About Chelsea

I am a conscientious pet parent and animal lover living in Toronto's West end, offering my services to folks who need cat visits, cat-sitting, dog care/occasional dog-walking, or general small animal care. I also have my own senior cat, Aggie.

Experience handling and caring for small animals: hamsters, rats and ferrets, and have also owned and cared for freshwater fish.

A visit to your pet(s) will include feeding, time spent with them, a trip outside to use the facilities (if they are an indoor/outdoor animal), and cleaning/changing litterboxes or pee-pads. I am happy to brush them, pet them, and play. 

A visit will last 40-50 minutes.

For walks, I am more comfortable walking medium to small dogs who are leash-trained and are acquainted with potentially social situations in parks, on paths or sidewalks.

Please let me know about administering oral medication and other particulars as needed. I am comfortable committing to overnight stays for up to 3 nights, in order to ensure I am home often enough to care for my cat. *My main source of transportation is the TTC and occasionally Lyft/Uber. I look forward to working with folks who will be patient and descriptive with their preferred pet care. I thrive on details and communication as well as caring for and nurturing animals; please do not hesitate to keep lines of conversation open as well as feedback and instruction.

For first time bookings: I will always make time for a **meet and greet so that you can ensure you are comfortable and satisfied with the booking. Looking forward to spending careful, quality time with your pets!

*Area of service: West of Bathurst, east of Runnymede, and south of St. Clair West. My rates have increased by $3.00 as of October 2024.

**Please make plans to drop off keys to me in the time leading up to visiting your pet, or provide the keys/entry instructions when we have our first meet and greet. My fees incorporate the time spent during the meet and greet, but they do not include extra trips to your home.

Chelsea has taken absolutely wonderful care of my girls while I have been away, writing me the most charming updates and report cards for each visit. She took the time to get to know each cat's personality and gave them lots of individual attention. It didn't take her long to become friends with each cat which I found very heart warming. I would highly recommend Chelsea to anyone looking for a very reliable and caring cat sitter.
