About: Hello! My name is Sara! I’ve had pets my entire life and enjoy caring for others in addition to my own. I have experience caring for cats and dogs of different sizes and breeds, including those with extra needs such as medications. I have one dog of my own named Willow, she is a black lab mix with a lot of energy. While I'm not able to host other dogs at my place, I'm more than happy to take care of your pets in the comfort of their own home. I have a regular day to day job that has me out of the house for 8 - 9 hours a day Monday through Friday. What care routine do you follow in your home? The routine you have set is what will be followed while I'm caring for your pets.

About: I have grown up with dogs and cats throughout my life. I have owned and raised Bichon shih Tzu and German short haired pointers that were field trained. I am able to walk your dog/ cat or come for playdates on Tuesday's, Thursday's and Friday's, mornings or afternoons till 4pm. Monday and Wednesday I watch my grandkids. I would like to do a meet and greet with you and your pet before hand. I will send photos and updates to you so you feel comfortable. I abide by leash laws and keep your pet safe. I respect your privacy and ensure your home is secure when I pick up and drop off.

About: I have had animals in my home since I was 7 years old. I have had a variety of different animals, and along the way they have all left an imprint on my heart in there own way and have taught me many lessons. I currently live on a farm, and have many animals and experience with many different types of animals. I have taken two training courses, and now train all our own animals. I have also fostered in Calgary for 8 years before moving to the farm. I have specialized in rehabilitation, shy, abused, fearful, and neglected animals. I give these animals grace, a loving, soft and caring place to be able to find forever homes, and in some cases my home was home. I have had seniors, wounded, babies, and sick animals in my home. We have also had new births and babies on the farm. I am truly meant to be taking care of animals, definitely my calling. Now that my kids are grown I left the school system, and I am getting back to what I love. This along with my farm are my commitments. I can devote all the time needed to care for your fur family as required. I have a fully fenced 2 acre area for dogs to play. I do have a heated shop, and outdoor run available, that always are accessable. I have rooms in my home that when we take in dogs it's designated their space. Free roam is all day when home. But unless I need to leave, for the safety of your animals, a round wire area is designated for your pet. Will also depend on frequency and relationship built, these dynamics could change over time.

“Alexandra looked after my kitties with daily visits for a week while we were away on vacation. She sent daily photos and updates which let me know my furbabies were well cared for. Even when unexpected car troubles arose she still found a way to honour her obligations and ensure our kitties were taken care of. Would book again!”

About: I’ve been a loving dog dad for a few years now and an animal lover my whole life. We’ve had puppies to older dogs in our care. Able to handle them with lots of love and care while having loads of fun with them. I am currently working part time job and have lot of free time in the evenings/weekends. I can watch your dog overnight and can take them for walks as well. All my friends and families have dogs and the we all enjoy each others company. I keep my dog in crate throughout the night and take him for regular walks in the evenings/weekends. I can adjust my skill set based on what is required/liked by the dog in that moment. I can understand that pets can get nervous and need some time to adjust and that’s where they find me most comfortable.

About: Hi! I’m Marisa, I’m an animal lover to my core. I have knowledge and experience caring for animals through my employment at multiple pet stores, research, and caring for my own animals. I’ve spent time volunteering at the human society. I have pet sat for friends and family as well as grew up in a home where we ethically bred dogs and provided boarding for dogs. I have a dog of my own, a goofy couch potato named Nova. She loves to make friends and play with other dogs. Friendly with cats. Fully vaccinated. I will provide attentive loving care you can trust for your fur babies. I am currently home full-time. Other than going out for an hour or two at a time for errands, I usually stick around the house or yard. I love being outdoors and dog walking gets me out of the house. I have a large fenced backyard. I know of many paths and fenced dog parks near me. I have access to reliable transportation and don’t mind driving around the city for in home visits.

