Cat Sitting Guelph

“Our cat is social but shy and doesn’t always take to strangers but she’s warmed up quite nicely to Kristen! Highly recommend her as your sitter if you’re looking for someone kind and reliable!”

About: I go beyond just feeding and walking. I’m genuinely passionate about giving each pet personalized care and love. Whether it’s gentle walks for senior dogs, high energy playtime for active pups, or patience and consistency with puppy training, I tailor my care to each pet’s unique needs. I have hands on experience with pets of all ages, and I’m great at spotting changes in behaviour that might signal something’s off. I treat every pet like they’re my own with respect, kindness, and a whole lot of belly rubs! I’m currently a student at the University of Guelph pursuing a degree in biomedical science. My classes are all online at the moment so I am able to schedule my classes around my personal life. I’m able to provide pet services any time. In your home, I keep your pet’s routine consistent—meals, walks, playtime, and cuddles just like you would. I make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable in their own space. I also keep things tidy and stay in touch with regular updates and photos. If I’m caring for pets in my home, they’ll get a cozy, stress-free environment with lots of attention, supervised play, and a calm space to relax. I always tailor my care based on your pet’s age, needs, and personality.

“Alexis did a wonderful job watching my little old lady! She made sure Sundae was happy, cuddled, fed, watered, and medicated perfectly. I couldn’t have asked for a better pet sitter. From the initial meet-and-greet to our return, communication was clear, warm, and reliable the whole time. Alexis followed all feeding & medication instructions precisely, left our home spotless, and provided regular updates & photos which gave us total peace of mind while away. Sundae warmed up to Alexis immediately and demanded many, many cuddles! When we got home Sundae was well-fed & watered, happy, relaxed, snoozing away, and the house was in great condition. I would gladly book with Alexis again in a heartbeat! Highly recommend!”

About: Hi! I’m Hayden, an animal lover with over 10 years of experience in dog walking, pet sitting, doggy daycare, and professional dog training. I recently worked alongside a dog trainer for the last year and a half, where I gained experience handling dogs with a variety of personalities, energy levels, and training needs. I’m comfortable working with dogs of all sizes/temperaments and love getting outside for walks, hikes, and adventures! I also understand how important it is for dogs to have structure, enrichment, and plenty of individual attention while their owners are away. Whether your dog needs an energetic walk, some playtime and cuddles, or simply a reliable person to keep them company, I’ll treat them like they’re my own. My goal is to make sure every dog in my care feels safe, happy, and comfortable! I’m a student with a flexible schedule and plenty of spare time to give your furry friend the attention and care they deserve! Whether your pet needs a quick check-in, a walk, some playtime, or just some company while you’re away, I’m happy to help. I love spending time with animals and would be excited to make sure your pet feels happy, comfortable, and well cared for! I believe every pet deserves individualized care based on their personality, routine, and needs. I make sure to follow their usual feeding, walking, exercise, and care routines as closely as possible to help them feel comfortable while their owner is away. I provide plenty of attention, playtime, enrichment, and affection while also respecting each pet’s boundaries and comfort level. I’m also happy to send regular updates and photos so you can feel confident that your furry friend is safe, happy, and well cared for!

“Erin and Chad were great! I had a last minute request and they were able to fulfill that. They gave lots of belly rubs and pictures of both animals. I would definitely use them again. Thanks!”

“Marlo provided excellent, highly responsive care for Cleo while we were away! Cleo was obviously enamoured of her, as well as happy and content when we got home. Great photos and communication!”

“Samantha was awesome! She asked great questions when she came for the meet and greet, making sure she got all the information that I forgot was important. Her visits were always right on time, and she sent detailed reports. She was super when one of my cats was sick, and definitely went above and beyond to make sure they were looked after. Highly recommend!”

About: What sets me apart is my experience working with dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities through rescue. I’ve cared for everything from energetic puppies to senior dogs and those needing extra patience or medical attention. I also trained puppies for Autism Dog Services, helping build strong foundations in obedience and confidence, and worked as a veterinary assistant for two years, giving me valuable knowledge of animal health, behavior, and recognizing when something isn’t quite right. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I currently work from home, so your animals needs will be met all day. I have a flexible schedule so even if you are crate training or socializing, I’m able to come and go as I please. My home is thoughtfully set up to meet the needs of dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities. As an active foster, I have a variety of tools and equipment to ensure every dog feels safe and comfortable, including a fenced yard, crates (when appropriate), x-pens, and separate areas throughout the home. If I have a foster dog during your pet’s stay, I can easily provide each dog with their own dedicated space to ensure an stress-free environment. I prioritize one-on-one attention, individualized care, positive reinforcement training, and safe socialization based on each dog’s comfort level and needs.

