Dog Sitting Lake Country

About: We had a beautiful Golden Retriever 2013-2025 who went everywhere with me and was never left alone. I loved being with him, caring for him and other friends pets, walking, brushing, veterinary drop offs and collections as well as caring for elderly dogs too. I love all dogs. Will be with the dogs all day in my home and we have beautiful trails right at our doorstep for quick walks or longer hikes. Happy to be slower if dogs are older or small or longer if they have lots of energy. I work from home so pets would never be left alone, I have set up my work to fit in with caring for our own pet as a priority. Have looked after our own dog and walked 4-5 times daily with shorter potty breaks and longer excercise trips for 12 years. I have no fenced yard but have a provincial park and walking trails directly at my door so walking is never a problem. My own golden retriever will go outside for a variety of mini walks and a longer walk daily or we can take the car to other parks if requested.

“This is not the first time that we ask Kristi to look after our two cats. She is very thoughtful, responsible, loves pets and we are cannot be more happy that we found Kristi!”

About: My daughter and I love Dogs, but we arnt allowed anymore. We have been fostering and puppy sitting for 8 years now. Love every minute of it. I work from home and spend very little time at my desk. This leaves me lots of time for walks, puppy parks, beach and cuddles. We do not have a fenced yard but a gated patio area. We also love trips to the park or a walk around the neighbourhood.

About: I grew up on a hobby farm and have spent my entire life caring for animals of all kinds. I'm comfortable and confident with dogs of every size, with extensive experience handling large breeds and bully breeds. I understand the importance of consistency and can reinforce your dog's existing training, routines, and boundaries while they're in my care. Whether your dog loves long hikes, trail runs, games of fetch, or simply enjoys plenty of attention and affection, I tailor my care to their individual needs. As someone who is physically active, I'm well equipped to provide the exercise and enrichment that high-energy dogs require, while ensuring they feel safe, happy, and well cared for. My goal is to give every pet a fun, enriching, and nurturing experience so you can have complete peace of mind while you're away. Available weekends at any time for walks, drop-ins, and pet care. I provide reliable, attentive care with plenty of time for exercise, enrichment, and companionship. I believe every pet deserves to feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I treat every dog in my care as if they were my own, taking the time to understand their personality, routines, and individual needs. I provide a safe, positive environment with plenty of attention, exercise, enrichment, and affection. I’m confident handling dogs of all sizes, including large breeds and bully breeds, and I’m happy to maintain the training, boundaries, and routines you’ve established. My goal is to give your dog the same care, patience, and respect I would want for my own.

About: I've had experience caring for many pets, including cats, dogs, rabbits, reptiles, and birds. I've also cared for several pets of my own, so I'm used to feeding schedules, playtime, grooming, and giving lots of love! I can adapt to each animals personality and requirements. I treat every pet like they're my own and always make sure they're well looked after! I am currently working part-time and will be starting an online course through TRU in September, which gives me a very flexible schedule for pet care! I am able to easily work pet care into my daily/weekly routine and can be flexible with walks, drop-ins, and overnight care. I stick to each pets usual routine as much as possible so they feel comfortable and at ease. I follow all care instructions provided, including feeding schedules, medications if needed, walks, potty breaks, and any other specific needs depending on the pet. My biggest priority is that your pets are happy and cared for in their own environment while also being respectful and mindful of your home and belongings. I'm always happy to send regular updates and photos so you feel reassured that your pets are doing well!

About: Dogs have been part of my life since I was a baby. If I could have a farm full of dogs, I would have it! Give me dogs over people any day. But I promise to still be awesome with you to make sure you are comfortable with me caring for your pup. I’m experienced with dogs who are still figuring out the leash world, senior dogs, jumpy dogs, pretty much all dogs! If your pup sleeps on the bed with you, they can sleep on the bed with me. Dogs are allowed couch cuddles in our household, but if that’s a no-no in your home, we will enforce that rule here too. Medications needed? I got you. I work from home and choose my hours so I have total flexibility to help care for your beloved pet while you’re away! Weekends are totally free for endless animal care. Morning or evening drop ins to feed and cuddle your cats. Or feed your fish, birds, Guinea pigs, bunnies, etc. I can clean cages and litter boxes so your pet has a clean space always. I can even clean your fish tank if needed! The way I care for your pets is to ask you how you want them cared for and I will do exactly that (and maybe a bit more because I can’t help myself sometimes). I want your pets to not be stressed because you’re gone. I want them to feel comfortable and happy. Your pets are a part of your family and because of that, they hold the utmost importance to me when they are in my care.

About: Hi, I’m Holly! I’ve been surrounded by animals all my life, and my love for them runs deep. Over the years, I’ve studied and learned about animal behaviors, which has shaped my compassionate and sensitive approach to their care. A special rescue dog taught me so much about understanding animals, reinforcing my belief in the power of positive reinforcement—because it truly works. With hands-on experience from working in a doggy daycare, I’ve interacted with dogs of all sizes, temperaments, and energy levels, making me well-equipped to provide individualized care. As an ultra runner, I have the stamina and energy to take your pets on frequent long walks or runs, customized to their specific needs. Whether your pet enjoys a relaxed stroll or an energetic run, I’ll ensure they get the perfect balance of exercise, along with plenty of attention and affection. I’m committed to treating your pets like family, respecting your preferences, and providing regular updates and photos so you can feel connected and reassured while you’re away. Your pet’s happiness and well-being are my top priorities, and I’m here to give them the love and care they deserve. I currently work remotely and have lots of flexibility to care for your pet, including taking them for frequent walks and runs. I’m also available on weekends and holidays. I have experience working with animals and provide compassionate, attentive care. I prioritize your pet’s well-being and take a positive, personalized approach to meet their individual needs. Your dog will receive plenty of love, attention, and exercise to ensure they feel happy and secure.

“We booked Tyra to pop in once a day to check on our cats. She was reliable, stopping in each day around the same time. She also sent us pictures of her time with our one cat who loves attention, which assured us her attendance and gave us the opportunity to see our sweet fur babies who we were missing. Also, Tyra was sweet and personable when we met her. We hope to book her again :)”
