House Sitting in Portage la Prairie

“We really appreciated Emily coming to our house. She communicated updates well and sent photos. So nice to not have to worry about our pet when we were gone. Our dog did so well with her! We will definitely use her again. Thanks Emily!”

About: I have grown up with dogs my whole life, which has given me a deep understanding and intuition for their needs and behaviors. This experience has shaped me into a compassionate and knowledgeable caregiver, capable of forming strong bonds with the pets I look after. I have taken care of dogs of almost all breeds and I ensure that your pet will feel safe and loved in every possible way. I am extremely flexible as i go to school for a few hours and only work the weekends which means that I have plenty of time to play and care for your furry friend! I only need to understand your pet's daily routine to make sure I am able to provide the best service to your pet. I can also provide any last minute service if needed provided the location is accessible :) In caring for pets, whether in my home or yours, my approach is grounded in creating a safe, comfortable, and enriching environment that might meet your pet's needs! I make sure that my commitment extends beyond basic pet sitting to building trusting relationships with both pets and their owners. In building a good relationship with the pet, I would like to know their behaviors, any medications they might be on and lastly if they have any special needs. Knowing all of these will help me develop safe environment.

“Rp was such a great sitter for our girls. He has a very calm and welcoming personality, our dogs felt comfortable with him right away. He gave them lots of attention and care. We received lots of updates and both dogs ate their food everyday, which is a huge indication that they felt safe. We will definitely hire Rp to look after our dogs again, we were very impressed.”

About: Hello! My name is Hadas and I am a dedicated pet sitter and dog walker based in Winnipeg. I am 26 years old and work full time from home during the week so my schedule is flexible. I have a passion for caring for animals, and I specialize in providing services for both cats and dogs. I am a big animal lover. I currently have three cats (one senior) and have experience with puppies and senior dogs. 🐶🐈‍⬛ I currently work home full time Monday to Friday 8-4:30. I am always home during the weekends as well. I have a very flexible schedule and can be with your pet all the time and give it all of the love and attention they need and deserve. My home is a very clean, organized and safe place. I have three cats who love dogs. Two of them are four years old and the other one is 11. They are all in great health condition, are fixed and have all their vaccines. We recently had our senior dog pass away and they all got along great. As long as your dog is cat friendly there won’t be an issue.

“Julia's love for animals was apparent from our initial meet and greet. She did a great job caring for our dog, cat, and house well we were away. We came home to a clean house and happy pets.”

About: My husband and I have owned dogs for the past 15 plus years together, and our families both owned them for many years growing up. While he would not attend your home with me, I like everyone to know that our entire house is Pet lovers. My soft spot is for seniors, and dogs with varying degrees of health related issues. The ones that nobody wants and the often misunderstood ones. I have cared for a variety of breeds with varrying degrees of health issues. I have extensive experience in administering medications, IV fluids, intramuscular injections, eye drops, nail trims, and more. I have had 2 blind dogs (one of which had both of her eyes removed due to glaucoma), so am very familiar with their sometimes unique challenges. I also have experience caring for dogs with little to no hearing, as well as ones with various levels of behavioral challenges, such as resource/food guarding, stranger/leash aggression, and more. While I love a good puppy cuddle, my heart belongs to the older four (or less!) legged friends, and I would love the opportunity to meet your furry family members. I have an extremely flexible work from home/anywhere schedule with my current job, which allows me the freedom to help provide care for your furry family members. I can work from almost anywhere that has a charging outlet and a wifi connection, which i believe makes me an excellent choice for in your home care, or even a quick wellness visit! I love the idea of coming to your home to care for your pets, as it allows them to continue to feel safe and in a familiar environment. Following their regular routine helps make any time away from mom and dad as stress free as possible. Pets are never left outside unattended, and if you don't have a completely fenced yard, they will always be on a secure leash for potty breaks. If spending overnights in your home, I welcome the pets to share a sleeping space, or crate them as requested. Even if I do things different with my own pets, I want to ensure all of your rules and routines are followed while you are away.

About: I’ve been caring for dogs since I was 12, and it’s truly one of my favorite things to do! I love spending time with furry friends—feeding them, playing with them, and making sure they feel happy and safe. Since moving to Winnipeg four years ago, I’ve been the go‑to pet sitter for friends whenever they travel. They trust me because I follow their instructions carefully and treat their pets like part of my own family. I’d be happy to give your beloved companion the same loving care while you’re away! I’m working from home right now, so I’d really enjoy hanging out with a furry friend. I have plenty of experience caring for pets, and I’m flexible with my hours to make sure they get all the attention and walks they need. I’ll make sure your pet feels safe and comfy. With a balcony for fresh air, your furry friend will be happy. I follow instructions carefully and give lots of love and care.

About: Hi there! My name is Lisa and I'm a passionate dog lover. I've been taking care of dogs for my whole existence and have experience with all breeds and sizes. I’ve trained dogs growing up and it’s my dream to continue working with and around dogs! I’m currently only working on Saturdays doing pony rides at the corn maze! And I play competitive hockey on Sunday nights. I’m available anytime to come hang out with your fur-babies:) I have a 12 year old yorkie poodle at home, the yard is fenced, and well maintained. Inside he has gotten anxiety about being home alone when I have to work, so we are using baby gates for all the stairs, restricting him to the kitchen we’re his bed, food and water dish are. To keep him from doing Business on the carpet.
