Pet care experience

I can’t wait to meet your pet! :)

hello! i’m whit (they/them) :) I've been working in the veterinary care field for 7 years, pet care is my passion! My skills in the work force can translate well into handling elderly, sick or recovering pets. ask me about my nail trimming services! I’ve been offering dog walking and pet sitting as a side job for over ten years. I enjoy doing trails or hikes with the dogs - distance depending on dog’s capability and temperature. Sidewalk walks are great too! I can do short runs also, great for high energy working dogs. Can have dogs in my car, if needed. Will always keep treats on me for positive reinforcement of good behaviour! I have benny bully’s liver treats and royal canin hydrolyzed protein treats for those allergy dogs :) feel free to provide your pets favourite snacks :) I can maintain and help construct training protocols and reinforcement. let me know what works for your pet!

Whit did a great job looking after my cats! I Laverne just loved the attention😀The pictures and notes were very reassuring. I would highly recommend them as a sitter and would most definitely hire them again!

Whit did a fantastic job sitting our cat (Sabrina) and our house. Sabrina warmed up to her right away and that doesn't happen often. She left our house in perfect condition and kept our plants alive. We would definitely hire Whit again.

Whit was amazing. Dealing with my difficult dog that suffers anxiety. She did really well and took good care of my old boy. She has a lot of experience and it shows.

10/10 – Highly recommend this professional dog sitter! It was like no one was even here—the house was spotless when we returned. The sitter washed their own bedding, tidied up, and even sent us lovely photo updates of our pup throughout the stay. Our dog looked happy, well cared for, freshly brushed (possibly even bathed—she smelled amazing!), and clearly loved. Truly went above and beyond. We will be requesting service again!!

Whit did a great job clipping our cats nails, we were really happy with the results. She came when said she would, was very skilled with the clippers, was knowledgeable and very personable! I would highly recommend her services. And she was great with our cat...made her comfortable and happy right off the bat!!

I’m a repeat customer. Whit was great at understanding my cat and respecting her boundaries. Gave me such peace of mind to know Whit was checking on her. I’ll be booking them again.
