Top cities for house sitting in Canada

Are you going away but have a pet that prefers to stay in their own environment? Or perhaps you have a range of different animals and it’s not practical for you to organise for them to stay in different places? Then you might want to consider finding a Pawshake house sitter to come and stay at your Hawkwood home while you are away.

House sitting is a convenient and affordable option when you have multiple pets and also want your house to be securely looked after while you are away. Many of our pet sitters have very reasonable house sitting rates because they enjoy staying and exploring different local neighbourhoods like Hawkwood.

At Pawshake, we understand that trusting your home to a stranger can be a little daunting. So we’ve done all the hard work to ensure that your Pawshake house sitter is trustworthy and reliable. All our pet sitter profiles are checked individually by our dedicated trust and safety team and some house sitters also have their own police checks which they can share with you.

The best thing about engaging a Pawshake verified house sitter is that you can relax knowing that on top of being covered by The Pawshake Guarantee which includes veterinary coverage, so your pets are being cared for in a familiar environment and your Hawkwood home is also being looked after as well. 

In addition to looking after your pets, most of our house sitters will happily help you by collecting your mail, taking out the bins, and watering your plants. Just make sure you discuss all your requirements with your chosen house sitter prior to booking.

! Please note that although we love all pets, we can ONLY look after CATS at this time !

My family and I have always had cats. The cat I grew up with was more of a sibling than a pet, and my current cats are my children. I've had many a cat friend (and occasionally got along with them better than with their humans!), and in social situations, I dedicate as long to my friends' pets as I do to my friends themselves. I've trained my cats to do tricks, walk on a leash, and I brush their teeth daily.

Please make sure to let me know ahead of time if your cats have any preference, special needs, or particular behaviours that I should be aware of; I should be able to accommodate most of these. For instance, I can mix different types of food, adding some water to their food, heating it when it comes out of the fridge, adding supplements/medicine, etc. In some cases, I may also be able to trim claws, clean ears, and the like, if your cat is particularly friendly, too! I have experience administering medicine (pills, liquid medicine injected orally, inhaler, etc.).


Hello~!
I've been looking after my own pets for 19 years, which have included rabbits, cats, hamsters, birds, fish, and a dog.
My area of expertise is rabbit care. I have volunteered with rabbit rescue organizations, and I have spent countless hours researching rabbit care, as their needs and behaviours are quite different from cats and dogs. I have reared multiple rabbits from youth to geriatric age, which has given me the experiences of caring for elderly and disabled rabbits and administering oral and injected medication. Among friends, I am the go-to rabbit parent for advice and rabbit sitting.
I am delighted to offer my services to the pet parents of rabbits and other small animals, in particular, as we are an often overlooked group. Rabbits are affectionate pets with bountiful personality, and I hope they will become more and more popular in the future. I have a huge soft spot and experience with multiple species of pet rodent, as well. They are all unique, no matter how small.
I have also fostered multiple rescue cats who needed to become accustomed to living with humans. In the future, I am planning to have a small dog, but until then, I am happy to take care of yours :) I have had a small amount of experience living with reptiles, and I will continue to expand my knowledge about less common pets. I am comfortable adapting to the particular needs of multi-pet households.
If I had it my way, I would live in a household with all different kinds of pets. I'm a life-long animal lover, and I love seeing all the different ways animals thrive. Pets bring me joy and a sense of peace in ways that nothing else can.
I am grateful for the trust that clients place in me to respect their home and family. I strive to make my presence a safe place for all pets and to always be well-prepared. I am skilled in following complex instructions and am happy to send frequent updates and pictures.
I take health and sanitation very seriously

