"Fantastic. Paige called in twice during the day to make sure that our dog was ok. Calm with animals, and our dog took to her straight away. Highly recommend!"

"Lisa looked after our two cats while we were away at xmas for a few days. I couldnt reccommend her highly enough for anyone looking for a pet carer. She was extremely reliable, spent time playing with the cats and giving them pats etc. Followed our feeding, treats, cleaning litter routine with no issues. She was able to give one of our cats his medicene each day. She also sent us pictures and videos of both cats every time she visited and let us know how everything was going. I normally always worry when we are away and someone is looking after them for us, but this time i could clearly see they were in good hands and doing well from the videos so for the first time ever i was not worried about them while we were away. She also collected mail, closed and opened curtains, put out rubbish bins, watered plants etc which was extremely helpful. Will definitely be using Lisa again when we go away. Thanks so much Lisa you were absolutly amazing. 😃"

"We used Xiangyi & Yiming for the first time to top up water and a pair of large outdoor food dispensers for our very shy stray cat that we have named "Fluff". They visited four times while we were overseas for a period of three weeks. We found them to be a very conscientious and caring couple. Although (and not surprisingly) they never managed to meet "Fluff" they provided us with excellent reports and photos of the feeding station each time they visited. We were totally satisfied with the service they provided and would recommend them to anyone looking for a cat sitter."

"We are first time pet owners and were unsure how it would go with having a pet sitter come to the house to look after our wee rabbit Monty. Charlotte was an absolute gem, and we immediately felt at ease with leaving Monty in her care. Monty had been unwell the week prior to our planned holiday so we were concerned leaving him when he was only just back on the road to recovery. Charlotte did a great job of administering his medication and was very competent in this regard, and she kept us regularly updated when visiting the house which reassured us that Monty was in safe hands. We will definitely engage Charlotte again as a sitter for Monty - she was friendly, polite and had great warmth when talking about animals in general and more specifically a lovely nature when dealing with Monty. Charlotte followed all our guidelines for Monty's care and I think his area was cleaner when we arrived home than when we left! We would highly recommend Charlotte as a pawshake sitter, she did a great job and we were very lucky to have found her through the pawshake website."

"Lisa took such great care of my kitty Astra while I was away. Astra was such a happy kitty when I got home, she obviously enjoyed having Lisa taking care of her. I appreciate having someone there each day who I knew was taking good care of her, so I didn’t have to worry or stress out about leaving her at home. I will happily recommend Lisa to others and also will be booking her again when I am away :) "

"Due to a last minute change in my sitter, I googled Pet sitters Chch and found Pawshake. From this, Lizzy was the sitter who are close to my house and available. Additional to that we were unable to do a meet and greet, however I provided her the necessary information. I highly recommend Lizzie's service and my cats were wonderfully taken care of while I was overseas for 5 days. She sent photos and videos and of my babies so I could relax and know they were in safe hands. I would definitely use her services again."

"Samantha is that above and beyond pet sitter you always hope for. Our fur baby changed her toileting habits, and then our travel time extended, but Samantha cheerfully stepped up to everything all the while keeping us totally informed. We would only use Samantha now, and we couldn’t recommend her enough to others. Heaps of thanks Samantha. 😀💐"

"Tatiana looked after our 7-month old puppy. She's a professional and conscientious pet sitter who calmly and confidently managed our boy's puppy energy. Tatiana also did a great job taking on the training/command routines we explained to her, which was very important to us."

Why pet sitting ?

When you have to go away or work long hours, you may worry about leaving your pet home alone. Have you ever wondered “Is there a pet or dog sitter in Christchurch that can help?”.

Luckily, with Pawshake, you can easily find local and trusted pet and dog carers from Christchurch to provide drop in visits and other services. This means a pet sitter will come and visit your pet at a time you both agree on and provide lots of love and personal attention. This can include playtime in the backyard, a walk to the local park, or just some cuddle time. Our pet carers can also administer medication, give food, and refresh the water bowl.

In home pet sitting services are a great way to break up the day and enrich it for your pet. Pawshake pet sitters have extensive experience caring for a range of pets including dogs, cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, birds and more. If you have multiple pets, home visits are a great option to ensure that they all get a visit and lots of attention during the day.

Drop in visits are the least stressful option for your pet because your pet can stay in their favourite environment – their own home in Christchurch. Their surroundings will be familiar and our loving and passionate Pawshake sitter will spoil them each day. Our sitters will treat your home with respect and are flexible with timing, requests and durations. All this can be discussed before you make a home visit booking.

Pet boarding is a great option for when you are away for a few days and your pet needs overnight care. Unlike pet hotels, Pawshake pet boarding allows you to arrange a personalised daily routine for your pet, whether this be extra belly rubs, playtime or 24 hour supervision. Your pet will stay with the pet sitter in a cosy home environment, rather than a large, impersonal pet hotel.

So whether you need just one day, a week or even a month, you’ll be able to find an experienced pet or dog carer to accommodate you and your pet’s needs in Christchurch. The best part is that your Pawshake pet sitter is from your local neighbourhood, so they will be familiar with the area.

Our pet carers also have a range of experiences which include puppies, seniors, nervous pets and dog training. So if your pet has special requirements, you’ll be sure to find a pet sitter that is a good match for you.

Your pet’s safety and welfare is a big priority for us, which is why all of our Pawshake pet sitters undergo a strict vetting process by our trust and safety team. At Pawshake, we understand that you might feel a little uneasy allowing a pet sitter to enter your home or arranging pet boarding at their place. This is why Pawshake pet sitters also have reviews from other pet parents that are publicly available on their profile for you to read.

Each pet sitting home visit and pet boarding booking made through Pawshake is covered by the Pawshake Guarantee, which includes veterinary coverage, customer support 7 days a week and more. Rest easy knowing that your pets will be well looked after by one of our expert pet carers in Christchurch.

Pet owners book pet sitting in Christchurch on Pawshake. Over 2214 pet owners in Christchurch have left a review, with an average of 4.97/5. All paid safely using Visa, Mastercard, American Express
