"I felt very comfortable leaving Coco with Henry and Tessa. Throughout the stay there was great communication and it was clear that both Henry and Tessa loved dogs. Coco went out and about on lots of little expeditions, even a doggy play date. Henry and Tessa’s yard was fully fenced so very suitable for Coco. I highly recommend their service and hope to book them again in the future. "

"I couldn’t have asked for a better pet sitter for Chomsky.
As a dog owner, it’s always difficult leaving your dog with someone new especially when your dog is naturally shy and takes time to trust strangers. Chomsky has never been comfortable staying with unfamiliar people so I was quite nervous before our trip. Gabriela completely put my mind at ease.
From the moment Chomsky arrived, she was incredibly patient and understanding. She gave him the time and space he needed to settle in and never rushed him. It was lovely to see him gradually become more relaxed and confident over the weekend.
One thing I really appreciated was the regular updates. Gabriela sent me photos, videos and thoughtful messages throughout his stay letting me know how he was doing, what he had been up to and how he was settling in. Seeing Chomsky eating well, enjoying his walks, sleeping comfortably and eventually choosing to stay close to her and her lovely son was so reassuring. It was clear that he felt safe and cared for.
What impressed me most was how much genuine care and attention Gabriela gave him. She took the time to understand his personality and treated him with kindness and patience. By the end of his stay Chomsky looked completely relaxed and happy which is something I honestly didn’t expect from his first stay with a new sitter.
I wouldn’t hesitate to leave Chomsky with Gabriela again and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, caring and genuinely passionate about looking after dogs.
As a dog owner, one of the greatest feelings is knowing your dog feels safe even when you’re not there. Gabriela gave me exactly that peace of mind. Really appreciate for treating Chomsky as if he were your own.
Thank you again, Gabriela, for taking such wonderful care of Chomsky. Knowing he was happy and felt safe while I was away gave me complete peace of mind. I truly appreciate everything you did for him. ❤️🙏❤️

"Anton has been an absolutely fantastic dog sitter. From the moment we met him, it was clear how genuinely caring and attentive he is with animals. He looked after our dog as if she were his own, giving us complete peace of mind while we were away.
We really appreciated the regular updates, photos, and little messages letting us know how things were going. It made such a difference knowing she was happy, well cared for, and getting lots of love and attention.
Our dog came home relaxed, content, and clearly very fond of Anton, which says it all. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable, kind, and trustworthy sitter.
Thank you again, Anton — we’ll definitely be booking with you again!

"Crystal took care of our boy Reggie for 2 nights covering our wedding day and celebrations after. She sent us nightly updates of how his days were spent and how he was behaving, he was in good hands and enjoying his time with a new friend. He was well cared for and entertained. Crystal was excellent with communication and even understanding and forgiving despite Reggie tearing apart a pair of underwear he'd managed to sneakily take.
Would absolutely recommend Crystal as a pet sitter to anyone as her experience and love for animals really shows."

Lisa brushed Rosie every day keeping her fur in great condition, she was taken on lots of interesting walks and I was given plenty of updates and lovely photos.
I will definitely be using Lisa and Steve again, and absolutely recommend Lisa as a very caring, experienced dog minder. "

"We had an excellent experience with Carolyn and felt completely at ease leaving our pet at her home. She was warm, friendly, flexible, and genuinely caring throughout the entire stay. It was clear from the beginning that she truly loves and understands dogs.
She took Poppy on two walks, kept us updated, and made sure our dog felt comfortable and well cared for in a new environment. The biggest reassurance for us was picking up a relaxed, happy, and settled dog who behaved completely normal afterward. It was a clear sign of how safe and comfortable she felt staying with her.
We really appreciated the care, attention, and kindness she showed our dog and would absolutely recommend Carolyn to anyone looking for a trustworthy and reliable dog sitter. We’d be very happy to book with her again in the future."

"Helen was great to deal with from the get go, especially this being the first time using Pawshake.
Communication was great and prompt and when we were away she kept us updated on how our dog was doing.
I could tell from when we first met Helen to introduce our dog to her, that she had a wealth of experience looking after dogs which put me and my wife at ease leaving him with her.
Would defiantly recommend Helen!"

"This is the first time that we have left Darcy with a pet sitter. Michael and family welcomed Darcy at the door and Darcy stayed with the family for two nights. Michael delivered Darcy to our hotel at the end of the stay and told us that Darcy missed us and did not eat much of his food. It was heartbreaking to hear that and it was not the carer's fault. Other than that he was back to his normal self and was happy to see us."

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 Porirua 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 Porirua 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 Porirua 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.
