“Fiona was a great help to us when we went on vacation recently. She took excellent care of our 2 cats and sent us the cutest pics everyday. They clearly enjoyed their visits with her. She also helped with a couple things around the house we forgot to do before leaving. Great communicator and extremely helpful. Would recommend her and will be rebooting for our next trip without the cats.”


“Sara took care of Romeo for 2.5 days and he had an amazing time. Treated Romeo with a lot of care and respect. Romeo made new friends and was returned to me happy and well behaved. I greatly appreciate it!”


“Delaney is the absolute best with our pug! Mac adores her visits, and I always look forward to the adorable photo updates she sends. She’s thoughtful, reliable, and clearly loves what she does. Highly recommend Delaney to anyone looking for loving, dependable pet care!”

About: I have had pets and been around animals for as long as I can remember. I have been fortunate enough to work with a variety of species in a professional capacity, from zoos and wildlife rescues to training and handling for TV and commercials. I look at each pet as a unique animal with it's own needs and strive to provide what is best. I am a self employed pet sitter. I work my schedule around the needs of my clients. 12 hours a day. 7 days a week, I can be there for you and your fur baby. I learn your pet's schedule, routine and habits. I stick to what is outlined and provide safe and secure care in your home according to your instructions.

“A huge thank you to Amanda for her care and attention of our little ones during our time away. She cared for their food, medications, supplements, and extra needs twice each day. Amanda also very thankfully was able to add an extra day at late notice which was very relieving. We received pictures of them during her visit which was very reassuring. She is highly recommended.”


“Marilyn saved the day while we were away on our vacation - our kitty sitter was unable to make it and Marilyn stepped in as soon as I contacted her. She went above and beyond, leaving us to enjoy our vacation. I highly recommend Marilyn's reliable services! Thank you!!”

“Amanda is incredibly friendly and communicative, and her responses were quick and it was super easy to set up visits and discuss details - I would definitely book with her again! :)”


About: I am a registered nurse looking to take care of dogs and cats. My dog passed away Feb 11 of this year and I am really missing my baby and spending time with furry friends. I am not yet ready to get another dog so I am looking to love and care for others. I inherently have compassion for all dogs. I am working as a travel nurse, and completely flexible as I choose my own short term contracts. I am able to travel around the province and accommodate schedules. When I was working full time it was difficult to find help that accommodated a nurses schedule so I’d love to be able to do that for someone else. I have a very flexible schedule therefore I’m able to come to your house or take your baby out for a walk, I love being active and engaging with the pets I care for.

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.

About: I grew up with lots of dogs. I have two dogs at home and they are my fur babies. I love and take care of them, enriching them mentally and physically and showering them with love! I am currently unemployed. I am available anytime during the week for your pet care needs. From walking to playing, feeding to potty breaks and everything in-between. I have a fenced yard. I live in a town house with two dogs and two cats. I have access to car so I am able to travel to take care of your pet!

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.

About: Hi there 🤗 I would love to help out with keeping your pet happy and stress free while you are at work or away! I have a very friendly cat and dog of my own that do very well with other friendly calm pets, we would be so happy to have your furbaby join us on walks in the trails and the beach as we are very close to both and are there any chance we get! I am also happy to drop in for a quick walk and some pets/play if that is all you need. I have over 15 years personal and professional experience with cats and dogs of all breeds and sizes, We are looking forward to meeting you and your pet soon! I have recently moved back to Ontario from Vancouver after 15 years away, I had a very successful dog walking and boarding business there that i passed on to a friend so that i could move back home to be closer to family. We have a large fenced yard and are close to dt and the beaches, we love to be outside walking and exploring. Inside is cozy and clean and very pet friendly.

“Jordyn was amazing helping me out this week! I had a very last-minute need for a new sitter, messaged her out of the blue, and she got back to me right away so we could arrange things! She took great care of my two cats all week, stopping by each night and sending me pictures and updates during the visits. She made sure they were fed and happy, and was able to get my one cat to take his medication each night :) The app says that the stars I give her won't show up on this review, but it's definitely five stars! Thank you again!”
