Pet Sitting Sarnia

“Danika must have super powers. My cat is very shy/scared and Danika had him cuddling in less than 20 mins. I knew my baby was in safe capable hands after that. She made sure my kitty had adequate snuggles and play time and took the cutest photos of him. I am actually still shocked that my cat wasn’t hiding for the week straight. She went above and beyond and brushed him too!! I came home to some adorable Polaroids of my baby as a gift it was so thoughtful. Thank you so much Danika!!!”

“Elena was fantastic when looking after my mother's cat, Suzie, while she was away on holidays. I very much appreciated the videos, photos and reports every drop in visit. We could be assured Suzie was in great care. Elena was always prompt responding to messages. I definitely hire Elena again.”

“Marlena did a couple drop in visits while we were away for a night and gave us such peace of mind with our dogs care.”

About: I’ve been an animal lover my entire life and have plenty of hands-on experience caring for both cats and dogs. I’ve personally had four cats over the years, so I’m very comfortable with feeding, litter box care, playtime, different personalities, and giving cats the space they need to feel safe and comfortable. I also have experience dog sitting, including caring for an older Australian Shepherd. I understand that every pet has their own routine, energy level, and needs, and I’m happy to follow your instructions closely to keep them comfortable while you’re away. I’m patient with shy or nervous animals and understand that some pets may prefer to hide or take their time warming up to someone new. Whether your pet wants lots of attention and playtime or simply needs someone dependable to check in, provide fresh food and water, clean up, and make sure everything is okay, I’m happy to help! I work full-time as a chiropractor here in Sarnia, but my schedule gives me plenty of flexibility to fit pet care into my daily routine! During the week, I have a 1.5-hour lunch break from 12:00–1:30 PM, which gives me the opportunity to come home or stop in for midday visits, walks, feeding, playtime, and bathroom breaks. I’m finished work by 6:00 PM each day, so I’m available for evening walks, drop-ins, feeding, and quality time with your pets. On Fridays, I’m available after 4:00 PM, and I have good availability on most weekends. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, so pet sitting fits naturally into my routine. I’m happy to work with your pet’s usual schedule as much as possible so they can stay comfortable and maintain their normal routine while you’re away. I treat every pet like they’re my own! 🐾 I know that each cat or dog has their own personality, routine, and comfort level, so I always follow the owner’s instructions closely and take the time to help their pet feel safe and comfortable with me. In a client’s home, I’ll make sure pets are fed on schedule, have fresh water, get plenty of playtime, attention, cuddles (if they want them!), and regular walks or potty breaks for dogs. For cats, I’m happy to clean litter boxes, provide enrichment and playtime, and give them affection while also respecting their space and independence. I also understand how reassuring updates can be when you’re away, so I’m happy to send photos and updates so you know your pet is happy, safe, and well cared for. ❤️

About: My husband and I shared our home with Duke, a silly, loving rescue who was part of the family for eight years. He taught us that every dog has their own personality, quirks, and story, and I bring that same patience and love to every dog I care for. Before Duke, I worked as a dog walker, so I'm experienced with small and large breeds and comfortable with any harness, gear, or ability level. I have a soft spot for senior dogs and plenty of patience for anxious or reactive pups. I'm experienced with leash pulling, reactivity, and separation anxiety, and I'll go at your dog's pace to build trust. Because I come to your home, your dog gets to stay in their own familiar space, which is especially comforting for seniors and nervous dogs. For energetic dogs, I love long adventurous hikes. I have lots of free time and give every visit my full attention. I'll keep you in the loop with photos, videos, daily written updates, and calls or texts whenever you'd like. Your dog will be treated like family! My schedule is very flexible. I can accomodate pretty much any walk times, last-minute requests, early mornings, evenings, weekends, and holidays (except Christmas day). Whether your schedule changes at the last minute or you need a midday walk, I can almost always make it work. I'm doing gig work all winter this year, and getting to spend time with animals is a great bonus. I never have to rush your dog through a walk or cut a visit short. Every visit gets my full attention, and your pet will absolutely get the time they deserve. For longer term visits, my husband would come sit with me too. He works remotely and this winter we'll primarily be living at his parents' place - so we're also hoping to find opportunities to get out of the house for a few days. He's as big an animal lover as I am, and will bond with your pets instantly. I come to you, so your pet can stay in their own familiar space with their own bed, toys, and routine. I am great at learning pet routines, quirks, and preferences, from their favorite walking route to what helps them relax or sets them off. I will follow your instructions closely, whether that's a particular harness, a feeding schedule, or a few extra minutes of cuddles. For walks, I match your dog's pace and energy. That might be an hours long adventurous hike for an active pup or a slow, gentle stroll for a senior. After every visit, you'll get photos, videos, and a written update, and I'm always happy to text or call if you'd like. I leave your home exactly as I found it, and I treat your pet like my own.
