Highlights
Pet care experience
Reliable and caring housesitter
Hi! I’m Caroline, an experienced and dependable overnight pet sitter in Hamilton providing calm, structured in-home care for dogs and cats. I know how important it is to leave your pet and home with someone you trust. My goal is to provide a peaceful, consistent presence so your pet feels safe and comfortable in their own environment while you’re away, and you can travel with complete peace of mind. I work full-time as a professional during the day and offer structured, dependable pet care built around routines, safety, and clear communication. I’ve cared for dogs and cats my entire life and genuinely enjoy providing a peaceful, consistent presence for animals while their families travel. I take a limited number of bookings so each pet receives focused, high-quality care. The Experience I Provide • overnight presence in your home • structured feeding, walking, and care routines • calm companionship and supervision • daily updates with photos • close attention to behaviour, health, and wellbeing • tidy, respectful home care • clear and reliable communication I aim to maintain your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible so they remain relaxed, secure, and happy while you’re away. My Care Philosophy My approach is gentle, predictable, and low-stress. I’m best suited for: • pets with established routines • adult or senior dogs • cat households (including multiple cats) • calm or moderately active pets • owners looking for dependable, professional in-home care • tidy, respectful homes I focus on quality of care rather than volume of bookings. Standards & Expectations To ensure the best experience for everyone, I work with clients who value: ✓ clear communication ✓ consistent routines for their pets ✓ responsible pet ownership ✓ respectful home environments I may not be the best fit for highly reactive pets or situations requiring constant 24/7 supervision. Communication & Peace of Mind You’ll receive regular updates and photos so you always know how your pet is doing. I’m attentive to changes in behaviour, appetite, or health and will contact you promptly if anything seems unusual. My goal is simple: for you to feel relaxed knowing everything at home is well cared for. Home Care During overnight stays I also help maintain your home by: • collecting mail and packages • watering plants if requested • keeping the space clean and secure • treating your home with exceptional care Meet & Greets I prefer a meet-and-greet before first bookings so we can review routines, answer questions, and make sure everyone feels comfortable. Availability Overnight housesitting in Hamilton and surrounding areas. Limited availability to maintain high-quality care. Holiday and long-weekend rates apply.

Ratings and reviews
Caroline did a wonderful job caring for our Remi. From the moment she arrived at our home we felt huge relief to have found such a lovely person to stay with Rem when we go away—it almost felt like leaving her with a friend. Caroline’s updates were amazingly thorough, and we knew she and Rem were having a great time, you could see it in Rem’s face. You can tell Caroline really cares. We’re so thankful. We will definitely welcome her into our home again!
Caroline once again took amazing care of our pets. she sent constant updates and photos and we can not recommend her enough
Caroline was amazing. Not only did she take great care of out pets and our house, she was incredibly flexible when our plans changed at the last minute. Would absolutely book with Caroline again
Caroline is amazing. Our dogs are so happy and well cared for. I would highly recommend her and would have her back anytime.
Caroline S. cancelled a booking 1 day before it was scheduled to begin.

Schedule
Pet care easily fits into my daily routine. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to plan drop-in visits or overnight stays around my existing commitments. Caring for animals has always been a natural part of my life, and it is often the highlight of my day. I'm a non-smoker and non-drinker.
