La communication a été très bien. Je les recommande fortement.”

About: I worked as a professional dog groomer for almost 10 years and also have experience working at a dog daycare, so I’m comfortable handling everything from energetic puppies to senior dogs, as well as small and large breeds. I have a small Pomeranian named Brie. She is 2 years old, weighs 2.5 kg, and is full of energy! She absolutely loves playing with other dogs and is the center of my world. Because of her, I truly understand how important it is to find someone you can completely trust to care for your pet. I work from home, so your dog will have plenty of company throughout the day and will rarely be left alone. If I ever need to step out, it’s only for a short errand, and I always make sure your dog is safe and comfortable. Every dog has their own routine, and I believe it’s important to keep them as comfortable as possible while you’re away. I carefully follow all the instructions you provide, from feeding schedules and medication (if needed) to potty breaks, playtime, and walking routines. Whether your dog prefers several short walks throughout the day or longer adventures, I’m happy to adapt to their individual needs. I live just minutes from Angrignon Park, which is a wonderful place for enriching walks, fresh air, and plenty of new sights and smells for dogs who enjoy exploring. I treat every dog as if they were my own, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. My goal is to provide exceptional care for your dog and complete peace of mind for you. Because I work from home, dogs in my care receive plenty of attention and companionship throughout the day and are rarely left alone. I also believe in keeping each dog as comfortable as possible by following the their routine, from feeding schedules and medications (if needed) to walks, playtime, and rest.

“Merci à Luisa et Hanse de s’être occupés de Kuro; j ai reçu beaucoup de photos comment elle était installée chez eux et des vidéos lors des promenades.

Kuro est très relaxe tout s’est bien passé 🙏 Je vous les recommande chaudement !”
“Anh and her family treated our dogs like they were their own dogs. Ryder and Daisygirl were so well taken care of while we were away. They sent us pictures of them everyday and that helped us to know that my babies were doing ok. Anh was very responsive so definitely there was no lack of communication there. My babies loved them, especially their son and their very chill and gentle dog Kind. We will definitely book with them again in the future! Thank you for watching our babies so well Anh and family!”
“Our Buddy had the time of his life with this wonderful family and all the other furry friends! Thank you so much for sending photos throughout his entire stay with you. It made our vacation so relaxing knowing Buddy was with you and so very well taken care of. Your family is amazing and trustworthy. We highly recommend this family to take care of your pet. Mil merci !”
“Marie-Anne est une gardienne exceptionnelle. Elle est une vraie maman pour les chats. Très à l’écoute des petits caprices de nos petits amours. Elle est généreuse en photos et commentaires. Nos petites boules de poils sont en sécurité chez elle. Merci de prendre soin d’Adel aussi bien.”
“What an amazing family! They were so good to Apollo. Loads of walks and sent me lovely pictures every day. A great backyard to play in as well! They accommodated me when my plane was late and I had to pick up really late. Apollo loved this family and had a brilliant time.”
“Émilie et François-Louis ont bien communiqué avec nous dès la première rencontre, avant même qu’on réserve avec eux pour garder notre chienne. Ils étaient très gentils avec nous et surtout avec notre chienne. On a confiance en eux. Leur communication durant notre voyage était apprécié aussi, des photos et des courtes mises à jour pour nous rassurer que notre chienne allait bien.”
“Mae took incredible care of our senior dog with arthritis, providing frequent detailed updates and photos which took away any need to worry. She made our dog immediately feel comfortable with her and in her home, which is ideal for any pet. I'd highly recommend her to anyone!”

About: My family has a long history of caring for cats—we have had cats since before I was born. I grew up around cats, so I’m very familiar with their daily needs, personalities, and little habits. Cats have always been part of my family life, and I genuinely enjoy spending time with them. Our home is fully prepared for cat care. We have litter boxes, cat toys, scratching posts, cat trees, cozy resting spots, food and water bowls, and a calm indoor environment. I understand that every cat is different: some are shy and need quiet space, while others enjoy attention, playtime, and companionship. What sets me apart is my patience, gentleness, and attention to cleanliness. I can help with feeding, fresh water, litter box cleaning, playtime, brushing, and photo updates. I will always follow the owner’s instructions and do my best to make each cat feel safe, comfortable, and loved while they are away from home.
