"Breanna was amazing! Excellent communication (the most important thing for someone taking care of your dogs), plenty of photos and such a lovely vibe.
I have used paw shake multiple times this year and she has been the best sitter of them all!
The dogs loved her. Would definitely book again.
Thanks so much Breanna "

"Kimberly took wonderful care of our senior dog, Miki. He usually becomes very nervous and stressed when we are away and often refuses to eat, but Kimberly found a way to encourage him. She even played calming dog music for him and kept us updated with messages and photos. I felt completely at ease knowing Miki was in such good hands.
She left the house tidy and pleasant, and Miki was in great spirits when we returned, with no signs of stress at all.
Kimberly has a lovely, kind nature, and I can wholeheartedly recommend her as a pet sitter to anyone. Thank you, Kimberly!"

"Yiling was great from the start - great communication and was very thorough with all details. You could tell she has been a dog sitter for a while. She looked after our dog very well and made sure he was very comfortable all weekend. "HReview by Helen

"My first house sitting experience with both Pawshake and Claudia! I can highly recommend Claudia, she was very conscientious and her communication was excellent. My little dog was very happy in her company and my home was left spotless. I look forward to booking her again."

"Briar and Joe looked after our three dogs perfectly.
They handled their individual personalities and various ages/needs so well and all were happy when we arrived home.
Thank you both for keeping them all in routine and for the excellent communication while we were away.
Hoping we can book you again in the near future :)"

"Jon did a fantastic job looking after our pets, Ava and Cruze! Both animals were happy and well-cared-for when we returned, and it was clear they’d had lots of attention and care. Jon also left our home spotless and took care to keep everything neat and tidy. We would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable and attentive pet sitter!"

"Zar is a fabulous pet sitter! Zar has done both daily visits to our house, as well as overnight stays while we were away for two weeks. We received regular photo and video updates, and it was obvious both cats were very comfortable with Zar. Our house was well cared-for (including bringing a nearly dead plant back to life!), and cleaner than its ever been with any other pet/housesitter. We will definitely be booking Zar again!"

"Astraea was absolutely amazing and I highly recommend her!
I have a senior cat and have very recently moved house. My Lulu has been having a hard time adjusting to the move so I decided to get an overnight sitter, rather than the day visits I would usually get.
Despite still being very skittish and unsettled, Lulu took to Astraea immediately! She ran right up to her during the meet & greet for smooches, and it really put my mind at ease. Astraea seems to have some kind of Disney Princess aura with animals!
Lulu also required daily medication which Astraea was happy to administer.
I advised Astraea that I was quite anxious about leaving Lulu, and she was very patient and kind with me even though I was being a bit of a neurotic helicopter parent 😅.
She provided daily updates and photos, and I really appreciated how thoughtful and thorough her messages were.
I was able to fully enjoy my trip away without any stress or worry.
In fact, Lulu was visibly disappointed when I came home today and she saw that I wasn't Astraea!
Astraea also went above and beyond, making a fresh bed for me and making my home spotless so I could just arrive home and relax with my baby (who will hopefully soon get over the disappointment of not having her new bestie to hang out with)."

Pawshake also offers house sitting in
Why house sitting ?
Are you going away but have a pet that prefers to stay in their own environment? Or perhaps you have a range of different animals and it’s not practical for you to organise for them to stay in different places? Then you might want to consider finding a Pawshake house sitter to come and stay at your Karamu home while you are away.
House sitting is a convenient and affordable option when you have multiple pets and also want your house to be securely looked after while you are away. Many of our pet sitters have very reasonable house sitting rates because they enjoy staying and exploring different local neighbourhoods like Karamu.
At Pawshake, we understand that trusting your home to a stranger can be a little daunting. So we’ve done all the hard work to ensure that your Pawshake house sitter is trustworthy and reliable. All our pet sitter profiles are checked individually by our dedicated trust and safety team and some house sitters also have their own police checks which they can share with you.
The best thing about engaging a Pawshake verified house sitter is that you can relax knowing that on top of being covered by The Pawshake Guarantee which includes veterinary coverage, so your pets are being cared for in a familiar environment and your Karamu home is also being looked after as well.
In addition to looking after your pets, most of our house sitters will happily help you by collecting your mail, taking out the bins, and watering your plants. Just make sure you discuss all your requirements with your chosen house sitter prior to booking.
Pet owners book house sitting in Karamu on Pawshake. Over 226 pet owners in Karamu have left a review, with an average of 4.97/5. All paid safely using Visa, Mastercard, American Express
