“Dijla and Shane did such a wonderful job looking after our cat, Maui while we were away! Can't thank them enough for everything. Our cat has separation anxiety and they made her feel comfortable and happy given how often she'd hangout and sit with them in the living room. We definitely appreciated and loved all the photos and updates they sent over every day which put us at ease knowing she was in good hands :) They even watered our garden which we were super grateful for. We would highly recommend them, and would 100% have them take care of Maui again in the future. Thank you guys for everything! And I'm sure Maui will miss having you two around!”
“Leanne did a great job taking care of our boy! She came for a meet and greet before which we really appreciated so she could learn all his quirks! Her communication was excellent and we had peace of mind knowing she was caring for him.”
“Madeline made me feel very calm and ensured that my gracie was being well taken care off. She was able to reduce my anxiety of being away from my cat. She was an amazing sitter and will definitely book again!”
About: As a lifelong pet owner, I've always had a house filled with multiple pets. From kittens and puppies to seniors. As small as 5lb chihuahuas to 95lb labs, I have experience with all ages, stages and sizes. I'm currently in the start-up phase of creating my own home-based business so have lots of availability during the weekday. As a mom to two, evenings and weekends can be challenging but may be possible. I'm a very affectionate caregiver and love showering dogs and cats with lots of pets and snuggles. Each pet gets treated as if they were my own. As an avid traveller, I know what it's like to leave your pet in someone's care and the disappointment that can come when the caregiver does not live up to your expectations, and I vow not to do that to another family. I will treat your pet and home with the utmost respect.
About: I’ve taken care of awkward dogs, affectionate dogs, chill dogs and I have experience with feeding them their special diets as instructed and following any specific potty time habits they may have to help them go potty. For example this one dog I dogsat would have to spin around in circles a few times before he went potty. I have experience staying overnight with dogs as well as cats. I have cats of my own as well and I’ve been around all kinds of pets my whole life so I’m very comfortable around most pets. I will be attending full time school in September but I will have time in between classes or before/after where I can schedule play dates and walks. When I enter the home I keep my energy calm. I try to get a read on whether the pet is comfortable with being approached. Then if they are, I hold out my hand so they can sniff it and familiarize themselves with my scent. I will follow any specific instructions there are so I can make sure they’re following their routine. I will play with them. A lot of the dogs I take care of enjoy tug o war or fetch. But with any pet, before play time I would want to have some time to just sit around them so they can get used to me before we start playing/walking. If possible I would prefer to set up a test meeting with pets and parents beforehand.
“Rayla went above and beyond to take care of our pets while we were away for 3 weeks. She did many extra things to keep our house clean and help us out as well. She is quick to respond and a great communicator. Took extra time to assess each of our pets every visit and take any additional care steps as required. Highly recommended.”
About: I have experience ranging from fish, dogs, cats to even horses, growing up I used to pet sit/walk for family friends, neighbours and even at a family owned campground for local campers to enjoy a night out and have their pet cared for while doing so. I love long hikes, so if your furry friend is in need of that I have 2 years of experience with on leash and off leash hiking with dogs, or if your pet just needs some snuggles I’m happy to do that aswell! I spent 2 years working for an outdoor dog daycare gaining lots of hands on experience with training, socialization and regular dog care. I’m currently working part time morning shifts a few days a week, Monday, Wednesday, Friday, from 8-12 other than that my schedule is pretty open! I like to do individualized care programs based off each pet’s individual needs, aswell as owner preferences. Because just like us, our furry friends have totally different likes and needs too 🙂
“Luisa is bubbly and such a sweet person. she made sure that all our furbabies needs were met while we were away. She will give updates during her visits to ensure you are at peace. Thank you very much Luisa for taking care of our furbabies. Will def book again if we need to be away for a trip.”
“Henry was reliable, communicative, and kind to my cats. He followed instructions carefully, kept me updated, and left everything tidy. I would definitely book him again.”
“Sheila is amazing! My cat came to her right away. This is unusual as Bobbi is skittish with most people. Sheila sent me photos and updates daily. My home was tidy upon my return and my cat relaxed. It was my first time using this service. Sheila is amazing. I am so very grateful to have used her services. I highly recommend Sheila!!!! Just fantastic!”
