About: I have two years of hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats. What sets me apart is my ability to handle pets of all ages, from playful puppies to senior cats needing extra attention. I’m comfortable administering basic medications and following special care routines. I also offer personalized playtime, basic training reinforcement, and plenty of affection to make sure your furry friends feel right at home. I currently work part-time, which gives me plenty of flexibility to care for your pets. I’m available for boarding on weekends and weekdays after 2 PM. I can also accommodate short-term bookings if needed and will make sure your pets receive plenty of attention and exercise. I have a secure fenced yard ,who can keep your pet company if they’re social. For cats and more private pets, I offer quiet spaces where they can relax. I’m attentive to each pet’s specific needs and can easily accommodate special requests like medication or additional walks.

About: My passion for animals began at the age of 7, when I took care of a standard poodle and created agility courses for him, since I couldn’t have pets of my own. Since then, my love for animals has only grown, and today I am a proud parent to several companions. Each animal is unique, and I make sure to provide them with attentive care, as if they were part of my family. Caring for animals is an integral part of my daily routine. Between feeding, playtime, and maintaining a clean and stimulating environment, I care for my pets with love every day. I’m used to balancing active play sessions with quiet, relaxing moments. Having also raised a litter of kittens, I know how to adapt my routine to meet the needs of animals at every stage of their lives. Whether it’s for my own pets or others, providing consistent and attentive care comes naturally to me. Whether at my home or my clients’ homes, I always tailor my care to the specific needs of each animal. At home, I create a safe and stimulating environment, with spaces to play, relax, and feel right at home. My pets are used to sharing their space, which makes it easier to welcome new companions. Chez mes clients, je respecte les habitudes et la routine de l'animal pour assurer un maximum de confort en leur absence. Qu'il s'agisse de promenades, de jeux interactifs, de repas ou simplement de leur tenir compagnie, je veille à ce que chaque animal reçoive toute l'attention et les soins nécessaires pour se sentir en sécurité et épanoui.

About: My pet care experience comes primarily from caring for my own dog, who I was the primary caregiver and walker for throughout her 15 years. While living in Australia, our neighbour also entrusted us with caring for his 4-year-old Golden Retriever while he was at work. This included feeding her, taking her for walks, and keeping her at our home during the day. I’ve also regularly helped friends and family care for their pets while they were away, including feeding them, letting them outside, and making sure they were comfortable and well cared for. I’m responsible, attentive, and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. I'm currently unemployed as I am new to the area and moved here for my partners work. I am available at any time of day, any day of the week. I am very active and love to be outside rain or shine, so taking pets out on walks, to the park, or to hang out in the yard is aligned with my priorities. I am adaptable to the needs of your pet. I am active and able bodied so I would not struggle assisting a pet that is not as mobile. On the flip side, I love to be outside and active so I am happy to take long walks, spend time outside with your pet, and keep them stimulated with play such as fetch.

About: I've always had pets at home growing up such as dogs, cats and even reptiles ! I also have experience caring for fishes, rabbits, chickens and pigs. I understand how important it is to feel confident when leaving your pets in someone else's care, which is why I treat every animal as if they were my own. I am more than happy to follow your pet's routine, and will make sure you receive regular updates while you're away ! I look forward meeting you and your pets ! Français / English I am currently in school, which gives me a very flexible schedule. I’m available during weekdays and weekends and can adapt easily to your pet’s routine and specific needs. I have both a cat and a dog at home, so my space is fully equipped with a variety of toys and enrichment items. I carefully supervise all interactions between animals to ensure everyone’s safety. Pets are never left unattended outdoors, and for added security, I have a securely fenced yard to provide a safe environment during outdoor time.

About: Hi! I've been an animal lover my whole life with a particular love for dogs. I've been caring for my friends' pets for years and then started getting requests from some of their friends, and since I love it and found myself in a position where I need to find some more work, I figured I'd make myself available to more fur babies! I'm really only interested in caring for dogs, though I do love cats too, but there are allergies to contend with. I'm without any animals living here, so your dog can get undivided and attention. I'm happy to have them stay here, take them on frequent walks, and I can offer to work on some basic training skills if you like. I'm also available to walk from your place or just do drop-ins to give them some love! If you need someone to care for and spend some time with your pup, let me know! I'm working on a flexible schedule and often work from home, so I can dedicate my time around the needs of your fur baby. We can discuss your specific needs and make sure it all works. I have no other pets to worry about. I don't have a fenced in yard, but I live in a quiet neighborhood with time for frequent walks. I'm happy to bring your pup to the dog park if you prefer but I typically prefer to take on frequent long walks (if they are able). And for socialization, I have friends with well socialized neutral non-reactive dogs in fenced in yards for playtime (if you like).

“Melia very quickly bonded with our dog Bauer. She really provided an excellent and interesting workout for Bauer who is already fast asleep -likely for the whole night. Thanks again Melia for helping to make our family trip to Quebec City so much more rewarding knowing that Bauer was so well taken care of while we were able to enjoy some of the excellent restaurants. Merci beaucoup!”

About: I have several years of hands-on experience working with animals in both veterinary and pet care settings. I’ve worked as a client care receptionist in animal hospitals, where I regularly interacted with pets of all temperaments, assisted with handling animals, checked pets in for surgery and wellness visits, and helped administer medications when needed. I’ve also worked at PetSmart and a grooming salon, where I cared for animals daily, assisted groomers, bathed and brushed dogs, monitored pet behavior, and ensured pets were safe, comfortable, and happy. Through these roles, I’ve learned how to recognize stress signals, handle pets calmly, and provide compassionate care—especially for nervous or senior animals. I’m reliable, detail-oriented, and genuinely passionate about animal well-being. I treat every pet as if they were my own and always prioritize safety, comfort, and routine. I currently have a very flexible schedule, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time to pet care. I am an assistant basketball coach and have practices for 1–2 hours on Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Fridays. Outside of those times, I am available throughout the day for drop-in visits, walks, and pet care. I occasionally have games on weekends, but I still maintain availability before and after games and will always communicate clearly in advance. I’m reliable, organized, and happy to work around your pet’s routine! When caring for pets in their own home, I prioritize maintaining their normal routine to help them feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. I carefully follow all instructions provided regarding feeding, medications, walks, litter box care, and playtime. I always approach pets calmly and patiently, paying close attention to their body language and individual needs. I make sure they have fresh food and water, a clean environment, and plenty of attention and affection based on what they’re comfortable with. With my experience working in animal hospitals and pet care settings, I’m comfortable caring for pets of all temperaments, including shy, senior, or nervous animals, and administering medications when needed. I also respect your home by keeping things clean and secure, and I provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident your pet is being well cared for.

About: My husband and I are lifelong dog lovers with two dogs of our own. We have plenty of experience caring for dogs of different sizes, personalities and energy levels. We provide a safe, loving and comfortable home where dogs are treated like part of our family. We understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your dog, so we follow each owner’s routine and instructions closely and make sure every dog gets plenty of attention, affection, playtime and care. Matt and I are both home throughout the day, so your dog will have plenty of company, attention and supervision. We love having dogs as part of our daily routine and can easily accommodate regular walks, outdoor breaks, playtime and plenty of cuddles. Since we’re home, we can also closely follow your dog’s usual feeding, exercise and rest schedule to make their stay feel as comfortable and familiar as possible. Your dog’s safety and comfort are our top priorities. With both of us home throughout the day, dogs receive lots of attention and supervision and are rarely left alone. We carefully follow each owner’s instructions and keep dogs securely leashed outside. We take the time to learn each dog’s personality, routine and needs so they can settle in and feel safe, relaxed and loved in our home.
