About: I love animals! I’ve had pets my entire life and have regularly cared for so many different pets for friends, family, and others. I have extensive experience with both cats and dogs, including administering medication, supporting senior pets, managing physical ailments, and following specific food restrictions. I understand how important it is to feel confident your pets are safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. When I travel, I want that same peace of mind for my own cats, and I strive to provide that same level of care, safety, and security to every pet I look after. Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine. I work a flexible schedule with a mix of in-office and work-from-home days. On days I work from home, I’m available in the mornings and throughout the day, and I can bring my laptop with me if needed. On in-office days, I’m happy to stop by before work and again after, and if a pet requires extra care or visits, I can often adjust my schedule or leave work early. As long as I have some advance notice, I’m able to plan ahead and make sure each pet receives consistent, attentive care. I offer in-home pet sitting, so I come to your home where your pet feels most comfortable and secure. I follow your pet’s usual routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, medication, litter box care, playtime, walks (if applicable), and plenty of affection. I’m happy to accommodate any special instructions or preferences and adjust my care to meet your pet’s individual needs. My goal is always to provide calm, reliable care that helps your pet feel safe and stress-free while you’re away.

“Dominique has been fantastic with our new puppy. She's been walking our pup throughout the week for a couple weeks and gives us updates and photos every time. She is promp and is always accommodating to changes.”

It should be completed soon. I believe in dogs and cats are great for mental health and everyone should have one. Pets are family. I’d treat them as my own w lots of love!! Also, I drive and have access to a car at all times. I’m gentle, and caring. I’ll give them my full attention, lots of love and playtime! I’m adaptable to a pets needs, no request is silly. I am able to adjust rates on my end upon agreement. ☺️

About: I’ve grown up around animals and have years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all sizes, ages, and personalities. I’m patient, attentive, and great at reading animal behavior. I have experience with puppies, senior pets, medication routines, feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and lots of love and reassurance. I’m currently working part-time, which gives me lots of flexibility and availability for pet care. I have plenty of time for walks, playtime, feeding, and cuddles. I’m available for boarding on sundays/mondays/thursday or weekdays after 6, and I’m happy to work around your pet’s routine to keep them feeling comfortable and loved. I live in a very clean, minimalist apartment that’s calm and pet-friendly. There are lots of nearby parks, quiet streets, and trails for long, safe walks. I always follow your care instructions closely, keep pets supervised, and make sure they feel secure, comfortable, and loved at all times.

About: I never ask clients to leave a review. I feel like the reviews that I receive are far more genuine and authentic when owners feel inclined to leave feedback on their own. It makes the reviews that I do receive far more meaningful to me and hopefully if you are considering reaching out to me for a booking you can read for yourself about all the happy owners I have worked with over the last few years. I do my best to make sure that all the dogs and cats I have looked after feel safe, happy and content while with me. I like to try and be their home away from home ❤️. If I’ve done that, then I have had a successful booking; for the owner/family and their pet. I grew up with all kinds of pets and feel comfortable and happy around animals. Dogs in particular bring me immense joy. The love and loyalty they give unconditionally sets them apart in my opinion. Besides growing up with pets, as an adult I have raised 2 dogs from a puppy and trained them into adulthood. I have also experienced looking after senior dogs and all that this entails. Currently I have my own small to medium-sized dog at home, she will be a companion to your dog when staying with us. She is super friendly and outgoing. My son and daughter are both in their late teens and are very responsible and each has taken dog training classes. Between the 3 of us, we think we offer a loving, caring home, filled with belly rubs, several walks a day (or one long one!) and maybe a few treats here and there (if allowed). I have had many repeat customers because when a pet returns home after their stay with me they are happy and healthy and owners can see that they have been well looked after. I have enjoyed the trusted relationships I have built with the dog owners I have met and worked with as well as their furry family members! I currently work primarily from home. When I do go into the office, it's only for 1 - 2 days a week for approx. 4 - 6 hours. I have one child in university who lives at home currently and her schedule is such that she is home on the days that I may go into the office. So your pet will never be left alone. My son is also home in the evenings and on the weekends and is happy to help play, walk or support the dog/cat in any way that he can. I can pet-sit and do overnights anytime. I would prefer to have at least 3 days notice that you are wanting to book a stay though so I can plan accordingly. I am mostly a homebody and I love to go for long walks and hikes especially on the weekends when I have more time. Most days I usually take my dog for a walk in the morning for approx. 1 hour and then I usually take her out in the evening for approx. 1 hour walk. If your dog is up for it, they are more than welcome to join us. Throughout the day depending on the energy level of your dog I can also take several breaks to play with your furry friend. I have a large variety of pet toys and dog puzzles to keep your dog active and mentally stimulated. If your dog likes to just relax and snooze most of the day, there are quiet spots throughout my home that would give them the comfort and quiet they would like. There are no young kids in my home or cats that your pet might have to contend with. We live in a peaceful and quiet area with access to the outside whenever your dog might need it. I understand the need for a safe environment for your pet. I require the same from anyone looking after my dog when I have had to go away. I understand the stress and anxiety that can come from leaving your furry family member with a stranger. I am happy to send picture(s) to you of your dog during their stay with me. I have found that this brought me peace when I had to leave my dog, it was important to have a visual of her happy face and I'm happy to provide you with the same! If you want to text about how your dog is doing, I can do that too. I will provide your pet with the same care and love that I give me own dog. I will be attentive to your dogs needs and will be happy to have them in my home. Your dog is welcome on the bed and sofa along with my dog (if that's ok with you). If you are crate training I am familiar with that and I am happy to continue with that routine as well. I also feel comfortable with dogs that are older and require medication throughout their day and perhaps a slower pace and with special needs dogs that may require a little more time and attention.

