Reactive Dog Sitting 

 

In-Home Care for Dogs Who Need a Little Extra Understanding

IMG_3870_edited.jpg

You go away. We look after your reactive dog.

Not all dogs can be left at kennels or with a casual sitter. If your dog is reactive, anxious, or struggles with new environments, I offer a specialised pet sitting service designed just for them.

​

I’ll stay in your home to care for your dog while you're away—keeping their routine, environment, and stress levels in check. As a certified positive reinforcement trainer with experience in reactivity, I understand how to support dogs with big feelings and I might be able to help on along the way!

  • Optional behaviour support

If you'd like, I can work on existing training or behaviour modification plans during the stay.

  • Daily updates

You’ll receive photo or video check-ins to stay connected while you’re away.If you'd like, I can work on existing training or behaviour modification plans during the stay.

 

Is This Service Right for Your Dog?

This service is ideal for dogs who:

  • Are reactive to other dogs or their environment

  • Feel safest at home and don’t cope well with kennels

  • Need a calm, confident human who understands their needs
     

Important Notes:

  • If your dog has a history of aggression toward people, we may not be the right fit—though I’m happy to work with you through 1:1 training first to explore options.

  • Legal responsibility for your dog remains with you during the sitting period, as required by New Zealand law.

  • A pre-sitting consultation is required before any booking is confirmed.
