Founder of Non-Profit Animal Rescue

Pet care experience

Hello there, I'm Rebecca! I recently moved back home to Toronto after having lived in the US for 7 years! I'm 31 years old, and hold my Bachelor's degree in Drama, and my Master's degree in Television! Although I love performing, my greatest passion and goal is to rescue homeless animals. While living in Los Angeles, I started my own non-profit animal rescue called, Two Way Street Animal Care. I personally fostered and facilitated adoptions on a full-time basis for kittens and cats in need of forever homes in the city. It was a tremendously rewarding job, however, most of my work was unpaid as I only receive a small amount of donations from my supporters. I expanded my services into dog walking and pet sitting so that I could continue to fund my important rescue work. I hope to take all that I've learned in LA and use it in Toronto so that I may treat and place the many homeless animals in need of help. Experienced in handling all types of animals: -Blind -Deaf -Arthritic -Diabetic -Anxious -Grieving -Bottle Fed -Potty Training -Crate Training *I am able to administer medication if need be Leaving your beloved pet in the hands of someone else is frightening... Believe me! I understand, having cats of my own! I want to put your mind at ease while you are away from your pup or kitty by gaining your trust, and sending you one too many pictures of us having fun while you're away! Thanks for your consideration, Rebecca *Holds valid Canadian Driver's License, registration, insurance, and clean driving record *Lives in Long Branch/New Toronto I have a flexible schedule! I'm available weekdays, weekends, and holidays. Message me for availability! Also, book early if you are in need of a sitter for major holidays. I would be happy to visit or stay over in your home while taking care of your pet! However, I do not offer boarding in my own home.

5-star experience having Rebecca move into my home and care for my senior dog – Piglet. Pre-stay, Rebecca and I had a few meetings and connects to ensure I was comfortable in prep for me being away for 10 days. Each day while I was away, I received photos and notes on Piglet’s progress. Since I’ve been back my neighbors have consistently shared how cared for, he was by Rebecca. Piglet is quirky and an older rescue with a past I don’t have the full scoop on. He adjusted quicker than I expected and simply because of Rebecca’s expertise, calm presence, and loving nature for animals. I got so lucky finding Rebecca on Rover and very grateful she treated Piglet and my home as her own during my time away. Rebecca, it takes a special person to take on an older dog who is also new to me. Thank you for making him comfortable and loving him as much as I do.

We love Rebecca! Our Golden Retreiver is do happy to see her when she arrives for their walks. Rebecca has worked with him on his walking etiquette, greeting people at the door, listening skills and much more. We have seen such an improvement in his behaviour since he started walking with her.

Rebecca took care of Jasper, my 2 year old Blue Heeler, while I was away for a week! He's a very energetic dog, that requires multiple exercise sessions a day. Not only did she give him his daily workouts but she spent tons of time with him, socialized him with other dogs (after getting the okay from me) and spent some additional time training him. Each day she would send regular updates and photos of Jasper playing and having fun. This really put me at ease as I knew Jasper was in great hands. I highly recommend Rebecca for any dog walking, short-term or long-term care needs!

Rebecca is simply wonderful with my puppy, a 7.5 month old cockapoo. She has been working with us weekly for a few months and my puppy is always happy to see her. Rebecca spends her time intentionally to work on leash training, and other important commands. She is warm, encouraging, helpful, timely, caring and very good with dogs. I would highly recommend her to anyone.
