About: My sister said that if she reincarnates she wants to come back as an animal in my care. I thanked her, promising she would be my favorite. I am comfortable and capable with large barnyard animals to the smallest of household pets. I have been an animal lover and caregiver for my entire life. Now that I am retired, I am thrilled to devote my time to being with animals. I enjoy caring for them in their own home. And I have a secure fenced backyard for doggy guests. I am able to stay with them for added security and attention. I've been a hobby farm owner, worked on a farm, have had the joy of loving many animals. Walks and chores and quiet times are aspects I really enjoy. I feel I have a connection with animals and have a calm spirit that soothes them when needed. I am retired. So my weekdays and weekends are available. I can housesit or just visit depending on the location. I have a completely and securely fenced backyard. So I can offer doggy guests safety and worry-free play time. Lots of shade or sunny spots, a small wading pool for water lovers and even a good spot to dig in the dirt. I have no pets of my own at this time. I am a non-smoker and dedicated to providing the best care for beloved pets. I have reliable transportation. I am very fit and love taking pets for walks , playing in backyards or resting and relaxing with senior pets. For doggy daycare clients, I offer a securely fenced back yard and worry-free indoor space. My attention is all for my guest when they are here. I am home full time and enjoy playtime with my guests. I am comfortable giving medications. I am capable of barnyard chores and large animal care.

About: From a young age I’ve always had a passion for animals and providing proper care. From dogs to hamsters and others in between. At my family home I’ve taken care of upwards of 9 pets. I’ve also babysat overnight my boyfriends two shih tzus. I’ve been a sitter on Rover in Wolfville for a year now, but I moved back to my hometown. I am currently working full time at Jollytails! I am free for dog walks in the evening & can do over night stays on the weekends. My shifts are quite long (10 hours) so it makes overnights more difficult during the week as I wouldn’t want to leave your fur baby for that long! Unfortunately I can not offer at home boarding as I live at home with 4 cats. I’m willing to come to your home to do overnight stays and I have a car as well to take your dog(s) for drives to parks/lakes.

“We had an amazing experience with Emily! She took careful and caring care of our high energy pup and did a exceptional job, she provided lots of communication and was very flexible the whole time we were away:))”

“Jasper took wonderful care of my cat Honeybun while I was away! They really went above and beyond to make sure he was happy and comfortable. Even going so far as to check in with me about Honeybun’s favorite toys and leaving the TV on for him when they realized he enjoys watching videos on it. I’d highly recommend Jasper as a pet sitter!!”

“Zoe did drop in visits with my two cats while I was gone and she was amazing. My cats loved her and she gave me great peace of mind. I will definitely be using her again next time I’m out of town.”

About: I've grown up surrounded by animals and various pets all my life. Unfortunately due to my job, I am unable to have one myself, but would love nothing more then to spend a day with your furry friend. I have cared for Dogs, cats, rabbits, hamsters, you name it! From high energy breeds bouncing off the wall to just wanting to chill at home I can match whatever your furball needs. I am available after 4 pm Monday to Friday and anytime on weekends. I am happy to accommodate your schedule as needed and be flexible. I go on various work trips that will be communicated through my calendar. I understand different pets have different needs. I am happy to accommodate to you as required such as feeding, enrichment, and grooming. Also happy to provide updates and photos throughout care.

About: What sets me apart is my attention to detail and commitment to following your pet's routine. I have two cats, one of whom has asthma and requires an inhaler twice a day, so I'm comfortable administering medication and keeping a close eye on pets' health and well-being. I also grew up with dogs and have experience caring for a variety of personalities and energy levels. As a CPA, I'm organized, dependable, and take responsibility seriously. You can trust that I'll follow your instructions carefully, show up when expected, and provide updates so you know your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for. Caring for animals is already part of my everyday life. I have two cats of my own, including one who requires daily medication, so feeding, monitoring health needs, and sticking to routines are things I do every day. Adding dog walks and drop-in visits to my week is something I genuinely enjoy. I love spending time with animals and understand how important it is for pets to have consistent, reliable care while their owners are away. When caring for pets in a client's home, I aim to keep their routine as consistent as possible. I'll follow all feeding, walking, medication, and care instructions carefully while making sure your pet feels comfortable and cared for in their familiar environment. During visits, I'll make sure pets have fresh food and water, clean up any messes, provide playtime and attention, and monitor their overall well-being. For dog walks, I'll tailor the pace and length of the walk to your dog's age, energy level, and needs. I'll also provide updates and photos so you can feel confident that your pet is happy and in good hands while you're away.

