“Shelby is WONDERFUL with both my high energy beagle/lab mix and with my little old shih tzu. She sends pictures while I’m gone, is very meticulous with notes at a meet up and updates as well. I trust her in my home and with my pups. Highly recommend.”
“Jack and Emily took very good care of Riley. They spoiled her and made her comfortable as it took her a day or two to adjust to her new surroundings. Jack was good about sending pictures and updates. He even sent her home with a special treat. Thank you for watching her for us!”
About: I've cared for family and friends dogs since I was a teenager, as well as our own dogs. I have experience with diabetic dogs and other medical needs. I work part time and will spend my off time with your pup. I like to meet everyone before sitting so I can get to know their routines and make sure everyone is comfortable! I will care for your pets as you do. I typically visit the home before dogsitting to meet the dog and see what their routine is.
About: From the first moments I could remember, I have always been around and caring for dogs and cats. I'm also a professional equine bodyworker, with medical experience that is easily translated over to our smaller, 4-legged friends. I take a gentle and intuitive approach with animals, focusing on positive reinforcement. I will care for your pets as if they were my own. I have plenty of flexibility in my schedule. If staying at your home, I will never be gone for more than 8 hrs at a time. Weekends are usually no issue to schedule around either While staying at your home, I stick to the routine you have developed with your pets to make it as stress-free as possible. I recognize the importance of structure with dogs and cats, and losing that while their humans are away can be a big stressor. I will do my best to act as an extension of you while you are away to ensure the most personalized care.
About: I have had and taken care of dogs since a very young age. I have always taken pride to help care for dogs. Even with special abilities or medical problems. My dog Luna was Diagnosed with Epilepsy. So I am experienced and know what to do it high risk situations I work a full time job Monday through Friday from 8:30-5. I am free anytime after 5pm during the week. I am unable to do weekends or stay over nights. So if your looking for a 4-5 hour sitter. I'm your person! I will not be able to take your dog to my house. I can crate, walk, watch, or anything you would like me to do.
“We had another great experience with Sarah. She was responsive and took great care of our dog as well as our home. She went above and beyond and we look forward to having her stay again.”
“Great sitter/walker. Karen did a great job taking care of the animals and sent nice picture updates on our 4 animals. The cats it seems took to her right away. We will hopefully get her to watch our animals again in the future.”
“Lydia did a great job housesitting my large dog and one cat for a few days. She was a good communicator, tidy, and we loved the pics. Would definitely use again! Thanks Lydia!”
“Melissa was amazing! We felt so comfortable leaving Gannon with her the moment we met her. Coming back we could tell he was well taken care of. Will absolutely use her again!”
“Carly was AMAZING! My boys are great with strangers but I could tell they looked forward to seeing her the whole time she was watching them. I didnt mind if she spent a ton of time with them to try and make sure they weren’t too high maintenance but she spent lots of time snuggling them, and giving them toys when she came over. Very quick and great communication. I would absolutely recommend her for your babies!”
“Katelynn was awesome! I completely trust her with both my pup and my home. She made sure my high energy dog had plenty of attention and activity and was a great communicator. Highly recommend.”
About: Hi there! I'm Becca. I love animals and grew up living and helping on my family’s beef cattle farm. I have cared for a large variety of pets and farm animals since I was young. My clients typically own cats and/or dogs, but I have also cared for clients’ horses, donkeys, alpacas, goats, chickens, aquarium pets, fish (etc.). I currently still live on the family farm, and personally own a horse and four sheep. I also help care for the family dog and cats. I have 10+ years of in-home pet sitting experience. I offer in-home pet care and house sitting with overnight stays and would love to care for your pet(s) while you’re away! I work on the farm and freelancing jobs so I can usually create my own work schedule aside from a few times where it’s dependent on others’ schedules. With that being said, I am accommodating as possible around my own work schedule. I could leave from your home and return after work. Some days I won’t have work at all. If this schedule works for you and your pet(s), I look forward to working with you! I understand that every pet has their own unique care. Each animal’s specific routine is important. I will learn their likes and dislikes and what works best for your pet(s)!