“Andrea was wonderful, extremely responsive and great to communicate with. She helped us out on the Christmas Eve and Christmas Day so we could spend some time away from home. You can tell she really cared for our kitties and took great. Pictures will definitely hire again and recommend.”

“Hired Brianna to look after my animals over Easter and she did a great job with communication before during and after her care. Would definitely recommend her!”

About: I have taken care of dogs and cats since I was 7. Everything started at my grandma’s house where I used to pet sit her cat which led to me owning a cat and a dog at our house which I had to pet sit when my mom and dad were away. My loves for pets started growing since then and am currently doing it with for 2 years here in Rover. I do petsit for our friends when they go away for family vacations and this has been an amazing experience. I do believe with my experience, we will be your perfect pet sitters🐶🐱 We are both working full-time and we are open to working weekdays and weekends too. We are in the house weekdays 5pm till 8am next morning and available in the house all day on weekends. We like going for walks and we can put your pets into our daily evening walks routine. Any suggestions on how to care for your pet or what your pet likes the most, are welcome😊

About: I've been a loving pet owner for over 30 years, ever since my kids were little. Now that they're all grown, I have even more time (and love!) to dedicate to caring for your furry family members. With decades of experience and a genuine love for all animals, I treat every pet like one of my own—with patience, kindness, and plenty of snuggles. Whether it's a walk, a cuddle, or special care, your pets are in safe, loving hands with me! Shelly I’m currently working from home. Looking to be able to help care for pets in my home. And provide loving space for them to feel safe while you are away from them. I have a back yard that is fully fenced. I have a large crate of you are needing that to be used and I have a well trained dog that would love some company. If this isn’t something you want other arrangements can be made to have separate areas for them.

About: As a dedicated pet lover with a deep passion for animals, being a pet sitter is not just a job for me, but a calling. I believe that pets are beloved members of our families, and they deserve the highest level of care and attention when their owners are away. With years of experience in pet care, including volunteering at local animal shelters and fostering animals in need, I have honed my skills in providing exceptional care for a variety of pets, including dogs, cats, birds, and small mammals. I understand the unique needs and personalities of different animals, and I am committed to providing a safe, nurturing, and stimulating environment for them. One of my top priorities as a pet sitter is the health and safety of the pets in my care. That's why I require all pets to be up-to-date on vaccinations to ensure the well-being of both the visiting pets and those in my home. This policy ensures a healthy and secure environment for all furry guests. I have a very secure location in my house where they are allowed to roam freely in the house with my small yard. I prefer the environment where the client is more comfortable towards its furry being as I understand animals love to stay more where they have grown up. I'm open to stay at client's house for a day or two for house sitting. As a pet sitter, I offer a range of services tailored to the needs of each individual pet, including regular exercise, feeding, bathing, and administering medication if necessary. I am also skilled in handling emergencies giving pet owners peace of mind knowing that their beloved pets are in capable and caring hands. Above all, my motivation to be a pet sitter stems from my unwavering love and passion for animals. I am dedicated to providing the best care possible for pets, creating a stress-free and enjoyable experience for them, and building lasting relationships with both the pets and their owners. I’m currently working from home, as my job offers me a flexible environment to work which helps me fulfill my passion of taking care of pets. On weekends I’m free so I can take full time care. I work according to the client’s need as they know their children better. There are no restrictions in my house as the little ones will not be chained or caged unless required as per the clients request as I believe they should have their own freedom and should feel like home.

About: I have had pets since I was young, and I have always been responsible for taking care of those animals, whether it’s walking them, cleaning up after them, bathing them, training them, and overall just making sure the animals are living in a very high-quality environment. I have both a cat and a dogs. My dog is a bit larger, so I am knowledgeable on how to properly take care of a larger dog. I have also taken care of small dogs that my family and friends have had. Overall, I find I get along great with any animal! Respecting their boundaries is very important to me! I just finished my first year of university and I am working over the summer! I work most days but with a flexible schedule that allows me to check on your pets throughout the day! In my home my dog is outside and inside, but our cat stays inside. I value their safety, and although my dog is outside sometimes, I check on them frequently and give them constant attention to ensure that they are okay. In a clients home, I will follow their guidelines on whether or not the pets are indoors or outdoors, and I will give frequent attention to maintain their safety and well-being.

