Highlights
Pet care experience
Uni student missing her baby’s!!!
I have extensive experience caring for a wide variety of pets, which sets me apart as a sitter. I’ve had pets my entire life, including four dogs, two cats, a guinea pig, two hamsters, two rats, three hedgehogs, three hermit crabs, a bunny, and of course, several fish. This range of experience has given me valuable insight into the specific needs of different animals, from training puppies and engaging curious small pets to ensuring the comfort and care of senior animals. My familiarity with various species and ages allows me to confidently handle diverse pet needs, providing them with attentive and compassionate care.
Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on creating a safe, comfortable, and trusting environment for both the pets and their owners. I start by learning about the pet’s routine, personality, and any specific needs or safety concerns so I can provide consistent care. I make sure the pet has fresh food and water, a clean and safe space, and I keep a close eye on their behaviour so I can adjust to what they need, especially if they are adjusting to a new person. I’m also mindful of anything in the home that could pose a risk and make sure to follow all instructions provided by the owner. Respecting the client’s home is very important to me, so I always aim to leave things exactly as I found them. My goal is for pets to feel calm, safe, and cared for so owners can feel confident while they’re away.
Ratings and reviews
I’ll gladly have Autumn walk Charlie again. Charlie loves her. Autumn provided Charlie with much needed exercise and provided me with reliable help. I greatly appreciated it.
It was an absolute pleasure to have Autumn as my cat sitter! She was very easy to communicate with and was very understandable about some last-minute changes to my booking. She managed my cat’s quirky personality with ease and great care, and he absolutely adored her. She communicated frequently and sent photos and updates along the way, which was so appreciated and helped ease any anxiety about being away from my cat. She left my place spotless, and I know my cat misses her already! I would hire Autumn to cat sit for me again in a heartbeat :)
Autumn is excellent with my cat and once again left my place exactly as I left it. My cat even came to the door to greet her this time and asked for lots of belly rubs. This is so nice to see as she is normally shy. Thank you Autumn for the excellent care of my fur baby :)
Autumn was excellent. My cat who is usually very shy at first approached her as soon as she got there for the meet and greet and I came home to a happy kittie. My place was left in great condition and she was great to communicate with. I would definitely recommend her for your fur babies.
I can confidently recommend Autumn for pet care services. She is responsible, caring, and very attentive when it comes to animals. She takes the time to understand their needs and makes sure they are comfortable and well looked after. She is trustworthy, dependable, and follows instructions carefully, which made her a great choice to watch my dog. I would very much highly recommend her for any dog sitting, walks, or visits.
I was so happy to have Autumn watch my dog. She was so good with him the first time they met (he’s quite a big dog!) He became comfortable with her very quickly, which was nice to see. She took him for regular walks, and was also able to accommodate dog sitting at her place during the day. Very highly recommend!!

Schedule
I am currently a full-time university student, but I am on summer break which gives me a very flexible schedule. I also work a few hours per week at a small local business, but I still have plenty of availability during weekdays and weekends for pet care.