“Excellent service!! I was worried about leaving my cats initially but after the first day of seeing how caring she was with them, I would gladly leave both my cats in her care again! You can tell she has a genuine love for animals by the way she acts with them and kept me posted on their situation.”
“Rojina is the best! She won the heart of my very shy cat right away and was able to pet him every time she visited. She is super reliable, I got photos and a report at each visit so I didn’t have to worry about anything. I would hire her again for sure!”
“Ekaterina was an absolutely wonderful house sitter! She was kind, communicative, and clearly cared about taking good care of my fur baby. I wouldn’t ever hesitate to book her again. Thank you so much for taking away all stress about caring for my little girl while I was travelling!”
“Caitlan took great care of my cats. She really left my mind at ease & was meticulous with following all my instructions. I would hire her again in an instant, and I’m sure my cats would welcome her back into our home!”
About: I grew up with 30+ bunnies in my backyard, and had 3 cats. My mom still has 2 rescued dogs and 4 rescued cats and 1 bird that i babysit sometimes while working from home. I currently live with my sister that has a small pugchi mix so i’m used to being the babysitter for her as well when she goes to work or on trips. I took care of 2 ex-boyfriend’s dogs that were a german shepherd and a golden retriever. I work from home 100% of the time (so I can stay for as long as needed and give your home and furry friends all the love and attention they deserve!) All i need is for you to have reliable Wi-Fi i can connect to in order to work. Im able to give your pet attention throughout the whole day and go for potty breaks when needed. Walks would be before work, during lunchbreak and after work. I speak FR and EN. I can give you updates and pictures as much as you need to feel like your baby is safe. I’m a very calm person and would be working on my computer wether it’s a weekday or weekend so your home is in good hands. I can also do a house clean for a fee if you’re interested.
“Pamela did a great job of taking care of my cat Loki while I was on vacation for two weeks. She sent pictures at every visit and let me know immediately when she saw that a plant had been knocked over and Loki had a hairball. Would definitely recommend and will trust Pamela with my pets again soon.”
About: I have been around and taken care of many family and friends pets, on occasion, throughout my life. I just recently officially introduced myself to the pet owner life. No matter the personality or energy level of your pet I am ready to be there and take care. I mainly work as an actor. This means that most of the time I have off unless I have a role. Due to the fact that my availability is completely open most of time and I am not fixed to a weekly schedule, I am able to offer my services any time. Even last minute. The owner would be fully aware of anything I can/will do. I am there to not only take care of your pet but also your home.
About: I work mostly from home, am reliable, caring and very active. I don't have a yard, however I live close to large parks and beautiful areas to go exercise dogs. My personal dog is high energy, we are constantly out for adventures. I am a dog trainer as a hobby, lots of understanding of canine body language/ behavior/needs, tons of puppy experience and I love high drive, high energy dogs. I work from home, can provide walks and exercise especially in the morning, the best way to start the day. During work hours, i can provide potty breaks whenever necessary No yard, but plenty of areas walking or driving distance to go move with dogs, no matter the weather conditions, dogs must move ! I do require dogs to be crate trained if they are boarding with me, mainly for safety should I need to leave them alone.
