"Melissa looked after our two dogs and our house while we were away for 5 weeks. We had never left them that long but once we met Melissa we were at ease with going away and knew they would be well taken care of! I can’t rate Melissa highly enough for house sitting, she took the best care of them including special care for one because he still had stitches in from a surgery when we left! We were sent photo updates every day and our house was spotless when we got back. We are so grateful, thanks Melissa!"

"Shanley is a superb pet sitter .
we had never left our boy Bali before ,and we're extremely anxious about going away for two weeks .
After only a couple of days ,we were very at ease ,Shanley tool to our fur babies and them to her like they were family .She showed a lot of love and care to our pets,was very observant and caring,❤️ and had a genuine passion for them .
We received constant updates and photos throughout our trip, we were like, "Our boy is having a holiday of his own and so much fun he won't want us back "
Shanley is a very contentious, caring person in general and has a real affinity with animals.
Our cats were a challenge, but not for Shanley.
She genuinely does this role for the love of animals and doesn't charge much at all compared to others who don't care so much .
I would not hesitate to recommend her,and she has now become part of my fur babies' family .They love her .

"AJ was simply fantastic in all aspects! AJ stayed at our place for 9 nights while we traveled with our Brazilian family. We could see how AJ was amazing with our two cats by the photos she always sent, showing that they were really calm and trusting at all times. Communication was great, and AJ even picked up our mail and put out the rubbish. The house was super tidy when we came back, flawless! Honesty, the best sitter we could have hoped for, and we will definitely be in touch again in the future. I can't recommend AJ enough."

"Catherine and Athen were wonderful pet and house sitters. They looked after our elderly dog Toby extremely well and were very attentive to his particular needs given he is an old dog with some health issues. The house was very clean and tidy on our return and communication was excellent. We would definitely recommend them!"

"Camilla took very good care of our dog, Donnie as well as our home while we were away the past 3 nights. Camilla’s communication is excellent, she sent us daily updates (as we requested) and treated our home with the up most respect. I have already spoken to her about rebooking in the future! Thank you again Camilla, Donnie was such a happy pup when we got home (she was also very tired from all of the obvious playing you had been doing with her). "

"Thanks so much to Sue and Hans for caring for my dog and cat for 2 weeks. The care for my pets and my home was superb and the communication before and during the house sit was excellent and provided great peace of mind. I highly recommend Hans and Sue for gentle, kind care of pets and home and will use them again for sure. So nice to not have to worry or stress about the pets when away."

"Iris is great - it was our second time booking with Iris and she was a perfect sitter for our two dogs and cats. One of our dogs is very nervous and she took it all in her stride. She left our house exactly as we left it and we can't recommend her enough! "

"
Jessie is an honest, reliable and considerate housesitter. The house was very clean and tidy when we arrived back and our cats were very happy and settled. She took great care of our cat Arthur who was not very well. She communicated with us regularly and sent us photo's during our time away. We felt very relaxed knowing our 3 cats were in great hands. Jessie is a warm and friendly person. We would absolutely love to have Jessie back again and will have no hesitation in recommending her to others. "

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 Piha 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 Piha.
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 Piha 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.
