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 Shirley 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 Shirley.

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 Shirley 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 and welcome to Louise’s Pet Care.
Caring for your pets with compassion.
I’m Louise, a Registered Veterinary Nurse from the Midlands. I have worked within the Veterinary profession for 20 years.&nbsp;
In 2015 I gained my Level 3 Diploma in Veterinary Nursing
In 2019 I gained my Post Graduate Certificate in Anaesthesia (NCertAnaesth)
I love all aspects of nursing but my favourite areas of interest are Anaesthesia and nursing senior patients.&nbsp;
After 20 years in the Veterinary industry I decided I wanted to focus on providing individual pet care for owners when they need it. Combining my skills as a Veterinary Nurse and genuine compassion for animals. In January of this year I started to offer Pet care services and have been pet sitting, dog walking and providing drop in visits to pets regularly. So far this year I have done Pet Sitting for 32 dogs and cats in different areas of the Midlands. I enjoy this part of the my work as I like to explore new places, meet new people and spend time looking after different breeds and different animals.

During my 20 years within the Veterinary industry I have worked within many Veterinary settings including:

Charity practices&nbsp;
I have worked at a busy emergency hospital in Brisbane, Australia. This was amazing to nurse cases that we don't see in the UK. I learned so much and absolutely loved the opportunity to live and work in Brisbane.

I pride myself on taking care of animals to my very best standard, and that is to each and every animal every time
How do my services work? During initial contact, I will send you some introductory information about myself and the services I provide. This information includes a Pet and Owner questionnaire which I ask is filled out as best as you can with as much detail as possible. This includes information about you, your pet's routine, and your pet's needs. It gives me all the information I need to provide the best standard of care.
I will then arrange a one-hour Meet and Greet with you, where I will meet you and your pets and discuss all details of the pet service you require. This gives you a chance to ask any questions and discuss anything you need with me. And gives me a chance to build an initial bond with your pet.
Once this has been complete I will finalise the booking. During this time I am more than happy for you to contact me should you need anymore information or a chat about your pet, please let me know if anything changes with regards to your animals health or your home/routine before I provide care. You can contact me by message or call.&nbsp;
During the duration I am providing care to your pet I will provide regular updates and I enjoy sending pictures of your pet and what they are up to, if you do not wish for regular updates, please let me know 


What makes me a responsible Pet carer?
 I am on the RCVS Veterinary Nursing Register
I pay yearly to keep my Veterinary Nursing registration and have to complete 15 hours of CPD each year in order to retain my registration
I am fully insured
I always ask that owners fill out a Pet and Owner questionnaire&nbsp;
I always offer a Meet and Greet prior to finalisation of booking
I have my own transport
I am able to medicate pets
I can provide references
I can show verification of my Veterinary Nursing qualifications and registration
I fill out a Pet monitor form each day to make sure each pet is eating, drinking, toileting and showing normal demeanour and behaviour. This helps monitor for any changes.

Do you have a holiday booked and need pet care whilst you’re away? Look no further.&nbsp;
I am able to provide care for your pets during weekdays, bank holidays, evenings, nights, and can provide last-minute care if you need it.
Do you work full-time or long hours? I can help care for your pets when you aren’t there.
One-off visits or regular care needed? I can also medicate pets and have an individual pet health care sheet I fill out each day/visit.

Who am I away from work? I love to travel. I have been fortunate to backpack around the world, both solo and with friends. One of my biggest travel highlights was backpacking across Japan for two months, it is an absolutely beautiful place.&nbsp;
I also enjoy going to antique and vintage fairs, finding new places for coffee and cake and reading. I love going to charity shops and being outside.&nbsp;
I currently don't have any of my own pets as I am still heartbroken over losing my cat and therefore it isn't the right time for me and my family. Over the years I have owner two lovely terriers, one border terrier and one parson Russell, two cats, two rabbits, three guinea pigs, three hamsters, three rats and plenty of fish.&nbsp;
Should you require information anymore, please contact me directly through here&nbsp;
I look forward to hearing from you 