About: I believe animals are always communicating with us, and I approach pet care by listening first and responding with patience and care. I have 12 years of experience with my own dog and have worked through reactivity, anxiety, fear of noises, and leash pulling using positive reinforcement. I have worked with multiple trainers over the years and have spent a lot of time learning about dog behaviour and psychology, which has shaped how I care for animals today. I pay close attention to body language and subtle cues like freezing, yawning, or disengaging. When a dog seems overwhelmed, I focus on helping them feel safe and settled by creating space, choosing calmer routes or environments, or redirecting them toward something grounding. With shy or nervous dogs, I always let them approach on their own terms and give them the freedom to take breaks or step away when needed. I also believe in balancing physical and mental stimulation. Along with fulfilling walks, I enjoy incorporating enrichment like sniffing games, confidence-building activities, and gentle training. These activities work well for high-energy dogs and can also help more nervous or shy dogs feel comfortable and confident. I have experience caring for large and small dogs, puppies, and senior dogs, as well as administering medication including pills, liquids, topical treatments, and ear drops. I am very comfortable following vet instructions and care routines, and I tend to be very organized and attentive to detail. Above all, I genuinely care about each animal’s wellbeing and individuality. I use patience, positive reinforcement, and observation as the foundation of my care, and I always do my best to make sure every pet feels safe, understood, and cared for. I’m currently a work-from-home professional so I am quite flexible time and space wise. I am available at virtually any time and can readily offer overnight care in your home while you’re away. With a persistent attention to detail, I frequently look out for when an animal is trying to communicate a need, such as them wanting water, to play, to eat, to be pet, etc. I always ensure they have fresh, clean water and that they are fed the appropriate amount and on time. I also like to spend quality time with them giving them belly rubs and and behind-the-ear scratches. I also look out for their safety by keeping things that might be dangerous out of reach as well as checking in on them frequently to make sure they are doing well :)
“Lisette a été une gardienne exceptionnelle. Elle a pris soin de Jonesy avec beaucoup de douceur et générosité. Elle me donnait des nouvelles et photos. La maison était impeccable lorsque nous sommes rentrés. Je vais faire à nouveau appel à ses services avec une grande joie et confiance.”
About: I've been around dogs and cats for as long as I can remember. Growing up, there was always a pet in my home, so caring for animals has been a natural part of my life since childhood. Over the years, I've gained experience with pets of different ages, sizes, and personalities, and I've learned that every animal has unique needs and deserves patient, loving care. I currently have a very flexible schedule, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the pets in my care. I'm available throughout the day for walks, drop-in visits, playtime, feeding, and companionship, and I'm happy to work around your pet's usual routine to help them feel comfortable and secure. Your pet's safety, comfort, and well-being are my top priorities. I understand that every pet has their own routine and personality, so I'll take the time to follow your instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, walking routines, medication (if needed), and any special preferences or restrictions.

“J’ai eu une excellente expérience avec Audrey comme gardienne pour mon chien. Elle a fait preuve d’un grand professionnalisme, de douceur et d’attention. On sent immédiatement qu’elle aime les animaux, et mon chien s’est rapidement attaché à elle. À mon retour, mon chien était heureux, en confiance et visiblement très bien traité. Je recommande Audrey sans hésitation à toute personne qui cherche quelqu’un de fiable et attentionné pour s’occuper de son animal.”

About: I have loved and cared for animals since I was a child. Growing up, I had experience caring for many different kinds of animals, including cats, dogs, chickens, ducks, geese, silkworms, butterflies, ants, and mantises. Because of this, I learned early how to observe animals carefully, understand their needs, and be patient and gentle with different personalities. What sets me apart is my lifelong love for animals and my attention to detail. I understand that every pet has its own routine, comfort level, and personality. Some pets need space, some need extra attention, and some simply need a calm, clean, and safe environment. I’m happy to follow each owner’s instructions carefully and provide feeding, fresh water, playtime, litter box cleaning, walks, companionship, and photo updates. I will care for your pet with patience, respect, and genuine love, just like I would care for my own. I’m also very attentive to animal body language and behavior. I pay close attention to their signals, habits, comfort level, and boundaries. I understand that animals communicate in subtle ways, through posture, movement, sounds, energy, and routine changes. This helps me respond gently and appropriately, whether a pet needs space, reassurance, playtime, or extra care. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I spend a lot of time at home and can provide regular attention throughout the day. I’m available for feeding, fresh water, playtime, litter box cleaning, photo updates, and gentle companionship. I’m also flexible with each pet’s routine and will follow the owner’s instructions carefully. In my home, I provide a calm, clean, and cat-friendly environment. We have experience caring for cats, and our home has litter boxes, cat toys, scratching posts, cat trees, cozy resting areas, and food and water bowls. I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and respected. I understand that every pet has a different personality, so I give shy cats space and offer attention to cats who enjoy company. I keep the litter area clean, follow feeding instructions carefully, and send photo updates so owners can feel reassured while they are away. In a client’s home, I will respect their space, follow their instructions, keep everything tidy, and make sure their pet has fresh water, food, a clean litter box, and calm companionship.
