“If you're looking for a pet sitter I highly reccomend Chanda. She has great communication and we appreciated the photos she sent of our pup. It made us trust that we left our pet in good hands. This was our first ever pet sitter and such a postive experience. Booking was easy. Chanda was very professional and puntual. We will absolutely be booking with her again in the future!”
“You and your pets need Jenna in your life! She's lovely to interact with, exceptionally thoughtful and detailed oriented, a great communicator, real animal lover, and totally reliable. Jenna house sit for us during a recent 10 day vacation and took care of our 16 year old cat, who gets meds 3x a day and is all kinds of spoiled, and our 3 guinea pigs, one of whom is blind and needs hand fed. She did an amazing job caring for them, keeping us updated and sharing funny pics and stories, in a very timely manner, and we came home to clean litter boxes, cages, well fed animals, and oh yah she also washed our sheets and towels and let us know when everyone's last food and meds were. I can't recommend her enough, she's definitely our go to pet and house sitter!”
About: Hi! I'm a mature young adult with a lifelong love for all animals! I've been around animals since birth and currently care for a diverse group. My Chug (Chihuahua Pug mix) requires daily medication for his epilepsy, my cat needs special care for feline acne and I also foster a yellow belly slider turtle! Each experience has deepened my understanding of specialized pet care. I am currently not working so Pet Care is my full-time job. Reliability is important to me, I have a dependable vehicle so getting around is never an issue. I also believe in the importance of meet and greets to ensure that your pet(s) feel comfortable with me before booking. Safety and trust are my top priorities! I am a clean well organized person who wants to make sure that your animal(s) stay healthy, happy and content when you are away. Not long ago, me and my family had to say goodbye to our senior German Shepherd mix, who at times had difficulties with other dogs. Through her, I gained hands on experience in managing situations where pets might not get along.
“Aleithia was great with our kitties! She provided updates of how they were doing while we were away which I really appreciated.”
About: I’m a really big fan of positive reinforcement when it comes to dogs. I believe when you’re attentive to them and present with them they respond in kind and you can then reward good behaviour as it shines through. I’ve had a lot of experience with puppies and have learned a lot. I have a very strong dog who is really good at training puppies and showing them proper responses. I’m available most days if booked well enough in advance. Some last minute bookings may work, depending what’s going on. I value exercise and boundaries with dogs and think they need that to thrive. I have a fenced yard and a very strong dog who is used to me taking care of other dogs. She’s very good at setting boundaries and assessing where other dogs are at and what they need.
About: I've had Huskies to Mixed breed Collies to Frenchtons. (Bulldog/Boston terrier) I've done potty training as well as kennel training. Consistency is HUGE!! Regular bathing and nail trimming when needed. Ive spent alot of time doing hands free leash training. I was able to take my husky/collie anywhere with me without a leash. Building a good relationship goes a long way! I'm "Aunty Kristi" to my friends animals and I house sit/animal sit often and thoroughly enjoy it. I make sure to show a little love to any and all animals. I'm the person who stops anywhere to make friends with a new fur buddy. They always say animals are the best judge of character and I absolutely believe that.❤️ I'm confident in my abilities to provide proper care and all the love for your animals. 😊🐶🦊 I am newly relocating from Winnipeg and would love to meet your fur babies. I am not working full time atm so I have all the time and flexibility!!! I am truly an animal person. 💯 I treat all animals with so much love! Some are a little easier to win over at first but so be it. No two animals are the same. I try to take into account their history so I can get a better feel for how they work and how I can work with them. If it's animals I don't know I'll introduce myself and let them come to me. Respect for their space is important.
About: I'm a mom to 2 boys, and we currently have two cats and a 2 year old dog. Walks are a favourite, and lots of play time and cuddles!

I work from home so I'm available to drop in on your pets when the need arises! Walks are an excellent way to stay motivated on my health goals as well as providing excellent health benefits for your fur babies. I have a fenced yard at home, lots of toys and healthy treats, we do lots of play time! Activities suited to your pets personality is my specialty! I love creating that bond with them!
About: With 11+ years of personal and professional pet care experience—and a lifetime of growing up around and loving animals—I prioritize making every pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved.

With a flexible schedule, I can be there whenever your pet needs me. Whether it’s early morning walks, midday check-ins, or overnight stays, I’m available to provide consistent, attentive care that fits their routine and keeps them happy while you're away.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind pretty much my whole life! Friends, family and neighbours have trusted me to bathe, feed and walk their pets. I have a dog of my own, Cooper. I am excited to meet your pet(s) and treat them with love like they are my own! I’m currently working part time so I will have plenty of time to play with your pets! I can work any day of the week with at least 1 day notice (3 day notice for places more than an hour away). I live in a shared apartment so unfortunately I can’t offer my place to care for your pets but I am more than happy to watch your place while I care for your pets!
About: We always had family pets growing up and my love for animals has only grown. I would love to show your animals the same love I’ve always shown mine :) I work full time but I’m looking to fill some time in my free evenings and weekends! I love to walk and would love a furry companion. Due to my living situation, I’m unable to care for animals at my own home. However whether it’s walking or playing fetch in your yard, you can count on me.

“Karlee took wonderful care of our dog while we were on a holiday. It was such a relief to know he was being loved and well-cared for in our home environment rather than worrying about the stress of staying in a kennel. We definitely recommend Karlee to anyone who needs a pet sitter - your pet will be in good hands.”
