“Carina was amazing, she took such good care of my dog Chewy for a weekend, I was very impressed. Chewy needed special care as he was dealing with some back pain during this time. Carina followed instructions for giving medication, meals, and other small things to give Chewy a great stay and help him feel safe. She spoiled him with some quality homecooked beef and salmon, and lots of love. She also sent me many pics/videos/updates every and was very responsive. Chewy is doing well now and recovering. I highly recommend Carina as a dog sitter, she is very nice lady, she will give lots of love and care to your fur baby.”
“Ginette was incredible with our dog Zeus. She was attentive and went above and beyond to take care of him. He had some separation anxiety and she took extra measures to make sure he ate and drank water. She also sent plenty of pictures and responded to any questions I had very promptly. I would highly recommend Ginette to take care of your fur babies anyday and we'll be booking with her again.”
“Brooke was fantastic with Parker over the long weekend.She asked thoughtful questions before to ensure she understood all his routines and spoiled him with wonderful long walks. Parker came back home happy and well-cared for. Highly recommended!”
“Thank you so much for taking such great care of Parker! Sarah responded fast everytime and she also sent pictures which was really nice to see! She was very helpful when I asked her to look after a sore on my dog! Thank you so much for helping us all enjoy our vacation and knowing our dog was well taken care of! He loves going to Sarah's house and loves her dogs too!”
About: I have been a dog owner for over 20 years. I recently had to let my ole girl pass over the rainbow, such an heartbreaking decision to make. She was happy as the only dog if the house and I had a desire for more happy tails! So I decided to start walking dogs and doing pet visits so that I could fulfill my need for more waggy tails! I do work a local job that runs Monday -Friday, but am done by 3:15. I schedule my walks for 3:15 and after.I do get a 30 min lunch break that I can do washroom breaks for pets if needed. Walks are 30-45 mins. I do have weekends and evenings off, this is where I make the time for pups/cats. I do not tend to bring other dogs to my home, I have done so on occasion but only after my dog has had a chance to meet our new furry visitor. I do dog walks, visits and out door adventures for your pup. I even take some of my 4 legged friends to the back country roads, for that nice open free run!
“My dog was at Sarah's once for daycare and when we left him for boarding he was super excited to go there. Sarah sent regular updates and left me at ease, knowing he was being well cared for.”
“I highly recommend Janelle! I went away overnight and leaving my fur baby with her made it completely stress and worry free! My dog has a little bit of health issues and she was so understanding and tended to my dog perfectly! Janelle sent lots of updates and photos, it was great!”
“Teaghan was absolutely wonderful! We were in town for a wedding and her wonderful care of my fur baby made the weekend so much more enjoyable! Lola had a blast and was well cared for! She also sent up updates and photos. Highly recommend Teaghan for your pet sitting needs!”
“Laura and John took great care of our Jojo and they even took her in on short notice. We have taken her there twice now and both times she had a blast. Even got a bath after digging in the dirt the first time. We will definitely be back. Thanks again for taking Jojo in onsuch short notice.”
About: We are a dog-loving, active couple who are all about fun walks, belly rubs, and tail-wagging adventures. With us, your pup will get plenty of playtime, exercise, and care—guaranteeing happy, tired tails by the end of the day! We have a garden that is fenced on three sides and we are located off the street on a quiet private lot. We are close to walking trails and are near to the beach. We have access to a car for pickup and drop off, going on longer adventures, or emergencies. Our schedule isn't fixed and therefore there will be some weekdays available, usually Mondays free. The evenings are often free with pickup available in the city center after 6:00pm. The weekends are much more flexible but we are willing to work with you! We also love snacks and walks so sharing these activities with your dog will be a blast! We will cater to your specific walking and feeding requirements just as you would. We only take dogs from the same home so there's no risk of new friends not getting along. We can usually accommodate pickup and drop off and have a car in case of emergency.
About: Like many others, I have been blessed with having the ability to care for animals throughout my life. In 2015, I had the wonderful opportunity to follow my passion professionally. I began working in a veterinarian clinic as a receptionist, technician assistant and external boarding for cats. After the adoption of our beloved Trixie in 2018, my focus shifted to behavior training while continuing care within the small animal medical atmosphere. Recently, I became certified as a professional pet dog trainer and specialized in aggression/reactivity/seperation anxiety. I continue my education through conferences/mentor sessions and am working towards becoming CCPDT certified. I am also an enrichment scent work instructor. I also have my Canine First Aid certification. If you are looking for someone to care for your companion, and would like to add any of the services that are mentioned above during their time with me (or at another time), I would love to get to know you and your companion. I am currently a stay at home mom and provide individualized training consultations as well as general pet care during early mornings and evenings during the week (including weekends). I offer limited care (1 or 2 dogs at a time) in my own home during the day if need be. My only requirements are that your companion not have prey drive (I do have cats and young children) and are good with another female adult dog. I have a large fenced in yard, and can accommodate your specific instructions/requirements as much as possible. Your companion will always be supervised and never left unattended.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our .
