Pet Sitting in Hantsport

“Emma was great! She sent photos from both check ins, and responded quickly when we booked. Would definitely recommend Emma! Our cats were well taken care of.”

About: I’ve had dogs in my house for over 10 years, as well as cats. I’m a big animal person and I also have experience on farms and with horses. I have a fairly flexible work schedule depending on the week, and I am available all evenings and most mornings, as well as on weekends. I treat all pets as if they were my own and respect clients' requests and needs for their pets. If I’m unsure of a situation I’d much rather ask the owner than assume! I also am happy to send daily updates and photos of your pets throughout my stay.

About: I have had animals my entire life, for 13 yrs to be exact! I have cared for everything from fish, cats, dogs, chickens, horses and donkeys. You can be sure your pet will be welcomed in my home like family. I will always strive to make your pet feel safe when with me and go the extra mile to ensure their happiness. If they have specific needs or routines I am more than happy to accommodate those as best as I can. You can feel comfortable knowing I never have more than 3-4 dogs (including my own) in my home at anytime. I like to provide personal and detailed services to my clients and their fur-babies, and it sets my care apart from regular kennels ! I find this extremely beneficial when working with puppies as they need much more personalized care. I have PLENTY of toys available as well as extra food bowls if needed. I look forward to meeting with you and your pet ! I work in healthcare full time but have a schedule that allows me to have multiple days off that are completely free ! I have set my availability to reflect that. I have a large Kennel should my or your dog need to be separated. Lots of space in my home and an spare bedroom for separation as well. We live in a quieter traffic area that is very pet friendly.

“I’ve seen Sue strap on snowshoes to walk the dog because the snow was so high. In a word dedicated. I know she spoils my pets-they love her.”

“I have known Richard for several years. He has always been an animal lover. He treats my dog and cat as if they were his own and they are always overjoyed to see him. He always pays attention to other people’s pets and spoils his own.”

“Sarah has been an integral part of our pet care for several years now. She has cared for both our dogs and cats in our home. A qualified vet assistant, she portrays a confident and very calm manner around all our animals and has experience with extra large and small breeds alike. One of our dogs has hip dysplasia and has received exceptional care. The best thing about Sarah is that our pets are treated as if they are her own. No love or effort is spared. Thank you Sarah !”

“Alexandra was amazing with our cats while we were out of town. She consistently updated us photos and messages, I had no worries at all that my cats were in great hands!”

“Rhi is a wonderful pet owner and caretaker! She is knowledgable and dedicated to the dogs and cats in her care, and has a great understanding of pet behaviour.”

“As a dog owner I am always a little nervous leaving my two behind while travelling but Amelia made it sooo much easier to leave and not worry. I knew they were in good hands. My husband and I enjoyed the daily pictures and updates as well. I would 100% recommend this sitter and will hopefully be able to use her again in the future.”

About: I have had the pleasure of having dogs of all ages a part of my family. As a teen, I took part in training my family’s two golden doodles at the ages. Recently I welcomed my first dog of my own to the family this past fall. My now 6 month old golden retriever is developing to an obedient, playful and energetic teenager. I hope you give me the please of providing the same care to your babies! I do live a busy lifestyle, and currently am working rotational shift work. Unfortunately that means I’m not the best fit for a typical Monday-Friday. However I have the advantage of several consecutive days away from work in a row. If you have any specific dates you’re looking for a sitter, dog walking, or playdates with my golden please do not hesitate to reach out. I have a big (non-fenced in) back yard, and located next to walking trails through Wolfville. Our dog is crate trained in our home, and if you would like the same for yours, we can make that happen.

About: With a genuine love for animals, I have spent years for furry companions of all shapes and sizes. From dogs and cats to birds. I’ve provided attentive care, ensuring their well being and happiness. Whether its daily walks, playtime, or feeding, I approach each responsibility with dedication and compassion. My experience has taught me the importance of building trust and forming strong bonds with pets, making me a reliable and trustworthy choice for any pet sitting role. I’m available for pet care services Monday through Friday from 5:00pm to 8:00pm. Additionally, I’m fully available for the entire day on Saturdays and Sundays. When caring for pets in client’s home, I prioritize their comfort, safety, and well being. This starts with an initial consultation to understand their needs and routines. I ensure they are fed, hydrated, and medicated according to instructions. Engaging them in tailored exercises and playtime keeps them happy and healthy. I create a secure and cozy environment with their favourite toys and bedding. Basic grooming keeps them comfortable, and regular updates assure clients of their pet’s welfare, fostering trust and peace of mind.

“Kaylee was a wonderful dog sitter! She took great care of my two large dogs. She sent regular photos and updates and even have a little extra love to our cat. The dogs were happy and healthy when we arrived back home. The house was in perfect condition. I will definitely hire Kaylee again.”

