Pet Sitting in Torbay

About: With over 20 years of experience providing quality pet care, I am passionate about ensuring every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. As a proud cat owner myself, I understand the importance of treating pets like family and always go above and beyond to meet their individual needs. Over the years, I have become the trusted pet sitter not only for friends and family, but also for friends of friends through word-of-mouth referrals. I have experience caring for pets of all sizes and personalities and am comfortable with everything from daily care and companionship to dog walking and exercise. Whether you need pet sitting in your home or mine, I provide reliable, attentive care tailored to your pet’s individual needs. No pet is too big or too small This is my second job, BUT my work hours are flexible. I never work more than 8 hours, and can work around pet care based on the needs of the client!! YOUR pet's safety, comfort, and well-being are always my top priorities. Whether caring for your pet in my home or in yours, I strive to maintain their regular routine to help them feel comfortable and secure. I carefully follow all feeding schedules, medication instructions, exercise requirements, and any special care requests provided by owners. In my pet-friendly condo, pets are always supervised and given plenty of attention, affection, and exercise through regular walks and playtime. When caring for pets in a client's home, I respect their space while ensuring their pets receive the same level of care and companionship they are accustomed to. I am attentive to each pet's individual personality and needs, and I am happy to provide updates and photos so owners can have peace of mind while they are away.

About: I’ve been pet sitting since I was 11, starting with family and close friends. I’ve now been caring for pet for 11 years! I absolutely love animals, meeting new ones and caring for them! I learned from working under the groomers at a pet salon and pet store how to brush, trim paw pads, and cut animal nails correctly. I now do my cats nails at home! I also know how to administer medication with a needle, as my dog had diabetes. I am in college typically from 8:30 to 3:30, with some days finishing earlier or later. I have the mornings before class, the breaks in between classes, and after classes to care for pets. I have an office job, but I often work from home, so that doesn’t affect my ability to check on pets. I find out any and all information regarding the pets and the home, and then confirm the information the day I start. I send daily updates, usually with photos!

About: I love animals and have had pets since I was young. I currently have two cats, lots of fish, and a very playful Golden Retriever but I have looked after all different kinds of pets! I've cared for all kinds of dogs (small to giant), cats, a tortoise, a bunny, a chinchilla, and fish. I would be so happy to take care of your furbabies, whether it's drop in visits, walks, or doggy day care in my home. I am available for doggy daycare on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays! For doggy daycare, up to 10 hours is included in the price. For daycare over 10 hours, an additional $10 charge will be applied. I have a very large fenced yard where your dog can run and play to their heart's content. I have also completed Dog/Cat First Aid and CPR that I can use in the unlikely event of an injury.

About: Friends and family have trusted me to look after their dog(s). I have three dogs of my own so I know how to keep them entertained and take care of them. I am a university student and work part time so I have spare time that I would love to fill with being around pets and helping out where I can. I ensure the dogs have enough to play with and keep them entertained as well as keeping them out of things that they shouldn’t be in and I can assist in some easier parts of training where needed.

About: I am very experienced with puppies, adults, and senior dogs, as well as cats and birds. I am quite comfortable administering medications and providing training and playtime. We have had our current dog since she was a puppy and took on a lot of the training responsibilities. I used positive reinforcement through pets and words of encouragement, treats, and clicker training. I have also taken care of a senior dog who required medications, physical support, and diapering. I have experience with large breed dogs as our previous dog was a Great Pyrenees who required regular walks, grooming, and playtime. We have had our 16-year-old cat since he was born. He is diabetic but is no longer insulin dependent. His diabetes is now managed with his specific diet, so I understand the importance of sticking to a plan and schedule. I am currently working part-time and would love to spend some time with your fur babies - snuggling on the couch or placing tug of war. I never walk dogs off-leash unless it's at an owner-approved dog park and inside an enclosed area. I always walk on the sidewalks where possible and I stay on the side of traffic. I am always cautious when entering a house with cats to ensure no escapes occur on my watch. I always follow the owner's training and house rules to the best of my ability. The pets' safety is my first priority and when unsure of what to do, I use common sense or I will call the owner for direction.

