Pet Sitting in Carleton Place

“Cassie has been sitting my two kitties for the past year when I go away, and she is amazing. She puts so much care into her visits, I always feel happy knowing they’re well taken care of. She’s also very communicative and flexible, there have been times I’ve needed her to come an extra day because of flight delays and she’s done her best to accommodate. Highly recommend 😁”

“Brittany did an amazing job taking care of our cat while we were gone for a whole week! I would not hesitate to book with her again anytime ?”

About: Transform your life with the power of pets! As someone who has overcome a difficult childhood through the comfort of furry friends, I am passionate about sharing the therapeutic benefits of animals. With a lifetime of experience caring for a diverse range of pets, from cats and dogs to exotic creatures like snakes and lizards, I promise to treat your beloved pets like my own. Whatever your fur babies need, we do our absolute best to accommodate to make their stay as enjoyable and comfortable as possible. I understand that some dogs have more energy than others, so we use a baby gate if needed to give everyone a breather so your little loved ones don't get stressed out. We have a high-energy husky that we trained (one of the harder breeds to train), and he is such a good boy. Everyone said potty training him would take 2-4 weeks, and we accomplished it in 7 days by taking him out every 2 hours even during the night. Alarms were set, and out he went. No more puppy pads or accidents in the house at 11 weeks old. If your fur baby is a puppy in need of extra walks for that reason, we are more than happy to help with that. We are able to section off a piece of our living room or kitchen to give senior dogs their own space if needed. Cuddle bugs are always welcome. They will get all the cuddles plus some extra 😊. We do have one set of stairs to our apartment, but if your senior dogs need assistance, I can carry them up and down the stairs; it's not a problem. As well as the administration of any meds they may need. We just need a medication schedule, and away we go. We have a huge park right behind our house for lots of playtime. If you have a high-energy pup I guarantee they will get the stimulation they need. And again, if you have senior dogs that are more laid back, we are set up to make sure everyone is in a comfortable, stress-free environment. We promise to provide the best care and daily updates of your fur babies. They will receive all the love and attention they get at home with you. You can rest assured they are happy and safe. As a pet parent myself, I understand the importance of finding a trustworthy and reliable pet sitter. That's why I've made it my full-time job to provide top-notch care for your pets, giving you peace of mind while you're away. One or both of us are home all day, so your pet will not be left alone for any period of time. In our home, they will have constant supervision. Please experience serenity with your furry friend complete with an inspiring dog and cat-friendly canine companion for ultimate comfort. Accommodation for all pets is our #1 priority, whether it be at your residence or ours. I always like to get down on the ground with your fur babies when I meet them, as this establishes trust. Establishing trust is very important to having a successful stay. We understand all pets have different needs; because there are 2 of us, we strive to provide a stress-free environment for your babies and ensure that your beloved pets will not be left alone for any amount of time.

“Jessica is absolutely fantastic! She arrived at the same time every day which allowed for a consistent schedule for our 5 cats. They all went to her with tails up and all her pictures showed super happy cats! The is the first time I’ve travelled for a business trip and didn’t worry at all about the cats or the house. Was completely stress free. I can’t say enough about how professional she is and how at ease our pets were. Absolutely would recommend her for anyone looking for a dedicated pet sitter with an amazing ability to remove all stress for both myself and our cats. :-)”

About: I’ve had pets my whole life, from playful pups to independent cats, so I know every personality is different—and I love them all. My own pets are spoiled (and yes, they know it), and I bring that same care, attention, and affection to every animal I watch. I make sure each visit is safe, fun, and tailored to your pet’s needs—whether that means a long walk, extra playtime, or just some cozy snuggles. I genuinely enjoy getting to know each pet’s quirks and creating a routine that makes them feel happy, comfortable, and loved. I work from home and have a flexible schedule to accommodate drop in visits, dog walking, and doggy (or kitty!) day care in your home or mine I prioritize your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness, and I’m flexible to meet their specific needs and routines. I have a spacious, open property for walks and playtime, and my energetic 65 lbs dog loves making new friends—perfect for playdates if your dog enjoys company.

“Victoria is amazing ! My cat is usually timid but Victoria found a way to make her feel comfortable. She sent me updates after each drop in visits which I really appreciated !”

