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 York that can help?”.

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

Hi! I’m Tomi, a university student based in York who genuinely loves spending time with animals. I recently lost my own dog, and would really like to be able to interact with other pets! I’ve grown up around pets and have always enjoyed caring for and looking after them, so dog walking is something I’m really happy to do alongside my studies. I understand that leaving your pet with someone new can feel like a big responsibility, so I want every owner to feel confident that their dog is being properly looked after.
I offer a friendly, attentive care for all pets. I understand that every dog has their own routine and personality, so I’m happy to follow their usual feeding, walking, sleeping and medication routines as closely as possible.
For walking, you can expect a standard 30 minutes walk, or an extended 60 minute walk for a small additional price! If you would like longer walks, I can also do that with prior arrangements. I am happy to do a range of speeds depending on the breed/age of the dog as well, so just let me know what their preferences are!
Safety is very important to me. I will always make sure doors and gates are properly secured and that dogs are supervised when outside. I would also keep dogs on a lead unless I have the owner’s permission and am confident that the location and circumstances are appropriate. I’m happy to discuss recall, reactivity, separation anxiety, dietary requirements or any other important details before a booking.
I’m most comfortable caring for friendly, well-socialised dogs. Before accepting a longer booking, I’d be happy to arrange a meet-and-greet so we can make sure both you and your dog are comfortable with me and my home.
Throughout the stay, I’ll keep you updated and can send photos and messages so you know your dog is happy and settled.

Hi. I'm a first year student offering home visits and dog walking sessions. I am able to do home visits for pets such as dogs, cats, rabbits, ferets or hamsters.&nbsp;I’m a reliable and caring pet sitter with a passion for animal care. Having grown up with many pets over the years, I’m very comfortable handling different breeds, sizes, and personalities. I understand the importance of routine, exercise, and attention, and I always access the animals behavior from afar before approaching them. I will make sure pets feel safe, happy, and well cared for in their owner’s absence.I’m confident with dog walking, whether it’s energetic outdoor walks or more relaxed strolls, and I always prioritise safety and awareness of surroundings. When home sitting, I treat both the pet and the home with respect such as keeping things clean, secure, and stress-free.I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, and I take pride in building trust with both pets and their owners.You can count on me to provide dependable, attentive care and plenty of affection while you’re away!

As a dog owner, I am passionate about pets and love looking after them.&nbsp;

Hi, I’m Garry, a reliable and friendly dog walker and pet carer. I love spending time outdoors and giving dogs a safe, happy, and enjoyable walk. I tailor each walk to your dog’s needs, whether they enjoy a leisurely stroll, a more energetic adventure, or some gentle play along the way.

I have hands-on experience with my own 7-year-old Cockapoo, which has taught me patience, understanding, and how to read a dog’s moods. I’m comfortable working with a wide range of breeds and temperaments, including shy, nervous dogs, energetic or high-energy breeds, and smaller dogs that need careful handling. I also have experience with dogs who are reactive on walks and can provide gentle guidance and reassurance to keep them calm and safe.

I walk dogs in local parks, trails, and safe neighbourhood routes, and can tailor walks to your dog’s fitness and preferences. In addition to walking, I can provide home visits, drop-ins, feeding, playtime, and basic grooming attention. I’m also trained to handle minor emergencies, carry water and first aid if needed, and ensure every dog is comfortable and secure.

Rates start at £13 for a 30-minute walk. I always recommend a short meet-and-greet first so your dog can get to know me and feel at ease. I look forward to meeting you and your furry friend!
