"Scott was fantastic. This was our first time leaving Rolo with someone else, and Scott made the whole process easy. He sent us nice updates with photos and worked with us around drop off and pick up times. Will use him again!"

"Elliott was amazing looking after our dog over the long weekend. Being a vet nurse gave us so much peace of mind, and you can tell he genuinely cares about the pets he looks after. He has a lovely dog of his own and they got along so well — ours came home happy, relaxed, and clearly had the best time. Great communication, very reasonable price, and just an all-round awesome experience. We’d happily recommend Elliott and will definitely book with him again!"

"Kaylene and Peter were the best dog boarders/ carers we have ever come across. Milo and Sydney, our 2 labradoodles boarded with Kaylene and Peter for about 2 months when we had to travel away. Our doggies had a 6 star hotel stay and TLC from Kaylene and Peter. Sydney in particular needed a little bit more care as she was on daily meds. We received lots of updates and photos each day , including action shots which looked like they were professionally taken! They had very good and varied walks 2x a day. Kaylene and Peter were so flexible and easy going, nothing was too much trouble. They put us to shame by baking a doggie birthday cake for Milo when she turned 7 - we have never made a doggie cake for our doggies before! We could not have asked for better care for our doggies and we keep saying to Kaylene and Peter that they have been so well look after and loved, we did not think they wanted to leave! Doggies came home well socialised, extremely well adjusted and happy. Can't thank you enough Kaylene and Peter - now that we have moved to Sydney, Australia - we wished you were here so that the doggies have you as a second home to go to! To anyone reading this review, we would recommend Kaylene and Peter unreservedly. If we could give Kaylene and Peter more than 5 stars, we would! "

"Valeria and her family were such considerate and gracious dog sitters. Our 2 dogs haven't stayed anywhere but our own house since we have been in NZ the past 8 months and there was potentially some anxiety. Valeria was so kind and although she had to clean her living room carpet was extremely compassionate communicating the problem to us. Our dogs got in some swims, they were so happy!"

"Marielle made Enzo's first dog-boarding super easy. Enzo was apprehensive at first but Marielle quickly made him feel comfortable and included him in her family. We couldn't chose the perfect host for Enzo. Marielle's house is super clean, safe and fully enclosed. Her two boys and her dog are so wonderful and friendly. We are super grateful for our wonderful first experience and looking forward to Enzo's next visits. I would highly recommend Marielle to look after your pet. We couldn't be happier. Thanks Marielle and family!"

"Cass was amazing. She is a fantastic dogsitter and I can recommend her without reservation. She managed introductions with her own dog so well they became good friends with my pup. She even nursed my dog through his recovery from desexing surgery, and liaised with my pet transport company. My dog was treated like part of her family and had great time in the month he stayed with them. I never worried once about his welfare while he was in his care. Her background in early childhood education really shows in her calm, sensible approach to managing everything. I wouldn't hesitate to have her dog sit for me again! Her kids are super comfortable with dogs and gave my pup a lot of extra attention that he loved 🙂 "

"Shelly was absolutely amazing - we couldn’t have asked for a better pet sitter. From the moment we left, we felt completely at ease knowing our dog was in such caring and capable hands. She was incredibly accommodating and gave us so much reassurance throughout our time away, sending multiple photo updates every day. She took our dog to the dog park daily, which was such a bonus and meant the world to us. We would recommend Shelly to anyone without hesitation. Thank you so much Shelly! 🐾🤍"

""Triin was absolutely amazing with our dog! 🌟 She is so kind, caring, and went above and beyond to make sure our Pudding the Frenchie felt safe and loved while we were away. We got regular updates and cute photos, which gave us total peace of mind. She is incredibly trustworthy, gentle, and attentive. She followed our dog’s routine perfectly and pup clearly adored her. You can tell she genuinely adores animals. We 100% recommend Triin and will definitely book her again. Thank you for treating our fur baby like your own! 🐾" Can’t recommend Triin enough! Kind, reliable, and fantastic with pets. Our dog came home happy and relaxed, 5/5 stars 😊""

Why dog boarding ?

For pet parents, one of the hardest things about going to work each day is wondering what your dog will get up to while you are gone. At Pawshake, we understand that dogs need activity and interaction during the day, so why not book your dog with one of our trusted sitters in Christchurch for a doggy day care service? You can drop your dog off at the sitter’s home on the way to work or organise with your local Christchurch Pawshake sitter to pick up and drop off your dog for you.

Pet day care is a great way to keep your dog mentally and physically active during the day so that you can come home to a happy, relaxed dog. Pawshake’s home day care service is great for young dogs who need constant supervision: puppy daycare allows your pup to maintain a consistent routine, which is important during the toilet training process. It’s also a great option for dogs who need extra care and attention, or those who are extra active.

Our sitters who offer doggy day care and puppy daycare services are more adaptable than your average big day care centre. Numbers are kept small and some Pawshake sitters will only take in one dog at a time. This means they can work around your timing and any special requirements your dog may have. So, let your four-legged best friend enjoy their day with a fun and loving Christchurch sitter who will shower them with love and dedicated attention. On top of that, you will also get photos and updates during the day so that you can follow your dog’s day care adventures!

Every day care booking also comes included with The Pawshake Guarantee, which includes veterinary coverage, customer service support 7 days a week and more.

Pet owners book dog boarding in Christchurch on Pawshake. Over 809 pet owners in Christchurch have left a review, with an average of 4.97/5. All paid safely using Visa, Mastercard, American Express