“I could tell Lob(cat) was well cared for while I was away. Excellent communication and regular updates with photos. I would recommend Toni to anyone who needs a reliable and caring pet sitter!”
About: Hello there! My name is Emma, and I would love to care for your pet. I’m a responsible and attentive pet sitter who genuinely treats every pet like my own. I have experience caring for dogs of different personalities, energy levels, and routines, and I understand that every pet has different needs. I’m especially attentive to keeping pets comfortable, happy, and on their normal schedule while their owners are away. I’m active and love taking dogs on walks, playing with them, and giving them plenty of attention and exercise. I’m also comfortable providing extra care and patience for puppies, senior dogs, and pets who may need a little more attention or reassurance. I'm currently in school from Monday to Wednesday and completely free the rest of the week. So I have plenty of time to play with your pups. Additionally, my classes are flexible during those days, so I can be available for certain periods of time then as well! I care for every pet as if they were my own, while making sure I follow their individual routine and their owner’s instructions. I provide plenty of attention, playtime, exercise, fresh food and water, and lots of affection. I’m also attentive to their behaviour and comfort so I can recognize when something seems unusual or when they need extra care. Whether pets are staying in my home or I’m caring for them in their own home, I focus on keeping them comfortable, safe, and on their normal routine. I’m happy to accommodate different personalities, energy levels, feeding schedules, medications, and other specific needs. My goal is for every pet to feel happy, relaxed, and well cared for while their owner is away.
About: My name is Karolina and I have been training dogs and horses for over 25 years of my life. A born animal lover and empath Ive kept animals off my plate since I was 7 years old, adopting a vegan lifestyle over 10 years ago. I've rescued and rehabilitated all sorts of animals in my lifetime and I will continue to commit myself to animal welfare and quality of life for the rest of my life. Animals are my purpose and educating pet parents on animal care and communication is my mission. I will always be the appropriate environment your pet needs. As a dog and horse trainer, my entire life revolves around animals and their needs, both physically and mentally. My days are dictated by the animals I have in my care that day My home is clean, tidy and doggy proofed. Fenced yard, my home is fully accessible including furniture, but can also provide structure "place" or crate time if required. Up to 4 walks a day. Water dish is always out and filled up with filtered water. Heat and humidifier is always on in the winter, A/C in the summer. As a skilled trainer I can reinforce implemented training and structure
“Danielle is very kind, accomodating and reliable. She boarded my cat Bella and gave her lots of love and affection. She sent regular pictures and messages. It was a pleasure to have a peace of mind. I will definitely be booking her again. I highly recommend Danielle for your pet sitting.”
“Amyaz and his partner were so good with my kitten Dobby. He was comfortable with them and they took time to tell me how he was doing and send me photos of him. I would definitely recommend him and I am already booking with him again.”
“Mary was excellent as always. She watched our cat and house while we were away in Alaska for 10 days. She sends lots of pictures and updates. She follows his routine to a tee. He was very relaxed when we got home. She left the house exactly as it was when we left. Thanks again Mary!”
About: I have both professional and personal experience working with dogs and cats! I’ve worked in doggy daycares since I was 15 while also caring for family and neighbourhood cats. Additionally, I’m a Veterinary Assistant student that’s received a fear-free certification along with CPR/first aid training. I love all animals and enjoy caring for them! At the moment, I work part-time at a nearby doggy daycare but I am able to adjust my schedule to accommodate the needs of any future clients I always ensure I’m creating a safe environment for the dogs in my care, if we’re walking or at home. On walks I’ll always survey the area and watch your dogs body language to check for any anxiousness and handle all situations with a calm and collected demeanour.
