It means more without money

Pet sitters aren’t here to make money. All they ask for is a free place to stay, which means your only cost for unlimited pet care is an annual membership — it's that simple.

Since joining, we’ve had the pleasure of hosting five fantastic sitters in our Swiss apartment. We’ve had paramount care for our furry friends and also met some fantastic people. All I can say is thank goodness we tried TrustedHousesitters!

House and pet sitters in New Zealand

While there are boarding kennels across New Zealand, house and pet sitters are preferred by Kiwi pets and owners alike. Why? Because it’s the pet care solution that lets pawed, clawed, finned, and farm animal friends stay in their happy place — their own home. And knowing their pet is boarding at home, safe and happy, owners can finally travel with true peace of mind.

It’s loving pet care for birds, rabbits, and even alpacas. So if you’re ready for a weekend away or an adventure out of New Zealand, house and pet sitters can help. Connect with local dog sitters, nearby cat carers, or someone from further afield with farm experience.
