Best care and full attention!15.5 km

"I am a rescue foster carer and have 5 rescue Tibetan Spaniels and 1 rescue kitty. Four of the dogs are very traumatised due to their lengthy past of living in cages and without any human interaction, except for in a negative way. Due to this and understanding the challenges of babysitting them, I have not left them before. So, I had much anxiety about leaving them and really not that comfortable with someone coming into my home...but I needed a house-sitter.
I found Mariya after another babysitter on another Pet-sitting site let me down at the Meet and Greet stage (better this than during the house-sit which has happened to me before and also to a friend).
Mariya was (is) amazing. She is a caring, thoughtful, considerate, intelligent, capable and solution-orientated person.
Four of the dogs were manageable with Mariya providing some additional approaches in their best interests, yet all time consuming for her. However, one dog was beyond a challenge. Mariya worked with me (me remotely) for an appropriate approach that supported the dog and and also worked for the others. This really reassured me - both her frankness and the way she eagerly wanted to work through a solution. She was amazing! Another house-sitter would have given up.
I am vegan and have allergies. So, she decided without discussion to bring her own crockery, cutlery, cookware, sheets, towels so as not to contaminate anything of mine. Wow! I've never experienced such care and compassion. It definitely wasn't my expectation for her to do this.
I came home to a clean house, as clean as I left it and I'm a clean freak. I also came home to very happy babies. It was wonderful and reassuring.
OK - only negative... my kitty and one of the dogs have issued me with their Vacate Notices. They've decided to shift in with Mariya!! She was that loved by them and by all (and this was evident in the photos, clips she updated me with regularly).
I am unsure if Pawshake allow this, but would be happy for anyone considering Mariya to contact me for more information.
I feel I have not only found an amazing house-sitter, but also found a new wonderful friend.
Thank you Mariya from all of us in The Unit of Love!

"Ellie did a great job looking after Rodolph. She asked all the right questions beforehand and made him feel comfortable and relaxed from the get go, which was great as he can be a bit anxious around new people. Rodolph is a Lab so he's not exactly a small dog and can be a bit harder to manage at times, but Ellie handled him really well.
We came home to a happy, relaxed dog and a clean, tidy house We'd happily have her look after Rodolph again and would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter."

"Kate was wonderful. Came to meet my cats before my trip and you can see she is just wonderful with animals.
Kate kept in touch with me during my time away and was also able to deal with a bit of hiccup like a pro. Would definitely have Kate take care of my cats again."

"Camila did an amazing job looking after my two cats while I was away for 2 nights! She was reliable, caring, and kept me updated with photos and messages, which gave me peace of mind. My cats were happy and relaxed when I returned, and it was clear they were well cared for. I’m very happy with her service and would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy pet sitter!

"Kerwin stayed at our house overnight to look after our 2 boys. Both of our boys are rescue dogs and Red the smaller one had a very rough first 3 years of miss treatment. Due to his bad treatment he can be nervous around males. I say this as when Kerwin came to visit the boys and us before the stay Red took to him straight away. What really impressed us was the way Kerwin interacted with our boys. He demonstrated he knowledge and understands of the mannerisms of dogs. The importance in keeping the routine the same.
We were so impressed with Kerwin that later this year we are going on trip were we cannot take boys and will be asking Kerwin to look after them again. "

"Kirsty was incredible and looked after our precious greyhound just like her own pet! Anyone who knows greyhounds knows they can have really tricky behaviours and Kirsty managed them so well. Her communication was fantastic and she left the house absolutely spotless. She made the whole process so easy and effortless. I would definitely recommend Kirsty to anyone looking for a loving and conscientious dog sitter!"

"Midori house and dog sat for us and I couldn’t be happier with the service she provided. She was great with my dog who took to her straight away. She was very contentious sending photos/updates everyday and asking questions to check on my dogs habits and that everything was fine. The house was pristine when we got home. Would definitely recommend her as a very reliable dog sitter. "
