“Caitlin was everything we could hope for in a pet sitter. Our dogs warmed up to her right away. She was so conscientious and caring. We had no worries with our diabetic dog and her ability to administer his Vetsulin. We will definitely request her in the future.”


About: Hey there! My name is Kelsey, and I’m here to love your pets when you have to leave them. I’ve had pets my whole life, I have a 10 yr old German Shepherd who is the love of my life. I am a firm believer that once you take in an animal, you make them a promise to keep them safe, happy and healthy for the rest of their days. I take that commitment seriously, with my own animals and with yours. I’ll be back to school part time in the fall, between now and then I am happy to take on new bookings for walks and drop in visits. Staying alert and aware of my surroundings is a top priority when out with animals. After several years working with a reactive dog I have learned to deescalate and or avoid situations that could put the animals in my care, in any dangerous position. I do not allow other animals to come up to any animal in my care.

“I cannot say enough good things about Elena. One of our cats is skittish around strangers and even she warmed up to her immediately!! She took great care to ensure our kitties were getting some quality time while we were away. We will definitely be booking her in the future.”


“She is amazing! Very personable and sweet. She handles the pups with great care, follows directions to a T, and is fabulous with communication. Fully trust her with my animals. Thank you so much, Liz!”


About: My entire life has been filled with a Love for animals. I treat animals with the utmost respect and care. They are family. I'm am also well versed in Special needs caregiving, including harness walks, backpack walks, wheelchair use, giving medication and first aid care. I love hiking and trail walking to get those sniffers going! Enrichment and positive reinforcement are the foundation of my interaction with animals. I'm currently working full time, but my hours vary depending on the day. I have openings available, and I'm sure we can work out the details. My goal is to get moving! Going outside for some fun games in the yard, in the pool, or on a trail for environmental enrichment hikes is always a delight. I love to get those sniffers working and brains interested. I will always walk with proper equipment, including 6 foot leash, or long lead if allowed. If you have toys, games or favorite treats you would like me to use, I would love to help with keeping your pet happy. Working on training every day is an important part of caring for animals. Busy minds and bodies, make for tired & happy well rounded individuals. Safety is always at the forefront of any interaction and I am confident in my ability to observe a situation based on an animals body language and behavior.

About: Hello, Im 18 years old, and just recently graduated hugh school. I am looking for a fun way to make money before I leave for college! Ive grown up taking care of dogs, and been around dogs since I was born. Ive always had a love for animals, especially dogs. I enjoy taking them for walks and watching them whenever needed. I cannot watch the dogs at my house, because my own dog isn’t friendly to other dogs, but i would be willing to come to you and dog sit/watch your dog whenever I am available to do so! I work in the mornings, but I am willing to get up early to let the dog out, and after work I would love to walk dogs! I also love working out, so taking your dog for a walk/run will fit perfectly with my schedule. I have a dog of my own, and I love teaching her new tricks and just taking care of her. If your dog doesn’t know very many tricks I would be willing to teach them simple things like sit and shake. I am available to walk your dogs as well!

About: Hello, my name is Bailey & I’m highly experienced with animals. I’ve been watching and taking care of animals for about 10 years now! I’d say watching any animals needed is my passion. I absolutely love animals! I am currently offering walking, boarding, Day Care & Drop in Visits & open to any other requests you may be needing as well! I have my own transportation and I’m a non smoker. I’m willing to love your pet as if it was mine! Let me get to know your fur babies today! Pet care fits into my daily and weekly routine whenever it is needed. I currently have a work from home job so I am available 24/7. I am currently offering Walking, Boarding, Daycare & Drop in Visits. I care for pets in my home by making sure the pets are comfortable in the environment and by allowing them to make themselves at home. I care for pets in clients homes the way that they are used to being cared for. I ensure the pets are comfortable in their own environments and that they are being cared for just as if their families were to be home with them.

About: I’m a local dog groomer, part time. I have my own little hobby farm, where I have dogs, cats, birds, arctic foxes, horses, goats, pigs, and fish! I’ve fostered multiple orphaned animals as young as 24 hours old. I’ve cared for wild animal orphans until they could get to a rehab. I’ve cared for snakes, lizards, chinchillas, hedgehogs, ferrets, etc. I’ve bottle fed, given injections, and even have given IV fluids to my pets at vet direction. So, animal experience is putting it lightly! I house sit for friends and family frequently, and am looking to expand my services. My oldest pup is a super senior sheltie who needs a little extra love to stay comfortable. I also have a Pyrenees mix with severe storm anxiety that requires medication, so I’m familiar with what that entails. All of my dogs get a kibble diet paired with different supplements based on their individual needs, so I have no problem feeding more complicated diets as instructed. My foxes are primarily raw, and I’ve taken classes on pet nutrition. I’m currently training my red lab pup to be a cardiac alert service prospect, and have gone through maple creek training for obedience and socialization work. I’m constantly studying new techniques and ways to work with animals to keep them healthy and well rounded! I just dropped down to part time at my current job, and will be working remotely outside of then. So, my schedule is much more open than it used to be. It allows me to spend more time at home with pets, walking, feeding, and all other care. I DO have to be able to leave for a few hours a day to do some chores (grocery shop, doctors appointments, and animal care as needed). I’m comfortable walking or supervising your dog in a fenced yard, to potty. I can give medications and supplements as directed, to help keep your pet comfortable. If it’s a breed that requires brushing and maintaining while you’re gone? I’m comfortable doing it to prevent matting. Having so many different breeds dogs and cats of my own, under my belt, and having worked with so many others? I’m pretty comfortable with all pets. I’m working on receiving pet CPR classes, as well!

P.s I am a mama of 2 and trying to work with limited babysitting so I may need to bring my kiddos on walks and check ins but I can assure you that it will not affect my ability to care for your pets. I am a stay at home mom so I am looking for that job where I can work around nap and bedtime. So Rover being able to work around nap and bedtime and Dr's appointments all while it being right up everything I know I figured would be perfect! Depending on the job I will do what ever is required and asked of me to do! Although i dont offer stays in my home

About: I’ve owned dogs since age 13. I don’t currently have any ATM. But trying to get my doggy fix. Dogs are wonderful. I’m blessed to be able to have an opportunity to possibly love on your doggies. Due to physical reasons I’m not able ti walk to dogs but able ti let them out. I currently work full time but I’m fully remote. So my schedule is very flexible. I’m able to come to your home to watch your dogs. Due to physical limitations, I am unable to walk your dogs. But I have 15 years experience with dogs, and I absolutely love animals. I live in an apartment and I do not have a fenced in yard. Your dog and I would be more comfortable at your house. But if that’s not an option I will make exceptions for coming to my home.

About: I have two small dogs Sora and Kira. 11 years old and 12 years old who are friendly, loving , and spoiled girls. With a good balance of snackos and exercises to maintain proper body composition and not get too fat. Clean healthy water and food is so very important for your pets health and we go above and beyond to ensure the best for our pets and yours. I treat every animal as if it is our family member and make it as fun for them as possible. I currently own multiple businesses in Sarnia and have the luxury of working from home now, which gives me the opportunity to serve our community with more hours. I don’t have a traditional job and I can work remotely from my cell phone most of the time. We treat all animals with respect and courtesy, following the outline in which you lay out for care. I don’t smoke and being healthy is important for vitality and life for myself and all of our pets. We never want an animal to go without necessary care that they are accustomed to.

“Shannon was awesome! Took the time for an initial meet & greet a few days before and communicated each day how it went with Dexter. We will certainly have her take care of Dexter again.”
