“Kobi got some much-needed play time and I love that I know he'll be safe with Nelaida and Katie. Pick up and drop off work quick and easy love receiving pictures and updates on what he's doing and how he is. TYSM❤️”
“SO insanely thankful for Gabrielle! She's the first person I've let watch my dog's, and I couldn't be happier. She gave me plenty of updates , kept the ladies busy / enriched. And ultimately tired them out for pick up! I cannot thank Gabrielle enough. I highly recommend her. And will be hiring her again to watch my dogs in the future.”
“Tammy is an amazing dog sitter!! She is sweet and accommodating and was so great about sending us lots of pictures of our pup. Our dog Clifford felt at home right away! We will definitely send our pup here any time we go away.”
“Amanda and her family were amazing with Maya. She became one of the family from taking piano lessons, enjoying story time and walks with the family. Maya loves children and Amanda has 2 of the sweetest. Her time with them has left her sleeping for a couple of days and a little sad missing them. They gave her all the attention she loves. Amanda kept me updated daily and followed Maya’s daily routine. I was nervous in the beginning leaving Maya with someone new but was immediately calmed by the love shown to her. Thank you Amanda”
“Charlee and Max stayed with Arshpreet and her family for 2 days, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience. We received regular updates throughout their stay, including photos, which gave us great peace of mind. It was clear our dogs were in good, trustworthy care. Highly recommend & will certainly book again.”
“Ayssa always send me pictures about my puppy and she is so nice that can accept him for extension time as I couldn't pick him on original booked time. I believe he must had a really good time with all her family member as he still look as much as happy before. Thank you so much!”
About: Hey there! I’m Deanna — animal lover, treat‑giver, walk‑enthusiast, and certified “yes I talk to pets like they’re tiny hairy humans” person. 😄 I’ve had animals my whole life and have looked after pets with all sorts of medical needs. Giving meds? No problem. Special routines? I’m on it. Noticing when your pet is acting a little off? It’s basically my superpower. I’ve raised two puppies from 9 weeks old, so I know all about zoomies, chaos, snuggles, and the “why are you chewing that??” moments. I also adore senior pets — slow walks, soft voices, and gentle care are my jam. I’m pretty active, so if your dog wants adventures, I’m ready. If they prefer couch hangs and snacks… honestly, same. I work part‑time, which means I’ve got flexible availability on weekdays + weekends. I’m also open to overnight stays and weekend pet‑sitting if you need a little getaway. At home I’ve got two cats who are very chill with dogs as long as the dogs aren’t plotting to chase them. For everyone’s safety, I do ask that visiting pets are up to date on flea and tick prevention — gotta keep my furry roommates itch‑free. Your pet will be loved, spoiled, and treated like family. Can’t wait to meet your furry sidekick! 🐶🐱💛 I am currently working part time and have open hours to support your pet(s) weekdays and weekends. I am open to over night stays and weekend work. I have 2 cats who are okay with dogs as long as they don't have a prey drive and chase. I would require the pets coming in to have updated flea and tick to protect my babies.
“Emily, her partner and Pippy were super welcoming to Reed last weekend! I got updates twice a day with pictures of Reed looking happy and cozy. They seemed lovely and were very accommodating. Will definitely rebook in the future! Thanks again!”
“Aleksandra took great care of Fiona during her weekend stay. She was responsive and flexible with pickup and drop-off times, and I could tell Fiona had been well looked after. Her calm and steady energy created a peaceful environment, which Fiona definitely appreciated. Thank you again for hosting her!”
“Carli got back to us right away, was available at short notice, and sent photos during our dog's stay with her. Her and her family took good care of our dog and he enjoyed his stay with them.”
