House Sitting in Selkirk

“I came home to a very happy kitten. I was nervous to leave her so long. So I asked for not too much info. Holly just let me know all was good so I don't know details. But my kitten seemd healthy and playful and cuddly when I returned and the place tidy. She was as Holly said in "good hands."”

About: I’ve taken care of my cat Lincoln for 9 years now, and am unable to adopt a dog because of the apartment I live in. I would love to spend some quality time with dogs however, I miss them so much! I’m currently working part time and trying my best to spend all my free time outdoors, I would love a dog companion for my walks! My cat has remained an indoor cat ever since I have adopted him, and I’m very dedicated to making sure he stays safe and healthy!

“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: What sets me apart is my 11 years of hands-on experience raising my own dog from puppyhood to its senior years. I understand the patience needed for puppy training and the gentle, attentive care required for senior pets. I treat every guest with the same lifelong commitment and love I gave my own. Since I work from home, pet care is naturally integrated into my day. I provide constant supervision and companionship, taking regular breaks for walks, backyard playtime, and belly rubs. Your pet will never be alone and will enjoy a consistent routine right alongside me. I provide a secure, supervised, and loving environment. I specialize in maintaining consistent routines and constant monitoring to ensure every pet feels safe. From senior-friendly spaces to active puppy supervision, I use my 11 years of experience to manage potential risks and provide total peace of mind for every owner.

About: I grew up caring for my own family dogs. My mom had 3 boxers but I no longer live near her, and I miss walking and caring for pups :) I also have experience dog sitting for friends and clients when I lived in the Ottawa area. I would go to their house or the dogs would stay at my place. I love walking dogs. A special skill of mine is that have abundant experience walking up to 3 medium sized dogs at a time. I am also an especially gifted pooper scooper lol I am also very comfortable with big dogs. I am a reliable, responsible, caring soul, and would care for you pup(s) as one of my own! Thank you for considering me and I appreciate and don’t take for granted that you are trusting a family member in my hands! I work from home mostly - sometimes I have to go out of town for gatherings. My work schedule is flexible so I have plenty of time to accumulate the schedule and needs of a dog I am sitting. I can easily crate dogs if needed. My cabin is pretty small so there is not much room for a dog to get into mischief lol :)

About: I've trained dogs in multiple disciplines from the age of 14 on, lived with them for 19 years and I have now gained 6 years additional experience in the sport of dog sledding, I have 17 dogs of my own (your animal will not be with the pack unless permissionis given) and I have handled multiple hundred dogs in my life already :) Dogs are my passion and I love and care for them to my best ability, providing them with the best nutrition, balanced stimulation (mental and physical exercise) and the natural amount of recoup and rest time as well as top notch medical care and a lot of hugs and kisses :) I work from home and I have a very flexible schedule. My current pets and I go for 2 walks a day, before and after my tasks and multiple pee breaks in between. While your dog is here, their safety and well-being is my number one priority! Unless you specifically allow me to give the dog off-leash dog park time, all dogs will be leashed outside at all times for walks. Loose inside the house. They will have access to water 24/7 and I will feed them as often as they are used to it. The animal will always be supervised and I can attend to all needs with expertise.

About: Between my husband and I we have over 10 years of pet experience. Between growing up with animals and more recently fostering dogs, in addition to dog sitting for some friends we've had a wide variety of dogs in the house. I work part time which allows me the flexibility to spend lots of time with the dogs. I'm a morning person and enjoy getting up early to go for walks, and now that it's nice out I'm likely to be outside most of the day! We have a big fenced yard which is great for the dogs to run around and play. We also live in a quiet little town which is perfect for taking the dogs for walks with minimal distractions

“Fantastic! Thank you so much for taking extra great care of our dog while we were away. Oscar was so lucky to spend time and be cared for by you! We appreciate your thoughtful daily log and final comments too. 5 star!!”

