Have you tried our pet care calculator?

It’s for both pet owners and sitters to use and helps you gauge the cost of hiring a pet sitter. 🙋🏻‍♂️🙋🏼‍♀️💲

We’ve had some great feedback about this calculator and are often asked how much someone should charge for pet care services. This will give you a good idea of what can be expected in our New Zealand market.

Enjoy!

Are you an active pet sitter in New Zealand?
Behind the scenes, PSNZ has been growing in some really exciting ways, new partnerships are forming, our resources are expanding, and opportunities and enquiries for pet sitters across Aotearoa are on the rise.

BUT our verified sitter community hasn't kept up with that growth. Which means we have more opportunities coming through than we have sitters to refer them to.

Are you an active pet sitter in New Zealand? We're building a priority network list of professional NZ sitters we can contact when opportunities, referrals, and partnerships come through.

If you're interested, make sure your registered as a free member and have joined our mailer list so we can keep you posted.

If your following Peaches story, Misha from Socialdog is doing an incredible job at offering up her time, skills and love and no doubt money to care for Peaches and her newly born bubbies 🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶🐕

Please share this post to help spread the word and source enough funds to supply this crew until they can find their forever homes! 🧡

Thank you Misha and Brett who sounds like he’s contributed a lot to help Peaches 🍑

Peaches & the Peachitos, 8 healthy babies 🩷
Stage 1 labour started yesterday 1 pm, Stage 2 started 8 pm with the first baby and finished around sunrise today with the last baby. Poor darling, exhausted 😞😞😞😞
She did so well 🩷
Big THANK YOU to Brett from Beach Road Vet Clinic for the support - his love and passion for animals is beyond belief 🙏

By the way! Peaches absolutely loved this bed to give birth, which was pristine until all the blood and placenta destroyed it hahah
Does anyone have a similar bed you would like to donate? The brand of this one is Brooklyn.
It works so well as a little nest for her!

And thank you for all the donations received so far. You legends!
If you would like to help with the expenses (8 babies! 😵‍💫), here’s the link:

If you're leaving your pet with a sitter, boarder, or daycare provider, we help make it stress-free with our PSNZ Pet Profile/CV.

The PSNZ Pet CV is a professional, fillable PDF template that puts all of your pet's important information in one organised, easy-to-share document.

It includes feeding routines, medical history, vet details, personality traits, and emergency contacts all in one place, ready to hand over with confidence.

💁‍♀️Pet sitters have the Pet Care Service Agreement.
👩‍💻Pet owners have the Pet Profile/CV.
Together, they cover everything both parties need for a safe, stress-free pet care experience so you can go away knowing your pet is in great hands.🧡📙

Renting with a pet? 🐱🐶🏠Because our PSNZ Pet CV doubles as a professional introduction for rental applications giving landlords more confidence to say yes!

Check it out on our website via the comments.👇
