I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind in size for about 13 years , love spending time with your pups and ensuring they are being well taken care of when they can’t be with their best friends. Many people rely on us for sitting / boarding. we are a team of two (My husband and I) and have constant supervision for your pups. We provide daycare and boarding for your pups short or long term. We are able to offer limited grooming. 
I am currently on a very flexible schedule, so can take of your pup during the day / night. I am super close to the off leash park if your pup is allowed to go and also within walking distance of another non off leash park &amp; a walking trail. 
I have a fenced front yard where your pup can play and plenty of indoor space for your pups to enjoy. I can also do crate training if needed. I love going for walks and playing with dogs. I also have had a senior dog and aware of any senior dog’s restrictions and needs and happy to provide a comfortable place for your senior pup. 
I have a fenced yard and also an area inside the house ( living room) that i can keep the dogs separated with a fence so dogs of the same size / vibe can play with each other easily without disturbing the others.
Let me know if your doggy has any specific needs / diet i can make sure to follow their diet / needs. It’s always best to know ahead.
We only accept vaccinated pets and proof of vaccinations is required

🩷Motivation
I adore pets and prefer being around dogs rather than humans. My motivation is my pet dog back in the home country. For me dog sitting fills the part of me that misses my dog back in my home country and will genuinely make me feel happy if my spend my time walking dogs or any job related to dogs. 

Previous experience
I have been working with an NGO named as Animal Friend which focused on feeding the street dogs on regular basis, their welfare and care. I have also worked as a pet sitter back in grad school where I have been responsible for their walls, fun play time, meal time and most importantly becoming their companion.

 Hello, this is KK, some of my client also called me Kwong️ I’m working remotely for most of my week and has a lot of flexibility at work so that I could spend time to take care with mine and yours dogs/ Cats 
Speaking of the pet care experience, I had around 12 years experiences with dogs as I grew up from a family with 7 poodles  (See last few pics of my profile). I grew up with lots of loves from them and unfortunately they are gradually came to the age that needs to be provided senior cares since last couple years🥲 So I did took care of them in their senior age before I moved out from my home country.
I got my little guy last year when I moved to Toronto - a beagle mix, from his 3 mo old till now at his 1.5 yo. He is well trained inside the house and in the outside. He has a lot of energy, and I usually walked him 3 times a day with a hour long walk before sunset and dedicated playtime for him. He is a super friendly lovely cutie who loves to be in a huge dog park with all the giant dogs around him, he is also friendly with small dog as he play pretty gently.
- Experienced feeding oral medication- Experienced taking care of puppies- Experienced taking care of senior dogs
I have most of my time working from home with flexible breaks and off work at 4:30 pm so i can have plenty of time being with my and yours fur-babies  I usually bring my babe to have two 15 minutes walk during working hour and a hour long walk a day on the weekdays and dog park time during Fri - Sun!!


Hey there, fellow pet lovers! Let me share a bit about myself and why I'm incredibly excited to be a pet sitter. Cats have always been an integral part of my life, bringing endless happiness and comfort. In fact, I've been fortunate enough to rescue, nurture, and find forever homes for over 100 adorable felines. It's been an incredibly fulfilling journey so far! My dedication to our furry friends goes beyond being a petowner. I've had the privilege of volunteering with wonderful organizations like Toronto Cat Rescue, Random Rescuer, and currently, AVA Rescue. Working with these organizations has given me invaluable experience in understanding cat behavior, health, and socialization.&nbsp;
While I may not have professional pet-sitting experience, I've had the pleasure of caring for friends' pets on multiple occasions. This hands-on involvement has allowed me to develop a genuine understanding of theirneeds and ensure their happiness and well-being. When you choose me as your pet sitter, rest assured thatyour furry companions will be in a safe and cozy environment. My apartment is a haven for cats, complete with a dedicated room for my own two cats and an extra room where your pet can relax and have their own space if needed.&nbsp;
To prioritize the health and safety of all pets, I kindly request that only vaccinated pets join me in my home. This policy ensures a worry-free environment where your furry family members can flourish.&nbsp;
So, if you're seeking a friendly, reliable pet sitter who will shower your beloved pets with love, attention, and personalized care, look no further! I'm here to provide a nurturing and joyful experience for your furry friends while you're away. Let's create a stress-free and pawsome time together!&nbsp;&nbsp;


