I am a 50 year old woman, live in Gatineau, and a retired federal public servant. I had cats and dogs my whole life, and with my latest one passing away, I decided to sell my house and move into a small condo for a simpler way of life. With this new stage of my life and being a huge animal lover, I’ve decided that instead of adopting other animals, I would love and care other folk’s animals. Being an avid jogger/walker, I can take any size dog on a walk and ensure they get all their senses met (walk, run, smell the grass, look around, and stop as often as they need for relieve themselves comfortably). I am also very patient for all types of shy and reclusive cats where I am quite successful to get them out of their shell and gain their trust, to ensure they get social interactions and eat. Having had adopted special needs cats and dogs, I am accustomed to administer the intake of pills, injections, and various health issues such as arthritis, anxious, skin allergies, blindness, deafness. I just love them all, small, big, funny, awkward, energetic, shy, silly, playful! We could certainly meet or discuss prior to see if I am the right fit for your furry family member! Having been a cat and dog owner for the past 30 years, I had many cats at once with one dog (mixed german sheppard and border collie). I also volunteered for many years at the Gatineau SPCA and the Human Society International. Known in my circle of friends, family, and neighbors as an animal lover and diligent to ensure their safety and well-being, I am the 'go to for pet sitting services', which I have been doing this on a volunteer base (free of charge) for a very long time. I am very accustomed and comfortable dealing with all types of medical needs such as cuts, ticks, lethargy/vomiting, pet who hide and don't want to eat when their owners are away, injections, matted fur, nail clipping. I love to send videos on how things are going and your pet is coping.

I am an energetic and down-to-earth person in my early 20s, who has three years of experience living alone. I am aware that I may not be able to financially support my own group of animals, but I have a lot of love for furry friends and would love to take care of yours! I don’t have professional experience with animals by title, however for my whole life we have had 1-2 dogs, 2 cats, multiple fish, guinea pigs, and hamsters.

Retired professional, looking to supplement pension and maintain a schedule that includes exercise. I am a calm presence for cats and dogs, allowing them to seek me out. For dogs, I will only work with leash-trained, and properly socialized dogs. For cats, I have done bottle-feeding of newborns - should that be of need, I would be willing to take the kittens overnight until they're weaned.

I've grown up with them and they've always been a big part of my life, this love for animals has led me to take up pet sitting besides my friends and family, also for other lovely pet owners in our community. I take great joy in ensuring that your pets are safe, happy, and loved when you're away. I specialize in not just drop-in visits, feed and play but also, dog walking and house sitting.
