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 Kingston upon Thames that can help?”.

Luckily, with Pawshake, you can easily find local and trusted pet and dog carers from Kingston upon Thames 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 Kingston upon Thames. 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 Kingston upon Thames. 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 Kingston upon Thames.

Hello everyone,&nbsp;
I am Liv from Hungary, been living and working here close to a decade now. I have grown up with dogs and cats and pretty much a house full of animals.&nbsp;
My current lifestyle (I travel a fair amount) doesn't allow me to have a little friend myself, but I very much miss this company from my everyday life. I regularly look after my friend's dogs (the 2 Frenchies on the pictures) and those are the best times.&nbsp;
I got stuck in Hungary during the pandemic when my Mum decided to have a dog. I was adamant I could maintain a healthy distance to this cute little puppy once I needed to head back to the UK. oh boy... how wrong I was... Because of how the lockdowns worked out I spent way more time out there than planned. She became my little companion on my everyday walks (which obviously became her favourite thing) and invested a lot of time in training her (and the family)..&nbsp;
She fell gravely ill in December 2022, I threw everything and flew out straight away and the coming 2 months we were trying everything we could in our power to save her. Thanks to the amazing veterinary team (the vet is her favourite place now) and her stubborness she is fully recovered. Along with that she is now on a special diet and every breath of hers is very closely monitored by the family.&nbsp;
All this experience gave me a new aim, I would like to take on a dog training course and potentially later therapy dog course and leave my current corporate job while helping others taking care of their pets.&nbsp;
I will only take care of vaccinated dogs and cats.&nbsp;

About the services:
Monday-Wednesday - I am only able to take home visits and walks outside of my working ours (working hours 9-5.30pm locally), but able to do housesitting if you are happy for me not to be present during my working hours.Thursday -Sunday - Able to provide doggy daycare along with the other services as I am working from home on those days.&nbsp;


I have many years of experience with dogs.I grew up with a Hungarian Vizsla and my love for dogs started there.&nbsp;
Since living in England I did not have my own dog, but I’ve been looking after friends and neighbours pets for over 10 years while they are away.&nbsp;
I also volunteer for the Wimbledon Greyhound Welfare where ex racer dogs are waiting for their forever homes. I found it very rewarding.&nbsp;
I’m working at a Dental Practice Monday to Wednesday and it is giving me a great opportunity to do what I really love, to look after dogs over the weekend in my free time.&nbsp;
Also available on Bank Holiday Mondays.&nbsp;
I’m currently enrolled to canine courses such as dog psychology, canine behaviour and welfare.
I'm fully insured, also have clear DBS certification, clear driving license and I do own my own car With compliant insurance. 
References are available on request&nbsp;



&nbsp;Hello I'm James,&nbsp;
I'm a Consultant that mostly works from home in Kingston Upon Thames, just across from Fairfield Park. I live in a flat and sometimes travel for work so can't have my own dogs. As I really miss having a furry companion so offer my services to help those busy, unable or in need that are nearby. Depending on my work schedule I can offer a range of local services such as:&nbsp;
 Full day supervision at my flat with entertainment throughout the day.&nbsp;
 Tailored pet check-in's; This could include feeding, letting them out, play, photo/s and videos of your pets. &nbsp;

Background I grew up around dogs and love to get out for a walk come rain orshine. I love getting out in nature and can offer walks to suit from 30 minutesand beyond. To give you full peace of mind, I am happy to have a pre-meet prior or equally we could go on a walk together. My rates and services are flexible so please feel free to get in touch to discuss your requirements. I understand how important our furry friends are and will tailor and treat them like my own. &nbsp;&nbsp;


I am a responsible and fully experienced pet sitter looking to care for your animals.&nbsp;
I've cared for cats, dogs, birds and rabbits and taken on extensive responsibility for animals with health conditions, therefore have no issue with providing medication where required.
I've volunteered for animal charities caring for rescued bears, elephants and monkeys and raised funds for vet fees. I love animals and have grown up with cats and one rabbit. I miss the company of pets and enjoy every opportunity to greet cats &amp; dogs in public!
I have often stayed overnight at pet owners' homes with their dogs, cats and kittens.
For boarding at owners' homes; as I work from home 2 days per week, I will be available mornings and evenings with 2 full days at the home. Weekends will be for longer durations at the home and can be flexible depending on pet owner requirements.
My services also include dog walking (up to one hour twice per day for up to two dogs per time) and I can deliver medication where required.
Please note my services do not include boarding at my home. Owners are welcome to drop their dogs off at my home for walking if this is easier. I live near to some lovely parks.
I drive and can be flexible with locations. Communication with pet owners is key and I always provide regular updates and photos of their pet whilst they are away.

