Loved by pet owners
Sit back and relax! Your pet is in safe hands with their loving, experienced pet sitter.
NWe recently went on a trip and, for the very first time, had to leave our beloved Bruno for home boarding. Naturally, we were veryanxious, and was all worried if he will be able to understand it’s only for a short while and we didn’t abandon him but I think we found a very good pet sitter for sure.
Thank you for taking such amazing care of Bruno and treating him like your own. We truly appreciated the constant updates, photos, and videos that kept us informed about how he was doing every day. Seeing him happy, comfortable, and well looked after gave us complete peace of mind throughout our trip.
Your dedication, patience, and genuine love for animals really shine through in everything you do. We couldn’t have asked for a better pet sitter, and we’re so grateful to have found someone we can trust completely with Bruno. We highly recommend your services to anyone looking for a caring, reliable, and professional pet sitter. Thank you again for making our first boarding experience such a wonderful one! ❤️

SI had an excellent experience with Lynn. She took exceptional care of my dog, ensuring not only comfort and safety but also genuine attention and affection throughout the entire period.
What stood out most was her consistent communication — I received regular updates accompanied by photos and videos, which provided great peace of mind. Beyond basic care, she also shared valuable dog-rearing tips, demonstrating both knowledge and a genuine commitment to my dog’s well-being.
She went above and beyond by bringing my dog on engaging excursions and adventures, including a hike at Mount Faber Park, which I truly appreciated. It is clear she invests real effort into keeping the dogs active and happy.
Additionally, her willingness to assist with pick-up and drop-off during my tight schedule was extremely helpful and speaks volumes about her flexibility and professionalism.
Overall, Lynn is a highly reliable and dedicated dog sitter. I would strongly recommend her services to anyone seeking quality and trustworthy care for their pet.

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.
