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 Scarcroft 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 Scarcroft.

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 Scarcroft 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 I'm Emma, I'm 25 years old and currently working as a support worker! I live in LS9 with my two rabbits. I have loved animals since I was little and I have had rabbits since I was about 10 years old and love spending time with animals. I currently have 2 rabbits called Maggie and Big that I absolutely adore! Maggie is a mini Rex and Big is a continental giant! 
I work weekdays from 9-5 so I'm able to offer drop ins before or after those hours, I can take on bookings for people living around Leeds docks or east end park/Burmantofts as I don't have access to a car so cannot accept bookings too far away. I'm unfortunately not able to offer boarding or overnight care due to my commitment to my own furry companions.
Having grown up with rabbits and sharing my home with them, I understand the unique needs of small animals. In more recent years, I have lived with and offered care for cats, and have developed an understanding of their needs and feel confident in my ability to care for them! 
Although I love dogs, I have no experience of caring for them independently so I'm unable to offer dog sitting as you need to leave your loved ones in the hands of someone capable of providing quality care! 

Hiya! I'm Sula, a 2nd year studying economics at the University of Leeds. I absolutely adore cats. My family have always had cats, and we've had many characters in our house. Currently, we have Mr Tibbles, a large 11 year old tabby who loves to sleep. He is vaguely tolerant of our other cat, Mimi, who is a tuxedo. She's 10 years old, a rescue and has energy beyond her years. I have had some experience cat sitting, so I'm used to meeting new cats.Having had many types of cats previously, I'm comfortable with anxious cats, and cats who aren't too social. I have experience socialising cats, so I'm happy to put in that extra effort to make sure your cat is comfortable with me. Of course, I love affectionate cats, and will probably spend some time playing and stroking them! Regards to medicines, I am not too experienced, beyond crushing a tablet to mix with food and applying flea medicine, but please let me know if that's something you'd like.I love being a cat sitter as I truly adore cats! I will work hard to make sure your cat is happy, and will strive to make sure you are happy with the care I provide. I have catsat both in Leeds and London many times!Please don't hesitate to ask for a meet and greet before I care for your cat, I am absolutely happy to chat and put any worries to rest with you.One daily visit: £10 Two daily visits: £18 House sitting: £25 per nightA daily visit could consist of : feeding your cat, cleaning their litterbox, cleaning their eating area, letting them in/out, playing with your cat, taking photos for daily updates. I can also water your plants!


I've been a huge lover of dogs since a very young age.&nbsp;Once I was into the working world I didn't think twice about what I wanted to do.&nbsp;I've worked in variety of different groomers, helped out in group walks, had experince working in a Kennels. I also successfully ran my own dog boarding business for just under a year back in 2019.In my house, we have a dog named Murphy and a cat named Burrito. They get on super well and they are really chilled so another dog in the home wouldn't be a problem if that's a service you require. My house has great parks and moors within a 2 mile radius. Dogs can practically have the run of the house, and can stretch out on our leather sofas and chill after a good walk.I can offer basic grooming, so if your dog gets filthy I can give them a bath. I can only administer medication as well if this is applicable.I offer:Dog Walking, allowing your dogs to explore areas in and around Wakefield, walks can be be for half an hour to an hour, depending on your dogs needs.&nbsp;Dog Sitting &amp; Dog Boarding means I constantly providing love and care throughout the day, allowing your dogs to play, socialise and, of course, plenty of naps.Included in Puppy Visits and Cat Visits I would fed them if that's needed. Allowing them to go outside for a trip to the loo and of course giving them a good play.My lifestyle is super flexible at the moment so I'm fully able to dedicate all my love to your pups!

I have a genuine love and passion for animals. I truly enjoy spending time with them i find and being able to create bonds with them also i find it deeply rewarding to see happy, well-cared for pets. With a genuine love for animals and years of experience caring for pets of various breeds and temperaments, I understand the importance of providing personalized attention to meet each pet's unique needs. My reliability and attention to detail ensure that your instructions will be followed meticulously, and I will go the extra mile to ensure your pets feel comfortable, safe, and loved in your absence. Whether it's daily walks, playtime, or administering medications, I am committed to maintaining their routine and providing the same level of care and affection they receive from you. With me as your pet sitter, you can enjoy peace of mind knowing that your beloved pets are in capable and caring hands.

I am a cat owner and currently my 2 boys are 16. I've had them both from 6m from the Cats Shelter, I took 2 brothers as didn't want to separate them.Both are spoilt, enjoy weekly catnip sessions and have their own snuggle blankets and they get a groom once a week.I've walked dogs in my local area helping out when people have been busy, a couple of times per week walking off road on the moor, somewhere nice and quiet, green and away from traffic but also walks on trails and parks.I used to work at Guide Dogs for the Blind so always had a puppy or adult dog next to my desk, and I helped out in kennels - doing dog walks, cleaning, grooming, medication and taking temps. Quite often kennels were full and some dogs got scared being in kennels so I brought them home for the odd overnight stay giving them a break.I work F/T so would be looking to offer my services either in the mornings, evenings or weekends.  I'm looking for a few customers rather than lots so that so I can get to know each animal's personality, and likes etc. and build a regular customer base. I am hoping to do this full time at some point and feel it suits my personality as I'm caring, love animals,  a pet owner myself, a keen walker/runner and like being outdoors.I would be delighted to feed your cats, check they are ok and spend some time with them or take your dog for a walk and feed/groom them.I feel confident with most pets though don't have much experience of large/strong dogs so would prefer small and medium dogs. Thank you.


