About: I have owned and walked many dogs. I am able to control the dogs through walking (preventing them from jumping, waking right beside me, pulling etc) pets seem to love me and I create an immediate bond with them. I am available most of the time to look after your pet. If I am working with other animals I will schedule it in to fit your needs. I spend time with them and many pee breaks. Make sure there is water, toys and food when needed. A short walk if required upon visits.

“Jason went above and beyond to take good care of our home and 14 week old English Setter Puppy. Just after committing to a puppy, we had the opportunity to visit France with our daughter, and visit our granddaughter. We really wanted to go, but only if we could find someone super reliable to take great care of a puppy and continue the training we started. Jason came to meet us before we booked him and put our minds at rest. He sent us daily updates during our week in France so we were able to relax and enjoy a wonderful trip. Should you need a pet sitter, and Jason can do it, do not hesitate!”

About: Hey all you awesome fur parents! I’m Kelly and I’m the owner of 2 neutered, male sheepadoodles. Brady (10 yrs) & Finn (2 yrs). Finn and Brady are the perfect mix of personalities. Brady is extremely laid back and loves his naps, where as Finn on the other hand has endless energy. So whether your dog is in “quiet mode” or has no off switch, one of my dogs will be on their level. I run a small business from home which means I am almost always home! Constant affection and supervision for your fur baby. I do have a few walk/drop in clients which I do need to leave briefly for. I have a surplus of toys, and puzzles for the dogs to do and walks are always relaxing if you are ok with me taking your dog(s) on a neighbourhood adventure. I have experience with dogs, and have owned dogs most of my life, along with cats, guinea pigs, rabbits, fish, and hamsters. My passion for animals doesn’t stop there though. I also ride horses and occasionally volunteer my time at a farm where I help with chickens, peacocks, cats, a donkey, and the horses. I live in a townhouse with lots of floor space, and a small backyard. So there will be lots of running around and play time while staying with my boys and I. Both Brady and Finn are always ready to have some extra company. Hope to hear from you soon! I work from home, so I have ample time to care for your pet(s). With two dogs of my own I am already in a daily routine, so adding to our crew isn't too much of a change from our daily life. My big, friendly doggos will help make your pet's stay super comfortable. I'm willing to crate your pet if needed (and supplied with a crate!). I currently take my guys for pee breaks/walks 4-6 times a day but am willing to adjust to your needs as well. My goal is to help your dog be as comfortable as possible!

“Danika is always so professional and thoughtful. She always sends me pictures of my fur baby and is quick to respond if I have any concerns or questions! I highly recommend her.”

About: I have grown up with a number of medium breeds and large breed sport and working dogs. I rescued an abused presa canario which I raised from 2 years to 10 years. I am not shy with large intact males as I have lots of experience with reassurance, consistency, obedience and dominance as well as recent experience dog sitting and caring for long term two gun dog hound breeds which I love their drive and energy! I have the patience and tolerance for some of the attitude and energy levels of those breeds. They made me fall in love with bird and hunting breed dogs even more! I have had a few dogs as puppies so I do have experience with the basic obedience and training skills. I have experience with medications, injections and wound care for animals as well as 15 years as a registered nurse for caring for humans! I am practiced with nail trimming with large dogs with anxiety behaviours. I enjoy and am comfortable with puppies and senior dog care! My nursing background has made me unbothered by messes and sickness which is helpful in caring for puppies and senior doggies! I genuinely love dogs and most animals I find alot of joy in caring for others and animals 😊 I am currently on a leave from nursing and am looking to find joyful and some financial support through working with great hounds and pups I am a registered nurse with a live se in goodstanding, I have cared for people and pets with the utmost respect and love! I am looking to walk dogs mainly but am also available for drop ins and house pet sitting if it aligns with my life. I am very observant, caring and great at documenting anything that may look out of the normal and going well with your furry friends.

“I just can’t say enough amazing things about Jenna!! She took care of our two dogs so we could attend a wedding and I just couldn’t be happier with how everything went!! She was quick to respond to messages, asked great questions, came to meet my dogs, was super knowledgeable, very caring and literally the list could go on!! I felt 100% great about leaving my dogs with Jenna and she also left my house absolutely perfect!! Can’t say enough great things about Jenna. I will definately ask for her again!! 😁🐾🐾”

“Bailey sent us updates while we were away with pics of our fur babies. She took good care of our babies and our home which gave us piece of mind as we enjoyed our time away. We would definitely use her services again.”

