House Sitting Navan

About: I am from a household of pet lovers - 2 bengal cats, a potcake and a king cavalier. I also previously had a Westie-Maltese mix, giving me experience with dogs of different personalities, energy levels and needs. Through having my own pets, I’m very comfortable with the day-to-day responsibilities of pet care, including feeding, walks, playtime, giving plenty of attention, administering medication, litter care and making sure they feel safe and comfortable. I understand that every pet has their own personality and routine, and I’m happy to follow your instructions closely to make sure they receive the same care they’re used to at home. I genuinely love animals and enjoy getting to know their individual personalities. Whether your pet is energetic and playful, shy and cautious, or just looking for some extra cuddles, I’ll make sure they feel happy, cared for and loved while you’re away! I am a full time masters’ student and working part time as a server. I am looking forward to walking dogs. I also am interested in dog/cat sitting. As a student, my schedule can vary from day to day, which gives me flexibility that may not be available with a typical 9–5 schedule. I’m often available during daytime hours, evenings and other less conventional times depending on my classes and commitments. I’m happy to work with your pet’s routine and find times that are convenient for both you and your furry friend! I will not be offering in house services due to the many pets at my current household. I do want to make any of the animals uncomfortable! I will be offering services at clients houses (pet sitting) and dog walking around the neighbourhoods the animals are comfortable walking in.

“Kartik did a great job house sitting and looking after our pup. We had recently moved and he made due in a less than ideal living situation. We received regular updates and photos to know our girl was doing well. Highly recommended.”

“Our pup loved her time with Mattie. She kept us updated and lots of pictures to keep our mind at peace knowing she was in great care! Tons of outdoor time and she came home exhausted!”

“Paige was so wonderful and kind!! Very communicative with updates and pictures. It was our 1st experience using the Rover company and we were super impressed. Our 2 Doxie's were also very happy to have Paige love and be with them! Thank you Paige!”

“If there was a 10 star rating for the experience working with Mahnaz i would pick without thinking. Mahnaz was so professional , she showed up on time, ready with walking shoes as if she knew how Molly likes walking all day. She approached Molly with full confidence the same time i was worried something would go wrong, yet she had super courage and got Molly to discipline in a moment. It is not easy to take care of a germen Shepard for 2 hours , imagine if it was 8 hours, Mahnaz did what we find very hard to.. I will look to my next visit to Ottawa and no doubt i will make sure to have her taking care of Molly. Thank you.”

““Mya did an amazing job house- and dog-sitting for us for a week! She gave our dogs so much attention, kept us updated throughout, watered our plants, and handled our deliveries. The house was spotless when we returned, and the dogs were incredibly happy. Couldn't ask for a better sitter!"”

“Micheline cared for our senior Shih Tzu at her home for a number of nights. Zellie was very well cared for and she was happy when we picked her up. Micheline is friendly, professional and very caring. She connected with Zellie right away and we are very happy with her obvious love of dogs. She was always easy to reach and communicate with! Many thanks Micheline!”

“Mala is an amazing house and pet sitter😊 My dogs were very well cared for while I was away. Both have minor health issues that Mala addressed beautifully. Mala , clearly, loves animals and I would have no hesitation engaging her in the future. 🙏🏻”

About: What sets me apart is my hands-on experience caring for pets with different needs. I’ve trained my own dog from puppyhood and have experience with feeding, bathing, administering medication, and maintaining routines. I’ve also cared for dogs, cats, and reptiles, including geckos and bearded dragons. Last summer ai worked at a puppy yoga place where I was in charge of supervising 6-10 puppies at a time, cleaning up after them, cuddling and feeding them. I’m patient, attentive, and always treat every pet like my own! As a student, I have evenings, Wednesdays, and weekends available for pet care. This gives me plenty of time to play, walk, and care for your fur baby while fitting naturally into my active lifestyle! I follow your pet’s routine with plenty of love, playtime, walks, feeding, and attention. I can also provide basic training and medication when needed, and I have a small, friendly dog who can join for supervised socialization if you’re comfortable.

“Katryna was a wonderful dog, cat, and house sitter! We were very grateful to have her through an emergency flooding event, where she called in her family to support and managed our neighbours and families coming to help as well. She took wonderful care of our animals during regular circumstances and went above and beyond to support in an emergency. 100% will be hoping to book Katryna again.”

