"I cannot say enough good things about our recent booking with Ginny! Right from the start, she was incredibly responsive and punctual for our initial meeting. This immediately set a positive tone for our experience.
While we were away, we received regular updates about our young puppy and chickens, which not only put our minds at ease but also allowed us to enjoy our trip with peace of mind. Ginny's dedication to our pets' well-being was evident in her attentive care and communication.
Upon our return, we were pleasantly surprised to find our house in better condition than when we left it. Ginny went above and beyond to ensure our pets were safe and well, and she also took care of our home as if it were her own.
We are already looking forward to having Ginny house-sit for us again in the future. Her reliability, genuine care, and professionalism make her an outstanding choice for anyone seeking pet and house-sitting services. We wholeheartedly recommend her to others in need of a trustworthy and compassionate caregiver for their beloved pets and home."

"Ines recently sat for us and was amazing. We have a very anxious pup with separation anxiety and Ines was perfect for her. She is a homebody who genuinely loves to hang out with your pets. She has an incredibly calm demeanor and is a perfect house guest. We have been fortunate enough to secure her over the new year while we are away and we feel so lucky to have found her! It's really hard to find affordable, reliable and available pet sitters who can spend most of the day with your pets. That's where Ines comes in. We can finally breathe a sigh of relief!

"Kate looked after our golden retriever Stanley for 2 weeks and she was absolutely wonderful. She provided quick and easy communication before, during, and after her stay and we came home to a very tidy house and a very happy dog. We are so grateful to Kate for looking after Stanley so well. Due to the last minute booking there were a few logistics she had to deal with including picking him up from the kennels and liaising with our in-laws but nothing seemed to be a problem. Thank you so much Kate! We would not hesitate to have you back. I’m sure Stanley misses you and your smiles very much :)"

Vicky sent us regular updates throughout our time away and treated our dog like it was one of her family members. We have already booked Vicky again!"

Why house sitting ?
Are you going away but have a pet that prefers to stay in their own environment? Or perhaps you have a range of different animals and it’s not practical for you to organise for them to stay in different places? Then you might want to consider finding a Pawshake house sitter to come and stay at your Christchurch home while you are away.
House sitting is a convenient and affordable option when you have multiple pets and also want your house to be securely looked after while you are away. Many of our pet sitters have very reasonable house sitting rates because they enjoy staying and exploring different local neighbourhoods like Christchurch.
At Pawshake, we understand that trusting your home to a stranger can be a little daunting. So we’ve done all the hard work to ensure that your Pawshake house sitter is trustworthy and reliable. All our pet sitter profiles are checked individually by our dedicated trust and safety team and some house sitters also have their own police checks which they can share with you.
The best thing about engaging a Pawshake verified house sitter is that you can relax knowing that on top of being covered by The Pawshake Guarantee which includes veterinary coverage, so your pets are being cared for in a familiar environment and your Christchurch home is also being looked after as well.
In addition to looking after your pets, most of our house sitters will happily help you by collecting your mail, taking out the bins, and watering your plants. Just make sure you discuss all your requirements with your chosen house sitter prior to booking.
