“Katrina was so wonderful with our puppy Oggie we got lots of photos and updates through the day and came back to a very happy puppy. I would definitely recommend Katrina and would happily book them again!”
About: Dog owner of 13 years. Have offered dog sitting services for dogs from one years old to senior. My dog has recently passed away and I am looking to have some dog energy in my life. I look forward and am happy to have a visitor join me at my house or go for a walk at one of the local trails. I currently work from home Monday to Friday. I am available for dog walking early morning or afternoons as well as weekends. If joining in my home, your pet would not be alone and could have frequent outside time in our fenced yard. I have a fenced yard and a dog friendly home. Dogs are welcome and safe in any room. I live in a walk friendly neighborhood close to trails.
“10/10! Would definitely recommend & plan to repeat! Joseph & Tina took Zano into their home and showed him so much love & care. It was very evident on pick up that he was confortable and happy with them. They have a safe & fabulous set up with a large, fenced yard. Zano had ample outside time & came home tired. Joe & Tina were excellent! We felt well taken care of from their communication prior to drop off, during Zano's stay & at pick up. They went above & beyond expectations showing the highest regard for ours & Zano's needs, wishes & house rules. They were so considerate, friendly & respectful - I truly have no constructive feedback whatsoever & would 100% recommend.”
About: I ended up with a rescue 9 month old pup that was not potty or crate trained and had great separation anxiety issues. And this, my journey began as a pac leader that had to win the trust of my dog . In the past my family always had dogs as well . I work part time from home and get to choose my own hours. I have lots of time and energy for working with your dog I have a dog and a cat and a fenced yard . I have a crate as well, as well as puppy proofed house with no cords or socks lying around. I have chew toys galore to challenge your dog I am home most days and will be taking your dog to run errands with me if I leave in order to socialize the doggy unless otherwise stated I care for the pet like it is my own: I feed them, train them, play with them, snuggle with them. I give them baths if needed, and groom them daily if the dog likes being combed.
“Cassie and her boys were amazing with my Yorkie. I was away 4 days and they sent me lots of photos and a video. I was so comfortable leaving Toby with them. He even ate while I was away so he was also comfortable!! Im so glad to have found them and will definitely reach out to them first should I ever need dog sitting. 🐾❤️”
“Jackie took in our pooch for 4 days in May & I’m pretty sure our dog didn’t want to come home! Tonnes of play time with his new best friend, videos and photos throughout the day to remind us how we are not nearly as good a dog owner as we had previously thought. Tig had great off leash walks every morning (which we previously said was OK with us). Would definitely use Jackie again & highly recommended her to anyone in need of a break from their furry little friends!”
“Gail had our boy for 6 days and he was VERY well taken care of! We can tell he had a blast with her and her family, and we will definitely be utilizing her services again in the future!!!”
“Leesa was absolutely amazing with our golden retriever, Moose! From the moment we met her, it was clear she genuinely loves dogs and takes great pride in caring for them. She kept us updated with photos and messages, which gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. Moose came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. It’s obvious he received lots of attention, exercise, and affection during his stay. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and reliable to look after your dog, I can’t recommend Leesa highly enough.”
“Lisa was truly amazing. She was kind, welcoming , so attentive to my little ones and just an overall joy to interact with. She kept me well updated with photos and videos and she did so shortly after drop off. I’m often very nervous leaving or trusting my dogs with anyone but she was definitely the best choice I could ever make!”
“Brianne was wonderful taking care of my puppy for three nights. She gave updates everyday and was able to spend one on one time with her everyday. It was Harleys first time away from me and she had a great experience! I don’t hesitate to recommend Brianne for anyone’s fur babies ❤️”
“Teresa, treated Coltrane like part of the family. She kept us updated with pictures of their hikes, dog play and big sleeps. Coltrane returned to us happy and settled. She put our hearts at ease.”
“Vanessa was absolutely amazing! From the start, she was great to communicate with - responsive, friendly, and clearly experienced. She provided updates while I was away, which made me feel completely at ease about being out of the province. Knowing that my dog Maya was in such good hands made all the difference. Maya had the best time - she even got to go to work with Vanessa, which she loved (she’s all about the attention!). I could tell she was being cared for and spoiled just like she would be at home. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with Vanessa again. Highly recommend!”
