"Selina is an absolutely amazing petsitter! She will be the only person I contact from here on out when we need someone to look after our zoo.
The boys were so happy and so well looked after and our cat who doesn’t warm to strangers loved her from day one and didn’t leave her side which is honestly unheard of. Our dogs even seemed sad last night after the initial excitement wore off cause she had left.
House was immaculate, communication was outstanding, our zoo isn’t the easiest or most well behaved and she did such an amazing job I can’t stop raving about her enough, we only got back yesterday and have already sent her profile to anyone I know with pets for if they need a sitter in the future.
Absolutely recommend and we cannot wait to have her back again!"

"Thank you so much Felipe for looking after our reactive dog Ozai.
Our boy has quite a few quirks from his pre resuce days and Felipe was a master at gaining his trust and making him feel happy and content.
Before this pet sit Felipe was an excellent communicator and was so accommodating. He came to meet Ozai twice to gain friendship and to understand Ozai's needs. Ozai instantly loved Felipe and by the end of the second meeting, Ozai was rolling over to get some belly rubs and love from him.
During our weekend away Felipe kept up the excellent communication with regular updates via photos and videos. I was amazed at how much fun Ozai looked to be having. He was goofing around and playing with Felipe and appeared as happy as he does with me and my husband. It looked as though he wasn't even missing us.
On arrival at our home, the house was so clean and tidy and the dog was as happy as can be.
I want to thank Felipe for all the time and effort you have put in. I can not recommend him enough. We will be booking him again as we can not believe our luck in finding such an amazing pet sitter. :)

They treated the house with respect, and all our plants were carefully attended to. Lastly, to top it off, we came back home to a clean and tidy house. Thank you!"

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.
