About Ben

My name is Ben and I am 30 years old.

Since childhood I have been a devoted animal lover.
I have owned a dog, cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, hamsters, chickens and a duck.

I have also cared for my sisters bearded dragon. I have been pet sitting since I was 10, as I used to care for my neighbours cats while they were away.

I started this service in 2018 with the idea from a family member and it’s developed ever since. There’s nothing more relaxing than looking after people’s pets.

Love animals particularly dogs/cats sometimes more than humans I’m proud to say. 

The only animals I can’t provide services for due to phobia are rats and mice.

As of today I am working full time as a postman in Sevenoaks, so I won't be able to dog sit/house sitting anymore.

However I can still cat sit around work.

For example I can feed a customers cat in the morning before I go to work, and/or feed them their dinner in the evening once I've finished my shift.

I am trustworthy, reliable and would ensure your pets individual needs are catered to the best standard possible, to ensure complete peace of mind while you are away.

As my pet sitting job requires travelling by car I will have to add an extra fee for petrol money, which is calculated by the distance between my flat to your location, how many trips and cost of at a local station.

Finally I’ve engaged in lots of activities since leaving school in 2010 from training in performing arts/drama school, Prince’s Trust programme, studying music and media at college and working at my old school.

We are new to Pawshake as my Sister in Law normally feeds our Cat whilst we're away, so we were so thrilled and grateful to have found and met Ben through the site! He was simply fab, and our Cat China who is quite fussy and shy when it comes to new people had taken to him so quickly and enjoyed his company. Ben sent us videos of her whilst we were away and she seems quite happy in our absence and was also very content when we got back from our trip too. We would certainly choose Ben next time around for our Cat sitting needs. He was very organised, and thorough. Thank you Ben!

Just arrived home after a week's holiday. My cats are extremely happy. I cannot thank Ben enough for the time and care given. Home was just as I left it spotless. My cats were communicative, playful as if we hadn't left. I would not hesitate to call on Ben again, such a lovely man.
