"We went on a 7 week holiday overseas and have 5 cats which we booked into our vet cattery. Two weeks prior to us leaving on our trip a stray hungry kitten turned up at our house, several attempts to find where she came from failed and we began feeding her and worried what will become of her when we go away. The cattery would not accept her as a stray cat, no shots etc. I found out about Pawshake online and Joanne accepted to take on our odd request to feed this stray kitten whilst we were away, I was able to get the kitten checked by our vet prior to going away and they advised she is the size of a 12 -14 week kitten, but with full grown teeth, so we suspect she is older than what she looks (stunted growth due to not being well looked after, stray?). We were able to lock her inside to prevent her from getting pregnant and Joanne came once a day to feed this stray cat we don't own whilst we were away, which we have named Braveheart (brave little girl for turning up to our house with 5 of our other not so friendly/nervous cats).
Joanne exceeded our expectations of looking after Braveheart, we came home to a healthy, happy cat. Joanne was able to get Braveheart to trust her after a couple of days, befriend and entertain her with toys and boxes etc. to play with being locked up in a strangers house for 7 weeks. The daily photos of Braveheart progressing and being happy were a joy to receive by email each day. We are now home and have her booked into the vet this week to be spayed and to try to integrate her into our family of 5 other cats, she will be okay but not sure about our other cats, so a challenge lays ahead. Our 5 other cats in the cattery did not like their time away from home and came home very nervous (although safe) and having difficulty readjusting. I will take up the services of Pawshake in the future when we go away for caring for our cats at home, Joanne was excellent, she is caring of animals, provided great daily photo and communication. We came home of a healthy, happy cat. In addition, it was great to have mail box cleared daily and someone coming and going in your house especially when away for a long period."

"We needed someone to look after our cat Pepper very last minute.
Mikayla answered our request quickly and we were able to get the help we needed.
Mikayla sent us frequent updates and managed to give eye drops to our cat without any issues.
The cat was super happy and healthy when we came back. I think she was a bit disappointed it was us coming home and not her awesome new cat sitter friend.
Thank you so much Mikayla for taking such great care of our little Pepper. "

"It was a genuine pleasure to have Jacqui look after our cat over Christmas. She sent lovely updates and her whole family were involved in engaging with our cat while we were away which was nice, they all clearly love animals. Jacqui’s pet ownership and animal qualifications and experience make you feel like your pet is in very safe hands. Our cat looked very happy and at ease socialising with Jacqui and her family. It’s the first time I’ve had a sitter ask where our cat’s cage is in case anything happens on the off chance, and that’s the level of care and experience you will receive with Jacqui. She was also understanding and flexible with our change in travel times which was much appreciated. Thanks Jacqui! "

"Alana took great care of our cat Tiger while we were away. We had booked Alana to come by and feed Tiger (rather than house sit) and she made the effort to spend time with tiger, cuddle and play with her, as well as feeding her. When you book a pet sitter generally you know someone else won’t love your pet like you do, but it felt to us like Alana did care for tiger the way we would have. Really appreciate it!"

"It was hard for us to contemplate leaving our guinea pig girls in the care of someone else but after our first meeting with Fiona our worries were put to rest. Fiona took excellent care of them and we came home to two well fed, clean, happy piggies. We received regular emails from Fiona while we were away which was just brilliant and so reassuring. We are very impressed with the service and care that Fiona offers and have no hesitation in recommending her to other people looking for a pet sitter."

"Mel was an absolutely fantastic sitter for our girl Kairi. She was excellent with communication and really put our minds at ease while we were out of town for the day by sending photos and update messages. Mel took the time to connect with Kairi - she can be a very anxious dog, but she was very quickly comfortable due to Mel’s clear love of animals and expertise with them. We highly recommend Mel as a pet sitter and will book again with her next time. Thanks Mel!!"

"Nicki and Dan have provided pet sitting services to us on several occasions now and we have always found that our pets have been well looked after and happy to be in their own environment. We have made some last minute bookings recently with Nicki and Dan and they have always been available to provide pet care at short notice. We would recommend Nicki and Dan as pet sitters."
