Dog Sitting in East Lawrencetown

About: I am a member of LGBTQ+ and I absolutely love animals. I was raised with a golden retriever and a puppy mutt! I have experience training dog and dealing with puppy messes! I would love the opportunity to care for your animals. I will treat them with care and compassion, as if they are my own! A little about me: I currently work as an energy consultant. I just bought a house and in this economy I need a lil extra cash. I am interested in clean/renewable energy and making a positive impact on the environment! In my spare time I enjoy going on hikes, or walks around Point Pleasant Park and the Dingle. I enjoy the outdoors and nature very much and can't wait to bring your doggo along for the walks! I work a hybrid job. Some days I'm on site and some days I work from home. I mostly know my schedule ahead of time. I have a whole two level home with a back yard that has been dog/cat proofed. I would love to take care of your pets and listen to every instruction you give me.

About: Hi, I’m Zakia, an undergraduate student at Dalhousie University ! I’m a passionate animal lover based in Halifax, living in a cozy 2-bedroom apartment with my partner — who’s just as obsessed with animals as I am. Together, we love creating a safe, loving, and playful environment for any furry guest that comes through our door. I have experience caring for pets of all sizes and personalities — from gentle giants like Rottweilers to tiny, sassy Shih Tzus and energetic puppies. I understand that every pet is different, and I’m always happy to adjust to their unique needs, routines, and quirks. Whether your pet loves long walks, extra playtime, or just curling up for a cuddle, I’m here to make sure they feel comfortable, happy, and at home. What I Offer: • Cozy, pet-friendly 2-bedroom apartment for boarding or daycare • Experienced with all sizes & breeds: from large dogs to tiny pups • Patient, loving care for shy, anxious, or high-energy pets • Daily photo/video updates so you’re always in the loop • Long walks, playtime, or chill company — whatever your pet prefers • Two animal lovers = double the attention and snuggles! As my university is closed for the summer, I am 24/7 free to take care of your beloved pets. I can easily make a commute in Halifax. I have a safe environment and a big space in my apartment to take care of your pets . All my housemates are pet friendly and they also love pets.

About: I have taken care of dogs and cats my whole life. I own a shepherd/ducktoller mix and she is the light of my life. I love dogs and going on adventures with them. My dog had a huge surgery and I supported her recovery. Your dog will be loved by me like it would be by you! I grew up with cats as well and love them just as much! I work during the week days, however I always take the dogs on an adventure after work and on the weekends. I have the flexibility to stop home during the day. I have a large back yard for your dog to play in. It is not fenced but I have a long leash. I always watch the dogs when they are outside playing.

About: I’ve had dogs all my life growing up and most recently been a cat mom over the last 5 years, currently have one cat but used to have 3!! I work casually as a registered nurse and have a very inconsistent schedule of shifts and would love to help take of some adorable pets on my days off! Ensuring the safety of your pets in your home is crucial!! I will always make sure they are comfortable with me and will take great care of them.

About: I grew up around dogs, have always loved and cared for them. We would have at least 2-3 dogs in our house at a time, with a few cats as well! I work full-time but am available for drop-ins before and after work, overnight stays, and weekends dedicated entirely to your furry best friend. I can also house pets when needed. Having grown up around animals, I understand their needs and how to meet them. I’m attentive and caring, providing the safe, loving care your pet deserves.

About: I grew up with dogs, had some on my own later on and also did some pet sitting for 2 big dogs while traveling in Australia. My schedule is very flexible, working part time and also for myself. It is for me an uplifting and brightening activity to spend time with dogs. I am with them caring for them and, responding to their needs while being respectful of your space and your home. Perfect balance for you, your pet and I.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind since I was 10. Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed and bathe their pets Extremely flexible, and I have lots of time to love on your fur babies. Available morning, noon and night! Work from home and love being active. Pet friendly small condo; large yard and tons of trails around. Safe and clean environment, where your pet will be number one when in my care.