About: Les chiens ont toujours occupé une grande place dans nos vies. On a tous les deux grandi avec eux et on a adoré chaque instant. Au fil des années, on a partagé notre maison avec un basset hound, un bouvier bernois, un toy poodle, un carlin et un berger de pologne, et on les a tous entraînés nous-mêmes. Chacun avait sa propre personnalité et son propre tempérament, et chacun nous a appris quelque chose de nouveau ! On est un couple actif et on adore vraiment emmener les chiens en course ou en longue balade. On n'a pas de chien à la maison en ce moment, alors honnêtement, ce serait un vrai plaisir de se balader et de courir avec le vôtre. Que votre chien soit du genre canapé ou débordant d'énergie, on s'adaptera à son rythme et à son style. Dogs have always been a big part of our lives. We both grew up with them and loved every moment of it. Over the years, we've shared our home with a basset hound, a bernese mountain dog, a toy poodle, a pug, and a polish lowland sheepdog, and trained them all ourselves. Each one had their own personality and temperament, and each one taught us something new! We're an active couple and genuinely love bringing dogs along for runs or long walks. We currently don't have a dog at home, so honestly, it would be such a pleasure to go on walks and runs with yours. Whether your pup is a couch potato or a bundle of energy, we will adapt and match their style. On travaille tous les deux de la maison la plupart du temps, ce qui nous donne une belle flexibilité dans nos journées. On peut facilement intégrer des visites et des promenades à notre routine, sans que ça soit fait à la va-vite. Que ce soit une balade le matin, un check-in en milieu de journée ou une visite en après-midi, on s'adapte à l'horaire de votre animal. We both work from home most days, which means our days are pretty flexible. We can easily fit drop-in visits and dog walks into our routine without it feeling rushed. Whether it's a morning walk, a midday check-in, or an afternoon visit, we're able to adapt to your pet's schedule rather than the other way around! Quand on se rend chez vous, notre priorité c'est que votre animal se sente en sécurité et à l'aise dans son propre espace. On sait que les animaux sont toujours plus détendus dans un environnement familier, alors on respecte leurs routines, leurs habitudes, et on prend le temps de laisser les animaux plus timides ou nerveux apprivoiser notre présence à leur propre rythme. Pour les promenades, on reste attentifs en tout temps. On observe le langage corporel, on reste dans des zones sécuritaires et on s'assure que chaque sortie soit une belle expérience pour votre chien. Votre maison et votre animal sont entre des mains attentionnées et bienveillantes ! When we come to your home, our priority is making sure your pet feels safe and comfortable in their own space. We know that animals are always more relaxed in a familiar environment, so we follow their routines, respect their habits, and take the time to let shy or nervous pets warm up to us at their own pace. For dog walks, we stay attentive at all times. We keep an eye on body language, stay in safe areas, and make sure every outing is a good experience for your pup. Your home and your pet are in careful, caring hands!
“Every time Pickle and Bruce stay with Claudia, they have the absolute best time. I can tell by how tired they are at the end of the day that they had so much fun! Thank you Claudia for taking such good care of the boys and making this whole process stress free and very efficient. I would recommend you a hundred times again :)”
“Netra and Julian are amazing dog sitters. They took their time to get to know our dog. Our dog can be anxious when left alone but they were very patient with him and did their best to comfort him. They went for a long walk, played pet him when necessary! Your dog is in very good care with this lovely couple.”
