"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."

"Christina was amazing! We have never used a pet sitter for our 13 year old dog before but from the first meeting Christina was so great with him!
We got regular photos and messages and he was so comfortable with her. In the 2 weeks we were away it was great to know he was in such great care.
I would highly recommend Christina so anyone who’s looking for a dog sitter, she’s the best! Would 100% book her again. Thank you Christina! "

"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!

"Hannah was fantastic. She handles our four crazy fur-babies with ease and even vacuumed (which was a lovely surprise). Hannah was always happy, smiling and easy going. I will be looking to get Hannah back next time we need a pet sitter. I highly recommend her.

"Having never had a pet sitter before I was nervous to leave my dog with a stranger. Upon meeting Bee my mind was put to ease. My dog was instantly calm in her presence. Bee was genuinely interested in how to cater to her needs. I loved the frequent updates and pictures. I returned to a very clean home and a happy, relaxed dog."BReview by Belinda

"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. "

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."

"Our initial meet and greet with Rajdeep went really well with both our dogs being comfortable when introduced. I had no hesitation in entrusting him with their care and looking after our home also. On our return, well looked after and happy dogs as was our home. Receiving photos and communication while we were away was great. A trusted and caring pet sitter and we'd highly recommend Rajdeep to care for your pets too."AReview by Alessandra

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!"
