Doggy Day Care Halifax

“Trish has watched my Pug/ Jack Russel “ Edgar “ many times now and I feel so lucky to have found such a wonderful trustworthy person to leave him with! Trish updates me throughout the day with photos and info about how the day is going. Edgar absolutely loves hanging out with her dog Stella to the point when it’s time for me to take Edgar home he whines pulling back towards Trish and Stella ! Couldn’t ask for better care. Thanks 😊💕”

“We had such a great experience with Divya! She was so sweet with Sophie and took such good care of her. I loved getting all the photos and updates, and Sophie got several walks and lots of attention. It made me feel so much better knowing she was happy and in good hands. I have already rebooked her to look after Sophie again! 🐾”

About: I’ve loved animals from a young age and have hands-on experience caring for a variety of pets, including a puppy, several cats, and even fish both as a child and as an adult. This has helped me understand the different needs and behaviors of animals—from energetic dogs to independent cats and the consistency required for maintaining a healthy aquarium. What sets me apart is that I genuinely enjoy spending time with pets and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. I’m patient with puppies and can help reinforce basic routines, and I’m equally comfortable with cats, respecting their space while still giving them attention and care. My experience with fish has also made me detail-oriented when it comes to feeding schedules, cleanliness, and maintaining a stable environment—skills that carry over into all types of pet care. I’m reliable, attentive, and committed to following each pet’s routine closely. I also keep owners updated so they have peace of mind knowing their pets are in good hands. I treat every pet like family and focus on creating a stress-free, happy environment for them. Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine because I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and make it a priority in my schedule. I plan my day to ensure I have dedicated time for feeding, walks, playtime, and general care, so pets receive consistent attention and are never rushed. I’m comfortable incorporating morning and evening routines, as well as check-ins during the day if needed. Whether it’s taking dogs out for walks, spending time playing, or ensuring cats and other pets are fed and comfortable, I make sure their routine is followed closely. I treat pet care as an important and enjoyable part of my routine, not just an extra task. I provide a safe, calm, and pet-friendly environment in my home where pets can feel comfortable and well cared for. I make sure they have a dedicated space to rest, access to fresh water, and a consistent routine for feeding, playtime, and relaxation. I take time to understand each pet’s habits and preferences so I can follow their normal routine as closely as possible. For dogs, this includes regular walks, playtime, and attention. For cats, I ensure a quiet, comfortable space while also giving them interaction on their terms. I’m also experienced in caring for fish, maintaining feeding schedules and a clean, stable environment. Pets are always supervised, and I focus on creating a stress-free atmosphere where they feel safe and at ease. I keep the home clean and organized and provide updates to owners so they know their pets are happy and in good hands. Overall, I treat every pet like family and make sure they receive consistent care, attention, and comfort throughout their stay.

“Christine was great! With her experience, I felt very comfortable leaving our nervous, reactive dog with her. She was very responsive and gave us lots of updates through the day.”

About: Hi! I’m Lauren, and I’ve been surrounded by animals for as long as I can remember. I grew up with both dogs and cats, so caring for pets has always been second nature to me. In addition to caring for my own pets, I have worked on a farm for many years where I spent my days around dogs, horses, and plenty of barn cats. Being around animals every day has taught me to read their body language, understand their unique personalities, and provide patient, attentive care. Whether your animal loves long walks, energetic playtime, or simply wants someone to keep them company, I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. I know every dog is different, and I’m happy to follow your routine to keep them comfortable and happy. I treat every dog like they’re my own, and I can’t wait to meet your best friend! Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine! I work remotely four days a week in a flexible role, which allows me to provide frequent potty breaks, walks, playtime, and plenty of companionship throughout the day. My schedule isn’t tied to a strict 9 to 5, so I’m able to adapt to your pet’s routine and individual needs. I live in a spacious apartment with plenty of room for your pet to relax and feel at home. Daily walks are already part of my routine, and I love getting outside for fresh air and exercise. When caring for your pet, I prioritize giving each animal the attention, affection, and consistency they deserve. Whether your pet enjoys an active day of adventures or a quiet afternoon of cuddles and naps, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. You’ll also receive regular photo updates, so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy and well cared for. I live in a quiet, pet friendly neighbourhood in a spacious apartment that provides a calm and comfortable environment for pets. My building is peaceful with minimal noise, making it a great place for dogs and cats to relax and feel at ease. There’s plenty of room to stretch out, play, and settle in, so your pet can enjoy a safe, stress free stay while you’re away.

