Rocco seemed to have a great time. You can really tell Gina loves animals. We will definitely bring him by the next time we’re in town. Thanks so much for having him over.

Jessica was great with Roxie. She got exercise and I felt comfortable leaving her there due to Jessica’s knowledge of dog behaviour. We will definitely use her again.

About: Hi Friends! Iv had pets and animal my entire life. Cats, Dogs, hamspers, chickens, goats, you name it. My heart is wrapped around all animals.. and of course my three year old. I'm very trusting, loving and positive Gal. Will treat all animals like my own and keep very safe! I'm a stay at home mom so with my girl Dixie 80% of the day! She likes to go out on her own in the morning and roam our 2 Acres of land. Even though she is completely off leash trained I respect alot of animal are not. Leasing will be no issues! I live right next to a large lake for puppies swims! Also on a large rail bed (not used) for walking Purpos. Also a nature trail at our local park around the corner! Dixie gets breakfast and supper meals. However your pups need to he fed will be just fine! Where I'm home all day all my attention is on my animals & course my son when not in daycare ! 2 acres of running space, large home, lake outback ! Our property is perfect for dogs! And anyone really :) Very far off the road, we have a long driveway! Newly built 2 years ago, with that said only have ever had 1 tick on my dog so fingers crossed we are in a good location!

About: I had a 10 year old Sheltie who passed away on December 27th 2024. Since then we have added a puppy to our home. It would be nice to have a playmate for her during the day. I would love to continue dog sitting for those who need a sitter during the day or on specific weekends. I have cat as well who gets along with dogs. I work from home every day and will be able to take your dog for walks throughout the day. A small to medium size dog is preferable with a mild temperament. I’m available to dog sit anytime during the week between 7 am and 7 pm. A drop off between these time is preferable along with a meal if required. Treats are provided . 😀 I live in a townhouse with a small backyard however I do 2 walks for at least 20 minutes each walk. To keep an eye on your dog I will be on the same floor of the house during sitting hours.

Pam sent me a pic to update me of my boys playing with her westies. Looked like they were having a blast. They were so tuckered out that actually slept in the morning after. I will definitely ask Pam to care for them again.

Being a dog mom it was a big step trusting someone to look after Solo however Ben gave frequent updates through video and pictures which meant the world and put my mind at rest. Ben is very loving and caring towards my dog and would recommend him to others looking for someone yo care for their dog.

Gavin and Alex were so easy to deal with and took great care of my little Sammy. Their communication was quick and they kept me updated on how he was doing with them. They clearly love animals as Sammy took to them quickly! The second day he was jumping at their door to get in! 5 star service for sure. I would not hesitate to book with them again!

About: I’ve loved animals from a young age and have hands-on experience caring for a variety of pets, including a puppy, several cats, and even fish both as a child and as an adult. This has helped me understand the different needs and behaviors of animals—from energetic dogs to independent cats and the consistency required for maintaining a healthy aquarium. What sets me apart is that I genuinely enjoy spending time with pets and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. I’m patient with puppies and can help reinforce basic routines, and I’m equally comfortable with cats, respecting their space while still giving them attention and care. My experience with fish has also made me detail-oriented when it comes to feeding schedules, cleanliness, and maintaining a stable environment—skills that carry over into all types of pet care. I’m reliable, attentive, and committed to following each pet’s routine closely. I also keep owners updated so they have peace of mind knowing their pets are in good hands. I treat every pet like family and focus on creating a stress-free, happy environment for them. Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine because I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and make it a priority in my schedule. I plan my day to ensure I have dedicated time for feeding, walks, playtime, and general care, so pets receive consistent attention and are never rushed. I’m comfortable incorporating morning and evening routines, as well as check-ins during the day if needed. Whether it’s taking dogs out for walks, spending time playing, or ensuring cats and other pets are fed and comfortable, I make sure their routine is followed closely. I treat pet care as an important and enjoyable part of my routine, not just an extra task. I provide a safe, calm, and pet-friendly environment in my home where pets can feel comfortable and well cared for. I make sure they have a dedicated space to rest, access to fresh water, and a consistent routine for feeding, playtime, and relaxation. I take time to understand each pet’s habits and preferences so I can follow their normal routine as closely as possible. For dogs, this includes regular walks, playtime, and attention. For cats, I ensure a quiet, comfortable space while also giving them interaction on their terms. I’m also experienced in caring for fish, maintaining feeding schedules and a clean, stable environment. Pets are always supervised, and I focus on creating a stress-free atmosphere where they feel safe and at ease. I keep the home clean and organized and provide updates to owners so they know their pets are happy and in good hands. Overall, I treat every pet like family and make sure they receive consistent care, attention, and comfort throughout their stay.

About: I've owned and cared for dogs throughout my life, and am currently the proud owner of an 8-year-old beagle, Stella. She's very friendly with lots of friends and playmates, so our home is well adapted to four-legged visitors and guests :) I'm a freelance translator who works from home, with a flexible schedule and generally light workload, leaving me plenty of time to look after other dogs besides my own, including long walks and fun outings to the park. I have a great set-up to board dogs in my home: I live with my dog (8-y.o.) and cat (10-y.o.) in a bright, clean suite with a nice balcony in a very pet-friendly apartment complex in the North End of Halifax. There's a semi-private courtyard out front where dogs like to congregate and socialize, I'm in a very walkable neighborhood close to downtown, the Commons and the waterfront, and I have a safe, reliable car that I use to take my dog and others on fun outings to the park (Point Pleasant Park is a favorite destination). In addition, I'm certified in Pet First Aid by St. John Ambulance (Oct. 29, 2023 - certificate available for viewing in photos).

We were very nervous about leaving our 11 week old puppy for the 1st time with a sitter. I am so happy that we found Sara, she was great with our pup, and we left there feeling very secure with our choice. She sent us an update picture and little note that Maddie had done her business had a drink and was having a great time finding sticks in her garden. Maddie was a happy puppy when we picked her up. I would not hesitate to book with Sara again.
