Pet Sitting Parkside

“Sammy was an amazing cat sitter and I can’t recommend her enough. She is incredibly kind and clearly has a natural way with animals. My cats are usually very shy and take a long time to warm up to new people, but they were comfortable with her almost immediately, which says a lot. She kept me updated while I was away and sent lots of photos, which gave me so much peace of mind. It was clear they were happy, relaxed, and well cared for. I would absolutely trust Sammy to watch my cats again in the future!”

About: I’ve always loved animals and enjoy caring for them. I currently care for seven chickens, which has taught me responsibility, consistency, feeding, and paying close attention to their needs. I’ve also cared for my mom’s dog while she was away and helped care for my sister’s puppy. I have a flexible schedule right now and would love the opportunity to give your pets plenty of attention, playtime, and care. While I’m not quite ready to have a pet of my own, pet sitting feels like the perfect way for me to spend time with animals and provide them with the love and attention they deserve. I’m currently taking two classes on Monday and Wednesday mornings, each for about two hours. I also enjoy going to the gym and have a flexible schedule around my seven-year-old son’s school schedule. I’m usually up around 7 AM and have plenty of availability throughout the week. I’m happy to communicate with each pet parent and work together to find a schedule that works well for everyone. I’m very attentive to detail and always make your pet’s safety and comfort a priority. I understand that some owners prefer minimal communication while they’re away, so I try to respect that while still keeping them updated when needed. If I’m ever unsure about something, I’ll always ask rather than make assumptions. My home has plenty of space for pets to relax and play, along with a fully fenced backyard where they can safely go potty and enjoy some outdoor time. We have a calm, quiet home with few people coming and going, which helps pets feel comfortable. There is usually someone home, so pets are rarely left alone. If they do need to be alone, it would typically be no longer than 2–3 hours.

“Jacqueline was super communicative and took lots of photos, which I appreciated! She's very warm, welcoming and I felt very safe leaving my senior dog in her care. Added bonus: she knows and feels comfortable handling dog-aggressive dogs, which was a big relief for me!”

“Okmi did an excellent job looking after our cat. Our loved cat Asya was happy, safe and healthy while we were out. This cat is not easy with new people around her, but Okmi seems has a talent and our pet listened:) We will definitely have Okmi again! Thank you dear!”

About: You know that person who your dog immediately and inexplicably loves? That's me 😉 True story: I've never met a dog I didn't love (or one that didn't love me back...even if it was in their own special way). As a dog mom of two, I know the level of trust required to hand your furry ones off to a new person. That's why I love and care for your dog with the same level of attention, caution, and knowledge I give my own fur children. I'm available on a flexible schedule most days of the week and weekend in between client work for my full-time job (and caring for my own pups). I follow each and every direction you give me to a "T" when I take your dog for a walk. They will remain on leash and in my site at all times, no exceptions. Safety is number one (and number two goes in a bag 😉). 🐩 Honey can't so much as a lick a blade of grass because of her sensitive tummy? No problem. 🐕 Daenerys needs an anti pull leash and can, under no circumstances, jump on strangers? Got it! 🐶 Remy likes his water out only out of a hydroflask? Well, get ready to hyrdate buddy!

“Madelyn, thank you for taking such good care of Frodo! The pix are great, plus the extra info on how he’s been doing. When we returned from our trip today, Frodo was a happy, content cat — just as we love to see after being gone a few days.”

“Brooklyn did a great job taking care of my kitty when I had to go out of town on short notice. She was wonderful to work with, her attention to detail and communication skills are top notch. My shy cat quickly warmed up to her after a few visits. This shows that Brooklyn is great with animals, as my pet is very selective about who she trusts. I look forward to booking with Brooklyn again and I would highly recommend her to others looking for a pet sitter.”

