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 currently a second year student at the University of York studying psychology. 
Although I don't necessarily have experience pet setting professionally, I have a dog back at home and I'm well versed with all the daily chores, and can also help with things such as bathing your dog, cleaning their ears, brushing teeth, etc. I only have experience with dogs, however, and would not be able to help out with cats or other animals. 
I would be more than happy to help out with dog walks, or pet sitting at your home; I just can't do pet sitting over at my accommodation, because pets sadly aren't allowed.
Because I'm currently quite far from home, I'd love to be able to take care of a dog and treat him/her as mine. You can be sure I'll take care of your dog with love, yet still be responsible and dedicated to the task at hand.
Thank you! 

An academic historian/museum professional based in York. I got my love of cats from my mum and have had cats for 20 years now - first, three beautiful rescues at my parents house, and now my own little calico sweetheart, Frida (aka Fifi) and pocket rocket black cat, Lilith (aka Lili). I live with my partner so he can look after our little one while I look after yours.

I love to sit and cuddle, groom and play with your little ones. I am more than happy to tailor my time to what your cats like doing - even offering the occasional treat, if allowed! I’d love to keep you updated with photos and videos if that would give peace of mind.

I will always make sure the space is cleared (including full litter tray changes if required), their food bowls are clean and water is changed. I can also collect any post, do morning/evening curtain and blind opening, and make sure your house plants are kept alive 🪴

I am highly proficient at giving syringe/tablet oral medications and eye drops (thanks to years with cats with various ailments), and have done injections in the past. If you have a preferred way of doing their injections, I am all too happy to learn.

I work from home 3/4 out of 5 days (the other 1/2 days I’ll be in Leeds, so not too far away). I also have a car/license, so can readily get to your location.

If you require overnight stays, I will need access to WiFi (for work purposes), would appreciate information on what amenities are available (including towels/bedding/tea and coffee) so I know what to bring with me, and access to parking.

I've been around animals my whole life, from cats and dogs all the way to horses and chickens. I absolutely love animals, especially my own dog. I am a university student and currently living away from home and I thought looking after and spending time with other dogs would make me miss my best friend a bit less. I love walking and it ends up being the best part of my day, adding a peaceful time to get away and focus on something that really matters! I think animals are one of life's most precious things and we are lucky to have them.
I have had my dog for 3 years now. I have experience with larger dogs, nervous dogs and even lead pullers. All is welcome as often they don't mean it :). I have often looked after and walked other dogs around my area!

I have also had a cat and had experience looking my friends and family's pets. 
Im happy to walk, feed and provide company to all animals and would be a pleasure to do so. 

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!


Hi, I'm Holly! I am 28 and I offer dog walking and home visits for both dogs and cats in York  I grew up with multiple pets and now have my own little kitty cat.&nbsp;I have experience working with rescue animals from volunteering at the Yorkshire Cat Rescue where I worked with kitties of all different levels of health. I also used to work at an veterinary pathology lab where I would work on samples sent from vet practices so I have a good knowledge of animal health. I have experience working in a vet practice and horse stables too!I am looking to make some extra money alongside my full time job and have always loved working with animals so this is a perfect fit and I can promise your fur babies will be safe and happy with me  please drop me a message if you're interested in my services, thank you! 

Service: Full day care (9-5) for your pet at your home for the price of 'one visit'. I have had dogs growing up and my parents currently have one we house trained as well as teaching basic tricks. I know that many people rescued/bought dogs during the pandemic who are now left home alone through the day.I would like to keep them company and give them cuddles and attention whilst I work from my laptop, in their home. I have also had rabbits as pets who I have litter trained. I would like to take the dogs for walks too as it helps me get exercise through the day.&nbsp;I am a lawyer so am professional and can be trusted in people's homes. I don't have many meetings so my attention will be given completely to the dog, who I expect will curl up next to me whilst I'm typing away and will enjoy cuddles.&nbsp;The reason I wish to do this is because I love pets (in particular dogs) so much and they make me happy. I can't get my own because I am not allowed in the rental agreement so this is the next best thing.&nbsp;
