I have over 15 years experience with babysitting, house sitting and animal sitting. With planning day to day activities, to adventures and trail hiking. I am very enthusiastic, motivated and treat everyone I meet like family. 
When I was younger, I started my own dog walking pet business. Assisted with making sure the dogs got a good workout. If younger and required training, I would be able to continue with the basics that you have already influenced in your dogs day to day life. 
If you require some training to be continued; I would definitely be able to assist in the method you prefer. 
 I will have my 5 month old baby with me, who has experiences with dogs and cats.
If you require any cleaning, sweeping, floors washed, dishes that you didn't have time to finish before leaving. Please let me know and I will make sure they are finished prior to coming home. I always find coming home to a clean home after vacation is a little more relaxing when you do not have to worry about anything else that needs to be done. 
Previously; I worked for Carnival Cruise Line, traveling for the past 5 years and learning how to include fun with all guests and to make sure everyone on board was greeted with a smile. I always go above and beyond and will definitely do the same if hired with you. 

I am a long-time Waterloo resident known by neighbors as a dependable "safe pair of hands" for their pets. I genuinely enjoy the steady, calm energy dogs bring to a day and believe in providing a structured, happy environment where they can truly thrive. My approach is simple: I provide calm, steady companionship so your dog feels settled and well-exercised while you're away. Whether your pup is high-energy or on the shy side, I focus on building trust through a predictable routine and a patient, positive attitude.
What to Expect:

Active Play: I typically provide one hour of outside play exploring local trees and fields.
Nervous Pets: I am patient with shy dogs and use gentle enrichment activities to help them feel secure and build confidence.
Medications &amp; Safety: I am comfortable administering oral medications as needed and am always prepared to follow your specific emergency protocols.
Capacity &amp; Availability: I prioritize quality of care by taking only a limited number of dogs at once, ensuring your pet gets the focused attention they deserve.
Training Reinforcement: While not a professional trainer, I am highly comfortable reinforcing your established house-training, socialization, and basic command routines.
Behavioral Support: I specialize in managing different energy levels by building trust through predictable routines and a patient, positive attitude.
Off-Leash Options: If your dog has great recall, I’m happy to visit off-leash areas for a more vigorous run.
Experience: I have years of practical experience, including a dedicated six-month stretch providing daily care for a friend's dog.
Communication: I prioritize peace of mind by sending regular photo updates throughout our time together.


For the safety and health of everyone involved, I only accept pets that are fully up-to-date on their vaccinations. This helps ensure a safe and healthy environment for all the animals in my care.



I have always lived with pets, and caring for animals has been a constant part of my life. Growing up surrounded by dogs taught me how important routine, patience, and affection are for their wellbeing. This lifelong experience is what motivated me to become a pet sitter.

I offer in-home pet care and dog walking services, making sure pets can stay comfortable in their own environment while their owners are away. During home visits, I follow each pet’s usual routine carefully, including feeding, fresh water, playtime, and companionship, so they feel safe and relaxed. I always take time to give pets attention and reassurance, especially those who may feel anxious when their owners are not home.

For dog walks, I adapt the pace and length of the walk to each dog’s age, energy level, and personality. Whether a dog enjoys calm walks or needs more active outings, I make sure they get the exercise and mental stimulation they need in a safe and controlled way.

I am attentive, patient, and respectful of each pet’s unique personality. I only care for vaccinated pets to ensure a safe environment. My goal is always to treat every pet as if they were my own, providing reliable, loving, and responsible care.

My name is Michelle. I'm a wife, stay-at-home-mother, dog-mom, and an artist and entrepreneur. My life is all about flexibility, between caring for a newborn amidst a husband working (and trying to concentrate) from home, entertaining a nine-year-old (and getting her to and from this and that), giving our doggo all the love and comforts of indoor life he deserves, and making time for myself either to relax, paint, or get ahead on projects for my business. So, I'm on Pawshake to help others achieve flexibility in their schedules and find balance as well.&nbsp;I combine my love of furballs, my dog-mom experience, and my desire to not literally be a stay-at-home-100%-of-the-time-mom (yeah ... let's call that my eager and enthusiastic work ethic), to provide my customers' canine friends with the best at-home visits and outdoor strolls.&nbsp;Additionally, my customers can opt-in for a bonus service of socializing their furry friend(s) with mine: "Loyal" Lloyd - a goofy and gentle, rescued (neutered and vaccinated) northern Quebec reservation dog who loves basically everyone.&nbsp;Do I sound like just what your pup needs? Then you know what to do. Let's meet your pawsome pal(s)!&nbsp;

Hello! My name is Kartik Arora, and I'm a passionate and dedicated pet sitter with a genuine love for animals. Pets have surrounded me from a young age, ranging from dogs and cats to birds and small mammals. This early exposure nurtured my deep affection and understanding of animal behaviour, making pet sitting a natural fit for me. I will provide pet walk and pet sitting at the owner's house 

My motivation to be a pet sitter stems from my belief that pets are cherished family members who deserve the best care, especially when their owners are away. I understand how stressful it can be to leave your furry friends behind, so I strive to provide them with a safe, loving, and fun environment. I aim to ensure that every pet feels comfortable and happy in my care, giving their owners peace of mind.

I have several years of experience in pet sitting, during which I’ve handled various breeds and temperaments. I prioritize safety and health, so I only accept vaccinated pets into my home to ensure the well-being of all animals in my care. Whether it's daily walks, playtime, feeding, or administering medication, I tailor my services to meet each pet's specific needs.