“It was such an easy and fantastic experience with Sabrina! She sent several updates daily, even called with a question. We can absolutely tell that Gio was spoiled to the max and he was looking for her at the door a few times. We came back a spotless house and a very relaxed four legged baby 🥰 Sabrina will most definitely come back as soon as we make new plans!”

Clara D.

“Kerry responded quickly to our request for house and puppy sitting. After an initial meet and greet, we knew we had made a great choice! We had asked Kerry to look after our pup Winston. Winston is not always welcoming to strangers, and it took some time for him to warm up to Kerry. But she was very patient and caring, and her experience with pups won him over! She did everything right when it came to Winston’s care and well being. We got regular updates and pics as well. And, the house was cleaner when we got home than when we left! We would be happy to have Kerry back to look after the house and Winston any time!”

About: I i'm a cat mom of two, my Maverick and Kylo. I also love dogs but not in the cards for me yet since we don't have a backyard. In the meantime I'd love to take care of yours. I always dog sit for my friends and take them for long walks when they're busy. I work as a teacher and taking care of animals is my therapy. I work 9-4 and am free on weekends to take care of your fur babies. I can drop in for cat visits and take your dog out for walks in the neighborhood or even the dog park if that is preferred.

About: I love animals since I was very little I took care of my grandmother's shepherd. now i live with a super friendly french bulldog named drako he is my partner in everything and we love to walk around and meet new friends. I work part time so I have time available to walk your pet in the mornings or after 3pm on weekdays or on weekends I'm free all the time I have a patio but I always prefer to go for a walk and play with your pet in the parks and trails of the city this makes them happier pets love to know new places

“Both our puppies loved Raquel at first sight. Even if it was their first time meeting her they were very relaxed when we came home which for an Aussie and a Cattle dog says a lot! I would recommend Raquel to any pet parents without any hesitation!”

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.

About: I grew up with dogs and have always considered them family. Our first dog, Sasha, was adopted four months before I was born and had significant behavioural needs. She was my best friend for thirteen wonderful years, and caring for her taught me patience, attentiveness, and how important it is to meet each dog where they are. Since then, my family has had two more dogs, and I’ve gained experience caring for seniors, managing specialized diets, preparing food, and handling unexpected veterinary concerns. Our current dog, Zyler, has canine megaesophagus and requires specialized food preparation and feeding techniques. He’s a lot of work, but he’s also the absolute love of my life! I’m comfortable following detailed care instructions and taking the time to make sure each dog feels safe, comfortable, and cared for. I am a full time student. I have 3-5 hours of non-negotiable commitments during the week, but I am a homebody and I can be around constantly outside of synchronous in-person classes. I am free Tuesdays. Saturday’s and Sunday’s without restrictions I care for pets by taking my cues from your animal. Having been a foster volunteer, I am aware of signals and cues and how to respect an animal’s boundaries while caring for their needs. I am the cleanest, most respectful house guest and will leave the place immaculate. I will respect homeowners predefined boundaries while providing as much play and cuddles possible.

About: I’ve been working in the pet industry for several years including, Stores: Petsmart, Ren’s Pets Daycare: Eastway Pet Resort Volunteer: Community Alley Trappers I learnt how to properly handle animals with all sorts of needs including, - Feeding needs - Medication - Physical care - Training - Animal indicators and communication - And handling if they have any sort of mental illness (Anxiety, depression, Obsessive- Compulsive Disorder, PTSD, Epilepsy etc…) If you do have any pets with any sort of issue, even ones that may have not been listed. Please feel free to communicate and confirm with me in any specific service you lovely furry friend might need! But most importantly you might be asking, other than my experience. What would set me apart from the rest of these sitters. All sitters are very different in their own way by the way they approach and they take care of animals, how they feel and love about them. For me. It’s not just about what the owner wants, but also for what the pet needs… I want your pet friends to wanna feel comfortable enough to ask you. I want Reegan back around… an animal that is always loved, accepted, acknowledged and appreciated will always be happy to close their eyes at night, and be thankful for the life they were given. I have lots of time after school since I don’t have a busy schedule. Weekends, I’m usually always free to help out whenever is needed :) I can provide trust and safety to your pets needs in your own home in anyway possible. I can provide training. Monitoring. Able to go out whenever your dog needs and whatever other safety protection you might need!

“Kate did a great job taking care of my cats! She followed all the care instructions perfectly, made sure they got their medicine, and was super friendly and polite.”

“Elise is so sweet, she sends updates and has the support of her family to love our pets. My kitten and dog come home happy and with zero signs of stress. That alone makes for the best experience. Thank you Elise and family!”
