Pet, Dog & Cat Sitting in Shoreditch

Live-in pet care in the middle of East London, without taking your pet away from home.

Fully insured — £5m liabilityDBS checkedOvernight care in your homeFrom £34/night on longer stays

Your sitter stays in your home overnight and follows your pets' agreed routine. We agree how long your pets can be left alone, including evenings, before booking. This is live-in care rather than drop-in visits, daycare or boarding elsewhere.

Shoreditch might be busy outside, but behind the shopfronts and railway arches are plenty of flats, lofts and warehouse conversions with dogs and cats happily settled inside them. When you travel, live-in sitting means they don't have to go anywhere. Your sitter moves in, so feeding times, sleeping spots and all the small parts of your pet's day can carry on much as normal.

Dogs still have Shoreditch Park, Haggerston Park and the Regent's Canal within easy reach, while cats get the considerably simpler pleasure of staying exactly where they are. We work around the routine you give us rather than introducing a new one, and our sitters generally work remotely or flexibly, so pets have plenty of company during the day as well as someone there overnight.

What we cover in Shoreditch

Dog sitting in Shoreditch

Your sitter lives in, so your dog's routine carries on unchanged — the same walks round Shoreditch Park, the same meal times, the same sofa at the end of the day. No kennel, no car journey, no settling-in period.

Cat sitting in Shoreditch

Cats do badly with upheaval, so we do not move them. No carrier, no cattery, no unfamiliar smells — your sitter comes to Shoreditch and fits around your cat rather than the other way round.

House sitting in Shoreditch

Because your sitter lives in for the whole stay, the house is occupied the entire time you are away — lights on, post picked up, nothing sitting on the mat advertising an empty flat in Shoreditch. It comes with the pet care rather than instead of it.

Where we walk dogs in Shoreditch

We keep your dog's usual routes — these are the local spots our sits here are built around.

Shoreditch Park

A welcome stretch of open green space for everyday walks away from Shoreditch's busier streets.

Haggerston Park

A greener, quieter option that can work particularly well for dogs who prefer a calmer walk.

Regent's Canal towpath

A traffic-free waterside route that quickly leaves the bustle of Shoreditch behind.

Cats in Shoreditch

Shoreditch's flats and converted buildings are home to plenty of indoor cats. Live-in care means no carrier journey or unfamiliar cattery: your cat stays with their usual feeding times, favourite sleeping spots and familiar surroundings, with someone around in the evenings and daily photo updates for you.
