Cat Sitting in Golden

About: I've been around animals my entire life and have experience caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities. Growing up with pets taught me the importance of patience, consistency, and understanding each animal's unique needs. Whether it's feeding, walking, playtime, or simply providing companionship, I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and making sure they feel comfortable and cared for. What sets me apart from other sitters is that I truly enjoy being active. I'm very fit and love getting outside, so walks are never something I rush through or treat as a chore. Your dog will get the time, attention, and exercise they deserve, whether that's a leisurely stroll with lots of sniffing or a longer, more energetic walk. I understand that pets are family members, and I care for every animal as if they were my own, providing reliable, attentive, and loving care while you're away. I am a nursing student currently enjoying a Golden summer. This being said I have a fairly open and flexible schedule. I’m a big pet lover so this will always be top priority for me. I care for pets with love, respect, and genuine attention to their individual needs. I make an effort to truly connect with each animal, learn their personality, and help them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. Whether in my home or a client's home, I follow their established routines for feeding, exercise, playtime, and medication, while providing plenty of affection, companionship, and supervision. My goal is to make every pet feel secure, happy, and loved while their owner is away. I have a large fenced in yard with no other animals here in Golden.

“Outstanding! Dominique is an excellent communicator and did an amazing job with our kitties. The updates provided after visits were most reassuring, the pictures and feedback beyond expectations. She was more than happy to follow any and all directions for our kittie’s care. I did not hesitate to book Dominique again for a future pet sitting need.”

“Lisa was a wonderful help getting my dog exercised. My dog loved her walks with Lisa and was very excited to see her each day. Lisa provided pictures too which was great for my piece of mind . I definitely recommend Lisa.”

“Georgia was excellent looking after our two kittens. She was prompt in communicating and had a great manner. It was lovely to get photos and updates on the kittens whilst we were away. I would definitely recommend her and will use her services again!”

About: I have naturally by word-of-mouth become an animal sitter/house sitter in my sweet community of Golden, BC! It fills my heart with joy and I love meeting people & their beautiful pets! Cats, dogs, lizards, chickens! I am only working the weekend evenings during Spring/Summer 2026 as well as Monday & Tuesday mornings- so I have plenty of time for loving your animals, my partner will also be around. It is such a wonderful thing to be able to exercise and meet such loving animals all at once :) I am open to all sorts of care & instructions. I have worked with a variety of care requirements. It is all about what you are comfortable with.

About: We had a familydog as a kid. When I met my husband I also got to be part of his dog's life, we were lucky enough to have her until she was almost 17. I am working on training my first search dog. We brought home a 2nd dog in April, a puppy from Little Mittens Animal Rescue. We also have a very dog-tolerant cat from Little Mittens. I work full time, but seasonally. I'm looking to see how this works and how I enjoy it and am fitting it into my schedule on days off, for now. I have a fenced in yard and 2 dog runs set up so that my dogs are safe when I am not home. I have my vehicles set up with dog crates so tgat animals are contained and safe while travelling with me. I will talk to you and learn about your pet and their needs so that I can give your pet the beat care.

“I was traveling on vacation and had Chloe watch Ava for me during my stay at Whistler Village. I was concerned about Ava because she is an extremely shy dog, we’re in a new place, and we recently lost her companion dog buddy. I was very surprised to see Ava take to Chloe almost immediately. Ava in the past has sometimes sulked in her kennel or curled up in the corner and is not interactive. Chloe managed to take Ava out on walks several times and even sent some photos of them cuddling on the couch. I can’t say enough good things about Chloe. She was flexible and very attentive to our special needs. Absolutely five gold stars.”

About: I’ve had dogs for as long as I can remember. I’m passionate about everything dog related ; their behaviour, how they think and act, playing with them, walking them. I own a Border Collie, Gypsie and a Syberian Husky, Mango. I’ve been a dog sledding guide for the past 6 years. I’ve got two dogs of my own, hence why I’m the perfect fit to take great care of your furry friend and all of its needs! Experienced with all kinds of dogs, seniors, special need, high energy, couch potatoes. I can also work with other animals if needed ! I am also an avid wildlife photographer and can do animal portraits and action shots if desired, at a very fair price! Hope to see you soon! I will gladly take care of pets at mine or your residence! I have a very big yard so plenty of room for your furry friend to exercise and play!

