"Nikita was the best pet sitter for our dog and cat while we were away for 5 weeks in the UK.
She had great communication with us every day and even sent photos and videos of our sweet pets which made us feel really comfortable. There was a slight mishap with our dog but Nikita handheld it really well and contacted us immediately and was solved quickly as well. She was very pleasant to deal with and we will definitely use Nikita for our future trips we have coming up! Can highly recommend Nikita to anyone needing a caring, calm and loving pet sitter. Thanks again lovely Nikita ♥️😍🥰

"Kate is a wonderful pet-sitter! She was lovely, very patient with my puppy (as well as myself, given I’m anxious leaving my pup under the care of other people) & I came home to a happy dog who was clearly very comfortable and had a good time. Would definitely book her services again and recommend her to others! Thank you 💕"

"I could not have asked for a more loving, kind, accommodating, tidy, attentive, beautiful souls to look after my fur babies.
The dogs were cared for like their own, photos, videos, updates daily was such a nice touch…plus they stuck to the walking arrangement we had as 2 dogs walk better together than the other. Dogs were brushed, clean and phenomenally happy in every way. Further to add, I could not have been happier with the change in temperament of barking of Piper - not sure what they did but they really quietened her down. It was like magic….and having Bubbles with the gang was a real highlight for us as being a small pack having another in is a good teaching lesson for my babies. Plus bubbles is bloody cute!
Beyond all of this we were so lucky to come across these guys. They made it an absolute stress free environment not just for the dogs, but for me. Plus They literally left the house cleaner than the day we left.
100% recommend
100% will be using them again
100% the best dog sitter ever experienced
Thank you again. X"

Luna warmed to her straight away and even slept next to her head in bed which she doesn’t even do with my husband!😂 Jeanette made us feel relaxed knowing Luna was in such wonderful care, thank you so much Jeanette ❤️ "

"Eileen stayed at our house for five nights as a house/puppy sitter, caring for our 14 week old puppy. Eileen was a great communicator both before and during the stay. She was careful to understand Pipi's routine and she kept us informed and updated while we were away. Eileen took great care of the house too. It was so reassuring to have both the house and Pipi in such good care. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Eileen. "

"Hi,
Nikita was awesome. Really easy to communicate with and Jeff was totally comfortable with her right from the first meeting. The whole sitting experience was great with regular updates and photo's from Nikita so we could see what our ratbag was up to. We came home to a spotless house and a very happy and contented pet. Would totally recommend Nikita."

"We recently had the pleasure of having Maria look after our two dogs for a week over new years and we couldn't be happier with the experience! Maria was incredibly attentive and caring, especially towards one of our dogs who has anxiety issues. I could tell that they were in good hands, as Maria took the time to make them feel comfortable and secure.
The house was left clean and tidy, which was a pleasant surprise. We also appreciated receiving photos most days, as it gave us peace of mind knowing our fur babies were doing well. Overall, I highly recommend Maria for anyone looking for someone reliable and compassionate to care for their pets! We will definitely be booking her again for our next holiday. "

"Totally happy with Maxine, she was truly amazing in how she managed our pets, took them on as her own, followed all our instructions and created flexibility to get the job done.
They even got to go on excursions to Port Waikato and Waiheke. The house was left immaculate, and the doggos fit and well.
Maxine illustrates high performance across the board, but equally shows balance. She is warm, bubbly, humble and honest. An asset to Pawshake. 💛
Very greatful and had complete peace of mind in her capabilities.
Thankyou.

"I would highly recommend Cindy and Ronald for pet sitting. Our dogs were extremely well looked after, regularly walked and given lots of love and cuddles while we were away. One of our dogs had a recent eye injury and needed multiple medications each day...this wasnt an issue for Cindy and Ronald. They diligently followed the instructions, administered the medications and provided daily updates. We had complete peace of mind that the dogs were in the best hands and had a great trip. The house was absolutely spotless when we returned too! Honestly, they are the best dog sitters we have ever found! Thank you so much!"

"We rate Belinda a 10/10. She did a fantastic job looking after our three cats, daily visiting magpies and hedgehogs. Belinda kept us up to date with how the dispensing of medication was going for one of the cats and sent photos to show that all was well with the cats being very relaxed and enjoying her company.
On our return, the cats rated Belinda 15/10 and were extremely relaxed."

Anna was great, Zippy adapted well to her staying in the house and we came home to a clean, tidy house and a very relaxed hound. We highly recommend Anna and wouldn't hesitate to have her look after our house and pets in the future. Thanks Anna. 🙂"

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.
