"Kirsten is amazing! The best pet sitter we have ever hired. It is very clear how much she loves animals and how much our little fur boy loves her. She took care of him and our house with the utmost of care. It’s always hard to be away from your pets, but our minds were rest assured by Kirsten's constant updates and efforts to ensure he is in the best of care. Reliable, trustworthy, and excellent communications - thank you Kirsten for being the wonderful person that you are!"

"Kera was great looking after my house and two dogs, easy communication and regular updates to put my mind at ease. No doubt in entrusting Kera house sitting for me again, and in recommending her to others "

"Margorie was a wonderful house sitter for our 16 mnth old dog who has anxiety. She had great communication with us during her stay and regularly updated us with our dogs progress with messages and photos. The house was neat and tidy just like we left it, if not better, and treated our home with respect. I would recommend her to anyone that requires a house and dog sitter and would definitely ask her again in the future."

"Taylor was very friendly and punctual. She communicated fast and was so helpful for us and our dogs. She’s excellent, everything we expected from a sitter/pet sitter. Super trustworthy and caring. We were lucky enough to have a visit from Taylor after our trip to say thank you in person then to see how our dogs were with her, we knew they were very happy and in safe hands. They simply love Taylor. Highly, highly recommended and will be our first choice every time!"

"Jenna was amazing with our border Collie x Aus shepherd and two cats while house sitting for us. She was very trustworthy, caring, conscientious and treated the house and the animals like her own. Communication was awesome with regular photos and updates which we loved. We really appreciate her going the extra mile with time spent with our dog, as well as the house being extra clean when we got home:) We will definitely book with Jenna again whenever we go away! "

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 Palmerston North 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 Palmerston North.

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 Palmerston North 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 Palmerston North on Pawshake. Over 292 pet owners in Palmerston North have left a review, with an average of 4.94/5. All paid safely using Visa, Mastercard, American Express
