“Heather watched our dog Wyatt over Easter weekend. She took amazing care of him and took him on lots of fun adventures including hikes and to Easter dinner with her family. Wyatt was very happy when we got back and was tuckered out from having so much fun. Heather was great with providing updates on how Wyatt was doing and our house was spotless when we got home. I would definitely recommend Heather as a dog/house sitter.”

“Hannah was so helpful when we needed a last minute dog sitter at our airbnb for the day. Great communication and you can tell she is very diligent and trustworthy with your pet. Highly recommend and I wish we lived closer to have Hannah again. My dog was very happy with her and they had a great day walking the trails and snuggling! Thank you Hannah!!”

“Neeru took great care of Molly and Django. She noticed things about them that show us she was paying attention to their behaviour and interactions. They seemed very happy on the videos and photos and they were definitely relaxed and content when we arrived.”

“Melanie was very attentive to all my fur babies. While my written directions seemed complete (to me), fortunately Melanie did not hesitate to reach out to me to ensure that all was as it should be. She kept us updated throughout the sit, gave my pups lots of attention and exercise. She also kept my house tidy and cleaned up after herself, which is much appreciated. Highly recommend and will not hesitate to book her again when the need presents itself.”

About: I have had dogs my whole life, used to have cats too. I now own 14 animals including, 2 dogs, 8 snakes, 1 gecko, 1 bunny, and 2 horses. I have walked and taken care of neighbours and family friends animals since I was 15. I love all ages of of animals, from youngsters to seniors and willing to work with different needs! I am currently working part time at a horse riding facility, and am enrolled in Algonquin college full time, but super willing to work around schedules and compromise! I am willing to take over any routine your pet may need while you’re away, crating overnight, different feed schedules, daily walking, potty break times, etc.

“I recently had the pleasure of hiring Haley for my pup and I cannot express enough how wonderful the experience was. From the moment I met her, it was evident that she possessed a genuine love for animals and a remarkable level of patience. She consistently provided updates throughout the day which put me so much at ease. I cannot recommend Haley to take care of your fur babies enough. I’ll def be reaching to her for future pet sitting needs.”

About: What sets me apart as an animal sitter is a lifetime of experience and a genuine passion for caring for animals of all kinds. I’ve been surrounded by animals for as long as I can remember and have had the privilege of caring for them at every stage of life, from tiny babies to elderly companions. My experience includes everything from daily dog walking to specialized care for pets recovering from surgery or living with health conditions. I’m comfortable providing attentive support to senior animals, handling medication routines, and making sure each pet feels safe and cared for. Whether it’s active playtime, quiet companionship, or following detailed care instructions, I approach each pet with patience and understanding. Pet sitting for me is more than just a service—it’s an extension of my lifelong passion for animal care. I treat every animal as if they were my own, ensuring they feel loved, secure, and well looked after while their families are away. I am currently balancing a part-time schedule which gives me plenty of flexibility to dedicate time to your pets. My routine allows for consistent check-ins and playtime sessions throughout the week. I am particularly available for boarding on weekends and can accommodate weekday requests after 2pm to ensure your animals get the attention they deserve. I provide a calm and attentive environment for all my visitors. I currently have two cats of my own so I am very comfortable managing feline dynamics and specialized care needs. Whether I am at your home or mine I prioritize a secure setting. I am experienced with maintaining feeding schedules and ensuring a high standard of cleanliness for all pets in my care.

“Toby and Misty thoroughly enjoyed being taken care of by Katie and her step son. They spent lots of time outside and played and hung out around the fire. They also spent time with our three chickens. We were thoroughly pleased with Katie's communication and care. My husband and I were able to go on our business trips at ease, knowing that everything and everyone was in great hands. We would happily ask Katie to watch our fur-babies again.”

“Danika was phenomenal. If you’re looking for someone to care for your pets, do yourself a favour and book her. We felt incredibly lucky that we had Danika house sitting for us while we were away! To the humans, she was kind, responsive, and reassuring. And the dogs love her, including our anxious one who rarely connects so quickly with anyone! I can’t believe how fast the dogs took to her. We left her information about our dogs’ routines, likes and dislikes, etc., and she followed it attentively. Not only did she provide our dogs with a fun weekend, she also left our house cleaner than we left it, which was unbelievable and unexpected! We will rebook with Danika whenever we can!”

