House Sitting in Bell Acres

About: I’ve grown up with animals and valued them deeply since the beginning. I’ve had and been around dogs with a variety of behavioural issues and do well with them, I’m comfortable and capable of administering medications when needed and understand accidents happen! Your home will be accident free. I maintain a consistent Monday to Friday work schedule, which allows me to offer reliable and regular care for your beloved pets. This fixed routine ensures that I can provide a stable presence, minimizing disruption to your pet's daily life and giving you peace of mind knowing they are in dependable hands. I’m very passionate about the wellbeing and respect for all animals, I’ve been an animal person since I was very young and don’t even see that changing. I’ll treat your dog like my own and care and protect him or her from any and all dangers.

“Kerry took care of my 7 and half year old bulldog for 2 weeks in my home. To know she was at my home taking care of everything to even shovelling my walk from the snow we had and sending daily texts and pictures was truly invaluable. I was 100% at ease knowing my dog and my home were safe. My dog loves Kerry and went right to her room when we got home looking for her. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for making our vacation worry free.”

“I was super nervous to leave our dog with a dog sitter for the first time but Jennean was awesome and made us feel very comfortable that she was in good hands! She has a very trustworthy vibe. My dog can be reactive and high energy but Jennean had no problem with her. She also left the house really clean. Thank you so much, I hope you're available again for our next trip :)”

“Kirsten was great at communicating while watching are animals. She came over to meet the dogs a few days before watching them and they warmed right up to her along with our cats. Will definitely be using her again!!”

About: I’ve had the privilege of sharing my life with a wide variety of animals, each with their own unique needs, temperaments, and routines. From energetic puppies to aging pets needing mobility support or daily medication, I’ve learned to meet animals where they are and adapt to what makes them feel safe, understood, and cared for. Over the years, I’ve worked with many dog breeds—German Shepherds, Dobermans, Golden Retrievers, Australian Shepherds, Belgian Shepherds, Pugs, and more—each requiring a different approach to training, exercise, and affection. I’ve helped deliver and raise two litters of puppies, and I’m especially attentive to the subtleties of senior pet care, where patience and consistency make all the difference. What truly sets me apart is the depth and diversity of my hands on experience, combined with a calm, intuitive presence that helps animals feel at ease. I don’t just "watch" pets, I connect with them, learn their language, and build trust in a way that’s both respectful and responsive to their individual needs. Pet care fits naturally into my daily life. I’ve recently been a stay at home pet mom, so caring for animals is already a big part of my routine. I work casually at the hospital, which means I set my own schedule and have complete flexibility. I’m available pretty much 24/7, including last-minute bookings, I would just need to account for travel time. As my partner has been working from home more, I’ve found myself with extra time and energy to support others and their pets. Whether it’s daily walks, check-ins, or longer stays, I’m able to offer consistent, compassionate care whenever it's needed. Since I don’t board pets at my place, all of my care happens in your home or out on walks—and I take that responsibility seriously. I'll stick to your pet’s usual routine to keep things familiar and stress free, whether that means feeding, giving meds, playtime, or just hanging out for some company.

About: My experience with pet care involves my household animals as well as sitting I’ve done in the past. At my house right now, I own 3 indoor cats and 1 German shepherd dog! This leads to a very busy household with a very highly active dog and needy indoor cats. We love our house being busy with animals and have never had a home without animals. Before our German shepherd we owned a flat coated retriever which was a breed my fathers mother actually brought to Canada as our family used to show dogs and we briefly showed our flat coat in dog shows as well. Overall, I am just an animal lover and treat my pets like family. I currently work part-time as a server so my availability is super super flexible. I can easily switch shifts if needed to make it work with what you’re needing. In my home, my dog has a backyard where we love to play fetch, he also has a doggie pool so he can cool off when hot. My cats also have a cat tree and lots of toys. They also have dog/cat beds to have a safe space to sleep. There are also multiple water dishes around the house to keep them hydrated.

“Ryan was so good to Sade 😊he treated her like his own . She met a boyfriend that she got to play with the whole time . Ryan thanks again for making sure Sade had everything she needed.😊”

“Emma sent me pics and updates of all my fur babies, and returning home they were all content and happy. So happy to get away with no stress about leaving my animals.”

