House Sitting Troy

About: I’ve cared for dogs, cats, and small critters my entire life. Growing up, I was always the one walking, cleaning, and looking after our family pets. My love for animals led me to study wildlife and become a trained Wildlife Technician, giving me hands‑on experience with animal behavior, safety, and care. Availability • I work in Brantford Monday–Friday, 8:30–4:30 • Available for walks and drop‑in visits before 8 AM, after 4:30 PM, and a 30‑minute check‑in at lunch • Weekend availability varies and can be booked in advance As a Wildlife Technician, I can administer medications — needles included — and keep accurate records for your peace of mind. Your pet is truly precious cargo, and I treat them with the same care and attention I give my own. I have a senior dog and cat that includes walking, bathing, cleaning kitty litter, administering meds, general love and care. I will work around your schedule in the morning, evenings and weekends, outside of my 8:30-4:30 work schedule. I am a loving, confident, organized pet caretaker. I keep a good schedule, have a calm demeanour and ensure your pets and home are protected, clean and loved.

“Holly was a dream! I was anxious to leave my 7 month old dog and adult dog home alone for a whole day while at an event, as they usually have one of their humans at home. Holly was quick to communicate, and most importantly my two dogs and 3 cats love her! My puppy can be nervous with new people, and my other dog has separation anxiety. However, they were both able to settle easily after I left! They were happy and relaxed when I arrived home which made it easy to decompress after a long day. Plus, one of my cats really enjoyed a 2 hour snuggle with her on the couch! Safe to say, our pets were well taken care of by Holly -- loved and cared for the way we would. The photo updates throughout the day helped ease this anxious pet mom too :)”

“This was our first time booking with Vivian & we were very happy with the care she gave our dog. She walked him twice a day, was very attentive during playtime & provided updates with photos & comments. We will definitely book with Vivian again!”

About: Hi there! I’m a dedicated animal lover with years of experience caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments.I am currently 25 with a two-year-old dachshund. I have a full-time job with animals 3 days a week (which she is able to come with me too.) when I am not at work I would love to be hanging out with your furry ones. Whether your dog is playful and high-energy or calm and easygoing, I know how to adapt to their personality and make them feel comfortable, safe, and loved. I’ve handled everything from tiny puppies to large, strong breeds, and I’m confident managing leash training, walks, feeding, and cuddle time alike. I treat every dog as if they were my own and make sure you have peace of mind while you’re away — with updates and photos. I am available 3/4 days a week depending on my work schedule as it is rotational. On my days off I have full availability. I am flexible and adaptive. I am a highly safe and trustworthy individual. I am extremely lucky to be working alongside animals every day. My knowledge is very extensive and forever expanding.

“Paige put our minds totally at ease while caring for our 2 large dogs and our cat. She sent me plenty of updates and photos which was greatly appreciated. She stayed in our home so the dogs would be more comfortable, had them out for plenty of walks and playtime and even sat with my extremely picky eater so that he would finish his meal. It's always tough to leave your fur babies but we knew they were in great hands. We will definitely use Paige in the future and recommend her to anyone looking for someone to care for their pets.”

About: I’ve grown up with dogs for the past 8 years, so caring for them has always been a big part of my life. I started dog sitting for friends and family in high school and still regularly look after dogs today. I’m comfortable with dogs of different sizes, ages, and personalities, and I understand that every dog has their own routine and needs. Whether it’s going for walks, playing, feeding, or just hanging out and keeping them company, I make sure they get plenty of attention and feel comfortable while their owners are away. I’m reliable, patient, and genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs. My goal is to make sure you can leave knowing your dog is in good hands and getting the same care and attention they’re used to at home. I work as a teacher during the week, so I’m typically available after 4:00 PM Monday through Thursday and after 4:30 PM on Fridays. I’m home most Friday nights and usually have plenty of availability on weekends, which gives me lots of time for walks, playtime, and keeping your dog company. My schedule can change from time to time, so I’ll always keep my Rover availability updated so you know when I’m free! I want every dog I care for to feel comfortable and at home. I have a fully fenced backyard with lots of space to run around, play, and get some fresh air. I also have an extra dog bed, toys, and treats available to help them settle in and enjoy their stay. When caring for a dog in their own home, I’m happy to follow their normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding times, walks, playtime, and any specific instructions you provide. I know every dog is different, so I’m always happy to adjust based on what makes them happiest and most comfortable.

