House Sitting in Kentville

About: I have 13 years of experience with dogs and used to rescue dogs as a side job, helping find them new homes. I’ve owned many dogs of different sizes and breeds, and I see them as loving, kind-natured pets that deserve the very best care. I have experience with everything from medical needs to caring for new puppies and training, and I’m patient and attentive to each dog’s individual needs. I’m available anytime. I can help with whatever is needed, including overnight care, visits, and bathroom breaks. I love spending time playing with pets and giving them one-on-one attention, and I always make sure they feel comfortable and cared for. All their needs will be fully taken care of, whether that includes medical care, one-on-one attention, feeding routines, or following specific schedules and detailed care instructions. I am patient, responsible, and committed to making sure your pets are safe, comfortable, and well cared for.

“Brianna is a lovely person who is easy to communicate with. Sophie was happy to see her and very comfortable and relaxed when I got back. It was easy to see she was well cared for. I will definitely have Brianna stay with Sophie and house sit again. I highly recommend her!”

About: I have had a pet ever since I can remember, I see them as a family member not just a pet. I have had dogs from the terrible puppy stage to the chill adulthood stage. I love all shapes and sizes, thick and thin hair! I’m also aware of allergies/conditions that any pet would have. I am currently working full time at a car dealerships. Monday - Friday 9am -5:30pm and Saturdays (9am -3pm) I do have Wednesday’s and Sunday’s off every week. I have a car for any reason that may occur. I am not allowed to have pets at my house currently but I have available to stay at your house to look after them if you need.

About: Hey there, I have always had dogs and animals in my home life, over the years helped out neighbours walk dogs, stayed at houses to care for morning to night. I have cared for Jack russels, austrain shepherds, black labs, husky/golden lab, racoon hound, saint Bernard's, Bernese, sheep dog, king Charles Spaniel. Love all the doggos. Enjoy company of little dogs/puppies too. I am currently work part time, and enjoy making my own schedule! Let me help keep your dog in shape by setting up a walk with me! Our dog is trained with beep system. She is very well behaved, I use a snap of the fingers to get her to slow while walking I have a 2 point harness for better control.

“Jenna was amazing! The dogs loved her (even our cranky little dog…) and she sent lots of pics while we were away. The house was clean and we felt reassured that she was taking care of things during our trip. We would absolutely book Jenna again!”

About: "I have years of experience caring for pets of all ages and breeds, from playful puppies to senior pets needing extra TLC. My calm and nurturing approach helps pets feel comfortable and safe, making me more than just a sitter—I’m a trusted companion for your furry family members. I am a golf professional so between November and April, I have more time to myself and work sparingly. Pet sitting is perfect for me and for you and your pet(s)! We have an animal friendly home that is a stones throw away from a park with plenty of space for your pet to run and roam. There is a sizable sofa, a chair, bed all for them, too. Wooden floors so any messes aren't as troublesome as it would be on carpet.

“Emma was great! We booked kind of last minute and she was happy to accommodate Bruce overnight. Bruce had so much fun with her and her doggos. Emma communicated well and shared pictures with us during Bruce’s visit. We would definetly book with Emma again!”

“Danielle was amazing!! She stayed for 3 days and 2 nights. She provided regular updates and photos via text. It really put us at ease knowing we had a sitter that cared about our pups. She left the house spotless which was an added bonus. We have already rebooked with her for our next trip Thank you Danielle”

“Kate was lovely throughout! We had a meet and greet and Henri was excited to get to know her. Communication was easy and responsive to get set-up. Everything went smoothly, Henri had a great time and she treated my home as it was her own! Would definitely recommend.”

“Hannah was wonderful in guiding us through our first Rover experience. We were nervous leaving our two dogs with someone other than family or close friends for the first time and Hannah reassured us every step of the way. She took the best care of our girls and updated us everyday with pictures. It is very apparent Hannah cares for the animals she looks after. She was professional and respectful of our home. We would not hesitate to book Hannah for our future dog sitting needs.”

“Being completely new to Rover, we were a little intimidated and skeptical of the process at first; however knowing we needing a sitter, something kept me drawn to Amber’s profile. Let me tell you that, within five minutes of our initial meet & greet any and all worries we’re completely washed away. Her personality is beautiful, her love and passion for dogs shined through and it was evident that she had much knowledge and experience in the field. I just knew that our dog was in very good hands. While away, she gave us just enough updates to reassure us that everything was going well back home and that we could enjoy our time away. If you are in need of a dog sitter, do not hesitate to reach out to Amber .. we are so glad we did!”

About: Experienced dog owner and trainer with three dogs of my own, including hands-on training of two certified therapy dogs; skilled in obedience, leash manners, feeding routines, and giving dogs the structure, exercise, and affection they need. Flexible schedule that easily accommodates daily walks, drop-ins, and overnight stays; happy to adjust timing around your pet’s routine for feeding, potty breaks, and bedtime, ensuring consistent care whether it’s a quick visit or an extended stay. In a pet owner’s home, I follow their established routines closely; sticking to regular feeding schedules, walk times, and bedtime habits to keep things familiar and low-stress. I’m comfortable administering medication, maintaining litter boxes, cleaning up after meals or accidents, and providing plenty of attention, play, and companionship. For overnight stays, I keep to the pet’s normal sleeping arrangements and make sure they feel safe and cared for until the owner returns. I always leave the home as tidy as I found it and communicate updates throughout the visit.

“Val was absolutely wonderful with our 2 labs! She is conscientious and caring. Our buddies warmed up to her quickly. We won't hesitate to have her stay overnight in our home again. She really gave us the peace of mind needed for our short getaway.”

About: I have a passion for pets and years of experience - I've had my own cats, dogs, rats, and hamsters, cared for roommates' cats and dogs, and done a lot of petsitting. I've lived with and cared for pets with aggression issues, medical needs, health problems, and both know how to handle and train pets and also have a lot of love to give! I have a special soft spot in my heart for older and senior animals, but love pets of all ages :) I'm new to Rover so don't have reviews here yet, but am happy to share my profile on Trusted Housesitters and AirBnb and to provide references. Je parle français aussi! Y un poco de español :) I work from home so will be there most of the day to give your pets the company, attention, and care they deserve. I can accept pets for boarding who are able to be on their own or rest quietly while I am in online meetings. My schedule is variable and I can schedule walks/drop ins/care in morning, midday, or evening hours. I have a small backyard and enjoy going to for walks to the nearby parks and trails. I can board small sized dogs in my home.