“Angela was communicative and really wonderful to work with for our puppies first walk! Looking forward to having her work with our girl more!”

Whether it's administering medications, monitoring health conditions, or providing special care for senior pets, I prioritize their health and ensure that any specific needs are met with precision and care. In addition to these daily tasks, I schedule regular check-ins to provide updates and maintain open communication with pet owners. This ensures peace of mind, allowing you to stay informed about your pet's well-being while you're away.

If your pet has specific needs, such as medication administration, special diets, or mobility assistance, I incorporate these into my care routine. I am attentive to any health or behavior changes, ensuring that your pet receives the specialized care required for their well-being.

“Gorden and Elsa were able to help us out at short notice with a couple of weeks of dog walking. While I wasn't able to meet them personally they came to meet my son beforehand and get to know Tama. Their communication was prompt and friendly. I appreciated the daily updates and Tama always looked very happy and engaged whether by himself or playing with their other dogs. I would definitely use them again! Thanks guys!”

“We booked Hayley for a few walks prior to having her stay overnight with our German shepherd. This first walk went really well. Hayley arrived early, was incredibly calm and present with our pup and did a wonderful job walking her, anticipating and preventing interactions with unknown dogs by calmly shortening the leash and then giving her more room as the path opened up. Our pup seemed incredibly comfortable with Hayley.”

About: I had been taking care of dogs since 2012, and over the years neighbors and friends have relied on me to help care for their fur pets. Even while working a full-time job, I consistently made time to walk, feed, bathe, and give dogs the attention and love they deserve. I work part time in the mornings, which gives me plenty of free time for dog care the rest of the day. I’m flexible, reliable, and happy to focus on your pet’s needs. I have a friendly 10-year-old Yorkie at home who can keep your fur pet company. We live in a cozy apartment that’s full of love, care, safety, and fun.

About: I have taken care of family and friend’s pets for over 20 years, including long term dog sitting. I thoroughly enjoy taking care of and keeping your pet company. I will provide them with daily exercise, enrichment and love. I am not working and am available most days. I will be with your pet the entire time they are in my care. My daily routine includes walks and time at home to provide them with exercise and enrichment. The dog will be with me the entire time, and my home is already a safe place for dog sitting as I do it frequently. I will follow your instructions to ensure each pet receives any particular care they need.

“Jenny was so accommodating and patient with our little mini schnauzer! She was punctual and took such great care of our dog. We will definitely be rebooking in the future - thanks Jenny!”

“Oli was so great with walking Joey while I couldn't. She was punctual, came rain or shine and Joey loved her. I will happily be using her again and she will definitely be my choice if I need someone to stay with Joey in the future”

“Katie was absolutely amazing with my dog, Leo. From the moment she arrived, she was so friendly and confident and not intimidated at all by my big dog, which immediately put me at ease. She showed up exactly when she said she would (with very little notice), was professional and kind, and brought home a very happy and nicely tired dog. It’s such a relief finding someone you trust, especially with a large dog, and Katie exceeded my expectations. She’s only pet sitting in my area temporarily, so I’m honestly going to be sad when I can’t use her more in the future, but we’ll definitely be making the most of the next couple of weeks while she’s here. Highly, highly recommend her! 🐾”

“Rachael did an excellent job taking care of our three dogs. She was reliable, attentive, and genuinely cared for our pets. We highly recommend her services!”

About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and truly understand their different needs at every stage. I’m experienced with puppies, including patience, routines, and gentle guidance, as well as senior dogs who need extra care, comfort, and attention. I’m confident giving medications and always follow instructions carefully to keep pets safe and comfortable. What sets me apart is my calm, loving approach, each dog is treated like my own. I take the time to understand their personality, routines, and preferences so they feel secure, relaxed, and happy while you’re away. Your dog’s well-being is always my top priority 🐾 As a business owner, I work from home most days, which allows me to be very present and flexible with pet care. Dogs are never left alone for long periods and get plenty of attention, potty breaks, playtime, and companionship throughout the day. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, and I enjoy structuring my work around walks, feeding schedules, and quality time so each dog feels comfortable, safe, and well cared for. Pets in my care are welcomed into a calm, clean, and pet-friendly home where safety and comfort come first. I work from home most days, so dogs are closely supervised and never left alone for long periods. I follow consistent routines for feeding, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and rest to help each dog feel secure and settled. Because I have a dog of my own, I always require a meet-and-greet beforehand to ensure everyone is comfortable and gets along well. This helps create a safe, positive, and stress-free experience for all dogs. I live in a dog-friendly neighbourhood with dog parks and walking trails just minutes from my doorstep, making it easy to provide regular walks, outdoor time, and enrichment. I’m attentive to individual needs, including puppies who require structure and seniors who need extra care and patience. Medications are given carefully as instructed, and every dog is treated like part of the family in a loving, home-style environment with regular updates so you can feel confident while you’re away 🐾
