"Absolutely thrilled with the exceptional care Malika provided for our furry family members, Nico, Billie, and Jinni, during our absence of just over three weeks. From the onset, Malika demonstrated an impressive level of professionalism and genuine affection for our pets and it was very obvious from the outset that she had experience with high energy dogs.
Nico has some specific needs due to his skin allergies, and Malika managed his condition with remarkable diligence. Billie, our usually anxious and nervous little ball of fur, was noticeably calmer and more relaxed upon our return. Malika's gentle and patient approach clearly made a positive impact on her. In fact, I highly suspect both our dogs are somewhat missing her!
Our aged guinea pig, Jinni, was also in great hands. Thank you, Malika, for not overlooking her and ensuring she received the special care and attention she needed.
It wasn't just the pets that were well cared for; our home was left spotless. We returned to find our house in immaculate condition, which showed Malika's respect and thoughtfulness.
In terms of value for money, Malika’s services are worth every penny. Her meticulous care and thoughtful attention ensure that every aspect of pet and home care is covered. We genuinely felt that our pets were not just looked after, but truly loved during our absence.
Malika also maintained excellent communication throughout the entire period. Regular updates and photos kept us connected to our pets and reassured us that they were safe and happy.
Overall, I cannot recommend Malika highly enough. Her dedication to the well-being of Nico, Billie, and Jinni was exemplary. The care and attention she provided went above and beyond our expectations. If you're looking for a reliable, compassionate, and professional pet sitter who delivers incredible value for money, Malika is absolutely the best choice. We will certainly be booking her services again in the future! Thank you, Malika, for everything you did to keep our pets and home safe and happy.

"Annie house-sat for us for three days and took wonderful care of our very spoilt cat. We were really impressed with her consistent communication and regular photo updates, which put us at ease while we were away. Our cat has urinary issues, and Annie was very conscientious with her feeding routine and care. When we returned home, our cat was relaxed and settled, and the house was clean and tidy. We wouldn’t hesitate to use her services again."

"I was beyond happy with Jeanette looking after my little cat Pippi. I couldn't have asked for a nicer, friendlier or more caring and considerate house sitter. Pippi is a very nervous little cat with other people, even with me as her owner at times. and the love, patience and time Jeanette gave in bonding with Pippi was a truly wonderful thing for me to experience. I knew Pippi was in excellent hands and she was one totally happy little cat the whole time I was away - 10th June 2025 until 19th July, so a long sit. I arrived home sick after a long flight last Saturday to find that Jeanette had also washed and folded all the bed linnen, washed towels for me and I am sure my bathroom floors had also been cleaned. She had also left me a lovely welcome home note, together with a small bottle of wine, chocolate and gorgeous little fridge magnets she had made featuring Pippi. I was really "touched" by her thoughtfulness and when I wasn't feeling too well it certainly put a smile on my face.
Should I need a house sitter or someone to feed Pippi in the future I would jump at the chance to book Jeanette again if available and would have no hesitation whatsoever in recommending Jeanette to anyone requiring a very caring, conscientious and loving pet sitter.

My heart was at ease the entire time as she updated me frequently and was so easy to communicate with. I highly recommend her and will definitely ask her in future to care for our fur babies. Thanks Ana! 🥰"

"Nat and Arlo were fantastic pet and house sitters. The house was spotless when we returned, and our dog was clearly very well cared for and happy. Our dog is usually quite nervous and not used to other people, but warmed up to them really well, which says a lot. We felt completely at ease knowing everything was in such good hands and would love to have them back. Highly recommend."

"First time Pawshake user! We had to go overseas at the last minute for a family emergency and needed a dog sitter ASAP. We have a typically anxious german shepherd, which is hard to find a sitter for at the best of times. Becky came to meet our dog 2 days before we left, which was really appreciated! She was amazing with our big dog, sent daily updates, and made us feel extremely comfortable leaving him in her capable hands.
We came home to a clean house, and pur plants were still alive!!
I highly recommend Becky - 11/10.

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 Taupaki 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 Taupaki.
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 Taupaki 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.
