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 Portsmouth that can help?”.

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

I have cared for animals since the day I was born. I grew up around large dogs (mastiffs) and love cuddles with small lap dogs. I help out with my brother's dog who has epilepsy, so I am confident administering medication and spotting the early signs of a seizure. Throughout my life, i have owned many cats and kittens. I currently own a handsome ginger boy called Romeo. I have also looked after chickens, guinea pigs, tortoises and fish. No pet will be left unloved! 
I will respect your home and keep it clean and tidy. I will ensure your pet has everything they need to feel happy and safe. 
Please let me know if your pet has any medical requirements, behaviour or specific needs I should be aware of. No pet is too big or small, I will love them all! 
I look forward to hearing from you and helping you and your pets out :) 

*I am relocating to Portsmouth in May and will be restarting my dog walking business there, so cannot take on new regular London clients at this time*I have loved dogs all my life and grew up with various breeds including a Labrador, Border Collie, Grey Hound, Lurcher, Springer Spaniel and whippets. Since I started walking dogs in London 4 years ago I have looked after many, many other breeds though, from Bichon Frise to Bernese Mountain Dog and I think all breeds have their own lovely special qualities. I particularly love Staffies for instance and am very confident with any strength or size. Every dog has their own wants, habits and physical limitations so I tailor walks according to that particular dog's needs (be it a high-powered walk covering lots of ground, lots of ball play or a very slow meander close to home) therefore I don't offer pack walks. If there is more than one dog from the same household of course and they enjoy walking together then that is different and I am very happy to walk more than one in those situations.So if for whatever reason you are unable to take your furry best friend out as much as you would like to or need someone to dog sit while you are away or just at work please get in touch!Happy to provide references upon request.

My family and I are lifelong dog lovers — the kind who believe there’s nothing better than a snuggly pooch curled up beside you. We both grew up with family dogs, and my own beloved dog passed a few years ago. While we aren’t able to have a dog full‑time due to our work schedules, I’m a full‑time teacher and use my summer break to fill my home with wagging tails, happy paws, and plenty of cuddles.
We regularly care for our in‑laws’ Shih Tzu and Toy Poodle, as well as a friend’s Cockapoo, and we treat every dog like a cherished member of the family. I pride myself on providing attentive, gentle, and genuinely loving care — the kind of care I’d want for my own dog.

A typical day with me is calm, structured, and full of affection. I wake at 6:30am and start the day with a gentle fuss and a trip into the garden for a toilet break. At around 7am, as my husband leaves for work, I take the dog out for an early morning walk. I do this intentionally before the day warms up, giving them a refreshing, comfortable start. When we return home, breakfast is served exactly according to their usual routine, and fresh water is topped up throughout the day. The morning is relaxed and homely — lots of cuddles while I get housework done, with dogs welcome to snooze on the sofa, potter around the house, or enjoy a bit of playtime or enrichment depending on their personality.

Late morning or early afternoon often includes a family walk with my children, giving dogs extra exercise and stimulation. On cooler days, we sometimes head to the beach for a breezy walk and a change of scenery. The afternoons are peaceful and cosy; I settle down with a warm cup of coffee, and dogs usually curl up beside me for a long nap. When my husband returns from work, we head out for an evening walk together, followed by dinner, more cuddles, and a calm, comforting bedtime routine.

During the summer, I am home full‑time, so dogs are rarely left alone. If I do need to step out briefly — for groceries or a quick errand — dogs are left for no more than one to two hours, and only if owners are comfortable with this. I follow each dog’s feeding schedule precisely, whether they eat raw, kibble, or wet food, and I can confidently administer oral medication if needed. Any special routines, from cooling mats to favourite toys or crate naps, are happily followed.

Your dog’s safety is always my priority. I keep emergency contacts and vet details easily accessible, monitor dogs closely for signs of stress or overheating, and never allow off‑lead walking unless the owner has approved it and the environment is safe. I carry water, treats, and waste bags on every walk, and in the event of an emergency, I act immediately and contact the owner straight away.

In my care, your dog can expect a loving family home, plenty of exercise tailored to their needs, a predictable routine, constant companionship, and endless affection. I genuinely adore dogs, and I will treat your pooch like one of my own — maybe even better.

Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover who’s been raising dogs since I was 14—now 25 and still completely obsessed with all things furry (and feathery!). Back home in Myanmar, I had a Golden Retriever, Husky, and Poodle, and I miss them every day.&nbsp;
I’ve also cared for cats, birds, hamsters—even a rabbit or two! Being around animals makes me feel at home, and I’d love to turn that passion into something meaningful while I’m here. Whether it’s walks, cuddles, or just being their new best friend, your pets are in loving hands with me!
With me, your pet gets more than just a walk—they get a buddy! I offer fun, safe dog walks, playtime, feeding, cuddles, and care A typical day includes tail wags, fetch marathons, sniff-and-stroll adventures, and lots of belly rubs.I treat every pet like my own whether we’re chasing a ball or just chilling together. Basically, I show up, your pet lights up. Let’s be furry friends!


Hi there!
My name is Yasmin, and I’ve been surrounded by dogs my whole life. I grew up with a Labrador and a Great Dane, and later I had the amazing experience of living and training with a K9 dog. Over the years, I’ve learned how to connect with dogs of all sizes, breeds, and personalities — from gentle family pets to strong working dogs.

I’m very comfortable caring for both confident and shy dogs, including those who might be a bit anxious or reactive. I believe that patience, calm energy, and trust are the keys to helping every animal feel safe and happy.

I absolutely love spending time with animals and treat every pet as if they were my own. Whether it’s long walks, playtime, or quiet companionship, I make sure each dog feels loved, secure, and well looked after while their owners are away.

For vacation or overnight stays, it’s important that your dog is friendly with other dogs — as they’ll have my lovely dog Frida as a friendly companion. We live in a house with a secure, fenced garden, where the dogs can play safely and relax. To ensure everyone’s comfort and safety, your dog should also be vaccinated and house-trained.

I have always had a genuine love for animals, especially cats, which is why I chose to offer home visit pet sitting services. I understand that many cats feel most comfortable in their own environment, and my goal is to keep them relaxed, safe, and happy while you’re away. Being able to care for pets in their familiar surroundings allows me to maintain their routine and reduce any stress or anxiety.
My motivation comes from wanting to provide reliable and compassionate care that pet owners can trust. I know how important it is to have peace of mind when leaving your pet, and I take pride in being dependable, attentive, and respectful of both your home and your cat’s needs. Whether it’s feeding, refreshing water, cleaning litter trays, or simply spending quality time playing and giving attention, I tailor each visit to suit your pet.
I have previous experience caring for cats with different personalities and requirements, including shy cats, energetic kittens, and older cats who need a gentler approach. I’m patient, observant, and always focused on your pet’s wellbeing.
For health and safety reasons, I only care for vaccinated pets during my visits, helping to ensure a safe environment for every animal I look after.


I’ve always had a special connection with cats—their unique personalities, quiet companionship, and independent yet affectionate nature truly resonate with me. Growing up in a household with multiple cats, I learned early on how to care for them, understand their body language, and respect their space. Whether it's feeding, grooming, playing, or simply providing a calm presence, I enjoy every aspect of being around cats.
My motivation to be a cat sitter comes from both my love for felines and my desire to help cat owners feel at ease when they're away. I know how sensitive cats can be to changes in their environment or routine, and I take pride in offering gentle, reliable, and attentive care that keeps them feeling safe and comfortable in their own home. Every cat is different, and I take the time to get to know each one individually—because they deserve nothing less than thoughtful, loving care.