With over 15 years of pet care experience, I bring consistency, love, and deep understanding to every visit. I don’t just check boxes—I genuinely care. I’m the kind of sitter who shows up early, sticks to routines, and tunes into your pet’s unique vibe. Whether it’s a chill couch potato needing companionship or a high-energy pup who craves adventure, I adapt with care and confidence.I offer reliable house-sitting and drop-in visits, including short-notice and urgent bookings, and I’ll always keep you updated with honest communication, daily reports, and plenty of cute photos. Your pets and home are safe in my hands, always.I’ve worked with senior pets, pets needing medication, and anxious or rescue animals who just need a little extra patience. I’m trained to recognize stress signals, adapt calmly to each animal’s comfort level, and maintain their routines so they feel secure while you’re away.My motivation for pet sitting is simple: I truly love what I do. Animals have been part of my life since childhood, and I find genuine purpose in caring for them. My goal is to make every visit feel familiar, calm, and stress-free for your pet, while giving you total peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands.I treat every home and every animal with the same respect and attention I’d want for my own. Whether you’re away for a night or a few weeks, I’ll make sure your best friend gets all the love, walks, cuddles, and care they deserve. 


Hi, my name is Valsi Almeida. I recently graduated in Veterinary Medicine in Brazil, and I am currently enrolled in the Veterinary Assistant Office program at Bow Valley College to improve my English skills and gain more experience. I have a deep passion for animals and strive to provide the best possible care for them. I have 20 years of non-professional experience as a pet owner and, professionally, 1 year of experience in home care for various types of pets, as well as 3 years of internships in veterinary clinics, I come with letters of recommendation from the places I've worked. I am committed to ensuring the well-being and happiness of your pets.
As a pet sitter, I offer personalized services to meet the specific needs of your furry friend. This includes feeding, walks, playtime, and, of course, lots of love and attention. I am available to care for dogs, cats, and other pets, providing them with a familiar environment while you are away. My motivation to be a pet sitter goes beyond my professional training. I believe that, like us, pets deserve individualized care based on love and dedication. My experience in veterinary medicine has taught me the importance of a familiar environment for the mental and physical health of pets. Being a pet sitter is my way of not only providing basic care but also offering the love, comfort, and personalized attention that each one deserves.
I offer pet-walking (30 minutes) and pet-sitting services. Unfortunately, I am not currently offering boarding and petcare services in my home. I have knowledge of administering oral and injectable medications.


I accept pet walking /sitting/visit.

Welcome to my pet care service! I'm Amy, and I'm passionate about bringing joy to every dog's life. With a deep love for these wonderful companions, I understand the bond between pets and their owners and the importance of providing them with the care and affection they deserve.
My journey in pet sitting and walking began with my cherished dog back in my home country. Although I couldn't bring her along when I relocated, this experience has fueled my desire to connect with and care for dogs in my community. I recognize the love and loyalty that dogs offer, and I am dedicated to ensuring that your furry friend feels cherished, secure, and happy.
Whether you need reliable dog walking or attentive pet sitting, I tailor each service to meet the unique needs and preferences of your dog. I prioritize safety and comfort, ensuring that your pet receives the attention and love they crave. My commitment to exceptional service means you can trust that your dog is in capable hands.

I’ve always loved pets and have a deep passion for animals, especially when it comes to forming connections with them and providing care. Taking care of pets not only brings me fulfillment but also helps ensure that they remain happy and safe when their owners are away. With several years of experience caring for dogs and cats, I provide comprehensive care tailored to each pet owner’s needs, making sure the pets feel comfortable and secure. Recently, I earned a Pet First Aid certification, which allows me to handle emergency situations and offer the best care in case of an unexpected event. Before starting my pet-sitting services, I’d like to understand your pet’s lifestyle and dietary habits to ensure I can provide the best possible care. For the safety and health of all pets, I only accept pets that are up-to-date on their vaccinations. This helps protect all the animals in my care and reduces the risk of contagious diseases.&nbsp;



