Pet Sitting Elginburg

“Ashton was wonderful. She used her initiative to decide how to walk, our not walk our senior dog and ensure our 1 year old was well walked each day. She was punctual and ensured we got timely updates and photos. We highly recommend her services.”

About: Animals have always been a big part of my life, and caring for them is something I genuinely enjoy. Through my Veterinary Assistant program at St. Lawrence College, I have gained hands-on experience working with both cats and dogs, learning how to safely handle and restrain them, understand their behaviours, and recognize their individual needs. My education has also given me a better understanding of animal health, proper care, and the importance of making animals feel safe and comfortable. Outside of school, I have experience raising and caring for my own two cats and dog, which has taught me so much about the patience, time, and attention that goes into being a pet owner. From keeping up with their daily routines and making sure they are happy and healthy to getting to know their different personalities and quirks, I truly enjoy being around animals. I am a patient, caring, and attentive person who loves getting to know each animal and making sure they feel comfortable, loved, and well cared for. I currently work part-time, which gives me quite a bit of flexibility with my schedule. I have lots of availability during the afternoons and on weekends, but I'm also more than happy to communicate and adjust scheduling needs whenever possible. I'm always willing to accommodate where/if I can! I would care for pets in a client's home just as I care for my own, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I have a large-breed dog of my own who lives with me in an apartment, so we're very used to staying active through daily walks, trips to the park, and finding ways to burn off energy. This has taught me how important regular exercise, patience, and keeping pets entertained can be. I'm also comfortable with crating when needed, and I understand that every pet has their own routines, preferences, and needs. I would always do my best to keep their routine consistent, give them lots of attention, and make sure they feel right at home!

“Kate was a wonderful friend to our dog! She was flexible with us as our timing needs shifted, sent pictures and notes, and even gave her an extra walk before heading out. Highly recommend!”

About: I have experience caring for pets with medical needs, and physical differences. I am comfortable providing oral medications by syringe or pills. Previously I have cared for pets who are deaf, blind, or have high levels of anxiety. I am willing to work with & understand their temperaments and personalities. My experience with caring for pets comes from owning my own pets, pet-sitting for friends, and assisting with pet care when I babysat for families. I’m currently working Part time & looking to supplement my work with pet care! I am available during the day for drops in or walks! I am available for short daily walks, longer weekly walks, playtime sessions with your active pup, etc. I am also happy to drop in to spend some quality time with your pet, give them some top up on water/food, and let them do their business!

About: I have had 5 dogs during my life and always either 2 or 3 at a time… It’s gone from big to small, with our german shepherds, Australian shepherds and our little mini schnauzer. I have watched them grow up and grow old, so i’m aware of challenges with senior dogs as well as puppies. I’m very active and love to go on walks! Most importantly I love dogs in general. I’m currently doing a full time masters program but have evening availability for your pup and occasionally free mornings/afternoons. Please reach out and we can figure out dates and times! My dogs aren’t currently living with me as I am at school, so your dog(s) will have lots of one on one time with me

“Fantastic as always! This is our second time using Ingrid - she is professional, easy to communicate with, and is always respectful of our home.”

Pet care fits into my daily routine as I go for walks everyday, and I'm on a regular routine with times I am available to let dogs out and feeding. I care for pets like they are my own! As a pet owner myself, I take caring for someone's pet very seriously. I will treat your pet as it was my own.

I believe every pet is unique, so I work closely with owners to ensure your furry friend gets the safe, loving care they deserve while you're away. I have a very flexible work schedule that allows me to move my shift around as needed to suit your pets needs. Your pets needs come first to ensure they are happy and healthy. I have 2 friendly cats but only one (Whiskey) will show face during your pets visit in my home. I have an unfenced yard with a tie out that gives your pet tons of space to roam the yard. My yard backs onto the woods and is away from the road. Your pet will always be monitored in my home and will never be left unattended. In your home, I will follow your guidance and continue your pets routine however that may look.

About: I have a dog at home everyday since i can remember up until I moved out for school. I was always on dog duty growing up and loved it! (Didn’t feel like a chore for me).

My schedule is very flexible and laid back as I work for around 3-4 hours a day and choose when those hours are.

If I’m ever in your house, I go above and beyond to ensure the house is in the same state it was when I arrived, and any extra requests you have for me get done during my stay.

It is my priority to ensure I follow all client preferences and maintain the routine that the pets have with their owners.

“Annabelle did a wonderful job with my dog Murphy and my sisters dogs. She is very knowledgeable and dependable. I felt much better about being away knowing Murph was so well cared for. Highly recommend!”

