Treating all pets like family ❤
Hello Pet Parents! My name is Holly and I am a 26 year old working professional who has always adored animals. I have had dogs and cats my whole life, and also grew up on a farm with horses, rabbits, cows, and even a donkey at one point! I volunteered at a rescue farm and co-oped at a veterinary clinic in high school, and have experience giving different types of oral medication to both dogs and cats, trimming nails, and providing basic training. I currently live in a small apartment with my 2 cats and am always missing my parents' giant dogs back home in Ontario, so I'm hoping to fill my time caring for (and snuggling with) some furry friends to help cure my dog-sick heart! I am very active and enjoy going for walks and hikes in the area and would love to be able to bring a pet-in-need along! I am a hardworking, reliable individual and I really do believe that all pets are family and should be treated as such, with love and respect. Please consider me for any dog-walking or home visit needs :) Give your pets a cuddle for me!

Safety, trust & environment
I treat all pets as if they are my own - with love, compassion, and respect. I understand that every animal is different and has different needs, quirks, and tendencies and their care should be adjusted accordingly. Whenever I enter a client's home I make sure to respect their rules and belongings, and remember that I am coming into the pet's space and need to initially proceed with caution and earn their trust. Care should be fun but safe!
Ratings and reviews
Holly showed up and took care of our cats as per our instructions. Thanks Holly!
Messaged Holly last minute and was more than happy to help out! Will definitely be getting her back! My pup was very happy!
Holly was very kind and did everything as I asked. My cat requires a fair bit of patience and she has lots! I would definitely hire her again.
Our dog enjoyed his stay with Holly for 2 days. She was easy to communicate with. We would book with Holly again!
Holly was absolutely wonderful. She made sure all 3 of my cats were all taken care of when I had to be out of town. It was nice having someone to be able to drop in when necessary so I didn't need to take the cats out of the comfort of their own home. Her daily check ins provided me with the comfort of knowing they were all okay. Thank you so much, I'll definitely be having Holly back the next time I'm needed out of town!
Well above our expectations! She sent us a Rover card, complete with pictures of her doggy walk and the route, and was responsive to our inquiries. She's without a doubt experienced with dogs, and we would choose her again in a heart beat.

Schedule
I work full-time but during the week I work from home and the hours are short and flexible. I do also work some longer shifts on weekends but those are scheduled far in advance, therefore I would likely not accept requests for days I know I will be gone 8-12 hours.
