that I can ensure your pets are given the best service.&nbsp;&nbsp;


I gave up my office job to do something I love and I love animals and being outside especially in nature. I get to take dogs for walks and hang out with cats and other animals which is fun and rewarding. I've been dog walking and pet sitting for almost 2 years now and I care for your pets and your home as if they were my own. I grew up with dogs and cats in my home, so I have lots of experience. Unfortunately I cannot board any animals in my home as my cat would never allow it but I can come to your home. I offer dog walking, pet visits and house sitting and if you require it overnight stays as well. I am available morning, afternoon and evenings. I'm based in the South Benfleet area and I can travel around 2 miles to clients homes. I walk 1-2 dogs at a time and only if you're comfortable with another dog accompanying your dog on a walk. The dog walks are from an hour but if they are not comfortable going for walks I'll be happy to play with the pets/ keep them company in your home. During the pet/ house sit I will take in post, water plants, empty litter trays, refill food and water, take out/ bring in bins etc. I can stay with the pets for 1+ hours - all day. I usually take the dogs around local roads/parks on their walks depending on your preferences. I will adhere to any security requirements you need, i.e use of locks and alarms. If you'd like to know more please get in touch.&nbsp;


I trained as a Vet for 4 years in my younger years before moving to Sports Science, but my love for animals has always remained.
I’ve worked in vets, farms, college, kennels/ Catteries, pet shop, grooming parlour and many more.
I’m unable to stay at a clients home overnight, however I do offer day care at the clients own home Mon-Fri at set times. No longer then 10 hours.
I’m super flexible during the weekdays (daytime) and can also be available for some weekends.
I’m self employed so my schedule is under my terms.
Weekends are only available booked 3 weeks in advance &amp; are charged at higher rate to weekdays, £50 weekday, £65 weekend.
If you would like your dog(s) walked I charge  £15 per walk / per hour. If you have 2 dogs from the same household it will be reduced to £10 for the 2nd dog.
I visit the owners home ahead of the sitting to become familiar with the animal &amp; build trust with it within its own home. There is no fee for this provided it is less then 5 miles away.
