About: Offering Long & Short Term Boarding for small dogs under 10-15lbs, or other small pets. I can travel often if of benefit, to care for in home pets or barn animals while you are away. Why Choose Us? Inspired by my fur baby, Spy, and many others before her, Laurel and her family established a Dog Sitting Service For Your Pet to provide a service that is dedicated to the health and well-being of pets. After 20+ years of running a sign business, I've retired and can offer full-time services. I want to enjoy the company of animals, nature and help you give your pet a great life, even if it's just for a day. I decided to apply my knowledge, experience, and passion for animals to create a complete solution for local pet parents; one that offers peace of mind knowing that their four-legged companions are blissfully content and safe, offering you and your pets an experience that not only promotes your pet's well-being, but also enriches the bond you and I share with them. I am on the way to Bruce Power off 33, about 6 minutes from the plant. We can service clients going past in any direction daily for your convenience. Over night & weekends upon availability. Pets will need their certificate of vaccinations, flea and tick prevention to qualify. Enjopure home ~ Natural treats Inquiries: If no one can get to the phone, leave a detailed message, contacts will be returned daily. Our weekly routine is generally the same here, up by 7am and down around 9pm. We walk early in the morning and afternoons. Evening walks are mostly during summer days as there are no street lamps. Your pup will be welcomed by everyone. We are a family of dog lovers going way back. Initial visit to become acquainted is encouraged. Let’s meet up first.

“Absolutely adored having Leah and Stephen watch our Ginny girl! It was very short notice due to an emergency and also her first time away from the family and I couldn’t have asked for anyone better. Thank you so much!”

About: I am an avid animal lover who will care your fur baby as if mine. I believe in the symbiosis between animals and humans and strive to make these contacts positive experiences for both. I offer a loving home on a country property, away from the hustle and bustle of city life. If you have farm pets needing care, I may be able to help here too. I will offer your pet a positive experience and peace of mind for you while your pet is in my care. Feel free to contact me to meet prior to booking with me. I am always open to meeting new people and sharing pet experiences and ideas about offering the best possible care to four legged family members. I’m currently retired and fortunate to have a flexible schedule. I am home most days and having a fully fenced yard makes potty breaks a breeze. I have two small adult dogs who will keep your dog company while you are away. I am available all day long to keep a close eye on dog play and interactions.

“Maureen was awesome to work with! She was very accommodating at pick up and drop off, and even drove out of her way to pick up our pet when we were in a bind! She sent photos and was very communicative. Would recommend!”

Mira O.

“Jess took AMAZING car of our big boy Bruce! She sent photos and videos, Bruce was exhausted from all the fun he had. Jess’s beautiful girl Kali was a great companion for Bruce too! We will definitely be using Jess again! Thank you!”

About: I am currently taking the dog training course. I am 31. I live in an apartment. I have 1 puppy. I am a psw and care aid. And I’ve decided to become a trainer, groomer, sitter and dog walker. I am outgoing and bubbly and I always love to help out and I would love the experience to help you out with your pets. I spend most of my day with my puppies and I’m outside a lot. I train them most of my day and spend time with them Until they fall asleep. I have full time availability. I always have my pets On a leash when outside. I also take them for lots of walks and I go to the dog park a lot.

About: We had two dogs, chocolate lab (7 years) and lab/shep mix (16 years). We miss them both terribly but are not yet ready to fill the void of their losses. We are a family with 2 children (11 & 14) who are very familiar with looking after animals. We love cuddles and outdoors and have I’ll provide lots of love and exercise while you are away. We will only take animals when we can be home with them. We will accept care that goes with our work schedules to allow someone to be with the pet in our care. We have lots of space to make your pet comfortable. We will take them outside leashed as needed, and for walks. We are not comfortable allowing any animals in our care roam free and will request a leash. We also have a fenced area of yard for outside time as needed, but will still be accompanied/ supervised.

About: I’m a devoted cat mom who truly believes cats are family. My own two, Ollie (10) and June (8), have taught me everything I know. I’ve had Ollie since he was just 7 weeks old, and we’ve been through it all together, including a major bladder surgery a few months ago. That experience made me a pro at administering oral medications, monitoring recovery, and sticking to strict prescription diets. My girl June was adopted at 4 months from a very difficult home. Working with her taught me the "long game" of winning over a shy or fearful cat. I know how to respect a kitty’s space while slowly building the trust they need to feel safe. What sets me apart: Medical Experience: Comfortable with oral meds and specific dietary requirements (thanks to Ollie!). The "Shy Cat" Whisperer: Patient with rescues or anxious cats who need time to warm up (thanks to June!). High Standards: I’m a stickler for fresh water, tidy litter boxes, and of course, plenty of high-quality photo updates. Genuine Love: I treat every cat with the same deep love and respect I give my own two at home.

“Kate was organized, had great communication, very friendly and reliable. She took great care of my two cats.”

About: With over 20 years of dog sitting experience, I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes, ages, and personalities—from energetic puppies to gentle seniors. My experience includes daily walks, feeding, medication administration, basic training reinforcement, playtime, and plenty of one-on-one attention. I understand canine behavior and body language, allowing me to create a calm, safe, and happy environment for every dog. Dependable, patient, and loving, I treat each dog as if they were my own—because they deserve nothing less. Dog sitting and dog walking are a seamless part of my daily life, not a side job. My days are built around consistent schedules, regular walks, feeding times, play, and companionship, making it easy to give each dog the attention and structure they need. Daily walks aren’t rushed—they’re a chance for exercise, enrichment, and connection. Because caring for dogs is woven into my routine, they receive reliable, calm, and attentive care that feels familiar and stress-free. For me, it’s simply how I live—sharing my days with dogs and making sure they’re happy, safe, and well cared for. I care for dogs in their own homes to keep their routines consistent and stress-free. I follow each dog’s normal schedule for feeding, walks, playtime, and rest, paying close attention to their individual needs and personalities. Daily walks are tailored to energy level and age, and I provide companionship, enrichment, and calm supervision throughout the visit. I also handle medication if needed, maintain food and water areas, clean up after walks, and keep the home tidy. By caring for dogs in familiar surroundings, I help them feel secure, comfortable, and well loved while their owners are away.