“Nancy just finished another few days looking after my ancient cat. Since I found Nancy, I have been able to get away on holidays and trips to visit with my out-of-town children and I have absolutely no concerns for my very high maintenance old girl. It’s such a huge relief! My cat no longer seems stressed when she sees me bring out the suitcase lol!”

About: I’ve always had a strong connection with dogs and a genuine love for caring for them. I’m comfortable with a range of temperaments and energy levels, from playful and energetic to calm and reserved. I pay close attention to behaviour, routines, and cues, making sure each dog feels safe, understood, and well cared for. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or simply keeping them company, I approach every dog with patience, responsibility, and care. Your dog’s comfort, safety, and happiness are always my priority. I work part-time with very flexible hours, which allows me to easily incorporate pet care into my daily and weekly routine. I have plenty of availability for walks, drop-ins, and extended visits, and I’m able to adapt my schedule to meet each pet’s specific needs. Whether it’s maintaining a consistent routine, accommodating last-minute requests, or spending extra time with your pet, I’m able to prioritize their care and ensure they receive reliable, attentive support. Safety and trust are always my top priorities when caring for pets, whether in my home or a client’s home. I take the time to understand each pet’s routine, preferences, and any specific needs so I can provide consistent, reliable care. In a client’s home, I respect their space and follow all instructions closely, maintaining feeding schedules, walk routines, and any house rules to ensure pets feel comfortable and secure in their familiar environment. I’m very attentive to behaviour and surroundings, making sure pets are safe at all times, whether that means secure leashing on walks, monitoring interactions, or keeping a calm and clean environment. I also provide regular updates so owners feel confident and at ease while they’re away. My goal is to create a stress-free, trustworthy experience where pets feel cared for and owners feel reassured.

About: The personalized care and genuine love we give to every dog we look after. We take the time to understand each dog’s personality, routine, and individual needs so they feel safe, comfortable, and happy while you’re away. Working in the animal medical industry gave us the knowledge needed We treat every pup like they’re our own—with plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, and, of course, lots of cuddles! We also believe communication is important, so keeping pet parents updated with photos and messages so they can relax knowing their furry family member is in good hands. For us, dog sitting isn’t just a job—it’s about building trust with both dogs and their people. We are organized, dependable, and able to plan the day around the needs of the dogs we care for. We enjoy having the flexibility to provide walks, playtime, meals, and plenty of attention while still maintaining a consistent routine. High fenced in yard Many parks and trails within walking distance Plenty of space in the home where special needs can be accommodated Experience with administrating meds and first aid care

About: I have the experience with both small dogs and large dogs. My own dog is a doodle, I got him 5 years ago when he was only 2 months old. I walk and train him everyday when I am at my parent’s place. I’ve also trained and walked my friend’s dog when she is away for a couple months. The dog is a golden doodle, and she was 4 years old at that time. I’m a dietitian student having my one year internship. I am working in a ltc every weekday from 9am-3pm. I love dogs and cats very much, so I want to get rid of tired from work by spending time with animals. I also want to have some exercise and stretching by walking dogs. I will drive to my client’s home and take care of their pets. I will play with them, feed them, and using treats to have some basic training with them (e.g., sit, up, paw, rollover). If I need to walk the dogs, I’ll walk them in the neighborhood, and take care of their poop

About: I grew up surrounded by animals! One of my earliest “jobs” was pet sitting for friends and family, whether walking dogs while they were at work or housesitting for dogs and cats alike. I create my own schedule which means my availability is quite flexible! I’ll have plenty of time to play with your pups or hang out with your kittens! I’m happy to provide home visits for play dates and walks, but open to bringing pets to my place as needed. I’m certified in Animal Care from the Uni, as well as CPR, First Aid etc, and I have an educational background in Biology with classes such as Animal Behavior.

