House Sitting Lanark Highlands

About: I'm 22, I've had animals my entire existence including reptiles. I live on 4 acres of mostly fenced in yard for your babies to run around. I'm flexible on anything you need for your babies. (And I can babysit your reptiles) I currently have no job but I'm looking for a part-time so I can continue to focus on meeting all sorts of new animals that need somewhere to snooze and play. I have a mostly fenced yard, three doggos that are super friendly to everything. I have experience with vet medicine and crate training. I have LOTS of safe dog toys that need to be played with.

About: Hi I'm Victoria! Owner of VC'S Pet Services I have years of experience looking after beloved pets in professional kennel and pet care settings and strive to fulfill animals physical, and mental needs. Everything I do is out of respect for the animals I care for and the people who know them best. I am Canine CPR and First Aid certified, insured, and have extensive knowledge in animal behaviour. Your pets personal space will be respected, while ensuring their every need is fulfilled. While working in pet care facilities, I realized that they are not for everyone. Whether your pet has separation anxiety, can react when overwhelmed, doesn't like other animals, doesn't travel well, or simply prefers spending their time at home while your away, I will insure that their routine stays the same and that they are happy and content. Whether you are gone for a day, or a week, I will provide you and your beloved pets with professional services that will put everyone at ease. I can't wait to learn more about your pet! This is my full time business! I am available for Walks, Drop in Visits, and Overnight Visits whenever it suits your schedule. I provide pet services in Carleton Place, Almonte, Perth, and everywhere in between! I can assure you that I will provide the safest environment possible for your pets. Dogs will be kept on leash at all times when outside of their home or fenced yard. I have a great deal of experience administering medications, noticing differences in behaviour and health, and am detail oriented. I pay close attention to instructions and will take all safety measures possible to keep everyone safe.

“Meaghan was a wonderful sitter. She was very communicative and kept us up to date with what was going on in our home and with our pets. I would absolutely use Meaghan again.”

“I just can’t say enough amazing things about Jenna!! She took care of our two dogs so we could attend a wedding and I just couldn’t be happier with how everything went!! She was quick to respond to messages, asked great questions, came to meet my dogs, was super knowledgeable, very caring and literally the list could go on!! I felt 100% great about leaving my dogs with Jenna and she also left my house absolutely perfect!! Can’t say enough great things about Jenna. I will definately ask for her again!! 😁🐾🐾”

“Emily was very communicative and shared lots of pictures which we loved. She also took our energetic dogs for nice long walks every day and played with them outside. Our home was left clean and tidy, we would use her house sitting services again for sure.”

“Amanda was a phenomenal caretaker of our pets! She loved them like her own and they loved her. She was kind, thoughtful and reliable. We received a number of timely updates while away and felt super comforted knowing she was just a call away. We’re so grateful to have found Amanda and look forward to having her back again!”

About: Ive taken care of dogs on and off for 7 years along with my own. I can administer medication, play, walk, feed and enjoy the company of a mans best friend. I do pet care every day because i have a dog and cat of my own. Im a university student and work part time. Im only in class for the morning on Tuesdays and all day on Thursdays. My work is usually only 4-6 hours in the winter and more busy in the summer. I’m a very patient person and wont rush your furry friend(s) or force them to do anything that they dont want to in a hostile manner. I take care of their needs when they are shown to me by our friends and if they want their space or want to be close i can do either. Ill play some nice gentle music for them and check in on them regularly, maybe have a conversation with them too

“Camryn is a lovely person who clearly loves animals. She is an excellent communicator and always responds quickly. We have her booked for another weekend later this month.”

“Melanie stayed at my home for 2 weeks to take care of my cat Angel. I have to say that she was absolutely wonderful. My cat was very comfortable with Melanie and she took fantastic care of her. She left my home spotless, the way I left it. I have never had such a marvelous sitter. I would absolutely book Melanie again. Melanie went above and beyond and took loads of pictures of Angel as the progression of my cat's trust became greater. If you want the greatest sitter book Melanie P. Once again Thank You, thank you to Melanie!!”

About: A lifetime of animal love has led me to care for pets of all kinds. I have experience with cats and dogs mostly, but also small animals like bunnies and guinea pigs. I also have experience with scheduled feedings and oral mediation and I also have a Pet First-Aid Certification. I have high attention to detail and consideration for pets personalities or needs. Getting to know your pet is crucial to our success. Looking forward to adventures with furry friends! I have two cats at home, and I look forward to meeting more furry friends! My schedule is very flexible and can work around custom requests. I love to help others know that their pets are in good hands while they are away. Caring for animals brings me joy, and it makes me feel right at home!

“Lisa is incredible! This was our first time using a service for our dog, so it was a difficult decision to have some new watch our do, and spend the time doing it from our home. While Lisa stayed at our home, we agreed for her to bring her dog as well, who played with ours all the time and is such a good boy. So kind, easy going, friendly and playful. She took our dog for walks, drives, to see Christmas lights, to her animal sanctuary, all with advance permission of course. She communicates all the time, sent pictures, videos and comments about the fun he is having, keeping me always in the loop. When we arrived home, our house was in perfect condition. I actually wondered if it was cleaner then we had left it! :) I highly recommend Lisa, without a doubt. She is so kind, friendly, and so lovely. We will definitely be hiring her again and plan on hopefully setting up play dates with her dog and ours as well. Thank you so very much Lisa!”

About: What sets me apart is my genuine love for animals and my ability to tailor to each pet’s unique personality and needs. The animals care is my top priority Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine. I’m able to plan my days around pets’ needs, making sure walks, feeding, playtime, and check-ins are consistent and never rushed. I enjoy building my schedule in a way that keeps pets comfortable, calm, and well cared for. I provide personalized in-home pet care, including daily walks and attentive care for both cats and dogs, ensuring they feel comfortable and loved while in my care.

“Inci is awesome. She communicated before, during and after the visit, sent lots of pictures. My dog got lots of loving from Inci and her fiancé. My home Was left spotless. All the dishes were done and away, the linens were washed and folded. She even cleaned up what I refer to as “messy corner”(that place where I just drop stuff until I have a chance to organize it). We will definitely be using Inci again. Thank you Inci.”

“Laura and Nelly were amazing with our pets while we were away! I was so nervous to leave them, as one of our dogs has epilepsy, and it is the first time we’ve travelled since he’s been having symptoms. Although he did have an episode while we were gone, Laura and Nelly handled it like experts, and kept me informed and calm the entire time. I cannot thank them enough!! I would never hesitate to request their service again, and highly recommend them to others!!”

“Julia took excellent care of my two dogs, provided updates and came for a house visit a few days before the booking to meet with me and the animals. Highly recommend:)”