I offer in your home pet and housesitting for the ultimate comfort of your furry family members!I have provided in your home pet sitting for over 15 years and have loved hundreds of dogs and cats, dozens of reptiles and birds, as well as a handful of bunnies, ferrets and fish. It has been so rewarding to watch animals grow into themselves from tiny energetic puppies, to focused and affectionate seniors.With no pets of my own and petsitting as my primary income source, I am here to love on and interact with your furry family members! I do not have the typical 'workday' prompting me to leave the house, so the majority of my day is spent with your pets!I am an active person who enjoys being outdoors with dogs walking, or running if that is in their typical level of activity. Hide and seek or memory games are also a very entertaining way to help engage critters especially during colder winter months.I leave your home as I found it, ensuring that it is neat and tidy. Any towels or bed linens that I used are washed and dried prior to your return home. I do not smoke, and do not have others over to your home while you are away.

I've been loving animals since I can remember. Growing up, I was the go-to around the neighborhood for friends and loved ones who needed their pets looked after, and that's only continued into my adulthood. I have taken care of the furry friends of friends and strangers alike (cats, dogs, fish, salamanders), and my longest live-in sitting job was for a week and a half (for two high-energy schnauzer-doodle mixes).
I am a student at MRU, and the vast majority of my day is open for house visits or walks. I am available in the mornings, afternoons, evenings - essentially just whenever you need someone to pop in. I'm also available for overnight care on nights that I am not working at my library job. My husband takes care of the house and our cats whenever I'm watching pets overnight, so all is taken care of on that front.
I currently have two cats of my own - Seth and Astrid - and they are the lights of my life. I've also owned Guinea pigs, gerbils, hamsters, and geckos, so I'm well versed in the care of small animals. I have experience with disabled animals (one of my cats is deaf, so I understand alternative methods of communication with animals), and experience with behavioural issues or difficult personalities (my other cat has extreme anxiety around people, so we have had to adapt our lives in order to help her be comfortable.) I also have experience walking reactive dogs, though I would prefer not to unless I understand their personalities and triggers better.
I look forward to loving your fur babies just as much as I treasure my own!

I have always been an animal lover! Pets fill our hearts with joy and understanding and they are part of family.&nbsp;
Allow me to take care of your pet-babies while you can’t and you can bet they will get much love, playful moments and caring attention!
I can take them for walks, play with them, medicate, massage, make them company, guarantee their balanced meals and fresh water change. I can also clean their place.
I have already taken care of puppies, kittens, as well as sick elder pets with diabetes, blindness, cancer, epilepsy and paws-palsy. Even though I am not a vet, I have a background in humans healthcare, which allows me to observe pets with a clinical eye.
* I live in Lincoln Park area and for this year I'll only be able to do 1x daily visits (unfortunately, I can't petsit in my apartment), preferably within 5km from the MRU. Thank you!

Hi ! I'm Aileen, a 60ish retired paralegal, former president (18 years!) on my condo board, a responsible, reliable dog walker, house and pet sitter located in Calgary. I'm an animal lover, any shapes sizes and colors, but my main love is for dogs and dog walking to get me and your fur baby out for an enjoyable walk. Dogs just make me smile and give me that warm fuzzy feeling inside as it takes so little to make them happy and that's simply a walk outdoors so they can sniff every blade of grass if they choose to!&nbsp;&nbsp;
After I lost my Maltese Pepe at age 18 in 2018, I very much enjoyed engaging with my neighbors who entrusted me to take their fur baby out and escort me on my daily walks...or required care if their parents took a trip away or just needed to work late and couldn't get home to their pooch for dinner and a walk. I quickly became the go to person since I was retired and accessible most of the time. I should mention that Pepe became diabetic last 5 years of his life which required me to inject him daily with insulin. I've also been known to teach my furry friends a few tricks in a short time...always impresses the fur parent and me!&nbsp;
I'm available for walks and can do over night house sits (for dogs and cats) at your home where I will spend much quality time and care for your pet or pets. I'm passionate about providing my clients with a peace of mind knowing that their home and pets are in safe caring loving hands. Thanks for considering me.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
