Having pets ourselves we understand the concerns that people have when leaving their pets in kennels or catteries.
We provide a professional, reliable and affordable service alternative to traditional kennels and catteries.
We provide a stress free break for pets and the owners by looking after pets within a family environment.
We have not always been pet sitters though, we met at University and have worked in relevant fields for eight years. Christine used to be a Team Leader in the Pharmaceutical Industry and Isobel was a Finance Manager.
Christine chose redundancy in December 2002, and after volunteering at the Cheshire Dogs Home and some retraining, she set up a pet sitting business in September 2003 called PawsaWhile.
Isobel took voluntary redundancy in September 2004, and after a fun filled break travelling for six months we joined forces as ICpaws.
We have had various helpers over the years – fellow pet lovers.
Dogs, after 9 months, can come to stay and play either during the day or overnight. Some of our overnight boarders come from further afield such as Manchester, Holmfirth, Oswestry and St. Helens.
We do not have kennels. The dogs all stay in the house with us and are treated as part of the family. We go for walks, have plenty of playtime, training, treats and more. We do not leave dogs for more than three hours at a time.
A wide range of food is available and included, or you can bring your own. We will make sure your dogs diet and routine are matched as closely as possible.
If you and your dog prefer, we can visit your dog in your home whilst you are away. We can come at any time between the hours of 8am and 7pm. Each visit, includes playtime, feeding and walking, will last for around half an hour. We can also make sure that the house looks lived in whilst you are away – which would included opening and closing curtains, switching on light and picking up the post.
We are discreet and do not advertise your absence with pet sitting logos on our vehicles.
We walk dogs across the Warrington area. Our time slots are 8am – 11am, 11am – 2pm and 2pm – 5pm, however we will try and meet your preferred time whenever possible.
Each walk lasts for one hour and we have generous discounts for more than one dog in a family. We can also accommodate for shorter walks, if required.
The first few months of living with your new puppy are very important for training and socialisation. We can help by providing regular visits to play, train and socialise your puppy when your out.
Cats find staying in their own home a stress free alternative to the restrictive environment of a cattery. We visit your cats in your home as many times a day as you require.
These visits will be tailor made to your needs, but usually include feeding, litter tray cleaning, cuddles, playtime, picking up post, watering plants, turning on lights and opening / closing curtains. These visits also have the advantage of acting as a deterrent to potential burglars.
We are discreet and do not advertise your absence with pet sitting logos on our vehicles.
We are also happy to look after other small animals in your home. We have looked after parrots, rabbits, guinea pigs, hamsters, gerbils, fish and snakes.
