“Raveen walked Scout for the first time, and I couldn't be happier with the experience! From the moment they met, Scout bonded with her immediately, which says so much because he's usually a great judge of character. Raveen was warm, patient, and clearly has a natural connection with dogs. She kept me updated, took wonderful care of Scout, and made his first week with her completely stress-free. It was obvious that Scout felt comfortable, happy, and well cared for. It's such a relief knowing he's in such capable and caring hands. I highly recommend Raveen to anyone looking for a reliable, kind, and genuinely amazing dog walker. We can't wait for Scout's next walk with her!”

About: 🏳️‍🌈Hi! My name is Lidiane! I'm a loving Pet Sitter and I work from home. I'm a digital nomad with flexible work hours. I've had several cats and dogs over the years. I've been around cats since I was a teenager, and I consider myself to be an expert on all things cat-related. I currently have 1 beautiful caramel named Simba, he leaves with my parents in Brazil. I currently live with one handsome big boy named Squall. I share the responsibility of feeding, walking and general care with my family. Promo code to get $20 off your first booking: LIDIAC12200 Over the years I had experiences taking care of small and medium-sized dogs (up to 65lbs). I've been a pet sitter/house sitter for several pets and I love taking care of both dogs and cats. Like I said, I love being around them and I love learning new things. Let me know if your pet requires any special care regarding its walks, its meals, its dealings with other animals. It's important to me to know what things upset him and what things relax him. I work as a content creator at home. My work hours are very flexible. So, I'm available during weekdays and weekends. Let me know what you need. Promo code to get $20 off your first booking: LIDIAC12200 Every pet is so different, so we can go over your pet particular schedules and routines during our initial complimentary meet & greet, where I'll come to your home to meet you & your pet to ensure we are a good match. I love honoring the trust pet owners have in me when I'm looking after their pet and home. The bond people have with their pets is amazing, and it must be hard to leave someone else in charge. I pride myself on going the extra mile to make sure animals are happy and healthy, and homes are beautifully looked after.

“This was Kane's third walk with Vicky and he was not hesitant when she came into the house. This is a great improvement for Kane, where he now recognizes Vicky and knows they are going out together. They walked over 4kms in an hour. Kane was comfortable with her, she reassured him often if he was nervous about other people or dogs. When back at home, Kane stayed beside Vicky at the door and even leaned into her for a hug and some scratches. He would only do this with someone he fully trusts. Vicky is wonderful with Kane and we are so pleased that he enjoys spending time with her.”

Communication was excellent throughout, he was punctual, courteous, and professional. We were very pleased with the experience and will definitely be using Todd again in the future.

About: We’ve cared for different pets since we were very young, and we’re comfortable handling all kinds of dogs. A lifelong experience observing canine body language helps me understand their needs quickly. We also know how to work with both high-energy puppies and calm, senior dogs. We believe in the importance of daily walks and exercise to keep them balanced, reduce stress, and support their overall well-being. We can take care of dogs during the week, as long as they’re used to being alone since we have a hybrid work schedule. Weekends are also open for me, which means we can spend extra time having fun with them and making sure they’re well cared for. We care for pets in my own home, where we offer a calm and safe environment. We have a small patio where they can relax, and we make sure they always feel comfortable. We also love taking them out for walks or playing with them to keep them happy and engaged.

About: I’m retired and able to offer consistent, reliable care without a rushed schedule. I’ve looked after dogs (under 40 pounds, small to medium) and homes for friends over the years, including travelling to British Columbia for extended house sitting, so I understand the level of trust involved in leaving both your pet and your home in someone else’s care. I also regularly care for pets in my condo building - neighbours trust me with their keys and rely on me to look after their pets, who are comfortable and familiar with me. I’m comfortable with daily walks, feeding routines, and keeping things consistent so pets feel settled while you’re away. I pay attention to behaviour, surroundings, and safety on walks, and I don’t take unnecessary risks. I feel it's very important for dogs to have their walks and daily exercise. I am available to walk dogs up to 40 lbs. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I’m retired, so I have a flexible schedule and can plan my day around walks, visits, and consistent care without rushing. I’m available for morning, midday, and evening walks or check-ins, and I can adjust timing to match your pet’s usual routine. I’m home most of the day, which allows me to provide steady attention and not leave pets alone for long periods. Because I’m not balancing another job, I can be reliable with timing, routines, and communication. I focus on keeping pets comfortable by sticking as closely as possible to their usual routine - walks, feeding times, and any specific instructions you provide. Consistency makes a big difference in reducing stress while you’re away. In your home, I’m respectful of your space and keep things clean and secure. I’m attentive to your pet’s behaviour and surroundings, especially on walks, and I don’t take unnecessary risks. If caring for pets in my home, I provide a calm, safe environment with plenty of attention and regular outdoor time. I don’t overcrowd or take on more pets than I can properly care for. You’ll receive clear updates so you know how your pet is doing.

About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life. My father was a certified breeder. I have a 2 year old Australian Shepherd/Husky. Also, we had a special needs dog who had many issues. I have 13 years of experience with administering medications and insulin via syringe. I’m currently working part time and starting my own business so I’m looking for something to fill the gaps. Filling my time sheet with animals is the best. I have a fenced yard and plenty of space for a dog to run and do their business. Plenty of toys and fun things for them to do.

About: Hi, My name is Angela! I just graduated from the University of Waterloo. I’m a huge animal lover!! I have played hockey for my whole life up until this year so I love to get outside and be active and throw the tennis ball or kick the soccer ball with my sweet doggo! I’ve always grown up surrounded by so many pets which makes me want to pursue being a Vet! I have a dog of my own, London. I’ve volunteered for many shelters and I’ve loved every second of it. I’ve also pet sat for a lot of family and friends when they’ve gone out of town. I couldn’t imagine my life not being surrounded by furry friends so, I can’t wait to meet you and your pet family!

About: I've been surrounded by animals my entire life and caring for pets has always been something I genuinely enjoy, whether it's going for long walks, playing, or simply giving them the attention and affection they deserve. Family and friends have trusted me to care for their dogs and cats while they're away because they know I'm dependable, responsible, and compassionate. I'm currently studying Zoology, where I'm learning about a wide variety of animals and their behaviour, health, and welfare. My passion for animals is what inspired me to pursue this field, and I can't wait to spend my career caring for them. I understand that every pet has their own unique personality and routine, and I always strive to make them feel comfortable, safe, and loved. I treat every pet as if they were my own and take pride in providing reliable, attentive care that gives both pets and their owners peace of mind. My schedule is extremely open and flexible this summer. I’m currently a dancer teacher and in the summer will only be unavailable a few days each month. I’m also captain of my dance team which also only takes up approximately 4 days each month. Therefore i have love of time available to care for your pets :) When caring for pets in a client’s home, my top priorities are safety, trust, and creating a calm, comfortable environment. I follow each pet’s routine closely to help them feel secure and reduce stress while their owner is away. I make sure they are always supervised, properly fed, and have fresh water, clean spaces, and plenty of attention and enrichment. I also take care to respect the client’s home, keeping everything tidy and following any specific instructions carefully. My goal is to build trust with both pets and owners by providing reliable, responsible, and compassionate care that feels as familiar and safe as possible for the pet.
