“Heather was super atencious and helped us during our trip, since we wanted to visit a place that doesn’t allowed dogs. So if you want to check the Louisbourg fortress, I highly recommend her! She send me photos of Lily, that was super happy with the stay, thank you Heather!”

About: Hi there my name is Amanda and my husband is Matthew we moved to cape breton island (Sydney area) in jan 2024. We are very passionate about our 4 fur babies and have always dreamed of starting a kenneling business. Our home is on 5 acres of property with 1 acre of it fenced and lots of walking trails in the non fenced area. We are starting with rober to guage interest in the area. When with us you can be assured that your fur baby will be treated like one of our own. Before taking an overnight friend we will need to do a meet and greet to ensure they get along with other dogs and are good with kids as we have a new baby as they will be included in our family plays. We are looking forward to welcoming your babies into our home. Our schedule will be flexible as I am on mat leave and if we get a lot of interest we would like to make it into a business. My husband works from home. We can discuss what works best for you at meet and greet. It's my dogs world I just live in it is my way of caring for my pets. Don't get me wrong they have rules but my job is to make their lives the best I can which is what led me to this idea ! My dogs have been going to day camp and on pack walks for years and the socialization really helps them to learn to interact with other dogs and humans.
About: I’ve been taking care of pets (mainly dogs) since I was 10. From my home dog to family’s dogs and neighbors. From walks to overnights - puppy’s to senior dogs. I work full time but am home various days a week. Always home Friday to Sunday for boarding! My partner is always around as well as he is fly in and fly out. I have a large three bedroom house with a large leashed back yard and front yard. A lot of room for pets to roam and enjoy!
About: Growing up with dogs has been an incredible joy, and I genuinely love caring for them. They bring immense happiness and fulfillment to my life! For the past 4 years, I’ve proudly volunteered with Eldor Dogs, helping seniors by walking and caring for their furry companions. It’s such a rewarding experience! I would love to do a pet sitting at YOUR home, but I can't do it at my home as the building doesn't allow pets. I work full-time from 8:30 AM to 4:30 PM, but I can be flexible outside those hours depending on the season! Occasionally, I even have some free time during the day to take care of your dogs. I’m genuinely excited to help you out! I can drive your dog to explore Cape Breton, taking them to all their favorite spots for walks and fun! Plus, I come fully prepared with a clean vulnerable sector check and criminal record check from my volunteering with Eldor Dog and my job with the children’s hospital.
About: I am trustworthy and reliable with a love for pets. We spoil our animals and always stop to say hi to pets we meet when out and about. We have a mature well behaved German shepherd/husky mix and a younger orange cat. Growing up with pets and having so many pets in our families have given us diverse understanding of pets and their behaviors. I have volunteered transporting shelter dogs in the past as well. I have some extra time these days and it would be rewarding and fun to help with other folks pets. I’m currently working on some projects for myself so I can make some free time when needed most of the time. Ask and we can hopefully work something out. We have a pet proof home as well as a yard that is surrounded by forest all the way around. Will use a leash always when outdoors.
About: My family has always had cats, dogs, guinea pigs and hamsters growing up. Friends and neighbour's have had snakes and ferrets that I've spent time with as well. I've worked with therapy animals to support children with various abilities and behaviors and just generally am an animal lover. I would love to have a big farm one day and have an animal sanctuary and just let all the pups and cats live their best lives. I have taught cats and dogs tricks over the years (yes cats!) And am very proud of the tricks they have learned :) I would love to be able to provide you with the peace of mind knowing that your animals are in good hands while you're away. I work from home during the weel and can potentially provide support at lunch time if you're in my area. I can take care of your animals on weekends and in the evenings during the week. I have a cat and dog who cohabitate, neither are allowed on the couch/bed and have their own spots to relax. If you are open to having your dog play with ours we would be happy to do so as Rocco is so gentle and loves to play with friends of all sizes