Hi everyone! I'm an American living across the pond here in central Birmingham for about 5 years now. I have been dog sitting for about 4 years of my time here along with a couple years whilst I was at the University of Virginia in the states and plan to continue the journey here. My love for dogs has always been strong and I can't wait for the opportunity to look after yours. I was a 4 year athlete at my University and here in birmingham I also work part time whilst playing football so don't ever worry about the energy levels that need matching with your pup! Due to working part time my schedule is quite flexible so every pup will get the care they need or that you request including multiple walks in the city center or around a couple parks that are nearby, daily feedings ofcourse, personal playing time with whatever toys or treats they have, some chill time just laying down while I watch TV or on the couch, etc. I offer every service available on this app so you can trust me with anything. Working around a busy schedule should be quite manageable for us to figure out. I treat every dog as if it were my own so i'm hoping to hear from you all soon :) 

Hi, I’m Tee
 
 I’m a lifelong animal lover and a proud pet owner myself, so I know firsthand how much trust it takes to leave your pets in someone else’s care. Currently Being apart of the ItsNotADogKennel Team Alongside looking after my own &amp; previously building hands on experience through pet shop work placements and boarding environments, where I cared for cats, dogs, small pets, and even more exotic animals like birds, reptiles, and tarantulas.
 
 I’m reliable, patient, and detail oriented whether that’s sticking to feeding schedules, giving plenty of fuss and playtime, or keeping habitats clean and safe. With a background in customer service and volunteering, I’m also used to being responsible and approachable, which helps pets (and their owners!) feel at ease.
 
 I’m mainly available around Birmingham, Wolverhampton, Walsall, and surrounding areas, but can also consider further north/west locations for overnight care.
 
 I always treat every animal as if they were my own, and I’d love the chance to meet your furry, feathery, or scaly family members! ‍‍

Hello, I am a responsible and compassionate pet sitter with personal experience caring for cats. I currently own a cat and have previously cared for pet cats back home, which has helped me understand their routines, behaviour, and emotional needs.I am gentle, patient, and observant, and I always make sure pets feel secure in my care. I respect each pet’s individual personality and follow their usual routine as closely as possible to reduce stress while their owners are away.My motivation to be a pet sitter comes from my genuine love for animals and my commitment to providing dependable, high-quality care. I take pride in being reliable, organised, and respectful of both pets and homes. I have experience of pet sitting for my friends 2 cats. I am happy to look after vaccinated pets and will always prioritise their safety, cleanliness, and clear communication. Your pet’s wellbeing and comfort are my top priorities.

Hi, I’m Asam, a calm and reliable pet sitter based in Birmingham.

I understand how important it is for pets to feel safe, comfortable, and relaxed in their own home. My approach is patient, attentive, and consistent, which helps both energetic and more anxious pets settle quickly.

I have hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats, including larger breeds, senior pets, and more active dogs. I’m confident handling different temperaments and always adapt to each pet’s needs, whether that’s structured walks, playtime, or simply providing calm companionship.

During house sitting or drop-in visits, I follow each owner’s routine closely — including feeding, walking, cleaning, and any specific instructions. I also provide regular updates and photos, so you always have peace of mind while you’re away.

I stay calm and focused in all situations and can handle unexpected issues responsibly, ensuring your pet is safe, secure, and well cared for at all times.

My goal is simple: to give your pet the same level of care and attention you would yourself.


Hi there, pet lover! 
I’m Ekana, and we have one thing in common; our Love for furry animals! I am passionate about creating a happy, healthy life for pets and their owners. 
Growing up with a lot of pets gave me the years of experience working with animals and a deep understanding of their unique needs. I know that every pet is family, and deserves to be treated that way.
I understand how important it is to stick to each pet's routine, so whether it's providing personalised care, exercise, or simply giving your furry friend a little extra love and attention, I'm here because I genuinely care. I believe in building trust with both pets and their humans, creating relationships that go beyond just one visit. 
Your pet’s comfort, happiness, and wellbeing are always my top priorities. I’m not just offering a service, I’m offering peace of mind. Let’s make sure your best friend gets the very best!