About: Over 20 years in handling dogs Kara: grew up with huskies and had her own until her passing from cancer a year ago Gabby: had an American Staffordshire for 11yrs until his recent passing We both know what it means to handle stubborn/strong headed dogs. We currently have a 2.5 yrs old husky/swiss shepherd mix who is a rescue. She is very calm and gets along well with other dogs. There is always one of us home to take care of the dogs, give medication, take them out for a walk or just cuddle up with them. We have a two floor house with a backyard which makes it easy to manage two dogs or more. We are Very comfortable with administering medications (we had a dog with cancer medication and another with seizure medication)
About: With 14 years of experience caring for dogs of every breed, size, and personality, I understand that every pet is unique and deserves attentive, loving care. Every dog I have had the privilege of looking after holds a special place in my heart, and there’s plenty of space for more! I look forward to the opportunity to care for your pets as if they were my own - providing them with the love, patience, and attention they deserve while giving you peace of mind. 🐶❤️ I have the ability to work both from home and the office, which allows me to adapt my schedule to meet your pet’s needs. Whether your dog requires walks, companionship during the day, or a consistent routine while you're away, I can often adjust my availability accordingly. Daily walks in nature are already a part of my routine, and I genuinely enjoy having a four-legged companion join me whenever possible 🐾❤️ Having the ability to work from home allows me to provide your pet with my full attention and a calm, predictable environment where they can feel safe and at ease. Whether they enjoy playtime, cuddles, or simply having someone nearby, I take the time to understand each pet’s unique personality and needs. Over the years, I have cared for a wide range of dogs, from puppies learning the ropes of potty training, to young and energetic dogs who thrive on activity and engagement, to senior dogs who prefer a gentler pace and plenty of time to rest. No matter their age or temperament, I strive to create a trusting environment where pets feel comfortable, loved, and cared for as if they were my own.
“Gabriela & Phil were absolutely amazing taking care of my dog! Gabriela was very proactive in terms of communication and followed instructions very carefully. She sent me pictures during the day of my dog and took him for a walk. I would for sure trust Gabriela & Phil with my dog again :)”
About: Since childhood, caring for animals has always been a huge part of my life. After recently relocating from Toronto to Montreal, I’ve continued doing what I love most — giving pets the tender, attentive, and loving care they deserve. Over the years, family and friends have trusted me with all kinds of precious pets, including tropical fish, rabbits, parrots, hamsters, kittens, mature cats, and dogs of many breeds such as German Shepherds, Pomeranians, Scottish Terriers, Dachshunds, and more! With 35+ years of hands-on pet care experience, I can confidently guarantee your furry (or feathered!) companion will be in caring and capable hands. I currently have a miniature Dachshund named Milo, whom I adopted from a Montreal rescue when he was just 7 months old — and now he’s almost 13 years younger! Milo absolutely loves making new playful friends and enjoys daily and weekly companionship. Your paw-purr baby will receive fully dedicated, attentive care including: • 15–30 minute walks every 2–3 hours • Plenty of cuddles, affection, and playtime • Careful attention to feeding routines and special needs • Frequent photo and video updates hourly and/or daily Being a true animal lover isn’t just something I do — it’s simply who I am! 🐇🐠🐕🦺🐢🐈🦎🐟🦜🐾 Working full-time from home allows me to offer flexible scheduling throughout the week, including weekends. I also provide optional pick-up and drop-off services for a small additional fee for added convenience. 🐾 I take pride in maintaining a very clean and well-organized home—something friends and family would happily confirm. My bright 1-bedroom unit receives plenty of natural sunlight and features hardwood floors, along with soft plush toys to ensure a safe and comfortable space for your pets to play.
