"Julia is the most incredible dog sitter. She is attentive, kind, and very thoughtful. Our 2-year old dog Watson had the best couple of days with her, and we received daily updates with photos/videos of him. Our house was immaculate when we got back. If you're looking for a dog sitter, we can highly recommend Julia. We'll definitely be booking with her again in the future. Thank you so much, Julia!"

"I cannot recommend Bobbi highly enough! They cared for my dogs for two weeks, and the love, attention, and professionalism they provided were truly remarkable. From the moment we met, it was clear they had a genuine passion for animals, and my dogs instantly warmed up to them. During their time together, Bobbi kept me updated with regular messages and adorable photos, which reassured me that my furry friends were happy, healthy, and being pampered. They followed all instructions perfectly, ensuring my dogs’ routines and special needs were met with care. Coming home to happy, relaxed dogs was the best feeling, and I’m so grateful to Bobbi for making it possible. If you’re looking for a trustworthy, reliable, and compassionate dog sitter, look no further. Bobbi is a gem!"

"Laura is a fantastic sitter. She stayed overnight at my flat for two weeks to take care of my cat, she gave excellent care and attention to my cat as well as kept flat in excellent condition. Would love to have her sit for me again. Thanks Laura! 😊"

"Amber is a star. simple as that. This was our first year of using a dog sitter so we were a bit apprehensive about it. she made the whole experience so easy. From the initial meet and greet to the day she left. she always communicated with us, asked questions, was amazingly professional throughout everything The house was impeccable on our return and our dog looked like he'd had the time of his life with her. All is all i couldn't recommend Amber any higher. We will definitely be looking to use her again in the future."

Mandy's professionalism and dedication were truly impressive, and her attention to detail and thorough communication made us feel at ease while we were away. We are thrilled to have found such a reliable and trustworthy cat sitter in Mandy and look forward to booking her services again in the future."

"Stephen house-sat while we were on holiday, looking after our 3 cats and very elderly dog who needed daily meds and a lot of TLC. He gave us daily updates, (including pictures), and went above and beyond to make sure that Sparky was comfortable so that we could have peace of mind while we were away. Nothing was too much trouble and it is clear that Stephen really loves animals. I would highly recommend him to keep your home and pets safe. "

Our golden retriever has epilepsy and is on quite a lot of medication, and Jill managed his medication perfectly. She also took them out for a walk each day. Jill left the house nice and tidy and clean. Thanks for looking after our dogs and house so well Jill. "

"Natalia was a superb dog sitter in our house. She communicated with us daily sending photographs and messages about our dog which made us feel really reassured. When we returned our dog was happy and healthy and had clearly been very well looked after. Also our house was spotless with a vase of flowers! We really could not have asked for anything more. Thank you Natalia and we will definitely ask you to look after our dog again. "

"Millie looked after Harry at my house for two weeks while I was away on holiday. From our first telephone call, then meet up and arriving home last night, Millie has been absolutely fantastic. Friendly, warm, kind and caring, she sent me lovely pictures and videos of her stay with Harry. It was so reassuring that both got on so well and Harry loved every minute. House was left clean and tidy, and I will definitely 100% use Millie again and keep in touch as friends. 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟"

"Jess is the first dog/ house sitter we’ve ever used, i immediately warmed to her at our first meeting as did Rex after the initial protective barks! She is very relaxed, friendly and followed all my instructions correctly, she took rex on some great walks, watered some plant pots which i didn’t have time to do before leaving, she was reliable answering messages promptly and sent some lovely photos of rex at home and on walks looking v comfortable and happy, which made me relax and enjoy our time away! she also dropped rex at my parents with the kids on the last day and they said Rex turned up very happy and seemed he loved his weekend with Jess. We have already booked her in again for when we’re away next! We are so pleased to have found a great local dog sitter. Thanks Jess! "

"Emily did a wonderful job looking after our dog and two cats for a weekend. She was punctual, took on board all instructions for the care of the pets and house, and kept in communication the whole weekend. I felt very relaxed knowing that she was taking care of the pets, and came back to very happy animals and a clean home. I hope we can book her next time we go away!"

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 St Albans 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 St Albans.

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 St Albans 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.

Pet owners book house sitting in St Albans on Pawshake. Over 2243 pet owners in St Albans have left a review, with an average of 4.97/5. All paid safely using Maestro, Visa, Mastercard, American Express
