Availability

I’m currently a PhD student working remotely, which gives me a very flexible schedule throughout the day. My work involves designing and running experiments, with natural breaks in between, so I have plenty of time for walks, playtime, and attentive care. Since both my partner and I work from home, pets are rarely left alone and receive constant attention, companionship, and supervision throughout the day. This allows us to provide a stable, calm, and engaging environment where your pet always feels cared for. We lead an active lifestyle and regularly go on walks, hikes, and visits to parks or nearby green spaces. I love including dogs in these activities, giving them both physical exercise and mental stimulation. I can easily adapt to your pet’s routine and energy level, whether they need calm company, structured care, or more active outings.

Safety, trust & environment

Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being are my top priorities. I provide a calm, structured, and secure home environment where pets feel safe and cared for at all times. We live in a two-story condo, which allows easy separation using a baby gate if needed. If your dog gets along well with mine, they can play and socialize together. Otherwise, I can safely keep them in separate spaces to ensure everyone is comfortable. Our home also has a spacious balcony where pets can relax, enjoy fresh air, sunbathe, or be cleaned after a fun, muddy day. For extra peace of mind, we have cameras in each room in the rare case we need to step out briefly. We are located near several great outdoor areas, including a dog park about a 10-minute walk away and larger green spaces like Parc Maisonneuve just a few minutes by car. Daily walks and outdoor time are part of our routine. I only care for one pet at a time to ensure full attention and avoid overcrowding. Pets receive frequent potty breaks and, if appropriate, around 2–3 hours of exercise per day, depending on their needs and energy level. I carefully follow all care instructions, including feeding routines, medications, and any special requirements such as allergies or behavioral needs. I’m happy to provide regular updates, photos, and even video calls so you can stay connected with your pet while you’re away.

Information Sara K. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your dog has any allergies, medical conditions, or sensitivities, and whether they are reactive to specific situations (other dogs, noises, being alone, etc.). I’d also love to learn their usual routine in detail, including feeding schedule, medications, and allowed treats, so I can keep things as consistent and comfortable as possible. For everyone’s safety, I only accept vaccinated pets. Please also share your vet’s contact information and an emergency contact, just in case. If your dog has any specific habits (crate training, sleeping preferences, commands they know, or things that help them relax), feel free to include those as well. The more I know, the better I can care for them 😊

A typical day

We usually start our day early around 6am with a trip to a nearby park like Parc Maisonneuve or Parc Honoré Mercier. Dogs get about an hour of active time in the morning with jogging, playing fetch, swimming (when possible), and exploring based on what they enjoy most. After that, we head home and start our workday. Since we both work remotely, dogs stay close to us and relax nearby. If needed, we can easily separate them between floors so each pet feels comfortable and safe. Throughout the day, I give them attention, pets, and the occasional treat. Every couple of hours, I take breaks to play indoors, brush them, or go for short walks and potty breaks around the neighborhood. In the evening, we head out again for another park session with about an hour of playtime. If the weather is nice and the dogs are enjoying themselves, we often stay longer to end the day on a fun and active note.

Pet care experience

I’ve been caring for animals since high school, regularly volunteering with shelters and rescue organizations. Through this, I’ve gained hands-on experience with many types of pets, including dogs, cats, rabbits, birds, and even turtles. I’m comfortable with different personalities and temperaments, from calm and shy to energetic or anxious pets. I also have a rescue dog of my own, which has given me strong experience with training, structure, and handling behavioral challenges. I’ve worked consistently on obedience, routine, and building trust, so I understand the patience and care some pets need. I can confidently help with feeding, walks, playtime, basic training reinforcement, and administering medication if needed. My goal is always to make pets feel safe, understood, and well cared for while you’re away 🥰

Sara was great with our puppy. She is very calm and kind. During taking care of our corgi, she sent me a lot of updates. I will call her again, for sure!

I couldn't be happier with Sara's service. She was incredibly sweet and attentive to our furry babies, taking perfect care of my sick ferret and his cat sister and sending daily updates. She made me feel calm being away from my sick baby. I definitely recommend her and will book with her again if she's available 😊