About: I lived with a friend on a hobby farm. She showed me the ropes. I learned how to take care of all animals big and small. I am willing and able to assist in medicine administration. I have tons of free time that I’d love to dedicate to ensuring your furry friend has their needs through the day and even when you’re on vacation I work from home, starting up my own business but I have free availability pretty much all day. I hardly ever leave the province and can dedicate as much time needed with your fur babies as you need! I won’t have pets in my home as I have a cat myself, but I will ensure I know where all food, treats, toys and everything else they require before you leave. I will ask for an emergency response plan in the event I need to get ahold of you asap. I also have my own reliable transportation and will ask for the vet you use in dire emergencies. I will also supervise play time as I know how quick everything can go sideways. I also am very clean, if there’s a mess from your pet, it’ll be cleaned. And I have no problem cleaning litter boxes as well.

“Gabriella was courteous and peasant. She was very timely, and even stayed longer than booked with our pup. Thanks for your help Gabriella!”

About: I’ve cared for all kinds of pets, from energetic youngsters to calm seniors. I’m comfortable with medical care like pills and injections, follow routines closely, and adapt easily to each pet’s personality. I’m patient, observant, and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals—whether that means playtime, cuddles, or just keeping them company and comfortable while you’re away. 💛🐶🐱 Pet care fits perfectly into my routine. I’m currently not working, so I have plenty of time, flexibility, and attention to give your pet. I’m available for walks, playtime, feedings, medications, and just being there to keep your pet happy and comfortable throughout the day. 🐾 I create a calm, safe, and clean environment where pets can relax and feel at home. I carefully follow all instructions, routines, and safety guidelines, including feeding, medications, and special needs. I’m attentive, gentle, and always keep an eye on behavior or health changes. Whether in my home or yours, I treat every pet with respect, patience, and the same care I’d give my own.

About: Dogs have always been a huge part of my life. I grew up with a poodle and now share my life with my beautiful Brittany Spaniel, so I truly understand how much our dogs mean to us—they’re family. I treat every dog in my care like my own, making sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. Whether your pup loves long walks, playtime, or just some extra cuddles, I pay close attention to their personality and needs so they have a happy, stress-free experience. Being a true dog person means I know how important trust is, and my goal is always to care for your dog as if they were my own. At the moment I have a very flexible schedule while I look for a more permanent job, which makes pet care a great fit for my routine. I’m newly pregnant and already spend a lot of my time with my own dog, so caring for other dogs throughout the day feels very natural to me. Because I have my own Brittany Spaniel, I already have a daily routine of walks, feeding times, and making sure dogs get plenty of attention and exercise. I just need to make sure I’m home in the evenings for my dog’s dinner, but I’m very open to working out schedules that work well for everyone. I love the idea of spending my days with dogs and making sure they feel cared for, happy, and safe. At the moment I’m offering pet care in clients’ homes, as I’m not able to host other animals in my home right now. I’m happy to come to your home to care for your pet so they can stay comfortable in their familiar environment. When I care for pets, I focus on making sure they feel safe, loved, and well looked after. This includes walks, playtime, enrichment, feeding, and of course lots of cuddles and attention. I also make sure to follow your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible so they feel relaxed while you’re away. My goal is always to treat your pet like family and give them the same love and care I give my own dog. P.s will be moving soon so having dogs in my house will change.

“Dana was excellent We have 4 dogs and she came on Cmas day to our house which is quite far outside of the city limits-to check on them as well looked to make sure all the horses were accounted for as they are turned out. She went above and beyond and even left treats and toys for the dogs. Highly recommend!”
