Dog Sitting Hamilton

About: I have experience caring for dogs and giving medication when needed. I truly enjoy spending time with dogs and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for. There are two people in my household, so there is almost always someone at home to supervise and take care of the dogs. Even if we go out, it is never for very long, so your pet will not be left alone for extended periods. I can take dogs on daily walks and also bring them to nearby parks so they can get exercise and enjoy the outdoors. I make sure every dog gets plenty of attention, playtime, and regular potty breaks. I only accept a limited number of pets at a time to ensure each dog receives enough care and attention. I will treat every dog like my own and do my best to make them feel happy and comfortable while staying with me. I am a student at McMaster University and spend most of my time at home. I do not need to go to campus very often, and even when I do, I am usually not away for long periods of time. I personally provide all care for pets in my home, including feeding, walking, supervision, and attention. Your dog will not be left alone for long periods, and I will make sure they are safe, comfortable, and well cared for at all times. I truly love dogs and have experience caring for pets. I am patient, responsible, and attentive to each dog’s needs. I provide a safe, clean, and comfortable environment for all pets in my home. I always supervise dogs closely and make sure they are never left alone for long periods of time. I follow each dog’s routine and any instructions provided by the owner, including feeding schedules, exercise needs, and special care requirements. I also make sure the environment is secure and free of hazards. If any issues arise, I will communicate with the owner right away and handle the situation responsibly. My priority is always to ensure that every dog feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for.

“Brittany is an amazing petsitter, I am so glad she was able to care for my cat! You could really tell how much she loves pets.”

About: I grew up with dogs of all sizes, from Chihuahuas to Golden Retrievers. Years of living with more sensitive family dogs taught me to read body language closely, and I bring that same attentiveness to every walk and play session. I'll always work to earn your pet's trust and make sure they feel safe and comfortable in my care! I work from home with flexible hours, and pet care fits naturally into my day alongside my own cat. I'm used to building routines around a pet's needs, so incorporating yours is a straightforward task. Cats boarding in my home get their own dedicated space until they're ready to explore and meet Nuri (my cat) on their own terms. Dogs have the run of the place, with regular outdoor potty breaks throughout the day. All pets are welcome on the bed/any furniture. During drop-in visits, I'm happy to give them my full, undivided attention for the entire visit (if they want it, that is).

About: I truly connect with them. I'm especially skilled at puppy training using fun, positive methods, and I give extra-gentle, patient care to senior dogs, including any meds they need. Your dog gets a custom experience that goes beyond the basics, so they're not just cared for, but cherished. I'm recent college graduate, who is looking to make use of my time. My day is built around timely walks, feedings, and play sessions, with flexibility to ensure every dog's comfort and happiness. My services include pet sitting in your home or mine. I offer overnight stays, daily visits, and dog walking. I have a dog, so I can also board your pet in my home.

About: We are two experienced elementary school teachers looking to care for your pets and home. We offer personalized care for all furry friends. The benefit of hiring us is getting double the expertise, care, and attention for the price of one. Our pet care experiences began with us nurturing family pets growing up. From Miniature Pinschers to Boxers, Des has experience with both large and small dogs. She understands the importance of taking the time to learn each dog’s personality and temperament, ensuring that they feel comfortable and secure. Her knowledge of various breeds helps her provide tailored care, whether it’s for a high-energy pup or a more laid-back companion. Michelle, on the other hand, has a wealth of experience with cats of all kinds. She has a deep understanding of feline behaviour and the unique needs of cats, from playful kittens to more mature cats. Michelle is experienced in providing a comfortable and safe environment for cats, ensuring they receive the proper attention, affection, and care they deserve. Whether it's maintaining their feeding schedules, engaging in interactive play, or administering medication, Michelle handles each task with precision and love. With our combined experience and passion for animals we provide reliable, compassionate service. We treat your home and furry family members with the utmost respect and attention. Pet care fits seamlessly into our daily routine as elementary school teachers. During the summer, Christmas, and March break, our availability is wide open, allowing us to dedicate ample time to caring for your pets. During the school year (September-June), we are available during evenings and weekends to provide the care your pets need. If your furry friend can be alone during the day, we can still arrange overnight care, ensuring they’re well looked after even when you’re away. In our care, we prioritize creating a safe and loving environment for pets. This includes regular feeding and watering according to their schedules, ensuring they receive ample exercise and playtime, administering medications if needed, and maintaining cleanliness and hygiene in their living spaces. We tailor our approach based on each pet's specific needs and preferences, ensuring they feel comfortable and happy throughout their stay.

“Holly is friendly and engaging, and it was clear she genuinely loves animals. We highly recommend her and have already booked again for walks and home sitting.”

About: I had a German Shepherd for 12 years and now walk a Labadoodle everyday. I'm looking to walk and care for more dogs to fill my time. I'm retired and love to walk and hike. Bringing a dog along would make the walk even better. Available at all times of the day. My home is fenced and safe. I walk or care for one dog at a time. I have experience with larger dogs and will exercise caution when needed.

“This was our second time booking with Amber, and once again, she did a fantastic job! She dropped in to feed our two cats, clean the litter, and spend some time with them. It was reassuring to receive pictures during her visits — it gave us peace of mind knowing they were in good hands. We were able to truly enjoy our time away thanks to her care and attention. Highly recommend!”

