About Anne

I have been an animal lover since I was old enough to recognise the unique loveability of furry, four-legged friends who bring such delight into our lives. I've personally owned some very special dogs and cats, all of whom I remember with love. 

Currently, my husband and I have two dogs of our own, Toby a Border Terrier and Danni an Irish Setter. As my husband is also retired, he is willing to take on the mantle of dog-carer for our dogs at home if I'm away or out minding other pets. As our two dogs are far too spoiled to share our attention with any other four-legged visitors, the service I offer would be in your own home.

As a long term pet owner, I understand only too well the wrench it can be to have to leave your pets when you're away from home. It's difficult to relax when you're anxious about your pets' welfare. The great advantage of hiring a pet sitter is that your pets remain in their familiar surroundings and their routines are not disrupted. This is especially desirable for very young dogs and cats, older ones who may be dealing with age-related or other health challenges and anxious pets. Coming home to a happy, relaxed and secure pet makes having a pet sitter such a worthwhile alternative. 

I have been pet sitting with Pawshake since December 2019 and have successfully cared for cats, dogs and the occasional bird or rabbit, of all ages, breeds and temperaments. I have numerous regular clients who are more than happy to recommend my services, as you can see from my reviews, which are consistently five star. I am very attuned to animals and their needs and potential problems. Over the years I've taken my own dogs to many training courses and classes and am very familiar with current thinking and approaches to dog handling and training.

Around the house, I am fastidious and thorough about keeping everything clean and neat, and would care for your home and belongings (as well as the fur babies) as if they were my own.

For your added peace of mind and security, I confirm that I am the holder of an up to date Police Check Certificate.

Anne has been an extremely supportive and reliable sitter for our cat BoBo. We appreciate the care she takes and the communication regarding our cat and the house while we are away. We would thoroughly recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter.

As above. Also very patient and super-indulgent. I am reliable, trustworthy and conscientious and am very willing to communicate frequently on your pets' wellbeing, with photos, WhatsApp, Skype or other means that suit you.

If you are requesting home visits for your pets, I prefer to do at a minimum one home visit per day. Especially in extreme weather, I don't feel happy about knowing your pets are left alone for any longer period than that. Even with the best laid plans, water bowls and food dispensers can tip over or not function properly and if it was my pet, I'd like to know they were being checked on a daily basis. Could you please take this into consideration when arranging a booking.I would plan to spend at least half an hour with your pets, including feeding, providing fresh water, letting them outside for exercise if appropriate,, playing with them and providing companionship, administering medication if required, cleaning up after your pets, including changing litter in litter trays, disposing of dog waste appropriately etc..
