Pet Sitting Leamington

“I was very pleased with the service provided. This was my first time hiring someone to look after my girls and Carol made it very easy. She met me and my cats before the days needed, so she could meet my girls and take notes. I would definitely book her again.”

About: I’m a pet care professional who’s passionate about giving your animals the best possible care. Having spent years working in shelters, I’ve had the pleasure of caring for pets of all shapes and sizes. I’m here to help with your dogs and cats of any age, size, breed or special needs, even if they have behavioural issues! I understand that being apart can be tough for both you and your pet. I’m committed to keeping your pets happy by giving them regular exercise, fun activities and sticking to their routine as much as I can. I’m also here to ease any worries you might have by providing the best care to keep your pet safe and happy, and I’ll communicate with you as much or as little as you’d like. Special Skills/Experience: *Clicker training *Well versed in animal body language *Nail trims/light grooming *Allergies/special diets *Senior care *House training *Behavioural concerns - reactivity, flight risk, bite risk, resource guarding, etc. Certifications: Fear Free Shelter Program Canine Foundations - Canine 101 & Canine Self Defense I currently have lots of availability for sitting and walking! I keep my calendar updated regularly and am happy to take 'last minute' bookings when possible. Safety of your pet, myself, and others is of utmost importance. I will use containment and training methods that you are comfortable with or already using with your pet.

About: I grew up on a farm and raised every type of animal you can imagine Ole MacDonald had! That included various sizes and breeds of cats and dogs as well. Often I would take one of the larger farm animals, train it and then leash it so I could walk it around the farm as though it was a puppy I was training! In terms of what I can offer to you as a sitter and what I believe sets me apart is my genuine curiosity about what makes your pet tick and what their emotions are. I care about their big picture. It's not just about going to your house and then feeding/watering/walking. It's about time spent with your pet so I can let you know that all seems well with them, in their time of missing you. I do short notice and can easily do last minute house checks or pet visits without much notice as well. I hope to be adding occasional doggy daycare as well and that too, can include short notice. I am trustworthy and you can count on me to be your righthand, if something needs your attention or calls you out of town. My main work focus is pet care so there is often availability. I've finished up my main career and now, am semi-retired and lucky enough to get to do what I love and that is pets and adventures. So don't hesitate if you need help quickly. I'm there for it. The best compliment I have ever received upon the arrival home of a repeat client was when she said, "The best part about entrusting our pets with you (6 cats and a large dog) is that when we walk through the door (I am gone by then as per their wishes) no one comes running to the door to see if it's us, because with you here, they didn't even know we were missing." I will admit, that felt great because if it were my pet, I would constantly fear that they were pining away for me and frankly, that thought would detract from my vacation. With petsitting in your home or even drop-in visits, your directive is key. I will follow your instructions to a T so that you don't have to worry and so your pets have the least amount of stress, in your absence, as possible. I will ask for written instructions so there is no confusion. I will be as communicative as you desire. That could mean a pic and a note every day or no communication period. Whatever works best for you. If house-sitting, rest assured you can have full trust in my ability not only to maintain your house and pets but also to manage any issues/emergencies you may have. I've often babysat sump pumps and waatched temperatures for freezing conditions so as to switch thermostats from heat pump to furnace. Any little tidbit I can help with, I'm there.

About: I have loved dogs forever. As a teenager, I dogsat for all my neighbours. From a bull mastiff to a Yorkshire terrier, I will walk, play, feed, and clean after your fur child. I currently work a 9-5 office job, with part-time work from home. No problems walking your dog while you make your family dinner. I am free anytime to dog sit. I am a hands on person, so your fur baby will never be alone outside. Ready, willing, and able to follow your dog’s preferred schedule!

I walk daily and play frisbee and ball w my dog Hank Summer fun w kiddee pool in my completely fenced yard. Beach time as well My friendly dog Hank is always up for doggie play dates Fun is always on the agenda We find the Greenway a great walking trail

“Very thankful to have someone who understands the bully breed so well take care of my older bulldog. Understanding the mentality of a bulldog is really important to be able to take care of my big guy because he really is his breed through and through. Stubborn but sweet. Loved the picture updates and look forward to hiring Erika again.”

About: I grew up surrounded by animals, so caring for them has always been natural to me. In Canada, I’ve provided in-home boarding, overnight stays at clients’ homes, and drop-in visits for feeding and walks. I’m attentive, responsible, and truly enjoy spending quality time with pets, making sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while their owners are away. I am based in Leamington. For overnight stays, location within nearby areas (Windsor, Kingsville, Chatham, etc.) is not a problem — I can pick up and drop off your dog, or you’re welcome to bring them to me. My availability is primarily focused on overnight care. On weekdays, I am out from 7:30 AM to 5:30 PM. However, I work just 2 minutes from home and can stop by during the day for two breaks — one 1-hour visit and one 30-minute visit. Some clients provide a camera for monitoring, which I’m happy to install so I can keep an eye on your pet while at work. If I notice anything unusual, I can quickly go home to check without any issue. On weekends, I am usually home. I may step out briefly for groceries or a workout (typically no more than 2 hours at a time). For non-overnight services (feeding and walks), availability depends on location and number of visits needed. • In Leamington or within 20 minutes, I can visit twice daily (morning and evening). • For locations 45–50 minutes away (Windsor, Chatham, etc.), weekday visits are available after 5:30 PM, and weekends allow for more flexibility and multiple visits. I live in a small, cozy apartment, which creates a calm and intimate environment where dogs can feel safe and comfortable. Because I live alone, your pet receives my full attention and care. As long as they are clean and well-groomed, they’re welcome to join me on the couch — and even sleep in the bed if that’s part of their usual routine. I always prioritize maintaining their normal habits to help them feel secure and at home.

Unfortunately right now I can't board pets in my home, but in your home I will ensure to take care of your pets as they're my own! I can crate them as needed and adapt to your pets routines!

About: Leaving your pet with someone new is a big decision. My goal is to make it easy by providing dependable care, regular updates, and a safe space with a fully fenced yard where your pet can relax, play, and feel at home. 🐶Reliable & Routine-Focused I stick to your pet’s normal schedule, keeping their days familiar, comfortable, and stress-free. 🏡 Plenty of Love & Attention In home all day, so your pet gets companionship, playtime, cuddles, and care, not just quick drop-ins. 🩺 Extra Care Comfortable caring for senior pets, puppies, and animals who need extra patience, medication, or a little extra TLC. *note that extra charges may apply 📸 Updates You’ll Love Enjoy regular photos, and messages, plus quick communication so you always know how your fur baby is doing. 💛 A Calm, Safe Home Your pet will be treated like family in a peaceful, loving environment where they can relax, feel secure, and truly enjoy their stay. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine — Im home during the day, and always ready for walk breaks, playtime, and check-ins. Your pet gets consistent attention, plenty of affection, and a calm, reliable presence they can count on. I’m pretty flexible and will do my best to accommodate those last minute requests. 🐾 I live in a home with a fully fenced in yard in the heart of Walkerville. It’s a very safe neighborhood with lots of scenic roads perfect for daily walks. I have a cat and a dog myself , so I could only accommodate up to 3 additional pets at a time.

Your quick responses and updates put my mind at ease during Bentley's first time away from us. We look forward to many more visits!”

“Melissa was great with my two cats! She knows how to deal with cats, she is loving and caring, gave them lots of attention and play time. She also made sure they were eating and drinking, shes reliable and kept me posted on how things were. That allowed me to enjoy my time away a lot more, knowing I didn't need to worry about my furry babies and that they were in good hands.”
