"I am so glad I picked Teresa to be my cat sitter. She looked after my cat as if he was her own. She kept me updated throughout my holiday and also sent me regular photos. I have no hesitation in recommending Teresa to anyone looking for a loyal, friendly and caring pet sitter. You won’t be disappointed."

"We feel truly lucky to have met Bess. When our previous sitter had to take some time off, we were quite nervous about finding someone new — especially with three cats at home (one adult boy and two lively kittens). But from the very first visit, Bess completely put our minds at ease. She’s patient, caring, and incredibly reliable. All three cats warmed up to her straight away, which says a lot! She took the time to play with the kittens, keep their feeding routine consistent, and make sure our older boy got the calm attention he needs. The updates and photos she sent were lovely and reassuring — it was clear they were all happy, safe, and well cared for. Bess has gone above and beyond every time. We honestly couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and feel so lucky to have found her. Highly recommended to anyone looking for a kind, trustworthy person to care for their pets."

"Sarka took phenomenal care for our 3 cats.. her care and dedication meant me and my husband could enjoy a week a away without any worry. When we got home our cats were in a great mood and everything was clean and tidy. Usually when we go on holiday our cats are grumpy but they clearly enjoyed having Sarka around because they were very relaxed when we returned home. Will definitely use Sarka again if she hasn’t been put off by our loud Bengal. :-) x"

"Emma was a great sitter for our recent trip. She visited us on short notice when our old sitter was unavailable, bonded immediately with my cat who is normally fussy with strangers and did a great job keeping her well and socialised while we were away. She also kept in contact with us. Would definitely recommend and we are hoping she will be our regular sitter now! Thanks Emma ☺️"

"We had to change a sitter as the person we used to use is retiring, we are people of habits so the fact we had to find a new person was a bit stressful but we are so happy we found Emily. She is such a warm and kind person, our cats love her. Poppy that is very anxious cat and never come out of her hiding place, is very comfortable around Emily from day 1. Our cats are very well looked after and dont think they miss us while being under Emily’s care"

Why pet sitting ?

When you have to go away or work long hours, you may worry about leaving your pet home alone. Have you ever wondered “Is there a pet or dog sitter in Colchester that can help?”.

Luckily, with Pawshake, you can easily find local and trusted pet and dog carers from Colchester to provide drop in visits and other services. This means a pet sitter will come and visit your pet at a time you both agree on and provide lots of love and personal attention. This can include playtime in the backyard, a walk to the local park, or just some cuddle time. Our pet carers can also administer medication, give food, and refresh the water bowl.

In home pet sitting services are a great way to break up the day and enrich it for your pet. Pawshake pet sitters have extensive experience caring for a range of pets including dogs, cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, birds and more. If you have multiple pets, home visits are a great option to ensure that they all get a visit and lots of attention during the day.

Drop in visits are the least stressful option for your pet because your pet can stay in their favourite environment – their own home in Colchester. Their surroundings will be familiar and our loving and passionate Pawshake sitter will spoil them each day. Our sitters will treat your home with respect and are flexible with timing, requests and durations. All this can be discussed before you make a home visit booking.

Pet boarding is a great option for when you are away for a few days and your pet needs overnight care. Unlike pet hotels, Pawshake pet boarding allows you to arrange a personalised daily routine for your pet, whether this be extra belly rubs, playtime or 24 hour supervision. Your pet will stay with the pet sitter in a cosy home environment, rather than a large, impersonal pet hotel.

So whether you need just one day, a week or even a month, you’ll be able to find an experienced pet or dog carer to accommodate you and your pet’s needs in Colchester. The best part is that your Pawshake pet sitter is from your local neighbourhood, so they will be familiar with the area.

Our pet carers also have a range of experiences which include puppies, seniors, nervous pets and dog training. So if your pet has special requirements, you’ll be sure to find a pet sitter that is a good match for you.

Your pet’s safety and welfare is a big priority for us, which is why all of our Pawshake pet sitters undergo a strict vetting process by our trust and safety team. At Pawshake, we understand that you might feel a little uneasy allowing a pet sitter to enter your home or arranging pet boarding at their place. This is why Pawshake pet sitters also have reviews from other pet parents that are publicly available on their profile for you to read.

Each pet sitting home visit and pet boarding booking made through Pawshake is covered by the Pawshake Guarantee, which includes veterinary coverage, customer support 7 days a week and more. Rest easy knowing that your pets will be well looked after by one of our expert pet carers in Colchester.
