"We cannot praise Renee enough for the amazing care she provided as our pet sitter and house sitter over the Christmas holidays. It was an absolute joy to have her look after our beloved dog, Scarlet, and our home. Renee went above and beyond to ensure everything was taken care of, and it truly made our time away so much more enjoyable and stress-free. Scarlet, who can be quite sensitive, was calm and relaxed upon our return—a clear sign of the exceptional care she received. Renee was attentive to Scarlet’s special diet and showed incredible care in managing her anxiety during fireworks season, which gave us great peace of mind. We also greatly appreciated the regular updates and adorable photos Renee sent, keeping us connected even from afar. Renee’s dedication extended beyond just pet care. She kept our home and garden in fantastic condition, leaving everything spotless and well-maintained. Coming home to a sparkling pool and a flourishing garden was such a treat! Renee’s friendly, respectful, and peaceful energy makes her a pleasure to work with. We would wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone in need of a trustworthy and caring pet or house sitter. Thank you, Renee, for going above and beyond—you are a true gem!"

"Highly recommend Karmen. She made an effort to get to know me, asked questions about Rosco’s needs and made sure to meet before house sitting. Also a great dog walker who will help with training."

"I was in Rotorua for a short trip with my husband,son any my dog Salty. Orlea took care of Salty so we could enjoy our holiday without any worries.

"This was the first time I’d left my dog in the care of someone outside of family. Melanie took such good care of the dog and the dog that she’s won a friend 😊 The rabbit was also very happy. Would definitely recommend Melanie to anyone needing their critters looking after."

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 Rotorua 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 Rotorua.

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 Rotorua 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 Rotorua on Pawshake. Over 499 pet owners in Rotorua have left a review, with an average of 4.95/5. All paid safely using Visa, Mastercard, American Express
