Dog sitting in Wellington is in high demand, as residents regularly need someone to look after the pets while they are away.

Better for your pets

Pet sitting means that the sitter is living in your home while you're away. This allows your beloved pet to stay in their own familiar environment, with human company and love—making it the very best option for your pet's health and emotional well-being, in most cases.