“As a furry parent leaving my pet at home for the first time. I was already stressed due to having to fly across the country to take care of personal matters. Causing fleeting thoughts minor or major, coupled with the stress and nerves leading to forgetting to mention the living room camera for security of the home and safety moniterance of my cat. camera. Which is important to mention prior to the sitter doing their duties as it is part of house rules. Which was that for security reasons, I had living room camera. Which I set to animal motion notifications. Ad h can be seen upon entry, can easily be missed. But should have been communicated regardless. It wasn't until landing from my flight, seeing the notification. Not often ill check as previously they were not inky installed for security but for my cats safety. I got the notification for the animal motion sensors that I realised I forgot to mention them. Noting my error, others would have still felt uneasy about forgetting something rather crutial. And would no longer in home sit just drop in vists. and understand of the error mad eit known that as it should have been com in nicated prior to the start of the service. To no longer returns to pet sit for me. hope they would a and you'd hope they wouldn't abandon my pet all together. Rather Shelby be a reason and good person still stayed and carried out the services. is such a great person understanding the error Which often I dont worry to check, cause they'll show she's playing when by herself. Causing a bit of a fleeting thought, couple with the stress and nerves lead to forgetting to mention the camera. But knowing I'm not home, and she easily stressed to changes. Causing her to act out, like climbing places she not suppose to or breaking things. Especially when she is home alone. For example, one time I had family staying over. Having changes in the household lead to her breaking a cup that was on the kitchen counter left by a family member. When we went out gorciery shopping. Luckily we just got home and were able to clean it. If we had been longer the glass deposit all over the floor would have caused an emergency room vist. Knowing this, I had to make sure this wasn't the case. Though learning from previous mistakes, theirs still flower pots and center fruit bowls. Luckily it wasn't of the sort and they were trying to play. I thought messaging Shelby for tips to help comfort her with something mom does. Not out of back seat driving, know she cannot replicate me. It is when realised, I messaged Shelby of tops to help play productivity to build connect. It wasn't meant to back seat drive, as I thought playing like how she does with her mom will bring her a sense of comfort to ease her stress. I checked the to see the notification. Everything was fine, It was until then, the next day after I landed. I realised I forgot to mention the security camera in the living room. It is understandable Which though can be seen upopn entry, can easily be missed but should always be communicated to her. I As elthey are well within the right to. Which anxious, and nervous about leaving her alone with someone she doesn't know. She did leave me to forget to mention things until after, Though upon meeting Shelby prior to her pet sitting. She is very kinds, understand and ensured to take no of all specifics regulated to Pawdry. Even when she missed one or two things, when it can to feeding instruction she made sure to make up for it the second time around the feeding schedule.”

“Neeru took great care of Molly and Django. She noticed things about them that show us she was paying attention to their behaviour and interactions. They seemed very happy on the videos and photos and they were definitely relaxed and content when we arrived.”

About: Hi there! I’m Tam, a lifelong animal lover based in Stittsville. Whether it’s an energetic pup or a shy feline, I treat every pet as if they’re my own. I know how much trust it takes to leave your furry family member with someone new, and I’m here to give you total peace of mind. I currently work during the day Monday to Thursday so I have some spare time in the evening and Friday-Sundays. When I’m not walking my own pups I would love to lend a hand! I don’t currently offer care in my home but I will happily respect your wishes while caring for you pets in your home. The more details you give me the better!

“The huskies enjoyed having Olivia stay with them in their home while I explored northern Quebec. My hairy house was in good order when I came home. I would love to have Olivia back for my next trip 🐕🙂🐕”

Leave detailed instructions and everything else will be taken care of :) I look forward to falling in love with your fur baby!

“Breanna was excellent! We left her with quite a crew of pets on the day of our daughter’s wedding, and she handled it like the pro she is. We’ll definitely book her again; she’s friendly, great with dogs, arrived on time, and kept the gang of 3 dogs, two cats, and two guinea pigs fed, watered, and loved.”

About: I have 20+ years of experience taking care of dogs & cats. I would love to take care of your fur babies so you can enjoy some much needed time away! I’m working full time as a general manager for a hair salon - usually from 9-6 - but am available before and after for pet care! I have two cats of my own so unfortunately my house is not an option. I am happy to care for yours at your house!

“Jessica is next-level amazing! I almost selfishly didn’t write a review because I don’t want people to book her up but she deserves to be recognized for how exceptional she is. Jessica has an impressive background of working with dogs from working at a vet clinic to being a trainer and more, but the biggest piece for me and my Doods has been her educational background in dog behaviouralism. My AussieDoodle has recently become reactive to everything and everyone and my GoldenDoodle lacks confidence and having Jessica around to care for them allows me to fully relax while away. I’m no longer worried that someone else would not be equipped to handle some of the situations that would arise. She is also a natural talent with emotional intelligence and I could instantly see how aware she was of their emotions with just the slightest changes in their behaviour or body language. You can tell how much she cares for animals whilst being super realistic in their growth process and how that can be intertwined into our day to day lives. She is caring and kind to our Doods, but also knows how to behave around dogs who are outputting bad behaviours so as to not make them worse. One very basic example is not giving attention my Doods when they are barking and jump at her when she enters my house. Jessica watched my Doods in my home and spent some time training them and then shared some things that I could continue to help in my journey to reducing their stressors. She even shared some videos on my return so I could see their behaviours when I left them with her so I could finally understand the level of their separation anxiety and could take action to make it better. I feel so lucky to have found such a diamond in the ruff! Thank you Jessica for all of your support.”
