“Natalie took such great care of our pups. We had to extend our stay last minute and she was able to make to accommodate. She took care of our pups like they were her own and I could tell the pups loved being there! I highly recommend her!”
About: Hi! I’m a Registered Veterinary Technician (RVT) with 15 years of experience caring for pets, and I absolutely love what I do! 🐾 I understand how important it is to feel comfortable leaving your furry family members in someone else’s care. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. With my veterinary background, I’m experienced in caring for pets of all ages and personalities, including seniors, pets with medical needs, and those who may need a little extra patience and attention. I’m comfortable recognizing changes in behaviour or health and making sure your pet receives the attentive care they deserve. I’ll take the time to get to know your pet, follow their usual routine, and give them plenty of affection and companionship. Most importantly, I treat every pet as an individual and care for them as if they were my own. ❤️ With 15 years of veterinary experience and a genuine love for animals, you can enjoy your time away knowing your pet is in caring, experienced hands! I currently work part-time, which allows me to offer pet care outside of my regular work hours. I’m available for evening visits after work and throughout the entire weekend, making it easy to provide consistent and reliable care for your pets. I understand that every pet has their own routine, and I’m happy to work with you to accommodate their feeding, medications, playtime, walks, and other care needs whenever possible. With my flexible schedule and 15 years of experience as an RVT, I’m able to provide attentive, dependable care while giving you peace of mind knowing your pets are in experienced and caring hands. 🐾❤️ I offer flexible pet care both in my home and in your home, depending on what is most comfortable and appropriate for your pet. With 15 years of experience as an RVT, I’m especially comfortable caring for pets with medical or special care needs, including administering medications, monitoring health and behaviour, and following individualized care instructions. I understand that some pets need a little extra attention, patience, and consistency to feel their best. For dogs, I offer personalized walks and one-on-one attention based on their energy level, routine, and individual needs. For cats, I focus on calm, visits where they can receive dedicated attention, playtime, feeding, litter care, medication when needed, and plenty of affection, while always respecting their personality and boundaries. Whether your pet needs a simple check-in or more specialized care, my goal is to provide reliable, compassionate care that gives you peace of mind while you’re away. 🐾❤️ I also offer simple grooming care, including nail trims, for an additional fee. These services can be discussed and arranged based on your pet’s needs and comfort level.
“Mia was absolutely amazing! She took such wonderful care of our little Pomeranian and treated him like one of her own. She kept us updated every day with photos, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Our pup had a great time in her yard, made friends with her cat, and quickly felt comfortable in her home. Mia even went the extra mile by preparing yams to accommodate his diet, which we really appreciated. She was incredibly communicative, thoughtful, and easy to work with throughout the entire stay. We couldn't have asked for a better dog sitter and would highly recommend Mia to anyone looking for someone who will genuinely care for their pet.”
“Professional, knowledgeable, and quality care for our dog! This isn't your average dog boarding- Roberta provided a loving and safe environment for my large dog (90 lbs), in her home. She requested key info on my dog's feeding, health and behaviour, and provided updates and pics almost every day during our dog's boarding. So grateful our dog was not lonely and so well looked after!”
“Quinn was a great dogsitter. She communicated easily and often and assured me, especially in the first day or two, that my dog was doing great. I would not hesitate to hire Quinn again to take care of my dog.”
