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 Red Beach 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 Red Beach.

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 Red Beach 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 are a mature married couple, dependable and experienced house sitters, we have been housesitting fulltime for more than 2,5 years now and have a broad experience taking care of animals from cats and dogs, to sheep, horses, and cattle. We are available for housesitting primarily from Auckland to the far north. Our sevices includes housesitting, caring for your animals, security of your property and home, and can also include garden care, for longer housesits. We both love animals, and have grown up with pets, cats and dogs.&nbsp;

Linda is a Danish girl with a bachelor in social-education; she is organized, warmhearted, gentle, smiles easily and loves children.
Dion grew up on a hobby farm in one of New Zealand farm areas. Through his childhood and youth, He helped his parents out around the farm, tending to the sheep and goats, building fences and doing renovation work. In his later years, He has been entrusted with both house and property maintenance, and has multiple references for this. He is experienced in contract building, as well as painting and joinery.&nbsp;
Linda grew up in Denmark, as a child she had an early love for animals and caring for them, even finding wounded animals trying to nurture them back to health.

Other than that, she has been working as a house sitter and childcare worker in a private home for a period of 2 years, caring for 3 children whom tragically lost their mum.&nbsp;
We both have a high respect for being in your private home, and will treat it with utmost honor. We are family oriented people, quiet and down to earth. We love to adventure and explore while learning new things. Together we enjoy camping, tramping and being in nature. We are looking to build our own home here in New Zealand one day, but for now, we are keen to and exited about housesitting, while we are saving for our own future home, that others might sit.
Looking forward to hearing from you, to connect, and get to know each other some more. Please let us know your housesitting need and requirements,  and we will get back to you and let you know if we can help. also we have multiple references from the past years that we can forward to you.

Hello! My name is Gemma and my son, Max, is an 11-year-old animal lover who enjoys taking care of pets. According to Pawshake rules, Max will always be accompanied by a parent.

We have experience in taking care of pets for neighbours and friends by feeding them, brushing them, regularly walking them, and cleaning up after them.
We are happy to look after smaller pets like fish or turtles, and we are willing to discuss costs depending on the type of animal and the work required.

What recent pet owners have said about me: 
"Gemma has looked after our fur baby since 2019. We prefer to let Socks stay home rather than the stress of a cattery, he then gets to enjoy home with the added bonus of Gemma's company.  Gemma is professional and organised and I know if anything was to happen to Socks, Gemma would be very capable in any situation. We love Gemma!"


Hi, I’m Sofia Acarapi, a 24-year-old Valuer working full-time in a corporate role.I’ve been surrounded by dogs my whole life, growing up with one and now sharing my home with my lovely Japanese Spitz. In high school, I aspired to become a veterinarian and even completed my required hours, but ultimately chose a different path and graduated with a Bachelor of Property and Commerce from the University of Auckland in 2025.
Despite the career shift, my love for animals has never faded. I’m always the one patting pets at gatherings or stopping to play with dogs at the beach. I walk my own dog most days and often help friends by walking theirs when needed. Pet sitting/walking allows me to stay connected to that passion and provide care to animals while giving owners peace of mind. I’m excited to meet new fur friends and offer a safe, loving environment while you're away.&nbsp;


Hi, I’m Sunny! I’ve always had a deep love and respect for animals. Growing up surrounded by pets, I learned early on how important it is to give them not just food and exercise, but also care, attention, and affection. I understand that pets are family, so my goal is to provide them with the same love, attention, and care they would get from you. My motivation to be a pet sitter comes from wanting to do what I love and provide peace of mind to pet parents while giving their furry family members the love and care they deserve.
I offer a variety of services to suit your pet’s needs, including dog walking, daily home visits (once or twice a day), and overnight house sitting. Whether your furry friend needs a fun walk to burn off energy, a quick drop-in for feeding and playtime, or full-time companionship while you’re away, I’m here to help. I am attentive, patient, always tailoring my approach to each pet’s unique routine and committed to keeping pets happy, healthy.
I have experience caring for pets with different personalities and needs, and I always take the time to make them feel comfortable. Your pets will be treated like family while in my care. To ensure everyone’s safety, I only care for vaccinated pets. You can count on me to be dependable, trustworthy, and caring while looking after your furry family members.
I look forward to meeting you and your pets!

I am experienced with dog feeding, walking, overnight sitting and ear injections medicines...

Experienced Pet Sitter with a Passion for Animals
Having grown up on farms in Zimbabwe and in the UK, often helping with milking cows or lambing season, this started my love of all animals, spending a lot of time in the game reserves in Zimbabwe.

Hi there! My name is Sheila, 31, work in the stock broking industry and live with my handsome Persian X Chinchilla cat, Zeus. 
From 14-19, I had my first job as a kennel girl at a Veterinary Clinic on the North Shore. I've always had a big heart for animals but as a child I was only ever allowed one pet at a time. So, working here part-time through high school was a dream because I was surrounded by every breed, every size, and all needing loving, nurturing care. 
What I offer:
Dog walking and house sitting services
Daily photos for your peace of mind&nbsp;
Ample exercise for your dogs - whether they love the beach or park, or both!
Playtime with your cats - mine loves cardboard boxes, balls of string, a mouse, feather wand, endless bouncy balls
Endless love, cuddles, genuine attention and care as if they were my own&nbsp;


Kia Ora, My name is Cory, a 21-year-old student in my third year at AUT University, where I’m studying Sport and Recreation, with a major in Health and Physical Education. My passion for fitness and well-being extends not only to people but also to our four-legged friends. Over the last 1 ½ years, I’ve been running my own dog walking and pet-sitting business, ‘Woof n Walks,’ where I take pride in keeping dogs active, healthy, and happy while providing peace of mind to their owners.
I offer a range of flexible services to meet your dog’s needs. My walking services include trips around your neighborhood, local parks, or even beach walks—perfect for giving your dog the exercise and fun they crave. Whether your dog needs a short stroll or a longer adventure, I’m here to ensure they stay fit and get the fresh air and mental stimulation they need.
If you’re busy but want to make sure your dog is well taken care of, my drop-in service is a great option. I’ll stop by to check on your pet, make sure their food and water bowls are full, and spend some quality time playing with them to keep them engaged and happy while you’re away. This is perfect for dogs who need a little break in the middle of the day or just some company.
For those times when you’re going away overnight or for an extended period, I also offer house-sitting services. I’ll stay at your home, making sure your dog is comfortable, walked, fed, and cared for just as you would. You can relax knowing your pet is in safe hands, receiving plenty of attention and affection.
What sets ‘Woof n Walks’ apart is my dedication to ensuring your dog’s physical and emotional well-being. I understand that every dog is unique, and I strive to provide personalized care that fits their personality and routine. Whether they love energetic runs or slower-paced walks, I’ll tailor the experience to meet their needs.
My slogan is ‘A+ Four-Legged Fitness’ because I believe in keeping dogs active and healthy, both mentally and physically. I look forward to working with you and providing the best possible care for your furry friend!”
