About: Hi! We are Kat and Dave. An easy going couple who loves to take care of animals. We have both grown up with dogs and cats in our households. We don't currently have any animals and are missing that connection. We both have experience pet sitting in recent years, which includes lots of dog walking, playing with cats and dogs, and meeting the animals' needs. We are comfortable with different sizes and breeds. **Note: We do both work full time jobs Monday - Friday, but may have flexibility during the weekdays, depending on the time / day you request and the area you are in.** We will follow any instructions you leave with the utmost care and attention, and make sure that your pet is kept safe while under our watch. We can do drop-in visits and dog walking! We will be able to start house sitting the end of September 2025. Our schedules are pretty flexible at the moment. We are available during the daytime and evenings. :) While house sitting, we can care for the pet at the owner's house. We can take them out to their favourite park or walking route. We will take them wherever the pet owner is comfortable with.
“Grace was fantastic! We loved all of her notes and photos of Mimi and knowing she was there to check on her daily brought us so much relief while we were on vacation. Highly recommend Grace!”
About: I have had animals my whole life (cats and dogs) . I truly believe they are part of the family, so I treat them as such! I am currently working part time, so I have lots of time left over to care for you furry friends. I am a mother of 3, so I’m used to staying busy. My availability is set to times where my littles aren’t around, so if your furry family isn’t a fan of children, that’s no problem! I have a beautiful back yard (not fully fenced however I am working on that) for your pet to run around. I also have a cat of my own, she’s is the sweetest - however she is quite shy! She would be no interruption to the time I spent with you pet :)
About: I've grown up around dogs and cats all my life and have had extensive experience in caring for them while my family was on vacation. I've also looked after my neighbor's and friend's pets on many occasions which included walking, feeding, bathing, cleaning up after them, etc. I currently work as a freelance writer which I do from home. I can take my work anywhere which leaves my schedule very open for pet care. I am very attentive to the needs of a pet and can follow specific instructions regarding caretaking. I also enjoy playing and/or exercising with them often if the animal is very active.
About: Caring for pets comes naturally. Growing up with goldens, lab and a poodle. Then owing 2 Aussie Shepards and 3 cats. Shiloh the Shi Tzu is my latest pet, I trained her through professionals and now have a very loving dog, that love extends to all pets. I started by friends asking me to sit there dogs while they were away. Loving and caring for other dogs and cats, started as hobby and now I would love to do the same for you! I know that giving your dog exercise can greatly effect your pet in a positive way. They listen better and are generally happier. Love 💕 is a key ingredient to happier dog as well. Dogs are mostly comfortable in their own environment and their routines are very important to stay the same as they are used to. I am retired and have time to walk dogs, pop in to different homes to walk feed and care for other dogs. If they get along with other dogs can walk them with my dog. I will do both as my dog loves others or if the dog does not socialize well I can go to their home as needed.
