“Roma absolutely loves Doris! Very reliable sitter and always on time, if she needs to push the walk to a later time (only been half an hour for me) she’ll let you know before you book! We love Doris and have rebooked multiple times. I recommend Doris to everyone! Thank you for caring and loving Roma like your own!”

About: I have hands on experience with daily dog walks and drop in visits, including feeding, potty breaks, playtime, and leash walks. I'm comfortable following specific routines and instructions and always make sure pets feel calm and cared for during each visit. I can also send updates and photos so you can feel confident while you're away. I work about 25-30 hours at a spa. I have Sunday and Monday's off, half of Saturdays and can always do before or after work. During drop in visits, I focus on safety, routine and comfort. I provide feeding, fresh water, potty breaks, playtime or walks, and make sure pets feel calm and cared for.
About: Shared my life with dogs and cats for 20 years. I also volunteer at the humane society where I have received training on proper ways to interact with animals. I currently work from home and have a lot of flexibility in my schedule for taking care of animals. My availability is open during the weekends as well. I currently live in an apartment unit. I always insure I create a positive cozy environment for pets and include lots of play and potty time.
About: I began taking care of dogs at 12 years old, starting with my first puppy. I have participated in various puppy classes to support my family dogs as a child, and now as an adult I continue to take part in this learning. I am enrolled with my newest pup now to support his learning, and mine! In my experience over the years with dogs, I have built confidence in taking care of the spectrum of ages from puppies and senior dogs. I am happy to move at a faster pace with more intensive play or stroll along - whatever the pup/dog needs - I am there to meet their needs. ** NEW to Rover - lower fee, while I get to know you! I have flexibility in my schedule to support your dogs needs. Communication is important to me, so should my schedule shift my availability will be updated to ensure you are updated. Additionally, if I make a commitment you and your furry friend, you can be assured that this commitment is a priority to me! It is important that I hear from you about what your dog needs. I am happy to spend time in your backyard letting your pup sniff around or play fetch. I also am keen to get your dog out of the house and moving to walk on routes they are comfortable with or explore new spaces.
About: Hi there! I am a fun, outgoing, friendly, dog lover! I can’t wait to meet you and your furry ones! Pet care has become my favorite thing to do. Sadly, I don’t have any pet's but that gives me the opportunity to show your pet soo much more love! I love to care for all kinds of pets and their owners. I am willing to drop everything to ensure your peace of mind when you need me. I have a slight preference for older doggies but all animals of all ages and breeds receive the same care from me. I make sure your pets are brushed and clean and keep up with home care. That includes your plant babies so make sure you point them out during meet and greets! I follow Cesar’s Way! Feel free to reach out if you have any questions! I make my clients and their pups my priority. I make sure that nothing else is planned for my day other than taking care your pets. I am rarely turn down a request! I absolutely love caring for pets in the comfort of their own homes! It really helps them feel relaxed and happy in their own space. You can trust that I will treat your home with the utmost respect and care. Many clients have welcomed me into their homes while they were away, and I promise you’ll feel safe and comfortable with me too. I’m a friendly, tidy person who prioritizes the safety of your pets and home. My own home is a warm and organized environment, and I make sure it's a safe place for anyone who visits (though I’m currently not able to accept pets in my home). I always take my time to get to know new spaces. During our meet and greet, I’ll go over a handy checklist of questions to make sure I have everything covered. If anything comes up, I won’t hesitate to bring it up or send you a message. I love to get a detailed picture of a “day in the life” of your pets so I can stick closely to their routine. Your security is super important to me, so I’ll keep all your details private and ensure no one enters your home without prior discussion—except, of course, for the occasional food delivery! 😄
“Michelle has walked my dog Marley a few times and I will definitely be using her again in the near future! She was great with Marley, very pleasant to deal with, reliable and responds to messages very quickly. Thanks Michelle!”

“Guy is great with my dog! Always makes sure he is well walked, and even puts in a little extra time :) Guys availability is super flexible which works well for anyone with variable schedules.”

