"Alex looked after my St Bernard dog and she was great! Communication was amazing and my boy was very well looked after. I would definitely book her again in the future and highly recommend her to any pet owner looking for a reliable sitter."

"Kate is a wonderful pet-sitter! She was lovely, very patient with my puppy (as well as myself, given I’m anxious leaving my pup under the care of other people) & I came home to a happy dog who was clearly very comfortable and had a good time. Would definitely book her services again and recommend her to others! Thank you 💕"

"We were very happy with the care and attention that Ksenia gave our ocicat Mya whilst staying in our home for 13 days. Ksenia is very amenable and trustworthy, kept us informed with pictures etc handled a bird episode for us very well , and we returned to a very happy cat. We would be very happy to engage Ksenia with her house/ cat sitter services again ! Dianne and Carl"

"We recently had the pleasure of having Maria look after our two dogs for a week over new years and we couldn't be happier with the experience! Maria was incredibly attentive and caring, especially towards one of our dogs who has anxiety issues. I could tell that they were in good hands, as Maria took the time to make them feel comfortable and secure. The house was left clean and tidy, which was a pleasant surprise. We also appreciated receiving photos most days, as it gave us peace of mind knowing our fur babies were doing well. Overall, I highly recommend Maria for anyone looking for someone reliable and compassionate to care for their pets! We will definitely be booking her again for our next holiday. "

"I would highly recommend Cindy and Ronald for pet sitting. Our dogs were extremely well looked after, regularly walked and given lots of love and cuddles while we were away. One of our dogs had a recent eye injury and needed multiple medications each day...this wasnt an issue for Cindy and Ronald. They diligently followed the instructions, administered the medications and provided daily updates. We had complete peace of mind that the dogs were in the best hands and had a great trip. The house was absolutely spotless when we returned too! Honestly, they are the best dog sitters we have ever found! Thank you so much!"

"Abby was a great housesitter for our two pets Lola and Oscar. Abby was a great communicator providing regular updates, she was also comfortable with administering Lola’s medication which was amazing. She left the house lovely and tidy for us to return to too. Would highly recommend Abby and will look to use her again in the future 😊"

"We recently had another incredible experience with Melanie. Despite reaching out to her last minute, she graciously agreed to take care of our home and our beloved Pixie for a two-night stay. On one of the days, Melanie had work commitments but went the extra mile to organise for her partner to look after Pixie throughout the day. Her dedication and willingness to go above and beyond in every aspect truly stood out. Pixie adores Melanie, and it was evident that he had the best weekend under her care. We are so grateful for Melanie's exceptional service and the genuine affection she showed our doggo. We are looking forward to a meet and greet so Pixie can make some new furry friends - Melanie has 4! Thank you Mel, and see you soon! "

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 Karaka 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 Karaka.

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 Karaka 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.

Pet owners book house sitting in Karaka on Pawshake. Over 2309 pet owners in Karaka have left a review, with an average of 4.95/5. All paid safely using Visa, Mastercard, American Express