About: I have plenty of hands-on experience caring for dogs through my own 5 year old Cavapoo, as well as regularly watching friends’ dogs. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes, personalities, and energy levels, and I love giving them plenty of attention, playtime, walks, and cuddles! I work from home, so I have a very flexible schedule and am around throughout the day to give dogs plenty of attention and care. I’m able to provide regular walks, playtime, bathroom breaks, and lots of company, making sure they feel comfortable and loved while you’re away. I live in a dog-friendly apartment close to several great parks and walking spots. With a little dog of my own, I know all the best places nearby for walks, playtime, and getting some fresh air. Your pup will have a comfortable, dog-friendly home base with plenty of opportunities to get outside and explore!

About: I have years of experience caring for dogs of all ages; growing up around dogs means I have taken care of puppies, seniors, and everything in between. I’m comfortable with everything that comes with keeping a dog happy, safe, and well cared for. I don’t currently have a dog of my own, so I’d love give yours plenty of attention and company while you’re away! I’m a university student currently taking online courses, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to spend with your pet. I’m able to be around throughout the day to give them lots of attention, company, and care! I have plenty of space for your pet in my apartment, as well as a small backyard that’s convenient for quick bathroom breaks. I also live close to several parks and green spaces, so there are plenty of options for walks and outdoor time. I have a crate available if your dog is crate-trained, and I’m completely comfortable cleaning up any accidents or messes that may happen.

“Ben was great! He genuinely seemed to like our Mini Schnauzer, Jackson Pancho. He sent us lots of pics of Jack’s time with him. We meant to bring treats for Jack, but forgot. He fed him a little after checking with us about allergies and such, which we really appreciated. Jack seemed to have had plenty of exercise and play time. Ben was flexible about drop off and pick up-great because we are in an unfamiliar city visiting. I wish we had Ben in Minnesota, where we could use his skills more often!”

About: I have always loved animals since I was a child! I worked as a volunteer dog care attendant with the SPCA for 9 years, and am certified in pet first aid. I also have a background in dog training and have dabbled in various dog sports over the years. Currently I share my home with my pit bull Atlas who LOVES all other dog friends, and my senior cat Kallie. I work from home so I'm able to be with your pet 24/7 during their stay with me! This way they don't need to be alone while you're away. I have a fully fenced yard and a very social pitbull who loves to make new friends and play. I can also offer daily walks while your pup is in my care if desired!

About: My wife and I have been lucky enough to have dogs as part of our families since we were little, and we couldn’t imagine life without them! What started as pet-sitting for friends gradually grew through word-of-mouth and referrals from happy pet owners. We love getting to know each dog’s unique personality and paying attention to the little details that help them feel safe, comfortable, and loved in their own home. We also make sure to keep you updated, so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. We genuinely love what we do and hope to continue caring for as many wonderful dogs as we can! Over time, we’ve had the pleasure of looking after a wide variety of breeds, including Schnauzers, Cocker Spaniels, Yorkies, Old English Sheepdogs, Labradoodles, Australian Shepherds, Poodles, Bernese Mountain Dogs, Huskies, Dalmatians, Chow Chows, Chihuahuas, Shih Tzus, West Highland White Terriers, Golden Retrievers, Pugs, and many more. And our list keeps growing! Every dog is different, and we love making each one feel like part of our family. I have a pretty flexible job at the moment so I can always find spaces to provide the best care and quality and count on my wife's support for anything necessary. I adhere to your dog's schedule as much as possible and provide lots of pets, playtime and attention, and medicine if needed. I constantly send you pictures, videos and updates to keep you always notified about your best friend's wellbeing.

“Chelsea was available last minute, and was great with Sadie! Sadie returned home happy. I definitely recommend Chelsea- good communication. Thanks Chelsea!”

“Thorburn settled in nicely with Roselyne. He was happy to return to stay with her the second day. He was tired and cozy both evenings after he came home. Based on these two days we would highly recommend Roselyne.”

About: I have been a pet owner for as long as I can remember and have experience caring for dogs of different ages, sizes, and personalities. I'm a confident, patient and attentive caregiver who understands that each dog has unique needs. I prioritize safety, consistency, and making each dog feel comfortable and at home. Whether it's walks, playtime, cuddles, or maintaining their regular routine, I'll care for your dog as if they were my own. As a stay at home parent, I have a flexible schedule and am home most of the day. This allows me to provide plenty of attention, regular potty breaks, exercise, playtime, and companionship. I can easily maintain your dog's normal routine to help them feel comfortable and at home during their stay. Your dog's safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have a fully fenced yard for safe outdoor play and one friendly, well-socialized dog who enjoys meeting new friends. I always introduce the dogs gradually and supervise interactions to ensure everyone is comfortable. If your dog needs their own space, I'm happy to accommodate this as well, including crating if requested. I'll follow your feeding schedule, exercise routine, and any special instructions. I will send you updates if requested so you can enjoy your time away knowing your pet is in caring hands.

