Cameron M.

Hey there, I’m Cameron! Owner of YK Sitter and our sister company, Cheeky Chops Pet Salon. 

 

I am the proud pet mom to Marji, Kitty and Nikolais. I love being their mom and I love the service we offer to busy Yellowknife pet parents. I am one of them!

Whenever I need a helping hand getting the dogs daily exercise or when my partner and I are on the road we want the best for our fur kids. It is important to me that my standards of care are given and I trust our YKS team with their happiness, health and always keeping me updated with personal messages and photos. Communication is at the heart of the pet care service I strive for. I always want my fur kids to have trusting and reliable care and I want YOURS to have the same. The help and benefits we offer to our fur and human clients, and seeing the happy visit reports of pets in Yellowknife every day (all day) is what keeps me living my dream!

Schedule & Client Care Manager

Hi!! My name is Libby, I’ve been working with the YK Sitter family as your Scheduling & Client Care Manager. Some of you I’ve messaged with already in our pet sitting software! A little bit about me: I lived in Norman Wells for 10 years, started a family, built a home. Then life took us to Yellowknife for another 3 years. We ended up in Ontario, my home province, however I still feel a fondness for my years in the North. Now I’m a retired gal living in Prince Edward County with my husband and “Simon” my Miniature Wire Haired Dachshund!! I’m feeling very fortunate to be a member of the YK Sitter team and I look forward to messaging with you!!

Pet Sitter & Overnighter

I'm so excited to have joined the YK Sitter team! I enjoy and cherish each and all of our clients very different personalities. I've been an animal lover since childhood and they have always been a big part of my family and life! I love the company of animals and forming that special bond with them. Working with animals is so rewarding and couldn't make my days any better! I can't wait to meet and work with you and your fur babies.

Pet Sitter

I have a cockapoo and cavachon at home and enjoy their company immensely.  I travel for work and know that I want them in a safe place with the best of care when I am away.  I enjoy meeting and caring for dogs and pets like they are part of my own family.  I moved up North in 2011 and lived above the arctic circle in the Beaufort-Delta as well as living in Fort Simpson for 7 years.  I moved to Yellowknife in January 2019. I love to bundle up on a winter day and go for a walk.  A snowy day is always a good day for a walk.

Overnight Pet Sitter

Hi! My name is Gi, I was born and raised in Yellowknife. I am from a family of 11 and I'm an aunty to 16 nieces and nephews and great aunty to 1. I have a soft spot for that small town vibe, and love the community. I joined the YK Sitter team and its been great! I also work at a pet salon and am surrounded by dogs daily and I absolutely love it! There have always been animals around me growing up and my first job was at a veterinarian clinic. Animals are so intelligent and give unconditional love and I'm happy to give back to them and give my love and care. I look forward to getting to know you and your pets!
