"We have found Wendy to be an excellent dog and cat sitter. Wendy kept us informed throughout and our two dogs and one cat were very well looked after. Wendy gives confidence in her capabilities to take great care of out pets and our home. Even though Wendy does not drive this was not a problem at all. Thank you Wendy "

"Jennifer was fantastic. She provided overnight pet-sitting services and was truly second to none. Entrusting someone with both our home and our beloved pet is something we don’t take lightly, but from the very first meeting, she radiated trustworthiness, warmth, and professionalism. Throughout her stay, she sent us regular video updates and communication, and it was genuinely comforting to see how content and relaxed our cat was in her care—something we recognized from his behavior and body language. Beyond the excellent care she gave our pet, we returned to a well-looked-after home that reflected her respect for our space. I would wholeheartedly recommend her services to anyone and we’re already looking forward to booking her again."

"Zoe did a super job of looking after our cat.. our cat was very unsure of a stranger in the house and this did make things tricky. She wouldn’t come in one evening and Zoe did all she could to support us in getting her back in. Unfortunately our cat really didn’t take to having a cat sitter staying in the house so Zoe ended up coming in to feed am/pm for the remainder of the time and this worked out just fine, Zoe did an awesome job in a very difficult situation and we were very grateful for the constant comms and updates. We would happily use Zoe again for feeding our cat. "

"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."

"Alice looked after my two dogs at my house for 19 nights while I went on holiday. I was very nervous about leaving them because I haven’t done so before and they can be quite nervous as they are both rescued dogs. They can also be reactive to other dogs when out walking and I was concerned about someone else coping with this. Alice was great. She sent me messages and photos to let me know that everything was okay. When I got home my dogs were happy and healthy and had clearly been well cared for. Alice left the house clean and tidy. I won’t hesitate to book Alice again if I need a dog/house sitter in the future."

"Angela and Dave gave our boy Cosmo amazing care. He had an injury (thereby having stitches/cone) only a few days before our 5 day trip. This necessitated additional care requirements, but they were very understanding about it and were amazing support. They were very communicative throughout their sit and were amazing overall."

"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."

"Harry and Vinnie were fantastic sitters. They really made an effort to get to know what the dogs needed and liked and I felt the dogs were really looked after as opposed to just ‘sat’. They came over before to meet us and kept in touch during the sit, even dealing with a house issue with no fuss. And they left everything spotless. I would highly recommend them!"

"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! 🐾❤️"

"Michelle and Paul looked after our pets and house very well, and tidied up after themselves. Michelle sent regular photos and updates while we were away, which was very reassuring. All pets were clearly very happy with them (dogs, cats, parrot), and took to them immediately! I would recommend Michelle and Paul."

"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. Kim….07778032989."

"Ingrid and Tonia house sat whilst we went abroad for a week, looking after our 15 week old puppy and cat excellently. Our puppy was unfortunately poorly whilst we were away and Tonia was wonderful with her; adjusting her food/routine accordingly until she was better. They sent us daily photos and updates on both pets, keeping us reassured the pets were happy and safe. Tonia very kindly stayed at our home later than originally agreed when our return flight was delayed, ensuring our pets were cared for at all times. Would highly recommend!"

"Jess was looking after Ollie for 10 days whilst we were on holiday. Ollie is a dog reactive rescue, so it’s challenging to take care of him. I cannot praise Jess enough, she has been amazing! I received pictures and updates of Ollie every day and I am sure he was entertained and kept busy as when we got home he was nice and calm. I could straight away walk with him and didn’t lose his focus. Jess really knows what she is doing, and she follows the dogs schedule. Our house has been looked after as well! 😊"

"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. "

"Having had huge reservations about hiring house/pet sitters for the first time I was immediately reassured by Zsuzsa and Clive. They took good care of our dogs, other pets, garden and house, sending daily messages and photos while we were away which put me at ease. We came home to a house exactly as we had left it and a pair of dogs that seemed to be missing their new friends! Thank you both so much, I would thoroughly recommend you."

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 Swallowfield 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 Swallowfield.

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 Swallowfield 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 Swallowfield on Pawshake. Over 718 pet owners in Swallowfield have left a review, with an average of 4.96/5. All paid safely using Maestro, Visa, Mastercard, American Express
