About: I've grown up with animals and have taken care of friend and family pets over the course of my life (am now in my 40s). And I've been taking care of cats and dogs professionally for a few years now, from young to old, healthy to less healthy. I'm very good at bonding with the animals, adjusting to their own pace and ways of being and so making them feel at ease. I work from home, so I'm around the animals a lot. Being a freelancer, I make my own schedule and this flexibility makes it easy to attend to the pets' needs. I'm also an early riser so it's no problem to take care of them early on in the day. I only offer house-sitting so I'll be in your home and will work with that configuration as per your instructions to ensure the pet's safety and well-being.

About: I've got 25+ years experience owning cats, dogs, and small animals, fostering cats & kittens with a rescue organization, and being the go-to pet sitters for friends and family. We are pet lovers to the core and treat our pets like children! We'd love to take care of your furbaby while you are away. A family of 2 humans and 2 cats ourselves, we live just outside Sussex on a rural 2 acres of forest with a river, within 20 min of Fundy National park, 40 min to Moncton, and an hour to Saint John. I'm home all day and available for walks or visits any time. I do feeding, walking, playing, medications, brushing, bathing or just hanging out. I can send photos/updates and can do FaceTime calls with your pet while you're away. We can go out and socialize or stay in, whatever you and your pet prefer! ***All dogs must be friendly towards cats and other dogs*** I'm home all day and can provide one on one companionship and attention to your pets, available to do pickup & drop off, or road trips to the vet/pet store. I have an unfenced 2 acres of wooded property along the Kennebecasis for hanging out and playing, many trails nearby and space inside for a crate. My SUV has rubber mats for muddy feet!

Jean-Francois G.
“I have known Jean Francois for ten years; we met at a conference and have remained good friends, connecting frequently. He is quite meticulous in his work, as well as keeping his home clean and very orderly. He loves to interact with felines, they are his favorite animal, although he has a very soft spot in his heart for all creatures, and he has a very kind demeanor. I am a full time house and creature caretaker and I would not hesitate to have Jean Francois care for my home and beloved pets while I am away.”


Brie C.
“Always dependable! It was such a relief when I found Brie to Cat Sit while I was away. My job requires me to travel from time to time, and it was always a struggle to find someone to take care of my two cats...until I met Brie! It felt like such a bother to ask family and friends, especially on a short notice. Brie has always accommodated us! I highly recommend her!”
