"BEST SITTER EVER! Colleen was an absolutely amazing pet & house sitter! We had her stay at our home to look after our cat for a few weeks, and couldn’t be happier with how everything went. She was incredible about sending daily updates with photos and videos, which we loved, and it was so clear our cat was happy, comfortable, and well cared for the whole time.
When we came home, the house was immaculately clean, and on top of that she left us the sweetest bundle of goodies. Colleen truly went above and beyond. We would 100% ask her to sit for us again and recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, trustworthy sitter! "

"Liam was wonderful with our puppy Sabu and we felt completely comfortable leaving her in his care. He was friendly, reliable, and took great care to follow her routine along with lots of cuddles. Sabu definitely made a new friend, and we really appreciated the care, patience, and warmth he showed her. 😊"

"Eileen looked looked after our Greyhound “Bellamy” in our home for 24 nights over December/ Christmas 2025. As we were travelling abroad, we needed someone we could depend upon, including someone that could be relied upon to make logical, practical choices if the time zones weren’t aligned to communicate and give us confidence regarding Bellamy’s common basic first aid needs (he is a real clutz!); Eileen gave us this sense of trust. She provided us with much appreciated updates and affirmations of everything being ok while we were away, including valued photos of our boy. We came home to an exceptionally tidy house, and a very happy well cared for hound. My partner and I are so incredibly grateful to Eileen and recommend her as trustworthy and reliable for dog and house sitting. "

"Josh met up with me and my dogs twice before the sit. He asked questions and ensured that he was familiar with their routine, quirks and the expectations. My girls loved their time with Josh, even my little one who can sometimes take a bit of time to adjust. Josh kept in touch with me throughout the 3 weeks, attended to their individual needs and kept the house neat and clean.
I know my girls were in good hands with Josh and his partner who joined him for part of the sit.
I would definitely recommend Josh as he is a reliable and caring pet sitter."

"Claudia did an absolutely wonderful job taking care of our cats. They are both very shy by nature, but she was incredibly patient and gentle with them and managed to win them over, even getting them to come for cuddles, which is not easy!
She kept us updated with photos and reports, which we really appreciated and gave us great peace of mind while we were away. It’s clear she truly cares about the animals she looks after.
We would highly recommend Claudia to anyone and would be more than happy to have her back anytime. 🐾"

We had the pleasure of having Sophie and Ariel look after our dogs and home, and we couldn’t have been happier.
The dogs were very happy and clearly loved their time with them, and our house was left beautifully tidy and well cared for. Communication throughout their stay was excellent, which gave us complete peace of mind while we were away.
Sophie and Ariel are both lovely, kind and considerate people, it was an absolute pleasure having them stay. We would have no hesitation whatsoever in having them look after our dogs and home again.
We would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for trustworthy, caring and respectful house and pet sitters."

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 Takanini 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 Takanini.
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 Takanini 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.