About: Hello, I have plenty of experience with dogs and cats as I grew up with them. I currently do not have any pets, but I do have 3 kids 50% of the time! I live in a townhouse, but I am right now to a park. I only work 4 hours a day, and I live right next to my work so I am able to go home on my break to walk them. I am able to petsit weekends and holidays! I work full-time during the week. I could do during the week as well but I work full days. I live in a townhome, we are always on walks and on leash. I live next to a park as well for them to play.
“Tamara did an excellent job of taking care of my dog. My dog is aggressive towards other dogs which can be challenging. Tamara had no problems with managing him and I am really grateful. I would definitely recommend Tamara and I know my dog would be very happy to be in her care again.”

“I just wanted to say a heartfelt thank you for taking such wonderful care of my cats while I was away. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing they were in such attentive and caring hands. The daily photos and updates truly meant a lot to me—they helped me relax and feel connected even from a distance. I could tell they were comfortable and well looked after, which says everything. I really appreciate the time and care you put into each visit, and I’m so grateful to have found someone so reliable and kind. Thank you again—I would absolutely love to have you care for them in the future. Warmly, Amanda Aaron Carmela & Katsumi 😺”
“Great experience with Felix and Rachel, such a personalized approach! Came back to happy, fed and clean fur babies. Rachel has been very responsive and explained all the details. Thank you!!”
“Morgan went above and beyond our expectations. She is a genuine animal lover and it is so evident. We have two demanding male cats and a senior female cat who has special needs. We came home to happy and well fed kitties - not to mention a very clean house. Morgan stayed in contact with us while we were away with lots of photos. Any concerns we had were non-existent as we realized what a responsible and caring person Morgan is. Would not hesitate to recommend her and we will definitely ask her again to pet sit.”
About: I am comfortable in any place and I believe cats can be too with the right amount of time. All cats like to relax or spend time sleeping during the day when I have time to clean for them.
“I was so reluctant to use Rover but then I found Shelly! Now I’m reluctant to leave this review because I don’t want her to get too busy and not be available but she deserves a glowing reference from me. Shelly, is absolutely the best and I feel so blessed to have found her…she is experienced with all their meds, loving and reliable. I highly recommend her as a caregiver. A+++ (and I don’t leave this review lightly….I am very particular when it comes to my babies )”

About: What sets me apart as a pet sitter is my deep understanding of animal behavior and my ability to tailor care to each pet’s unique needs. I have experience with everything from training energetic puppies to providing gentle, attentive care for senior pets who need extra patience and comfort. I’m skilled in administering medication, handling special dietary needs, and recognizing signs of stress or illness early on. I am available for boarding on weekdays, weekends and holidays. I will have plenty of time to play with your pup! Sometimes I work one-two days a week. In my home, I create a safe, comfortable, and engaging environment for pets. I provide plenty of exercise, playtime, and enrichment activities tailored to their needs. Whether it’s daily walks, interactive toys, or a cozy spot to relax, I make sure they feel at home. I maintain a clean space, follow their feeding and medication schedules, and ensure they receive plenty of attention and affection.
“Tamara is quick to respond, friendly, sent photos of my pup and gave me some time to surprise my husband with a helicopter ride on our honeymoon trip without having to worry about Marshall.”
About: Hello, my name is Teresa and I'm dog walker who is Walks and Wags Certified with Pet First Aid. I've also taken International Academy of Canine Trainers Certified Professional Dog Walker program. I'm an animal lover and have had pets all of my life. I especially love dogs of all shapes and sizes and am looking forward to taking care of your dog either as a dog walker or just for home visits to play and make sure that he/she is fine while you are at work. I'm happy to visit both young puppers and more senior doggos - as we all know your dog is the 'best dog ever' and I'm happy to treat your dog like my own! Looking forward to meeting you and your pet! I work remotely so am happy to have your dog as company to my own two fur babies! My yard is fenced so there is no fear for them to run in our backyard. I allow pets on furniture but do make sure that their paws are clean and that they do not rough house in the house. As I am working at home I can monitor them as well.
About: I love dogs big or small. I'll walk them all. I am passionate about all animals and will take care of, and play with, your pooch. I have always had dogs in my life. Farm dogs, mostly indoor dogs, big, small, energetic, senior. I go for daily, long walks with our current dog and would love some companions to come along! I am super flexible and can care for your pet weekdays during the morning, afternoon, or evening, and even have some availability during the weekends. I have a fenced backyard and a sweet red heeler x mini aussie shep who would love to play! I am very compassionate with animals and put a lot of care and attention into their well being.
