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.

About: Hi I’m Jennah, I am a huge animal lover and have had dogs all my life. I have experience with different breeds, sizes, energy levels and needs. I treat every dog like my own. I’m patient, dependable, and really pay attention to each dog’s routine and personality. I’m comfortable with puppies and senior dogs, including gentle training reinforcement and extra care when needed, so your dog feels safe and happy while you’re away. I work from home most of the time and love going for walks. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine. I’m home often and plan my schedule around the dogs I’m caring for, making sure they get consistent attention, walks, playtime, and companionship throughout the day. I treat every pet like they’re my own. I follow their routine closely, keep their space calm and clean, and always prioritize safety, comfort, and trust—especially in a new environment. I try to keep them as comfortable as possible.

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: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 10 years old. I’ve walked dogs from small to large and from friendly to reactive. I went to Seneca college for Veterinary assistant where I learned to care for all animals including dogs, cats, hamsters, mice, and rats. I’ve worked at both vet clinics and doggie daycares. At the doggie daycare I learned how to identify certain dog behaviour and how to handle breeds from small to large. My own dog was rescued and dealt with a lot of anxiety. After training she is now a fully off leash and care free dog. I’m currently working full time as a kennel attendant. I don’t have a set schedule but I can make time during the week for all your needs. I’m available weekdays depending on when I work and i’m available weekends also depending on when I work. I have a fenced in yard and a friendly dog to keep your dog company. If you prefer your dog not to interact with mine I can easily crate her. I also can crate your dog if you’d like to as well.

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 went to college for Veterinary Assisting in 2019, and have had various experiences. I've worked in Vet clinics and hospitals and frequently pet sit for friends and family. I have a huge love of animals of every kind! From the furry, to the scaly, and even the feathered! I have experience working with animals from all stages of life, as well as furry friends with specialized diets. Put your faith in me and you won't be disappointed! I am currently working a job that involves me being there 5 days a week 12:30-6, but are able to make morning visits, evening visits and even overnight if needed. Weekends are completely available to me and can take time off for your furry friends if needed. This is dependent on the species, breed and what their specific needs are. For example, in college, I owned 2 rats who needed consistent enrichment activities, regular baths and grooming, as well as all the love and snuggles they wanted! They both lived 2 very long happy lives up until and even past their life expectancy. I now own a large and thriving aquarium which I love and adore.

Melanie was great! She was prompt, very neat and very caring the whole time she took care of our pet and the house as well. We would gladly use your/her services again. As our cat Sophie is 18+ we can't go away as often as we would like but we do have tentative plans in the summer.

About: I can’t imagine my home without a dog. My dog family member is a lovely 4 year old spayed Bernadoodle. She is very gentle and likes to play. I have lovingly trained her to be obedient. My previous rescues have included rescuing a 13 year old pregnant Pekingese, I was lucky to have 8 years with her before she died. I recently lost my shihpoo, he lived until 18 years old. I am experienced with all stages of a puppy’s life from helping a dog give birth to the last stages of life I am a retiree and on typical day I take my dog for a walk for a 45 minute walk and then playing fetch for 15 mins. If I do go out it is just to run errands. My dog is never left alone for more than 2 hours. In the evening, we walk for about 30-45 minutes depending on the weather. During the day, I let her out in the backyard if she wants out I have a fenced yard and a gentle dog, that can keep your dog company. I can also crate your dog if that is your preference

About: I have over 10 years of experience caring for dogs of different breeds and personalities. I’ve raised my own Siberian Husky for 11 years, and I also have hands-on experience with a German Shepherd for 5 years and a Shiba Inu for 8 years. I truly love animals and treat every pet like my own. I’m comfortable with daily walks, feeding, playtime, basic care, and giving extra attention to senior dogs or energetic breeds. I’m patient, responsible, and always focused on keeping pets safe, happy, and well cared for while their owners are away. I’m currently in between jobs and actively looking for new opportunities, which means I have a very flexible schedule and plenty of time to care for and play with dogs. My parents-in-law recently took my dog back to Calgary, so I truly miss spending time with dogs and would love to have dogs around again. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, and longer stays, and I can adjust my schedule to meet your dog’s needs. I have a house with a yard and a dog-friendly environment that’s clean, safe, and comfortable. I have plenty of dog food and supplies at home, and my space is best suited for well-trained dogs. I always prioritize safety, follow owners’ instructions carefully, and make sure every dog feels relaxed, secure, and well cared for in my home.

About: I started working with small animals in high school as a vet assistant, then loved them so much I went to school for animal biology. I gained valuable knowledge working in a fast paced veterinary referral hospital for 8 years. I've medicated seniors, walked dogs and house sat for all variety of clients in the past. Now I'm a busy mom of 2 human babies + 1 furbaby, and a shift-worker, who would love to meet your fur babies! I am a full time shift worker. My kids are in daycare full time so my schedule is busy but flexible. Available week days between 930 and 330. Given that I only offer drop-in visits and/or walks at this time, I will only be in your home for a short period of time. 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: Hi! I’ve been caring for cats for over 4 years and have two of my own—an 11-year-old with asthma who needs daily inhaler treatments, and a playful 4-year-old. I truly love cats and have started taking pet care courses to deepen my knowledge. I work from home with a flexible schedule, so I’m available for twice-a-day visits or in-home boarding. If your cat stays with me, I can provide a separate, quiet space just for them to feel safe and comfortable. Your cat will be cared for with love and attention every step of the way. In my home, I provide a safe, quiet space where your cat can feel comfortable and stress-free. I follow their usual routine as closely as possible, including feeding times, playtime, and any special care like medications. If your cat prefers solitude or needs time to adjust, I respect their pace and provide a separate, calm area away from other pets. When caring for cats in their own home, I stick closely to your instructions—feeding, litter box cleaning, play, and any medications or special needs. I always give updates with photos so you can feel at ease while you’re away. My goal is to make sure your cat feels secure, cared for, and loved.

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.

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.

He was very communicative and sent a bunch of photos and a video which showed that our dogs were very happy to spend time with him. Everything was great! He's very knowledgable about dogs and we trust him to look after our dogs.
