Professional in-home pet care and hosting services for all pets across Hamilton and Taranaki
When Your Pet Prefers the Quiet Life
Not every dog thrives in busy day care environments, and not every pet owner needs traditional facility-based care. Our Paws at Home programme is paw-fect for pets that prefer quieter environments and the comfort of familiar surroundings – whether that's their own home or a welcoming Home Host family.
Whether you're heading away for work, going on holiday, or simply need companionship for your pet during busy days, our Paws at Home team is ready to provide the caring, professional service your furry family deserves.
Two Paw-some Service Options
🏠 Home Hosts - Pet Day Care & Holidays
Your Pet's Home Away From Home

In-Home Pet Care Services
Paw-fessional Care for All Your Animals While You're Away
Most pets don't mind their owners going out briefly – in fact, many probably enjoy the freedom! But bring out that suitcase and watch them start to react. Cats might sulk, dogs may hide, and even chickens seem to sense when something's up.
Whether you're planning a holiday, dealing with an emergency, or need to be away for a day, week, or month, our paw-some Pet Care Team provides professional in-home care for ALL types of pets that keeps your animals happy and your mind at ease.
