"We’ve returned from a week away, and during that time one of our dogs, Lola, became quite unwell with a virus and suffered severe diarrhoea for several days. Geena handled the situation with incredible care and professionalism, including dealing with all the clean-up and even taking Lola to the after-hours vet at 2am, only getting home again around 4am.
We were so grateful knowing our dogs were in such caring and capable hands while we were away. Her communication throughout was fantastic, with regular updates that gave us real peace of mind during what could have been a very stressful situation.
Coming home to happy dogs and an immaculate house was hugely appreciated.
We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Geena to anyone looking for a reliable, compassionate, and genuinely caring pet sitter. "

"We were so lucky to have found Danielle to care for our Baxter. Baxter has significant health issues that require injections and daily medication. Danielle managed his cares competently and confidently. Danielle showed a true affinity to animals and won Baxter over which was a relief to know he was in safe hands. We threw some unexpected drama into her stay and she dealt with this with a quietly reassuring manner. I would highly recommend Danielle to care for your precious pets if you want a stress free solution to your pet minding needs. . "

"I honestly can’t say enough good things about Cathy. From the moment we met her, it was clear that she genuinely cares about animals, and that care really showed in the way she looked after Shadow. She was a fantastic pet sitter and treated Shadow as if she were her own, making sure she was well cared for, comfortable, and happy while we were away.
We did have an unexpected and stressful incident where Shadow managed to escape from the fenced area. Cathy handled the situation calmly, responsibly, and exactly as you would hope someone would. She immediately took action by contacting the local pound, nearby veterinary clinics, and Shadow’s regular vet, leaving no stone unturned. Throughout the entire process, Cathy kept me fully updated and in the loop, which made a huge difference during what could have been a very worrying time.
What really stood out was Cathy’s dedication and professionalism. She didn’t panic, she didn’t give up, and she genuinely went above and beyond to make sure Shadow was safe. Her communication was excellent, and I always felt reassured that Shadow was in the best possible hands.
I would not hesitate for a second to recommend Cathy to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and proactive pet sitter. Knowing that someone like Cathy is looking after your pet gives you complete peace of mind"

"Isabella looked after our three dogs for a week while we were in Australia and we were very happy with the experience.
One of the things we especially appreciated was that Isabella works from home, which meant she was able to spend plenty of time with the dogs and provide them with lots of company and attention.
Communication was great, with updates and photos of the dogs' walks, which was pleasing, knowing they were happy, and well cared for.
We returned to an immaculate house. Everything was left exactly as we'd hoped.
We would happily recommend Isabella to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and professional pet sitter

"After using Pawshake and finding an amazing pet sitter in Petra I can’t see us ever using a kennel or cattery for our fur babies! It was such a relief to be able to leave them in safe, responsible and conscientious hands. Petra was so lovely, a great communicator and we felt at ease straight away after meeting her. Our dog and two cats were well cared for and we had a great holiday without any worries about them or our home while we were away. Thanks Petra, we’d love to have you back in the future!"

"Grace was absolutely amazing. She is a true angel.
She looked after our dog and cat in our home for three nights, and we couldn't have asked for better care. Our pets both need a lot of attention, and she gave them so much love and affection. She took our dog on walks, slept with our cat to keep him company, and treated them as if they were her own.
Every day, she sent us photos and updates, which gave us complete peace of mind while we were away.
We came home to two very happy, relaxed pets and a spotless house. We truly hope Grace will be available to look after them again on our next holiday. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, trustworthy, and reliable pet sitter."

Everything was taken care of nicely in the house as well.
Maria would be welcome to pet sit for me again and I can recommend her."
