About: I grew up surrounded by animals, with a dad who’s a farmer and a home full of furry (and sometimes feathery) companions. From a young age, I dreamed of becoming a veterinarian, and while life took me down a different path, my love and passion for animals never changed. These days, I enjoy walking and carrying for dogs. There's something special about just being present with them. I’m also a proud mom to two animal-loving girls (ages 8 and 10), and together we dream of having a house full of animals... if only we had the space! I am self employed so I can set my own hours. I love to be outside. I walk my own dog everyday. Happy to take animals on walks, play with my own dog or even go on a hike. I live on ½ an acre with lots of grass and a fenced in backyard. We live right near the Iron Horse Trail so walks are encouraged. =)
“I had some last-minute plans come up and urgently needed someone to look after my dog. Nicole was incredibly accommodating, stepping in on short notice, and went above and beyond to make sure my dog was well cared for. When booking, I accidentally selected the dog check-in service instead of the dog sitter option. I reached out to Nicole about the mix-up, and she was incredibly understanding. She was very flexible and kindly allowed me to adjust my request. Overall, Nicole was truly amazing and I couldn't have asked for a better sitter!”
“Courtney is great! Reliable and loves dogs. Good communication throughout the process. Had to administer insulin 2x/day and antibiotics 2x/day and it was no problem. Made me feel comfortable going away knowing my pets would be well taken care of.”
About: What sets me apart as a sitter is my hands-on experience with dogs of all ages, especially those who need patience, structure, and understanding. I have a strong background in caring for both young, high-energy dogs and senior pets who require a gentler, more attentive approach. Over the years, I’ve adopted and cared for shelter dogs, including one of my most meaningful experiences: transforming my 3-year-old German Shepherd who came from an abusive and neglected background. She was fearful, submissive, and untrained when I first brought her home. Through consistent training, positive reinforcement, and a calm, stable environment, she gradually became a confident, obedient, affectionate, and deeply trusting companion. She is now 15 years old and remains a living example of the patience and care I bring to every animal I work with. This experience has taught me how to read animal behavior, build trust with nervous or reactive dogs, and adapt care to each pet’s unique needs. Whether it’s helping a young dog learn structure and good habits or providing comfort and routine for senior dogs, I focus on creating a safe, loving, and balanced environment where every pet feels secure and understood. I pick up shifts bartending but I cant adjust my schedule around sitting others dogs. I will be free when needed so no worries there. I have a nice size balcony but that the dogs can hangout on if they would like but i also take my girl out often.
About: I have lots of experience caring for dogs and truly love them like my own babies. I even bottle-fed newborn puppies when their mom couldn’t, and spending time with dogs always brings me joy they mean so much to me! Pet care fits into my weekly routine as a priority—I make sure to set aside dedicated time to walk, feed, and give attention to the pets, making their well-being and happiness a regular part of my day. I would care for someone else’s dog by making sure they feel safe and comfortable, following their usual routine for feeding, walks, and playtime. I’d give them lots of attention and affection, watch for any signs they need, and keep their environment clean and calm.
About: I always loved animals so much since I was little I wanted to become a vet until I found out how much science was involved...ha! My friends and family knew how much I loved animals that they would always go to me first to take care of their pets before bringing their furry family members to an animal daycare. I've watched over cats, birds, dogs (small and large breeds) and even helped a young Doberman mama take care of her beautiful 7 pup litter for 4 weeks until they were adopted at 6 weeks old. I also have a special love for horses, so I have taken care of horses but light work such as cleaning, riding, and restocking the hay. I work from home so I'm very flexible in terms of caring for animals. So during the day I can take them out for walks, cleaning, feeding, etc. I don't have any animals myself (yet) so if your fur baby is shy or uncomfortable around other animals, you don't have to worry about that with me. I also have a fenced yard with enough space for your animal to roam around...although I prefer to go to the pet owner's house as the animal will feel more comfortable in their own environment and also because my mom tends to have animal allergies, so for her comfort, I rather go to the owner's house.

About: I am a college graduate, living at home while I look for a full-time job. I have grown up with pets my entire life. I have a Rhodesian Ridgeback, German Shepherd, Tuxedo cats, and Tabby cats.

About: Hi there! I’m a lifelong dog lover with years of experience caring for furry friends, and I’m excited to help your pup feel happy and loved while you’re away. Though I recently had to be separated from my own dog, I’ve been surrounded by dogs my whole life, so I know how to give them attention, comfort, and fun. Whether it’s a quick visit, a long walk, or overnight care, I treat every dog like a part of the family. I’d love to meet your pup and provide the care, attention, and companionship they deserve! I work from home in a pet-friendly community, so your dog will get plenty of walks, cuddles, and attention all day. I have a flexible schedule if provided with enough notice.

I provide walks, cuddles, and supervision in a secure, pet-friendly space. Whether in my home or yours, I follow your rules and routines exactly, treating your dog and your home with the same love and respect I would my own.
“I met Surjit in the Peace Corps and since day one she’s shown a tremendous quality of being a dependable friend. She’s charismatic, she’s thoughtful, and she’s an extremely loving caretaker. When my dog Darwin first met her, his eyes lit up and his pupils went wide with love for her as they continue to do so every time they get together and forget I’m even there. She’s one of the very few people who I trust enough to take care of Darwin and they continue to bond in a way I don’t really see with other people since, even though my dog is very cute, I think he knows it and can be a bit antisocial and aloof. But Surjit sees him and fully accepts him for who he is, as I see her do with all pets in her life. I happily endorse Surjit because I know that she does not just see your pet as a dog or a cat, she sees them as individuals with their own personalities, fears, habits, wants, and needs. I happily endorse Surjit because I know that she will, without a doubt, go above and beyond and take care of your pet like she takes care of her own family and friends.”
About: I've been caring for dogs since I was 10 years old, when our family adopted our first dog, a bull terrier mix named Sadie. Being a shelter dog she required a lot of love and patience to build trust. At a young age I read books and worked with her every day to ensure her safety and happiness. She lived a solid 16 years with us. Over the years I've cared for several pets, mainly dog, cat, and chicken sitting for friend's/family's furry (and feathery) children, and even raised my own Golden Retriever, Samson, who's currently 8 years old. I'm extremely attentive, nurturing, reliable, patient, and detail-oriented for pets with medications, special diets or specific routines. I've cared for puppies, youth, as well as senior animals. At the moment I've been dedicated to focusing on my craft as an artist which has allowed flexibility in my schedule. My current availability is Monday - Sunday, mornings/afternoons/evenings and I'm even open to overnight care. I currently cannot host pets in my home, as I live with 2 cats who are not open to sharing their space lol, but am respectful of the client's home and my first priority is your pet's safety.

Lara did an amazing job with our drop-in visits! One of our cats was feeling sad and would hide when she came to visit, but Lara went the extra step to coax him out and make sure he was eating. She communicated beautifully, sent great updates, and was easy to work with. Highly recommend for drop-in care!
Kimberly took the best care of my 2 pups while I was away. But more than that, Kimberly took the best care of this nervous doe mom’s heart ❤️ She was so kind; attentive; took lots of pictures and videos that shows how much she cares for both the dogs and the human! I cannot say enough wonderful things!
Booked a super last minute drop in visit for our dogs with Trevor and he was as excellent as when he did in-house dog sitting for us for a few days, communicative, attentive to the dogs and professional! Were very lucky to have found a reliable pet sitter our pups clearly adore!

During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