About: I’ve loved and cared for animals for as long as I can remember (I’ve been sneaking animals in my home since I was in diapers😌), and being around them truly makes me happiest. I’m incredibly empathetic toward animals (I don’t even kill bugs!), so every pet in my care is treated with gentleness, patience, and genuine love. The dogs in my photos are my beloved old pups (Milo the Golden Retriever and Yoshi the Shih Tzu) Milo was 8wks when I got him and Yoshi was 5wks — I don’t currently have any dogs, but I do have two friendly cats at home. Lucy my tiny little black cat🖤 and Foggy my orange menace 🧡 (both rescues) I have hands-on experience caring for and training my own dogs over the years, from large breeds like Dobermans to small breeds like Shih Tzus. I’ve also had cats my entire life so growing up half my cats were kitties I found, some even needing bottle feeding. I'm comfortable with all things feline — from playful kittens to independent seniors. Beyond dogs and cats, I’ve cared for chickens, birds, and many other kinds of pets throughout my life. I love getting to know each animal’s unique personality and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and happy while you’re away. With me, your pet won’t just be watched — they’ll be cared for like family. 💛 Haaay! 🌾 *ba-dum tss* As you see being a stand up comedian wasn’t my calling so here I am 🥲 My name is way too long so I just go by Mari I’m a stay-at-home mom with lots of free time and even more love to give your fur babies! I’m not a regular mom, I’m a cool mom! 😎 I currently live in Vancouver, Being home most of the day means I can give your pet plenty of attention, care, and one-on-one time. I’m available for walks and drop-ins on weekdays from 7am–4pm and Sundays from 7am–1pm, with flexibility whenever possible to help fit your schedule (I remember how hard it was finding help when I had my pups and ended up taking them to work with me) Whether your pet needs a fun walk, playtime, a potty break, or extra cuddles, I’m always happy to help! We will spend much time out exploring, enjoying fresh air, getting in plenty of movement and mental stimulation. Walks, sniff breaks, and outdoor adventures are very important to me in order to keep a pup happy and healthy! I’d love to be your fur baby’s (and yours!) new friend and help make their day (also yours!😌) a little brighter!✨🐾🩷 Expect lots of cute photos and videos so you can see your fur baby’s enjoying every walk, play session, and cuddle break.📸 Your fur baby's safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities — they’ll get plenty of love, cuddles, and care, and will feel right at home!🩷

About: While I've grown up with dogs and cats, I also have professional pet sitting experience taking care of dogs with diabetes, blind cats, guinea pigs, and even a llama! Pets and their caretakers have trusted me so much, they have flown me to their new homes after moving out of state for further petsitting assignments. I give emotional connection and comfort to pets while they're missing their humans, even reading aloud to them, because I believe it is an integral part of the job. Currently, this is my primary work, so I will have time to spare to take care of your animals. I volunteer regularly at animal sanctuaries and other orgs to improve the lives of animals. I have typically been asked to spend the night with the pets in the client's home, and spend as much time with them as possible, but I can also make daily visits instead if necessary. If you prefer I make visits, keep in mind the distance it would take for me to get to your place, and consider allowing me to make fewer, longer visits instead of multiple brief ones throughout the day.

“Carissa is fantastic!”

“Aaron is one of the best dog sitters I’ve been able to work with. He is extremely understanding with both you and your pet. Aaron provided daily drop in visits for my pup for 3 weeks and my boy had so much fun with him. And even had a dog buddy to play with! (Aaron’s dog Louie) I would recommend Aaron to everyone. He even assisted with some clean up when my pup decided to chew on things. 10/10 I will hire Aaron and Louie again!”

About: Hi, I’m Talena! I've always had a natural passion for dog handling and consider myself an amateur dog trainer. I use positive reinforcement techniques to keep dogs engaged, happy, and safe. Whether your little one needs a high-energy playtime or structured guidance, I'd love to provide the dedicated care they deserve! I work at a local credit union, which provides me with a highly stable and structured schedule. This flexibility allows me to easily commute to your home and dedicate plenty of quality time to caring for, feeding, and playing with your pets in their own comfortable environment. When caring for pets in a client's home, I strictly follow their established routines, secure all entry points, double-check leashes during walks, and keep harmful items completely out of reach to ensure a safe, stress-free environment.