About: I am a dog lover who also loves travel therefore don’t currently have one. Looking forward to meet yours! I am very active, affectionate and responsible. I have owned 2 dogs (Germand Sheperd and Golden Retriever/ Aussie Shep) , grew up looking after my family friend’s dogs and have lived with many other dogs. Happy to play, pet, feed, cuddle, walk, run and anything else that would make your furry friend happy! Funny fact; I sometimes go to the dog park just to hang out with dogs... I mostly have experience with medium/bigger sizes dogs but I have also lived with small dogs and cats. I am so excited to live in such a dog friendly place and can’t wait to meet more dogs :) I am currently off work therefore I will have plenty of time to spend with your dog and to go on adventures whether it be walking, running or the dog park I will follow whatever protocols you have in place in order to ensure your pet’s happiness and safety. Just let me know your preferences :)

About: I believe the best care starts with understanding your pet’s unique routine, personality, and training. That’s why I like to go on a few walks with you and your furry friend before sitting, so I can get a feel for how you connect. My goal is to keep things consistent and stress-free, while making sure your pet feels loved, safe, and understood. I prioritize quality time — whether that means long walks, play sessions, or just quiet company — so your pet gets not only reliable care, but also a trusted companion. Caring for animals is something I naturally build my days around. I enjoy starting and ending the day with walks, play, or quiet cuddle time, and I make sure feeding and care routines stay on schedule. Since I prioritize quality time, I set aside space in my day for enrichment — whether that’s a walk, interactive play, or just being present for companionship. My routine is flexible enough to adapt to your pet’s needs, so they get consistent attention without disruption to what they’re used to. I love caring for pets in their own home because it keeps them happy, relaxed, and surrounded by what’s familiar. Sticking to their routine makes everything feel normal while you’re away, and I’m there to give them extra love and attention. I also treat your home with the same care and respect I give your pets, leaving things just as you like them.

About: I grew up on a ranch and have been around animals my whole life. I absolutely adore all animals, but especially dogs and cats, and love to get in my cuddles and animal lovin’ in whenever I can! I have experience with all different types of animals, and will love, care and respect all pets as if they were my very own. I love all breeds of dogs, I do not discriminate against any particular breed, I just ask that if there is anything I should know about your pet, to know ahead of time so there are no surprises. I have 2 cats and a King German Shepherd puppy of my own :) Sirah, Tikka and Thor! I am a full time server, so my schedule does vary day to day- however I do know it about 2 weeks in advance and am able to work around it fairly easily. I have a huge fenced yard, which is great for playing and zoomies. In your home, I will accommodate to what you have to offer and what your fur baby is used to.

About: Lifelong pet owner and animal lover with years of experience as a pet sitter and dog walker. I grew up with cats and dogs my entire life and have learned how to take care and train kittens and puppies when I was child. I provide safe, and nurturing care for a wide range of animals. I am friendly and trustworthy, putting pets and their people at ease with reliable, conscientious care. I also have experience fostering with twin meadows animal rescue in fernie. I am currently unemployed as my winter season has finished at Islake Lake Lodge and at the ski hill. I have full-time availability to take care of your pet. Overnight stay, early mornings into the evenings.. I am available! :) I insure that they are comfortable with me right away, and build a trustworthy relationship. I am skilled at providing companionship and vigorous walks to pets. I also maintain a well organized daily schedule. I provide in-home pet sitting and pet care services, including workday check-ins and feedings, litterbox, cage, and kennel cleaning, overnight care, and long-term vacation care.

About: Having spent my whole life around dogs, from German Shepherds to Yorkshire Terriers, Working dogs to pets I feel I have a great understanding of how to interact with a vast variety of breeds, even the particularly headstrong ones! Working previously in an environment that required me to learn a lot about nutrition, training, general health and collar and harness fitting I feel I was able to develop skills in pet management and learn how to create and nurture bonds with new pet friends. Getting to know pet owners that were brand new to the life that having a dog allows right through to those that had been doing it for years and just wanted a little advice was also super beneficial in learning how to adapt different methods that would work for both owner and pet to create the happiest of environments. With regards to my own experience in pet care I have learnt how to administer medication for diabetes and other ailments whether that be through injectable’s or oral medication and am comfortable in ensuring this is done correctly and on time. Working late afternoon shift work, I have the majority of my mornings free along with a couple of set days and would love to spend this time engaging with different animals and providing a service for anyone who might need it! I am very comfortable around both small and large breeds of dog and am happy to follow instructions on how you would best like them to be cared for within your home whether that be specific restrictions around the home or set meal/ medication times.

About: I grew up with animals and have always loved having them around - I am an empathetic person who is very sensitive to animals needs. They bring great joy into our lives and I believe in return we owe them the best care possible. I work from home with a very flexible schedule, so I can work around your animals needs, give them as much exercise as needed, and be with them so they don't feel as stressed out being separated from you. I have an "adventure mobile" I am not afraid to get dirty and love taking dogs out for hikes and river adventures if they are up for that.