“Alex was absolutely fantastic caring for our pets and home while we were away. We have a senior kitty who requires medication and huge pup with some serious separation anxiety, so leaving them was definitely tough. Alex handled everything with incredible care, patience, and professionalism. She communicated the perfect amount throughout our trip - enough to give us total peace of mind without overwhelming us, which really allowed us to relax and enjoy being away. It was clear from every update that our pets were happy, comfortable, and genuinely cared for. We would trust Alex again in a heartbeat and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, compassionate, and attentive pet sitter.”

Your pets safety and comfort is my top priority! My goals are to try and disrupt routines the least when you’re away from your pet as well as send regular updates and photos!

About: Had the love of pets my whole life. They have been a rock for me during the hard times. I helped sit many of my family members pets. I have taken a few rescues over the years and nursed them to full health. I am retired with lots of energy and my availability is extremely flexible. I can be available for anytime emergencies if needed as my schedules allows this. I have a fenced yard with a large gazebo dog house incase of rain.

I learned the ins and outs of animal care from a young age so I am well prepared to care for your pets! I've cared for dogs and cats my whole life so I'm used to animals with different personalities.

“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.”

“Arrisa stayed with our Frankie for 11 nights and we couldn't have asked for a better pet sitter. she met with us twice before hand so we could get to know her a bit which meant a lot. She sent us regular updates and pictures. Arissa even did all the laundry and cleaned the apartment...even baked croissants and left us some...yum! I know Frankie misses her as he keeps going into the spare bedroom where she slept looking for her. Thank you so much Arissa!”

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: 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.

About: I have been around animals all my life and have lots of experience with seniors dogs. I have administered different types of medications and had to make modifications to allow for more mobility. I currently go to school twice a week in Winnipeg and work at a daycare in Stonewall Monday-Wednesday. I am available evenings and weekends and afternoons Thursdays and Fridays. I don’t have a fenced yard but many trees and can provide a staked leash if preferred. I can do crating if you would like for inside as well. At your home I will be cleaning up after myself and your pet and will make sure all their needs are taken care of.

About: I have experience with small and big dogs! I have a chihuahua and a German shepherd! I enjoy taking them for walks and sniffing around the neighborhood I am currently available any day right now! I can administer medications! I have experience with big or small, high energy, timid and low energy! I will send you pictures everyday and I’m very good at following instructions that you give me before you go on your vacation! Thank you for trusting me!

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 had dogs and cats my entire life, so being around animals has never felt like work, it just feels normal. Our home always had two or more dogs at a time (of all sizes), so I’m very comfortable juggling big personalities, different energy levels, and all the chaos that comes with a happy pack. My family used to breed Mastiffs, which means I truly grew up raising puppies. I was there for the tiny, clumsy stages, the early training moments, and all the cuddles in between. Helping care for litters taught me patience, structure, and how important consistency is, especially with large breeds. I’ve also loved and cared for senior dogs (fostering), small dogs (had a couple little pomeranians), so I understand the softer side of things too. Slower walks, extra gentleness, watching closely for comfort and mobility, and making sure they still feel safe and happy. Animals have always been family to me. I’m big on affection, routine, and making sure every pet feels secure and spoiled in the best way. Whether your dog loves long walks, play sessions, or just being someone’s shadow, I’m happy to meet them exactly where they are. Pet care fits really naturally into my routine. I work Monday to Friday from 9 to 5, which makes me a great option for evening walks, check ins, and overnights during the week. I’m fully available on weekends, so I can dedicate plenty of time to longer stays or more active pups who need extra attention. I live in a house with two other girls who also love animals, so it’s a welcoming home environment with space and flexibility. Your pet’s routine and comfort always come first, and I’m happy to stick closely to whatever they’re used to. I know leaving your pet with someone else can feel a little vulnerable because they’re family. I care for animals the same way I care for my own, with a lot of attention, patience, and love. I’m careful about things like doors, gates, and sticking to their normal routine because I know how important those small details are. Whether I’m in your home or they’re in mine, I want them to feel safe, relaxed, and genuinely cared for, not just “watched.”
