House Sitting Keswick

About: I am an experienced pet caregiver. I've handled dozens of dogs of all temperaments. Shy or nervous rescue dogs are no problem! I have done some dog rehabilitation with behavioral issues and some light training as well as regular walking and am now taking clients within 25 km of Jackson's Point. I can handle any dog big or small, high energy, timid, low energy, giant breeds, counter surfers, etc... I never stop learning about pets so you can rest assured knowing you have one of the best looking after your pets. I have a wealth of knowledge & experience to ensure the best possible experience. I have open availability every Wednesday, as well as alternating weekends. Exceptions can certainly be made for overnight stays, please reach out with details if that is what you need! During the day your pets will get as much playtime as they prefer and the weather will allow. I'm an early riser, and the first thing I do is take the dogs outside. I keep a watchful eye on them to eliminate as much of a chance as possible for escaping, getting into things they shouldn't, etc... While also making sure they are fulfilled mentally and physically each day. I go above and beyond to make sure every dog enjoys their time in the safest possible manner. I aim to understand their nature and fulfill their needs. I currently have open availability on Wednesdays, as well as every other weekend! Exceptions can certainly be made for overnight stays - please reach out with details if that's something you need! Your furry family member's safety is my priority! I will always do my utmost to protect every pet under my care. Safety and happiness are the top priorities.

“Ashley was an amazing dog and cat sitter. My dog is special needs with his disease and has high anxiety but she made him feel safe. I will be using her services again. I have never left my baby with a sitter before and she made me feel comfortable with great communication and pics of my boy through out the day. I was thrilled with the level of care and attention she gave him and was able to give him meds right on time!”

“Bozhena is, hands down, the best sitters we've ever had. She's stayed in our home multiple times now, and every single time we come back to a happy pets and a spotless house. What stands out most is her communication — daily photo updates without us even having to ask, so we never spend a trip wondering how things are going back home. She's punctual, trustworthy, and treats our space with genuine respect. Booking her is one less thing we ever have to worry about when we travel.”

Alexandra K.

“Laura (and her partner, Nick) took wonderful care of my anxious dog, Luna. Laura provided daily updates, administered Luna’s anxiety medication, and carefully followed the routines and protocols we have in place for her separation anxiety. It gave me great peace of mind knowing Luna was well cared for and genuinely loved. Luna enjoys spending time with Laura and Nick whenever I’m away. I highly recommend Laura to anyone looking for a caring, reliable dog sitter, especially if you have an anxious pup!”

“Christina was great. You could tell how comfortable my dog was around her from the start. Great communication and took the time to learn his routine. Will definitely book with her again.”

Karen K.

“Such a lovely caring person. When searching through the Rover site it was difficult to pick who we wanted as we’ve never used this site and I must say we picked the right person. We have two cats and my oldest is 14 very timid and took to Solana right away. Thank you Solana for your loving care and all your wonderful updates while we were on vacation. We were blessed to have you and so were Karl & Oliver. Definitely recommend this lovely girl. Thank you Jim & Christine.”

“Will is an amazing sitter! Very communicative, sent texts and photos every day, and took very good care of our cat while we were away. Our very shy and timid cat Peanut loved him and was in very good spirits when we returned from our trip! Will also cared for our home while we were away and kept it very clean and tidy.”

“We had to leave 15 year old fur baby for 3 weeks and we left him in Michelle's care. She followed all our notes that we had left and was proactive in letting us know how he was doing. Michelle took not only took care of our furbaby, but our plants and our home very well. Happy to have Michelle look after our guy anytime!”

Sujatha G.

“Selena was great! She kept us well informed throughout her stay with Margot, also being proactive in her communication when it seemed Margot wasn’t feeling 100%. Selena also left our house in amazing shape upon leaving!”

Caitlin R.

“Highly recommend Andrea! We left our 14 year old Cockapoo for a week to attend a family wedding in Portugal. As this was the first time we had ever left her with a non-family member, we were apprehensive. We had three practice sessions before the week away. I felt confident leaving our dog in her care, in our home. While we were away Andrea sent us pictures and let us know how everything was going. She is very honest and seems to understand what a dog needs. If we have another opportunity to go away I will definitely call Andrea.”

Jocelyn J.

“Another successful pet and house sitting with Mark! Stella and Ben clearly enjoy their time with Mark and are well cared for during our time away. Mark's regular "pupdates" give us peace of mind and many smiles. We are already planning our next trip with confidence. Thanks Mark! Two high energy golden retrievers can be a handful!”

