Pet Sitting Pickering

About: I've been a dog lover for decades and dogs love my energy! I'm a happy dog parent of 1 and want to be able to help your dogs get the exercise they need. I have availability between 9am-10:30am on weekdays and 9am-7pm on weekends. I will keep my calendar updated if I have increased availability for holidays and special occasions. Attention to detail is my specialty and I'm happy to follow instructions left for caring for your dog during house visits. Every dog is different and I'm happy to learn all their quirks and habits!

“Alexa and Andrew are so amazing! We cannot say enough good things about our dog sitters. They are incredibly patient, kind, and genuinely care about our dog. Their communication is outstanding—they send frequent updates and so many photos, which gives us total peace of mind. It’s clear how attentive and thoughtful they are, and we trust them completely with our dog. We feel so lucky to have found them and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to anyone looking for reliable, loving care.”

“Sydney provided wonderful drop-in care for our 14 year old cat during a recent 8-day trip. When we came home, it was evident he had been well fed and cared for. We wouldn't hesitate to book Sydney again for future cat-sitting needs.”

“Amandeep has been amazing with taking care of our senior dog. He is extremely friendly and attentive to our dogs needs and keeps us up to date by taking pictures and writing visit reports. We are so appreciative of how gentle and patient he is with our dog who is quite old. I would definitely recommend Amandeep!”

About: Hi! I'm a huge animal lover with experience caring for both dogs and cats. I love making pets feel safe, happy, and spoiled with lots of love, playtime, walks and cuddles while you're away. I treat every furry friend like my own and always make sure they get the care and attention they deserve. I work from home which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to provide attenntive pet care throughout the day. You can feel confident your furry friends are in good hands while you're away. I create a safe,calm and trusting environment where pets can feel comfortable and relaxed. I pay close attention to their routines and follow care instructions carefully while providing a clean and stress-free environment.

About: I've cared for both small and large dogs, from teacup Shih Tzus to German Shepherds. I love going on long walks, playing, and making sure every dog gets plenty of love, attention, and belly rubs! I currently work part time, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to dedicate to pet care throughout the day. This allows me to provide regular walks, playtime, potty breaks, feeding, and lots of one on one attention to help your pet feel comfortable, happy, and well cared for. When caring for pets in your home, my priority is to keep their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I'll follow your instructions for feeding, walks, playtime, medications (if needed), and any other specific care your pet requires. I understand that every pet has their own personality and routine, so I take the time to make them feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for. I'll also send regular photo and message updates so you can relax knowing your pet is happy and in good hands while you're away.

About: I've taken care of animals since I was a child but have actively babysat and looked after dogs for the last three years, with one of those years being for my own dog. I am accustomed to teaching tricks, potty training, crate training, gentle parenting, positive reinforcement and enrichment activities with dogs. I also groom my dog at home, from bathing to blowdrying — from trimming nails to quick face and paw touch ups. I mostly work from home and with a spacious living space as well as instant access to my backyard, I am able to take care of you fur baby's needs within a moments notice. Taking multiple breaks to help relieve or unwind your pup with a walk is no problem by me. I currently do this for my own pup and see this as no problem for yours. I am free most evenings, weekends and holidays as well; I am flexible with when you'd like to start/end your time with me. I have a large fenced backyard and a playful one year old bichon mix who loves the company of other pups. I have a few dog beds as well as a potential space I can fence/crate your pup, should they need that sort of space while boarding. I don't mind sharing with you photos and videos through out the day to help give you peace of mind while your dog is in my care. If you have specific requests or training, please feel free to share; I will do my best to accommodate you.

About: ONLY 1 fur friend each time. Pets are families. They deserve love and care. My mom had a cat, we play, eat, sleep together. He taught me how to enjoy life no matter what you have experienced or experiencing. My friend had a dog, I always go visit. We played and went out for walks often. Thank you so much for picking me and share your cute family with me. I only accept 1 fur friend or 2 from the same family each time so I can put all my attention on him/her. Loves hiking when weather permits,5km min. For 🐶 will provide daily walking data so you know how long we walked and how much energy we burned. We will go out for a walk in the morning time, lunch time and dinner time. More short 15-20 potty breaks in between as well. 3 times of walking of 30 min would be by default. On weekends will go hiking with 5km min. I lived in a pet friendly condo and the neighborhood is very quiet to take a walk. There are two community parks nearby to visit. When walking in the neighborhood and condo, will always meet at least 1 or 2 pet friend.

