“I reached out to Debra at practically the last minute when a cat sitting arrangement I had made for my vacation fell through. Debra responded immediately and agreed to take my kittens on. She was warm and friendly, both to my kittens and myself. Her communication was excellent and she provided me with thorough updates and adorable photos and videos every day. I sensed from the moment I met Debra that my kittens would be in safe hands and she proved to be as reliable as I had predicted she would be. I would highly recommend Debra and look forward to working with her again.”

She sent pictures and updates every day. We are very happy with the level of care she provided for our sweet girl. Our cat was clearly happy with her visits. I would highly recommend Kristen to care for your pets. We will definitely use her again!”


About: Looking for a trustworthy and reliable dog walker/sitter? I own a 2-year-old Australian Shepherd, so I know how crucial it is for your dog to get exercise daily! I've always been a lover of dogs and am patient and super flexible. Hire me as your next dog walker/sitter, and I will go above and beyond for your furry family members and you as a client. Can't wait to meet you! I currently have a freelancing business (work from home) as well as a part time job that is primarily nights and weekend. I can do most mornings, some evenings and have lots of time for afternoon check-ins to make sure your pet is safe, happy and well taken care of. I do not have a yard but I do have a dog who can keep your puppy company. I love to walk [obviously :) ]. I can easily crate your dog if needed. My dog is also crate trained and we love to work on training games together to help her stay stimulated. I am flexible and fully supportive of your rules as an owner, everyone does things a little differently. I have a lot of respect for client's methods for their own pets and am happy to implement your common practice and routines so your pet is as comfortable as possible.

“Bentley always enjoys his drop in visits”

“Anna and Andrew were excellent with Thunder. They sent us pictures of him during their visit and followed instructions. We couldn't be happier!”


About: Having personally cared for two beloved dogs and my commitment to take care of them makes me the perfect choice for your dog sitting needs. I am currently working part-time which means I am very flexible with my schedule. Usually afternoon or morning time will be a great time ! In my home or a client's home, I prioritize a safe and comfortable environment for the doggies. I ensure they receive their meals on schedule, following any dietary requirements or restrictions. Regular walks, playtime, and exercise to keep them active and happy. Regular cleaning of food and water dishes, litter accident clean-up. Keeping clients informed with photos and update always! My goal is to create a safe, nurturing, and fun environment, whether in my home or the client's, ensuring that the pets feel loved and well taken care of.

About: I'm Siobhan, your dog's new adventure buddy. I am 28 yrs old and have been surrounded by dogs and cats my whole life, and we have always had family dogs. I have a Boston terrier (Kiwi), whom I love so dearly and who has given me such a deep appreciation for a dog's development. I have trained her and my family dogs with a calm, patient approach, which I have found extremely effective. Working from home means I have a flexible schedule tailored to your pets needs. Day time is best for me, 9:30 am - 8:30 pm. I take a very hands-on approach. I believe dogs' brains are highly developed, and they understand a lot more than we sometimes give credit for. I treat dogs like I would treat my own child. I love getting to know their personalities and spending time building a connection. I find dogs listen so much better when they trust you and I focus on building trust between me and the dog.

About: Hello, my name is Brad! I have worked in the pet industry for 13 years and currently manage a warehouse in the industry. I grew up on a horse farm with dogs, cats and fish. I fell in love with all animals at an early age. As soon as I could, I got a co-op at a local pet store and eventually a job. Learning as much as possible while tending to all sorts of animals along the way. I have worked my way to the top by providing exceptional customer service and attention to detail. I believe I can use my same skills to help others. I have owned all kinds of reptiles, fish, cats, dogs etc and am knowledgeable in all aspects of husbandry and diet. I have my own wonderful dog Panik who is an 8 year old Cattle Dog and I also have a Saltwater Aquarium (huge passion). I walk my dog everyday, perhaps you have even seen me at Scouts, Tudhope Park or around Westmount! I am available almost every evening from 5-10pm. Given notice I can make exceptions to the schedule. Wednesday and Sundays I am free all day to walk your beautiful furbaby! I will gladly take your precious pets for a walk in your local area, I can accomodate trips to specific parks, scouts valley etc but their may be an added fee depending on distance. Treats and manners are provided at no charge!

“Nicole took wonderful care of our 2 kittens. She took the time to coax out our shy girl and sent us lovely pics of them getting to know her. Easy to talk to, communicates promptly, and has a flair for putting cats at ease. I'll be booking with her again.”


About: I grew up taking care of cats, and my fiancé grew up taking care of dogs. We have a 2 year old hunting dog, who's our best friend and baby girl. I work from home most of the week in my office in the backyard, which is fully fenced and provides plenty of room for playing and sniffing around. My dog and I enjoy going for long hikes both on and off leash, and we would love to have a friend join us. Juniper (our dog) is fully trained both as a house pet and as a hunting dog, and I am comfortable with continuing and reinfocing any training you might be doing with your dog. I work from home most days of the week, with the exception of Wednesdays. However, my fiancé owns a furniture business and keeps a flexible schedule on Wednesdays to take care of our dog in my absence. We have a fenced in yard where our friendly pup spends most of her day playing around and snoozing. When the weather is bad, we snuggle up in my office while I work. We like to go on long walks on and off leash, and explore the trails in our area. At night, we crate our dog to ensure her safety and give her a restful sleep.

“Excellent care, great updates!”

Every member of my family has had dogs and I used to dog sit for most of them as well as dog sit my dad's coworkers golden retriever for one month every summer for about 5 years. I Have family friends that are veterinarians that have taught me a lot about pet care growing up. Was the sole dog walker and groomer in the family and have also trained my puppies. All of my pets have lived into their senior years so I am very well aware of specialized senior care and can confidently give medication.

Siobhan P.
“Siobhan is great, she will take my dog chuck who is 10lb for my whole work day. He always come home well walked and cared for, she is very kind with animals and her personal dog kiwi who is also about 10lb is great with everyone whether that is a family or other animals, they make a great duo that makes all animals feel welcomed.”


Brad H.
“Brad is very good with dogs. I had an old boxer Tazz who was very needy and Brad took the time to make sure all his needs were met. Tazz loved to go for walks but didn't always have the energy to go as far as he thought he should so Brad would let him take breaks and give him all sorts of attention until Tazz was ready to go again. Tazz also was on various medications and Brad was able to administer the drugs whether it was oral medication, eye drops or ear drops. Brad has also looked after our rescue boxer who is very high maintenance. You always have to be very careful not to leave anything out and about as Motor would be sure to get into something. Motor is also not a fan of men and Brad was able to make friends with him quite easily. Brad has a very calming personality. Motor looks forward to going for walks with Brad and when Brad has to dog sit.”
