Top cities for dog boarding in New Zealand

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 Takanini 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 Takanini 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 Takanini 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.

Kia Ora! My name is Alicia! I have three years experience training dogs and now run obedience courses with my agility club. I love dogs, border collies have a special place in my heart. I own a red and white border collie called Charlie. 
My property is fully fenced, located in Onehunga, has both a back yard and front yard, plenty of space for dogs to run around. I have an open space living area at the back of the house with a deck that is covered. The front yard is gated off from the drive way and the gates are electric so no chance of escapes! 
I love looking after dogs and have had friends dogs to stay with me many times. I have dogs who stay with me sleep on their beds/or crate if they're crate trained, in my bedroom overnight. 
A weekend for your furry friend spent with me would include many walks around Cornwall Park, Pah Homestead, Onehunga Bay and adventures to beaches and the waterfront! Adventures out of the house would be approx an hour or longer at least a couple of times a day, I would cater to your dog and their needs. 
I will only be hosting dogs to stay Friday afternoon- Monday morning. As I work full time Monday-Fri 9-5. 
Your dog would be well looked after and loved for their staycation !  I will send frequent pupdates (photos and videos!). 
Your dog must be well socialised, friendly to other dogs and people, well behaved and fully vaccinated. 
I will first do a meet and greet before accepting any new dogs. 
Thanks,
Alicia!

Hi there! I’m an animal lover who grew up surrounded by furry and feathered companions. Over the past 39 years, I’ve shared my home with six dogs, two cats, and six birds.
We’re currently raising a sweet Springer Spaniel boy named Mounty. For his age, he is incredibly well-behaved and super friendly. 
Everyday I take him out to the bush, dog park, up the mountains or down to the beach. If your dog loves outdoor adventures, I am the right person to you.
I work freelance, so I can easily fit pet care and dog walks into my day.
Dog Walking: I am happy to offer both short and long walks, depending on your needs. If you prefer long and adventure walks, the price will be slightly higher.
Doggy daycare&amp; boarding: I'm best suited for dogs who enjoy outdoor activities, as I love keeping them active and engaged.
To ensure a calm and happy environment for everyone, I prefer dogs who don’t have separation anxiety, are comfortable with car rides, are friendly with other dogs, are fully house-trained, don’t bark excessively, and can sleep independently.
With drop off available as early as 7:00 am, and pick up as late as 8:00pm.
For stays over 2 days, I prefer to arrange a trial stay in advance to make sure everyone feels comfortable.

I host just 1-2 dogs each time to maximum the safety and the comfort. You will get plenty of photos and videos if you like.
You can trust that I’ll care for your pups as if they were my own. My friends often describe me as reliable and responsible, and I’ll make sure your fur babies are safe, loved, and well cared for.
Free feel to reach out and we will find the best way for both you and your pup.

Hey there, I'm Esther and I'm currently studying at the University of Auckland, which means I've got plenty of flexibility in my schedule (in general only Tuesday and Thursday are occupied)
I've always been a huge animal lover and grew up with a cute dachshund and all sorts of other critters. I just seem to have a natural connection with animals. Now that I'm living in Auckland, I'm excited to help your pup get well-behaved and comfortable around other dogs by taking them for walks in the dog park. 
I'm always on the lookout for new adventures in the city, too, so if your dog is active and up for it, I'd love to take them exploring!I totally get that every dog has their own personality, so I always approach them with love and respect. I'm particularly good at creating a calm and structured environment for doggy daycare, which can be really beneficial for anxious dogs. 
And don't worry, I'll keep you updated with videos or photos so you don't miss out on any of your pup's adventures. If you're interested in working with me, just let me know your dog's habits and preferences (like their favorite park, toy, or treats), and we'll have a blast exploring the city together!
Service: 
Dog walking- 15 to 30 minutes. I am available during weekend in the Ellerslie area or location near public transportation within Auckland City (commute time &lt; 30 minutes).
Home visit- For more extended dog walking (&gt;30 minutes) or the location requires a commute time longer than 30 minutes. 
During these visits, I'll happily spend time with your furry friends, provide them with food, and ensure they have an enjoyable time. Also, I can take care of other tasks like watering your plants or bringing in your mail if needed – you can count on me to handle everything.
House sitting- (18:00 till the next day 7:30) at the owner's home (your place). I would love to get to know your dog in advance if needed. Please book a single walk so we can get to know each other🫶

Kia Ora! I’m Belle — proud dog mum to a cheeky little guy named Benji, who has taught me more about unconditional love (and strategic snack negotiations) than I ever imagined. Being a pet parent myself, I know just how important it is to have someone you can trust to care for your dog when you can’t be there.
I live with my partner Jordan, so it's just us with Benji. 
I offer dog boarding service in my place, I can take just one dog at a time apart from Benji.
We have a fully fenced backyard so your dog will be safe and secure. 
Guest dogs can sleep anywhere in the house, depending on their usual habit, we do have a dog bed available. 
Note: I've taken care of dogs before in Singapore and on Waiheke so with me, your dog won’t just be looked after — they’ll be treated like part of my own little pack (Benji included!).

