Pet Sitting in Glace Bay

“I would give Katherine 10 stars if I could! She was amazing! Thanks to Katherine and her care of Ava, I did not worry one bit while I was away on vacation. She went above and beyond for me and Ava by even visiting when I couldn’t get home when scheduled due to bad weather. You can tell she loves animals and cares about her reputation as a pet sitter. Hands down the best experience I’ve had and I look forward to booking her again in the future. So wonderful to have someone you can trust. Thanks Kay!”

About: With years of experience running my own pet shop, I truly understand what pets need to feel happy and safe. I’m patient, caring, and love treating every furry friend like my own. You can trust me to give your pet reliable, loving care while you’re away. I have only a few classes each week, so I’m available during the daytime. I manage my time well, so your pet will always get the care and attention they deserve. When caring for pets at a client’s home, I will feed them, clean their food and water bowls, and make sure they stay healthy and comfortable. On walks, I pay close attention to their condition and behavior—not just walk them. I also make sure the home environment is safe for pets by checking doors, windows, and surroundings.

“Lauren was attentive and prompt with her service. She was on time, gave our cats lots of love, and took care of the things we asked of her to keep our cats happy. I would absolutely recommend her to other Rover users.”

About: I absolutely love dogs and my two golden retrievers are my whole world. Taking care of them has taught me how important patience, routine, and attention are, and I treat every dog I sit with the same way — like part of my family. I make sure they get plenty of walks, playtime, cuddles, and all the little extras that make them feel happy and loved. Every dog is different, and I enjoy learning their quirks and making sure they feel safe, cared for, and completely spoiled while I’m with them. I love dogs and my two golden retrievers are a huge part of my life, so caring for pups fits seamlessly into my day-to-day. I make sure they get walks, playtime, and cuddles without rushing — just like I do with my own dogs. I’m happy to work around schedules, provide consistent care, and make every dog feel comfortable, safe, and loved while I’m with them. Pets aren’t just a job for me; they’re part of my daily life, and I treat every furry friend with the same attention and care I give my own. My home is extremely dog friendly and my dogs are used to other dogs being in the home. We live on a quiet street and have a huge yard for them to run. We also live right next to a beautiful walking trail that I use daily.

About: I am educated in Animal Welfare and Companion Animal Behaviour from the Agricultural College. I have more than 300hrs of volunteer experience with various animal rescues, including cat/kitten fostering; kennel cleaning; dog socialization; dog walking. I have a soft spot for any senior animal needing medication and/or a little extra daily care. I've owned dogs, cats, rodents personally and provided pet-sitting services for friends and family for dogs, cats, rodents, ducks, livestock (cattle), and miniature horses. In regards to training, I believe the best tool is consistency and focus on balance/positive reinforcement. I'm currently building up my pet care business so I can be wherever you need me, whenever you need me! I'm just excited to meet your pets! I'm comfortable with many training tools (crates, martingales, harnesses...etc). To ensure consistency, I will ask detailed questions about commands, skills, and manners your pet currently knows and will follow your training program, unless I notice a matter of safety. I will then discuss the matter with you before proceeding in any way. During pet-sitting, any pet made messes will be cleaned promptly to maintain a happy, healthy home for your loved one.

“Jay was an excellent cat sitter for my two diabetic kitties! Having someone so friendly and competent really put my mind at ease. She even gave them toys and treats as a gift. Would highly recommend!”

“Niya did a great job taking care of our cats while we were away. She was on time, sent lots of pictures, and administered medication to one of our cats. We felt great knowing she was coming to see them. I’d recommend Niya to anyone looking for pet care.”

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 possible boarding as well! I walk my old guy every day :) I have a spacious 2 bedroom apartment with a nearby track and field for dogs to play and enjoy. Leashed walks around our little neighborhood!