About: I trained my neighbors dog to wait at corners so she doesn’t constantly walk, she listens beautifully, I have a senior cat she’s the best I’m free anytime, I do start school in January. But until then I’m completely free, then it would barely change I have only 8 classes I have loads of toys, I have a fenced in yard I love to take my cats out for walks or just let them roam

About: I was raised with dogs - pugs (my parents spent some time breeding them), a Beagle, a Pointer, and finally a Lab. We also had a cat, and a rabbit! My parents had dogs for 35-40 years, and so I literally grew up taking care of dogs, including puppies while we were breeding them. After I left home, my parents would get me to dog-sit if they were going away. As an adult, I have had other types of animals as pets, such as hamsters, rats, and small lizards. I have gone several years without having pets. In order to still get my furbaby cuddles, I started pet-sitting several years ago. I have looked after larger, active dogs (Husky, Pitbull, Great Dane, Mastiff), as well as smaller dogs, cats, and even a bird. I have also regularly house-sat a non-pet house that the owners don't like leaving empty if they go away for more than a couple of nights. I have also fostered cats a couple of times for extended periods of time until they could find a furever home. I can stay in your home, or just do drop in service once a day to feed your cats or other pets, scoop litter, and water plants if needed. I can also stick around for an hour or two to offer ear scratches if appropriate :) I am now retired and can stay anywhere within 50km of the city, and can stay with them any day - morning, afternoon, or evenings and on weekends/holidays if you are closer and you are just looking for somebody to come in for an hour or 2, to take your dog for a walk or to check in on your cat. Furbabies are an important and much-loved part of your family, and I will treat them as such! I will follow whatever instructions you provide. If your dog likes to go for walks, I will take them for long walks either in your neighbourhood, or I will put them in my car and go to one of my favourite parks for an hour or two. I will not let them off leash unless they are in a fenced area. I am now retired, and will stay with your pets full time while you are away, except for when I need to go to the grocery store or I have an appointment. If you only require drop-in service, I can do that morning, afternoon, or evening. I do not care for pets in my own home. Pets are most comfortable in their own home, and so that is where I prefer to care for my clients' pets. I ask that you write down their regular schedule (feeding times and amounts, any medication schedule, etc) so that I can follow it as closely as possible.

My schedule is pretty flexible. I work night, day and afternoon shifts as a Youth Counsellor & complete school virtually. Feel free to connect with me for more details. I do not care for animals in my own home. But I am more than happy to care for animals in their environment which they are most comfortable. There’s nothing like home

“Samantha was incredible! She was very easy to communicate with, provided plenty of pictures and updates, and most importantly upon coming back I can tell just how well taken care of Cali was!!! It was so nice coming home to such a happy pet, would definitely recommend Samantha to anyone.”

About: I have years of experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages, including playful puppies and senior pets needing extra love. I’m reliable, friendly, and always make sure each pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for like family. I’m happy giving medication, going on long walks, or just offering companionship and cuddles. As a full-time online student with a part-time job, I have a flexible schedule and plenty of free time for pet care. I’m home often, which allows me to give pets consistent attention, timely meals, walks, and lots of affection throughout the day. Pet care fits easily into my routine, and I truly enjoy making it a meaningful part of my daily life. I create a calm, pet-friendly space with close supervision, consistent routines, and lots of love. I follow all instructions carefully, keep a clean and safe environment, and make sure pets feel secure and relaxed. Your pet's comfort and safety are always my top priority.

“This was our first time using Rover and to say we were nervous with trusting our kitty with somebody was an understatement. We met with Llana and she immediately put us as ease on how she interacted with our cat. She went above and beyond in the 3 visits and we only wish we met Llana sooner!! Thank you so much, we would highly recommend Llana!!”

About: Having had pets for my entire life, from hamsters, birds, cats and dogs - I've got lots of experience to help your pet - be it going out for a walk or snuggling up at home. I've got lots of experience walking bigger dogs as well as little pups. My energy meets your pet's, and I can be very energetic with a more active pet but can also be really calm with a more mello pet. I think animals are the best, and often prefer to spend time with them than people sometimes. I can guarantee that your pet will be given the best care possible and will be given lots of attention and love. Looking forward to getting to know you more, please reach out if you have any questions! I work from home as an engineer, and go on frequent walks to get in my daily steps so if needed, I could accommodate frequent walks but my flexible schedule also allows me to meet your pets needs at any time of the day. We ensure that our home is safe for pets by not keeping any house plants that could be harmful to pets, by working with the client to understand all of the needs for the pet whether its dietary, medical or anything else! I'm keen to ensure that the pet has attention throughout the day, and is the happiest and well cared for. If the owner likes, I'm happy to share pictures, videos and take video calls throughout the day.