Five years ago I left a stressful job in London in a move to improve my own well-being. I joined an amazing local school and at the same also adopted a beautiful Siamese Ragdoll cat.&nbsp;
Finding huge well-being benefits as a cat owner, I came upon the notion of catsitting whilst looking for someone to take care of Luna when we went on holiday, and decided to begin catsitting myself,  as a hobby.&nbsp;
Five years later and I'm an experienced catsitter, and have an established catsitting business named HappyKatz.
Being around animals is hugely cathartic and having found huge wellbeing benefits from looking after so many amazing fur babies, I am now expanding to offer dog walking services in Kingston and Surbiton. 
Given that I work in a local School and can offer dog walking at the weekend and during school holidays. My favourite part of my school day is walking our school dog!
I can collect and drop off your fur baby from/to your home, and walk in the local parks. 
Dog walking for the love of dogs. 


I am I reliable and resposible person who is in love with animals, specifically dogs. I am looking to make a little extra money aside my other part time job while I am studying. I am studying sport and exercise science and would love nothing more than to get moving with a good walk, and what better company to have then a furry friend! I grew up with 2 dogs during my childhood, both of them being boxers. I can handle high energy dogs and love the quirky personalities. Along with this, I have had friends and leave their dogs with me when they are traveling. I am organized and have good time management, whether this be with feeding schedule or admistrating medication. I have done pet sitting for friends and families at their houses too - in particular looking after my brother's 3 cats and their 3 foster kittens when they had them. I would love to look after your pets and give them the good exercise and fresh air that they deserve!


Hi, I am Beata, an SEN teacher/tutor with some extra time on my hands.
With more than 6 years of experience with our lovely greyhound, I am well-acquainted with their unique needs. I know that their care requires a special approach, as they tend to be shy and can feel overwhelmed in unexpected situations. Creating a calm and safe environment is essential for their comfort, as well as, patience and understanding play a significant role in earning their trust. I believe in approaching them gently and giving them space to initiate contact when they're ready. Through my experience, I've learned that praise, affection, and gentle handling make them feel at ease. Understanding their body language is vital to recognize any signs of anxiety or discomfort. My time with Molly, a shy, beautiful and very complex greyhound, has equipped me to provide your beloved greyhound with the utmost care and affection.
They say you are either a dog or a cat person, but I love them both. Having enjoyed the incredible companionship of our cherished cat, Snow-white for an exceptional 19 years, and currently sharing my life with the playful siamese mix, Hummus, I truly understand the unique personalities and requirements of our gentle furry friends.
Conveniently located near Bushy Park, I am delighted to offer dog walking and day visits besides pet sitting, tailored to suit your schedule abd your pet's individual needs. From administering medications to providing gentle bandage changes, I am experienced in handling special requirements.

Growing up around dogs and other animals was the best thing about my childhood and later years. I am an all-round animal lover, from diving with sharks to having my own dog, to having stick insects as home pets! 
I am self-employed so I'm very flexible with time and will work around you &amp; your pets schedule.
I have life-long experience with dogs as well as taking care of my neighbours' cats when they're away. 
I can sense the pet's disposition and love letting them show me their personality traits, and take a personal approach to interacting with each pet!
Getting my own dog, or a couple, is my biggest and most realistic dream for the near future. Unfortunately for now, I'm not able to commit to getting one as I'm out a lot - and i don't have the heart to leave a dog on its own for hours. That's why pet-sitting is a perfect option for now - I can still be around all that love and excitement a pet brings to your life!

 Hello, my name is Anhelina, but you can call me Angie or Angel:) That's what my friends call me. I love dogs, and they worship me! Check out the gallery to see four labrador puppies sleeping in my arms or a sassy German shepherd sleeping like a baby next to my shoulder. People say dogs sense good people:)
As for my experience, I owned a dog for six months. Her name is Daisy, and she is a mongrel. Unfortunately, because of the war in Ukraine, I had to move, so now she lives with another family. Of course, when you have just moved to another country, you are unlikely to get a pet while you get used to it and get back on your feet.
&nbsp;However, I miss the activities I used to do with Daisy: outdoor games, walks, etc. I miss this feeling of absolute happiness while spending time with my dog. But I can feel it while helping other owners with their pets.
I will be happy to help you if: 

  You need a person to walk your dog&nbsp;(for 1-2 hours,( £15 per hour) up to 5 times a day). I can take your dog for a walk nearby or the nearest park/quay.
  A person to visit your dog 1 or 2 times in your home;&nbsp;I’ll stay for an hour. Besides caring for your dog, I can also water your plants or collect your mail, for example.
  If you need someone to stay with your dog in your house while you are away. I am available for an overnight or an 8-9 hour day stay, which includes two walks. If you require a 24-hour stay, the price will be double.
  If you have any other instructions regarding home security measures apart from locking the doors, I will follow them to ensure the safety of your home.
  And I used to care about a dog with heart issues. He had to take one particular pill every evening. So, if your lovely friend has something similar, I can administer medications.

