"We had a wonderful experience with Adrienne! ❤️ She stayed in our home for two nights and kept us reassured with lovely photos of her and our Moo, along with frequent updates that we really enjoyed while we were away. It was such a relief knowing he was safe, well cared for, and in such lovely company. Moo seemed to really enjoy being with her and clearly trusted her, which meant so much to us. She was a fantastic communicator, so caring and kind with Moo, and she left our home lovely and tidy. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would happily recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter! 🐾"

"Ruby was a breeze to have in our house, and took such great care of the Beagles! She is very friendly and genuine, and we received regular updates over the short time we were away, returning home to find all three dogs very relaxed and happy, and the house spotless. We would absolutely recommend Ruby to anyone looking for a trustworthy, responsible and kind dog sitter and won’t hesitate to book again. Thank you Ruby!! "

"We arrived home to 4 very settled and happy cats and dogs. Julia took great care of them, kept us posted with photos and followed up when she hadn't heard we had returned to make sure she didn't need to pop back. Our home was left clean and tidy and our instructions followed through with care. We knew from the first visit when our most cautious pussycat gravitated to Julia that our pets were going to be comfortable. Thank you 😻🐶 "

"We were absolutely delighted with the care Aisling and Tadhg took of our pup and our home while we were away for three weeks. Such lovely, warm and responsible people. Our pup had a wonderful time - he had heaps of fun and attention and was so carefully cared for. We got lots of photos and updates which we found very reassuring. The house was spotless on our return too. We thoroughly recommend! "

"Brigid and Josh stayed at our place for almost three weeks. They looked after animals, house and section really well. They kept in touch and sent updates, offered to help with airbnb next door, dealt with family collecting things, were very clean and I can’t fault anything. It was lovely that Brigid parents were visiting and could stay too. I can’t recommend highly enough. I just hope they aren’t too busy to come back next time we are away. "

"Louise and Carl and their two sweet sons took great care of our two Pomeranians while we were away overseas for four nights. Their communications were faultless and Louise was very reassuring in listening and responding to all of my concerns about our high maintenance pooches before our departure !! Louise and Carl provided us lots of photos and regular updates while we were away, meaning we could relax knowing the dogs were receiving the best of care. Great dog sitting family !! "

"Myrthe was amazing. She is a great communicator. Sent us photos and updates regularly. The animals loved her. We went away so comforted by the fact that she was there and our fur children were in excellent care. We could totally relax knowing this."

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 Wanaka 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 Wanaka.

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 Wanaka 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 Wanaka on Pawshake. Over 131 pet owners in Wanaka have left a review, with an average of 4.98/5. All paid safely using Visa, Mastercard, American Express
