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 Histon 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 Histon.

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 Histon 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.

Hello! My name is Emma and I'm originally from and currently living in Cambridge and working In a boarding school for international students. I am crazy about animals, and I have grown up with many different cats, dogs, hamsters and guinea pigs.I have experience caring for cats, not just my own, but for friends and family members who have trusted me to look after their pets when on holiday. I have also worked in a petshop and as a dog walker.I've always been especially passionate about cats and at the moment I have a beautiful tortoiseshell cat who is 15 years old and I adore. I think that each animal has its own unique personality and it is important to adapt your care according to their specific needs. As a calm person I also find this helps animals in my company to feel safe.On pet visits I can offer feeds, changing of water bowls, cleaning litter trays, plenty of cuddles (if the animal is comfortable of course) and play. I am happy to discuss other requests according to individual needs.At the moment I am working Full time Monday to Friday from 8.00am-4.00pm so I would be available to visit in the evenings and I am more flexible at weekends.I will stay at least 30 minutes per visit, but happy to discuss timings with you.Please feel free to contact me if you would like me to help you care for your precious pets, and I look forward to hearing from you

I have over 10 years of pet sitting experience and have cared for animals my whole life. I’m confident with feeding, grooming, administering medication, and adapting to different routines and personalities.
I regularly help friends with dog sitting and walking, and I’m comfortable caring for well-behaved dogs. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or keeping them company, I focus on making sure they feel relaxed and well cared for.
At home I have four rabbits, so I’m very used to caring for animals and paying close attention to their needs.
I have a flexible schedule, so I can fit pet care easily into my day. I’m available for morning, midday, and evening visits, including weekends, and I make sure to plan my time so each pet gets the care and attention they need.
I try to keep things as close to your pet’s normal routine as possible so they feel comfortable and secure. I’ll follow your instructions carefully for feeding, care, and any specific needs.
I’m very respectful of people’s homes and always leave things clean and tidy. I’m also happy to send updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pet is doing well.I keep a close eye on behaviour and wellbeing, and I’m comfortable giving medication if needed. If anything seems unusual, I’ll get in touch straight away.



I am a new petsitter seeking to help look after your pets in the summer.
Hello. My name is Candice and I love animals. I grew up having pets at home. We used to look after cats then when our neighbour's dog gave birth to a litter of puppies, we adopted 2 of them. Love their rambunctiousness and sweetness. My sister brought a labrador puppy home in 2008 and fell in love with her from day 1. She sadly passed away in 2018. She was a cute little destroyer. My sister now has a fur baby called Hello, an Americal bully. He has an instagram account and I chat to him regularly. :)&nbsp;
What motivated me to become a petsitter was the rewards you get from looking after them. They are the nicest bosses to have. Sweet, cuddly and playful. There is hardly any dull moment being with them.&nbsp;
My previous experiences of looking after pets were from family and friends. I have pet sit for my sister when she went on  holiday and looked after my former father-in-law and former sister-in-law's pets when they were away.&nbsp;
Unfortunately I can only offer dog walking, home visits and house sitting as my landlord does not allow pets in the flat.&nbsp;
Please send me a message if you are interested.&nbsp;


Hi there! I live in Soham with my dog and my son. I have had my own dog, a labrador, for 5 years, and he is as boisterous and friendly as anyone!, as well as walking dogs for my friends.I have a relatively small garden, but I live minutes away from acres of fenland, fields and parks which are perfect for dogwalking. I love dogwalking, and walk my dog twice every day.If you would like me to look after your furry friend, please get in touch, and feel free to ask questions.