“We were visiting Montreal and wanted to see the sights so we booked Sarah for Doggy daycare for a day. I was very happy with her service (even offered to grind his nails). She was incredibly accommodating and sent me updates throughout the day. You can tell she is great with dogs and is very caring. Overall, it was a great experience and I highly recommend her.”
About: Hello everyone! I've always been a passionate animal lover. Growing up, I was surrounded by pets; I had a parrot, 2 cats, and a dog, and they taught me what unconditional love looks like. I have more than 16 years of experience caring for dogs, and I offer basic training with treats (sit/down/stay/come). A walk in the park is therapeutic, especially with a buddy by my side I truly cherish time spent with pets and am inspired by their perspective. To me, happiness is cuddles and long walks with a wagging tail beside me. Pets understand us like no one else does, and that bond means the world to me. The connection between pets and people never stops amazing me, I can't get enough of it. My curiosity drives me to understand each pet individually, so I can care for them in the way that suits them best. I promise your buddy will be loved, well cared for, and always excited to come back to me! :) I work from home, I am pretty flexible. I take breaks to go to the park on lunch and evening, I would love to have some company! I am observative and attentive to pets needs, I walk and feed pets on time and they're always happy to see me again! We become good friends :)
“Rojina is super great! This was our first time using the app to have Yogi stay outside of our home and Rojina made sure everything went smooth smooth smooth! She is professional, flexible and very comforting! It seemed her dog was also very friendly with Yogi, which was the cherry on top! We will definitely be doing more doggy day care sessions with you :) Thanks again!”
About: I am a highly responsible young professional that has been surrounded by animals my entire life. I grew up with cats and an australian cattle dog, and more recently cared for a sweet little shih tzu that my parents adopted. With also a background in horseback riding, I am entirely comfortable taking care of animals if all shapes and sizes! While I don’t currently have pets in my own home, I regularly pet-sit for friends and family. I have experience providing walks, drop-in visits and multi-day sitting for a variety of animals, including so far australian shepherds, greyhounds, cats and more. I am a very active person with a deep love for nature and the outdoors. I am always thrilled to take your furry companions on long walks or outdoor adventures as they want or need! I recently completed my master’s degree at Yale and will be starting my new job at the end of September, which leaves me with several weeks of great availability. To combine business with pleasure, I’d love to use this time to spend time with animals while earning a little extra income. Because of this, I can offer a very flexible schedule with plenty of open time slots for the rest of the summer. My home environment is best suited for small dogs and cats. I live in a condo, but it's very close to a wooded area with trails that allow for walks in a peaceful, safe location. For care outside my home, I'm happy to adapt to your needs!

“Valérie est très attentive au besoins de mon chien. Je suis surpris à la vitesse quelle est capable de connecter et créer un lien en si peu de temps. J’ai amplement confiance en Valérie de la sécurité de mon chien”
About: I grew up with 30+ bunnies in my backyard, and had 3 cats. My mom still has 2 rescued dogs and 4 rescued cats and 1 bird that i babysit sometimes while working from home. I currently live with my sister that has a small pugchi mix so i’m used to being the babysitter for her as well when she goes to work or on trips. I took care of 2 ex-boyfriend’s dogs that were a german shepherd and a golden retriever. I work from home 100% of the time (so I can stay for as long as needed and give your home and furry friends all the love and attention they deserve!) All i need is for you to have reliable Wi-Fi i can connect to in order to work. Im able to give your pet attention throughout the whole day and go for potty breaks when needed. Walks would be before work, during lunchbreak and after work. I speak FR and EN. I can give you updates and pictures as much as you need to feel like your baby is safe. I’m a very calm person and would be working on my computer wether it’s a weekday or weekend so your home is in good hands. I can also do a house clean for a fee if you’re interested.