“Renita was nothing but wonderful with our pup! She has a very warm presence that helped make him feel comfortable immediately. Renita has a great dog set up at home with access to a fenced in yard. She provides lovely pictures and updates throughout the day. We will definitely be returning soon! Thanks Renita :)”

About: I have always had family dogs growing up. We just love dogs, they make everything more enjoyable. I have my corgi since 2019, we cared for her since she was a puppy. Crate trained her within 3 months. She is the best! Most of the time we'd say we got lucky but it was really more of a teamwork! We trained her and she is a quick learner:-) I have so much love for dogs, caring for them is not a job for me. It is my passion:-) I will take care of your dogs with the utmost care that you expect! Message me if you need a sitter! I am working from home, I usually walk the dogs between 6am-10am, and then pee and play break between 1pm-3pm, another walk at 6pm onwards and then another one before midnight/ sleep time. Depending on the owner, we have crates for trained dogs. And if you prefer the dog to be loose inside the house as long as they are not disruptive, we are also fine with this.

About: I’ve been caring for dogs and other pets since I was a little girl, and it’s something I truly love. Over the years, friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed, and care for dogs of all sizes—from tiny 10 lb pups to 100 lb gentle giants. I have extensive experience with senior dogs and pets with anxiety, and I always take the time to ensure they feel safe, calm, and comfortable. Whether it’s administering medication, sticking to routines, or just offering quiet companionship, I adjust my care to meet each dog’s individual needs. I’m happy to provide daily updates with photos, short videos, and notes on how your pet is doing—including food intake and poop reports—so you can relax knowing everything’s going smoothly. I work from home with a flexible schedule, which means I have plenty of time to give your pet the attention they deserve—whether it’s early morning walks, midday potty breaks, or weekend cuddles. Your pet won’t be left alone for long periods, and I’m happy to adapt my routine to match their needs. Consistent care, love, and plenty of updates are all part of the experience! I live in a house with a fenced back yard that’s just steps away from parks and green spaces, perfect for daily walks and outdoor play. I love being outside and often go on walks or hikes, which means your fur baby will get plenty of fresh air, exercise, and enrichment. You can trust that your pet will be in a safe, calm, and caring environment, with consistent companionship and lots of love.

“Megan was great! My Wife and I went to our daughter's graduation at Del and needed someone to take care of our 8 month old Siberian Husky, Eva. We are from a long distance away and were worried about who we could trust with Eva. After careful consideration, we decided to ask Megan as she would take Eva in her home, she has a beautiful dog of her own, and she has a good area to take the dogs outdoors. All day long Megan kept us very well update (with pictures) on how Eva was doing. I would definitely recommend Megan to anyone who is looking for a sitter. Also, Megan's dog is awsome! I would offer to take her anytime if Megan needed a sitter if she was in our area. Thank you Megan”

About: I’m the kind of pet sitter who will probably spoil your pet a little — okay, maybe a lot! 🐾 I have two dogs of my own, so I understand that pets aren’t “just pets”; they’re family. I’m patient, attentive, and comfortable with energetic pups, cuddly companions, and senior dogs who need a little extra TLC. I’ll follow your pet’s routine, give them plenty of attention and exercise, and make sure they get all the belly rubs and cuddles they’re used to. My goal is for your pet to have such a great time that they’re excited to come back! I’m retired, so I’m home most days and have plenty of time to devote to your pets. I have a very flexible schedule and can give them the attention, companionship, walks, playtime, and care they need throughout the day. I’m not rushing off to work, so your pet won’t be left alone for long periods. I’m happy to work with each pet’s individual routine and make sure they feel comfortable, loved, and right at home while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort will always be my priority. In my home, I provide a clean, calm, pet-friendly environment with plenty of supervision, attention, and opportunities for walks and play. I’ll follow your instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, medications, routines, and any special needs. If caring for your pet in your home, I’ll treat your home with the same care and respect I would my own, while keeping your pet’s normal routine as consistent as possible. I understand that every pet is different, and I’ll take the time to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved.
