“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.”

About: Hi, I’m Kevin! I’m a lifelong animal lover and I understand that pets are truly part of the family. I recently lost my 7-year-old Swiss Mountain Dog, Karl, and it reminded me how special the bond between people and their dogs really is. Karl brought so much joy to our family, and I want to share that same care and compassion with the pets I look after. I’m reliable, responsible, and enjoy staying active outdoors. Whether it’s a walk, playtime, or keeping your pet company while you’re away, I’ll treat your dog like they are my own. I’d love the opportunity to give your furry family member the attention, exercise, and care they deserve. I work a consistent Sunday–Wednesday schedule, which gives me great availability on Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays for pet care. I’m also able to provide care around my work schedule when needed. I’m reliable, organized, and committed to making sure your pet receives the attention, exercise, and companionship they deserve. I have been around dogs of all sizes, breeds, and personalities my entire life, and I understand that every dog has their own unique needs and temperament. For walks, I’ll make sure your dog gets safe, enjoyable exercise, plenty of attention, and time to explore at their own pace. I’m comfortable handling energetic dogs, senior dogs, and dogs with different personalities, always making their safety and comfort my priority. For in-home visits, I’ll provide reliable care, companionship, feeding, bathroom breaks, playtime, and the attention your pet deserves while you’re away. I know how important it is to have someone you trust caring for your furry family member, and I’ll treat every pet as if they were my own.

“Erica was amazing with our two nervous pups, they warmed up to her very quickly! She was very communicative each visit, and took great photos of the dogs while she was here :) Thanks again, Erica!”

About: I've cared for cats, dogs, and fish for friends and neighbors for 10 years, including pets with allergies and specific diets. I have experience giving medication to dogs (pills and in ears). I might be busy with class either from 9 - 12 or 12 - 2:30 on weekdays, but I'm available at any time on weekends. I can follow any specific instructions given for each pet, such as food or medicine. I've had cats and dogs for most of my life, so I'm used to their general care.

“Just an overall amazing experience with prompt service and professionalism from Dibakar. I contacted Him while I was away and he was able to accommodate to my schedule to complete a few visits per week, sent photos, showed my cats some love and did a great job cleaning up! Highly recommend and will definitely have Dibakar as my go-to!”

About: As a passionate animal lover with extensive experience, I've had the pleasure of working with all types of dogs. My journey began with a year at a veterinary hospital, where I honed my skills while pursuing a vet tech career. This hands-on experience gave me invaluable insights into canine health and care. Beyond the clinic, I've worked on farms, which enriched my understanding of different breeds and their unique needs. Personally, I've had the joy of raising a Chow Chow, and I currently share my home with two adorable little ones—a Pomeranian and a Shih Tzu-Yorkie mix. Though I no longer work in the veterinary field, my passion for animals remains unwavering. With a blend of professional training and personal experience, I bring a compassionate and knowledgeable approach to both dog walking and pet sitting. Your furry family member will be in loving, capable hands with me! I offer flexible availability to accommodate your pet care needs. I am available Thursday through Monday, ensuring ample time to provide dedicated care for your furry friends. While I am in school on Tuesdays and Wednesdays, I can still manage check-ins on those days, with scheduling spaced out to fit around my classes. Whether you need dog walking or pet sitting, I am committed to providing reliable and loving care every day of the week. In your home, I prioritize your pet's comfort and well-being. I adhere closely to their routine and preferences, ensuring a seamless transition and minimizing any stress. From feeding and playtime to walks and cuddles, I provide personalized care tailored to your pet's needs. Rest assured, your furry family member will receive attentive and loving care in the familiar surroundings of your home.

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.

“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 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: I have 4 cats at home, and 1 even loves going outside for leashed walks or car rides and camping trips. I also work for a pet store, so I interact with dogs of all ages and breeds every day, including potential high stress situations. I work full time at a pet store, but on my days off I’d love to walk with your furry family member to get out some energy and give them some exercise. I work at a pet store, and do rigorous monthly safety training to make sure all of our furry friends and our humans stay safe.

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: As a lifelong dog lover, I helped raise my childhood dog from puppyhood through their senior years, giving me firsthand experience with dogs of all ages and energy levels. Since I work remotely, I've also had the pleasure of caring for dogs for family and friends, and I always enjoy having a four-legged coworker during the day. My flexible work-from-home schedule allows me to give your dog plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, and affection. I'll treat your pup like family and make sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for while you're away. I work remotely in a flexible role, which allows me to easily adapt to your dog's regular routine and needs. Whether your pup is used to scheduled walks, specific mealtimes, frequent potty breaks, or extra playtime, I'm able to provide consistent care and attention throughout the day. Because I'm home during working hours, your dog will have plenty of companionship, supervision, and opportunities for exercise, enrichment, and affection. My goal is to make their stay feel as comfortable and familiar as possible while you're away. I want every dog in my care to feel safe, comfortable, and right at home. I live on a quiet one-acre property in the countryside, which makes walks and outdoor time easy and enjoyable. I'm also within walking distance of a great local park that dogs love exploring. My home is a spacious bungalow, so there's plenty of room for your pup to relax, play, and make themselves comfortable. Since everything is accessible on the main floor, it's also a great setup for senior dogs or those who aren't fans of stairs. If your dog is crate-trained, I have lots of space to accommodate their crate as well. I know every dog has their own routine and personality, so I'll do my best to stick to what they're used to—whether that's specific mealtimes, regular walks, play sessions, or just lots of attention and cuddles. My goal is to make sure your dog feels happy, comfortable, and well cared for while you're away.

