About: I have had dogs for over 30 years, also foster dogs on occasion for a dog rescue group. I strive to ensure my home is as comfortable for the dogs as possible. I am semi retired and work from home. I am home the majority of the day, I try to ensure if I’m going out that it is only once a day. I treat all pets as tho they are my own. I do like to meet the dogs and their owner beforehand to get as much information as possible in advance of their stay.
“So thankful we found Gina! Our two dogs stayed for almost a week and we can tell they had the best stay. Gina and her family treated them just like they were her own! We loved getting the daily updates and pictures of what they were up to while we were on vacation. She always responds quickly and was able to accommodate them for one more night on short notice when our flight was delayed. Thank you so much Gina! We are definitely going to be repeat customers and would recommend her without a doubt!”
“We are going to miss Candace and her family so much!! We’d have several bookings with her and have never felt more comfortable leaving our dog with her family. They are so welcoming, and they truly love dogs! Our dog tucker will miss her family and their dogs so much! Couldn’t recommend Candace more for your dog sitting needs!”
“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.”
“Jackie and Clyde were awesome! Jackie kept me up to date sending videos and pictures of their daily play and hikes. It was easy to see how much Jackie enjoys caring for pups and her pup Clyde loves having new friends to play with too. I had absolutely no worries or concerns while Ruger was with her. We will definitely use Jackie and Clyde again!”
About: I have had a dog in my life since I was 6 years old, that is 57 years of knowing the joy of dogs. I've raised them from puppies, rescued them from the street, cared for them in their old age and through sickness. I have held them all as they have left this world, and gazed into their eyes as they took their last breath so they knew I was there and to not be afraid. I have always considered them my family and treated them as such. I am the person that sits with the dog at house parties. I know that dogs feel safe in my presence as they have the gift of sensing who is a kind human being. I am excited about walking and running with the young dogs, and excited to sit and cuddle with the old. They are welcome in my home, on my couch, on the bed. I work from home, part time, and will always be available for your dog throughout the day and night! They will be welcome to sit beside me in my office on a dog bed, or lounge around anywhere else in my home. My home is very dog friendly. I have two large decks that overlook the forest where they can comfortably lounge in the sun. The can rest in front of my warm gas fireplace on a dog bed in the colder months. I have trails and park right behind my house that I would love to take your dog for walks along. They are welcome to sit on my couches, or hop up on my bed.
“Gail was excellent. Met with her beforehand to get an idea of the layout to see if my senior boy-Harley would fit in at her home. Harley loved his companionship with her two little dogs. I felt very comfortable leaving him there. It’s good knowing he has a place to go to where he’s comfortable. Gail sent me pictures and was very communicative on how he was doing while he was in her care. I highly recommend Gail.”
“Cassie was responsive and accommodating! She took the time to meet Bubba and I before booking his stay which gave us extra reassurance. Bubba seemed to be right at home with Cassie and her family. I would highly recommend her!”
“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 ❤️”
“I have nothing but positive things to say about our experience with Tanya. From our first meet she made me feel so comfortable leaving my pup with her. She really prioritized our routines and I appreciated how knowledgeable she is in dog behaviors and personalities.”
“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!”
“We loved having Sarah here to look after our cat Hannie. When we got home Hannie was very happy and Sarah kept the house spotless. She really bonded with Hannie and we are so grateful to her for looking after our beloved pet for us for the Easter weekend. I .Highly recommend her to anyone who needs somebody who’s really loving to look after their beloved cat.”
“Tamara did a great job with Fitz and kept me updated while on my trip. Very accommodating and gave him a lot of love! Made it easier to enjoy the trip and now know someone in the area who can watch him! Thanks again, Tamara!”
“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.”

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.
About: Garrick (Aussie) and Madison (Canadian), we're a long-term couple who have both had many pets (both cats and dogs) our whole lives and are very experienced house sitters (+10 sits, paid and volunteered). As we travel regularly we can't have a pet of our own at the moment, so sitting for you means we can get our much needed animal time while making sure they are comfortable, loved and happy in their home while you're away. We've house sat all over Australia using aussiehousesitters and in BC, Canada using Rover, with every one of our reviews being 5star! Please see our Rover testimonials at https://www.rover.com/members/garrick-madison-b-the-travelling-pet-comforters/ Garrick works online and Madison won't be working while we travel, so we are able to be with your beloved pets when ever they're keen for some attention. This means your animals won't need to adjust to a new feeding/exercise schedule. We are also available for medium to long term house sits (our longest sit to date was 3 months). We don't have any pets travelling with us, so there won't be any new personalities for your animals to adjust to, just two friendly people. We will care for your animals and home, the same way you do, just tell us your general routine and we'll keep it up until you return home.

“Kelly & her daughter are great pet sitters! They made sure my fur babies got lots of pets & love during their check-ins. I was surprised that my cat Constance was comfortable with them, as she is a skittish girl and always tries to hide when people come over, but she also loved Kelly & her daughter. I'm grateful for their services I will definitely hire them again.”

