Cat Sitting Bowmanville

“We are so grateful Abbey was able to take care of our cat while we were away! She was very easy to communicate with, and our often shy cat absolutely loved her. The updates we were provided were detailed and we were very reassured our pet was being very well taken care of. We would 100% recommend Abbey! Thanks so much.”

“Amber was absolutely amazing- she was quick to reply, kept us informed and let us know of any changes. She is someone we are grateful to entrust our pets care to and would highly recommend her! Thanks you Amber!!”

“Erinne was amazing! Knowing she was keeping an eye on our two cats made being far from home less stressful and the updates we received after each visit were great to see. Will definitely think of booking with her next time we need a sitter”

About: Hi there! I’m Carlie! 👋 I've been a pet owner my whole life, which has given me a genuine love for both dogs and cats. I’ve had the joy of training playful puppies and even fostering several at once, focusing on potty training and behavior. I particularly adore dachshunds and other small breeds—they truly have a special place in my heart. Cats are just as important to me, and I know how to give them the care they need. Whether it’s playtime, feeding, or just some quality snuggles, your feline companions will be in great hands. I’m also a nature lover, so I enjoy taking long walks in the afternoons and evenings, ensuring your pets get plenty of exercise and fresh air. You can trust that your pets’ happiness and well-being will always be my top priority! I’m a freelance commercial photographer and I make my own schedule which leaves lot of free time during my day to look after your fur babies! I use pet friendly candles + air fresheners and cleaning products. Providing enrichment toys for safe play time, as well as socializing with other dogs outdoors.

About: Hi Pet Owners; NOW ACCEPTING NEW CLIENTS I am an elementary school teacher by day and a dog walker/sitter by night. Dogs are and have always been my passion. For many years, I have provided daily care for pets while their owners were away, and took responsibility for routine duties (walks, putting out fresh water, cleaning litter boxes, etc.) while owners were at work. I understand that life gets hectic, so I like to support pet owners by vacuuming pet hair in the house, and bathing and grooming their fur babies. In the past, I have watched and walked anxious dogs. My philosophy is to use positive reinforcement to encourage dogs to display more acceptable behaviours, more frequently. I am fully available to attend to all of your animal's needs starting Friday night until Sunday, holidays and extended stays over the summer. Please check my availability as my summer is filling up. I live in a condo in Bowmanville. The building has a large courtyard where your dog can interact with other dogs if they like dog interactions. I also live close to several trails and safe roads with sidewalks. In my neighbourhood, there are many schools with large fields where I can take your dog to exert their energy.

“She is very sweet and prompt. The updates were very thorough. Our cat who is usually scared got accustomed to her very quickly and was at ease. Will definitely book again in the future!”

“Nicole always looks after our vets in a reliable and comforting way. We can count on her to make sure they are well taken care of when we’re away and treat them like her own. Thanks so much!”

“I booked Olivia for drop-in visits for my 2 cats, while I was on Vacation for a week. She is very friendly, trustworthy, and my cats loved her. It was my first time using Rover and Olivia walked me through everything I needed to do in the app. I highly recommend Olivia and will be a repeat customer for sure!”

“This was the second time we had Catherine take care of our cats. She's wonderful! She gave us regular updates and our kitties were very well cared for.”

About: Hi there! My name is Sam! I have been caring for cats and dogs professionally since 2019. I have always been an animal lover, from slimy and scaly to soft and fluffy. Every animal deserves tender love and care, especially while their family is away. It can be scary for pets when their family is away and I understand how a gentle, patient and calm approach can ease that discomfort for pet parents and their pet. Safety is my number 1 priority and I’m a big believer in loss prevention, meaning the pets I care for are always secured. Never off leash or in areas that could be a potential danger. I also understand that animals have mental and physical enrichment needs, I aim to stimulate their brains as well as get them moving physically. I have an almost 9 year old dog named Toby, he is a shih tzu mix. I have been caring for dogs and cats professionally since 2019 so Toby is happy to share his house and backyard with friends! I ask that your dog is dog friendly to ensure that both pups are happy during the stay. I also have a 9 year young cat, named Phoebe. She is comfortable with sharing her home with dogs that are happy to give her space. Even if your dog hasn’t been around a cat before I’m happy to do a trail and see how your pup responds, some dogs can be easily redirected and we can make it work! Some dogs have a higher prey drive so redirecting can be harder. A meet and greet prior to a stay will be important to ensure all parties are comfy! I do work a full time job. My days are typically opposite to my partner, so your pup will never be home alone long :) Safety is my number one priority with every animal I care for. I cannot imagine what I would do if I lost either of my pets. Our backyard is fully fenced and I check often for imperfections such as holes in or under the fence. Your dog will always be on leash while out and about, even if your pup has great recall I will never let them off leash unless in a secure area, such as a dog park or other fenced in area. We use long lines on hikes to provide the off leash experience.

