Pet Sitting in Lonsdale

“Katherine is so great! She is prompt and attentive to my pups and always communicates so well. She has become an integral part of our weekly routine.”

About: My husband and I bring a lifetime of dog experience to every pup we care for. We both grew up in dog‑loving homes, and for the past 8 years we’ve been raising our own family dog from puppyhood into adulthood. That hands‑on experience has taught us everything from crate and potty training to maintaining consistent routines, managing energy levels, and providing calm, loving structure. What sets us apart is the balance of experience, patience, and true family-style care. We understand how to work with dogs at every stage — energetic puppies who need guidance and structure, adult dogs who thrive on routine and play, and senior dogs who need slower walks, gentle support, and extra comfort. We’re attentive, safety‑focused, and always tuned in to each dog’s unique personality and needs. Your dog will be welcomed into a warm, stable home where they get plenty of exercise, affection, and communication. We treat every pet as if they’re part of our own family, and we make sure you always feel informed and confident while they’re with us. My husband and I both work full time, but we still have great coverage for pet care throughout the week. My husband works from home on Mondays and Fridays, which allows for frequent walks, breaks, and plenty of attention during the day. My schedule is 7:00am–3:00pm, so I'm usually home earlier in the afternoon, and my husband works 8:00am–5:00pm. We provide a safe, calm, and welcoming home environment for every pup we host. Our fully fenced backyard is perfect for supervised outdoor play, and our friendly 8‑year‑old golden retriever loves having company and helps new dogs feel comfortable right away. Inside, dogs have plenty of space to relax and be part of our daily routine. We always supervise outdoor time, keep our home secure, and make sure each dog gets the right balance of attention, structure, and comfort. Your pup will be cared for like family and will feel right at home with us.

About: I currently work at a dog kennel so I have lots of dog experience! I have also had dogs my entire life from big Labs to chihuahuas! I currently go to school for 2 hours in the morning so my schedule is very very open. I am also only working part time. I crate all of my dogs so that is not and issue for me! I also have experience with food aggression and lots of different types of reactivity.

“Our pups love you!!”

“Kaitlyn was great! Our dog is very skittish around strangers, and Kaitlyn was very patient and understanding. She sent us regular updates and pictures.”

“She’s amazing for pictures and daily care First time I have been on vacation and didn’t worry about my fur babies Definitely will be hiring her again 😊”

“Melissa is exceptionally caring and had a wonderful approach with our Great Dane, Kota. She left the perfect level of details after each of her visits and was thoughtful about our dogs knee (recovering from surgery) while still giving her plenty of time to play. Our dog was clearly comfortable and happy to see Melissa each visit- which is saying a lot for an anxious pup! Could not recommend Melissa more highly!!”

About: ive grown up with pets my whole life and often pet sit for my family, so caring for animals comes naturally to me. I’m used to daily routines like walks, feeding, and playtime, and I always make sure pets feel comfortable and loved. i’m available Monday through Thursday for pet care. I have flexible availability throughout those days, including mornings, afternoons, and evenings, so I can adjust to your pet’s routine as needed. I’m happy to work around feeding times, walks, and any specific care schedules your pet is used to. i have a fenced yard and two friendly dogs, so pets will have a safe space and some company if they enjoy being around other dogs.

About: I’ve taken care of many different pets for many years. I am a trusted pet sitter around the neighborhood because I am reliable and patient with animals. I’m currently working part-time, so I have plenty of time on my days off to take care of your pets! Wednesdays work best for me but I can make other days work as well. Weekends are also flexible! Safety for everyone is my first priority! I would prefer to care for the pet in your home because that is where it is most comfortable and familiar, but I can be flexible!