About: I personally had a cat and dogs around the age of 10. I currently have a dog soon to be 5 years old. For more than 5 years I took care of an elderly dog on a weekly basis and made visits to take care of pets in their owners. I work part-time and know my schedule one month in advance so I can offer my services from time to time according to my schedule. I speak French and English. Depending on the needs of your pets, I will follow your recommendations in order to keep the routine already established in your home and to keep them safe and happy

About: I’ve had animals since I was born always wanted more and love the energy they bring to a household. My best friends forever truly until I die. This summer I start a 35 hours a week summer position from Monday-Thursday 8-4 then Friday 8-11 (roughly). I am able to care for your pets in the am, in the evening, and during the weekend. Just cannot do pee breaks during the weekday. I will also adjust my rates due to this 8 hour inconvenience during the weekday. If that works for you I hope you can book with me soon!! I am aware of their surroundings and have experience working at a shelter where safety and cleanliness was a top priority I always do checks on my animals to ensure everything is okay.

I am a certified primary/elementary teacher with NLSchools, meaning I have full availability during the summer to give your fur-baby the best possible care while you are away. Following the end of summer vacation, I will be gone during the day (M-F) for periods of up to 8 hours. I will do my best to accommodate any/all of your pet’s needs. I understand that every dog is different and may require special/additional care. As a pet-sitter in your home, I will treat both your pet and your home with the utmost respect that they both deserve. ** Please note that my pets listed in my profile are family dogs that live with my parents. I keep them at my parent’s house when I am dog-sitting 😊

About: I have a huge passion for animals, especially dogs. I love keeping animals happy, and I'll love your dog like it's my own. I've had dogs my whole life, and I love the outdoors and walking. I'll make sure your dog gets lots of exercise, and I'll keep the walks fresh and new, bringing your dog to many different trails. I am completely comfortable with all sorts of dogs. I used to own a mix named Tickey, a Golden Retriver named Daisy, a King Charles Spaniel named Katie, and I now own a Portuguese Water Dog named Odin. I’ve done some dog walking for people while they were travelling for a few weeks and absolutely loved it. I cannot wait to meet your dog! I love making new friends, I feel like I have a special connection with animals because I am open and 100% comfortable. I work as a barista and am off almost every Monday, Thursday and Sunday. So I can walk anytime on those days. On days that I work I walk Odin every afternoon when I get off at 3, so I can walk your dog/s with Odin, or separately afterwards I have a fenced in yard that is all grass and it is always mowed and fully cleaned. I also have woods right behind my house that is great for walking

My love to care for animals is why I begin to offer dog walking and drop-in visits for both cats and dogs.

About: I have hands-on experience fostering dogs through the SPCA, which gave me the chance to care for pups of all ages, temperaments, and needs. On top of that, I’ve raised and trained my own puppy from the ground up, so I understand the patience and consistency needed for things like crate training, housebreaking, and leash manners. What sets me apart is that I treat every pet like family, with a balance of structure, love, and playtime. I dedicate weekends and my days off to caring for pets, which means I can give them my full attention without rushing. This makes it easy for me to stick to each pet’s schedule, whether that’s walks, feedings, or cuddle breaks. In my home, pets get a safe, clean, and comfortable environment with plenty of playtime and attention. I follow any feeding or medication routines exactly as instructed. When I’m in a client’s home, I respect their space while making sure pets feel loved and secure from walks and play to quiet companionship. My goal is to keep their routine consistent so they feel relaxed and cared for while you’re away.

“Heather pet sitted out two senior cats for 5 days when we had to go out of province for a family wedding. She did a great job! One of our cats needs medication twice a day and she administered it no problem. They loved her and did not hide when she came to visit. I felt very relieved having her watch the cats and felt like it was one thing I did not have to worry about while we were away. I would recommend Heather to anyone and would definitely book her again.”
