"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!

"Abby did an amazing job looking after my 3 working dogs over the past few days, who can be a handful sometimes.
One of my pets was recovering from leg surgery and Abby looked after her and administered daily medication.
Abby was attentive, courteous, and left my house looking spick and span.
Abby comes highly recommended, and I will be happy requesting her services again in the future."

"Maddy was fantastic. Her communication was excellent and our Labradoodle was very happy spending time with her. Maddy left our house in fantastic condition and even washed and dried the linen she used during her stay. We would thoroughly recommend Maddy and we will definitely engage her for future dog sitting requirements. "

"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."

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

"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!"
