Having a pet

It’s important to let us know if you have, or would like to get, a cat, dog or livestock animal.

Thinking about getting a pet?

If you already have a pet, or are thinking about getting one, please let us know.

We want to support you in having pets where possible, however some of our properties are not suitable for animals.

It’s also important that our staff and contractors are aware of any pets before visiting your property.

If you’d like to have a pet, please email us at CrownProperty@LINZ.govt.nz

What counts as a pet?

  • Dogs
  • Cats
  • Livestock (chickens, cows, sheep, horse, pigs, goats) that are kept as pets

Keeping visitors safe

If you have a dog or livestock, we ask that you please keep them secure for any visits from our staff or contractors.  

Please tie dogs or livestock up or take them for a walk while the property is being visited.
