Dog Boarding in ColeRidge Estates

“Tara and Jason and their dog Stark were great looking after Wally. They sent lots of updates with pictures and videos. Wally got lots of walks, trips to the dog park and tummy rubs. Highly recommend them for pet sitting!”

“Ben was amazing! He is very kind and extremely responsive. He answered all my messages immediately. He sent me loads of pictures and videos during my dog's stay. In the past, with other sitters, my dog has come back anxious and not quite right. With Ben. she came back very relaxed and seemed to be her normal self. Without a doubt, I would recommend him to anyone.”

Maj-Britt M.

“Zenobia was wonderful to our Gus, from the pictures you could tell he was part of the family. We will definitely be bringing Gus back whenever we come to the city. The picture updates provided reassurance that he was being cared for and loved just like home. Thank you!”

Meaghan R.

I felt very comfortable leaving my dog with her, and she kept everything stress-free and easy. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter☺️”

About: I’ve loved animals from a young age and have hands-on experience caring for a variety of pets, including a puppy, several cats, and even fish both as a child and as an adult. This has helped me understand the different needs and behaviors of animals—from energetic dogs to independent cats and the consistency required for maintaining a healthy aquarium. What sets me apart is that I genuinely enjoy spending time with pets and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. I’m patient with puppies and can help reinforce basic routines, and I’m equally comfortable with cats, respecting their space while still giving them attention and care. My experience with fish has also made me detail-oriented when it comes to feeding schedules, cleanliness, and maintaining a stable environment—skills that carry over into all types of pet care. I’m reliable, attentive, and committed to following each pet’s routine closely. I also keep owners updated so they have peace of mind knowing their pets are in good hands. I treat every pet like family and focus on creating a stress-free, happy environment for them. Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine because I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and make it a priority in my schedule. I plan my day to ensure I have dedicated time for feeding, walks, playtime, and general care, so pets receive consistent attention and are never rushed. I’m comfortable incorporating morning and evening routines, as well as check-ins during the day if needed. Whether it’s taking dogs out for walks, spending time playing, or ensuring cats and other pets are fed and comfortable, I make sure their routine is followed closely. I treat pet care as an important and enjoyable part of my routine, not just an extra task. I provide a safe, calm, and pet-friendly environment in my home where pets can feel comfortable and well cared for. I make sure they have a dedicated space to rest, access to fresh water, and a consistent routine for feeding, playtime, and relaxation. I take time to understand each pet’s habits and preferences so I can follow their normal routine as closely as possible. For dogs, this includes regular walks, playtime, and attention. For cats, I ensure a quiet, comfortable space while also giving them interaction on their terms. I’m also experienced in caring for fish, maintaining feeding schedules and a clean, stable environment. Pets are always supervised, and I focus on creating a stress-free atmosphere where they feel safe and at ease. I keep the home clean and organized and provide updates to owners so they know their pets are happy and in good hands. Overall, I treat every pet like family and make sure they receive consistent care, attention, and comfort throughout their stay.

“Trish is the best sitter we've ever had! We boarded Krypto for 3 days which became 4 due to unforeseen circumstances and Trish was lovely about everything. She treated Krypto like family and is our goto now. We will definitely be back and we highly recommend her services”

“5 stars aren’t enough!! Emily and her family took such great care of brooks. I felt completely at ease and was worried he wouldn’t want to come home with us at pickup! Haha. Looking forward to his next stay over Christmas.”

Ashley V.

“Marissa was amazing with our anxious guy Gus. He was so well loved and taken care of. He got to go on nice walks and some fun adventures. We were very lucky to have such a wonderful caregiver for him. We will definitely be booking again. She went above and beyond with him.”

About: Lifelong dog lover and proud dog mom to my Australian Shepherd, Pepper 🐾 My home is calm, cozy, and very dog-friendly. I work from home, so your pup will get plenty of attention, supervision, and companionship throughout the day—no long hours alone. I’m experienced with daily routines, walks, playtime, and making sure each dog feels comfortable and cared for. I’m happy to care for puppies (with all the patience and consistency they need!) as well as senior dogs who may need a gentler, more relaxed approach. Whether your dog is energetic and playful or prefers to cuddle and relax, I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and right at home. I work from home most days, which allows me to give pets lots of attention and keep a consistent routine. I’m home Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, Friday, and weekends, so your pet will have plenty of company throughout the day. On Wednesdays, I’m in the office, but I’m located very close to home and can easily come back for check-ins, walks, and care as needed. Overall, I have a flexible schedule and can adapt to your pet’s routine to make sure they’re comfortable, well cared for, and never left alone for long. Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I live in a pet-friendly apartment on the main floor, which means quick and easy access to the outdoors for bathroom breaks and walks—no long waits or elevators needed. We’re also located near great off-leash parks and walking areas, perfect for getting in lots of exercise and fresh air (always based on your comfort level and your dog’s needs). Inside, my home is clean, calm, and set up to be a safe, cozy environment where your dog can relax and feel at home. I’m attentive, responsible, and always mindful of each dog’s routine, safety, and well-being.

“It was our first time using Rover. Meaghan and family were amazing dog sitters and welcomed our golden retriever into their home with open arms. Our girl loved hanging out with their dogs and cat, was taken on many walks, and rides for treats. She had a blast! Communication was excellent with photos throughout the boarding. Thank you, Meaghan! 🐕 ☺️”

“Ash and Abhi did care so much about Sugar. The pictures were amazing. We highly recommend them and we hope to leave Sugar with them other times in the future.”

Bruno M.

“We are so thankful for the outstanding care Gail provided for our two dogs. The photos she sent were very reassuring with our pups looking very happy and content. I would be willing to arrange all my travel plans in the future around Gail’s availability. Thank you Gail! 🩷”

“Kelly was terrific with my dog Hippo. He stayed overnight for several days and she took excellent care of him. She was an excellent communicator. She took him on walks and adventures, above and beyond. She even took my pet sitting request on short notice when my original Rover sitter cancelled last minute. Finding her was our lucky day! Highly recommend Kelly (and Patrick).”

Renee G.

“Vanessa and her family took loving care of our boy. He was well looked after. Vanessa was very easy to communicate with and was accommodating when our pick up time was modified. I wouldn’t hesitate to book again.”

Adrienne S.

“Beyond grateful for Claire & Jared. We were in Halifax from out of town and didn’t know anyone to watch our two girls for us to fly to a work convention. Last minute Claire was able to accommodate us — not only going above and beyond with the dogs, but also keeping them an extra night when our flights were delayed a day. She sent lots of updates, pictures and that helped ease our minds while away knowing they were being well taken care of and loved.”
