"Sarah was amazing with our 3 cats and 2 dogs. They can all be quite a handful but they were looked after with care and kindness. We were away for a couple of weeks and felt at ease knowing they were all in good hands. Sarah sent daily pictures, kept us updated on everyone, and was quick to respond to messages. The house was clean and tidy when we returned and the fur babies were happy! We'd happily ask for her help again. "

"Marcos was absolutely incredible, and I genuinely cannot recommend him highly enough.
Our trip came together extremely last minute, and we only knew a few days before travelling that we would actually be able to go. Despite the very short notice, Marcos was incredibly accommodating. He even came to our home the day before we left so I could show him everything, introduce him properly to our three girls and explain all of their routines.
We originally booked Marcos for around three weeks, but our plans kept changing and we ended up extending our trip several times — I think we extended his stay three separate times! Every single time, Marcos was completely flexible, understanding and happy to stay longer. Nothing ever felt like a problem or an inconvenience.
We have three dogs, and I will be the first to admit that they are not necessarily the easiest dogs in the world! 😄 Our girls are Chowskies — Chow Chow and Husky mixes — and with Huskies being famously known as escape artists, they have definitely inherited some of that independent and adventurous nature! They are strong-minded, each have very different personalities, and managing and walking all three of them is certainly not a small task.
I also prepare a very detailed care manual covering their feeding, vitamins and supplements. The girls have quite a few different vitamins, powders and additions to their food, so their routine isn't simply a case of putting some food in a bowl twice a day.
Marcos is honestly the first pet sitter we have ever had who followed my care manual completely and precisely. He took the time to understand everything and followed their feeding and supplement routines exactly as I had asked. This gave me such enormous peace of mind while we were away.
He was incredibly caring, patient and loving with all three girls. He walked them regularly and handled all three of them extremely well. His husband also came to help him, and they would walk the girls together, which was absolutely lovely.
One of our dogs is particularly shy with people she doesn't know. At the beginning, she decided that she simply wasn't coming back into the house and was quite happy sitting in our large garden! Marcos was so patient with her. He didn't force her or overwhelm her; he gave her space, took his time and worked with her at her own pace. Eventually, he got her comfortably back inside — and over the course of his stay, the two of them became best friends. ❤️
All three of our girls absolutely loved him. I could see from every photo how relaxed and comfortable they were around Marcos, and it was obvious that they felt completely safe with him. They were very well walked, beautifully cared for and, most importantly, happy and healthy when we returned.
And then Marcos did something I have genuinely never experienced with any pet sitter before.
Before we came home, Marcos and his husband actually washed all three dogs and brushed them! One of our girls was heavily shedding at the time, so anyone with a double-coated dog will understand exactly how much work that must have been. 😄 We never asked him to do this. They simply did it out of kindness and genuine care for the girls. I was honestly amazed.
And as if all of that wasn't enough, Marcos and his husband also kept our home incredibly clean throughout their stay. When we came back after being away for around a month, the house was just as clean and tidy as I had left it for them. Honestly, this is something I have never experienced with a pet sitter before. Coming home to three beautifully cared-for, freshly washed and brushed dogs and a wonderfully clean home was just incredible. It showed yet again how respectful, thoughtful and conscientious Marcos is, not only with the animals in his care but also with someone's home.
Marcos also went above and beyond in so many small ways. Whenever deliveries arrived, including dog supplies and our personal packages, he would collect them from our parcel shed and bring them in. Again, this wasn't something I expected or asked him to do, but it showed how thoughtful and attentive he was throughout his entire stay.
What started as a last-minute three-week booking eventually turned into us being away for around a month, and throughout that entire time Marcos took exceptional care of our home and our three girls.
For the first time in a very long time, I was genuinely able to relax on holiday. I wasn't constantly worrying about whether the dogs had been fed correctly, whether their supplements had been given, whether they had been walked enough, whether one of our little escape artists had decided to go on an unauthorised adventure 😄, or whether they were happy. I knew they were in incredibly caring and capable hands.
Marcos is patient, responsible, flexible, extremely attentive and genuinely loving towards animals. The level of care he gave our girls went far beyond what I would normally expect from a pet sitter.
I honestly could not have been happier with him. Amazing, amazing care from beginning to end, and I would absolutely trust Marcos with our girls again without hesitation.
I wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone looking for a truly exceptional pet sitter. Our three girls absolutely adore him — and so do we! ❤️

"I went away for a 2 week holiday and hired Paulina to look after my 2 cats. Paulina stayed overnight for 12 nights and sent me videos every evening and morning. We had great communication over WhatsApp and I video called her few times to speak with my fur babies. Both of my cats really took to her and even the younger one, who is usually really scared of new people, got used to her and would let her to pet her. Paulina did her job well and followed my insane instructions of 2.5 pages on how to look after my fur babies. I really appreciated her professionalism and patience as I found it very hard to leave my cats for such a long time. I would wholeheartedly recommend Paulina as a cat sitter. "

"Kat looked after our dog Milo for a weekend, staying at our home, and we were incredibly pleased! We felt very comfortable the whole time we were away, Kat kept us updated with how Milo was doing and sent us photos throughout the weekend - we also paid extra for Kat to clean our house whilst she was staying there, we returned home to a lovely and clean home and a very happy dog - would highly recommend Kat to anyone looking for a dog sitter.

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 Wareham 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 Wareham.
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 Wareham 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.