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.
“Marcella was fantastic! She took my little dog on short notice and I felt comfortable with her right away. Her home is beautiful, welcoming, and clearly set up with dogs in mind. Her dog Winston is incredibly sweet and friendly, and was great with my little guy from the moment they met. It’s obvious she genuinely loves dogs and has lots of experience with them. I wouldn’t hesitate to leave my pup with her again and will definitely be using her services in the future.”

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: Hello! I’m Alexandra. I am a lifelong animal lover with experience caring for dogs, cats, rabbits, and other small pets. I bring a calm, reliable approach to pet sitting, along with a background in both medical and behavioral care that allows me to support pets with a wide range of needs. Over the years, I’ve raised, minded, trained, and cared for everything from bouncy puppies, cantankerous cats, to fragile senior pets. I am skilled in administering subcutaneous fluids, injections, and oral medications, and I’ve supported paralyzed animals with their daily hygiene and comfort. I have also provided end-of-life care with gentleness and compassion, ensuring that pets feel safe and loved at every stage of life. As a rescue advocate, I have worked with a variety of animals experiencing anxiety, reactivity, and high energy. I always focus on patience, structure, and positive engagement. I strive to pay close attention to body language and subtle signals, which helps me to connect with pets who may be shy, nervous, or misunderstood. Aside from medical or behavioral needs, I believe in the little things like walks at the right pace, enrichment that keeps pets interested and engaged, and those quiet moments of affection that help them feel secure. Every animal has their own personality, and I love tailoring my care so they can truly thrive. My time is flexible at the moment and I am willing work around your specific schedules and needs. I look forward to building strong bonds and long term relationships with you and your pets! Day Care Services: Walks, hikes, dog park trips, and vet visits — always tailored to each dog’s needs and energy level. I can be with your dog one-on-one or provide company and play time by bringing along my dog Molly. Molly is gentle and patient with puppies and has a consistent temperment. She is more likely to meander companiably or parallel play than she is to tussle so is the perfect companion for your senior pup or your more reactive dog that needs positive experiences with other dogs. In-Home Care (Dogs): Offered only once I’ve built a relationship and know the dog is safe with my cats and rabbits. In-Home Care (Small Pets): Rabbits or other small animals welcome for day care/overnights if penned. Outdoor Safety: Backyard is enclosed but not fully secure at the back — all outdoor time is supervised. Front yard is unfenced, so dogs are always leashed.
About: I’ve had dogs and cats most of my life, but since getting Bagel my 5 year golden doodle dog i’ve learned so much about what it means to care for and love an animal! I work from home and make my own schedule so it’s very flexible depending what service you are looking for, just ask and we can see if it works! If your pet is staying with us, we have a calm home environment with lots of play time and dog walks included! If you need me to come and check in on your pet and/or go for a walk I can do that as well! Bagels set up is snooze on the carpet or bed but if your pet prefers the crate we can do that too! We have multiple rooms if your pet would like to have it’s own space. Always open to options, we just want them to be comfortable!

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: Growing up in a small town with lots of land, animals were always a huge part of my life. I’ve owned and cared for a wide variety of pets, including French Bulldogs, English Bulldogs, French Mastiffs, Rottweilers, and many cats, giving me experience with dogs of all sizes, energy levels, and personalities. Now that I’m away at university as a full-time student, I miss having pets around every day and love any opportunity to spend time with animals. As a fitness enthusiast, I’m very active and happy to provide long walks, playtime, adventures, and lots of exercise for energetic pets. If your pet prefers relaxing and cuddling, I’m just as happy spending quality time keeping them company while I study. Whether it’s walks, feeding, brushing, bathing, cleaning up after them, or simply giving them lots of love and attention, I’ll make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and spoiled while you’re away. I’ll treat them like they’re my own and make their time with me feel like a vacation. I’m a university student with online courses so I have a flexible schedule, which means I can dedicate plenty of time and attention to your pets. Whether your pet loves long walks, outdoor adventures, playtime, or simply having someone around to keep them company, I’m happy to fit their routine and needs. I enjoy staying active, so energetic pets are always welcome, but I’m just as happy spending a quiet afternoon studying with a cuddly companion by my side. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, preferences, and personality to make sure they feel secure while you’re away. I’m attentive, responsible, and happy to follow any specific instructions regarding feeding, medications, bathing, exercise, training, or household rules. Whether caring for your pet in your home or spending time with them throughout the day or in my home, I’ll treat them with the same love, patience, and care that I would my own pets.

“Chester had an awesome vacation with his new friend Paul. We were travelling from out of town so could not do a meet and greet. Paul and I met by phone and after discussing our needs I felt very confident in Paul. My main concern was how Chester would behave in someone else’s home. Paul was very relaxed and we could tell that he had Chester’s best interests at heart. Loved getting regular photos and newsy updates. I hope we have the opportunity to book Paul again.”
