Kayla was fantastic! Quick and great at communication. Took the time to come meet our pup before hand and did a great job with our girl, she seemed very happy when we got home! I loved loved the updated pictures from her and will absolutely book her again in the future! I will also be referring her to everyone I know!

About: I have experience walking, house sitting, and providing day care for dogs and cats of all kinds, from energetic puppies to calm senior pets. I’m comfortable with different breeds, sizes, and personalities, and I always adjust my care to suit each animal’s needs and routine. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, feeding, litter box care, or overnight stays, I make sure pets feel safe, loved, and relaxed in their own environment. I’ve also cared for multiple pets at once and am confident handling different temperaments while keeping things calm and consistent. I currently work on a part-time basis, with shift working hours, so I can be flexible with your pets needs weather it be day/afternoon or evening. I have a pet of my own with a fenced in yard, to ensure safety for pets in and around my home. I also live on a quite street with low traffic volume

About: I’ve been dog sitting throughout high school and have experience caring for dogs with different personalities, routines, and needs. As I head into my third year of university, I’m looking to earn some extra savings for school while doing something I genuinely enjoy. I’m reliable, attentive, and committed to making sure your dog feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for. Whether that’s walks, playtime, sticking to a routine, or plenty of affection, I’ll treat your pet like they’re my own. I’m currently off school until September and have a flexible schedule, which allows me to provide plenty of attention and care for your pets. I work casual shifts at a hospital, so my availability varies, but I keep my calendar updated and communicate clearly about scheduling. As a pet owner myself with a pug at home, I understand how important it is to find someone reliable and trustworthy to care for your pets while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I follow each pet’s routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any specific instructions you provide. I make sure pets always have access to fresh water, plenty of attention, and a safe environment. In your home, I will treat both your pet and your space with respect, keeping things clean and secure while providing regular updates for peace of mind. My goal is to make your pet feel comfortable, cared for, and stress-free while you’re away.

About: I have owned and lived with dogs, and cats for the past 10 years. My current dog is high energy and we'll titled. I'm happy to work with puppies, and provide a little anxiety relief to your pets. Looking for someone to take your dog out while your on a long shift, longer walks than your able, or social/training enriched walks, I'm able to help. I grew up on a hobby farm and am more then happy to spend time with ducks, chickens, rabbits etc. I currently work full time from home, if you have wifi I can be there all day. I have a dog as well, he can come for social play dates, or stay home. For longer stay, my furbaby can come along for doggy socialization or I can alternate on a plan that works for both of us. Dogs love routine, keeping to their routine is safest. I practice positive reinforcement for pets. For dogs who pull on walks ii prefer a harness, it's safer for us and them, and have plenty of dual clip leashes to work on heeling with them.

Amy is fantastic with my dogs. She is very caring, and definitely trust worthy with your pets. Amy goes above and beyond to take the pups on new adventures, and is great with keeping with their routines. Not to mention when I surprised her with a new addition, she was not only thrilled to have two to walk, but is so great with his puppy antics. My pups love Amy and yours will too!

About: I have had 5 different cats and one dog throughout my life, and I have always had a unique and special connection to animals that humans cannot rival. I have cared, watched, bathed, trained and played with cats and dogs of all ages and sizes. I have attended dog training with my dog since she was a puppy and have a great energy around animals. As a student I have a fairly open schedule and can care for your pets during long work days or unexpected call ins. I am available at short notice or would be willing to come and meet your furry friend before making a formal arrangement I have a fenced in patio and live close to many parks. Living on a side street offers a safe opportunity for your dog. Although I do not have any fur babies of my own, many individuals in my apartment building have pets if you would like your pet to socialize!
