Pet Sitting in Halifax

“Lori is amazing. We are so happy we have found her. Jasper and Gracie loves spending time with her. They are always happy and tired. It gives me so peace of mind knowing they are taken good care of so that we can enjoy some time away. Lori is a treasure! She plays their favorite games and adds in all the training I have been doing with them. I think Lori is their BFF!”

“Sydney and Mike were very accommodating and understanding of Oscar’s unique personality and needs. Their daily updates and photos were very reassuring that time was being spend with him to ensure his needs were met. The sketch of Oscar left for our return home was such a sweet surprise! I would absolutely book again in the future- thank you Sydney and Mike!!”

About: I have over 10 years of experience working with dogs of diverse breeds, ages, behaviours, and care needs. In addition to growing up with family dogs my entire life, I have 6 years of volunteer experience with dog rescue associations. Through this work, I have fostered over 10 dogs in my own home, with stays ranging from just a few days to my longest foster stay of 7 months. Alongside fostering, I have also volunteered walking, socializing, and caring for countless other rescue dogs. I also hold a certificate from the Association for Animal Welfare Development, earned through completing coursework focused on introducing dogs to new environments, people, and other dogs in safe and positive ways. Through my volunteer experience, I have communicated with dog behaviourists, veterinarians, and adopters to help support the best possible outcomes for each dog. Over the years, I have cared for dogs with a wide range of behavioural and medical needs. I have experience administering medication, supporting nervous or high-energy dogs, creating safe introductions, and adapting routines to fit each dog’s individual personality and needs. I am confident handling unexpected situations and always prioritize creating a calm, safe, and positive environment for pets. In addition to my extensive volunteer experience, I have also cared for dogs as an official sitter and have experience following detailed care instructions while caring for dogs both in their own homes and in mine. I pride myself on having strong communication skills and understanding that dogs are truly members of the family. Through my volunteer experience, I have learned the importance of transparency, consistency, and trust when it comes to caring for someone else’s pet, and I believe clear communication is extremely important in ensuring the safest and happiest experience possible for your dog. I also still keep in contact with many of the individuals and families who adopted dogs I previously fostered. Because of this, I completely understand how important updates and communication can be while you are away from your pet, and I am more than happy to provide as many updates, photos, and check-ins as you would like. I have a genuine love and connection with dogs, and truly believe that the time spent caring for them is always mutually rewarding. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine and schedule. I currently have a flexible schedule, which allows me to dedicate consistent time and attention to walks, feedings, playtime, and check-ins throughout the day. Having fostered and cared for dogs with a wide range of needs over the years, I am very used to structuring my routine around an animal’s care, comfort, and consistency. I also enjoy staying active through walks and outdoor time, so incorporating pet care into my day is something I genuinely enjoy When caring for pets in a client’s home, I closely follow all instructions regarding feeding schedules, walks, medications, crate routines, training expectations, and household rules to help maintain consistency and reduce stress for the pet while their owner is away. In addition to caring for pets, I take pride in being respectful, clean, and trustworthy in others’ homes.

“Chris took great care of our cat Nova over the holidays! We met in advance so I could give him the tour, walk through the instructions and he got to meet our cat before I went away. He was communicative and made an effort to befriend her and give her attention.”

“Keisha was amazing! Great communication, left the place perfectly near and tidy, and was great with Zoey and seemed very understanding of cat behaviour. Will definitely go to her again next time we need a sitter :)”

“Kate visited my two cats for a long weekend and was great with them. Kate was responsive, flexible and attentive to both cats needs, including giving medication. I don’t feel so guilty leaving town for the weekend knowing I can just ask Kate to stop by.”

“Courtney was great with our two cats! She followed the directions left for her and gave our cat her daily medication. We were able to enjoy our trip stress free knowing she was stopping by and giving us informed updates. Thanks again Courtney we will be sure to book you for future needs!”

About: I have been taking care of animals ever since I can remember! My background working on farms taught me to stay calm under pressure and handle animals of all sizes and temperaments. Whether it’s a stubborn puppy or a cat that needs a little extra space, I’m highly observant of animal body language. Feel free to reach out with any questions. I’m looking forward to helping you and your pet! I work remotely in the South End, giving me great flexibility for walks and house sitting. Since I'm home throughout the day, I can provide a high level of supervision and quick responses for any last minute needs. I treat your home with the same care I treat my own. While house sitting, I stay tidy, follow all house rules, and ensure your pet’s environment stays consistent and without stress. I provide detailed updates and photos after every visit or throughout a stay. I’m also happy to handle small household tasks.

“Emily was awesome with our cat while we were away. Great communicator and we could tell our cat was well looked after. Would definitely recommend Emily and would ask her back in the future!”

“Tamanna was great, she knows cats well and took the time and effort to treat Sid like her own. The pictures helped me know he was in good hands. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter.”

About: I have grown up with dogs all throughout my life, who had varying health issues and required special medical attention occasionally. I have proficient in dog walking, getting the afternoon zoomies out, and administering medication when necessary. My childhood dog is now 12 years old and is dealing with numerous conditions, and I have learned how to care for him and keep him comfortable in his senior life. I’d love to do the same for your dog no matter their age!! I work part time and have a varying schedule that is confirmed a month in advance. It is usually open Monday-Friday, and I am also available Holidays!! I care for my current cat Pekoe as though she is my literal child. She gets all the attention and love in the world, and I am very cautious and aware of any health issues she may present. I volunteer regularly at shelters and adjust my approach to care giving as I learn the attitude and needs of each individual animals. I recognize them as conscious friends who deserve the love, respect, and safety that we treat humans with.

“Thank you Vixie! Vixie was excellent, we have two mini aussies and a cat so it's quite the household and Vixie handled them all excellently!! Sawyer (one of our mini aussies) can be reactive and requires patience when taking her out. Vixie was able to navigate sawyer no problem! I couldn't recommend Vixie more!”
