“Sarah was a dream to work with! I looked forward to her updates each day because I could see that my cat, Mirin, was being so well taken care of. We also experienced an issue with the automatic feeder, but Sarah was incredible and pivoted immediately to figure the situation out. I could not recommend her more highly!”
“Dakota took great care of our two Siamese girls while we were away for a trip! She was punctual and sent us caring notes and photos each time she stopped in! We’re happy to have a go-to person for our cats whenever we’re away.”
“My cats loved Jesse! I felt good leaving them in her care, especially as a vet tech I knew they were in good hands. I loved the pictures and updates that put my mind at ease to let me know they were doing well. Highly recommend Jesse. Will rebook in the future for sure ! :)”
“Wonderful experience! Laura was amazing with my kittens and they were healthy and happy!! Laura sent updates and pictures which made me feel so much better while I was away. I am so grateful!”
About: Having professional experience in boarding/ daycare kennels allows me the ability to understand dog behavior and how to handle dogs of all temperaments. As well as pet sitting for family friends for years. Currently enrolled full time at Dalhousie and working part time, but have flexibility to accommodate your needs. This can be discussed further following a meet and greet. I treat the animals as though they were my own. Keeping in mind how I would want my own cat or dog to be treated if they were entrusted to another person's care.
About: I’ve been around animals my entire life, and caring for them has always come naturally to me. I grew up learning hands-on from my mom, who was a dog trainer and groomer, so from a young age I was exposed to proper handling, training, and understanding of animal behaviour. Over the years, I’ve cared for a wide range of animals in different settings. I’ve owned and looked after dogs of all sizes and breeds, and even had early experience caring for exotic pets while living in Papua New Guinea. My experience also includes working in a veterinary clinic where I took on the role of a vet assistant, volunteering at a wildlife rehabilitation centre, and working in an animal shelter where I was also the lead dog handler, so I’m very comfortable with animals of all temperaments, including those who may be nervous, shy, or require a bit of extra patience. I’m currently in the Doctor of Veterinary Medicine programme at the Atlantic Veterinary College training to be a vet, and I hold a Bachelor of Science degree in BioVeterinary Science, minoring in Equine Science, along with an undergraduate certificate in Animal Welfare. I have a particular interest in animal behaviour and training, and I always aim to make pets feel safe, understood, and comfortable in my care while emphasising fear-free care. I am also able to provide medical care as well. Whether your pet is high-energy, a little anxious, or just needs some extra love and attention, I’m happy to meet them where they’re at and provide care that’s tailored to them. I am currently on summer break from vet school and is available all days of the week to provide drop-in visits, dog walks, pet sitting, or administer medications according to my provided availability. I always aim to care for pets in a way that keeps them feeling safe, comfortable, and as close to their normal routine as possible. Every animal is different, so I adapt my care based on their personality, energy level, and individual needs. In a client’s home, I make sure pets receive plenty of attention, exercise, enrichment, and affection while also respecting the routines they’re used to. I’m comfortable administering basic care and medications, providing medical care, monitoring behaviour, and caring for anxious or shy animals with patience and understanding. I also make it a priority to keep owners updated with regular photos and messages for peace of mind. With my background in veterinary medicine, shelter work, animal behaviour and training, and wildlife rehabilitation, I’m confident handling pets of different temperaments, sizes, and ages. My goal is always to create a calm, positive environment where pets feel secure and well cared for.
About: I love all sized and tempered dogs! As a tech student I have the ability to medicate, train and bath/ groom with nothing but love I’m currently a student full time so my schedule varies but reach out and I’m sure I can make it work! Cant wait to chat! I have a very overly playful puppy so I am a great place if you have a high energy dog loving dog or cat! Also have a kitten who is very out of the way and barely a bother!
About: I’ve lived with animals my entire life and grew up with two Border Collies trained in agility, giving me experience with both high-energy and more relaxed pets. I currently have three cats and understand the importance of patience, routine, and reading animal behavior. I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Bio-Veterinary Science from Dalhousie University, with coursework in animal behaviour, anatomy, nutrition, and disease. Through my studies and farm experience, I developed strong biosecurity and hygiene practices to help keep pets healthy and stress-free. My goal is to provide calm, knowledgeable, and compassionate care so you can feel confident your pet is safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I work from home with flexible hours and set my own schedule, allowing me to spend unrushed, consistent time with pets in my care. This flexibility helps me adapt to your pet’s specific needs and maintain their normal routine while you’re away. I prioritize safety, routine, and respect for each pet’s needs. I follow care instructions closely, keep environments clean and calm, and ensure pets feel comfortable, secure, and well cared for.
About: I’ve been caring for dogs and cats since I was 12 years old and have always grown up around animals. I have experience with puppies, senior pets, and cats, including those who need medication. I’ve walked dogs for others and understand how important patience, routine, and trust are for animals. I love spending time with pets—whether that’s going for long walks, playing, cuddling, or simply keeping them company so they feel safe and happy while you’re away. I currently work part-time, so I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to care for pets. I’m available for check-ins, walks, or overnight stays in your home depending on what works best for you and your pet. While I don’t host animals in my own home, I’m happy to come to yours to make sure your pets are comfortable, cared for, and sticking to their usual routine. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine are my top priorities. When caring for pets in their own home, I make sure they feel relaxed and secure by keeping their normal schedule for feeding, walks, playtime, and rest. I love taking photos and sending regular updates so you can see how your pet is doing while you're away. I know how important it is to have peace of mind when someone else is caring for your pet. I also have a car, so if your dog is comfortable riding in a vehicle, we can go on fun outings to local parks or even quick trips to the pet store for extra exercise and enrichment. I treat every pet like family and focus on creating a calm, safe, and loving environment while you're away.
About: I've been loving on and taking care of pets since I was a little kid. I'm that person who gets along with pets more than people and go straight to them at a party 🙃 I love to take dogs out on lots of walks, cuddle cats while I'm crocheting, and make sure that they are well taken care of. I'm currently between jobs and looking to pick up some work ASAP. I have lots of timt to spoil ypur pets. Open for weekends and holidays as well. I am a great guest and responsible house keeper. I love to go on lots of walks and provide lot of attention to your pets.

My cats loved Jesse! I felt good leaving them in her care, especially as a vet tech I knew they were in good hands. I loved the pictures and updates that put my mind at ease to let me know they were doing well. Highly recommend Jesse. Will rebook in the future for sure ! :)
Dakotas attention to detail and patience made my first time leaving my kitten an easier experience. Not only did she send me some of my favourite photos of him ever, she even spent a little extra time snuggling him and making him comfortable. Highly recommended and will absolutely be using her again!
Michelle was awesome! She had to take our cat to the vet for an emergency and then give medication for the week and she did so without complaint! Couldn’t ask for a better sitter. She uploaded lots of photos and info for us so that was great! We will definitely use her again.
