About: I’ve cared for pets my entire life and treat every animal like family. I offer a calm, quiet home that’s perfect for senior pets or those with anxiety. With experience in administering medication, managing dietary needs, and creating structured routines, I specialize in gentle, personalized care. Whether it’s a slow walk, cuddle time, or a little extra patience, I’m here to make your pet feel safe and loved. Pet care is a seamless part of my daily life. I’m up early, outside often, and always tuned in to the needs of the animals around me. Walks, feedings, playtime, and quiet snuggles are built into my routine, just like caring for my own pets. There’s plenty of space to roam, and even more time for attention and love. Safety and trust are my top priorities. My home is quiet, secure, and pet-friendly, with no children and plenty of space to explore. I follow your pet’s routines closely, including feeding, medication, and exercise in a fully fenced yard. Because I work from home, your pet will never be left unattended and will get consistent, loving care in a calm, structured environment.
About: Last year I had the pleasure of meeting many loveable dogs through Rover! Unfortunately I took a break due to an injury but am excited to be back! I have had the pleasure of being around dogs of all ages all my life. In 2023 my fiance and I welcomed our first (own) puppy to our little family who has quickly become the centre of our world. Our now 1.5year old boy is a well behaved and energetic pup who is eager to meet other dogs. I hope you give me the opportunity to spread the love to your critters! 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 (non-fenced in) back yard located on a quiet street in Wolfville. We are located walking distance to many walking trails and parks.

I have been taking care of dogs when the owners are not home as well as on vacation I get up every day and walk and feed my dog and make sure she is happy we play in the house for hours and go on long walks and new adventures i make sure they are loved and taken care of I attend to their every need from potty breaks to making sure they are played with and wagging their tail

“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!”
“We left our home and animals to Jacky while out of province for a week and we couldn’t have been happier with her services. She sent daily updates of our fur babies which included tons of cute photos of them playing outdoors and relaxing indoors. She put our mind at ease knowing they were being well taken care of, not to mention our animals LOVED her! Not only did she take great care of our animals but she made sure our home was well taken care of. She even put the garbage out to the end of the road on garbage day and frequently checked on our sump pump while we were gone- AMAZING. Would 100% book with Jacky again, in a heartbeat ! Thanks Jacky!”

“Stephanie is an amazing care giver for dogs. She treats all dogs the same as her own. Dogs love her. They always jump out of the car to get to the front door tails wagging. You have no worries when your babies are in her care. My dog also lives with her two dogs and she gets the best care same as her own. I would recommend Stephanie to any dog mom or dad.”

“Danielle dog sat our two dogs for a couple of days while we were out of town. She was very professional. She loves dogs and dogs love her. Our dogs were well cared for. I will definitely use her dog sitting services again.”
Carla & Rafe T.
“Carla and Rafe are absolutely amazing for dog owners! Leaving my animals with someone new always makes me a little anxious, but with Carla & Rafe, I feel completely at ease. They're incredibly reliable, trustworthy, and clearly have a genuine love for dogs (and other animals) There would never be a doubt my dog wasn’t being cared for the same way I would. I trust them to keep him happy, well-exercised, watered and fed. If you're looking for a pet sitter who treats your dog like their own and provides truly exceptional service, I wholeheartedly recommend Carla & Rafe!”
