About: We're in the process of opening a kennel on our 27 acre homestead, until then, we're here on Rover! Let us give your pets an enriching experience while you're away, and you peace of mind that they are in not one but two sets of good hands. Our dog Styx loves all pets, big and small, but we also have experience and infrastructure for some personal space if your pet takes a little longer to warm up or has special needs. We are currently building a kennel on our wooded retreat, and in the meantime, our home is open! We are home full-time and spend our days outside tending to the property, bringing your pets along, with lots of water and indoor breaks. We have a fenced yard and the house is able to be segmented off depending on the needs (puppy pen, cat area with dogs, cat area dog free, day crated, whatever your comfort is.
About: I’ve grown up around animals my whole life and have experience caring for pets of all ages, from young puppies to senior animals. I’ve owned and cared for dogs, bunnies, chickens, and geese, so I’m comfortable with different personalities and needs. I’ve also worked alongside dog trainers with my own dogs, which has helped me learn more about handling, behaviour, and building trust with animals. I’m patient, reliable, and genuinely enjoy spending time with pets and making sure they feel safe and comfortable. Pet care fits really naturally into my routine since I genuinely enjoy being around animals. I work part-time at Roots, so I have plenty of time throughout the week for walks, check-ins, playtime, feeding, or overnight care. I’m reliable with routines and happy to work around your pet’s schedule to keep them comfortable and cared for. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I do my best to keep their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I make sure they’re fed on schedule, get plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, and any other care they’re used to. I’m respectful of your home, reliable, and focused on making your pets feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. I also make sure to keep owners updated with messages and photos so you know your pets are doing well.
“Vitoria was amazing with our two dogs, she kept us informed and we were so happy with her taking them for walks. We will definitely be reaching out again to Vitoria for dog sitting and walking!”
“Cadence did an awesome job of checking up on my cats while I was away! She sent pictures of her visits and spent lots of time playing with them! Highly recommend her for her sitting services!”
“Jenna was amazing with our two Frenchies! We got regular updates and photos, and could tell they were so well loved while we were away. Came home to happy, relaxed pups — highly recommend!”
“Left our kitty in Jacqueline’s care for nearly two weeks; she’s an excellent communicator, with daily specific updates and photos. Would rebook and recommend her anytime.”
About: Although I’m new to professional pet sitting, I bring something just as valuable: genuine love, patience, and dedication to animals. Friends and neighbors have always trusted me with their pets, because they know I treat every furry (or feathered!) friend as if they were my own. I work from home most days, which allows me to provide consistent attention and flexibility for feeding, walks, and companionship. On the three days I commute to the office, I am still available before and after work, while weekends are fully open. This schedule ensures I can reliably meet the needs of pets and give them the care they deserve. I’m meticulous about safety and will keep a close eye on your furry family member at all times. Your pet’s happiness and safety are my top priorities. Whether it’s daily walks, feeding, or just keeping them company, I’ll make sure they feel loved while you’re away.
“We are very satisfied with Kaela: immediate response time, excellent attention to detail, and great care and love to our kitty. It's reassuring to know someone in the neighborhood who will provide the best care to our pet. Thank you, Kaela!”
About: I've been a cat lover and owner for over 20 years. I love having dogs in our home, playing and taking walks in our local neighborhood. I work from home full time and would love extra company. I'm looking to gain more hands on experience with a variety of dogs and cats. I have a fenced yard with 2 friendly cats. A large house that is warm and loving. Live close to parks for walks and exploring.
About: Dogs, cats, rabbits … I’ve cared for a variety of animals since I was young child. Mom of two kids who loves cuddles and going for walks. I have always had dogs and pets in my home, currently mom to two kids and one 11 year old cattle dog (think Bluey). Experience with puppies also! I am certified in first aid and CPR for your pets and have experience giving oral medication. Let me know if you have certain expectations for updates or pictures you would like to receive as I want to do whatever I can to help ease your mind while caring for your pet. I can help give your pet social interactions, walking for exercise or just extra cuddles while you're away. My schedule is flexible, if something you need isn’t listed (or availability) please message me as I can usually work something out. Daytime is my most available. As a mom of two kids, I always ensure safety is top priority for everyone. I will only walk animals on a leash to be safe and always check for ticks after coming back from walks. I have experience with medication for animals and CPR for animals.
“Christie was awesome! Her communication is great, she is very responsive to messages and followed our instructions for our cat’s care to a T. She gave us regular updates on our cat and was available to answer questions and give updates on him as requested. I would definitely book with her again!”
