"Mel & Dan did an amazing job looking after our 8 month old pup and took excellent care of our home. They were very good at communicating with us and we knew our dog had been well cared for and looked after when we got home. 100% recommend to anybody looking for a pet sitter. "

"We could not have asked for a better pet sitter! Bethany treated our dog so well, our dog was so sad to see her go when we eventually came home! We got regular updates and we could see that she was being well looked after so I never worried about her. Bethany was great at communicating and kept our house tidy (not easy with a pup!) She also left us some feedback and some training tips that are very useful (our dog is 1.5 years old). I have my fingers crossed that she will be available the next time we need a pet sitter."

"Lara has taken care of my dog Ella several times now, including dog walks and sitting her at my house for a full day on some occasions. Ella is so excited to see her, and clearly has a really wonderful time! Lara is excellent at communicating, reliable, and really deeply cares for Ella doing everything she can to make sure she’s safe and happy. I can’t recommend her enough and will book again in the future "

"Wonderful! Ewa took really good care of our house and cats while we were away, it was great to be able to relax knowing Ewa was looking after things at home for us. Highly recommend Ewa for house sitting / pet sitting etc. I think one of our cats has trotted off to find Ewa actually, think she prefers her to us 🤭 thank you very much, we really appreciated you’re staying over Xmas and new years.

"Nicole was an amazing dog and house sitter for us. She was direct and easy to communicate with, both before and during her stay, and we felt super confident that our dog was being well taken care of. She also went above and beyond to offer her help when we were in a bit of a bind. We returned home to a spotless house and a happy pup! We would definitely have Nicole sit for us again :)"

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 Porirua 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 Porirua.

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 Porirua 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 Porirua on Pawshake. Over 1492 pet owners in Porirua have left a review, with an average of 4.96/5. All paid safely using Visa, Mastercard, American Express