About: Thank you for visiting my profile. My name is Courtney and I am the loving mother of a 16 year old Yorkie/Westie cross named Boomer. Don't let his age fool you - Boomer is always up for a good game of chase, tug of war, or wrestling match, he just likes more frequent naps at his old age. I work from home and can stay with your pets throughout their time with me! I have been house sitting & pet sitting for longer than I’ve been a pet mom myself. I will treat your pet like my own while I am with them! Please note: for all dog walks my dog WILL be coming with me so your dog should be good walking with other dogs. I have a stroller for Boomer if your dog is looking for a long/fast walk too! I also prefer to walk with dogs who are good on leash and firmly do not believe in the use of prong collars. I am self employed and work from home so my life is very flexible to the needs of any furry friends who come to stay with us or who need drop in visits or daily walkies! As I do not have a fenced yard all outdoor time will be on leash to ensure the safety of any pets. Since I am home during the day pets will be supervised throughout their indoor time as well to ensure they don’t get into any dangerous mischief.

“Lauren was great, very personable and responsive. She took great care of our cat while we were away and I'll definitely be rebooking again!”

“Taryn has looked after our cats a couple times now and we've always had a great experience. She made sure to ask lots of questions to be well prepared on her first visit which gave me peace of mind. Taryn is punctual and finds ways to work with our schedule. She takes great photos that always warm my heart, and I can tell she's a cat lover by the sweet updates she gives each visit. Thanks again Taryn!”

About: Being raised around pets my whole life and having many of my own pets in my adult life, I feel confident that I can give your pets all the same love and attention that I would give to my pets! My pets have always been my family and I will treat your pets the same. I am a huge lover of the outdoors and am happiest when I'm out walking, especially when I have dogs by my side, no matter what the weather is like! I have volunteered with animals in the past and feel comfortable with pets any size or energy level. I will do my absolute best to ensure your pets needs are met, no matter how big or small. I will also make sure to respect the owner's rules and make sure they are maintained. Photo updates so you can be sure your pets are happy and enjoying their time with me!

“Cat is awesome and I would definitely have her check on my cat again! I enjoyed getting all her updates and photos of Maverick. She asked all the right questions and I felt like Maverick was in great hands.”

“Samantha is a totally responsible dependable person, and from the photographs it looked like Dolly Nefertiti, my cat, was falling in love with her given those googly eyes...which she does not do for everyone. Thank you Samantha.”

Shirley M.

“Susan took great care of our cats and was attentive to their special needs. We got regular updates, which was greatly appreciated. We will be happy to have Susan back next time we need someone to look after our kitties. Thanks Susan!”

“Rachael was wonderful, great communication and I knew my cat was in very good hands. Everything was perfect with no worries. Thank you very much!”

Aleksandra J.

“Jesserene listens well to information and direction and adds her own affective skills of attention to detail and planning ahead. I was happy to hear determination in her voice as she asked important questions and offered suggestions. It was important to me to hear every day how my cat was doing and she developed an effective method to provide this for me. It is clear to me Jesserene intends to build an animal care giving practise to the best of her ability and I plan to engage her skills and passion for this work again! Best communication ever...a video of my cat curled up on Jesserene's lap...snoring! ?”

Denise G.

“Jocelyn is a wonderful person and took great care of our pets. She has a natural affinity towards animals. She paid attention to details and treated my pets with kindness and care. I am very happy with her. She communicated regularly with me during the visits with pictures and details. I possibly can't ask for more. We will definitely have her back in the future. Thank you”

About: I’ve been caring for animals for over 12 years and treat every pet like family. I have experience with dogs of all ages, sizes, and energy levels, including puppies, senior dogs, and dogs with medical or special care needs. I’m comfortable administering oral and topical medications, following special diets, maintaining routines, and caring for pets recovering from illness or surgery. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, or simply relaxing with company, I tailor every visit to their individual personality and needs. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my priority. I provide plenty of exercise, enrichment, affection, and one-on-one attention while you’re away. I also send regular photo and video updates so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy and well cared for. I understand that every dog is unique, and I take the time to build trust, reduce stress, and make each visit a positive experience. My goal is to make sure your dog feels safe, loved, and comfortable until you’re home again. I’m available every weekend and also offer weekday visits by request, depending on my schedule. I carefully plan my bookings so every pet receives the time, attention, exercise, and companionship they deserve. I strive to be punctual, reliable, and consistent with your pet’s routine to help them feel comfortable and stress-free while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and well-being are my top priorities. I primarily provide pet sitting, drop-in visits, and dog walking in your pet’s own home, where they can stay comfortable in their familiar environment and routine. I have experience caring for dogs, cats, birds, fish, reptiles, and small animals, and I tailor my care to each pet’s individual needs. I carefully follow your instructions, maintain feeding and medication schedules, provide exercise, enrichment, and companionship, and monitor for any changes in behaviour or health. You’ll receive regular photo and video updates so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. Home boarding may also be available by request for compatible pets after a meet-and-greet, depending on the pet’s temperament, needs, and availability.