About: I’ve had dogs since I was five years old and truly can’t remember a time when dogs weren’t part of my life! I also helped my mom with her in-home dog boarding service, which has given me experience caring for dogs of all ages, personalities, and needs. I’m comfortable with everything from puppies under a year old and dogs who aren’t crate trained to seniors who need extra hands-on care. I have experience giving medications, helping senior dogs up and down stairs or furniture, and using a wagon when walks are no longer comfortable. I’ve also cared for reactive dogs and understand the importance of patience, boundaries, and following each dog’s individual routine. We’re huge animal lovers in our home, and pets are treated like part of the family. Dogs are welcome to get comfortable, roam freely, play, relax, and receive plenty of attention and affection. I’m very comfortable adapting to different needs and personalities and want every dog in my care to feel safe, loved, and at home. I am a student with an flexible schedule, who is open most weekdays during the day to come and check in on your furry friends, walk them, take them to the park, etc. When I have pets in the home, they are the priority always. My day is scheduled around taking them out, play time, walks and treats. If I have to step out, I like to leave the TV on for them to feel calm. I enjoy taking dogs with me to the park, the Pet Store, or even other dog friendly stores like Canadian Tire/Home Depot. Pets are curious and should explore all day! At home, we treat all pets like our own allowing them to roam and as they please and hang in our fenced yard. At your home, I would follow any and all rules you implement, and ensure that I am constantly changing water, taking our furry friends outside, and keeping them entertained with toys and games.
About: Your pup gets the best of both worlds! 🐾 I’m a veterinary technician and hospital manager, so I’m comfortable with everything from playful puppies to sweet seniors and dogs who need a little extra TLC. My husband is a full-time dog walker, so there’s always someone around for walks, cuddles, playtime, and little adventures! ✨ We love making dogs feel like part of the family — whether that means zoomies in the yard, a cozy cuddle session, or being their personal treat-tasting assistant. 🐶💕 Our goal? Happy pups, wagging tails, tired-out toes, and a dog who’s already wondering when they get to come back! 🐾 🐾 Pets are part of our everyday life! My husband is home regularly, so your pup or kitty gets plenty of company, attention, playtime, and supervision throughout the day. Caring for animals is second nature to us. Between walks, cuddles, playtime, and relaxing together, we make sure your pet gets the love and care they deserve. We want every pet to feel like part of the family — not just a place to stay, but a true home away from home! ❤️🐶🐱 🐾 A safe, cozy home with plenty to explore! We’re on the first floor of our apartment, making quick potty breaks and outdoor time super easy. We’re also right near a beautiful ravine, so there are lots of walks, sniffing, exploring, and adventures waiting just outside our door! 🌿🐶 Inside, pets are treated like family and get plenty of love, attention, and supervision. We keep things calm, clean, and comfortable while making sure every pet feels safe and gets to enjoy their stay at their own pace. ❤️🐾

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Burlington
Emily was absolutely amazing checking in on TJ while I was on vacation! She truly went above and beyond and made me feel completely comfortable knowing he was in great hands. She sent lots of updates and photos with every visit, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. Emily was reliable, caring, and clearly treated TJ like her own. If you’re like me and feel anxious about leaving your pets for any period of time, you can absolutely trust Emily to take great care of them. I would 100% recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and thoughtful pet sitter, and I’ll definitely be booking with her again!
Lorraine took fantastic care of our two cats while we were away. We truly loved receiving her regular updates and the many beautiful photos she sent, which made being away so much easier. She is reliable, caring, and highly professional. We will definitely ask her to look after our cats again.
Once again, I was extremely pleased with the service provided by Laura. I had to leave my little furry friend at home while traveling for work, and I felt completely at ease knowing he was in Laura’s care. She always takes wonderful care of him, keeps him entertained and happy, and regularly sends me lots of photos and videos, which gives me great peace of mind while I’m away.
Michelle was amazing. She sent photos, kept us updated on Luna's eating, and followed all instructions. She washed Luna's dishes even though we said she could just toss them in the dishwasher and even put bird videos on the TV to entertain Luna :) I would recommend her to anyone looking for someone to pop in and feed or check on their pet while they are away. Fantastic experience
As always, Caroline provided awesome care for my two cats while I was away. She tried various ways to coax my kitten out of hiding until he became familiar and friendly with her and catered to my senior cat by finding him and bringing food and treats to him when he would not appear during her visits. Her communication was excellent as well.
We had a positive experience with Rachel. While we were away for a night, she visited our home to feed our two cats who need individualized portions and are quite scared of strangers. Rachel followed our instructions and left our place clean. Thank you, Rachel :)
