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 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.

Kia ora koutou!
My name is Hazel, I'm a 31yo dog-loving teacher of teens. My key motivator in joining is to make a few extra dollars during the week towards my travel and house-owning goals.
A very close second motivator is my LOVE of dogs and pets. I'm that heart-shaped-eyed gal who stops any conversation or stops whatever I'm doing to stare at a gorgeous doggo passing by, and I'm from a dog-loving household and whānau with 3 Golden Lab/Retrievers in my fam and a beautiful Staffie/Collie X who I'm so lucky to live with.
It would be a treasure to care for your pooch or feline friend. 
I walk, feed, and play with your pet with plenty of attention as desired. I also offer pet feeding services should you be away on a work or leisure trip.
I'm very happy to send written and photo updates and will treat your home and pet with full care and respect.
I'm afraid I cannot offer to host your pet at my home as we have a dog here but I am happy to travel. I currently reside and work in West Auckland (Glen Eden/ Te Atatu) but am a Central girl at heart and love a drive so please don't hesitate to reach out!

Goldendoodle Von enjoys 3 or 4 park frisbee, bush &amp; beach walks &amp; swims a day &amp; loves to share the fun with his dog mates of all sizes. His human BFF, Greg, has extensive experience training &amp; looking after other’s dogs, including support dogs, &amp; housesitting.&nbsp;Von’s too interested in life to waste it laying around sleeping, so our day starts at 7am with the dog socialisation meetup Greg started 4 years ago to ensure our community has only good doggie boys &amp; girls. After brekky we have another morning walk/swim followed by one or two walks/swims in the afternoon. No two days are the same, as we're always rotating our dog friendly on &amp; off leash walking destinations &amp; seeking out new ones. And if you need us to stay over to keep you company while your BFFs are away, we can do that too.We're looking forward to you joining us for one or more of our daily adventures soon.

I grew up on a medium block of land, participating in the care of goats, pigs, chickens, rabbits and many dogs (newfoundland, springer spaniel, border collie, cavoodle, labrador, poodle). After moving to the big city, I missed animals so much. In 2021, I started house sitting and dog walking to make up for this. During this time I also fostered sick kittens from the SPCA, looking after some cats with the flu but specialising in shy and timid cats, helping them warm up ready for their new families. Eventually, December 2022, I adopted my own border collie, Ezia. We do agility training together and while I prefer to bring him with me on walks for socialisation, I can also walk your dog alone if that's what you'd prefer.&nbsp;
Availability: Currently I work with a very early start, leaving me available every week day after 1pm (with some flexibilty).
I may not have many reviews on this app yet but just ask and I can provide house sitting and dog walking references from the last three years.
The services I can provide are as follows:
House visits: Feeding, toiletting, cleaning litter box, medicine administration, watering plants, checking mail. Or even if your pet just needs someone to hang out with for a bit! Walking is not included in single house visits but might be considered in two house visits a day.House sitting: What ever may be required for your pets needs, feeding, walking, medicine etc
Let's start by meeting and learning more about your pets needs! I would love to meet you and your furry friend so shoot me a message :)


Hi, I'm Sheen. Mama to a 8yr old teacup bichon who is my world. ￼During the weekdays I have a lot of time and I'd like to spend my weekdays doing what I love which is spending time with animals, cats and dogs. Hence here I am.￼
We have always had fur babies since I was little so I am well aware of cat&amp;dog first aid, potential feeding regimes, walks and toilet time; and of course play time 
I am happy to bathe and comb fur babies, pet sit at your residence during weekdays or as and when needed and take the pets for walks. I am a animal lover and enthusiastic pet centre – your pets happiness is my priority! Fun, exercise, and snuggles guaranteed! I aim to tailor care, love, and attention to your beloved fur baby or babies.
Let me know about the likes and dislikes so I can personalise their experience 
My experiences are personal and of friend's fur babies - including walks, feeding, shower times and sitting while they have been away on holidays be it for a few days or few weeks.
My fur baby is fully vaccinated and I would appreciate the same from you.
I am up to date with my vaccinations including Covid and tetanus.
Hope to meet many more like minded people and be of help to their fur babies.

Hello dear furry friend owner, I am available to look after your dog while you have to run to an appointment, while you got to go to work (and can't take him or her with you) or while you are away for a night or two. Since I can remember, I cannot walk past a dog without smiling at it and wanting to pet the dog. Unfortunately due to allergies in the family (not me), we were never able to have a dog of our own.But over time I have looked after different dogs (ranging from small to big, calm or energetic, during the day or overnight) and can confidentely say that I get along with any dog and make sure they have a good time and are safe. I am more than happy to either let them just stay inside with me, don't get ever tired of providing belly rubs or go on walks/runs with them. I live right on the slope of Mount Albert, the summit is a very popular dog-walking area where your dog can roam and run and meet other dogs (if your dog's character likes that). Our house is spacious and I have flexible work from home arrangements, so I am able to watch your dog during the week.&nbsp;
Please get in touch with me if you have any questions or enquiries.&nbsp;
Looking forward to hear from you &amp; even more so: Meet your lovely barksy.&nbsp;
Thank you,Laura


Hi! My name is Hahna, and I’m a dedicated animal lover with a deep passion for caring for pets of all kinds. I’ve always had animals in my life—from dogs and cats—and I truly believe that pets are family. My motivation for becoming a pet sitter stems from my love of animals and the joy I feel when I’m around them. I understand how important it is to find someone trustworthy to look after your furry (or feathered!) family members, and I aim to provide the same love and attention you would give them yourself.

I have previous experience pet sitting for friends and neighbors and always make sure each pet feels comfortable and safe. I provide regular updates and follow any care instructions closely. For the safety of all pets in my care, I only accept vaccinated animals into my home. You can trust me to give your pets the attention, exercise, and affection they deserve while you’re away!