About: I have had dogs my whole life from puppies to seniors to rescues. I have experience with all different types of personalities and preferences. I take the time to get to know your fur babies to provide care as close to what you would provide to them as I can. I work downtown so I am able to drop in on my lunch to check in or walk. I am also availability for pet sitting. I will take the time to review all your pets needs and ask questions to ensure you feel comfortable trusting your pet with me as I know it can be hard to leave them with someone else.

About: I grew up with a lot of animals. I feel happy spending time with them and they are indispensable to me. and I love animals! Promo code KINAA83870 I'm finishing school so I can spend more time with pets. The job is part-time so it's very flexible and pet sitting fits into my lifestyle. We have a fenced yard where they can play outside in safety, and we have an old golden retriever who is very friendly and affectionate

About: My husband and I have had pets together for more than 20 years and our children have grown up with these animals their whole lives. We are trying to raise our teenagers to be responsible, hard-working men. With few job opportunities and busy school and extra-curricular activities, we thought why not help them turn their love for animals into a learning opportunity. Currently we have a 1.5 year old Siberian Husky (intact) and two 8-10 year old cats. All are up-to-date on vaccinations. We can offer dog-walking (with or without our dog tagging along), check-ins, house-sitting (your home or potentially our, depending on the pet). If you have special training needs or things to work on, we will do our best to accommodate. Our schedule is quite flexible. My husband and I work full-time (days), with some days being work-from-home. Our sons, aged 14.5 and almost 16. Are home during the daytime for the summer. We have a daughter (almost 4 years old); she loves animals and is respectful of them. We have a large fenced yard in a quiet neighborhood. Our house is 2 stores and animals can be separated into smaller areas if ever needed. Pets would not be left unattended at any time while at our house.

I provide dependable, attentive care in your home and focus on keeping each pet comfortable and well cared for. I pay close attention to behaviour, energy level, and day-to-day needs. I communicate clearly throughout the visit with photo updates.

About: I am a life long animal lover who currently has a dog, Olive, and a cat, Feta (can you tell my better half is Greek?!) I am available for drop ins and walks- with or without my pup Olive. Whatever is best for your dog. I love to go hiking and can take your dog on or off leash in lots of beautiful trails around HRM. If walks in your neighborhood or dog parks are better for your dog we can do that too! I am also available to drop in on your kitties! I can’t wait to meet you and your fur babies. I am currently on maternity leave and so I have lots of availability. If it’s a weekday I will bring along my 9 month old in her carrier. On evening and weekends I will come alone. I have used rover both as a dog walker and as a dog owner. I know how much trust it takes to leave your pets with someone else. I will take care of your pets as I would my own.

About: I'm Michael. I live in a one-bedroom basement suite. I have a well-behaved and-trained 11-years-old male border collie (neutered). He helped many puppies learn how to socialize. I sometimes dog sitting my friends' dogs. I also coach people how to communicate with their dogs instead of just simply "traditional training." I let my dog out often since he is a senior dog (I do not want him to hold urine too long). I walk him every day if the weather is permitted. Your dog MUST be vaccinated and has flea prevention treatment (documents are required to show me when we meet). Your dog also should be well-house trained and is being able to socialize with other dogs. I work from home most of the time. I only need to go to my office at SFU once per week on Tuesdays and I take my dog to my office as well. If your dog is okay being around people, I could do that too.

About: I’ve had family dogs my entire life! I currently have a one year old puppy, Romeo. He’s extremely friendly with other dogs and loves to play! Because of this, I’ll only be accepting friendly, playful medium or small sized dogs right now. I work Monday to Friday but I am available on weekends (Friday, Saturday, Sunday) to look after your dog while you are away/unavailable! I am happy to dedicate my weekend to helping out your dog (walks, feeding, playing) I have a fenced in yard that is great for dogs! Lots of room to run around and very safe! I will send lots of pics of all the fun your dog and Romeo get up to :) Romeo is more than happy to share his toys so there is lots of fun to be had!