About: I am currently accepting new visits/walks as follows: Monday to Friday, Saturday, Sunday and holidays - 11 am to 6 pm I have been provided with the opportunity to care for many different types of animals that all vary in sizes and personalities. I enjoy looking after all dog types and sizes as every dog is unique and should be cared for to the fullest and their needs met regardless of the breed, or size. While taking care of animals over the past 20 plus years, I have watched over neighbours', friends', family's, acquaintances' animals through going for walks, giving baths, feeding, hair brushing, teeth brushing, potty training, teaching basic commands as well as tricks, administering medication, going to the vet, and cleaning up their movements outside or inside. I have also had the opportunity to work at animal shelters and care for animals in need of some extra love and attention. I have grown up with exposure to loads of animals including and not limited to rabbits, cats, dogs, fish, hamsters, guinea pigs and frogs and am willing to look after them as well. I have plenty of time to visit, walk and play with your pets as I am working part-time remotely and the position is flexible regarding the hours I work which allows me the ability to come visit your pets as many times as required, spend lots of quality time with them and am not restricted to specific times. In my client's home I will listen to their preferences on how they would like their animals taken care of including crated or not crated, if they are allowed on the furniture or not, how much food to be fed and how often, any other needs required for their animals including brushing hair and teeth as well as bathing, I will take care of the animals as if they are my own while following the owner/client's wants and needs for the animals.

About: I’ve had cats or dogs for most of my life, and loved them all, for all of their lives.

Will consider hosting in my home on occasion as long as my female Aussie Shepherd is cool with it I am committed to learn and abide by your advice on what works best for your pet. That being said, I also rely upon my own practical intuition which has always served me well. 💕 I am knowledgeable of/& experienced with most breeds.

“Wonderful experience with Taylor! She took great care of our senior kitty (and my daughter’s hermit crab) while we were visiting family for two weeks. We’re pretty sure Charlie’s fluffy coat was softer and healthier upon return than when we left! It was such a relief to have Taylor with him. We had just moved house, which had been quite stressful for him. Taylor helped to make all the transitions smoother for him with lots of snuggles.”

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is the level of comfort, safety, and personalized attention I provide for every dog. I have experience with a wide range of breeds, from small companions to larger, high-energy dogs. I’m especially attentive with senior dogs and am comfortable administering medication when needed. My home also includes a large fully fenced backyard for safe outdoor time. Trust me to go above and beyond in keeping your pets happy, healthy, and entertained while you're away. I currently work part-time while doing online school from home, having a lot of free time on my hands. I am very flexible and can work around your schedule as well! From providing a cozy home environment to adhering to routines, I offer personalized pet care. Whether in my home or yours, I prioritize their comfort, exercise, feeding, medication, and specialized needs. Your pet's well-being is my top priority. In addition I have a large backyard, friendly roommates, and no other pets.

About: I've been surrounded by animals my entire life and caring for pets has always been something I genuinely enjoy, whether it's going for long walks, playing, or simply giving them the attention and affection they deserve. Family and friends have trusted me to care for their dogs and cats while they're away because they know I'm dependable, responsible, and compassionate. I'm currently studying Zoology, where I'm learning about a wide variety of animals and their behaviour, health, and welfare. My passion for animals is what inspired me to pursue this field, and I can't wait to spend my career caring for them. I understand that every pet has their own unique personality and routine, and I always strive to make them feel comfortable, safe, and loved. I treat every pet as if they were my own and take pride in providing reliable, attentive care that gives both pets and their owners peace of mind. My schedule is extremely open and flexible this summer. I’m currently a dancer teacher and in the summer will only be unavailable a few days each month. I’m also captain of my dance team which also only takes up approximately 4 days each month. Therefore i have love of time available to care for your pets :) When caring for pets in a client’s home, my top priorities are safety, trust, and creating a calm, comfortable environment. I follow each pet’s routine closely to help them feel secure and reduce stress while their owner is away. I make sure they are always supervised, properly fed, and have fresh water, clean spaces, and plenty of attention and enrichment. I also take care to respect the client’s home, keeping everything tidy and following any specific instructions carefully. My goal is to build trust with both pets and owners by providing reliable, responsible, and compassionate care that feels as familiar and safe as possible for the pet.