“We hired Giang to stay in our house for two weeks to take care of our cat and two dogs. She was wonderful with communication, pictures and updates that had us laughing and feeling like she was in tune with their personalities. We felt like they were in good hands, as was our house, and would use her again in the future.”

Lots of physical exercise in the yard and on trails and at the river. I have had a dogs and cats, birds and rabbits since childhood. I am very responsible and kind and fun. I have 18 years experience as a care worker for medically fragile and disabled people and the home. I also take care of the animals in the home and grooming and safety. I am happy to open my home to caring for people’s animals and look forward to getting to know your family and your animals. Take Care, CJ. I have plenty of time to give attention to pets in our home. The animals are first in the routine with fresh water, food and outdoor exercise. I have a large, private lot that the dogs can play in on their leash. We have a large home where I provide very safe care for every animal.

About: In my younger years, I had clinical experience working in a veterinary setting, which gives me an understanding of animal health, behaviour, and attentive, preventative care.

Through our business, WellNest Home & Pet Care, we provide reliable, in-home pet sitting and house care services.

We have experience caring for dogs, cats, and aquariums, including feeding, exercise, companionship, and maintaining structured routines.

We keep your home clean, secure, and well cared for, and provide regular updates and photos so you can feel completely at ease while you’re away.

About: Lifetime dog Mom. We have boarded dogs from 1 night to 20 nights so far. We have had Mini and teacup poodles, Dachshunds, Goldens, Labs, Labradoodles, Bichons, Schnauzers and other mixed breeds. We have great relationships with all of our pet families. We are a family of four, my husband and I have been in Richmond for 27 years in the same home. We live in a bungalow with a fenced yard. Many furry guests have enjoyed lazing in the sun in our front window, on our backyard deck and have enjoyed going for long walks in our dog friendly, and walking through the conservation area alongside the Jock River. We have two grown sons - 21 and 25. We all work full time, and there’s always somebody home. We are all animal lovers. I grew up with a shepherd and a lab. Our family has had the love of Ruby, a beagle and the most fun with Freddie, our beloved Bichon-Poodle. We laid Freddie to rest in Sept 2021. Our home is open to doggie silliness and company. I’ve done pet and house sitting for friends and family for years. Our primary interest is in hosting low or non-shedding dogs. Doodles, poodles, schnauzers, dachshunds, GMD, you get the idea. We love small to medium breeds. But check with me because I do love them all and would be willing to try any breed. I like to arrange a meet and greet and have a trial stay before committing to a long term 1-2 week stay. Our family has taken many roads trips and brought our own dogs with us over many years, now we are avid campers/glampers (travel trailer) and, when our customers approve, we have taken some of our furry guests with us. We understand both your concerns and your needs for a worry free time away. We are ready to care for your pet and give you peace of mind while away. Please note that we may take dogs from 2 families at one time during busy seasons and are well set up to manage this. Our home is a relaxed space and we always make sure the furry guests are kept stress free. I work full-time (mostly remotely) - when I have to be in the office I make arrangements with my sons to help out with dog walking and check-ins. My days ebb and flow. I can take the time necessary to get up early with your dog and get them walked, fed and settled before I start my day. I often have breaks during the day and can take them out a couple of times per day as necessary. We also have a fenced yard and a dog door to our large deck and yard. My pet sitting style is to give dogs lots of play, attention, snuggly places to nap and enough love so they don’t miss you too much while you’re away - hoping you and your pet will be comfortable never stressed. I can care for your furry family members in my home or in yours. I know it helps dogs and cats feel less stressed when they can stay home, follow their routines and be in safe and familiar surroundings.

“We are beyond happy and satisfied with Ashley’s service. It’s so comforting and good to know that our little Maggie is in such loving hands when we’re gone for any length of time. Anyone reviewing Ashley should not hesitate to see if she’s available to you - but US first…!”

About: I have been an animal lover as long as I remember. I have owned dogs, cats, rabbits, and hamsters so I am comfortable with most animals. I will be available during weekday mornings, as I work evenings. Typically 8 am to 2 pm will be my dog care hours but that way vary. I have two dogs currently and they are treated as royalty in my house. They get plenty of exercise and walks. I also make homemade dog food