About: I have taken care of dogs since my family adopted our first miniature schnauzer when I was seven. Since then I have adopted two adult cats and have tried to spend as much of my free time as possible around animals of all kinds. I work full time, but am available for mornings, evenings, weekends and overnights. I work remotely two days for week and have some flexibility in my hours at my day job. My cats have been on special diets or medications at times and I am comfortable accommodating this. I can work with cats of any temperament, my own youngest was semi-feral when she joined my family. I am comfortable providing enrichment, crating and walking dogs of any size! I definitely have a soft spot for terriers!

About: Growing up I had the chance to raise and take part in the training of my own family pets as well as helping out with friends animals. I’ve had lots of experience house sitting for family friends for pets with all different needs:) I’ve participated in training classes, bathing, medication, walking and over night stays with no problems! If you would like references they are available as well :) I am currently working full time as a Recreation Therapist, in my spare time i would love the opportunity to help you and your family out! At home I have a puppy of my own, so I would prefer to over night stays and visits in clients homes however, she is very happy with all animals and very loving so if ever there was a need for a stay at my house it is fenced in and all “animal proofed“ already!

About: i grew up with both dogs of every size and cats! even lizards and fish, i’ve been taking care of family and friends pets since i was about 10. i’ve trained dogs from puppy to senior. full time mom to a little 4 year old girl who loves animals and grew up with a rottweiler and german shepard right by her side as well as two cats! i have full open weekends provided i can bring my daughter with me, im available 9-3 during the day while my daughter is in school as well as 3-8 once she is out of school on weekdays. i always have allergy friendly pup treats and toys available left over from my senior rotty has just passed. in my home it’s very “make yourself at home” meaning unless specified by the owner they are always welcome on furniture such as couches or beds to sleep. we have a large plot of land beside our building and lots of places for walks around my area.

About: I grew up with five dogs, so caring for animals has always been a big part of my life. I’ve worked with dogs of all sizes and personalities, including anxious pups who need extra patience and love. I’ve run my own dog walking business and have worked at two dog kennels (one of which I’m currently at) and I truly treat every animal like they’re my own. 🐾 I currently work part-time on weekends, which gives me plenty of availability during the week to focus on pet care. My schedule is flexible, so I can adjust visits and walks to fit your pet’s needs, and I always make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. When caring for pets in your home, I focus on keeping their routine consistent and comfortable. I carefully follow all instructions and give plenty of love and patience (especially to anxious or shy pets) while always respecting your home so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.

“My dog loved Sarah! She dropped in a couple times during the weekend to make sure Gaïa was alright while I was away. Thanks!”

“Kirsten was great, communication was fantastic and i felt very comfortable leaving my cat Amber who is diabetic and required insulin injections. I was extremely happy she is a vet technician so was very familiar with injections. I will definitely hire her again. Thanks Kiersten!”

About: Certainly! Here’s an extended version with a few more lines to make your answer more detailed and impressive: --- I have over 8 years of hands-on experience as a dedicated pet sitter, and I also care for two pets of my own — a playful dog and a senior cat — so I understand the daily needs, personalities, and quirks that make each pet unique. What sets me apart from other sitters is not just my experience, but my genuine love for animals and my ability to connect with them on a deeper level. I have worked with pets of all ages, sizes, and temperaments — from energetic puppies needing consistency and training, to older pets who require medication, mobility assistance, and extra TLC. I’m skilled in basic puppy training, crate training, leash manners, and socialization. I also have experience dealing with rescue animals and those with anxiety or behavioral issues, always using a gentle and reassuring approach. Pet safety is my top priority. I stay alert, follow detailed care instructions, and maintain regular communication with pet parents through updates and photos. I treat every animal as if they were my own — with love, patience, and respect. I work from Monday to Friday from 9 to 5.After that and before that I am available and I can sit with your pet at night Here’s a well-rounded answer to the **“Safety, trust & environment”** question, written from your perspective as an experienced cat sitter and pet sitter who may care for pets either in your own home or the client’s home: --- Whether I’m caring for pets in my own home or my client’s, safety and trust are always my top priorities. In a client’s home, I respect their space and follow all care instructions precisely — including feeding schedules, medication, exercise routines, and any household rules their pet is used to. I take the time to learn each pet’s preferences and behaviors so I can provide a familiar, low-stress environment while their family is away. In my own home, I maintain a clean, pet-friendly space that is free from hazards. I ensure secure windows and doors, use pet-safe cleaning products, and have separate, quiet areas available if a pet needs space or time to adjust. My own pets are well-socialized, and I carefully supervise all interactions to ensure everyone feels safe and comfortable. I also provide regular updates, photos, and videos to build trust with pet parents, showing them that their pet is in good hands. Whether in my home or theirs, I aim to create a calm, caring, and secure environment where pets feel loved, safe, and stress-free.