I'm new to Pawshake but have experience walking and sitting dogs on another platform!
I am a proud owner of an English Pointer energetic enough to run around the world! This experience has taught me how to care for large dogs (30kg +) and the exercise and mental stimulation required for high energy dogs.
From a child, I grew up looking after my grandparents 6 Springer Spaniels (YES, all 6 of them!!) which taught me the skills to look after multiple dogs (3/4) at the same time and how to deal with the challenges associated with this. Additionally, frequently looking after friends and family dogs over 15 years has exposed me to a wide range of dog breeds, big, small, energetic and docile. To list a few.... Labrador, Cocker Spaniel, Bull Dog, Labradoodle, Maltese, Vizsla, Border Collie, and many more!!!
My day usually starts early (around 7 am) which means I'm available for morning walks. I'm a PhD student at the University of Cambridge so available all year round and have a fairly flexible schedule so can pop over during lunch to take care of your dog if needed. Additionally, am available after work and anytime on the weekend so I am flexible to work around you! I currently live in student accommodation so I am unable to house pets, however I am more than happy to come to your home for sitting.
As a proud owner of a large gun dog (English Pointer) I am well experienced in how much exercise is required to keep large dogs entertained! I love to go for long walks in the beautiful Cambridge countryside and stroll through the fields. I am happy to Taylor each day to your dog's personality and needs weather thats playing tug of war, a long game of fetch or just attention and cuddles.
If you need any more information don't hesitate to reach out! I am confident looking after all dog breeds, sizes and personalities with my priority to always make your dog feel comfortable and cared for.

Hello I'm Damiano, I run a professional dog walking and sitting business called Whittlesford Walks with my wife Alice. Our dog walking and sitting business was born out of bringing our first family puppy home, a miniature longhaired dachsund called Oscar.&nbsp;
It was through teaching him and learning how to walk him etc that we found our love for dogs and need to give them the best. Since opening our doors in 2020 we have grown slowly but surely giving the best care and attention to all our dogs. We are fully insured and have great knowledge of breeds and temperaments.&nbsp;
It's our goal to treat your pet as if they were being walked/looked after by you yourself. We like to give engaging and enriching Walks whilst have the utmost fun. So get in touch with us today and see what we can do for you and your pup.&nbsp;
We promise you won't regret it 

I’ve grown up surrounded by animals since I was a child, and I honestly can’t imagine my life without them. I know exactly how hard it is to leave your beloved companion with a stranger—it's a huge act of trust! That’s why I make it my mission to treat every guest as if they were my own family, providing a warm and stress-free environment.With me, your pet will never feel lonely. We’ll enjoy fun adventures at the park, long cuddle sessions on the sofa, and I will strictly follow every one of their feeding and resting habits to ensure they feel completely at ease. To keep you relaxed while you're away, I’ll send you daily photo updates and sweet videos of our time together, so you’ll never miss a moment of their day. I’m committed to providing a "home away from home" experience where your pet feels safe, happy, and truly loved. I’m patient, attentive, and ready to adapt to any special needs your pet might have.I can’t wait to meet your best friend and become their new favorite human!

Hello! I’m a veterinarian with over 30 years of experience working with dogs and cats.I currently live in the Newmarket area and share my home with two French Bulldogs and four cats - so caring for animals isn’t just my career, it’s my daily life and passion. Because my own pets thrive best with a calm household routine, I don’t usually offer boarding, but I’m always happy to discuss exceptional or individual situations. My main focus is high-quality, reliable home visits and pet sitting in your pet’s own environment, where they feel safe and relaxed.
🩺&nbsp;
Why choose me as your pet sitter?
 Veterinary knowledge you can trust With three decades of clinical experience, I’m confident caring for pets of all ages - from healthy, energetic youngsters to seniors needing a little extra support. I can safely administer medications, provide first aid, and monitor pets with medical or behavioural needs.
 Experienced with all personalities I’ve worked with thousands of dogs and cats over the years, including anxious, shy, reactive, elderly, and special-needs pets. I always adapt to each animal’s pace and comfort level.
 Genuine love and respect for animals Your pets will receive the same level of calm, compassionate care I give my own. I always aim to build trust - and I’m very patient with nervous animals.
 Flexible &amp; reliable Whether you need holiday cover, daytime visits, medication visits, or help during long work days, I offer flexible, bespoke care around Newmarket and nearby areas.
 What I offer

Home visits (cats and dogs)
Dog walking (gentle or energetic - tailored to your pet)
Medication administration (oral, injectable, topical)
Senior-pet care
Extra monitoring for pets with medical conditions
Feeding, litter tray care, enrichment, and companionship
Regular photo updates and communication
First aid support and travel to the vet when needed.

Boarding may be discussed case-by-case, depending on suitability and the needs of my own pets.&nbsp;
My commitment to you
I know how much your pets mean to you - I feel the same way about mine.
I’m here to offer safe, skilled, compassionate care so you can enjoy peace of mind whenever you’re away.