About: I’ve been an animal lover since a kid. With 20 years experience in animal care, I have a way with animals that makes them feel right at home. I’m Experienced in caring for both dogs and cats, I provide dependable, detail oriented pet sitting, tailored to each animal’s unique needs. My approach combines structure, affection, and reliability to ensure your pets stay relaxed, well cared for, and loved in your absence. I’ve watched pets for 3+ years as a stay at home parent and I’m excited to meet you and your pet. I’m currently a stay at home parent, so I’m here at the house all day. I have two children, 5 and a 3 1/2 year old. They love animals so much and are out of the house during the day for school. I do occasionally leave to go to the grocery store or appointments, but I’m never gone long my day consists of early morning wake ups to prepare for school days and later evenings tending to the house. As a full-time stay-at-home parent, my daily life allows me to give pets steady attention and care throughout the entire day. I intentionally structure my routine to include regular meals, potty breaks, playtime, and quiet rest, so pets feel comfortable and included. They’re not just checked in on—they’re part of a warm, attentive home where they receive consistent care, reassurance, and love. Pets in my home are cared for in a calm, safe, and loving environment where they’re treated like part of the family. I maintain their regular routines with consistent feeding, potty breaks, and plenty of attention throughout the day. Whether it’s playtime, quiet rest, or extra comfort, I make sure each pet feels secure, relaxed, and genuinely cared for while they’re away from home. My goal is to continue the same routine that each pet has on a daily here in my home. I strive to basically be their home away from home.

“Avery was AMAZING with our animals. One of our dogs hates meeting new people but ended up being very comfortable with her and got some kissing in. We loved the photos that were taken for the report card and hope to be able to book with Avery again in the future!”

About: I’ve grown up with animals, volunteering with pet rescues as a foster home, as well as owning various of my own! I’ve had a range of pets like frogs, turtles, fish, dogs, cats, and small snakes! I’m really patient and open to a many of pet behaviors from quiet and reserved to crazy and fun! I’m a full time SAHW, so my schedule is able to be completely catered to personalize each pet client’s experience in my presence. For boarding, potty breaks can be as often as needed, and activities can be flexible for any pet’s needs. My home is an open-plan style, so there’s lots of room for everyone and their activities! I have multiple cat towers, dog beds, toys, rugs, and carpet areas for luxury laying down time. I have rooms to separate pets that may not get along, and I am experienced in handling uncomfortable situations in my own space. When I attend a client’s home, I really like for my pet clients to get most of my attention as scheduled, since my partner can always take care of our own pets while I’m away. I’m patient, I get as comfortable as allowed to help the environment for the pet, and I love to see other pets as my own friends.

About: Hi! I’ve always loved animals and grew up helping care for pets, so I’m comfortable with feeding routines, walks, playtime, basic grooming, and giving each pet the patience and attention they need. Now that my husband and I have bought our first home, I’m excited to fill it with wagging tails and happy paws. I work from home on East Coast hours, so my afternoons are wide open for exercise, companionship, and plenty of one-on-one care. I’m attentive, dependable, and happy to follow your pet’s usual routine so they feel safe and right at home. Working from home gives me the flexibility to fit my day around your pet’s routine. I work East Coast hours, so I start early (5:30am) and finish around 2 PM. Throughout the day, I have time for potty breaks, playtime, and check-ins, and my afternoons are open for walks, companionship, enrichment, and quality time together. Whether I’m caring for your pet in my home or yours, my goal is to keep their routine as consistent as possible. I’ll follow your instructions for feeding, walks, medications (if needed), playtime, and any other preferences to help your pet feel comfortable and secure. In my home, they’ll enjoy a fully fenced backyard for supervised outdoor time, a quiet, comfortable environment, and a walkable neighborhood that’s perfect for daily walks.
