Pet Sitting in Keswick

“After 7 days, the cat scolded me at the door for being away but appeared fine otherwise. After a recent health scare, I was worried he'd be traumatized - not the case. Expecting him to demand food I was surprised that he ignored a small offering and focused on cuddling like the old guy I'd left. I would not hesitate to use Samantha in the future especially since she'd managed his meds effectively.”

“Allison was great with my 10 year old Mastiff Xena. She listened to her needs, gave her the love she required and left her happy and tired. Thank You Allison! We can’t wait for our next drop in visit!”

About: Dogs have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I can provide the exercise, outdoor play, couch cuddles and care that will ensure your dog will enjoy their time away from home. I am home full time for the next few months. I like to take the dogs for 3 walks per day. I have a fenced yard and plenty of toys and treats to care for your dog. I have a 4 year old goldendoodle who loves everyone and everything! I can take him to my parents house if your pup prefers to be king or queen of the house! I have experience in wound care, administering oral and injection medication and can create a calm and peaceful environment if that suits your needs.

I currently work am a stay at home mom with a 13 month old,I'll be able to work a couple times a week not everyday.

“Lee Anne was awesome ! She was sure to give me updates and photos which put my mind at ease!! She did all that was asked( feed kitty, fill his water, change the litter and keep him company). My cat normally takes a bit to warm up with people but, with Lee Anne, it was automatic. Im sure he was sooooo happy to have her check in on him. I know I was certainly happy I went with her. Thanks so much !!”

About: I’ve had pets for most of my life and truly can’t imagine my world without them. I’ve cared for both dogs and cats over the years, each with their own personalities, routines, and needs, and I genuinely enjoy getting to know what makes each pet feel comfortable and happy. I currently share my life with my dog, Tilly — a Great Pyrenees / American Pit Bull mix and proud rescue. She’s a big sweetheart with lots of energy, but also an expert couch cuddler. Caring for her has given me hands-on experience with large breeds, strong dogs, and the balance between exercise, structure, and calm downtime. I also regularly take care of friends’ pets, whether that means walks, feeding, check-ins, or simply spending time with them so they feel safe and relaxed while their people are away. I’m attentive, patient, and respectful of each pet’s routine, and I treat every animal in my care as if they were my own. I work on a handmade business from home so I spend lots of time with pets. My business is also inspired by the pets in my life. I have a fenced yard and a friendly dog that would love to play with your pup. I also have a large crate if necessary.

About: I have had dogs both big and small my whole life, therefore I know how to handle a range of breeds. I completed a Master’s degree in Animal Welfare and Behaviour back home in Ireland and then moved out here to work in a wildlife refuge. I love all animals and have a lot of experience working with various species. I am happy to go on long walks/runs, make food, bathe and clean up after your pet. I work either a morning shift or an evening shift 5 days a week. This does involve early mornings and late nights sometimes, but I can confirm based on request how my schedule looks whether I am free all day, just the evening or just the morning. I have great appreciate for all animals and I value them greatly. I am happy to cater to specific needs of your dog. I regularly give medications to animals at work and am happy to do this for your pet also. I know how to handle dogs of all sizes as I have had various dogs throughout my life. I have also had troublesome shelter dogs that I learnt how to handle correctly and cater to their needs.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs for most of my life! Family and friends have trusted me to look after their dogs in many cases! I’m always very reliable! I currently work part time and have a very flexible schedule to do both walks during the day and in the evening, as well as drop in visits I take my dogs on daily walks for about 30-60 minutes, I have treats and lots of toys for them! I prioritize the animals needs and ensure they are cared for to the fullest extent.

About: I am a very patient, caring person and treat all animals like family. I have experience with both cats and dogs and got along very well. I trained both of my cats to listen and they are very friendly. I have been a dogsitter and had a great time. I trained the puppy to heel, listen to the signals, and when and where to take his business outside. I am an active person. I like to stay active by going to the gym or jogging. Doing pet sitting will not only align with my personal goal but also with my passion for working with pets. As my schedule this semester is more flexible, I would love to do more pet care as my fun side hustle! I am a very respectful person. I will always ask for permission for everything that I might need access to before using or accessing the item/room. I will ensure that the client and I are on the same page before accepting the request.

About: 🐾 Hi, I’m Donna! I provide a safe, loving, family-style home for your dog while you’re away. I’ve been caring for dogs for over 10 years and grew up in a home full of dogs and cats. As a stay-at-home mom, I’m able to offer personalized attention and a consistent routine throughout the day. My goal is for your dog to feel comfortable, relaxed, and truly at home during their stay. 🏡 About My Home I live in a quiet, dog-friendly neighbourhood with plenty of walking trails, green space, and parks nearby. Dogs in my care enjoy daily walks, outdoor potty breaks, playtime, and lots of companionship. I keep my bookings limited so each dog receives the attention, supervision, and care they deserve. Dogs may relax on the couch, sleep on their own bed, or use a crate if preferred. 👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 Family Environment My home includes four young children (ages 1–6), so all dogs staying with me must be friendly, gentle, and comfortable around children. My kids are respectful and have grown up around animals. 🐶 Good Fit for My Home My home is often the best fit for dogs who: • Are comfortable in a family environment • Can settle indoors and sleep through the night • Are comfortable with outdoor leashed potty breaks or established indoor potty routines such as pee pads. I have an unfenced yard where dogs must be leashed (I typically go on two leashed neighbourhood walks a day, morning and afternoon) Please let me know if your dog has any special routines, anxiety, sleeping preferences, or unique potty habits so I can make sure we’re the right fit for each other. ✨ Experience With • Puppies • Senior dogs • High-energy dogs • Anxious dogs • Small, medium, and large breeds I follow each dog’s normal routine as closely as possible and treat every dog in my care like part of the family. I’d love to meet you and your pup! 💛 I build my schedule around the pets in my care. I am home all the time and I stick to whatever the pet needs in my care. I focus on creating a safe and family style environment where they can feel comfortable. I follow each dog’s normal routine as closely as possible. When visiting clients home, I ensure a follow instructions provided by the client. Providing the utmost care for those times where you can’t be there.