“Ella is absolutely amazing. I have known her and had her take care of my dogs, cats and Guinea pigs for the last 13 years. She is very reliable, and keeps in touch while I’m away, and promptly responds to any of my calls or texts. My animals adore her. She is so loveable kind, and gentle. She has cared for 2 of my senior dogs. One who was blind and deaf, she would only be able to be left if it was with Ella. Your precious fur babies are certain to be in the best, capable hands and care possible.”

“Quinn is as dependable as he is caring. He assigns a high standard of care to the people and animals around him, a skill that he has honed from a lifelong approach bringing him into the company of so many! In knowing and caring for so many different kinds of animals, he can recognize and respond to their uniqueness. He has a wide range of care-based skills from being a volunteer in veterinary service settings, a pet owner, a generous neighbour by inviting other dogs on his long walks, and a trusted friend to hold down the fort when people are away. Quinn has top-notch risk management skills to provide safe care; knowing when to intervene, and how, if something were to go wrong. He is pure empathy - extending himself as a supportive animal friend who keenly observes animal behaviour and needs. He is the sweetest young man brimming with humility (that he probably learned from animals...), and I will always turn to him for pet care.”

“Julia is a very compassionate person who loves animals. She studied in a veterinary program in college and continue to look for ways to interact with animals. She has some of her own, and walks friends dogs in the neighborhood when they are too busy with work. Julia loves animals and she would be a fantastic fit!”

“Kate was wonderful with our two Labs. They took to her right away. She was very attentive, professional and provided great care. Definitely recommend and hope to use her in the future.”

“First time using Rover and very happy with the service provided by Lynsey! Already have her booked for another trip later in the year. Certainly would recommend Rover/Lynsey!!!”

“Grace is one of the most caring and loving person I’ve ever had the pleasure of meeting, she loves dogs and loves taking care of them. I believe she is the best person for the job.”

“I am writing to recommend Kendra for her exceptional pet care skills. I have known Kendra for several years, and I can confidently say that she is one of the most responsible and loving pet caregivers I have ever met. Kendra is passionate about animals and takes her role as a pet caregiver very seriously. She has a natural ability to connect with pets and make them feel loved and cared for. She has an intuitive sense of what they need, and she always goes above and beyond to ensure their wellbeing. Kendra is also highly responsible when it comes to taking care of pets. She understands that pets are a significant responsibility and require a great deal of attention and care. She is always punctual with feeding and walking schedules and ensures that they receive the necessary medical attention when needed. Additionally, she is proactive in identifying potential health issues and seeks professional help immediately. I have personally seen how Kendra treats her own dogs, and it is evident that they are happy, healthy, and content under her care. She always prioritizes their comfort and happiness, and her commitment to their well-being is unwavering. In conclusion, I highly recommend Kendra as a responsible and loving pet caregiver. She has a natural ability to connect with animals, and her dedication and commitment to their well-being make her an excellent choice for any pet owner. Sincerely, Katia”

About: I believe what sets me apart from other sitters is my unique combination of skills, experience, and passion for animal care. I have undergone professional dog obedience training, which includes understanding their unique needs, training them with positive reinforcement methods, and ensuring their overall well-being. In addition to this, I have extensive experience in senior pet care. I understand the special attention and patience required to care for older pets, including administering medication, assisting with mobility, dietary changes and providing comforting companionship. But beyond these skills, I think what truly sets me apart is my genuine love for animals. I treat every pet as if they were my own, providing them with the love and care they deserve. I believe this passion shines through in my work and is felt by the pets I care for. Pet care is an integral part of my daily and weekly routine. While I work from 9 am to 5 pm from Monday to Friday, my evenings are dedicated to providing care for pets. This includes walks, playtime, feeding, and any other necessary services. On weekends, my schedule is much more flexible. I am available all day and can provide a range of services, including boarding. This allows me to spend quality time with the pets, ensuring they receive the attention and care they need while their owners are away. I understand the importance of consistency in a pet’s routine, so I strive to maintain their usual schedule as closely as possible. Whether it’s their feeding times, walk times, or playtimes, I adapt my routine to fit theirs. This way, pet care seamlessly fits into my life, and I can provide the best service possible for your furry friends. Caring for pets, whether in my home or a client’s home, is always done with the utmost respect and consideration for the pet’s needs and comfort. In my home, I ensure that the environment is safe, clean, and comfortable for the pets. I have a dedicated space for them to rest and play. I also maintain a strict feeding schedule and ensure they have plenty of fresh water available at all times. Playtime and walks are a part of the daily routine, and I make sure to give them plenty of attention and love. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their space and follow any specific instructions provided by the owner. I ensure the pet’s routine is maintained as closely as possible to what they are accustomed to, in order to minimize stress. This includes feeding times, walk times, and any medication or special care they might need. In both scenarios, I prioritize communication with the pet owners. I provide regular updates and am always reachable should they wish to check in on their pet. My goal is to provide peace of mind to the pet owners, knowing their furry friends are in good hands
