Hi! I grew up loving animals and have a 7-year-old pug back home in India who I’ve raised since she was born. She’s an extremely spoiled little girl and, yes, she used to sleep on my lap! I recently moved to Ottawa for university, and pet sitting is a lovely way for me to spend time with animals while doing something that genuinely brings me a lot of joy and comfort. I’m especially comfortable with small dogs, puppies, and senior dogs. I’m happy to play with them, feed them on time, give them lots of cuddles and attention, and make sure they’re comfortable and their needs are prioritised. I’m easygoing, a quick learner, and generally get along very well with dogs. I’m also comfortable with cats, although I have less experience with them. Availability: I’m primarily available in the evenings and on weekends. Home visits: Visits can be 30–90 minutes, depending on your pet’s needs. I’ll provide food and fresh water, clean up after them, and spend time playing, cuddling, or simply keeping them company. I can also water plants and bring in mail/packages if needed. I’m not able to administer medication. Dog walking: Walks are generally 30–60 minutes, with routes around the neighbourhood or nearby parks depending on your dog’s needs and your preferences. House sitting: I’m happy to discuss house sitting depending on my university schedule. I’ll follow your pet’s routine, keep your home secure, and treat it with the same care and respect I would my own. At the moment, I’m only able to take on small dogs rather than medium or large dogs. Puppies and seniors are absolutely welcome!