“Cerena took great care of my two senior cats. She was reliable and flexible.”

About: I have experience handling dogs of all shapes and sizes, with mild to severe behavioural issues, medical needs, disabilities and more! I am comfortable handling dogs with a bite history, resource guarding, separation anxiety, hyperactivity and any other challenges that make them unique. I started caring for dogs with behavioural needs when my fiancé and I rescued our own dog with a complicated past that presented many challenging behaviours. While we learned how to handle our dog, we knew very few people would be willing to take on the challenge if we ever wanted to go away. After a three-year break from vacationing, we successfully found a sitter to fit all of our dog’s needs and after that I knew I had to help people in the same situation. My goal is to allow my clients to feel comfortable leaving their fur kids at home with someone who cares about them just as much as they do and without worrying if their behavioural issues will be a deal-breaker. Trust me, there isn’t much I haven’t seen! I leave for work early, and get home early. I only work Monday to Thursday. Most days I’ll be home by 2:30-3:00pm. Weekends are pretty open and I am very flexible to accommodate busy schedules! I currently do not offer any boarding services, as my own rescue dogs are not very welcoming to house guests. However, I am more than happy to drop-in to homes or spend the night if that would make your fur kids more comfortable.

About: Experienced and compassionate animal service sitter providing reliable care, companionship, and exercise for pets while you're away. Tailored services to keep your pets happy and safe.

They will have my full attention in to be safe and happy 😊

About: I’ve been training dogs since 2017, and along the way my clients noticed how loving and dedicated I was with their pups so they started asking me to take care of them too! I’ve done daycare, overnight stays, even cared for pups for weeks or months while families traveled, always making sure they felt safe, loved and happy. I’ve got lots of experience with puppies and senior dogs. I’m patient, attentive, and treat them like family. Friends even ask me to save a spot for their furry babies! Plus my 4-year-old daughter Mia absolutely adores them and loves helping me care for our furry guests! With us your pup won’t just be cared for, they’ll feel right at home. 🐾💛 I’m home full-time, so I’m available every day, all day! That means your furry friend will never be alone. They will have company, attention, playtime, and lots of love all day long. 😊 I make sure every pet feels part of the family while they’re here. Whether it’s cuddle time, play breaks, or just keeping them comfortable and happy, I’ve got them covered.🥰 At my place your pet will feel right at home! I live in a house with a fenced yard where they can run, play or even relax and get some fresh air (always supervised, of course!). Whether your pet stays with me or I visit your home, I always make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and loved. I adapt to their needs, routines, and energy levels.

About: I have spent my life with my dogs, playing, taking care of and walking them. I have had dogs from puppies to seniors and have experience fostering both dogs and cats! I currently work part-time and am a student home for the summer, so I will have plenty availability to care for and play with your pup! I love animals and ensure I make time in my life to spend with them! I will lovingly care for your cherished pet in your home so you can have peace of mind when you are away. I am a trustworthy student available all summer long to support your pet in the comfort of their own home.

About: I am a responsible and caring individual with 7+ years of dog sitting experience, and in addition to that, I have a 9 year old Vizsla, who is goofy and sweet. Although I have more experience with larger dogs, I have dog sat and taken care of many smaller breeds, such as a Teacup Yorkshire Terrier, Shitzu, Pug, and Bichon Frise. I have been around animals my whole life, taking care of neighbour's dogs and family/friend's pets. I have owned cats, parrots, guinea pigs, rabbits, and hedgehogs, so I have a range of diversity when it comes to experience. I know that pet owners want to make sure they are leaving their loved one with someone who will take good care of them. As a pet parent, I understand the concern of meeting a random person to take care of your pet(s), and I think that meet and greets are great prior to the requested arrangements. 😊I promise that your pet will be comfortable and that all their needs are met during our time together! I look forward to hearing from you. I am currently a full-time college student so I will be available mostly weekends only. I may accept mid-week calls if I am able to. I always make sure that the pets needs are met, ie, they have fresh water, have been played with or walked, have eaten (if applicable), have gotten their medications (if applicable), and gotten lots of love/attention. I am a recent college graduate so I am available at anytime for drop in visits, house sitting and walks. I have an open schedule and availability. Unfortunately, I do not currently provide boarding (caring for pets in my home) at this time. I offer house-sitting in client's homes where I will make sure that all of their needs are met, and they are in their most comfortable environment.