Cynthia C.

“Stephanie did a great job of looking after our fur babies Kona and Sapporo. They were both happy and comfortable with her. She quickly recognized that Kona's chronic respiratory problem was flaring up and got him to the vet quickly for treatment and was able to give him insulin injections twice a day. We definitely recommend her especially if you have pets with special needs.”

About: With 5+ years in veterinary medicine primarily in fast-paced emergency settings I provide a refined standard of pet care grounded in clinical knowledge, calm handling, and close attention to detail. I have a particular interest in caring for senior pets and extra-large breeds, with an understanding of their unique needs. I hold a background in Animal Behaviour and currently work remotely in tech, allowing me to offer reliable, full-day presence and attentive supervision. Having cared for dogs, cats, and horses throughout my life, I deliver personalized care tailored to each pet ensuring their comfort, safety, and your complete peace of mind. Working full-time in a remote tech role while pursuing a computer science degree gives me a uniquely flexible and reliable schedule. Being home throughout the day allows me to provide consistent supervision, regular walks, timely feedings, and close attention to each pet’s needs. My work setup is structured yet adaptable, so I can easily accommodate routines, medications, and extra care without disruption. This balance of professional discipline and at-home availability ensures pets receive steady companionship, attentive care, and a calm, stable environment. Safety, trust, and a comfortable environment are the foundation of how I care for pets. With my veterinary background, I’m used to noticing small changes early and making sure pets are always safe and well looked after. I stick closely to their normal routines to help them feel relaxed and secure, and I keep their space clean, calm, and free of anything risky. I also believe in clear communication and treating every home and pet as if they were my own, so you can feel confident they’re in good hands while you’re away.

“Kayla took excellent care of our dog Emma and our three chickens while we were away. She was also a great guest in our home and left everything clean and tidy. She’s very responsive and easy to work with - we would definitely recommend her and look forward to having her dog/house sit again 😊.”

Charlotte C.

“Lisa is just AMAZING, AMAZING, AMAZING. She took care of my dog at my place for a full week and my dog was so well taken care of... when I came back he was healthy and happy and hadn't missed love for sure as Lisa completely showered him with love and attention. Lisa is also very professional and 100% trustworthy. I highly recommend her.”

“Zarina was absolutely amazing, I cannot recommend her enough! She is a lovely person who took incredible care of our two dogs while we were away. She cared for their unique and individual needs, she played with them, walked them and cuddled with them! Her great communication and photos put our hearts at ease so we could enjoy being away visiting family without worry. We can't thank her enough for the love she gave our two dogs! We will be reaching out again with any of our future puppy needs ♥️”

Lara P.

“Chellan was an absolute dream of a catsitter! They kept my place tidy, responded to my (admittedly disjointed) pre-trip messages, and sent me lots of pics of the cat playing and being happily adored while I was gone. I came home to a very happy kitty :) thank you again Chellan! 10/10 do recommend”

About: I’m a compassionate and experienced dog caregiver with over 15 years of hands-on experience caring for my own beloved pug through every stage of her life. In her senior years, I provided consistent medical and mobility care, including administering medications, ear and eye drops, using inhalers, assisting with post-surgery recovery and wound care, and offering gentle joint massage to support her comfort and movement. That experience taught me how important patience, routine, and close observation are - especially for senior dogs or those with special needs. I understand that every dog is unique, and I take the time to learn their habits, energy levels, and cues so they feel safe, calm, and well cared for in my presence. I’m happy to offer boarding, house sitting, and dog walks. Whether your dog enjoys quiet companionship, short and gentle walks, or simply needs someone attentive and reliable to maintain their routine, I provide care that’s calm, loving, and dependable. I’m especially comfortable caring for senior dogs, dogs recovering from illness or surgery, and pets who need medications or extra support. Your dog will be treated with the same respect, patience, and affection I gave my own - because I know they’re not just pets, they’re family. I work from home in my own business, which gives me excellent flexibility and allows me to be home most of the day. This means dogs in my care receive frequent attention, supervision, and companionship, with plenty of flexibility for walks, feeding schedules, medications, and individual needs. My home is calm and comfortable, with full attention for your dog. I live in a main-level condo with direct street access, making walks and potty breaks easy - perfect for senior or mobility-challenged dogs. Your dog’s routine, meals, treats, and water are followed carefully. I’m located across from a park, nearby scenic walking routes, abundant green spaces, and a fenced dog park - providing plenty of safe outdoor time and play.