About: I grew up taking care of animals, inclusive of dogs, cats and goats. I have an affinity with animals and truly enjoy spending time with them. In particular, dogs mean a great deal to me and because I do not have children, dogs have become the object of my love and care and have given that back to me. I have rescued a great deal of domestic and wild animals (raccoons, opossums and a number of birds). I regularly volunteer at the Quinte Humane Society as well. My most recent sits have included large properties in Prince Edward County and Marysville and surrounding areas, with both small dogs, large dogs and multiple pets. I have also taken care of an 80 acre goat farm in Owen Sound for three weeks, taking care of the house and grounds as well. I can also take care of your plants inside and out, garbage and recycling, and am open to other duties that can be discussed at the time of a meet and greet. I always have a meet and greet at least 2 weeks (whenever possible) before my sit, so you can feel comfortable with me, my two little dogs that come with me, and your pets can feel comfortable too! I am a traveler as well and know how important it is to leave one's pet in exceptional care when one is away. I will not only show love and affection to your pet; but as a teacher I value the safety, care and protection of other people's cherished possessions. I have two years experience dog walking, including rescue dogs, as well. Your dogs will be cared for and loved in your own home or in mine, if that is something you choose. I do have two small, (under 6 pounds) female Morkies who will be in my home or coming with me, so your pet will need to be okay in the company of two well behaved, but fun loving dogs. RATE BREAKDOWN: HOUSE/PET SITTING (in your home): $75/24 HOURS for 1st pet $25/24 HOURS for any additional pet PET BOARDING: $65/24 HOURS for 1st pet $35/24 HOURS for any additional pet PET DAYCARE: $50/8 HOURS (Times are flexible - Mon - Fri Only) I am only taking house/pet sitting jobs that are a minimum of 2 nights at this time. I am retired I am very flexible in terms of hours/length of time that I can spend with your pet(s) and in your home. I am home often during the evenings and weekends, working on my latest novel and will, like your pet, need breaks to walk, exercise and play with them. I have had dogs all of my life and as a teacher, I am someone who prepares and proactively thinks about the safety and protection of my pets, and this would be the case with yours as well.
About: Hi, I’m Jess! I have 9.5 years of professional dog care experience, including daycares, structured on-leash group walks, off-leash park play, boarding, and housesitting. Raised on a farm, I’ve been surrounded by animals my whole life and share my home with two resident cats. I am incredibly comfortable with all breeds, sizes, ages, and temperaments, from puppies and seniors to special needs. I'm trained in dog reactivity, certified in Pet First Aid, and experienced in administering medications, shots, and flea treatments. I live in a large apartment and typically host a single dog, but I’m open to caring for multiples from the same family if they get along well (complete with a complimentary trial). I always prefer a meet-and-greet first to ensure a perfect fit! I am just a 5 minute walk from a beautiful, very large off-leash dog park that features both an enclosed area and an additional section for pups who need a bit more focused attention.As well as, Delhi Park, Macaulay Mountain or Millenium Trail for hikes. I would love to meet you and your furry friend. I'm available via text or email anytime, so please don't hesitate to reach out with any questions! I am in transition as I just moved back home from Toronto, to Picton. I have full availability, and very capable of meeting your needs to provide the best care. I live with cats, and only take a client at a time, unless further analysis has been done to see compatability. This is for the safety of your pets, and to be leaning on a cautious side.
“Zoe was absolutely fantastic! I was very nervous to leave my 3 furry sons, but she constantly reassured me everything would be fine, and sent me pictures and updates daily. When I saw how much fun my sons were having, I felt much more calm. She set everything up for them in her lovely home, and cared so well for them. I absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a critter sitter.”
“Deanna & Scott did a great job caring for my dog while I was away for 10 days. They sent me lots of pictures and were always easy to talk to. I had no worries while I was away which made my trip much more enjoyable.”

