Top cities for house sitting in New Zealand

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 Patumahoe 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 Patumahoe.

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 Patumahoe 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.

We have always had pets growing up (we had a Jack Russell named Speedy, a Rottie x named Roxanne, and a German Shepherd named Jim).  We were always taking in stray cats, and Kittens along the way too! I have a passion for learning and understanding all different types of animals, but mostly cats and dogs.  My experience in Pet Care is from having my own fur babies and caring for family and friends beloved cats and dogs over the years. We have a 5 year old sassy, beautiful, British Bulldog named Rumble.  We took her to puppy school, and we learnt a lot about how to train and care for her properly through obedience skills, stimulation and finding out what motivates her to listen. she has a strict routine, around 7am she needs breakfast and a walk (or a drive if the weather is bad).  She then needs to go down for a nap. Sometimes she likes to have a olaytime during the day, however shes now at an age where she is sleeping longer.  She has a specific dinner time and after a brief play or a short walk, its sleep for the evening. While her needs are specific, once she's taken care of, I have plenty of free time while she's napping for extensive periods during the day (Her breed naps for hours). Due to her breed, she has skin sensitivities to different grasses, and has a specific diet which we strictly follow.  She has free reign in our house so I don't offer my home for day care or sleepovers unfortunately, but I'm happy to come to you!  Hopefully I can get the opportunity to meet your fur baby sometime for cuddles, walks or whatever they need for your peace of mind!

Hi yah!
My name is Sam and I love all things pets! we currently have one small dog, Pepper, and live out in Takanini. I recently have had a change in career which allows me to spend more time at home than I have previously, so looking to spend some more time with furry friends!&nbsp;
I have been brought up with dogs and pets my entire life, so have experience looking after all range of dogs and pets!
Growing up I had experience with Rotties all the way down to pugs!&nbsp;
Our home is small, however we do regular walks and adventures with our pup and will do the same with yours! We like to go around walks in the neighbourhood, in the Hunua Ranges and at the beach! Your pup will need to be fully vaccinated and house trained to stay with us!&nbsp;
Please reach out with a message if you have any further questions. Looking forward to hearing from you!&nbsp;

Hi there! I’m Queenie — a caring and dependable pet lover based in Wattle Downs Auckland . I’ve been helping friends and families with pet and house sitting for several years, and I absolutely love the joy (and cuddles!) that come with spending time with animals.

My service includes:
- House sitting (overnight if required): cleaning, laundry, plant care, ironing
- Pet sitting: visiting, walking (a good 30' or more if required), feeding, showering, playing

I treat every furry friend like a true friend — making sure they’re happy, safe, and loved at their own home while you’re away. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, or just keeping them company, I take pride in creating a calm and comfortable environment for them. ‍

I have rich experience with small to medium dogs, cats (elderly cats on medication!), chickens and bunnies. I’ve got some wonderful references from happy pet and house owners who appreciate my reliability, attention to detail, and genuine care. You can read them in my profile.

Pet sitting isn’t just a side hustle for me — it’s something I truly enjoy. So if you’re looking for someone who’ll care for your pets and your home as if they were their own, I’d love to help! 

Hiya! Pet enthusiast here, who would love to welcome your babies into their new home away from home  
A West Auckland local, who has always been an animal person, grown up around chickens and cows and cats and doggos, your pet will get treated as one of my own, given all the love it could possibly imagine, and spoilt beyond measure. Happy to abide by any of your own house rules - dog sleeps in the crate, cool. Dog wants to sleep in our bed, also cool. 
Household has a miniature dachshund named Peach and a cat named Meow (the name has a long story!) both who love visitors and provide entertainment for your own pet. We love taking dogs out to our local beach Pt Chev on leash, on walks around the park, to cafes or even Bunnings, so you know your doggo will never be alone and go wherever we go. We have flexible work conditions so somebody is always home when your pet is here. The property is our own and super small dog (think ramps, etc). 
We have doggy-sat countless dogs in our house, all of whom have had an amazing time and I haven't yet looked after a dog who doesn't become my best friend! Also have lots of experience with cats (I mean, Meow adopted us, not the other way round, of course) for any day visits you require. 
Due to having our own pets in the house, we will only accept vaccinated and not sick pets for stays in our home. 


I’ve had a deep love for animals since childhood, and that passion has only grown stronger over the years. Having always had pets of my own, I understand how much they mean to a family and how important it is to find someone you can trust to care for them.
My experience includes caring for pets belonging to family and friends, as well as working in a kennels and cattery for 1.5 years. I’ve also completed a Certificate in Animal Care through the Waikato Institute of Technology, where I gained hands-on experience with a wide range of animals, including dogs, cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, rats, mice, fish, terrapins, and more.
I am confident working with dogs of all breeds and sizes and am happy to walk multiple dogs or care for more than one pet in the home. Whether your dog has a regular walking schedule or specific training cues, I’m happy to follow your routine to ensure consistency and comfort. I also offer light training reinforcement and grooming upon request.
Providing pets with love, structure, and safety is my top priority. Whether you're looking for a reliable dog walker, someone to house-sit with your pets, or simply need an extra hand, I’m here to help with care you can count on.
