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 Portishead 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 Portishead.

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 Portishead 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,  I'm Lyndsey, Animals have always been part of my life since childhood — I've owned two gentle, loving cats along with a labrador. I now live with my partner and our wonderful border collie, so I’ve years of hands-on experience across all kinds of personalities. I am calm and attentive: I give nervous pets space to settle, keep energetic dogs safely engaged, and adapt fully to their routines, habits and preferences. I offer 30-minute walks or cat care. I know exactly what to do in an emergency — I keep vet details handy, stay alert for any changes in behaviour, and would contact you straight away if anything seems off. I’ll send regular photo updates and messages so you’re always in the loop. I'm available most days including weekends, I follow every care instruction — diets, medication, special needs. Your pet’s comfort, safety and happiness always come first. I' m happy to meet before booking!&nbsp;
Please note that I cannot have pets at my own home at the moment.&nbsp;&nbsp;


I am a veterinary nursing assistant with hands-on animal care experience. Trusted to look after family and friends dogs, including puppies, with confidence and compassion. 

I currently work full-time so, I'm available for pet sittings on weekends and potentially willing to offer some evenings visits during the week once I have gotten to know you. I'll always make sure your pet gets plenty of care, attention, walks and company. If you need pet sitting or dog walking in the week please do reach out to me as some days I am off work due to holiday allowance!
I work a mixture of shift patterns including 7.30am-4pm, 8.30am-5pm and 10.30am-7pm working Monday - Friday. If you require any care, such as puppy drop in visits, cat visits or dog walking outside of these hours, please do drop me a message I'd love to help!

I'm unable to host pets in my own home, due to having 2 family cats, but I'm very happy to care for them in their own home environment. I'll follow your pets usual routine, feeding schedule and any special instructions to keep them comfortable, safe and stress-free. I'll be sure to keep you updated with pictures of videos of your pet as frequently as you desire!

I am able to cater to your dog's specific needs, whether that be continuous training or any medications that your dog may be on. With regards to walking, I have experience with all ages and sizes and can alter any walks around your preferences. Whether that be a 60 minute walk or a 30 minute walk for a younger dog I'm happy to help! I have experience with all ages of dogs but do specifically love young dogs and puppies because of their playful and energetic side!

In the case of an emergency, I'd be sure to let you know straight away. I am in the BS9 area, willing to travel a few miles but ideally would be close to home. 

&nbsp;Hi, I’m Meg, an animal lover with lifelong experience caring for dogs, and I would love to help look after your pets. I have grown up surrounded by dogs and currently have two family dogs: a Dalmatian called Daisy and a rescue black Labrador called Toddy, both of whom I adore and care for. Having them has given me hands-on experience with feeding, walking, playtime, and understanding different personalities and energy levels. I have also completed two weeks at a doggy daycare, where I worked with many different breeds and temperaments, helping me become confident and adaptable. I am reliable, caring, and patient, and I always treat every animal as if they were my own. Whether you need walks, feeding, or general care, I would love to help and ensure your pets feel safe and happy. Please feel free to reach out, I’d love to meet your pets!


I am DBS checked  certificate can be seen in photo gallery.￼
I offer drop-in visits, feeding, fresh water, litter tray cleaning, playtime, cuddles (if your pet enjoys them!), and regular photo and video updates so you can see how they’re getting on while you’re away. Visits can be tailored to your pet’s routine, whether that be a 30 minute visit or 1 hour they need a quick check-in or a longer visit with plenty of company and enrichment.
I mainly care for cats and have experience with indoor cats, senior cats, and those that require daily medication. I also have good experience with kittens. I understand that every cat has their own personality, so I’ll always take the time to earn their trust and care for them in the way they’re most comfortable with. I’m also happy to look after small pets such as rabbits, guinea pigs, and hamsters.
As a full-time postman, I’m available every morning before work and every evening from 4:00 pm onwards, as well as weekends. This makes me ideal for pets who need reliable morning and evening care while you’re away.
I care for pets in their own home, where they can stay relaxed in familiar surroundings and keep to their normal routine. I’ll treat your home with the same respect and care as I do my own, ensuring everything is secure, clean, and exactly as you left it. My aim is to give you complete peace of mind, knowing your pets are safe, happy, and receiving the love and attention they deserve.

Hi! We are Albert and Cami, a couple who travels full-time while caring for pets and homes across Europe.
Caring for animals is not just something we do, it is the lifestyle we have chosen. We have over 15 years of experience looking after pets, and during the last two years we have specialised in full-time pet and house sitting, creating a safe, loving and reliable environment for every animal we care for.
We have experience with dogs of all sizes, breeds and personalities, from playful puppies to senior dogs needing extra patience, gentle walks and special care. We have also cared for cats, including rescue cats, and other animals such as horses, chickens, tortoises and small pets.
Our services include dog walking, home visits and house sitting in the owner's home. We always follow each pet's routine, including feeding times, walks, playtime, medication (when needed), grooming and plenty of affection.
We understand that every pet is unique. Some need lots of attention and play, while others need more time and space to feel comfortable. We always respect their personality and build trust at their own pace.
Communication is very important to us, so we love sharing updates, photos and videos with owners so they can feel relaxed knowing their pets are happy and cared for.
We do not offer care in our own home because we specialise in caring for pets in their familiar environment, where they usually feel safest and most comfortable.
We would love the opportunity to meet your furry family member and provide them with the care, love and attention they deserve.


Hello! I’m a passionate pet lover with a lifetime of experience caring for dogs and cats. Growing up surrounded by animals, I developed a deep connection with them, learning how to keep them happy and healthy. At 18, I started walking my neighbor’s dog, transforming her into a more energetic, healthier pup through regular walks and care. That experience inspired me to pursue pet care full-time. Now, I’m thrilled to offer dog walking and pet sitting services at your home, tailored to your pet’s unique needs.  I’m active, happy, trustworthy, and dedicated to making every moment special—whether it’s long walks, playful fetch, or cozy cat cuddles. I’m pursuing a pet care certification to enhance my skills and provide top-notch service. You’ll receive regular updates and photos, ensuring peace of mind. Let me bring joy and comfort to your pet’s day!

Hi my name is marina I have been pet sitting for several years and love looking after animals and there needs .I first started out by looking after three whippets,as my main business is house cleaning but my client needed someone to look after her dogs so I jumped at the chance and I loved it ,taking them on long walks and also I had to gave meds to one of them so have experience in all different aspects of pet sitting . For example one&nbsp; of the dogs cut there leg and I knew&nbsp; my client had some antiseptic&nbsp; spray so i administered the spray on leg. My preference is to come to your house and look after your pets as I have cat myself and couldn't have any animals at my house.i have sat for&nbsp; a couple of people&nbsp; now ,I can get refences if needed im a honest reliable ,caring&nbsp; person ,and&nbsp; i have relevant insurances&nbsp; so im looking forward to hearing from anyone who requires my services im happy to meet up and discuss any questions you have before .my services are looking after your pets in your home .I bring all my food, bedding to stay!I will care for pets to my very best&nbsp;
