House sitting in Auckland

What's waiting for you in Auckland? More than you could possibly imagine! This major New Zealand city has parks, beaches, mountains and more. As well as the stunning nature that New Zealand is known for, Auckland is also a bustling hub with sightseeing, shopping and restaurants to keep you busy. Try house sitting in Auckland, and you'll be blown away by the sheer variety of things to do in and around the city.

Looking after a cat or dog in Auckland is one of the best ways to spend your New Zealand trip. There's no need for a hotel, as you'll be staying in a real local house, with cute animals to look after. Grab the leash and take your new pup pal for a walk around the city, or snuggle up to a cat at the end of the day. Don't miss out on an incredible Auckland experience!

Looking after a dog in Auckland: the best walking spots

Taking care of a dog in Auckland will probably involve a lot of walks, and you're in the perfect place! First, climb up to the obelisk at the top of One Tree Hill for some gorgeous views over the city. Then try the uniquely scenic Auckland Domain, a city park set in the unforgettable location of a dormant volcano crater. If that's not enough for you, head outside the city to the Waitakere Ranges. Any energetic dog will love the chance to go for a hike in this rugged landscape of beaches, rainforests and spectacular waterfalls.

A day out in Rangitoto Island

Just across the harbour, the tiny island of Rangitoto is a must for any house sitters in Auckland looking for a fun day trip. This island burst out of the sea as part of a volcanic eruption 600 years ago. Follow the Rangitoto Summit Track through the lava fields, where you'll have amazing views looking back at the city of Auckland. Even getting to the island can be an adventure. You can take the ferry but, if you want something a bit more thrilling, hop in a kayak and paddle there yourself!

Seeing the sights of modern Auckland

New Zealand is rightly famous for its gorgeous nature, but there's still a lot to see and do in the city centre. Auckland house sitting will give you a chance to really explore this city, starting with the Sky Tower in the CBD. At 328 metres, it's the tallest freestanding structure in the Southern Hemisphere. At the top you'll have panoramic views of the city and, if you're feeling daring, you can even take part in a sport that was born here in New Zealand: bungee jumping! If you prefer to keep both feet firmly on the ground, then there are plenty of other spots to explore in the city, from the great shopping of Queen Street to the buzzing restaurants and bars in the Harbour.