About: I have taken care of dogs, bunnies, cats, for 10+ years. My strength has been in caring for animals with anxiety, nervousness, or shyness, and bringing them comfort and a positive environment. I am very good at reinforcing training for the young ones to provide them consistency and stability in their routine. I am gifted in reading animals and having a lot of patience, and a great passion for them. This allows me to connect with them really effectively and be able to create a safe and loving experience for your fur babies! Pet care fits really naturally into my routine. I work full‑time as an operations manager from home, which gives me a lot of flexibility during the day for walks, check‑ins, playtime, and just being present. I’m not rushing in and out between commitments—your pet gets real attention worked into my day, not squeezed in as an afterthought. I used to dog sit in my own home and absolutely loved it, but after moving, my landlord no longer allows pets. Continuing to care for animals in clients’ homes is my way of keeping that connection I genuinely miss. Spending time with pets is something I want to do, not just something I’m fitting in. Because my schedule is flexible, I can adapt to your pet’s needs—whether that’s midday walks, medication timing, extra companionship during the workday, or sticking closely to an established routine. It ends up feeling very natural and consistent for them, which I know makes a big difference. For me, pet care is a grounding, enjoyable part of my week—and for your pet, it means calm, reliable care from someone who truly enjoys being there! When I care for pets in your home, I treat it like it’s their space and their routine, not just a place I’m visiting. I stick closely to your instructions—feeding schedules, walk times, meds, house rules—so everything feels as normal as possible for them. I make sure they get plenty of attention, play, and comfort, whether that means active time or just being a calm, reassuring presence nearby. I’m respectful of your home, keep things clean and tidy, and always prioritize safety (doors secure, leashes on, food stored properly). I also love sending updates and photos so you can see how your pet is doing and feel totally at ease while you’re away. My goal is simple: your pet feels relaxed and well cared for, and you come home to a happy animal and a home just the way you left it.

About: Les chiens ont toujours occupé une place importante dans ma vie. J'aime apprendre leur personnalité, observer leur langage corporel et créer un lien de confiance avec eux. Il y a quelques années, j'ai été bénévole à la SPCA, où je promenais les chiens et les photographiais afin de créer leur profil d'adoption. Plus récemment, j'ai gardé pendant une semaine la chienne de ma cousine, une Staffordshire Terrier de 9 ans. Cette expérience m'a permis de développer une belle complicité avec elle tout en respectant sa routine : promenades quotidiennes, repas selon sa diète, périodes de jeu, repos et beaucoup d'attention. Je crois qu'un chien s'épanouit lorsqu'il se sent en confiance et que sa routine est respectée. Je prends donc le temps de m'adapter au tempérament de chaque chien afin qu'il se sente en sécurité et bien accompagné pendant votre absence. Mon horaire flexible me permet d'offrir des promenades et des visites à domicile tout au long de la semaine. J'aime marcher, être à l'extérieur et passer du temps avec les chiens. Veiller à leur bien-être tout en respectant leur routine est une activité qui s'intègre naturellement à mon quotidien. Je n'offre pas de garde à mon domicile, mais je me déplace avec plaisir chez vous pour les promenades et les visites à domicile. Je privilégie le respect de la routine de votre chien afin qu'il conserve ses repères et se sente en confiance pendant votre absence. Selon ses besoins, je veille à ses repas, ses promenades, ses sorties pour ses besoins, ses moments de jeu, son hydratation et son bien-être. Je peux également administrer des médicaments par voie orale en suivant les instructions du propriétaire. Mon objectif est qu'il se sente en sécurité et reçoive toute l'attention qu'il mérite jusqu'à votre retour.

About: I work mostly from home, am reliable, caring and very active. I don't have a yard, however I live close to large parks and beautiful areas to go exercise dogs. My personal dog is high energy, we are constantly out for adventures. I am a dog trainer as a hobby, lots of understanding of canine body language/ behavior/needs, tons of puppy experience and I love high drive, high energy dogs. I work from home, can provide walks and exercise especially in the morning, the best way to start the day. During work hours, i can provide potty breaks whenever necessary No yard, but plenty of areas walking or driving distance to go move with dogs, no matter the weather conditions, dogs must move !

