LEmma and her partner Keith provided a 'home from home' experience for Roshi. I was updated daily with photos and messages which helped put me at ease about leaving her for a week. They took the best care of her, even teaching her a new trick! When I went to pick her up, I could see that she clearly loved them both. If you want a pet sitter that will love your pet as their own, then Emma is the pet sitter for you. I will definitely be using Emma again and highly recommend her to any one else looking for a pet sitter.

KWe had a fantastic experience with our dog sitters Smutri and Kash looking after our dogs, Angel and Cosmo. They were so caring and attentive, and it was clear our dogs were treated like part of the family. We really appreciated the updates and photos while we were away. When we got home, Angel and Cosmo were happy, relaxed, and clearly very well cared for. We’d happily recommend them to anyone looking for trustworthy dog sitters. Looking forward to have them stay there again

Your dog boarding questions answered
With home dog boarding, your dog stays overnight at a sitter’s home. Instead of being in a crowded dog kennel or dog hotel, your dog can be in a comfortable home and receive the same quality level of love and care you would provide.
Your dog will be staying at the sitter's home. Be sure to discuss any requirements with your sitter prior to booking. The more your sitter knows about your pet, the better! That way they can really ensure that your pet has the best and most comfortable stay.
Pawshake only accepts sitters who have experience and/or qualifications caring for pets. You will get to search, choose and have a free meet and greet with your sitter prior to making a booking.
Visit the sitter's profile and read about their background, home and experience.Then request a free meet and greet. If you are happy with the sitter’s dog boarding environment and how well they bond with your dog, confirm your booking on Pawshake.
