About: I have a huge heart for animals of all kinds. With years of experience caring for a variety of pets, I understand the deep bond people share with their animals and the trust required to care for them while you are unable. I can provide walks, feeding on time, play time, giving medication if needed. It brings me joy caring for furry friends! I am available whenever throughout the week weekends, anytime after 8am. Except Wednesdays, and Thursday evenings. So please feel free to ask me about availability I have a big backyard that is fully fenced in. Also lots of room to roam around inside of the house. Please let me know any accommodations as needed
““Brena was absolutely amazing, and I’m so glad we found her! It was such a relief to know my kitties were well taken care of and loved. They got their outside time, their rubs, and all the attention they needed. The pictures she sent were always the highlight of my day—waking up to them and going to bed with those wholesome images really put my mind at ease, knowing they were getting love every day. Thank you for going the extra mile doing the little you did, I really appreciate it”
About: I currently work at a doggy daycare and am in school to become a veterinary assistant, so I have experience caring for all different kinds of dogs and animals! I have 2 dogs of my own, one is a puppy I’m raising, and they are just the sweetest things. I work 1 day a week, so other than that all of my time is free and flexible to work around your schedule and your needs! I promise to take as good of care of your fur babies as I do of my own! I care for them in the comfort of your own home! So they don’t need to get used to a whole different environment. I do daily drop-ins, dog walks, and overnight pet sitting.
“Kash was an amazing boarding sitter! He was very good with clear communication and sent pictures very frequently of my Cat Oscar during my two weeks away. I had booked with Kash a bit last minute and he was very prompt in his responses and get back to me really quickly! This was my first time trying Rover and Kash made the experience seamless and easy. I would 100% rebook with Kash and recommend him to all furry friends out there who are looking for a sitter! Thanks!”
“from the get-go, I was drawn to Amanda’s enthusiasm and prompt, consistent communication. As we spent time with Amanda, it was clear that Tiff most appreciated her footwear ;) Amanda was quick to pick up weighing and measuring food x4/day, kept the food prep area clean, water fresh and litter scooped. Plus pics and anecdotes to let me know how Tiffany was responding to her - what else can a cat mom ask for? Amanda gets our top ratings!”
About: My husband and I have owned dogs for the past 15 plus years together, and our families both owned them for many years growing up. While he would not attend your home with me, I like everyone to know that our entire house is Pet lovers. My soft spot is for seniors, and dogs with varying degrees of health related issues. The ones that nobody wants and the often misunderstood ones. I have cared for a variety of breeds with varrying degrees of health issues. I have extensive experience in administering medications, IV fluids, intramuscular injections, eye drops, nail trims, and more. I have had 2 blind dogs (one of which had both of her eyes removed due to glaucoma), so am very familiar with their sometimes unique challenges. I also have experience caring for dogs with little to no hearing, as well as ones with various levels of behavioral challenges, such as resource/food guarding, stranger/leash aggression, and more. As the owner of Manitoba's ONLY small animal rescue charity, I also have a wealth of knowledge and experience with exotic and small animals such as rabbits, guinea pigs, hamsters, and more! While I love a good puppy cuddle, my heart belongs to the older four (or less!) legged friends, and I would love the opportunity to meet your furry family members. Thanks to some amazing clients and word of mouth referrals, I was recently able to quit my corporate job to do pet sitting full time! I am so incredibly greatful for this new schedule, which allows me to dedicate as much time aa possible to caring for your furry family members. I love the idea of coming to your home to care for your pets, as it allows them to continue to feel safe and in a familiar environment. Following their regular routine helps make any time away from mom and dad as stress free as possible. Pets are never left outside unattended, and if you don't have a completely fenced yard, they will always be on a secure leash for potty breaks. If spending overnights in your home, I welcome the pets to share a sleeping space, or crate them as requested. Even if I do things different with my own pets, I want to ensure all of your rules and routines are followed while you are away.
About: I grew up around animals and have years of hands-on experience with both dogs and cats. I’m patient, reliable, and understand how to care for pets of all ages — from playful puppies to gentle seniors. I offer loving, safe walks and drop-in visits with full attention to your pet’s needs. I usually take care of pet walks after 4 PM and am available for walks or visits then. My schedule is flexible in the afternoons and evenings to fit your pet’s needs. I prioritize creating a safe, calm, and loving environment for every pet, whether in my home or the client’s. I follow all care instructions carefully, keep hazardous items out of reach, and supervise pets closely during walks and playtime. Trust and open communication with pet owners are very important to me to ensure pets feel comfortable and well cared for at all times.
“Pearl was an amazing and responsible sitter for our cat Kit. Kit is very shy around new people, but it didn't take him long to fall in love with Pearl. She came for a meet and greet before her stay with Kit and sent us regular fun updates during the stay itself. The next time we travel, we will happily reach out to Pearl again :)”
