Thoughtful & Stress-Free Pet Care

Pet care experience

I am passionate about dogs and love spending time with them! I had a seven year old husky who was very energetic and loved the outdoors. After having a dog of my own for so many years, I understand the importance of properly caring for pets. I will care for your dog as if they are my own. If you are looking for someone to care for your dog by taking them for walks, visiting them during the day or simply feeding them and being with them while you are away, you can count on me to give you a worry-free experience. Feel free to get in touch with me to coordinate timings and location. Available location: 📍Humberwood

I honestly can’t say enough wonderful things about her. She watched my dog multiple times within just two weeks, and every single time, she went above and beyond. Leaving your dog with someone is never easy, but she made me feel completely at ease knowing he was safe, loved, and being taken care of. What meant the most to me was how genuinely caring and patient she was with him. It never felt like he was just another dog she was watching — she treated him like he was her own. She was so kind, dependable, and understanding, and I always knew I could count on her whenever I needed help. I’m incredibly grateful to have found someone I can trust with my dog. He was always happy and comfortable with her, which says everything to me. I would absolutely have her watch him again and recommend her to anyone looking for someone who will truly care for their pet with love and compassion. ❤️

I had such a great experience with our dog sitter! She took amazing care of my 3-month-old puppy and made me feel completely comfortable knowing my puppy was in good hands. Shaina was caring, attentive, and patient, and kept me updated throughout the stay. It was clear that they genuinely cared about my puppy and treated them like their own. I would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving dog sitter!

Shailja is amazing, has a warm personality and very caring’s She took very good care of my 2 dogs. The dogs got attached to her the moment she met them. She took such good care of them, playing with them, taking them to the backyard for the poop break. When I returned back home, the dogs did not want her to leave. I will recommend Shailja any day, anytime. Thank you very much, Shailja !