About: I've been around dogs and cats for as long as I can remember. Growing up, there was always a pet in my home, so caring for animals has been a natural part of my life since childhood. Over the years, I've gained experience with pets of different ages, sizes, and personalities, and I've learned that every animal has unique needs and deserves patient, loving care. I currently have a very flexible schedule, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the pets in my care. I'm available throughout the day for walks, drop-in visits, playtime, feeding, and companionship, and I'm happy to work around your pet's usual routine to help them feel comfortable and secure. Your pet's safety, comfort, and well-being are my top priorities. I understand that every pet has their own routine and personality, so I'll take the time to follow your instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, walking routines, medication (if needed), and any special preferences or restrictions.

“Anh and her family treated our dogs like they were their own dogs. Ryder and Daisygirl were so well taken care of while we were away. They sent us pictures of them everyday and that helped us to know that my babies were doing ok. Anh was very responsive so definitely there was no lack of communication there. My babies loved them, especially their son and their very chill and gentle dog Kind. We will definitely book with them again in the future! Thank you for watching our babies so well Anh and family!”

Mil merci !”
“Émilie et François-Louis ont bien communiqué avec nous dès la première rencontre, avant même qu’on réserve avec eux pour garder notre chienne. Ils étaient très gentils avec nous et surtout avec notre chienne. On a confiance en eux. Leur communication durant notre voyage était apprécié aussi, des photos et des courtes mises à jour pour nous rassurer que notre chienne allait bien.”
“Mae took incredible care of our senior dog with arthritis, providing frequent detailed updates and photos which took away any need to worry. She made our dog immediately feel comfortable with her and in her home, which is ideal for any pet. I'd highly recommend her to anyone!”

Ollie is the same dog he was before we left (for better or worse!) and is happy and rested after his 11 days with Zhen. We would not hesitate to board Ollie with him again during our next trip.”

“Susan was awesome! She has a calm and responsible energy and I felt very comfortable leaving our dog with her. She gave me updates every day, pictures, and comments on how Kaia was doing. I would definitely be using her again in the future for dog sitting. Thank you so much for your help, Susan!”
“Chanel has been an amazing sitter for our puppy Theo! She has been easy to communicate with from start to end, sending us daily pictures of him, which allowed us to travel with ease. I could not recommend a better puppy sitter!”
“Lin, Jing & Tini were fantastic hosts. As this was our first time leaving Skylar with a sitter, i will admit i had my reservations. But we’re so glad that Skylar was accepted. She had a wonderful time running through our host’s backyard snow maze with her new friend Tini. Our hosts were great with communicating updates and very easy to work with. So glad Skylar was in such good hands.”
“Sarah et Jonathan ont été incroyables avec Cooper. On a tout de suite senti qu’il était entre bonnes mains. Ils nous ont donné des nouvelles régulièrement, avec des photos, et Cooper avait l’air super heureux tout le long de son séjour. On est revenus retrouver un chien détendu, bien dépensé et clairement très bien traité. Ça paraît qu’ils aiment vraiment les chiens et qu’ils prennent ça à cœur. Merci encore à vous deux. Cooper reviendra avec plaisir:)”
“Melissa was honestly amazing with our dog Lana! We left her for 10 days and had total peace of mind the entire time. She's so caring, attentive and kind. We got regular updates and photos, which meant so much to us. When Lana came home, she was excited to see us but I think a part of her misses Melissa already!! She clearly bonded with her and was so happy there, getting all the love and attention. Melissa was also super accommodating and just really easy to communicate with. We’re so grateful we found her !! We’ll definitely be booking again. Highly, highly recommend!”
“Victoria est une perle! Elle assure une présence calme et sécuritaire avec de beaux espaces bien pensés et plusieurs jouets pour votre animal. Elle nous a envoyé plusieurs messages et photos lors du gardiennage pour nous donner des nouvelles de Watson et nous a même offert une photo imprimée en souvenir ! Nous la recommandons fortement et notre chien aussi! 🐾💕”
