About: Hi, my name is Tiffany. I love all kinds of animals and have a lot of experience caring for different pets. I currently own 2 little rat babes and am a dog mom to a Great Pyrenees puppy. I am in love with big dogs, the bigger the better! I grew up in a home that has constantly had pets and I couldn't picture my life without a furbaby. My life has revolved around animals and their wellbeing. I have done a co-op course at a Vets office in the past and learned so many new things for the 6 months that I was there, it was an experience like no other. With all my knowledge I am positive your pet will have a blast and make a new friend in me!
About: Animals have always been a huge part of our lives. We cared for our dog for 12.5 wonderful years, including supporting him through diabetes for the last 1.5 years of his life. Through daily walks, medication routines, and lots of love, we learned how deeply meaningful caring for a dog truly is. After losing him, we miss the joy that dogs bring—walking, cuddling, and the unconditional love they share. Pet sitting allows us to give that love and care back to other families. Daily walks are always included in our fee and we will cater the length to whatever your dog is used to. Walks/Drop in visits: I work a rotating schedule and have many weekdays off. Please message to check availability! We walk nearly every weeknight anyways so we would love to incorporate dogs into our routine. Boarding: we both work full time in the office 4 days a week. Dogs must be able to be left alone in the day on weekdays. Weeknights and weekends we are both home. We would love to spend our evenings and weekends caring for your pets. Whether it’s walks, weekend drop-ins, or overnight stays here at our home, your dog will be treated like family. We are a child-free, pet-free, smoke-free home, offering a calm and stress-free environment. Our property is fully fenced and includes a built-in ramp (see photo), making it ideal for dogs with mobility or stair challenges. My husband and I used to walk our own dog every single day, and he’ll be joining me in caring for the dogs who stay or visit. Between us, your pet will always have someone attentive, gentle, and experienced looking after them. We would be honoured to care for your pet and give them a loving home-away-from-home

“Trisha, has been great with Murphy. Patient with him. She wasn't deterred from his bad attitude upon first meeting. Now he's a clown with her. She's always on time and communicates with any changes needed. She's also been understanding with a couple short notices to add on walks. We're looking forward to continuing to work with her. Thanks Trisha”

About: Nice to meet you! My name is Chelsea, I am a 32-year-old Law Clerk, looking to make some extra money to save for a house! I am very responsible, reliable, trustworthy, and I absolutely LOVE animals! I have volunteered at the SPCA working with a variety of animals, gaining all the experience that comes along with it. DOGS: I am comfortable with any dog type. Big, small, friendly, shy, energetic, lazy- you name it! I can handle any breed, from a Chihuahua to a Great Dane. I can tire out your energetic pooch, or sit down and relax with your fur baby, and make them feel safe and comfortable. My mother also had her own dog walking business, and I thought that with the experience I gained helping her, I could start to help my local friends in the Niagara Region! CATS: I understand that cats need care tailored to their unique personalities - whether that means quiet companionship, playful interaction, or just sticking to their routines. I'm patient and attentive, making sure each cat feels safe and comfortable in their own space. What sets me apart is my ability to read their body language, respect their boundaries and build trust at their pace, so even shy or independent cats feel cared for. I also have two cats of my own, so I understand their quirks and routines! I do work full-time, so I offer pet care part-time during the evening and weekends. This gives me the perfect balance to dedicate focused, quality time to your pets. I make sure each visit, walk or overnight stay fits smoothly into my routine, so your dog or cat gets reliable, consistent care without me being rushed or distracted. ***If you live close by, I can fit in a lunchtime dog walk/feed between 12-1 or 1-2! *** When I care for pets in your home, I treat it with the same respect as my own. I will follow your routines closely to make sure your dog or cat feels safe and comfortable in their familiar environment. Whether its walks, feeding or crate time, I’ll provide reliable, loving care while keeping your home secure.
About: I've grown up with dogs my entire life. Throughout childhood, we always had 2-3 dogs in our household. I now have my own dog who I've had for 8 years, he's my absolute best friend! He's mostly blind but he doesnt let that diminish his love of life. He loves to go camping, hiking, to the beach, swimming, walks, hanging out with his humans and fur-cousins and getting in a good snuggle! I have dog-sat many furry friends and family members over the years! I have experience with dogs of all sizes, temperaments, ages, etc! I've had experience with disabled, energetic, anxious, lazy, elderly dogs and more! I can walk, bathe & brush, administer medications, feed & water, car rides, beach trips, whatever your pup may need or want! 😊 I currently have lots of free time to spend with your fur babies, weekdays, weekends and holidays! I'm very passionate about pets and I would love to be able to give other pet parents the peace of mind while giving their pets exceptional care. I have a fully fenced in yard with 3 friendly dogs living in the residence. Two 8 year old and one 5 month old puppy. I'm familiar with crate training and have no problem upholding that in your household when I come over for visits!
“Edith was great! She's kind, patient and was ok with my dog jumping on her when first meeting. Her walks were through my neighbourhood and Clover came back panting with a big smile on her face :). I felt comfortable with Edith taking Clover and will be using her again.”

About: With two decades of experience caring for both cats and dogs, I have lots of knowledge regarding pet behavior! Growing up I had a pet cat that lived to be 19 years old. I learned to properly administer medication and provide extra care in her more delicate years. I’m also familiar with handling various dog breeds and temperaments which allows me to provide the best care to your precious pet. I have loved animals since I was young and love giving them the time and attention that they deserve. Being a pet owner myself, I know how scary it can be to leave them in someone else’s hands. I can assure you that they will be provided with love, cuddles, attention and all necessary care that they need. I currently work shift work and am always home on my days off. I am only making myself available on days that I am off from work so that your pet can be well cared for. I have a fenced yard at the end of a court so the space is huge! My dog Uno loves running around and playing fetch with his toys and is dog friendly. He would love to have a friendly companion to play with or go on walks with. If your dog is not dog friendly, not a problem - I can walk your dog solo! Only dog friendly dogs can be accommodated for boarding.