Hi there! I'm Gabriel the Pet Whisperer.
I've been taking care of pets for their owners/parents, and training them since I was a child, but am new to this website.&nbsp;
I often travel, and am now a digital nomad, so I can't responsibly have pets of my own. I'm making up for it by being of service to you and your pets.&nbsp;
I have a world class (human) mental health and communication background, and have taught at a university level. I understand animal communication, and have a knack for building trust and bonding with animals.&nbsp;
Recently, a vicious pitbull - kidnapped as a puppy and forced to fight in underground arenas, who hates men especially, and can't leave the house without trying to murder anything that moves - stepped gingerly up onto my lap and kissed my face. This is a day in the life for me.
When I'm in the city I have been helping my fellow traveling friends to house sit, and have been walking and doing basic training with puppies since elementary school with treats, eye contact, and modified clicker(-free) training and behavioural conditioning.
I do not use punishment as a discipline tactic.&nbsp;
I can brush and clip nails, manage special diets, and deliver medicine if necessary. If they are on a schedule, please have it in writing, and sent by email. I will take photos to show completion of time-sensitive activities/routines, and stay in touch about any changes or challenges.&nbsp;
If my availability shows as open, it means I'm in town, and I can stay for just about any length of time. You may have to check in with me for bookings over a month.&nbsp;
Your home is sacred and I will treat it as such:
Beyond personal hygiene and cleanliness, you can expect basic upkeep and homemaking (my mother taught me well), and if your pet takes homemade meals I am, in fact, a chef fantastique.
If you have a garden - either outdoor or indoor you can count on my green thumb and passion for plants to keep your blooming bébés alive and thriving.&nbsp;
You want to feel secure when leaving your pet in the care of someone, and I can offer you that security and peace of mind if my availability is open.&nbsp;
Also, if they don't bring in the newspaper, I will!
I will regularly update you on the status of your home and pet. If you receive mail or visitors you can count at least a daily update. Or, if you prefer to be left alone or more frequently updated, that can be arranged too.&nbsp;
I'm a digital nomad so my schedule is flexible.&nbsp;
I am fit, and can take your pooch for runs, I can and do play, occasionally for hours, and definitely multiple times a day. I don't have a driver's license, so you may want to keep that in mind if you have appointments more than a 1hr walk away, or if your appointment isn't TTC accessible.&nbsp;
WiFi is non negotiable, and the password must be photographed and sent to me before you leave for your trip because I work from home, and any details regarding your internet service provider should be available, in case the internet goes down for more than a couple days, or at least accessible to you so you can send me the details. I can also supervise home care/construction, and/or let workers in and out, document their work and attendance, but I need to know if there will be noise to prepare my workday.&nbsp;
Any expenses such as food, medicine, grooming, or appointments must be paid for/ purchased in advance, or funds must be available for me to purchase. Receipts will be collected, and any additional fees paid out of pocket will be documented and must be reimbursed. We love good karma! All bookings are done through the site, and I don't take tips.&nbsp;
I always keep at least a few days' buffer after our booking in case your flight or gets cancelled or your travel plans change for whatever reason and you need me to stay longer. Standard rates apply, but I will be amenable to sudden changes in plans unless otherwise noted. I prefer to have a local emergency contact in case I can't get a hold of you, as well as the contact of your vet, and any home or pet service providers you anticipate might be involved in you or your pet's life while you are gone - all in writing and sent by email.&nbsp;
Check my posted schedule, and please reach out to me if you have any questions.&nbsp;
I look forward to loving your pet in your stead.&nbsp;
Warmly,
Gabriel


Hi! 
My name is Nataliia or just Nataly. I am 22 years old. I am from Ukraine, and I studied architecture in Poland. my diploma project is Shelter for animals. 
I know 4 languages: Ukrainian, English, Polish and russian.
From my childhood I have a dog and a cat. The dog is a pug (now she is 14 years old). I walked with her every day and taught some base commands. I fed my pets and gave them oral medication if they needed. 
When I moved to another city I set and walked with my friends dogs: big and small. I walked with them in parks and forest.
I very like animals and they like me! I have moved in Toronto in February, and just want to spent some time with pets because now I can not take my own, and also earn some money before I found full-time work. 
I can walk with your dog, teach some base commands. Come and feed your pets or just stay with them some time.
I can provide my services in weekend, or sometimes in usual days.