“Bronya was amazing! She took the best care of our two senior cats (who both have medical conditions). She sent updates every visit including pictures and kept us informed if anything came up and asked questions as needed. I will 100% work with Bronya again! As an RVT, I’m not only impressed, I’m grateful for someone who takes such pride in caring for animals. She even befriended our grumpy cat that normally isn’t interested in being friends. Thank you Bronya!”
About: Ive been working with animals ever since I was a little kid. Grew up working with horses and having multiple animals at home! Your pets will be loved and taken well care of till you get back! Will provide updates and photos regularly to reassure you that your pet(s) are being loved and cared for while you are away from home! I’m currently working part-time in Barrhaven. My shifts are on Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday’s from 7:00am-3:00pm. I am allotted an hour lunch break, so depending on the distance your house is away from my work, I would be more than happy to return to your home and provide any needed potty breaks! I am happy to spend as much time with your animals as you want! Whatever you need done for them, will get done: walks, poop and scoop, cuddles, etc!
About: Hi! I’m Adrienne. Caring for animals has always been something I genuinely enjoy, whether that’s going for long walks, providing companionship, or making sure they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. I currently own two amazing dogs - a 9-year-old German Shepherd and a 4-year-old Alaskan Malamute mix - so I’m very familiar with caring for large, active breeds and understanding that every dog has their own unique personality and needs. I’m an active, reliable, and organized person who loves spending time outdoors. Whether your dog enjoys leisurely neighbourhood strolls, longer walks on local trails, or simply having someone to keep them company, I’d be happy to help. I have experience with dog walking, pet sitting, and caring for both dogs and cats, and I always treat every pet as if they were my own. My goal is to give you peace of mind while providing your pets with the love, attention, and care they deserve. I can’t wait to meet you and your furry family members! I work for myself in Almonte so my schedule can (sometimes) be flexible! I work Tuesday - Saturday primarily and my days off are Sundays & Mondays. Fenced yard, non fenced yard, near water, crate trained, not crate trained, dog parks, walking in group, walking alone….. I’m confident in whatever makes your pet the most comfortable and happy.
About: I've been around animals from a very young age. I've always loved spending time with them and taking care of them. People who know me have said that my calm nature attracts all the animals. I've done pet sitting for free for all my friends and families just for the love of it. I have experience in training puppies, taking care of senior pets and pets with high needs in need of accomodations. I have more experience with dog sitting, and at least 5 years of cat sitting and some rat sitting as well. I love nothing more than to spend time with your fur babies. I'm an advocate for mandatory daily playtime for all pets. I have a flexible work schedule that allows me to work from home and choose my hours. This allows me to prioritize my time based on needs of your pets. I will want to know more about your dogs daily routine, schedule, favorite play, comfort levels and personalities and I will care for them accordingly
About: I’ve been house and pet-sitting since I was 16. Always making sure my friends and family can step away with zero stress and their fur babies are the star of the show! I’ve taken care of small to medium sized mostly, but large dogs a few times. No matter where I go, pets gravitate towards me! My schedule is very flexible and I have great knowledge of the city with reliable transportation. I play sports in the evening a few days a week but nothing that can’t be worked around I will ensure I study the area my clients live in and discuss the areas and routines your pets are accustomed to. Also, the type words they respond to. I always want to ensure they will feel safe and comfortable.
About: Long before petsitting became a commoditized business, Debbie Ozarko was on the Ottawa scene bringing joy to the lives of dogs and their people with her dog walking service, "We Take the Dogs Out" in 2000. This eventually morphed into, "It’s a Ruff Life Doggie Daycare" which thrived until her move to the British Columbia coast in 2013. Her love for such beautiful intimacy with animals has only deepened over time, and with her return to the Ottawa area she is eager to offer her exceptional services once again. Debbie is also a long-time volunteer with the Rideau Valley Wildlife Sanctuary and the IFAW Northern Dogs Project. Animals truly are her life. Debbie brings it back to what is most meaningful for all: respect, integrity and generosity of spirit—for you, and for your furry, fuzzy and feathered animal companions. Animals are my life! It doesn't matter if they are residents are not, they are all treated with love, kindness, respect, and compassion. My schedule is constructed around their needs first. I have access to several quiet areas where field, forest and streams abound for off-leash romps. If dogs are better with on-leash walks, I'm happy to take them to green spaces where they have access to lots of sniffing to satiate that deep primal canine need. I also provide healthy, grain-free treats...just because. Of course, I offer only these with your approval beforehand.
“Megan was very good... On time and communicated about happiness (or displeasure) of our cat when we went away for a week. The princess wasn't mad as usual when we returned - so she Megan done good”

Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone.
