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 Woodend 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 Woodend.

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 Woodend 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.

I'm going to be an amazing pet sitter! Growing up on a lifestyle block has given me the opportunity to interact with a wide variety of animals, from cuddly cats to playful pups and everything in between. I have a deep understanding of their needs and behaviors, which allows me to provide them with the love and care they deserve. My friends and family can vouch for my reliability and trustworthiness, as I always follow through on my commitments. But what truly sets me apart is my genuine love for animals. Their well-being and happiness mean the world to me, and I will go above and beyond to ensure they are comfortable and content while their owners are away. I'm also well-versed in basic pet care, such as feeding, grooming, and administering medication if needed. Plus, I'm a pro at providing plenty of playtime and exercise to keep them happy and active. Rest assured, your furry friends will be in safe and loving hands with me as their pet sitter! With my experience, reliability, and passion for animals, I am confident that I will be an exceptional pet sitter! I am happy to pet sit in your home, dog walk and am confident administering most medications. I have previous experience pet sitting for family/friends. 

Hey! I'm Cassidy and I am a pet lover, big or small, fluffy or not... I love them all. I am an enthusiastic energetic person who loves to exercise and has been playing basketball all her life. I'd love to take your doggo out for walks/runs to make sure they get plenty of exercise. I love to find new places to walk so your dogs will be sure to find some amazing new smells! I am reliable and trustworthy and you can always count on me to give your pets heaps of love! 

I love all types of animals however I myself am a cat person but I also LOVE dogs and have grown up with both all my life. I have a soft spot for dogs (especially golden retrievers) because I love to run around and get lots of exercise, but all dogs are amazing and I thoroughly enjoy spending time with them no matter the breed!

I have been a pet sitter for a gorgeous Cavoodle puppy which meant I had to be very vigilant to make sure he wasn't getting into too much mischief! I have also looked after a cat and a larger poodle at the same time which was a blast. I recently house sat a chocolate Labrador which was a challenge because he loved to steal my shoes and socks but ultimately I loved every minute of it! I have a pretty flexible work schedule which means I can be attentive to your animal and give them lots of love and exercise. My services include dog walking, daytime visits, house sitting and check ins . 
I would love to be your pet sitter, I can promise that they will get everything they need and you will not be disappointed! 

Hello there ,&nbsp;

My name is Matt and I have recently brought my first house in the quiet suburb of Redwood . I'm a qualified drainlayer and my hobbies include running, skiing and cycling!&nbsp;
Growing up I was surrounded by dogs and cats and so have always been very fond of pets. My partner and I have recently house sat, and looked after pets for friends and collegues when they have gone on holiday. We both enjoyed spending time with their animals. Due to my housemates I am unable to have a pet of my own at this stage.&nbsp;
My partner and i would love to hear from you and will be happy to answer and questions or queries. Ideally I would prefer to pet sit on the north side of Christchurch (we live in the suburb of redwood) but happy to discuss other options.
Thanks for your consideration and have a great day&nbsp;





Using all my experience as a former teacher, sometimes working in classrooms with 40 children at one time, the ability to nurture, care and adapt to your pets needs will come as second nature. 
As someone with a profound emphasis on fun and friendliness, make no mistake that I'll do anything I possibly can to ensure that your pets are not only looked after to the highest standard, but that they are done so with joy -- for all parties -- in mind. 
Having grown up with dogs in the family, my attachment to them started from an early age with many of my earliest memories spending time with my Uncle's gorgeous Doberman, Dominic. Unconditional love is certainly something not to be underestimated, and it's because of such a deep-set appreciation for dogs (and animals of all kinds), that I'm certain I'd be able to form very close bonds with yours too, if given the chance. 
As a current cat owner, and as someone who has looked after many feline friends in the past, if you also require any needs for your own cats, I'd be just as happy to help.
In the Christchurch area, specifically, I have house-sat for various different dogs of all ages and sizes, all of whom I have formed very tight relationships with, alongside their owners. Tailoring the experience to an owner's exact requirements and requests has been key to such a development.
All in all, including past and present pet-sitting, I've acquired at least three years experience. 
Flexibility is a key factor to determining who you may hire for your needs, and I'd like to think I can offer more than most. Available for you to contact at any time of day or night if ever you need a last-minute pair of hands, I'll be there ready and waiting for your instructions. Communication, too, another key value I believe essential. 
It goes without saying, but because of my vast childcare experience, I am also confident and capable in all types of home. 
Finally, included in my house-sitting costs is a personalised framed photograph of your pet(s), in addition to the peace of mind that comes with a secure, safe, and tidy household on your return.
Need a pair of helping hands? Don't be a stranger. Please get in touch. 
Until then, best regards and Happy New Year.
