"Esther was awesome while house sitting with our two dogs. She communicated really well with us both before and during her stay. She was kind and gentle with our dogs and even left them a couple of toys to play with. I would happily recommend Esther."

"We feel incredibly lucky to have found Tracy to care for our Ragdoll cat, Yuki. She looked after him for two weeks while we were away, and like always, we came home to a very happy and content cat. Yuki is usually shy, but with Tracy, it’s a whole different story—he’s completely at ease. She truly is a cat whisperer! Tracy has now become our go-to pet sitter because we know Yuki is in the safest and most loving hands. She’s attentive, calm, and genuinely understands feline behaviour, which gives us so much peace of mind when we’re away. Not only did she care for Yuki beautifully, but she also looked after our home and plants, leaving everything in immaculate condition. We can’t thank her enough for the care and thoughtfulness she brings each time. Highly, highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate pet sitter! 🥰 "

"Katelyn is the perfect house sitter! We came home to a clean and tidy home, and we got plenty of photos and updates on our 2 cats while we were on our trip. We were able to really enjoy our trip and we are super grateful to Katelyn for this. Thank you again!"

"Shannon was a fantastic house and dog sitter - calm, reliable, great at communicating and went above and beyond with giving her a bath. She looked after both the house and my dog Ella really well, and I would absolutely book again :) "

"Tumihi did an amazing job looking after my boy. He was well cared for and well loved while i was away, and had an amazing time with Tumihi. Lots of communication and updates as to how my pup was getting on which was fantastic. She also left the house spotless and in perfect condition. I would absolutely recommend Tumihi if you are wanting your fur baby well looked after! "

"Audrey looked after 14 week old terrier cross Biggles from 3:30pm to 9:30pm. We came home to a calm house with Biggles peacefully asleep in his crate. Audrey was easy to communicate with, arrived on time. We would gladly have Audrey back. "

"I honestly can’t say enough good things about Cathy. From the moment we met her, it was clear that she genuinely cares about animals, and that care really showed in the way she looked after Shadow. She was a fantastic pet sitter and treated Shadow as if she were her own, making sure she was well cared for, comfortable, and happy while we were away. We did have an unexpected and stressful incident where Shadow managed to escape from the fenced area. Cathy handled the situation calmly, responsibly, and exactly as you would hope someone would. She immediately took action by contacting the local pound, nearby veterinary clinics, and Shadow’s regular vet, leaving no stone unturned. Throughout the entire process, Cathy kept me fully updated and in the loop, which made a huge difference during what could have been a very worrying time. What really stood out was Cathy’s dedication and professionalism. She didn’t panic, she didn’t give up, and she genuinely went above and beyond to make sure Shadow was safe. Her communication was excellent, and I always felt reassured that Shadow was in the best possible hands. I would not hesitate for a second to recommend Cathy to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and proactive pet sitter. Knowing that someone like Cathy is looking after your pet gives you complete peace of mind"

"After using Pawshake and finding an amazing pet sitter in Petra I can’t see us ever using a kennel or cattery for our fur babies! It was such a relief to be able to leave them in safe, responsible and conscientious hands. Petra was so lovely, a great communicator and we felt at ease straight away after meeting her. Our dog and two cats were well cared for and we had a great holiday without any worries about them or our home while we were away. Thanks Petra, we’d love to have you back in the future!"

"Isabela was great with my puppy Belle and took such a good care of her. Her communication before, during and after was really good and gave me the confidence my puppy was being well looked after and loved. She sent photos and updates during the day, which made me feel relieved and able to concentrate at my work. I would definitely recommend Isabela and contract her service again!"

"We had the most amazing experience with our house sitters and dog sitters while we were away. They took such wonderful care of our dogs, and it was clear they were genuinely happy, relaxed, and well loved the entire time. We were kept updated daily with detailed messages about how the dogs were doing, what they had been up to, and plenty of photos, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were overseas. As first-time dog owners leaving our dogs behind, I was quite anxious, but this experience could not have been better. We would absolutely ask Fernanda and her beautiful family for their help again in the future and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to anyone. Highly, highly recommended!"

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 Upper Hutt 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 Upper Hutt.

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 Upper Hutt 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 Upper Hutt on Pawshake. Over 882 pet owners in Upper Hutt have left a review, with an average of 4.95/5. All paid safely using Visa, Mastercard, American Express
