Friday nights and Saturday nights are available for board and daycares. Week days are available for walking inthe evening. Prefer dogs who can walk with my dog. I can also take your dog to dog's park. Holidays Are available depending on my schedule. 2026 Christmas Available. I work full time so Sunday and week day nights are not available for boarding. at weekends, I walk dog at noon and in the evening. I am only available for walking in the evening after 6.30 pm on working days. evening walks are 40 min - 1hr15min (usually around 50 min) and weekends Noon walking is shorter. I sometimes go to dog park around 6.30, on weekends 1hr before getting dark. I sometimes hike with dogs in the afternoon during 2-5 pm depending on my schedule. I don’t do regular evening walks when I hike in the afternoon or go dogs park in the evening but I can take your dog with me for hiking and going dog's park.
About: Very comfortable with medication administration and any special needs your dog or puppy may need. Nurse by profession with a great love for all animals. I’m available from 5pm Friday until Monday morning 8am full care. If you have other needs through the week please message to discuss - here to help in any way with your pet care needs. My golden retriever Wilson both has free rein of the home and comfortable in his kennel. I would prefer kennel trained but if well mannered - fine to have free in the house.
“I had an amazing experience with Frederic and highly recommend him to everyone. He kept me updated and provided pictures throughout the process. My dogs were completely worn out when I got them back, which makes me happy—I can finally sleep soundly too!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Kentville
Emma is absolutely fantastic! She’s my go-to sitter for Gus, my high-energy goofball, and I couldn’t ask for anyone better. She always takes such great care of him, keeps me updated, and gives me complete peace of mind while I’m away. Gus absolutely loves her, which says it all! I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Emma to anyone looking for someone reliable, caring, and genuinely great with dogs. Thanks again, Emma!

Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they do not have any disqualifying offences.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
You and your Kentville sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
