About: I provide attentive one-on-one care, ensuring your dog receives not only exercise and fresh water, but also mental enrichment, affection, and genuine companionship. By taking the time to build trust and understand each pet, I create a safe, engaging, and stress-free experience that leaves dogs feeling fulfilled and pet parents confident knowing their furry family member is receiving exceptional care. 🐾✨ Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. I structure my schedule around the pets in my care, ensuring they receive consistent attention, exercise, potty breaks, feeding, and companionship throughout the day. Whether it’s morning walks, midday check-ins, playtime, or evening care, I make sure each pet’s individual needs and routine are prioritized. On a weekly basis, I dedicate time to longer adventures, enrichment activities, grooming maintenance, and providing updates to pet parents. Caring for animals isn’t just something I do—it’s something I genuinely enjoy and make a priority in my everyday life. 🐾✨ I provide attentive, personalized care in my clients’ homes by following each pet’s regular routine. This includes walks, potty breaks, fresh water, feeding if needed, playtime, enrichment activities, and plenty of affection. I ensure pets feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for while their owners are away, and I keep clients updated with photos and messages if wanted/requested.

About: I used to volunteer at the OSPCA and worked with the small animals, cats, and dogs there for about 2 years. I also did my co-op for highschool at a doggy daycare for about 7 months. On top of which I’ve been caring for almost 2 or more dogs for most of my life. I have a part time job but I have lots of time to spend with your animals when I’m not working. I typically work 3-4 shifts a week that can range from 6-8 hours. But other than that I love spending time with the animals I look after. I tend to work with dogs in their own home as it is an environment they feel safest in. I provide them engagement by playing with your animal and providing stimulating tasks. I also enjoy a good dog snuggle.

About: I’ve cared for cats and dogs of different temperaments — from playful puppies to independent indoor cats. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet. I treat every animal as if they were my own — with patience, attentiveness, and respect for their routine. Whether it’s keeping a cat’s environment clean and calm, or giving a dog the exercise and engagement they need, I focus on creating a safe and happy experience while you’re away. I also provide updates and photos, so you’ll always know your pet is in good hands. I’m a freelancer with flexible schedules that can accommodate your needs! I’m currently open for weekday bookings and have a flexible schedule during the week. I’m happy to work around your pet’s routine to keep things as normal and stress-free as possible. When caring for pets in your home, I follow your instructions closely and respect your space at all times. I ensure doors and windows are secure, maintain your pet’s routine, and keep feeding and litter areas clean and tidy. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my priority, and I provide updates so you can feel at ease while you’re away.

Amanda did a great job checking in on our three cats while we were away. She even made friends with our cat Mallow, who is very shy and normally hides from strangers. She was responsive, booked on short notice, and sent many happy pictures of the kitties. Will absolutely book with her again.

About: At this time, I will only be accepting one dog at a time. I do have a resident dog in my home, but she is very low maintenance. That means your dog will get my (almost!) undivided attention. I have lots of experience with taking care of dogs of all backgrounds from fostering and dogsitting, including puppies. I'm very in tune with the needs of dogs. I have taken care of dogs of all sizes, from 10 pounds to 50 pounds. I love sending lots of pictures and videos throughout the day (although I am not a professional photographer!) to give the owners updates. I work from home so I'm able to keep my eye on your dog all day and would be very attuned to what they need. I am currently working from home, so I will have lots of time for your furry children. I have a fenced backyard and would be able to take the dogs out for potty breaks during the day. I have a fenced yard and my own dog of 5 years. I have doggie gates in my house to separate if needed, and can put my dog in another part of the household or crate her, if needed.

About: I have grown up with family dogs my whole life & miss having one around the house! Most of my experience is with large dog's (Retrievers and Labradors), however, I’m just as comfortable with any size /breed. Whether your dog is full of energy or more laid back I’m happy to take them along with me for some good exercise! I promise to treat your dog as my own and to respect their habits/pace and attitude. I am available Monday through Friday between 7am and 5pm. I can also be free for periodic weekend walks upon request. I am generally flexible! At this time I am only accepting dog walking services. My promise is to follow the boundaries & routines you may have set for your animal

If you could leave me written instructions how best to care for your pet, then I can leave you messages as I leave as well. 😊

About: I’ve always been the go-to pet sitter for family and friends, earning their trust to care for their beloved animals. I spent a month living with my sister’s Mini Pinscher and Bedlington Terrier, gaining experience managing their high-energy routines, including daily walks and consistent feeding schedules. I had experience in a year-long boarding of a tabby cat for a friend, mastering feline care and basic grooming. I can’t wait to meet more furry friends and give them the love and attention they deserve! I provide services in English, Cantonese, Mandarin, and those secret languages only the little cuties understand. I work from home two days a week and am usually home during weekends, giving me plenty of flexibility to dedicate to caring for your pets. Walks, play sessions and cuddles could be tailored to your needs. While I have more availability on these days, I’m also happy to accommodate weekday requests to meet your schedule. I closely follow any feeding, medication, or exercise routines you provide to ensure continuity in their care. I’m more than happy to provide updates and photos to reassure you that your furry friend is happy, safe, and loved while you’re away. For cat boarding, I'm living in a house with a fenced yard by myself. The house is quiet all the time. For house sitting, I'll treat your place with respect, ensuring everything is left clean and tidy.

About: **First time clients get $20 OFF on their first booking!** Code: BRITTM21964 A bit about me! Hey, I'm Britt! I love and care a lot about animals and dogs. I have experience walking dogs (my own dog for 6 years) and I have fostered 2 other dogs. I also worked at a dog ranch/kennel so I know and understand dog behaviour and body language. We own a mature and friendly chocolate labradoodle who is currently 6 years old. She is friendly, loves dogs and people, and is very well trained. We also have two cats - onyx and stevie! Walking dogs is already a part of my daily routine! I love being outside and in nature! Your dog and I can enjoy some fresh air and exercise together! Britt is offering dog walks and drop ins! Adrianna has taken on more full time work so we no longer offer boarding or doggy day care in our home. Dog walks are 30 minutes, on leash and in your neighbourhood! Britt will only take one dog at a time unless it’s 2 dogs from the same household.

Ariel is wonderful! Our shepherd pup Gus can be a bit aloof and unsure of new people but he has warmed to Ariel quickly and has a blast when she stops in for his pee & plays whilst we are at work! She’s great at following specific schedule needs and is considerate of our home too 💕 Would highly recommend

Deborah was absolutely amazing with Ernie(our St.Bernard/Poodle). She came and met him and was gentle and soft spoken and only took a few minutes to see the connections. She communicated extremely well, and sent pictures and video updates while caring for Ernie, which was amazing. Ernie seemed to be very happy and we would definitely be calling on Deborah in the future.
