What We Provide 
As professional pet sitters in Winnipeg, we believe that great pets deserve great care. We provide full-service care for all pets, large and small, and of all ages. We offer guaranteed reliability with a tailored and personalized plan. Each visit is scheduled so that we can provide unhurried attention for your pets, and services are available seven days a week to the Winnipeg area.  All services are contractually arranged. So when you need a cat sitter, a dog sitter, care for other pets or a house sitter, give us a call.

Most pet owners miss their four legged companions when they are away, and we email updates on how they are doing. We will also email a photo or short video clip of your pets when you need that extra bit.

"I am writing to thank you for the great job that Mick did looking after our home while we were away recently between July 23 and 26. Our plants looked great, Figaro looked happy and I think Mick even cleaned the birdbath."   L.W. client of Kitty Visits

Pet Sitting - Our goal is to ensure your pet's safety and well being is maintained while at home whether for a few hours or an extended period. This service is for dogs, cats, birds and other small animals.  It includes visits once, twice or more times per day in your home to feed, water, exercise, play, pamper and provide plenty of one-on-one attention for your pets.  We can be there to provide medical assistance when you cannot be there.  We will provide extra care and assistance for the older pet, and give extra visits and attention to puppies.  Each pet will receive a head-to-tail check to ensure they are doing well.  For extended pet sitting services, we will also wash out litter boxes and replace the litter, put out the garbage, and perform general household duties as needed so that your pets will truly be comfortable at home.  

Fido's Fitness - This very popular service provides your pet with an opportunity to stretch their legs with a walk around your neighbourhood or park.  Let us give your pet a private mid-day, evening or a break at another time of the day. When we pull up in front of your home, the happy face looking out the window is full of anticipation for their exercise break.  They receive a one-on-one 20 minute session of mental and physical exercise with breaks to stop and sniff, combined with intervals at a faster pace to get the heart rate up and when done, they are happy, content and refreshed. If the weather is very warm, for the safety of your pet, we will shorten the walk. We monitor for signs of heat exhaustion.  Note: We adjust the exercise to the age and health of the pet.  

Dog Training and Walk & Train - We work with you and your dog on Pet Dog Manners, behavior modification of problem behaviors and walking politely on leash.

Geriatric Pet Care - Older pets may require extra assistance and we provide special care for them. We understand that they may not see or hear well and we accommodate their many needs. They may enjoy some Tellington Touch, Therapeutic Touch and some Reiki. Geriatric care is a part of the Pet Sitting Service.

House Checks - We will work with you on finding the best solution to your house sitting needs for when you are away for a few days or for an extended period of time.   Basic to this service is to give your home the lived-in look.  We will open/close drapes, alter the lights, bring in the mail/newspapers, water plants, check that the furnace or air conditioner is running, sweep the steps & sidewalk in the winter **, etc.  The house-check service is always included free with the pet services, however if you need this only, we would be pleased to provide it.  Where no pets are involved, we will check your house every second day or whatever time interval suits you.  For longer absences we will forward mail, pay bills, arrange for and supervise workers in your home, and various other home management tasks.  We will also stay in contact with you by email or phone to keep you updated.  

Puppy Care - Your new puppy will need extra care in the early months.  We will work with you in making this transition as smooth as possible. We assist with the housebreaking and the extra feedings that are required during this time. By having us assist, you won't need to put off adding a puppy to your family because of work schedules.
 
                                                                              
                                      

Pet Taxi
-
Your pet need not miss an appointment to the vet or groomer.  We will pick up your pet, wait for them at the appointment and then return them home.  This service is for pets only. This service is for clients of pet sitting and dog walking services only.

Assistance with Pets - This service is for those who are recovering from surgery, are elderly, have a bad back, are pregnant, or for any other reason are unable to provide care for your pets. We will exercise pets, clean litter boxes, pick up supplies, and do those things that you are unable to do. We've been helping seniors with their pets for years.

Play in the Park - We take your dog to an off-leash park for the ultimate adventure. With two handlers to monitor safety, we ensure your pet receives the exercise and socialization that they need. This adventure is for dogs that enjoy the company of other dogs and humans. We test your dog to determine suitability prior to including them. Aggressive dogs are not suitable for group activities.

Once or twice a week is fine for most dogs for this level of activity.

Dogs must have a current City of Winnipeg license and must have their vaccinations up to date. Dogs should also know some basic obedience, especially the recall.

Special Deliveries - Should your pets need more pet food or other supplies, arrangements can be made to pick up and deliver to your home. 

 

* Our business is to ensure your pets are safe and comfortable in their own familiar environment.  

** Our focus is on pets and pet-related services
, and we will sweep the steps and sidewalk, however lawn care and snow removal is best left to those who specialize in those services.  They provide prompt service when needed, and as they specialize in that area, they have their own equipment.  Your equipment is never used!  Their prices are reasonable and they do an impressive job.