About: i’ve watched over paralyzed dogs senior cats providing medicine to all and have been there through it all providing the best care possible, treating them like my own. pet sitting would be my full time job for the next 3 -4 months before i go to college being fully available all the time because i have pet sit in the past i have references for my past pet sitting family where i provided the best care i possibly could caring for their animals ever time they leave on a trip

About: I have 5 amazing dogs of my own, 1 pitbull, 2 American Eskimo mini and 2 Pomeranians. I had 2 liter of puppies from my dogs (1st liter was 10 pups, 2nd liter was 5 pups) and was able to raise them well for their furever home. I run a lot, so if your dog needs to exercise, you can count me in. Or simply needs a rest day, or any kind of special needs, I’m your girl. I work full time and have my own babies to care for, but I’m a super dog mom so I’m pretty flexible and prepared for anything. With my own experiences of owning 5 dogs, and raising 15 puppies, I feel like that should speak for itself. I do have a fenced in yard, I love dogs and I want them to be happy while they're with me or their own homes.

About: I’ve owned dogs my whole life. I currently have 3 and live on a 6 acre farm where the dogs can run and play all day. I’m currently between jobs but anticipate that my next work will be WFH so I can care for the dogs and other farm animals day in and day out. While the yard is not fenced per se, I do have invisible fencing if your dog is used to that system. I have 3 of my own dogs that know the boundaries and stay within them. I have a 3 bedroom house with 2 of the bedrooms unoccupied so there is plenty of space. I have crates of different sizes of your dog prefers to be crated for any length of time. One of my dogs is crated when not home the other 2 are free to roam the house and very well behaved.

About: My family always had pets growing up, I've taken care of dogs, cats, fish, ginuea pigs, and even a few bearded dragons. I've also pet sat for friends, family, and neighbors! I've raised a couple kittens into adulthood too! I currently work throught the week during the day, but my availability opens up at about 5pm. My weekends are usually pretty open. I'm always happy to be flexible whenever possible. The cats I've brought up from kittens ended up affectionate and playful. My current cat is a rescue, due to having a rough early life she ended up extremely shy and anxious, she's taught me a lot about interacting with cats, and more generally animals, that are cautious of people.

“My cats have special needs, with Ariel's background, I was very comfortable leaving them in her care. She graciously came over for not one, but two meet and greets to go over all of the medications and special diets. This really helped put me at ease. Ariel sent pictures and detailed updates. She even gave them extra attention and hand washed their dishes. I'm in the process of booking her again. Thanks so much, Ariel!”

“Jessica was awesome and took great care of my two dogs despite a difficult start to their time together. My dogs decided to be somewhat less than cooperative. Jessica handled the situation incredibly well and allowed me to have a memorable visit with my family.”

Animals I’ve cared for include dogs, cats, horses, goats, snakes, rodents, fish, etc! I’d be happy to help out. Please reach out if you’re interested. Thanks! I’m a stay at home mom so it’s no problem for me! I’m very flexible on hours and pet care. I’m happy to help out! I am very careful about the way I take care of others’ animals and home.

About: We are a cozy, warm, loving family of four who love animals! I (Jenny) rescued my first dog, Summit-a black lab mix over 17 years ago. He was with us for 14 years and our home feels empty now that he is gone, but we aren’t quite ready to commit to having another pet full-time again. We are really looking forward to playing and giving your dog some love and attention! While Matt works a part time job in the winter, weekends are very open for Jenny and the kids. We are home most weekends and would love to have your furry friend join us! We currently have no pets of our own so your fur baby will have ALL of our attention! We have an unfinished basement where a crate will fit perfectly for your pet. Our yard is not fenced, but we have no problem taking the dogs out for potty breaks and walks with a leash. We love to be outside so your pet will have lots of fun with us!! We are home during the winter months and weekends are very open for us! We are available most Fridays-Sundays for your weekend getaways! Some weekdays may also be available. In our home will will require your pet to be crate trained for evenings or if we need to step away from the home for a bit. While we are home your pet will be welcome to join us throughout our home.

About: I have had a love for dogs since I can remember. Growing up on a farm my first priority before school was to make sure all the animals were fed, watered and cared for. Your fur baby will be my first priority when I wake up and for their entire visit with me. I like to take dogs for a long walk through the park or to the dog park when they come visit. I always ensure plenty of exercise and a safe play environment. I always have plenty of time for evening walks, playtime and mental enrichment activities. The dog park is always a must during your pets visit with us! I have a heeler mix rescue that gets along with any dog, him and I go for a walk everyday and would love to take your pup with us! I always make sure they are treated as if they are my own!
