“A huge thank you to Amanda for her care and attention of our little ones during our time away. She cared for their food, medications, supplements, and extra needs twice each day. Amanda also very thankfully was able to add an extra day at late notice which was very relieving. We received pictures of them during her visit which was very reassuring. She is highly recommended.”


About: I've owned and taken care of many dogs and cats over the years. With being done school now it has given me many new skills for animal care. I can come and care for your lovely pets at any time, we can discuss what times you would need and if I can make it work then there is no problem. If it's not a time I can then I will let you know other options . When going for walks with dogs I always bring a bowl and lots of water for them. I will follow any instructions that you leave for your pets such as feeding schedule and medication if needed.

About: My family always had a menagerie of pets growing up including dogs, cats, rabbits and pigs. As an adult my home has always included a pet. I love caring for pets of all types and sizes and would care for your pets and your home as if they were my own. I am currently an End of Life Doula and am working on getting a writing career off the ground so I have tons of flexibility because most of my work is done from home. I recognize that people are very particular when it comes to their pet care and I'm great at following directions. I don't need to question or judge your decisions that you make for your pets.

“So happy to have someone we can trust with Micha. Kristie obviously cares for dogs and knows how to deal with them and ask the right questions. Titan and Micha got along so well which is a big bonus for us! . Already booked two more overnight stays :-) Highly recommended.”

About: I am a registered nurse looking to take care of dogs and cats. My dog passed away Feb 11 of this year and I am really missing my baby and spending time with furry friends.

I am working as a travel nurse, and completely flexible as I choose my own short term contracts. I am able to travel around the province and accommodate schedules. When I was working full time it was difficult to find help that accommodated a nurses schedule so I’d love to be able to do that for someone else. I have a very flexible schedule therefore I’m able to come to your house or take your baby out for a walk, I love being active and engaging with the pets I care for.

About: I grew up in a household with a family dog which has resulted in a unconditional love towards any furry friend I meet. And I now have a dog of my own. My last family dog lived to 16 so am familiar with a senior dog lifestyle. In comparison my current dog Nova I have raised alone from a puppy. She is a collie lab mix with lots of energy and now almost 4 years old! I work from home and have a very flexible job that allows me to take a hour lunch break to go for a long walk with my dog. I have an acre and a half of land. About one acre has a inground electric fence that I have trained my dog on. If I have guest dogs I suggest a long lead if they are a flight risk or I have a spare collar for dog parents that agree to training with the fence ( I have flags and the collar beeps in warning to the perimeter). I give lots of affection throughout the day to pets and if I have a snack usually means my furry friend will as well.

About: I have had dogs for as long as I remember being born. I have learned to care for any little or big fluff. There comes a certain experience from owning dogs which makes me knowledgeable to cater to your lovely pets I am currently enjoying the sunny weather and would rather be able to care for pets all day long and enjoy such a relaxing time with them. I am able to crate your pet if needed. I am currently living in an apartment by myself, with no pets. Therefore, I can dedicate a lot of time to keeping your pet safe and busy.

About: I’ve been around animals my whole life and have hands-on experience caring for them. For the past nine years, I’ve raised my own pug and cat, giving me firsthand knowledge of pet care, from daily routines to providing love and attention. Please reach out to me and we can more than likely work something out. I’m very flexible when it comes to bookings as I’m trying to become self employed. I am also willing to travel out of town! I am a trustworthy, reliable, gentle and responsible woman! You can be left feeling confident that your pet and your home is being taken care of in the best way!

About: My first two clients here in the last few months are great pets and their owners are kind and appreciative but these are HUGE doggies. I get quite the workout, I'll just say that. It's funny, I feel like the Dog Whisperer, but only for monster-sized canines! Never knew I was a dog person until I met my girl's Mini Aussie Doodle, Rosie. Now I don't know how I ever got along without her. It's nice to finally have a purpose! I walked dogs for the Humane Society for a time, which was challenging certainly, but I met a lot of characters there! I have a very flexible schedule, splitting my time between my girlfriend's home in Peterborough and my mom's house in Lindsay and my dog-walking responsibilities in Dunsford and Warsaw Ontario, so it seems like I'm always on the move! I'm a writer and a composer, so many of my creative and artistic endeavors can be pursued almost anytime, leaving me suitable and flexible time slots to arrange walking, visits and stays! I always make time for what's important, and to me, getting outside with a four-legged friend is pretty special and I'm grateful and honored for the opportunity to be in their life! I do whatever is needed to make sure whatever four-legged friend I'm looking after and trusted is happy and comfortable while paying the proper attention necessary to the dog and not getting distracted, and always following the list of needs drawn out by the pet owner, however they want the leash, if they need brushing and paws wiped off after the walk, treats or no treats, I'm there to do whatever the client needs.

About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life. My step mother is a dog groomer so I’ve had lots of experience helping her and spending time with them to make them feel comfortable in a new environment! Im currently an events worker, meaning a lot of down time during this season. Luckily for your pup and fur babies I have more time to dedicate to them. My cats are very friendly and cuddly and would absolutely love having a cuddle buddy in the house!! If I am caring for your pup at their own environment I will spend my time making them enjoy themselves so they feel safe with me around.