I am a qualified ECE (Early Childhood Education) kaiako with a toddler. 
I have always loved kararehe (animals) and adore kuri (dogs). 
Knowing how Tyche (my Pomeranian) feels at times when left at home while I do my mahi, I wanted to provide others with the option for their fur babies to have an adventure. Or get out of the house while their humans are busy. 
I work part time teaching in ECE and Primary and want to do more work from home, as well as build up my fitness again, so thought puppy dates would be the perfect way to achieve both goals. 
At times I help organisations with rescues and caring for puppies before they join their foster families, however your fur baby will always be safe and you will be informed if it happens on your booked days. 
If you know of any elderly people that would benefit from my services please reach out, or send them my link

(My dogs don't come with me on sits but I would love if one of them could come along with me if allowed with a meet &amp; greet first of course) otherwise it's no problem at all if not I totally understand. Comfortable with administering medication. My dog has afew health issues which she is on long term that I have to administer twice a day. I have a background in rescue, rehabilitation, rehoming and also fostering dogs and as most would know they come with colourful &amp; quirky personalities and behaviours and require someone with patience, unlimited love and time to encourage and help them become the happy dog they long to be so I've learnt a lot and can read dogs body language very well.

Plenty of spaces in the home where dogs can relax we leave that door open always if not raining. 

Dogs must be toilet trained &amp; have basic manners/commands 
If you're dog is not good on walks in public weather that be because of reactivity to people or other dogs that's no problem, all information to help me help them enjoy a walk without issues or just a brief how to deal with the situation to upkeep what you do etc otherwise I have a big enough yard for fetch and runs so they don't have to leave the property at all. 

*photos in my gallery are some of the pets I've cared for and my property where dogs will stay. 

If I could spend every day surrounded by dogs, I absolutely would. Their loyalty, unconditional love, and unique personalities make them some of the most special companions in our lives. I understand that trusting someone with your pet is a big decision, and I promise to care for them with the same kindness and attention I would give my own family. I have always loved being around animals and have experience looking after dogs by feeding them, taking them for walks, playing with them, and making sure they feel safe and comfortable. I’m patient, responsible, and happy to follow your pet’s routine, including medication schedules or special care instructions.I offer dog sitting, drop-in visits, and walks tailored to your dog’s needs. Each visit includes fresh water, feeding if required, playtime, cuddles, and plenty of attention. Walks typically last 30–60 minutes, depending on your preferences and your dog’s energy level.I’m best suited to caring for friendly, well-socialised dogs of all sizes. I provide a calm, clean, and loving environment and am available for both weekdays and weekends with advance notice. My goal is simple: to make sure your dog feels happy, secure, and loved while you’re away, so you can enjoy complete peace of mind. I care for friendly, well-socialised dogs of all sizes and ages. I am also comfortable with puppies and senior dogs who may need extra patience and care. However, I may not be the best fit for dogs with aggressive behaviour or those who require highly specialised medical or behavioural handling beyond basic care instructions.
I live in a clean, calm, and pet-friendly environment where dogs can relax and feel safe. I maintain a consistent routine and ensure pets are never left unattended for long periods. I am available on weekdays and weekends with prior booking, and I prefer clear instructions from owners regarding feeding, walking, medication, and routines to ensure the best care possible.


Hi there,

I’m in my early 30s and work full-time in supply chain for a building company in NZ, with the flexibility to work from home one day a week. When I’m not at work, you can usually find me out in nature enjoying long walks, hikes, or relaxing at the beach. I’d love to take your dog along with me if they enjoy walks and outdoor time.

I’m a huge animal lover. My experience includes caring for a wide variety of animals, from dogs and cats to smaller pets. I also have 5+ years of house and pet-sitting experience across NZ, and I’d be happy to provide references.

I’m now also available to offer dog sitting at my home in Ōtāhuhu. The house is at the end of a private driveway in a nice, friendly, quiet neighbourhood, with a fully fenced and secure garden. There are also parks nearby, which are great for walks and getting dogs out for some fresh air and exercise.

I know how reassuring it is to get updates while you’re away, so I’m always happy to send photos and messages to let you know your pets are happy, settled, and well cared for.

I’m clean, respectful, reliable, and will always treat your home and pets with the utmost care. I understand the importance of keeping a safe, tidy, and secure environment. I’m also a non-smoker and not a party person, you’ll usually find me tucked up in bed by 10 pm most nights!

My available services include dog walking, feeding pets once or twice a day, pet sitting at your home, and dog sitting at my home in Ōtāhuhu.

If you’re looking for a reliable and trustworthy pet sitter, please feel free to reach out. I’d be more than happy to meet you and your pets beforehand to make sure everyone is comfortable and to discuss any specific needs.

Looking forward to hearing from you!

Hi there! My name is Elise and I'm animal mad! I also work for a veterinary company so I live and breathe animals and pets 24/7!

I'm available for house visits, daycare/boarding and dog walking!
I cater my walks to the dog and love to get to know their personalities. 
I am available for dog daycare or boarding for as long as you need. I'm also available for day visits and feeding your precious cats (or whatever animal it may be!). Happy to send daily updates and photos!
I've never not had a dog since the day I was born - from Bernese mountain dog, German shepard to now 2 mini schnauzers, one of which is elderly. I've also grown up with many cats, fish, frogs etc 
I have also always owned and competed horses (eventing). I have been a groom for a top event rider for many years and have experience with sick and injured horses and other animals. 
I have lived on a lifestyle block with sheep, goats, cats, pet ducks, dogs etc and done many farm sits looking after the mentioned as well donkeys and chickens. 
I have many years experience house sitting and pet sitting with all sorts of animals - small, large, furry or not!

I work from home most of the time so this means I am flexible to offer help in the morning or the evening. I can offer to give medication and basic grooming (brushing, washing etc). I can also do 2 visits a day to feed your cat (or fish or whatever you have!) I am also happy to water plants or check mail! I'm also happy to do day visits to let your dog or puppy out and have some interaction and play time! For one visit I can spend up to 30 minutes or two 20 minute visits. 

Dog walking I can do from 30 minutes to 45 minutes. Around your suburb or somewhere local to me (Cornwall park)

I absolutely love all animals and would love to get to know your fur baby too! 

Dog Boarding, Takanini
