Pet Sitting Thorold

“Kari was absolutely amazing! I can not speak enough positives about her, she far exceeded my expectations and made me feel very comfortable the entire time. One of my cats is more shy/ nervous around new people and I fully expected him to hide the whole time, however, by the end of the week my shy cat was sitting on her lap cuddling! She put both me and the cats at ease. I highly highly recommend Kari!”

“It was great to have Jacqueline take care of Walter while I was away. My usually timid cat did not cower and hide which means Jackie is quiet and caring. As I understand they had great conversations - lol. She made the entire process very easy and when I returned home she had the cat's food and dishes cleaned and orderly. Thank you from Jeff & Walter.”

About: I’ve had dogs throughout my life and have experience caring for them from energetic puppies to senior dogs. I understand that every dog has their own personality, routine, and needs, and I love getting to know what makes each one happy and comfortable.

Whether your pup is full of energy and loves to play or prefers a quiet day with lots of cuddles, I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. 🐶💕 My schedule is fairly flexible since I work part time, so I’m able to accommodate a variety of pet care needs and schedules.

My own kitties and dogs have their set routine, so i will make sure to always stick to yours routine! I’ll make sure your pets receive plenty of attention, companionship, and care while you’re away. I’m respectful of your home and will always leave everything clean and tidy. I also understand that every pet is different, so I take the time to learn their personality, preferences, and individual needs.

About: I’ve always loved dogs and enjoy getting to know each one’s unique personality!

I’m experienced with giving oral medications when needed and am comfortable following specific care instructions. Whether your dog is energetic and playful or prefers a cozy day on the couch, I’ll make sure they feel happy, safe, and well cared for.

About: Hi! I’m a professional psychologist with a deep understanding of emotional and behavioral needs and I bring that same empathy, patience, and awareness into caring for your dog. I don’t just watch dogs; I truly connect with them. I pay close attention to their unique personality, energy levels, and subtle body language so they feel safe, calm, and deeply understood while away from home.

About: Hi I’m Katrina! I am a nurse, lifelong animal lover, and a dog mom to a Cane Corso mix and a toy poodle mix❣️ I’ve been around dogs my entire life and genuinely love caring for them. Whether it’s walks, drop-ins, or dog sitting, my goal is to keep your pet comfortable, safe, and happy in their normal routine. Being in healthcare means I’m naturally attentive, responsible, and calm in different situations, which carries over into how I care for animals too. You can expect reliable care, lots of affection, and photo updates so you know your pet is doing great while you’re away. I treat every dog like they’re my own (with maybe a few extra belly rubs). If you’re looking for someone trustworthy and experienced, I would love to help!

About: I've had pets my whole life but it wasn't until I adopted a dog of my own that I truly learned what it means to care for one. I now have experience with reactive and fearful dogs, counter conditioning, desensitization, and canine enrichment. I just received notice of an indefinite layoff so I will have all the time in the world to do something I genuinely enjoy. I feed both my dog and foster dog using enrichment tools(snuffle, puzzle, Kong, find it) trim their nails with a Dremel weekly, give them meds daily. They're always so excited for their daily walks, rain or shine. Though our foster boy needs to be bundled up to handle the cold. I believe following a routine is important. Pets will be fed when they're used to, given meds as prescribed by your vet. Light grooming if requested (I may charge for more challenging grooms. Details can be discussed). If your dog is afraid of nail trims, brushing or anything else, we can work together on cooperative care to make necessary care less stressful for them.

About: My experience with pets is from back home in Brazil. I have at home a cat, 3 dogs, a turtle, and a bird (Yeah, a lot I know haha). Of all the pets that I have, I have a special connection with my dogs. They are like my shadow and always wants to stay next to me. I can’t even imagine how they are missing me since I moved to Canada, and I also miss them like crazy. Being a sitter will complete this part that I most miss from home. Im currently working full time during the week. I’m available for drop in’s and walks during the week from 07am to 8am / 05:30pm to 08pm. For house sitting I’m available starting Friday 05:30pm to Sunday 07pm. Message me if you have any questions. I care so much about the attention that is needed to the pets. They are so loyal with us and just wanna feel loved and cared of.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs for others since I was a kid. I had my own dog for 8 years which sadly passed away this year. I now became a cat dad due to work related schedules. I will take care of your pet as if they were my own. My job is usually a 9 to 5 schedule, therefore I am free most nights of the week and I am always available during weekends. I always make sure to adhere to the owners direction for their furbaby. Each pet has their own personalities and preference so I make sure to listen, to reassure them that I have their pets best interests. I like to know what their pets personalities so I can better understand on how to make their furbabies comfortable in my care.

“Emma and her husband did a wonderful job with our three cats. They made sure our babies were fed, had water and a clean litter box. Our trip was cut short but they were very understanding and adjusted the schedule. I highly recommend Emma and her husband if you need someone to not only take care of your pets but also give them some cuddles.”

About: Hi! I’m Holly, a lifelong dog lover who works from home, so your pup will get plenty of company and attention throughout the day. I have a 15 year old small fluffy white dog with medical needs, so I understand how important it is to trust someone with your dog’s care. Whether your dog is energetic and loves long walks, or prefers a slower pace and lots of cuddles, I’m happy to tailor their routine to what they’re used to. I’m comfortable with puppies, senior dogs, medication (including eye drops), special feeding routines, and dogs with separation anxiety who need a little extra patience or reassurance. I know every dog is different, and I take the time to learn their personality and routines so they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. I’ll keep you updated with plenty of photos and messages, so you can relax knowing your dog is in good hands. I’d love to meet you and your pup! I work from home, so I am available to take your dog on walks, playtime, and potty breaks as needed. There is a dog bed in my office for your pup to hang out with me! I am attentive to all specific instructions. If your pet has specific needs like personality quirks, separation anxiety, medication schedules, or is very routine-driven, just let me know and I’m happy to adapt. All dogs are different, so let me know how I can best replicate your typical schedule to provide some stability and comfort for your pet!
