Pet Care Services
Aotearoa Animal Refuge offers pet care services through Pawshake. Every booking directly supports the animals in our care — your pet gets expert, loving attention while you fund our rescue mission.
Care That Gives Back
When you book a service with us through Pawshake, 100% of the proceeds go directly to funding the rescue, rehabilitation, and rehoming of animals across Aotearoa. Your pet is cared for by experienced, animal-loving volunteers who are passionate about what they do.
