"Caroline was an excellent pet sitter. She even sent photos of our pets during our absence, rinsed food containers, sorted rubbish and collected mail. Great communication throughout! Would definitely recommend."

"Lucie was absolutely amazing looking after our two cats over Christmas and New Year. She did drop-in visits twice a day, every day, across two stints (3 days and then 5 days), and was incredibly reliable throughout. Our cats are quite shy, and Lucie was so patient, gentle, and respectful of their needs. Communication was excellent with regular updates that gave us real peace of mind while we were away. She also went above and beyond by offering to water our plants and confidently managing our automatic litter tray (which she hadn’t used before), keeping everything clean, organised, and tidy. We came home to happy, well-cared-for cats and a beautifully looked-after home. We wouldn’t hesitate to book Lucie again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, trustworthy, and thoughtful pet sitter."

"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 :) "

"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."

"Thank you Angelique, you were amazing. 🧡🌈❤️ I could not have asked for a better carer for my elderly cats. Angelique spent time with them each day as arranged. She kept me updated on their day through photos and email, which was much appreciated as they are both deaf so take a bit more time. Highly, highly recommended pet carer, with the best care, attention and vibe. Thank you Pawshake and thank you double Angelique. "

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 2496 pet owners in Christchurch have left a review, with an average of 4.96/5. All paid safely using Visa, Mastercard, American Express
