About Abbey

Now house-sitting from Rolleston thru to Ashburton 🥰


Hi! we are Abbey & Shane. We have been providing security and peace of mind for a number of pet owners across Christchurch and Selwyn now for roughly 14 years. Well I have, Shane joined me a few years back.

We are currently living with my mum, whilst we save for our our own home. Housesitting is a great wee holiday for us away from home, we just love it. We both work, I work in the customer service industry, I am away most of the day. Shane has the ability to be flexible with his hours to spend a few hours at home during the day, and often will spend 3 full days a week working entirely at home.

I grew up with family pets, and I adore animals! I believe it’s important for a pet to stay in their own home environment and be as comfortable as possible while their parents are away on holiday. We have a lot of experience, and have built some great friendships along the way.

We would love to come and meet you and your pets before you go away! We are tidy, trustworthy, reliable, and really enjoy helping people out with their fur babies. You can rest assured with us at our house, we will take care of pets, gardens, collect your mail and whatever else is required.

- We will always make sure your animals are having a super great time with lots of snuggles, if they want them.

- We will always make sure your dog(s) have had the greatest walk! please specify any areas they especially love and we can visit there.

Usually our dog walks are 30 minutes long, but we can adjust this if you have different requirements

- Can adhere to any specialty diets.

- Any medications that need to be given

- Trips to the Groomer! if requested.

- Lots of snuggles, and photos!

- We won't let your plants die or your mailbox overflow!

All we require is your wifi code for our Netflix! 🤣

We are really easy going, we are homebodies, non smokers, and enjoy our own company. We would love to hear from you! Please feel free to also contact us at short notice. (sorry we prefer to housesit only rather than do day visits)

Love Abbey & Shane 🐕 🐈

Abbey and Shane did a great job at looking after our two rather shy labradoodles. They gave the dogs time to acclimatise to them and gradually won their trust. They kept us updated with messages and photos and the house was left clean and tidy.

Abbey and Shane took such good care of our dog and our house and provided us with updates and photos each day.

We would highly recommend them.

Thank you! ☺️
