About: I’ve taken care of animals all my life but being in a military town, lots of people need pet sitting! I can take care of pups/kittens, adult and senior dogs/ cats. Big and small I love them all! Not currently working so available always. I will be going back to work in December so it will be limited after that. I do have a baby so I will have a side kick with me! I have a big dog park in front of my home plus a big backyard as well. Always keep litter boxes clean. Make sure water bowls and food bowls always clean. Make sure your furry babies are happy!

My experience with Cheryl Ann was excellent. She came and met myself and my dog ahead of the night out. This is the 1st time using this service and I felt anxious. There was no need! Great experience and a lovely lady. I will definitely book again with Cherlyanne.

Sarah and Karine are absolutely lovely. They took the time to come by and meet us and the boys which was very much appreciated since this was our first time leaving them and our home in someone’s care. Ted and Zak were in excellent hands. Lots of snuggles. We appreciated the photo updates as well. Both Sarah and Karine were very engaged and responsive. We can’t wait to have them again.

My husband and I were skeptical about hiring a stranger to care for our beloved dachshund in our home, but we had little choice as our typical dog-sitters were unavailable. Upon meeting Tyler, his calm, patient presence, and the space he naturally afforded to our nervous pup to get to know him immediately put us (and our pup) at ease. Tyler was attentive, thorough, and incredibly responsible. To say he is overqualified would be an understatement. We had great peace of mind while we were away and would have him back in a heartbeat.

About: I’ve been a pet owner my whole life and have always had a deep love for animals. I have experience in dog training environments and am skilled in regulating behaviours. I have also looked after pets for many friends over the years😊 I care for all pets as if they were my own, giving all the love and affection I’ve got! I will always comply with client care requests😌 I am currently working full time, my availability is limited to evenings and weekends. However, if you are located here in town I can likely stop in over my lunch break! I will always comply with client care requests and I suggest holding a meet and greet with owner and fur baby prior to my services being booked.

About: I have been caring for animals for over 30 years. In addition to having three cats and a service dog at home, I have looked after dogs and cats from birth through to helping them cross the rainbow bridge. My days are free to come play with, snuggle and love on your dog. I can provide meal breaks, or just a visit to break up the day. I have experience with dogs both allowed to roam or crated. I am comfortable with crating dogs, and love finding ways to keep them entertained.

About: I have been surrounded by pets my entire life, building a deep understanding and love for their unique personalities and needs. My experience includes volunteering with several dog and cat rescues, where I provided care, training, and support for animals of all breeds, including those with high needs. This hands-on work has given me the skills to handle pets with diverse temperaments, ensuring they feel safe, loved, and well-cared for. I genuinely love all animals and take pride in offering thoughtful, compassionate care. Additionally, I have experience handling emergencies calmly and effectively, always prioritizing the safety and well-being of the pets in my care. My strong sense of organization allows me to manage feeding schedules, medication routines, and enrichment activities seamlessly, ensuring a smooth and stress-free experience for both you and your beloved pets. As an avid gardener, I also offer plant care as an additional service. Whether you have a few cherished houseplants or a collection of greenery, I can keep them well-watered, pruned and healthy. I’m happy to discuss their specific care routines to ensure they receive the attention they need while you're away. Working from home allows me the flexibility to provide attentive, personalized care for pets throughout the day. Whether I'm creating jewelry or painting with watercolors on my porch, pets are always a part of my peaceful routine. Daily walks, playtime, and cuddles fit seamlessly into my schedule, ensuring pets feel loved and engaged. My weekly rhythm allows for consistent care, whether it's a midday check-in, evening stroll, or extended stays. Caring for pets complements my lifestyle perfectly, as their presence brings joy and balance to my creative days. When caring for pets in a client's home, I prioritize creating a safe and familiar environment for them. I spend significant time in their space, often working from their home during the day to provide consistent companionship. Pets thrive on routine, so I ensure their feeding, play, and exercise schedules remain as close to their usual patterns as possible. By maintaining their daily rhythm and being a calming, familiar presence, I help promote their psychological safety and well-being. In my home, pets are a part of my daily life and come with me everywhere. We enjoy alternating between indoor and outdoor time, ensuring a balance of relaxation and activity. There's a beautiful lake nearby with a gentle, scenic walk to the shore, perfect for a peaceful stroll. While I’m not an adventure hiker, I love slow, enjoyable walks that allow pets to explore and engage with their surroundings at a calm, comfortable pace. My home provides a nurturing and tranquil environment where pets feel like family.

Alisha has often cared for my dog with checking in when I’m out on photographer shoots/weddings. She’s always fantastic with understanding my dog’s routine as well as being considerate of her reactive behaviour while out on public walks. She ensures my dog stays leashed and is only walked in areas where an incident will not occur. My dog is nice and tired by the time I’m home which is perfect for my busy lifestyle, and my dogs busy energy! I highly recommend Alisha for your dog walking needs!

Melanie was kind enough to take care of my 2 cats and 2 dogs (1 was a puppy at the time) for about 6 weeks and with short notice. She took the time to send photos and updates as she knew I was sad to be away and anxious about leaving a puppy that I was still house training. I was comforted by the updates showing that she loved my pets and took excellent care of them. My dogs (especially) were always happy to see her and enjoyed play dates with Melanie’s 2 dogs.