About: Generally, I have grown up surrounded by different animals, including dogs. I used to take our family dog for walks around the block and outside with him a lot. I live with other family who have two medium sized dogs. I talked to them and give them hugs every day and they make me laugh. During the week, my availability varies with more availability on weekends where I am able to dedicate more time to spend with your fur babies. At home, I live with two dogs. They are not my dogs specifically but I will let them outside to let them run around and/or do their business and sometimes I will sit outside with them on the porch and just relax. I am also active in my daily life as I exercise at home and go for long walks everyday down the trail. I like to absorb the nature around me on my walks. It's also a good stress reliever. When I watched over dogs in the past for family members, I would take them for walks, feed them, let them outside, and spend time with them in the house.

About: I was the owner and operator of a dog walking and cat sitting business in Stittsville from 2017-2020. I have experience handling dogs of all sizes and personalities. I am a dog mom myself and have 2 border collies of my own at home. I look forward to meeting you! I was working in the corporate world the last few years but due to some changes am now looking into getting back into the pet care industry - I am currently available for dog walking and drop in visits Monday through Friday as well as some weekends! See my calendar for my current availability :) I offer drop in visits in your home for both dogs and cats but am always willing to follow any instructions you need to make both you and your pets comfortable.

“Jenna was our first successful foray into having someone come in house to walk, play with, and give our three dogs their mid-day break. They were so happy when we arrived home, and it was seamless and stress free working with her.”

About: I'm lucky to have grown up with dogs my entire life! From a big fluffy husky to a friendly and sweet lab to my adorable 6lb Pekingese/Yorkie, I truly love all breeds and sizes. I've been the primary dog sitter for several friends with their cat/dog. I have invested time taking the PetSmart classes but relate most of my knowledge and care of dogs to my childhood where I was responsible for feeding, bathing, playing, and walking our dog twice+ daily I work remote! I am available for runs throughout the morning, day and evening. During warm summer days, runs are reserved for mornings or evenings only. I promise to provide the upmost respect for your privacy and personal belongings when entering your home. I am absolutely dedicated to your dog's safety and happiness!

About: My name is Tamara and I would love the pleasure to look after your dog when you're in need! I've had my own small dog for 14 years now, as well as a 1 year old large dog, and a kitten; so I know all of the love and work that goes into taking care of our little friends. I also have experience caring for farm animals (goats, sheep, and chickens)! My house is within walking distance of a vet and pet supplies, as well as right next to a long trail that is behind my backyard that your dog is sure to love! Since I have a dog myself, your friend will be doing everything with mine, so even if I'm away for an hour or so, they won't ever be by themselves! I'm able to follow any routine that you need and I'll make sure that you're furry friend feels as at home as possible. I work full time as a teacher (8-3), so I'm home pretty early every day. My pets are home while I'm gone, so your furry friend will never be alone. I leave puzzles and enrichment toys for them while I'm gone, and I even have a pet camera so that I can check in on them too. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact me! I have a pet camera that you can tune into as well (while I'm gone), if that's something you'd be interested in. I will treat your furry friend just like I would my own; with love, care, and patience!

About: About Kaitlyn I always had dogs growing up. I was employed at a dog daycare & boarding facility for 3 years and love being around dogs and creating a safe space for them to grow and learn! I am currently working full time throughout the months of April-November. During lay off season with work I do have a part time job during the week but willing do walk after work. 5:30 pm-7:00pm :) I am a firm believer in real emotional connection with dogs, just like people. Affection and creative play are my favourite activities, and on walks l aspire to create a comfortable environment to exercise and do their business. I'm not a professional dog trainer, but know the basic knowledge and skills for a nice, easy, and enjoyable walk!

“Rebecca was very punctual and thorough. She was friendly and quick to respond to messages, and went above and beyond to ensure our pup was looked after.”

Gaelan J.

“Katie was excellent, she accommodated our older cats' need for several checkins each day, giving him his medication and helping him to get up and walk, and to take care of him when an accident happened. She also provided frequent updates and was quick to respond to us. We would highly recommend Katie to anyone.”

“Thank you for looking after Rosie yesterday. It was lovely meeting you. We will definitely reach out again when we need a pet sitter!”

Shes taken many different kinds of dogs on walks, given them baths, fed them to specific instructions and played with them till the sun went down! Kyle has owned pets his whole life, always having two dogs in the house as well as two cats and various types of reptiles or rodents throughout the household too, so specific instructions for pets is not uncommon for him.