About: I’ve started my pet sitter services since I was 17years old, and graduated from Animal care program in college, I have 6cats & 1 dog at home:) I’m working part time currently, I have love to have a fun time with your furry baby on the weekends and sometime on week days. For my own pets, I don’t give them free feeding , I always feed them twice a day in a fixed amount of food, I walk my dog twice a day, and we have a huge yard with fence.

“Jahzara is amazing. We used Rover for the first time and I trusted my intuition to go with her based on her profile and I am so happy to say it went perfectly. Our cats were happy when we came back from our vacation as they got a lot of love and attention. Jahzara made sure to send us the photos from every visit and seeing them getting love and treats was a joy. I will definitely be trusting her with taking care of animals.”

About: I am a lifelong pet lover who has been a proud owner of cats and dogs for over 15 years. My passion for animals began in childhood and has only grown stronger with time. I believe that pets are an integral part of the family and should be treated with love, respect, and care. Experience: I have owned pets for over 15 years and have extensive experience caring for cats and dogs. Throughout the years, I have provided my pets with daily exercise, proper nutrition, and plenty of affection. I have also dealt with various health issues and emergencies, including administering medication, treating wounds, and taking my pets to the vet. As a part-time pet sitter, I integrate pet care into my schedule by setting aside specific blocks of time each week to devote to my clients' pets. I make sure to communicate with pet owners about their pet's needs and schedule, so I can plan accordingly. For example, if a pet needs to be fed at a specific time, I will ensure that I am available during that window. I also try to be flexible and willing to work around the schedules of both the pet and the owner. Overall, while pet care is not my full-time job, I take my role and work hard to ensure that each pet receives the attention and care they deserve. When caring for pets in my home, I make sure to create a safe and comfortable environment for them. This may include setting up a designated space for them to sleep, eat, and play, and ensuring that the area is clean and free of any potential hazards. I provide them with food and water as needed, and make sure that they receive plenty of exercise and attention throughout the day. Depending on the pet, I may also need to administer medication or tend to any special needs they have. When caring for pets in a client's home, I follow any specific instructions provided by the owner and make sure to maintain their routine as closely as possible. This includes feeding them at the specified times, taking them for walks or playtime, and providing them with any necessary medication or treatment. I also make sure to keep the living space clean and tidy, including cleaning litter boxes or picking up after the pet on walks. Throughout my time with the pet, I provide them with love and attention to ensure that they feel comfortable and at ease in their surroundings. In both situations, I keep open communication with the pet owner to provide updates on how their pet is doing and address any concerns they may have. My goal is to provide a safe and nurturing environment for the pets in my care and to ensure that their physical and emotional needs are met to the best of my ability.

“I contacted Farah pretty much last minute to look after my cat for 5 days. She responded promptly and quickly accepted my request! She did everything I requested and more! She kept Luna's area clean and tidy. She even left catnip for my cat on the last day. She was attentive and I think she did a fabulous job. Although my cat is on the shy side, she still tried to get her comfortable with her. She even stayed an extra 40 minutes! She was always on time and messaged me with photos and updates, which I really appreciated. If I ever need someone to look after Luna in the future, it will definitely be Farah!”

About: Animals are my absolute passion and I live my life very much in mind of animal welfare. As a testament, I have been a vegetarian for many years now and it's a joy to be able to care for and spend time with animals. Most people would define me as a compassionate and dedicated animal lover. It would be my dream to make it my work. I really enjoy being out with the dogs and I tend to give them a lot of attention and always have safety and enrichment in mind. In the past I would go on "Meetup" dog walking hikes, even though I do not own one, just because it makes hiking that much better! I have volunteered and been trained at several animal shelters over the years including the Toronto Humane Society where I would walk a range of dogs, everything from aggressive, blind, physically disabled, friendly and various types of breeds. I also grew up with a family pet for 14 years in addition to dog walking for countless family members, friends and neighbours. In addition to caring for dogs , I was fostering cats for about 8 years. I have adopted out and fostered about 30 cats over that time (one or two at a time), helping them to become accustomed to home life and trustful of humans. Therefore, I can tend to any cats or other pets at your home. Look forward to meeting your fur "baby"! When I am dog or cat sitting your pet would be my number one priority. For dogs I often do one big walk/adventure a day and regular local walks or bathroom breaks for the remaining of the day. Safety is always my number one concern for the animal. With new dogs I'm always cautious around other animals, do not go to off leash dog parks and I keep them leashed up. I currently only do house sitting so the animals are usually comfortable in their environment and they make sure they have plenty of water and food.
