Sheila was fabulous for a quick drop-in visit for our two golden retrievers! I contacted her a few hours before the visit and she responded immediately was more than willing to help out. She was on time, very communicative, and even sent pics while she was there. She updated me as she went and gave me a fabulous recap of the visit and reassured me that the house was locked when she left. She loved on the pups and was so kind. She was absolutely amazing, especially last minute having never been to our house before, and we would love to use her again!

I had Erin help with drop ins while my 8 week old puppy got the hang of potty training while I was at work. She cared for the dogs, played with, gave snuggles and great report cards and pictures. She was punctual and very communicative and flexible if needed. I appreciated her professional manner and would hire her again. Highly recommend!

Thanks to Savannah for taking care of our sweet Howard while we visited family for the holidays. She sent pictures (she is great at capturing pictures of pets -mine are always blurry since they won’t hold still). We felt as ease the whole time knowing our Howard was being cared for and getting the cuddles he deserved! She stayed in contact every step of the way and we can’t thank her enough.

I encourage anyone who needs a pet sitter to use Grace. She took time to truly care for our elderly dog and took notes and pictures. I also missed selecting a morning and she was more than accommodating. We were using pads for our doggie's accidents and she was wonderful in washing them. Thank you Grace. I would recommend her for anyone.

Tara did a great job with the cats! Also she was flexible with us before we left to get things like our alarm system explained to make the whole process easy. Would book again!

I have a very wide experience of taking care of pups! I currently working full-time as a physical educator, as well as a volleyball coach. I am available evenings and weekends all day!

About: I have always had pets in the home. I believe animals are like children. I volunteer part time at prarie paws animal shelter in ottawa to share my love for pets. I train all of my own pets and am able to handle large dogs, difficult leash walkers, and provide mentally stimulating activities. I work 5 minutes from home. On week days I go home for my lunch to care for the animals in my care. The animals will only have to go up to 4 hours during the day without interaction. During this time they will be supervised via a monitor in the room. We are a multi pet home. We have 2 dogs, 1 cat, 3 fish tanks, and even chickens. We love animals! Your pet will have his or her own private suite in our home which includes a bed, Kennel, toys, blanket etc. We provide activities that will help mentally stimulate your pet and ease their anxiety. The upper level of our home is where your pet will be housed, away from the other animals to prevent any conflicts that may occur and reduce any anxiety that may come with unfamiliar animals. We are able to take up to 2 pets. This number is decided on the amount of private space we are able to provide your pet. 2 rooms are available.

We highly recommend Allison!! She goes above and beyond to make sure our fur babies are safe, happy and loved while we’re away. We couldn’t enjoy a vacation without knowing they’re in her capable care. 🥰

About: I've been fond of dogs since I was a child and they have returned the same fondness. Dogs and I have always had a special energy and connection. I guess they can tell I love them, appreciate them and truly believe they are "Mans Best Friend." I enjoy dogs of all sizes and my family has always called me their version of the "Dog Whisperer". When not looking after others fur balls I enjoy three of my own. Cayenne is a black Schnauzer and Kashmir and Jag are Mi-Ki's and were brother and sister from the same litter. All three are 10 years old. I look forward to being of service to you and providing whatever care or attention you need. I live in an apartment so I don't have room to board. I do however enjoy looking and caring for pets in their own environment whether that be walking them, companion visits, helping get them to the vet, etc. Whatever you need I will do my best to deliver. I look forward to meeting you!

About: I grew up on a farm and I have experience dealing with all kinds of animals, and it's a passion of mine to love and take care of animals. For extra money in high school, I would dog sit for family friends while they were on vacation, and I still dog/cat sit for my friends and family occasionally. Recently, both of my childhood dogs passed away. I can't have dogs in my apartment and I feel a longing to bond and spend time with dogs. This job is a wonderful way to utilize my animal experience and also fulfill my need to interact with dogs. I currently work as a real estate agent, so my schedule is very flexible. If you would like your dog walked or cared for routinely throughout the week, let me know and I will be happy to fit you into my schedule! I do not offer dog boarding for clients since I am not allowed dogs/cats in my apartment. I do however love to dog sit or just come by during the day to take them on a walk. I understand animals are a part of the family and it takes a lot of trust to allow someone else to take care of them. I always send you pictures of your pet when I’m caring for them. Not only does this assure you that your pet is in good hands, but who doesn’t love a random picture of their furry friend?!

About: Growing up, we always had dogs in the house. I am experienced in feeding, bathing, walking, playing, and caring for dogs. I have dog-sat for family friends on and off over the years. I have experience with dogs of all sizes, ranging from Dobermans to miniature dachshunds! I am a college student at OU, so I have flexibility during the day between classes to give dogs potty breaks, feed the dogs, and provide some play time/exercise! Most weekends I am not available due to athletics for the college. I will make sure to use only treats and toys provided from your home unless instructed otherwise. If your dog needs to be put in a crate, I will safely and calmly insert and release the dog from their crate! The dog will be played with safely!
