When I arrived home she had cleaned up after herself.
I am so very happy with Wendy that I have booked her again. She is a top dog sitter. "

"Sasha was an amazing house/pet sitter when I went away recently. She took care of my girls so well. They both warmed to her straight away. I could tell that Sasha was an animal lover and felt an instant trust. My apartment was left spotless and both my girls were happy. I will be using Sasha again. It's hard to find someone you can trust to look after your animals that you love so much. I'm so glad I found her. "

"Sam recently sat for my two scotties whilst we went away for 10 days. We couldn’t have hoped for a nicer person to care for them. She came and met them ( and me) a week or so before the sit and right away she had a great rapport with them,they immediately relaxed with her and I felt confident that they would be well looked after.
This was definitely the case.We returned last night to two very happy chilled dogs and a lovely clean house!
Thankyou Sam!"

"From the outset, it was clear that Steve was devoted to the care of dogs. His own, and the care of mine. The meet and greet, he delivered information to substantiate his profile representations without hesitation and gave examples of his experiences with training difficult/needy dogs and situations.
The walk with all our dogs was fun and very safe. I knew at this point, my dogs would be in very capable hands. Our youngest dog has some territorial issues, this did not phase Steve at all, and he was completely aware of the causes and gave recognised advice (as per my training knowledge) on how to deal with the issues. Whilst on holiday, he updated us regularly and additionally handed over the care of the 3 dogs and cat to my mother. My mother said Steve was extremely accommodating. Arriving as soon as she rang him and offering to accompany her on some walks.
My dogs and myself have been on a couple more walks with both Steve, his wife and my partner. It is clear to see, that all the dogs enjoy being in his company. Moreover, little details, such as information on low fat treats are evident in his care of my dogs and their health needs.
I would definitely ask Steve to house sit again. I would have no reservations in recommending his services, especially if you need help with delicate situations or specialist care of a territorial dog."

"Where do I begin… Farhana is AMAZING. We were so nervous to have a brand new sitter come and stay at our house for 2 weeks but we are beyond thrilled to have found Farhana and any doubts we may have had were erased so quickly. We have a big Doberman who can be intimidating to people at first but is in fact a complete love bug and a kitten. Farhana sent us photos and videos of them every day all snuggled up with her and just knowing they fell in love with her and were being safe and cuddled made us SO happy and reassured. Not only could we tell how much our paw babies loved her but she is beyond professional. We have had extremely expensive “dog trainers” who house sat for us and let me tell you, Farhana exceeded them in every single way. I am yet to meet another sitter in the Berkshire area who is as professional, calm, prompt, communicative, positive and respectful as Farhana. On top of our four paws being loved our home was so looked after, we came home to a beautiful, freshly cleaned house that looked even better than when we left! Farhana went above and beyond in every way.
Obie and Tux could not have been happier than they were with her and the house looked amazing upon our return. We had constant contact and reassurance and knew that Farhana really cared. She picked up on their personality quirks almost instantly which showed how in tune with them she was. She took Obie on great walks and gave her the exposure she needed, yet she took no risks and kept them safe whilst also relaxing with them and spoiling them. This is very rare. If you are questioning hiring her - don’t. Thank you Farhana for everything."

"I am very grateful to Mads for cat and house sitting for me. My cat was happy, relaxed and very well cared for, and Mads kept me up to date with pictures and videos throughout my trip, which really put me at ease as I could see how content the cat was. For a rescue cat that can easily be scared and nervous with new people she took to Mads from the start. The house and garden was clean, tidy and very well looked after - as if I'd never been away. I find it very difficult to leave the cat so can't thank you enough Mads and won't hesitate to be in touch again for the next trip, of which I am much more comfortable planning having met you. "

"I cannot recommend Ashter highly enough! From the moment I booked, her communication was excellent - quick responses, clear updates, and genuine care for my pet’s well-being. Leaving your beloved pet with someone new is always nerve-wracking, but Ashter made the entire experience stress-free.
She treated my furry baby like hers, ensuring he was comfortable, well-exercised, and given plenty of love and attention. I received regular photos and updates, which reassured me that Joy was happy and in great hands. The little touches - like extra cuddles and thoughtful care - made a difference.
If you’re looking for a trustworthy, kind, and professional pet sitter, Ashter is the best choice. I’ll definitely be booking with her again! 🐾❤️"

Lives with 1 cat
"5 Star service provided ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
We were very lucky to book Fiona to stay at our house and look after our 9 year old cat Willow, whilst our family were away for 2 weeks recently.
Fiona is a thoroughly lovely, friendly and kind lady who absolutely adores animals. When Fiona visited us to meet Willow before we went away, she asked lots of questions about Willow, her routines, her likes and dislikes, so she could look after her as we do.
She took amazing care of Willow, not only doing the basic duties of feeding , litter duty and daily brushing, etc, Fiona gave Willow so much attention, playing with her and sitting with Willow in the garden when Willow wanted to be outdoors…. You could not get better care for your pet…
During our time away, Fiona messaged daily giving updates and sending through pictures and videos reassuring us that Willow was settled and ok. Willow instantly bonded with Fiona and was completely happy and content the whole time we were away. We came home to a very happy cat.
Fiona was also very respectful to our home and it was immaculately clean on our return.
I highly recommend Fiona and would instantly book her again when we go away on holiday. I am also happy to supply a reference to anyone who is considering booking Fiona to care for their pet in the future.

"Nathan was a great dog sitter and our two dogs really liked him. We met him in advance and had no hesitation leaving him in charge of our dogs and house. Nathan came after work each evening staying over night. We did arrange for a neighbour to let them out at lunchtime, but Nathan walked them each day. We look forward to using him 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 Shinfield 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 Shinfield.
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 Shinfield 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.
