“We had to leave 15 year old fur baby for 3 weeks and we left him in Michelle's care. She followed all our notes that we had left and was proactive in letting us know how he was doing. Michelle took not only took care of our furbaby, but our plants and our home very well. Happy to have Michelle look after our guy anytime!”
“Highly recommend Andrea! We left our 14 year old Cockapoo for a week to attend a family wedding in Portugal. As this was the first time we had ever left her with a non-family member, we were apprehensive. We had three practice sessions before the week away. I felt confident leaving our dog in her care, in our home. While we were away Andrea sent us pictures and let us know how everything was going. She is very honest and seems to understand what a dog needs. If we have another opportunity to go away I will definitely call Andrea.”
“Vanessa was awesome! She took good care of our 4 months puppy and sent updates and photos regularly . Highly recommend and will definitely book her again”
About: At a younge age I had a puppy for about 5 years and I provided alot of care such as feeding, bathing, and walking to ensure pet happiness overall. I'm currently working part time and have plenty of free time during my off days to take care of many different adorable little kittens and cats. Making sure the pet has enough food and water provided everyday. Play with the pet. Providing lots of cuddles and love to ensure overall pet happiness.
About: Hey! I’ve grown up with dogs all my life and being new to this area and not having a companion around has gotten lonely. I’d love to look after your dog(s) to get my puppy fix that I’m missing not being able to have one of my own at the moment. I’ve looked after several dogs in my day as well as my own house pets. I’m active and love to take dogs on long (or short) walks depending on their needs. I’ve had shy dogs and high energy dogs and I can keep up with anything you throw my way!! I work from home during the day so I’m available for at home sitting during business hours but afterwards I’m free to work around schedules as needed. I’m free on weekends and always willing to give a helping hand to a dog lover. I have a fenced area in the backyard as well as an area to roam. I’m close to parks and trails and would love to go for walks with your dog(s). My apartment is on the ground floor so it’s not far to get outside when they have to do their business. My apartment is small but cozy and lots to do to keep your dog(s) occupied and multiple areas to nap if they’re feeling lazy.

“Kaitlin did a great job taking care of our cat, Ellie. She sent us photos every day, which kept us happy and informed. Everything was neat and tidy when we returned home, and we felt completely at ease knowing Ellie was in good hands.

“Alex was amazing with our dog Cooper, she knew how to deal with his boundless energy and his sometimes bad behaviour. We had peace of mind to knew our Cooper was in good hands with a well trained care giver.”
“Tanya is amazing! She loves animals and they love her. She sent me video and pictures everyday so I didn’t worry at all about my pets while I was away. I will certainly book with her every time I travel. I just hope she doesn’t book too quickly!”
“Mike was very accommodating. He not only exercised my girls but fed and played with them. What I did not expect is that he would leave my house and yard cleaner than when I arrived. He also kept a good communication stream up which helped as it was first time I had dog sitter come to me. I would highly highly recommend him.”
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.
