A typical day

Exercise outings such as walks in the parks or trails provide valuable socialization opportunities for dogs. Meeting and interacting with other dogs and people helps them develop proper social skills and improves their confidence and friendliness towards others. Burning off excess energy through exercise helps reduce hyperactivity, anxiety, and stress, leading to calmer and more manageable behaviour at home. A tired dog is a happy and well-behaved dog!

Pet care experience

I grew up on farms and have taken care of all kinds of pets! I love dogs and cats, ok dogs probably a bit more :) as a tenant I cannot have pets of my own so I can't wait to take care of yours! I pet sit currently for friends and family and 'm excited to extend my services through Rover. Trust me to provide a safe, fun, and enriching experience for your beloved companion, tailored to their unique needs and personality.

Cindy stayed for a week in June and house and cat sat for me. I was very pleased with her care for my cat and space. I received daily photos and videos of my cat cuddling and hanging out with her. In coming back to my space it was left just as I had left it, clean and organized! Cindy even took the time and added in some of her own personal details to care by providing some complimentary hand towels. I would absolutely invite Cindy back again to care for my cat and space. Was a pleasure meeting and working with her!

Thank you Cindy for looking after our 2 dogs while we were on vacation! We have two full size dogs, one is a German Shepherd and naturally a bit skiddish with new people at first. Cindy took the time to get to know our dogs and build a relationship with them. She sent us photos and videos of our dogs playing while we were away. Cindy is very reliable, professional, and very prompt to respond to our communications. Our house was clean and tidy when we returned as well. We would highly recommend Cindy as a dog sitter. Thank you again!

We couldn't be happier with the care Cindy provided while staying at our home. What impressed us most was her ability to build a relationship with our two dogs. One of our pups is a rescue with significant trust issues, and Cindy was patient and intuitive in earning their confidence. She kept us completely at ease with frequent updates, photos, and detailed reports. It was clear our dogs were happy and well-cared for. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a thoughtful, trustworthy sitter!
