"Mel & Dan did an amazing job looking after our 8 month old pup and took excellent care of our home. They were very good at communicating with us and we knew our dog had been well cared for and looked after when we got home. 100% recommend to anybody looking for a pet sitter. "

"I really appreciate Riley’s time, dedication, patience, and understanding of what I wanted her to work on with my puppy. I could tell how calm my puppy was after spending two days with her, and it made me so grateful to know everything went so well. She explained every detail of what they did, how my puppy behaved, and was very honest about the way she handled things which was so nice of her. She was very attentive to detail and respectful of my home while staying overnight as well. I will definitely rebook with Riley for any future needs and highly recommend her.Thank you so much again, Riley, for looking so well after my puppy💜🙏"

"I had a wonderful experience with Meg and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for reliable and caring support for their pets. Communication was excellent throughout — I received regular updates, photos, and quick responses whenever I had questions, which gave me real peace of mind. While I was overseas, my fur baby Jamie was diagnosed with cancer. Meg not only ensured that Jamie received all the care he required during that difficult time, but she also made sure his medication was administered punctually and properly. Knowing he was in such capable and compassionate hands meant everything to me. Meg truly went the extra mile to make sure my pet was comfortable and well taken care of. It’s clear that she is very knowledgeable about pets and understands their behavior and needs. Most importantly, she genuinely cares — Jamie was happy, relaxed, and clearly very well looked after. I’m so grateful for her attentive and thoughtful care, and I will definitely be booking her again in the future."

"Nicole was an amazing dog and house sitter for us. She was direct and easy to communicate with, both before and during her stay, and we felt super confident that our dog was being well taken care of. She also went above and beyond to offer her help when we were in a bit of a bind. We returned home to a spotless house and a happy pup! We would definitely have Nicole sit for us again :)"

"Joanne did a fantastic job looking after our two dogs. She house and pet-sitted for 5 days and kept me up to date with how everything was going. She left the house in great condition and the dogs were very well looked after. Before we went away she came over to meet the dogs and we went though everything she needed to know. I would highly recommend Joanne as a pet sitter and we'd be happy to book her again in the future. Thanks Joanne!"

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 Wellington 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 Wellington.

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 Wellington 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 Wellington on Pawshake. Over 1510 pet owners in Wellington have left a review, with an average of 4.95/5. All paid safely using Visa, Mastercard, American Express