“Xana’s place is very pet friendly with a large fenced backyard. She was very communicative throughout the whole process and sent videos to ensure me that my dogs were having a good time. We did a meet and greet prior so my dogs were happy to show up!”

About: * Use this link for 20% off your first service: https://www.rover.com/sit/hollyd98614 * Hello Pet Parents! My name is Holly and I am a 26 year old working professional who has always adored animals. I have had dogs and cats my whole life, and also grew up on a farm with horses, rabbits, cows, and even a donkey at one point! I volunteered at a rescue farm and co-oped at a veterinary clinic in high school, and have experience giving different types of oral medication to both dogs and cats, trimming nails, and providing basic training. I currently live in a small apartment with my 2 cats and am always missing my parents' giant dogs back home in Ontario, so I'm hoping to fill my time caring for (and snuggling with) some furry friends to help cure my dog-sick heart! I am very active and enjoy going for walks and hikes in the area and would love to be able to bring a pet-in-need along! I am a hardworking, reliable individual and I really do believe that all pets are family and should be treated as such, with love and respect. Please consider me for any dog-walking or home visit needs :) Give your pets a cuddle for me! I work full-time but during the week I work from home and the hours are short and flexible. I do also work some longer shifts on weekends but those are scheduled far in advance, therefore I would likely not accept requests for days I know I will be gone 8-12 hours. I treat all pets as if they are my own - with love, compassion, and respect. I understand that every animal is different and has different needs, quirks, and tendencies and their care should be adjusted accordingly. Whenever I enter a client's home I make sure to respect their rules and belongings, and remember that I am coming into the pet's space and need to initially proceed with caution and earn their trust. Care should be fun but safe!

“Namrata was an absolute pleasure as a house sitter and caregiver for my baby Frenchie. She went above and beyond, walking him multiple times a day, playing with him, cuddling, and simply spending quality time together. Her genuine care and attention made me feel completely at ease while I was away. I’m so grateful to have found such an amazing sitter, and I will definitely be a repeat customer! Highly recommend her services.”

“Kendall took amazing care of our pets and home. It was the first time we had been away from them for this long and everything was great :) We came back to our happy and healthy kittens and pup and a clean home. She took our pup for a ton of walks and ensured our kitties had lots of attention too. Thanks again, Kendall.”

About: Hi there! My name is Bella and I am a first year university student working towards becoming a veterinarian. I have multiple years of experience working with both cats and dogs in work settings and owning multiple rescues in my personal life! Over that past two years and gained valuable skills leading to my capabilities of excelling in pet care from shadowing various veterinarians. I also work on a farm with horses through out my week and have owned horses the last 6 years. I have grown up with cats, dogs, horses and goats! I love going for walks, runs and hikes and challenging my fitness so if your pup is up for that count me in! I just finished training for the Vancouver Sun Run 10k for the BC children’s hospital so now I am looking for my next running challenge! feel free to book the hour or longer walk and I can turn that into a run for your pup full of walking, running and water breaks! I work and go to school through out the week, I have breaks in between both school and work through out the days and am able to go let your pups out, check in on your cats and dogs and go for a walk or two :) A day to day at work and home includes a schedule of what needs to be done in a day in order to keep pets and pet parents happy. By having a set list of what needs to be done and having direct instructions, it leaves both your pets in good hands, and peace of mind knowing what needs to be taken care of is being looked after with care. I hope to offer you great service and can’t wait to meet you and your furry friends:)

About: With over 20 years of experience, dogs have always been at the heart of my life. I love the happiness and laughter they bring. My dog Susan is a gentle therapy dog who comforts both people and pups. We welcome dogs of all sizes with open arms. It always makes me smile when the regulars arrive and run to my front door with their tails wagging, I know they’re happy to be here. It’s one of the best parts of what I do! ❤️🐶 I currently work from home, which means your pup gets all the love, attention, and playtime they deserve, all day long! With a flexible schedule, I’m here to make your dog feel safe, happy, and right at home. 🐕🐾 My home is a safe and welcoming space where your dog will be treated like they are part of the family🏡❤️. I provide regular updates, photos and videos so you can see how your fur baby is doing 🐾

“She is So Amazing! I would definitely hire her again! She was punctual and really tried to attend to my boys needs. She took cute pics of them with her watch in the pic so you knew she was keeping things right on schedule. She's caring and patient: leaving me feeling that I could relax while I was away.”
