"The experience of using Brydie was great. Initial comms good and easy to arrange the meet and greet. Brydie arrived on time and lovely down to earth person. Brydie came to our house each day to take care of our bunny and shared good updates and pictures. We felt like he was in good capable hands and could rely on Brydie to do a great job."

"Brianna was absolutely lovely with our Amihan and Lagim. It was obvious from the start that she cares a lot for animals and will do her best by them - even before our meet and greet, she's asked very relevant questions about our babies' care! Our normally shy cats took to her right away too, and we were able to enjoy our time away knowing they were in her care! "

"Highly recommend Liz as a pet sitter. I was a bit nervous leaving our young cat for the first time, but was very happy and at ease to have Liz sitting. Liz made the whole process a breeze and it was great to have the updates and pictures :) Thank you from me and Hamish :) "

"Absolutely wonderful experience having Kelly look after our cat and we will absolutely go with her again next time we need a cat sitter! Our cat, Dayz, adored her and she did an amazing job of caring for her over the 21 days we were out of the country. Kelly sat with Dayz and took the time to bond with her which was fantastic as Dayz was very anxious around previous cat sitters who just came in to feed then leave again. I highly recommend if anyone has the opportunity to have Kelly look after their pets, go for it! You won’t regret it :)"

"Christina is the first pet sitter we used on Pawshake, and she’s really amazing! We could really tell that she genuinely loves and cares about our cats. Morning (our cat) was a bit shy at first but eventually became very comfortable and even needy around her 😂 Communication was absolutely perfect - she sent report cards, messages, photos, and videos after every visit, which was a big relief to us while we were away. She also carefully monitored Morning’s pee clumps for any unusual color, as he has kidney issues. We truly appreciated everything she did for us and for the cats, and will definitely reach out again for our next trip!"

"Tatiana looked after our 7-month old puppy. She's a professional and conscientious pet sitter who calmly and confidently managed our boy's puppy energy. Tatiana also did a great job taking on the training/command routines we explained to her, which was very important to us."

"Fern and Mei took care of our cat while we were away for 2 weeks and we are so happy we chose them! They were the perfect fit. Our cat took to Fern immediately. They also sent photos everyday which made us feel reassured that she was in good hands. Would absolutely book with them again and recommend using them for our pet-sitting needs. "

Why pet sitting ?

When you have to go away or work long hours, you may worry about leaving your pet home alone. Have you ever wondered “Is there a pet or dog sitter in Christchurch that can help?”.

Luckily, with Pawshake, you can easily find local and trusted pet and dog carers from Christchurch to provide drop in visits and other services. This means a pet sitter will come and visit your pet at a time you both agree on and provide lots of love and personal attention. This can include playtime in the backyard, a walk to the local park, or just some cuddle time. Our pet carers can also administer medication, give food, and refresh the water bowl.

In home pet sitting services are a great way to break up the day and enrich it for your pet. Pawshake pet sitters have extensive experience caring for a range of pets including dogs, cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, birds and more. If you have multiple pets, home visits are a great option to ensure that they all get a visit and lots of attention during the day.

Drop in visits are the least stressful option for your pet because your pet can stay in their favourite environment – their own home in Christchurch. Their surroundings will be familiar and our loving and passionate Pawshake sitter will spoil them each day. Our sitters will treat your home with respect and are flexible with timing, requests and durations. All this can be discussed before you make a home visit booking.

Pet boarding is a great option for when you are away for a few days and your pet needs overnight care. Unlike pet hotels, Pawshake pet boarding allows you to arrange a personalised daily routine for your pet, whether this be extra belly rubs, playtime or 24 hour supervision. Your pet will stay with the pet sitter in a cosy home environment, rather than a large, impersonal pet hotel.

So whether you need just one day, a week or even a month, you’ll be able to find an experienced pet or dog carer to accommodate you and your pet’s needs in Christchurch. The best part is that your Pawshake pet sitter is from your local neighbourhood, so they will be familiar with the area.

Our pet carers also have a range of experiences which include puppies, seniors, nervous pets and dog training. So if your pet has special requirements, you’ll be sure to find a pet sitter that is a good match for you.

Your pet’s safety and welfare is a big priority for us, which is why all of our Pawshake pet sitters undergo a strict vetting process by our trust and safety team. At Pawshake, we understand that you might feel a little uneasy allowing a pet sitter to enter your home or arranging pet boarding at their place. This is why Pawshake pet sitters also have reviews from other pet parents that are publicly available on their profile for you to read.

Each pet sitting home visit and pet boarding booking made through Pawshake is covered by the Pawshake Guarantee, which includes veterinary coverage, customer support 7 days a week and more. Rest easy knowing that your pets will be well looked after by one of our expert pet carers in Christchurch.

Pet owners book pet sitting in Christchurch on Pawshake. Over 2657 pet owners in Christchurch have left a review, with an average of 4.97/5. All paid safely using Visa, Mastercard, American Express
