Claire's dogcare and pet B&B

Pet care experience

I am a devoted pet sitter with experience with all types of dogs; big or small, and I can handle any dog, I have taken Rover 101 which shows that I skills and knowledge to give your dogs the excellent care you expect and deserve. I will be home all day so your pup gets the love and attention she or he needs. The dogs and pets will be able to roam freely in my apartment, at night the pets will be sleeping in my bedroom with me. If I go out for groceries the pets will have classical music playing softly in the background. There are lots of toys for the dogs to play with. I live 2 minutes away from a wonderful dog park, which has an off leash dog park. I live in a place that is family friendly, but there is no kids, but I live with a dog who is owned by my sister. i have references from my return clients (2) their pets always come to my apartment with their tails wagging and the dogs leaving with a smile on their face when their owners come to pick them up! I'm also a cat lover, I have owned 3 cats and I also volunteer with the Ottawa stray cats, and SitWithUs dog rescue, the cats I have sat loved my company and loved to cuddle and play with me as well. I have also taken care of a special needs dog for 5 months and I have to say that it was a very rewarding experience as I got to see that pup grow into the pup she is now!! I will send you daily updates with photo's, we can even FaceTime so you can see you pup live as well!! If you have any questions or concerns please do not hesitate to contact me, as i will be glad to answer all of your questions or concerns. I look forward to hearing from you, Claire I’m currently dedicating my energy to providing your fur babies with full-time care which means I can give your furbabies all the love and care they’ll ever need. I live close to a beautiful park that has a section of it which is off leash and I’ll soon have a back yard that will be fenced.

Claire is a very sweet lady! I felt so safe to leave Tofu with her. She is very experienced and considerate. Tofu came home cleaner and happier!

Claire is a very caring sitter who could see to our dog's needs. She was very flexible in dropoff / pickup, had prompt communications, and sent update notes and pics. Our dog had a happy stay, and we'll surely seek Claire's services in the future.