Hi, my name is Atif, I have a cat Emmy and she is amazing. I have cats&nbsp;since my childhood. I am a cat lover I know exactly what cat is saying, Meow sound.
I like cat sitting most, but do contact me if you have any questions regarding other pets or their care. Please accept my apologies; I am unable to care for dogs.
I will be taking care of your cat at your place when you are travelling or busy at work. At my visit, I will play with them, spend time, give food, change water, litter cleaning, brush hair any other thing you need. I will follow routine as you say. 
I'm also pleased to keep you informed about your pet while you're away. Messaging you with any updates, capturing photographs and videos of your pet, and sending them to you. I realise that even if they are just gone for a few hours, pet owners miss their fur babies a lot. I make you feel comfortable that your pet is being well cared for. I am sensitive and want to make other pet owners feel comfortable that your pet is properly cared.
I can do 1x or 2x visits per day. There are different charges on bank holidays and weekends. If you want I can do on your request, turn lights on and off, water your plants, etc. I look forward to speak to you. Thanks&nbsp;


Hello, I'm a pet sitter/walker based in Headingley and have two awesome rescue house cats. I offer services in the Headingley/Meanwood/Kirkstall areas. 
I have lots of experience with cats, dogs and rabbits as both an owner and sitter and I would love to help look after your pet(s). Message me if you have any questions and I'll aim to get back to you as quickly as possible.
In the past, I have fostered several rabbits whilst waiting on rehoming, adopted an old rescue bulldog and during the pandemic I took 2 house cats into my home for 6 months whilst their owners relocated. So, i'm well versed in looking after and caring for four legged friends.&nbsp;
As well as looking after animals I'm a dab hand at watering plants, taking bins in/out, picking up mail, parcels etc.
My preferences are&nbsp;

  home visits for cats, dogs, rabbits
  Dog/cat walking
  I can also transport pets too.

I can come to your home and I can spend time taking your dog for a walk, cleaning litter trays, feeding/watering and generally having fun playing with your pet and their favourite toys. Depending on your pets needs, I can take them for up to two walks per day and I'm happy to meet up with you a few days in advance of your trip to meet your pet(s).
References can be provided and I'm happy to have a chat on the phone as part of a vetting process. I'm very particular about who looks after my cat and understand that its important to do this.&nbsp;

I am a registered pharmacist and currently work as a self employed locum only part time. I have decided I would like some change in life and enjoy different experiences. I like to travel and I am dog lover, so the oportunity to travel around the UK combined with dog and house sitting seems like a great idea. I have been helping friends to look after their dogs for years, I walk nearly daily our friend's border terriers, I take one of them to camping and hiking holidays around the country. I love hiking and walking, I have also worked with horses and still enjoy horse riding on a regular basis. I would be able not only to look after a dog or dogs, but also horses. I have completed dog walking course. I understand how important it is for dog owner to make sure when away from a dog everything goes smoothly and stress free and to be informed, how the dog is doing.I do not mind travelling to different parts of the UK, I love Scotland for the hiking and walking oportunities. My schedule is quite flexible, I can book shifts when and where I wish, so I can make it work even quite far from my home address.

Hello, I am a new arrival in the United Kingdom. I have just started a job as a professor at the school of computing in the University of Leeds. Outside of work, my interests include travel and music: I played in orchestras for a long time, but these days most of my music-making involves the guitar, which I have been playing for about five years.Previously I lived in Wellington, New Zealand. My pet there was a 17-year-old cat named Wibbly. Wibbly moved in with me when a family friend was no longer able to look after him. He required medication every day for his hyperthyrodism and also needed a strict diet of renal-care food so I am accustomed to high-maintenance animals.I am trying to get to know the city of Leeds, my new home, and I miss the company of cats! So if I can explore some neighbourhoods while looking after pets, that would be all the better. I am interested in house-sitting for medium or long periods. I have experience with cats, but I also am very comfortable with dogs. I am neat and keep a tidy house. I feel that I can get on well with any pet, even if that means leaving them alone and respecting their space.


Hi. My name is Jess and I am 20. I have done one year of Animal Care. I have owned a dog and own a cat. Also walked friends' dogs many times.&nbsp;
I am willing to walk your pet, and take care of them at your house or just drop in for a visit. As someone who walks a lot I know multiple places all of varying lengths I can go to for walks with your pets to make sure they will be receiving the best enrichment possible. I love animals and would love a permanent job with them in the future, preferably the RSPCA. This is to help get experience and to understand the difference between each pet. Please feel free to contact me via text if you are in need of any more information.
My services are:
Dog walking between 1-4hrs:
I can take your dog on a walk in multiple places. All of varying lengths to fit the dogs needs. The places I will be going to will be Harewood House, Gledhow Forest, Thruscross Resovoir
Pet visits for check- ins 1-2 times a day:
Here I will come in to your house and visit your pet. I will stay for about 30-45 mins and feed, play and give them attention.
So to avoid wasting time I live in Harehills and do not own a car. This means you must drop your pet off with me unless you are within a suitable distance to walk. If a car will be used I shall be getting a lift from my grandparents who have joined me in walking people's dogs in the past and continue to do so. They also owned multiple dogs in their lifetime so understand the behaviour well.&nbsp;