About: We had a beautiful Golden Retriever 2013-2025 who went everywhere with me and was never left alone. I loved being with him, caring for him and other friends pets, walking, brushing, veterinary drop offs and collections as well as caring for elderly dogs too. I love all dogs. Will be with the dogs all day in my home and we have beautiful trails right at our doorstep for quick walks or longer hikes. Happy to be slower if dogs are older or small or longer if they have lots of energy. I work from home so pets would never be left alone, I have set up my work to fit in with caring for our own pet as a priority. Have looked after our own dog and walked 4-5 times daily with shorter potty breaks and longer excercise trips for 12 years. I have no fenced yard but have a provincial park and walking trails directly at my door so walking is never a problem. My own golden retriever will go outside for a variety of mini walks and a longer walk daily or we can take the car to other parks if requested.

“I am so grateful Felix & Rachel helped me out last minute when I was stuck for a dog walker! They showed up when I needed and walked my Louie, took photos and I would absolutely use them again- thanks so much guys!”
About: I have been a dog and cat owner for 25+ years. I currently have two cats of my own and understand the importance on checking in on them when you are away! I can provide cuddles, playing, litter-box changes etc. to make them feel comfortable. I have an active lifestyle and can keep your dog entertained and healthy throughout walks, runs, cuddling, and brushing. I have most experience with larger dogs (golden retrievers and huskies for example), but also am comfortable with all sizes of dogs. I understand the importance of building a relationship of trust with dogs and how to make sure they feel loved as well. I look forward to making some new furry friends! I work part-time and am mostly available in the evenings + weekends. Please message me for more details. My schedule posted is up to date. I am currently not offering pet sitting in my own home. I care for pets by frequent bathroom breaks, brushing, playing and cuddling of course.
About: The dog skill of staying aware of my surroundings has taught me everything I need to know to continue living a stress free life with my dog. All dogs are different and I can show them a comfortable attitude while providing some healthy exercise. My schedule is open to fit your needs at the moment and I can commute near my home quickly in a car for emergencies. Since we live in a tough environment I will come prepared for the weather appropriately. I usually take my dog out 3 to 4 times per day which includes picking up poop and learning of basic tricks. She is 5 but strong as labradors are because of their size.
“We were very happy with our experience! Our dog was clearly comfortable, well cared for, and genuinely happy during their stay. Morgon's communication with us was great with regular updates and photos. We would absolutely book again and highly recommend her.”
About: I have worked in animal medicine for 27 years and owned/operated my own pet sitting business. I love all animals and have cared for birds, pocket pets, dog and cats. I am comfortable giving oral/topical and injections (ex. Insulin). Two years ago I spent a year getting certified in animal hospice and palliative care. I know leaving a little old timer at home is stressful and requires someone with advanced caregiving skills. I welcome dogs, cats, birds, rabbits, guinea pigs, rodents and small reptiles. I am working from home. Animals who are cared for in our home are rarely alone. I can be available for visits during daytime or evenings. I have a quarter acre fenced yard. We have a pug named Bruce and a border collie named Biscuit. We live in a bi-level home in a quiet neighbourhood close to hiking trails that we frequent often. Pocket pets enjoy their own room and birds are upstairs with outdoor lookout.

“Cassidy is basically part of the family at this point as she is the absolute best person I could think of to watch our little Peanut. I have so much trust in her and she has gone above and beyond. Her dog Remi is so sweet and very good with our dog. We get daily photos and check ins of what our pup is up too and she is always taking them to the park and for hikes. Peanut runs right into her house without looking back and gets sad for a day or two when we come home hahaha! She aka gave out pup antibiotics and eye drops during separate stays and was so accommodating. Such a phenomenal person and truly wonderful with animals!”
About: I grew up on a farm and have cared for animals of all shapes and sizes. I work at a local vet clinic and I’m a certified groomer. I’m happy to care for your pets while you are away! I have 3 cats and 1 dog of my own and work at a local vet clinic so caring for pets is my daily routine. I am available all day on my days off and before and after work on the days I work.
