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 Newmarket 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 Newmarket.

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 Newmarket 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.

I am a responsible, reliable and physically active PhD student with lots of pet experience and a flexible routine that can work around you. After several years on Trusted Housesitters and many 5* reviews (see my photo gallery), I'm hoping to look after some pets closer to home in my spare time!&nbsp;
DOGS: I have experience looking after many breeds and sizes of dogs. I grew up with family spaniels from pups, and have since looked after schnauzers, beagles, bedlington whippets, lab-pitt mixes, terriers, as well as a range of rescue dogs. I'm comfortable working with and handling puppies, anxious dogs (including separation anxiety) and leash-reactive dogs. I have experience giving medication and doing the more menial tasks of dog-ownership including post poo-roll baths, teeth brushing, and anal gland excretion...you name it! I'm an active person and will keep your canine pal happy and exhausted with walks in all of Cambridge's green spaces, cuddles and fuss, and routine-respectful housesitting. I've lived in Cambridge since 2017, so I know all the good walking and running routes!
CATS: I have catsat extensively for friends and those on Trusted Housesitters, in the UK, New York, and New Jersey. I have a knack for reading a cat's behaviour, from whether it wants to play or have some alone time. I'm extremely comfortable with litter boxes, indoor/outdoor cats, and all kinds of play.&nbsp;
I'm available in the Cambridge area for dog walking, cat visits, and cat/dog homesitting. I'm house proud and a keen gardener, so I will water your plants and take care of your home like it's my own. I research and teach for the university, so my schedule is flexible as I mostly work from home. I think and write best with an animal by my feet and I'd love to make friends with yours!

Having lived on a farm, I've grown up surrounded by animals. I've cared for mammals, fish and reptiles and have experience taking care on animals for multiple days, including overnight as well as taking them for long and short walks. I love animals deeply and find it not only fulfilling but fun to care for them.
I'm available for dog walking, overnight stays and day stays in the holidays; this includes, Summer holidays, Christmas holidays etc. I'm happy to walk up to two dogs depending on their personal needs; for example, if a dog is more of a handful I would prefer to walk them alone to make sure I give them the attention they need. When it comes to day/overnight stays I'm happy to watch over and care for a variety of animals, including dogs, cats and other pets at a time and have done this for long periods before. The most animals I have cared for at a time are two dogs, three cats and two musk turtles.
I take caring for animals very seriously and try my hardest to make sure they get the care they need. For walks I bring treats and a small water bowl to make sure they do not get overheated and are rewarded for good behaviour. When it comes to day and overnight stays I make sure I know the animals routines; for example, their feeding times, bedtime, times they like to go for walks, how to keep them calm and what often triggers them. When it comes to reptiles and fish I also check their water and or tank temperatures to make sure they are in the safe zone, I also check that their heaters are working properly.

Hello, I'm a very responsible, energetic, and organized person! I love animals, especially dogs, and I'd be happy to help whenever you need it I can help you with any pet. I love caring for animals while the family travels, but I also work with short walks.&nbsp;
I have references if you need them, as I've been doing this for over four years, so I have plenty of experience.&nbsp;
I had four dogs before moving to England, and this is how I cope with missing them. I'd love to walk them, board them, feed them, or even bathe them if necessary.&nbsp;
Your pet will be great with me, and I'll be even better with them. They'll be filled with love, affection, and attention. Please note that prices may vary depending on your pet's size or the length of the stay. If you have any special requests, don't hesitate to ask, and I'll always do my best to help.
I am free 24 hours a day, that's my job. I love pets, so l always have a friend to take care of and give love to.
I take the pets for regular walks to burn off their energy. I'm always home so they won't have to be alone. I administer medication and bathe them if requested. I send photos regularly to most owners to help with how much they miss their pets.
I look forward to hearing from you.
With love

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.

When I was 5 years old, I moved to Uganda where we were given 12 dogs to look after. Over the course of 4 years, they had puppies which as a young kid, I was very excited to raise. The dogs were mainly all German Shepherds. Once we moved back to England, we got a Staffie Cross who quickly became part of the family. I loved taking her for walks and keeping her entertained - she was a bundle of energy. I then moved onto to living with another Staffie and a lurcher, the lurcher being an old boy and needed lots of looking after. I have since looked after my extended family's cocker spaniel and cocker poodle by taking them for walks and house sitting for them. So in short, I have spent a lot of my life around dogs, I love the walking, playing and hanging out with them. I also absolutely adore cats as well and I am very comfortable with looking after them as well. I have been Pet Sitting since October last year and have lifelong experience with animals!&nbsp;I like to take long walks so I am very happy to take your dogs along as well. I can usually go for about 40 - 60 minutes (or however long you would like really!). Furthermore, I am also equally enthusiastic about sitting indoors looking after cats. I can change litter trays, take care of feeding, play with them and become friends. I am also more than happy to house sit and can take care of household tasks like taking bins out and cleaning as well as looking after pets. If oral medication is needed then I can administer that as well for cats and dogs.&nbsp;I want to be a pet sitter because I care very deeply for animals and their welfare. I love looking after them and understand how precious they are to their owners. I believe that animals are to be respected and treated with love and kindness.&nbsp;

I also would like to communicate with pet owners, if you have any additional requirements, please feel free to talk to me.

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! 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’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!