“Shauna was great with out two dogs. She took great care of them and took care of the house. She kept us updated and sent pictures throughout her stay. I highly recommend her and will be asking her to dogsit again.”
About: I have a natural love of animals. I have acquired many animal care skills over the last ten years of animal ownership and through my employment at a doggy kennel/daycare. Lastly, have a certification in animal science form Niagara BOCES. Pet care fits my schedule whenever needed. My goal for my future is to work with animals. Therefore, I will adjust my schedule to whatever works best for your animals. In other words, at this point in my life I am flexible! If I am providing care in my own home: I have a fenced in yard, 1 dog of my own and 5 cats to keep your baby company. I follow your directions on how to care for your animals whether in my home or in your home. I will always stay outside with my charges to keep them company and actively play with your fur child.
About: I have loved dogs my whole life. Unfortunately (with the exception of when I was very little and one year as a teenager living with my mother) I grew up without dogs living with my father in an apartment. Getting married changed that as my wife at the time of dating had one dog and we now have 3 wonderful dogs, all rescues. We have also fostered in the past. I am passionate about rescuing dogs and dogs (and all animals) rights to a loving home free of abuse. I receive so much joy from being with dogs and have formed a strong bond with all 3 of our kids. My wife and I have no human children so the dogs are pretty much our life. As of now I am in between jobs so I have a lot of availability. I am looking for late mornings through the evening. I unfortunately cannot do overnights or earl mornings. I don't think I could do it at my house as out dogs do not always get along with others especially on their territory. I would be available to work I your home or I can provide dog walking services.
“Jillian was amazing! We had to leave to the UK for a ten day trip and we needed someone we could trust to watch our two dachshunds. I was very worried about leaving my senior dachshund especially because he takes medicine morning and night and has a history of IVDD. Jillian understood their routine right away and our dogs loved her! She's responsible, attentive and has great energy. She even fed my husband's fish and axolotl! She is great and we would use her again to take care of our doggies in a heartbeat!”
About: Hi. I’m Sabrina. I have experience with dogs and cats since I was a child. The love I have for animals is something everyone around me recognizes quickly! Animals make life enjoyable and so much better, and they only deserve the best and happiest of times! I have my own dog and two cats yet, always enjoy helping friends or family out with watching their pets, stopping by to check on them, giving the cats some love down to walking the dogs. My life revolves around caring for animals. When im spending time with my animals, they go everywhere with me and really enjoy car rides with the windows down, water/ice cups from Tim Hortons, pup cups from Starbucks, running in the parks, or just simply playing fetch in the yard. Animals truly bring so much happiness in my life! I have open availability to care for animals. Available unless I’m watching a client already. I do not watch more than one client at a time . Instructions will be given to me from client of feeding, exercise schedule. Animals will be safe under my care and won’t be exposed to dangerous environments

“Trinity has been the “go to” person in my life whenever I’ve needed assistance with my cats and dogs. I have known Trinity since she was a baby and she has always had a natural inclination towards animals and they have always been very comfortable and attached to her. Specifically, Trinity has been the groomer for my current rescue dog who is very timid around most humans. Trinity has been the only person who has been able to comfortably groom my Cavi-poo for the past two years. I confidently recommend Trinity to provide pet care!”
Scott L.
“Hello… I am pleased to give a testimonial about Scott becoming a dog sitter. I first met Scott in 2015 and he has become a truly trusted friend. At the time he had 3 elderly dogs he rescued and provided a loving home for their final years. He has since gotten 3 new rescues that are treated like members of the family. Scott also cares for his chicken’s extremely well and I know he wants some goats in the future. Scott is truly a animal lover. He will treat any animal with respect and caring. I highly recommend Scott as a dog sitter and would be happy to discuss his qualifications anytime.”
