About: I love animals and spend a lot of time training, snuggling, brushing, playing with and spoiling my Aussiedoodle with treats. I come with a parent who has had animals her whole life and is very comfortable making sure your pup is well cared for. We have a flexible schedule with afternoon visits being the most convenient, but can be flexible. My 9 year old is keen to come as her first “job” however I work shift work and am available often during the day to fill in any gaps. We are mostly interested in visits to your home for cat or dog sitting. We are happy to provide what is needed based on your animals temperament and needs. Refilling food, snuggles, play, etc. as needed.

About: I grew up dog-sitting for families in my neighborhood and have been around dogs my entire life. Caring for dogs has always been a big part of my life, and I love spending time with dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities. I understand the importance of providing a safe, loving, and reliable environment, and I’ll treat your dog with the same care and attention I would give my own. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine. As a student, I have a flexible schedule and am available Monday through Thursday throughout the summer. I work part-time at a restaurant from Thursday to Sunday, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to caring for pets during the week. I’m happy to provide walks, playtime, companionship, and consistent care to fit your pet’s needs. As I live in an apartment I’m unable to have dogs in my building, but I would be more than happy to come to your home whether it be for a dog walk or dog sitting!

The best part about going out of town is knowing Kristen is watching our 2 cats. She is absolutely amazing! You & your pets will be very happy to see her whenever she stops by. You can tell right away how much she cares about animals and the happiness of her clients. It’s a no brainer, if she is available, book her! If not, change your plans to when she is available!

About: I've loved animals since I was a child! I have extensive experience caring for large dogs and have raised a puppy and supported a terminally ill dog. I am confident in leash control of large dogs that pull, as my own dog is ~100lbs. My Old English Sheepdog is eager for a playmate if your pup is looking to socialize! My schedule is extremely flexible, with my only consistent commitments being early morning Wednesdays and Sundays. I have my own vehicle and am happy to come to you! I have a friendly, playful dog who would LOVE to go for walks with your dog! I will care for your pets as though they are my own with patience, love, and enthusiasm!

Lucy was fantastic with my dog Perla! It was her first time with a sitter, and she can be nervous around new people but Lucy had the magic touch and immediately made Perla feel comfortable. She was very communicative and made me feel reassured that Perla was well taken care of. If you're looking for a trustworthy sitter that's great with pets, Lucy is your girl.

About: I've taken care of animals of all kinds for many years. Friends, family members, and neighbours have always trusted me to walk, feed, and give lots of attention to their pets while they are away. I have trained my own dogs as puppies, and have lots of experience working with with reactive/medically complex dogs. I am currently a full time University student. This leaves me with lots of time in between classes and at the end of the day to spend time with your animals! I prioritize each pet’s safety, comfort, and routine while caring for them in their home. I follow their usual schedule for feeding, walks, and playtime to reduce stress and maintain consistency. I take extra care to ensure their environment remains clean and secure, and I’m experienced in administering medications for pets with medical needs. My goal is to provide attentive, trustworthy care so both pets and owners feel at ease while apart!

Ava was fantastic! She was so easy to book with and accommodating. Nala loved her, and it was clear Ava spent quality time with her. She kept us updated on how Nala was doing and sent some great pictures. Anyone would be lucky to hire Ava to take care of their pets; she deeply cares about animals, and our (grumpy senior cat) Nala can't wait to have her back. Thank you Ava!

About: I grew up with dogs (golden retrievers and a papillon) for 23 years, I love every dog I see, so dog care is definitely my thing. I am very accustomed to all types of dog behaviour, walking, feeding, giving medication, itchy paw care, and all other pet care associated with dogs. I'm a well seasoned dog caretaker and am very familiar with many types of challenges and hyper puppies. I currently do not have a day job, so I am very able to be a hands-on caretaker to your pet. Walking, feeding, and attentiveness are my main priority. The best way to make sure your pets feel safe, trusting, and comfortable is for me to continue on the daily routine they tend to follow. I'm very familiar with having to separate animals in different rooms, gates, stairs, feeding schedules and walking times. The best way I can give the utmost care for your companion is if you tell me exactly what you'd appreciate in terms of caretaking from me and I will make sure I do it exactly how you'd like in a way that is comfortable for you and you pet!

Stacey is wonderful! My very elderly cat was very happy seeing Stacey twice a day and is happy and calm upon my return. Stacey sent me lovely pictures of my cat daily and I felt so confident with her care of my old girl. Stacey was so easy to talk to and her visits were just what was needed. I will definitely call on her again.

We recently got a new puppy and Kendall has been wonderful to work with! Crate training was new to us and she provided helpful guidance that made the process easier. Her communication has been excellent throughout, it's clear she genuinely cares about both pets and their people. We’re incredibly grateful for all she’s done for us and our puppy, Ruby. We would highly recommend Kendall to anyone looking for knowledgeable, supportive help with their dog!
