“Cynthia and Dave were amazing!! They put my mind at ease while I was away and Obi just adored them! Obi was well taken care of, never had any worries! Definitely people you can trust to take care of your pet and treat them like they are their own! Will be rebooking again!!”
“Alison was amazing with Missy. I will take her back there if there is ever a need too. Missy was treated the way she is at home....spoiled! Thank you Alison. Missy”
“Euna took excellent care of my Chico, I can tell he had a great and safe time. Euna was able to give regular updates through the stay and it was a great relief to know that your pet is in good hands while you are away”
“I can not say how grateful we are for their care of our beloved boys. I received daily updates while traveling and pictures to reassure the boys were happy and comfortable with Bill & Tracy. I would highly recommend them to anyone who wants a caring environment to leave their loved ones in. I am very thankful for the reviews of others and I hope this also helps the next worried parents to be assured that your loved ones will be in good hands with Bill & Tracy. Best wishes to them and I will use them again in the future.”
“Mike was amazing with Sam when he cared for him for a night. Mike sent me lots of photos and kept me updated on how Sam was making out, which took the stress out of my leaving him when I was away. I would recommend Mike as a caregiver for anyone looking for their pets!”
“Colleen was super easy and professional to communicate with. It was our pups first time with her so the environment was new. That combined with some unexpected fireworks made for some anxious babies. Colleen changed her sleeping arrangements to accommodate them and make them feel safe so everyone could sleep. I was very comfortable and happy that Murph and Eddie stayed with Colleen.”
“I couldn't ask for a better family to look after my dog. They spoiled them every day, took him on daily adventures and sent my family daily video and photos. I have recommended them to my friends and family. If there was a hire than a five staring, I would give it to them.”
About: I’ve lived with pets my entire life, and have seen all kinds of personalities and needs. I’m always attentive of individual pet needs and treat them like my own. I work full time 8-4 and currently often go away on weekends from Friday-Sunday. Otherwise I’m home the whole time after work to give lots of attention. I can also go home during lunch if ever needed. I’ve recently moved into a new home and have an empty basement at the moment which won’t be furnished for a few more months. Your cat can have their own very large space there with a bedroom included for them. Dogs can enjoy the whole house with me if they are friendly with my cat, and enjoy plenty of space in my large fenced backyard.
“Mariella and her family took great care of Archie! I had pictures sent to me throughout his stay and he was crying in the car home. He had so much fun! Thank you again Mariella and family!”
“Ruby had an amazing stay. I was super nervous leaving her for 2 weeks but she had a great time. Courtney and her family were great hosts. We got lots of updates and our dog got lots of snuggles. I finally feel like we can travel again and leave our pup in great hands.”
“Ashley was amazing! She helped us out in a pinch with a very last minute request due to an unexpected situation. She even arranged a meet and greet with us in the limited windows of time we gave her. Our dog had so much fun with her and her family and I’m sure will be super excited for another visit. Thanks again!!”
“Nathaly was amazing! super friendly and professional. She knows what she is doing and has the experience. Leaving both Teddy & Leo in her hands was the best decision. She gave us peace of mind and always kept us up to date with pictures and videos. If you’re looking for someone who will truly take care of your loved ones don’t look anywhere else I highly recommend Nathaly! 🙏🏼”
“Gus had a great time with Rie and Masahiro!! They sent consistent updates to let me know how he was settling in, and took Gus for some great walks. Gus came home a happy safe puppy, which as a pet parent is all you can ask for :) definitely will book with them again”
“Matthew took amazing care of my two boys, Gus and Jaq! He sent frequent pictures and videos, which gave me so much peace of mind while they were in his care. My two frenchies clearly had a great time, and I felt completely comfortable knowing they were safe and well looked after. I would absolutely recommend Matthew and wouldn’t hesitate to book with him again!”
“We were planning a trip and knew it would be more difficult to do some of the things on our list with our dog present. So last minute, I googled to try to find a kennel in the area. I've owned dogs my entire life and have never left them somewhere else, so wanted to see what was being offered. I came across Rover and leaving her with a family instead of a kennel sounded so much better; I didn't even know this existed! Valerie got back to me promptly, confirming her availability to watch our Indie. From the moment we arrived, she was warm and welcoming, and we knew Indie would enjoy her stay. We were provided with updates, and they really enjoyed having her there. I highly recommend Valerie to care for your pup; our girl came back happy and healthy, and should we ever need someone to watch her again, we will be making Valerie our first choice !”
“I can’t recommend Gail enough! We left our Rocky with her for a few days while we were busy with our wedding and he enjoyed his stay so much! He was very comfortable and the photos that we were sent everyday helped calm our nerves. You can tell that Gail really has a love and appreciation for dogs. We can’t thank her enough ❤️❤️”
About: What truly sets me apart is my calm, confident energy and my belief that every dog deserves love, safety, and stimulation — even when you can’t be there. I treat every pet like my own, because I know how much they mean to you. I have lived with animals all my life. I have experience with cats, dogs, hamsters, various types of lizards and chicks. I work full time very close to home. I am available most weekends and evenings for walks or any other needs you may have ! Large unfenced yard Lots of walks, long leashes for free exploration. Can take to dog parks if needed. At home, all animals are allowed on the furniture. Bed included.
“Nigel and his family took such great care of my Gigi! She had so much fun playing with their dog, Ozzy, and it was wonderful knowing she was in such loving hands. I would definitely book with them again!”
“Shelly and her family took such care of lulu. I will definitely be asking to take care of lulu again and im greatful for the photos and updates that where sent as well. :) i knew lulu was in good hands.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Brantford
Looking at the pictures Britt sent us while we on vacation, it looked like Dillon had a great time with Britt, Steve & Mona. This was his first long stay (2 weeks) and we appreciated the pictures and notes while we were away. Definitely felt more ar ease leaving Dillon with Britt and allowed to have a stress free time. 5 star for sure!
Sree and vysakh have been amazing. They have looked after our baby so nicely. I can tell from the way my little one behaves how someone has treated him. He looked so happy and so well behaved! He was happy to go again. Thanks so much and you can trust them blindly with your furry baby
We had the absolute best experience with Taylor! From the moment we connected, I felt completely at ease leaving Leo in her care. She was attentive, responsible, and truly treated him like her own. Leo can be a little curious and loves to explore (classic beagle!), but Taylor was incredibly careful and made sure he was always safe and secure. She also took him on long walks and set up lots of fun playdates — he came back happy, tired, and wagging his tail nonstop! I really appreciated the regular updates, photos, and messages — it gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. It’s such a relief to find someone you can fully trust with your pet. We will definitely be booking with Taylor again! Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and amazing sitter!
Highly recommend Shivangini & Parth! I’ve had great experiences with Shivangini and Parth in the past, and once again they went above and beyond in taking care of my dog, Buddy. After an unfortunate situation with another sitter, they stepped in and made a stressful experience much easier. They kindly helped with picking Buddy up from Kitchener, even though they live in Brantford, which I truly appreciated. Buddy was well cared for, comfortable, and happy during his stay. They are reliable, compassionate, and genuinely care about the pets they look after. I’m very grateful for their help and would highly recommend Shivangini & Parth to anyone looking for trustworthy and experienced pet sitters.
Jessica is amazing she and her mom are so warm and kind stepping into their home I too instantly felt at home. My baby was with her for over a week and each day I would get thoughtful updates and pictures (all of which my baby was smiling in) he had all the play time in the world in Jessica's HUGE backyard and he even slept in her bed with her at night. I will be returning to her each and every time now!
