"Pauline was such a brilliant find. She is an outstanding home/dog sitter. Communication was fantastic from the first contact. Pauline made everything happen with such ease. She has great empathy with the dogs and I had such confidence in the care and love she would and did give. I received a daily update including a photo which was greatly appreciated. I would not hesitate to recommend Pauline to anyone who is considering a home/dog sit. I will not hesitate to engage Pauline again when needed. Many thanks."

"We are grateful for Lucy and Tim, for house sitting and taking good care of our Thandi girl’s needs, daily walks and trips to local restaurants were an absolute treat. We received daily feedback on the house and Thandi, we were assured of her happiness and daily routine. A welcome home bottle of wine, clean home and fresh linen were greatly appreciated. We look forward to future bookings for Thandis care with Lucy and Tim. Thank you."

"Rob dog sat for us for a week while we went out of town. I received photos of Rua enjoying herself on walks, and chasing sticks etc. she was also absolutely exhausted when we got home, so I know that Rob was making sure she was getting some good walks and exercise in. Rua even continued to look for Rob in the mornings for a few days afterwards, so I can tell she liked him and was well cared for. In addition, he took excellent care of our home and was very considerate with everything. The home was nice and tidy when we returned. I would absolutely ask Rob to dog sit for us again, and would recommend him to fellow dog parents. "

"Vanessa and James were simply amazing when housesitting our two dogs whilst we went on holiday. We got pictures and text messages everyday with updates which eased our mind whilst we were away. One of my dogs required medicine for an ill timed skin infection which was never an issue. Our house was left in arguably better condition than we left it with even the sheets washed and dryed from the spare room they stayed in. I would without a doubt hope to have them look after our dogs again and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to anyone else. Very grateful!!!"

Other pet care services in Waikanae

Pawshake also offers house sitting in

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 Waikanae 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 Waikanae.

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 Waikanae 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.