About: If my animals could speak they would tell you they need alone time lol. They are never alone. Our house is a revolving door of our family coming and going. I am home every evening and weekend. Finding the "time" to add this to my life won't be difficult. I enjoy walking my own dogs every night so adding additional walks to my weeks is something I look forward too. My hours of availability for dog walking are : MONDAY TO THURSDAY: From Approximately 530 pm on. FRIDAYS: From approximately 130 pm on. SATURDAY and SUNDAY: All day All times are subject to change but would be happy to have a chat and confirm! ❤️ I have a fenced yard, a husband and 3 teenagers who love animals. I can crate your fur baby upon request, but otherwise I wouldn't. I love to walk and love going to the trails. I prefer not to go-to any dog park unfortunately.

About: I'm not as new to professional pet caring now, but I'm constantly learning and I have respect and love for animals. I have cared for pet dog and cat from puppy to old age and I am always learning from experts on how to handle most situations that will arise. I am able to be extremely active and engaging with animals to ensure they are properly stimulated and socialized. I take my job very seriously as a guardian of a pet myself I know that they are as much family as pet. I will always take special care to listen to a pet's guardian's advice on how to care for their pet so that they are properly taken care of as they deserve and expect to be treated. I’m currently self employed and mainly work at night when my dogs are asleep. During the day I am free to look after not only my dogs but also other people’s pets as well. When I’m not working I’m often taking care of my dog’s needs. I follow instructions from pet owners and ask about their pet to find out what kind of care they need. Every dog has its own personality and needs and I do the best to treat them as their owner would treat them so their stay is as comfortable as possible.

“Rachel was amazing, she was a rockstar right out of the gate taking our “last minute” check in on a long weekend! Communication was seamless and she came to check in/walk London at the agreed upon times. We came to home to a happy puppy.”

“Emma took care of our two short hair tabby cats as drop-in visits for 8 days. She was very patient with them and they became friendly with her fairly quickly. I would rebook her again.”

Manav J.

“Esten is such a great help! He was able to help us with our dog after she broke her leg and had an ulcer in her eye. He was able to administer her drops/meds all while playing with her and making sure she had water and went out. Great sitter!”

Stephanie R.

“Tricia is been so responsible and left on us very positive impact. She took care of our cat very well and she was punctual responsible and very caring. I will definitely use her services again and also recommend other to try.”

Kashif Q.

“Amy is wonderful. You can tell she’s a true animal lover and I think that adds a level of trust with you that she will be caring with your fur baby/s. She is super friendly and responsive and a bonus is a fun personality. I would definitely recommend her and use her in the future when needed. Thanks Amy! Never had a worry.”

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for over 15 years, including my own two pups with very different needs. I have hands-on experience supporting dogs through medical conditions, including helping my first dog through cancer treatment and post-surgery care. I’m also comfortable administering medications and following detailed care instructions from vets. I have extensive experience with senior dogs, providing the patience, support, and comfort they need. On the other end of the spectrum, my current dog is high-energy and requires a lot of mental and physical stimulation, so I’m well-versed in creating enriching activities and structured routines. Additionally, I have experience with reactive and fear-reactive dogs, including reactivity toward fast-moving objects, children, and other dogs. I understand how to approach these situations calmly and safely to keep everyone comfortable. I’m also familiar with certain e-collars and am open to discussing their use with pet parents if needed. My top priority is always to ensure that your pet feels safe, loved, and cared for while you’re away. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine! I work from home on Tuesdays and Thursdays, which gives me flexibility for drop-in visits and walks. On those days, I’m available early mornings (before 8 a.m.), during my lunch break (12–2 p.m.), and after 4 p.m. On Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays, I offer evening walks. Weekends vary depending on my schedule, but I keep my calendar up to date so you’ll always know when I’m available. I’m happy to accommodate different schedules whenever possible! Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. During drop-in visits, I follow your routine closely—whether that’s feeding, playing, giving medication, or providing potty breaks—so your pet feels secure and cared for in their own space. For walks, I always use secure leashes or harnesses, avoid unsafe areas, and keep a close eye on your dog’s behavior and energy. I’m also experienced with reactive dogs and know how to create calm, positive walking experiences. I treat your home and your pet with respect, as if they were my own.

About: I have 7 years of experience as a registered veterinary technician. I am comfortable caring for pets with special needs and medical requirements. I am also certified in pet CPR. I am currently working as an RVT at a clinic, but am available on Wednesdays and weekends. I have flexible lunch hours to do drop in visits as needed. I am certified in pet CPR. I have a crash tested pet crate if there is ever a need to transport your pet in my car.

About: Hi there, My name is Jena. I am a female 30 old who lives in Bowmanville. I work in the education system and enjoys her summers off. During the summer I love going for long walks to the beach or the forest and exploring. I figured why not bring along a dog with me :)! I grew up with big and small dogs and cats. I previously use to live in Pickering and used Rover while I was off in the summer and loved it! I figured I’d try it out in my new city and explore the area. In some of my photos you will see my family dog Teddy who is a German shepherd and Golden retriever mix as well as Pica who is the small dog mix with pug and unknown! These animals are not located with me, they are with my family. Pet care is easily fire into my schedule because I am off for the summer as I work in the school board. It provides me flexibility I make sure I read all instructions, care and expectations for the animal I am caring for. I will make sure the dog is safely walked, watched for and cared for. I ensure the spaces I am in are de cluttered and carefully watch for anything your pet may want to eat!