About: I have already babysat numerous cats. From feeding to cleaning litter boxes and everything in between. I can only sit cats in your own home due to allergies and very fragile artwork around the home, but I promise to give them much love and affection.
“Would absolutely book again. Kayleigh was very informative about our cats - their behaviour, habits, energy levels, etc. - through descriptions and pictures, which gave us a lot of comfort being away from them for so long.”

“Kelly understood and took care of an elderly cat’s needs so well, including lots of medications. She sent lovely updates and photos so I got to see just how happy Mr Mae was. She was kind, professional and an all-round pleasure. Thanks so much Kelly!”
“Thomas did an great job with our cat Rosie. I really felt like she was loved while there. The house itself was also spacious so she had lots of space to roam. Rosie has medical issues and so needs meds at very specific times of day and Thomas made sure to let us know that she got them. I would definitely have him cat-sit for is again 😊”

“We were heading to Sandbanks provincial park beach for the day and Zoe took Oreo last minute for us so we could explore the beaches better - she was amazing with him! Thank you Zoe! Highly recommend this pup sitter.”
About: It all started with rabbits when I was a 4 year old. My dad bred them and we had well over 60 at one point. I had a pair of baby ducks when I was 8 years old. Then along came my budgie when I was 10. I have a lifelong experience of caring for many different types of pets. In the past I have had rabbits, ducks, a budgie, cockatiels, finches, rats, and aquariums. I took riding lessons as a teen and worked on the horse farm to pay for my lessons. I also have experience with exotic animals as I worked for a short time in a zoo. I have owned 5 dogs. A Husky (who lived to 15), an Australian Shepherd (who passed at age 12 from cancer), a sports mix - Border Collie/Staff/Russel (who passed at 14.5 from CHF), another Australian Shepherd (who passed at 11 from cancer), and I currently have a male Australian Shepherd. I work part time throughout the winter and have a tourism business during the summer. My work schedule is generally 4-6 hour days with a few off during the week. Your pet's care would fit in with my own pet's care. My dog is young and energetic and loves to play with other dogs. We hike most days in the woods surrounding the house. I have a pup who loves other dogs (he would have to come with me for overnight visits). He is playful and affectionate. I have 20 acres of woods to walk in (plus access to my neighbour's trails) and live on a small lake if your dog enjoys swimming. I am very knowledgeable in the care and training of animals, especially dogs and will be taking a first aide course when one comes available. I am very diligent about keeping dogs away from the road and they are always on a leash or longline.
“Tammy was extremely friendly and provided us with a superb service. Our dog is a rescue, and as such we were worried she might have trouble with a new environment. We were, however, pleasantly surprised to see our puppy quickly getting along with Tammy’s dogs. Overall, I totally recommend Tammy, and would definitely book with her again.”
“Gabrielle is very kind and met with me and Willow for an introduction meeting prior to me leaving Willow for the day. It was great for Willow to get used to seeing the place. It was the first time that I have ever left Willow for sitting for the day. Gabrielle made all my worries go away. She was quick to reply and provided lots of pictures. I will definitely be using her services in the future.”

I have a fenced yard , and just outside my fenced yard is a huge baseball field for my Katie and yours to run around with me. -It is a must that all their shots and ticks& flea meds are up to date .

“Leah was a wonderful pet sitter for Maple! She and her husband were very accommodating and attentive, making Maple's stay comfortable and fun! We were met outside with big smiles at a very early hour in the morning and our dog was happy and tired at the end of her stay with them. Thank you so much to you both!”
“Ricci has been great with Tony. She's taken care of him a few times now, and he comes back nice and pooped – the sign of a good stay! She has been sensitive to Tony's needs and my training methods, and he's been happy to go back each time.”

About: I was born and raised on a dairy farm in Prince Edward County, moved away to Alberta for 17 years after completing my agricultural diploma. I’ve been caring for animals since I was in diapers and have extensive knowledge of all sorts of animals! I have now returned to the family farm and am offering up my pet services!

Horses, cows, dogs, cats, chickens, goats you name it ! I myself have a wide range of critters who call the funny farm home. So I’m constantly coming n going looking after my crew and working on a dairy. We have a lovely lane way that we go walking down, the millennial Trail runs through our property too! As well as we have lake front access for swimming! Lots of activities here! We are an active crew. I have dogs and cats here of my own. Along with my horses and cows! My crew is use to meeting new friends on the regular, as we have many friends with pets and spent years offering our funny farm up for a shared space on Airbnb. However, my crew wouldn’t be attending house visits. My parents also share the property and are super good with my crew and visitors. Someone’s usually around!
