From a young age I always remember having pets of some sort. I have experience with many types of animals; dogs, cats, snakes, guinea pigs, chinchillas, birds, even squirrels. I have taken care of many animals, big and small, young and old. I have a work from home job that is very easy going and flexible, I can even work from my phone, so I have a lot of availability to multi task. I can stay with your pet for constant care or keep up with a regular routine, all depends on your needs. For in my home, I have a decent sized fenced in yard and a two storey home. We have two dogs and a cat of our own, separation is possible if needed. Otherwise, pets have free range, can go on furniture and beds if they want unless you have that rule yourself. I provide lots of play time and walks, mild training and grooming possible, please discuss beforehand. I'm good with minor behavior issues, discussions beforehand of course. In your home, I will keep up with their regular routine as best as I can and treat your home like it was my own. Your place will be left as I found it if not better and your fur family will have the best care. I can walk them around your neighborhood. Off leash not possible, even for the most well behaved due to liability. Let me know your favourite walks in your area. I have a ton of toys due to my own dog being super spoiled, so we share those with our guests of course. I even have special ones that are "indestructible" for those aggressive chewers. Time will be spent cuddling and playing, going on walks around the neighborhood which usually passes by some parks. Walks are usually at least 45mins or more unless otherwise requested, less or more time. Dogs can play in the backyard that is fully fenced as well, they can be let out as much as they need. Cats can have free range of the home, they won't be let outside. I have a large kitty litter and will be getting a second one as well. You can also bring your own supplies. All pets, no matter the kind will get the love, attention and care they need while your away. Does your pet have any behavioral issues? Are they special needs? Do they take any medication? Do they get along with other dogs/cats? Any allergies or food you would rather they not eat? Any other quirks or personality details I should know? Are they fully vaccinated? Include as much information as possible so that I can provide the care your loved one needs and deserves. I have many years of personal experience caring for a multitude of animals but only about a years experience doing paid pet sitting.

I am a dog lover who grew up owning dogs basically all my life. I have experience with feeding and grooming. Prior to moving to Canada I owned 3 dogs in Nigeria, they have been left in the trustworthy care of my parents. I have a big family (extended in the US) who also enjoy having dogs around in their homes and i share in the caretaking responsibilities whenever I find myself in their homes. I really enjoy playing with dogs because this is how i was brought up. Feeding, training, playing, and walking all come naturally when you genuinely love animals and this is something I have found myself doing for as long as i remember.

I am Jericca Gabia the eldest between me and my brother. I always been independent for my mother is an Overseas Filipino Worker. I was trained to do all things by myself and I always learn by experience. My interests are going on a hike, walking on a trail and dogs. I love dogs and cats but I am more of a dog person. They are very loyal to their owner having the same personality as me. Not only that, the more i like taking good care of dogs, the more i like taking good care of kids they are just too cute and adorable and I really like the challenge taking good care of them. Since I was a child I already have a pet to keep me company. I am a fur mom of a cat and a dog for 4 years. I treated my pets as my own child. I was hands on even the slightest change of their mood like them having no energy to play and appetite to eat makes me worry so I immediately take them to the vet. I can say I spoiled my fur babies a lot because they are my life and happiness. I am an animal lover ever since.
