Pet Sitting in Dalmeny

About: Ever since I was little I have always loved taking care of animals big and small. I’ve always had pets growing up and am happy to take care of a wide range of animals! For a few years now I have watched over acreages for friends and also house sat dogs when they needed it. I have taken care of old pets who require medication and also young puppy’s who may need a little more help and consistency. I went through multiple obedience classes with my own dogs and have done lots of agility training and weight pull training with my own dog Razor! For some dogs new people can be scary and I know that well too. Peaches my other pup can be very timid of new people so I am happy to help even if you are worried about your dog being shy. All of June I have an in person class so most days I will have to be on campus from 8:30am-3pm but from July to august I will have no classes and can spend as much time with your fur baby as needed:) At my home I have a large fenced yard and two friendly dogs as well as a dog savvy cat who will be happy to keep your pet company! I do have two crates, one smaller and one larger in case to crate if needed. In your home I am happy to follow whatever schedule your pet is adapted to!

“Availability is always ideal. Easy to communicate with. Never misses a check in and our dogs seem to really like her and happy when we get home from our travels. Thanks Jackie!”

“Charlotte is a complete and total gem. She dropped in to take care of my dogs (one that can be difficult) and would highly recommend her to anyone I know.”

About: Your Pup’s Home Away From Home! 🐾 ​We are a family of three who recently lost our beloved Shih Tzu. We miss the pitter-patter of paws in our home and would love to welcome your dog into our family for a stay! We treat every guest like one of our own, ensuring they feel safe, loved, and fully pampered. ​What We Offer: ​Active Lifestyle: We love long walks and have a fully fenced yard perfect for zoomies and sunbathing. ​Crate-Friendly Home: We are experienced with kennel training and prefer dogs who are comfortable in their "den." ​Cozy Environment: Whether it's playtime in the yard or cuddles on the couch, your dog will be part of our daily rhythm. ​Our Schedule: ​We are home most of the time, though from Tuesday to Thursday, we work during the day. For this reason, we are a great fit for dogs who can relax comfortably in their kennel for a few hours at a time. ​We can’t wait to meet your pup and provide them with a fun, secure, and loving environment while you’re away! We are home most of the time, though from Tuesday to Thursday, we work during the day. For this reason, we are a great fit for dogs who can relax comfortably in their kennel for a few hours at a time. ​Our Care Philosophy: Family First 🐾 ​Coming from a home that loved a Shih Tzu for many years, we know that every dog has a unique personality and specific needs. We don't just "watch" your dog; we welcome them into our daily lives as a temporary family member. ​Safety & Security ​Fully Fenced Yard: Your pup can enjoy the fresh air safely. We always supervise yard time to ensure everyone is playing nice and staying secure. ​Kennel Comfort: We are big believers in the "den" environment. If your dog is kennel trained, we maintain that routine to reduce anxiety and give them a safe space to rest while we are out or during bedtime. ​Leashed Adventures: Our morning and evening walks are always on-leash, exploring the neighborhood at a pace that suits your dog’s energy level. ​Personalized Attention ​Companionship: Since someone is usually home throughout the day, your dog won't be lonely. Whether we’re working nearby or relaxing in the living room, they’ll have human company. ​Consistency is Key: We stick to your feeding and medication schedule exactly as you do at home to keep their tummy and health on track. ​Fresh Water & Treats: We keep the bowls full of fresh water and (with your permission!) provide healthy treats for being "good boys and girls." ​Communication with You ​We know how hard it is to be away from your fur baby. We make sure to send: ​Daily Photo Updates: Action shots from our long walks or cute photos of them lounging in the yard. ​Quick Check-ins: A quick text to let you know they’ve eaten and are settling in well. ​Peace of Mind: You can enjoy your trip knowing we are treating your pup exactly how we’d want our own to be treated.

About: I am a part-time nurse that would love to spend my spare time meeting new furry friends! I had a family dog growing up who I loved very much. I also grew up with many farm cats and I’ve had my cat gus for 6 years now and love him so much! We adopted our dog Sasha from a rescue in 2025 and it was the best decision. I love all animals and would love to connect with yours! I’m currently working part time shift work, my schedule is open usually 4 days off a week to fit in walks or drop ins with your pet! I enjoy taking dogs for long walks around town. We have a fenced in backyard for lots of room to run around as well. .

About: Hello! I’m Kayla. Since I was a baby, I’ve loved animals. The older I get, my love for dogs seems to grow stronger. I am a certified dog trainer through Animal Behaviour College. I have 2 dogs of my own and I will definitely take care of and love any animal as if they were my own. I am currently a stay at home mom, but I used to be a dog walker, and I miss it so much! I have lots of availability, as I spend pretty much all of my time at home. My dogs are like my children, and I always put their safety and any animal’s safety first. I make sure I don’t take more than one dog at a time to ensure the dog I am with gets all of my attention. (Unless requested). I love socializing dogs in the right setting but think it’s important to spend one on one time with each dog.

