About: Over the last 15 years i have cared for a variety of dogs in many locations. Off leash camping and hiking, senior dog care, blindness, and insulin dependant diabetic dogs. My current 2 dogs were raised from puppies and trained by myself and my wife. My household has 2 dogs that i am responsible for. I feed, bathe, and exercise both. Occasionally i also sit for extended family's dogs, since they are less friendly and i do very well with them. My wife and i sont have children, so our dogs fill that role in our lives. In the past, i have cared for my elderly diabetic dog, including insulin injections, oral medication, and blindness support. I have also cared for and am experienced in dogs with epilepsy.

About: I’ve traveled across the U.S. with a different service, caring for pets of all ages and personalities. From administering meds and cleaning up accidents to playtime and cuddles, I treat every furry friend with love, patience, and respect. I have a mini dachshund and a Cavapoo, so I know all about proper handling, training, and grooming needs. Calm or crazy, young or old I’m here to make tails wag and hearts happy! Pet care is part of my daily life, naturally woven into my routine. I start the day by checking on my own pets feeding, letting them out, and making sure they’re comfortable so I’m already in “pet mode” from the morning. Throughout the day, I dedicate time to walks, play sessions, feeding, and any medication or grooming needs. I prioritize consistency and attention, so every animal I care for gets regular meals, potty breaks, exercise, and affection. Evenings are for cuddles, calming down active pets, and ensuring everyone is safe and happy before bedtime. In short, I organize my day around pets’ needs, so their care, comfort, and happiness are always a priority, whether it’s my own dogs or the pets I’m sitting for. When caring for pets in my home, I provide a safe, comfortable environment where pets get plenty of love, attention, and exercise. I follow their regular routines for meals, potty breaks, playtime, and naps, and I handle any medications, grooming, or special needs with care. I make sure every pet feels secure, happy, and part of the family while their humans are away. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their instructions closely to maintain consistency for the pet. I feed, walk, and play with them, clean up after them, and administer any medications as needed. I also make sure their space stays tidy, safe, and comfortable, so pets feel calm and owners have peace of mind while away.

About: I am the owner of a little yorkie and I know how important and delicate are little dogs. I can assure you that I will take care of your baby as it were mine. I am available Monday through Friday, and I can also work on weekends if needed. I love taking dogs to dog parks if they are allowed to play there. I am very careful with little puppies to ensure they get the appropriate care they need, even if they need special assistance. Since I am more experienced with little dogs, I am very careful to have them interact with big dogs.

About: My name is Vivi (she/her)! I have been watching, sitting and walking dogs for over four years. I have a keen sense of animal personality and behaviour and have always enjoyed being around them. I've been known by many as *the* dog whisperer--you're in excellent hands here! I live with my friends downtown, but return to my parents house for dog care. Someone's always home for bookings. I work on my own projects between interacting with dogs, and I can take a break at any time. I have a karate class on Mondays and Thursdays, during which I hand off work to one of my parents for just a bit. Your pets are always in good hands here! I believe in being careful with pets and that they should be comfortable with their environment. The best interactions come from mutual trust between pet and caretaker.

Emily and her pups were great! She was very welcoming and flexible with her time. She has an amazing fenced in yard. I felt very comfortable with her, and she was very patient and worked with my dog to get her settled. My doggie was very anxious, and Emily was very patient! Already have another booking with her for boarding!

About: We came across the Cavapoo breed as our loving Rottweiler was on his journey to his “better place”. We chose the Cavapoo breed as our furry rainbow puppy to help us all with the tough loss. Fast fwd 5 years, and WOW, still can’t believe the journey that was created for us. Dog breeding, training, boarding and grooming just the way I would want my pups taken care of…in a home. Our setup is ready for all stages of dogs and of course, personalities. This is a small family business and we make pet care fit seamlessly into our lives. We’re a party of 4 and all hands are always on deck. 4:00 am wake up call during the week and 6:00 am on weekends. Caring for pets in our home can consist of taking your pets normal routine that’s already established and following it. Help keep your animal on a schedule of food timing to crate or bedroom boarding. We live in a neighborhood with a 6 foot privacy fenced in back yard. A 3,000 gallon Koi pond surrounded by 800 square feet of deck. Nice plush outdoor furniture for the dogs to lounge next to the pond after a drink. We have also built a 200 square foot doggie palace on our property. Full electricity with heating/air and additional ceiling fan. Great for rainy days or dogs who are lone rangers and/or feisty.

First time leaving my dog with someone other than family and I couldn’t be happier. Great communication from the sitter beforehand and also text and a photo during my dog’s stay with them. Both these things help put my mind at ease. Highly recommend this sweet couple and will use them again when in their area!

About: We've owned and cared for dogs for over 35 years. Our first dogs were a Lab and a Golden Retriever then a Pug and a Puggle and now the parents of a Lab/Husky mix. We provide loving care with plenty of exercise in our non-smoking, fenced home. We live one block from Jacobson Park and its wonderful dog parks so rest assured your fur baby will receive plenty of attention, exercise, fun and love during its stay. I work from home and my spouse is a stay at home spouse, so we are available to provide constant care, exercise, play time and supervision for your fur baby. Whether is romping in the fenced yard or walks to the dog park, your furry friend will enjoy being part of the pack with our dog. Our fenced yard and quiet cul de sac on a golf course and located a block from 2 dog parks is a great place for your dog to stretch its legs and play to its heart's desire. During warmer times, we'll also spend a lot of time relaxing with your pet in our screened in deck in the back yard with access to our fenced in yard.

I was visiting family in the area, and I left my 40 lb female husky with Kimberly for the day. My husky gets anxious in new environments and loves to be outside. Kimberly helped her get acquainted with the new surroundings and took her for SO many walks! When I picked my husky up at the end of the day, she was very happy and very tired! I would definitely contact again and recommend Kimberly. I felt very comfortable, she was very communicative & clearly cared about my husky having a good day too!

About: Looking for an excited pet sitter with experience living with and caring for fur babies? Look no further! I have lived with and taken care of dogs for much of my life, and I have plenty of experience dog sitting for friends and family. I am able to stay overnight and accommodate any requests you may have for your fur baby - keeping them happy and healthy is the priority! I’m currently working part-time, so I have plenty of time to play with your pets during the day! I am available to be present constantly on weekends and after 4:30pm on weekdays, as well. Whatever your schedule, I would be happy to accommodate! I live in an apartment, so I am only able to care for pets in my home for short periods of time (an afternoon or so!). If there are needs in-home while I am pet sitting (any cleaning or house care), I would be happy to take care of that as well!

Chellie has been adjusting to her routine and time weekly time with Brent and his dog. She can be a real handful sometimes, being such a large dog. Brent has been patient and caring with her and I couldn't ask for more. Asking her about going to play with his dog is one of the things that gets her motivated to get moving in the morning.