“Jessica is amazing with my two labradors! They really like her, and enjoy her coming by for drop in visits! She is flexible, reliable, attentive, and great with my dogs! I will definitely continue booking with Jessica”

About: My entire life has been richly blessed by the presence of dogs. For over 17 years, I have had the joy and responsibility of being a dedicated dog owner, and my experience is rooted in a home filled with a vibrant pack of nine dogs, each of a different breed and size, who taught me the beautiful diversity of the canine world. While my family back home cares for them, I currently have my own faithful companion by my side—a constant reminder of the profound bond between a person and their pet. This lifelong immersion has given me a deep-seated passion for canine care that extends beyond my own animals. I have frequently provided care for the pets of friends and family, treating each one with the same love and attention I would my own. What I cherish most is getting to know each dog as the unique individual they are. I understand that every "fur baby" has their own distinct personality, preferences, and quirks, and there is no one-size-fits-all approach to their care. I would be absolutely delighted to learn everything you are willing to share about your beloved companion—their favorite games, their daily routines, their little quirks, and any specific instructions you have. Please know that you can always feel comfortable letting me know precisely what to do and what to avoid; your guidance is my most valuable tool. It would be my genuine privilege and pleasure to provide your dog with a fun, safe, and nurturing experience, filled with engaging play and heartfelt companionship. I look forward to the opportunity to meet you and your wonderful dog. 🐾 My daily schedule is built around the needs of the pets in my care. I treat their routine with the same importance as any other essential daily commitment. The hands-on duties of pet care, like bathing, feeding, and play, are tasks I've always genuinely loved doing for my own dogs and my relatives' pets. I am truly excited to provide that same level of dedicated, hands-on love and attention to your furry baby! please do let me know of how you take care of your pet and I will maintain that for me and your dogs relationship on going.

“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!”

About: Hi! my name is Olivia, and I am an emergency & shelter veterinary professional providing attentive, knowledgeable, and compassionate care for your pets 🐾 I currently work in both emergency and shelter medicine, which means I’m experienced in recognizing urgent medical concerns, handling high-stress situations, and supporting animals who may be anxious or reactive. I’m also certified in pet CPR, so your pet’s safety is always my top priority. Through my shelter work, I’ve developed a strong understanding of the importance of daily exercise, structure, and mental enrichment—especially for high-energy or stressed animals. I always tailor my care to match each pet’s individual needs and personality. I’m comfortable with: • Oral and injectable medications (including insulin) • Senior, special-needs, and post-op care • Anxious or shy pets who need extra patience • Assisting with routine care like nail trims and ear cleanings I’m a recent graduate of both the Animal Care program at Durham College and the Veterinary Technician program at Georgian College, with hands-on placement experience in a variety of clinical and animal care settings. Working with animals has always been my passion, and I love being able to apply my skills while building trust with both pets and their owners 🤍 You can expect lots of updates, attention, and a calm, safe environment for your pet. I’d love to meet you and your furry family—feel free to reach out anytime! I own 2 dogs of my own, so the care for animals never stops outside of work! I am beyond excited to provide services outside of work whenever I can to help pet owners with busy schedules ensure their animals are being cared for. I have experience working with animals that are anxious or stressed meeting a new person. What I have learned is patience and understanding is the best way for an animal to gain your trust. I am willing to take time with each animal to learn their limits and comfort levels, and do whatever I can to make a fear-free, positive experience for them.

About: I currently have 3 furry babies at home; 2 dogs and 1 cat. They are my life and I do everything I can to take amazing care of them. I have trained my pups from the earliest age and they have grown up well behaved. I always make sure to use positive reinforcement when training, and lots of snuggles and kisses. I currently only work in the afternoons from 1:30pm-5pm, anytime before or after that I am free to walk your dog/dogs [or cat(s)!] or do a drop in to give your furry baby some love, potty time, and cuddles or play time! I will always make sure to take good care of your baby, by playing with them, giving them cuddles or even work on some training if that is what is wanted. I always make sure to follow the schedule or instructions that you leave me so that your pet is taken care of just like you were there. They are in great hands!

About: Over the years I’ve taken care of several dogs, including a pregnant female dog and her puppies. I have house trained puppies. I allow dogs to come to me in their own time and will give them all the love and companionship they desire. I work from 8am-12pm outside of the home. This gives me lots of time for drop ins and afternoon walks. To board a pet they must be used to some time alone each day. I would care for your precious pets as if they were my own. It’s been 6 years since my pug passed away and I’m not ready to get a new pet of my own however, I love hanging out with other people’s pets!

About: I’ve had my cat for 14 years, and have walked friends dogs consistently just as a kind gesture! Have watched over family and friends pets over the years. My fur baby doesn’t like other animals so this gives me the chance to spread the love to others! I’m currently working part-time- mostly in the evenings, with a lot of free time during the day! My schedule changes a lot but I don’t get many hours so I’m likely available for same day or a week in advance! My home is a safe space for my cat, who does not like other animals so i would give the same respect and care to pets in their own space with love and affection