I am available the whole week, except Thursday, from morning until evening.
What I'm NOT doing: 

  Trainings or grooming 
  I cannot provide dog boarding or doggy daycare because my housemates are not comfortable with dogs in our house.


I'm Jon (34), an economist living in Kingston with my wife Celine (a solicitor, 33). We have a two bed house with a nice garden and bifold doors that are open from spring to autumn. We also live next to Fairfield park which is perfect for walks. I work from home 5 days a week and my wife 2 day so there is always someone here. &nbsp;
We recently fostered my friend's elderly cat Zibbi and miss having her in the house. She was very high maintenance as she needed a lot of meds and attention so we are confident that if we can look after her we can look after anybody.&nbsp;
I grew up with dogs and my wife cats and we just love hanging out with them. We don't yet have kids and our carpets and furniture are all a bit old and tired so we have the perfect house for pets to feel at home in. I think we have a window in our lives where things have come together so that we can pet sit and it probably won't be this way forever. Any pets that spend time with us will be showered with so much love and attention.&nbsp;
We’re both very active and always get our 10,000 steps in so any dogs staying with us can look forward to some big walks. We’re also not far from Richmond Park. We’re very open minded about the pets that come and stay with us. Obviously it will have to work for both parties and we'll be open about anything we are not confident with. We will need to take it slow to begin with and probably only work up to boarding with pets that we have got to know a bit. We'll also only be able to look after one pet at a time to begin with.


Hi my names Jasmine and I am a 21 year old female living in Greater London. I own a jack russell terrier myself and I got him when he was a puppy. He really saved my life and brings me so much joy and happiness still to this day; I can imagine this is the same with your own pets so you wouldn't want me to leave them in the hands of a complete stranger who has no idea what they are doing. Rest assured - I have been around dogs all my life and have always had a love for them that's just kept thriving. I would want to care for you pet/s as I do my own following any training or rules you have in place for them. Id like to walk or care for them exactly how you would so that feel the most at ease and are never nervous. I have a canine first aid qualification with a certificate and I have insurance to cover me to provide these services for you. 

Hi! I'm Lucy!
I'm a 28 year old dog-lover currently living in Surbiton. I grew up in Brighton and moved up to Kingston for university 8 years ago, and never looked back!
I am self-employed and work from home, so have a very flexible schedule, which allows me to pop out whenever I like for a dog walk or home visit. I live with my dog Toby, and my husband in our semi-detached home, which has a large open plan space leading to a fully secure garden. Previous to owning my own dog, I have looked after the dogs of friends and family, and was a walker on borrowmydoggy.
The services I can provide currently are dog walking, home visits and day care. I enjoy long walks in the park or forest, and have a car so can take your pup on some fun walks a bit further afield! I can also offer urban walks or a stroll in a local park, depending on your dogs needs. If a short play session is more appropriate I also offer home visits, so if you have a puppy or senior dog I can keep them company for a while and have a good play!
If I'm looking after your dog for the day, they will be kept company by my own dog Toby, who loves to play. I have a large downstairs area where the dogs have free reign, which leads out to a spacious fully enclosed garden. Toby is very friendly, but can be seperated during the day if your dog needs some quieter time.
I am keen on training and learning fun tricks with my own dog, so do let me know if there are any things you are working on at home and I would be more than happy to maintain this training during visits, walks or day care.
I would love to meet any prospective clients in advance, so do get in touch to arrange an initial visit, I am happy to answer any questions beforehand via message to ensure I am the right fit for your dog.


As a dedicated animal lover, I have always found joy and fulfillment in caring for pets. Growing up surrounded by dogs, cats, and even smaller critters like hamsters and birds, I developed a deep appreciation for the unique companionship and happiness animals bring into our lives. This passion has driven me to pursue pet sitting as more than just a job—it's a way for me to connect with animals on a personal level and provide them with the love and attention they deserve when their owners are away.

My motivation as a pet sitter stems from a desire to ensure the well-being and comfort of every animal under my care. I prioritize building trusting relationships with both pets and their owners, emphasizing open communication and reliability. Whether it's daily walks, playtime, or simply offering companionship, I strive to create a safe and nurturing environment that allows pets to thrive in the absence of their families. I take great pride in being a responsible and compassionate pet sitter, dedicated to making a positive difference in the lives of animals and their human companions.
I'm available every day after 5 PM and have full availability on weekends. I can stay in your house for as long as needed, balancing my responsibilities as a full-time teacher from 8 AM to 5 PM. I'm experienced in administering medication and grooming pets, having cared for animals throughout my life. I can feed your animals, take them for walks, play with them, enjoy long walks in the park, and even bathe them. I'm very flexible and willing to accommodate your needs. Just let me know what you require, and I'll be happy to help!