About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life and honestly can’t imagine it any other way. I’ve been dog sitting for friends and family since high school, and I love getting to know each dog’s personality. I also worked on a dairy farm for 10 years, where we always had dogs around (including five that hung out with us in the parlour!), so I’m super comfortable with animals. Taking care of pets doesn’t feel like work to me, it’s something I genuinely enjoy. I’m currently a student at Georgian College and have a very flexible schedule that allows me to accommodate pet care throughout the week. Tuesdays are my only fully busy day, but I have availability at various times on all other days. I’m especially available during evenings and weekends, making it easy to fit walks, drop-ins, or pet sitting into my routine. I provide a safe, comfortable, and welcoming environment whether I’m caring for pets in my home or a client’s home. At my home, I have a fully fenced-in backyard for secure outdoor time, as well as plenty of indoor space for dogs to relax. I also have a friendly Labrador who enjoys the company of other dogs, but I always make sure introductions are done slowly and safely. If a dog prefers their own space, I have a spare room where they can relax privately. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always follow their routine closely to keep things consistent and stress-free. I prioritize safety, supervision, and lots of attention to make sure each pet feels comfortable and well cared for.
About: I have always had a love for dogs and that followed me into adulthood where I've spent the last five years working in rescue. Within the last few years, I've pursued my passion of co-founding and becoming the director of a local dog rescue in the GTA (MUTTS Dog Rescue) and embarked on various trips to the US and across Canada to help save and rehome dogs in need. I've fostered 10 dogs (and counting) from 5 weeks old and up, fostered four baby kittens, helped care for three family dogs ranging from puppies to seniors, dog sat a number of times, and currently have two rescue dogs (a husky/lab/shep x and a meximutt) and three cats. Working in rescue has helped me gain a deeper understanding of a dog's mannerisms and behaviours which allows me to advocate for them in the way they deserve. I work from home full-time which allows me more than enough time and flexibility to provide all the things needed to help you and your pets out! With over 25 years of experience under my belt, I have the confidence and knowledge to properly care for your pet whether that be through crating, feeding, walking and/or providing medication. A double leash will be beneficial should the dog be a flight risk and a loose lead walk will be given with proper corrections if needed. My main priority is the safety of your dog. Pet care is a part of my every day life with 2 dogs and 3 cats. I will always make time for my pets and in turn make time for yours! Our pets receive the utmost of care. We have a large fenced yard, multiple crates in the home to provide safety and security, gates in the home to ensure dogs don’t get into anything they shouldn’t, toys are away to manage proper play.
About: I've been working with dogs for 12 years now. I've done walks and daycare/boarding. I'm experienced with dogs of all sizes and ages. I'm canine first aid certified, energetic and looking forward to meeting your pups. I'm comfortable administering medications whether it be in pill or injection form. I'm happy to accommodate all needs a dog may have. I perform daily wellness checks on dogs to ensure any scrapes, lumps or bumps are documented. I like to stay active and fit, I walk and average of 70km a week and love taking my dog out walking in the bush. I look forward to having other dogs join us as well. I'm also skilled at nail trims and bathing and brushing out dogs so I'd be happy to help with that as well.

About: I understand that dogs are our "Best Friends" but I also fully understand and believe that dogs become part of our family and friend circle. We consider them a part of our life...but to dogs we are their everything...they live solely for us and depend solely on us for life. We should always honor and trust that bond . They are truly magnificent creatures and and deserve to be loved. I would take care of your furry family member as I would my own. I have an amazing back yard which is completely fenced my home is pet friendly and I would walk your dog to his or hers favourite park and we will laugh and have fun and meet new friends along the way. Furlove always

If you're looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter or boarder, with lots of experience, than I'm your girl. :)
About: I’ve taken care of my cat Miss Rita Marie for 5 years now since I adopted her in 2020. She had anxiety challenges but we were able to work through them by building trust and a unique bond between the two of us. When I am not working you can find me spending time with my cat Rita, whether that’s enjoying a cat nap or playing with her favourite toys. My cat Rita is an indoor cat but I can appreciate if you needed your cat to spend outdoor time with nature! I have experience with that with former family cats. I also have some experience looking after dogs. That’s Charlie in the photo. We had a great time playing ball together.
