"Cassie and Lucy took excellent care of my elderly dog, my cat, and my house! They even dealt with a boiler crisis while I was away in a different time zone, helping to resolve it before I returned. My pets have special needs, and it's hard to find such conscientious sitters. I will definitely be relying on them to petsit again."

"We had the absolute pleasure of having Kate look after our beloved Marley while we were away for a day, and we couldn't have asked for a better experience. From the moment she arrived, Kate brought a calm, gentle energy that Marley instantly responded to. he absolutely loved her company and it was clear they formed a sweet bond. What really set Kate apart was her communication. She kept us beautifully updated throughout her stay, sending photos of Marley enjoying his day, whether he was snuggled on the couch or in the garden. These little snapshots were such a comfort and brought a smile every time. Kate took exceptional care of Marley, treating him with the same love and attention we give him ourselves. She was attentive to his routines, mindful of play time, and made sure he felt safe and relaxed in his own space. It's such a gift to know your dog is being cared for with genuine affection and responsibility. We wholeheartedly recommend Kate to anyone looking for a trustworthy, kind, and capable dog sitter. "

"Alice was an absolute lifesaver, stepping in to house sit for my cat and large dog on short notice over the holidays for two weeks. She was fantastic! From the very beginning, her communication was top-notch. During our meet and greet, she took the time to properly introduce our dogs, as I didn't mind to let her dog stay over if they got along. Throughout her stay, Alice provided daily updates with pictures and videos, which was incredibly reassuring. She went above and beyond, especially when unexpected delays extended my return. I can't thank her enough for her flexibility and support. Despite having two dogs who love muddy adventures, the house was spotless when I returned, just as I had left it. I highly recommend Alice for her exceptional care and dedication."

"We had such a wonderful experience with our pet sitter! She took amazing care of our two cats while we were away, and it was clear how happy and comfortable they were when we returned home. She kept the house spotless and in great condition, which we really appreciated. We especially loved the daily updates and photos—those made us feel so much more relaxed and reassured during our holiday. Coming home to two happy cats was the best feeling. Highly recommend!"

"Leah as just spent the week house sitting for our cat. She has looked after both the cat and house brilliantly! We had regular photos and updates, and despite being quite shy and nervous, the cat was following her around by the end of the week. We will definitely be asking Leah to sit again, it made the week so much easier knowing he was being so well looked after. "

"Rachel was great at coming to meet the dogs prior to her stay. She was extremely gentle and friendly towards them as they can be anxious and scared. Rachel did everything we asked and managed the house well when we were away. Very happy we found someone trustworthy and confident with our much loved dogs."

"Excellent dog sitters - I am very anxious about leaving my dogs in other people's care but the guys made me feel more confident and the dogs seemed to relax with them (even the one who doesn't always warm to people he doesn't know!). I will definitely be using Matt and Rob again."

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 Ilkeston 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 Ilkeston.

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 Ilkeston 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 Ilkeston on Pawshake. Over 394 pet owners in Ilkeston have left a review, with an average of 4.95/5. All paid safely using Maestro, Visa, Mastercard, American Express