About: I have had pets ever since I was about 6 years old. I have house sit many family friends pets from dogs to cats to any pet really. I love all animals and understand their needs. I follow instructions from owners very thoroughly as I know pets are like family to all of us and each of them have their unique schedule and likes and dislikes. I have cared for dogs and cats from when they were first born to seniors. Whatever your pet may need I will be sure to go above and beyond to ensure you and your pet are satisfied! I work part time so I am able to be quite flexible and can spend lots of time with your pets. I look forward to discussing how we can fit our schedules together!

About: I have had 6 years of dog care experience, caring for and walking friends and family members dogs. I have experience with both small and medium sized dogs. The long term care home I work at has dogs and cats and caring for the animals is pet of my daily responsibilities. I am currently a full time nursing student with classes 3 days a week. I love going for both morning and evening walks and I am looking for a friendly furry little companion! I also work at a server one night a week and have a casual job in health care. Open 3-4 days a week for walks! I have neither a closed on deck or a fenced yard so housing a dog at my place would be difficult. I am a young, fit adult who would be able to safely guide dogs on walks and can be trusted to keep them out of harmful environments and returned home unharmed.

“Mae was great! My kitties seemed happy with her drop ins. She is great with cats, both of my cats seemed to really like her.”

“Anthony was so great with our cat while we were away. The updates and photos made us very comfortable being away seeing how happy and content he was. Anthony is very professional and kind. Every need of our cat was taken care of and when we returned home, he was happy and content. I would highly recommend Anthony and we will definitely be happy to have him look after our cat anytime we are away.”

About: I have taken care of small and large animals of every kind! Anywhere from dogs, cats, and rabbits to large farm animals! I have plenty of experience as I am a lover of all animals. I have been relied on by many of my home community to walk, feed and look after their fur babies! I am currently working full time. I would love to help with any walking or house sitting on my days off, or any day of the week that fits both of our schedules! I currently do not offer services out of my own home. I would treat your space and your fur baby as my own! I believe that you leave the place cleaner than when you showed up. No messes here! With your animal or your house :)

“So great with Lou! She did all the things I asked (medication/feed every 12 hours) and even played and groomed her which makes Lou a happy kitty<3”

About: I worked barn maintenance and animal care at a farm, doing basic medical needs, feeding, cleaning, and even halter training. I am passionate about animal care and know basic training for pups and am very attentive to details in care for elderly, handicapped, or young pets. I work a very part time job (4 hour shifts, 3 or 4 times a week typically) and don't travel much so I am very often available for pet care. I will try my best to be available at any time for any pet My current home is not dog/cat friendly so I am only able to do home sitting care or dog walks. I will be timely with appointments and do my research (if they have medical or age related needs) and ask questions thoroughly about your pet beforehand. I will send photo and written updates as often as I can!

“Jade is reliable and caring! Our puppy is always well cared for when Jade is with her. She gives our puppy a break in the day by giving her exercise, play, and cuddles everyday!”

About: I have grown up with dogs in our household and the moment I became old enough I got my very own fur child whom now is the centre of my world. More like my routine is scheduled around them… it’s Charlie & Harvey’s world I’m just living in it! We go out for about a 5km walk along the river before I head to class in the morning, I come home at lunch to do the same walk then we head to the dog park after class and/or have furry friends over for play dates. I have a fenced yard with two dogs of my own, both of which love other dogs and love to snuggle and play. They are very much ok sharing their toys and sometimes may even push them in each others face to get the other to play with them!

About: With over a decade running my own dog training and pet care business, I bring a unique mix of experience, education, and heart to every pup I care for. I’m a certified professional trainer, pet first aid certified, and Fear Free Handling graduate, with a soft spot for seniors, rescues, and dogs who need a little extra understanding. From puppies learning the ropes to older dogs needing meds or mobility support, I adapt to each dog’s needs and personality. My care is calm, structured, and rooted in trust—because your dog deserves more than just a sitter. They deserve someone who gets them. With a new decade comes new opportunities. As I step away from the hustle and bustle of busy life, I’ve shifted gears back to what I truly love—caring for people and their beloved pets. I have a wide-open schedule as I build my clientele and earn your pet’s trust and friendship. I’m very organized when it comes to scheduling—I always strive to be on time and efficient, so your pet’s routine stays smooth and happy! I understand that inviting someone into your home to care for your pets is a big trust. I take great care to respect your space and routine, keeping everything tidy and as you left it. I learn your pet’s usual habits and environment so I can spot any changes in behavior or health and respond quickly. For me, caring for your pet means treating them like a beloved family member—giving them attention, respect, and comfort while you’re away. I’m committed to making both you and your pets feel safe, secure, and confident in my care.