“Sheila is an exceptional cat/home sitter! She’s very attentive to Darcy’s quirks and takes good care! She also left my home immaculate and tended to my flowers ensuring they stayed gorgeous!”

About: Hi there! I’m Melanie, a Registered Veterinary Technologist (RVT) with the Ontario Association of Veterinary Technicians (OAVT). Caring for animals has been part of my life for as long as I can remember. I grew up on a farm, and my very first job was at a dog kennel. That experience opened the door to working in an animal hospital, where I realized veterinary medicine was exactly where I belonged. I went on to earn my diploma as a Veterinary Technologist and have since worked in several small-animal clinics as well as emergency hospitals. I’ve cared for animals of every size and temperament, and I’ve built strong technical skills through hands-on work in anesthesia, surgery, patient care, and fast-paced emergency situations. I have a genuine passion for animal care and the expertise to support pets with both basic and advanced needs. Whether your pet requires medication administration, injections, subcutaneous fluids, or just a loving and attentive companion, I’m here to help. Your pet’s comfort and well-being will always be my top priority. I currently work full time, so my availability is limited to evenings and weekends. I have access to a reliable vehicle and hold my G license. As a Registered Veterinary Technologist (RVT), I uphold a high standard of ethics and care that aligns with the Ontario Association of Veterinary Technicians (OAVT). I’ve grown up with all kinds of pets and truly understand how important they are to your family. I’ve also house-sat for several families, and my goal is always to respect your space and leave it even better than I found it.

“Sarah was amazing! We were quite leary to leave our pup with someone new but Sarah put us at ease quickly and surpassed all expectations!! Loved the many pictures she sent us. Can’t wait to go away again?.”

About: IG: Lady.rav | FB: Raveen walks dogs - Halton & area Dogs are my happy place — I’ve always felt at home around them. I’ve owned four German Shepherds, all rescues, and have done a mix of personal and professional training with them (including one with dog aggression). Those experiences taught me how to understand dogs deeply, from their body language to the way they respond to human energy. I’m active, love hiking, and think everything is more fun with a four‑legged friend beside me. Dogs usually settle quickly around me and feel comfortable, which makes walks, playtime, and downtime easy and enjoyable. Whether your pup needs exercise, company, or calm structure, I’m here to make sure they feel safe, understood, and loved. Pet care fits naturally into my routine. I’m currently building my consulting business, which gives me plenty of time and flexibility during the week to focus on caring for furry loved ones. On weekends, I volunteer helping abuse survivors move into safe housing during the day, so my evenings remain open and available for walks, drop‑ins, and overnight care. My schedule allows me to be consistently present, reliable, and attentive to each dog’s needs. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow your routines closely so your dog feels safe and comfortable. I’m respectful of your space, keep things tidy, and pay close attention to your pet’s body language and needs. I double‑check doors, gates, and safety details, and keep communication open so you always know how your pup is doing. My goal is a calm, secure environment where your dog can relax and you can feel confident while you’re away.

“Carrie took amazing care of our dog Freddie when we were away. She is so sweet and gentle with animals. She understood his individual needs and sent lots of updates. We would recommend her to anyone looking for someone they can trust with their fur babies!”

About: I’ve gotten experience with various animals over the years. I love to support them and help them feel happy and cared for. I’m careful not to teach bad habits. I listen to what they want and need. Tell me what you need and I can fit something in! I am available most of the time in someway - so we can work it out! I use a calm tone where I don’t overexcite the animal and provide good manners reinforcement and also play and engagement. I make sure I am predictable and don’t cause the animal to be uncertain. I follow training and routine that the animal is most used to. I assert my boundaries so the animal knows what to expect from me. I like to give the animal space and respect. I also love to show affection or approval through touch sometimes and especially through positive communication and rewards.
