About: My first pet as a kid was a cat my family rescued. When I was in high school I volunteered for 4 years at the Hamilton SPCA doing dog walks . And cats and small animal socializing. Career wise I worked in the child care field for 10+ years in different roles. In 2024 I changed jobs to house cleaning I also adopted a rescue senior cat that I later found out had diabetes in 2023 ❤️‍🩹 *** recent update . Because my landlady is also boarding dogs . And her place is small she asked that I no longer do it . My work schedule is flexible. But right now because I’m new on rover and things are slow I’m working mon - Fri So will be available for weekends . I can accommodate a week long booking I just need some notice to book the days off at work I care about animals like they are my own . And do my best to make sure they feel safe and loved and give them my time and attention , I do treat my experience as life long learning . I have a good friend who had her own private dog sitting business for over 10 years she did many workshops over the years she’s a wealth of knowledge for me . But I’m trying to catch up and learn about dog training and things like dog cpr online. So I can be the best dog and cat sitter for your beloved.

About: I grew up with pets and love taking care of them. My first pet Barney was my best friend growing up. We would play every day and I would feed her, brush and bathe her and clean her litter. She was a special part of the family for 16 years. My next pet Aiden was a very special part of my life. I always took good care of him and he was a real comfort to me when I was feeling down. I had another pet Rambo who just recently passed. She was almost 17 years old. I saved her because nobody wanted her and we always had a special bond. I appreciate their unique personalities. I am very caring and gentle. I currently work for Vogue Models & Talent which is based in Hamilton, Toronto and Vancouver. It's a fun and creative job and I enjoy it very much. I have a fenced in yard and my house is very clean and safe. I always keep my eye on the pets I care for.

About: I’m a friendly, attentive pet sitter with 40 years of pet care experience and Canadian Red Cross First Aid for Dogs & Cats training. I provide thoughtful, reliable care for cats, dogs, and other common household pets, and I’m happy to follow each pet’s usual routine, feeding schedule, and care instructions. I’m especially patient with shy pets and attentive to the needs of senior animals who may need a quieter approach or extra care and monitoring. I’m also comfortable administering medications in food or pill pockets, as well as injections for calm, cooperative pets that are comfortable being handled. My schedule is flexible, and I do my best to work around each pet’s usual routine and comfort level. I work remotely during house sittings, which allows me to spend lots of quality time with pets throughout the day and evening while still balancing occasional drop-in visits and appointments 😊 During drop-in visits and house sittings, I make pet safety and home security a priority. I’m mindful of doors, gates, harnesses, and leashes to help prevent pets from slipping out or becoming unsafe during care and walks. I carefully follow household routines and instructions, keep feeding and medication schedules consistent, and always do my best to leave your home tidy and well cared for. For safety reasons, I’m unable to care for pets with contagious illnesses or pets that display aggressive behaviour such as snapping, biting, or persistent nipping toward people or other animals. I do not provide pet care in my own home. All services take place in the client’s home environment so pets can remain comfortable in their familiar space and routine 🐾

“Victoria was great to work with and took good care of our pup for walks and potty breaks. Her communication was great and she was reliable. I think our pup felt comfortable with her and we'll hire her again!”

“Margarita did an amazing job and was great at communicating during visits. She was always on time and took great care of my dog.”

About: I’ve been a dog lover for as long as I can remember — I grew up with two or more dogs in our family from the time I was a baby, so having dogs around has always felt like home to me! I currently have a 3-year-old Goldendoodle who is very much part of our family. My children have grown up alongside him, so they’re used to having a dog as part of their everyday life and understand that dogs deserve kindness, respect and plenty of love. My former pup was part of our family for many years and, later in life, needed extra care while living with diabetes, Cushing’s disease and seizures. That experience taught me just how important patience, consistency and paying close attention to a dog’s individual needs can be. I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes and personalities, from little ones to big dogs, and I genuinely love getting to know each dog’s quirks and routine. As a mum, I’m naturally nurturing and attentive, and I truly believe dogs are so much more than just pets — they’re part of the family. They deserve to feel loved, safe and included, and that’s exactly how I would treat your pup while they’re with us. 🐾❤️ I have a flexible work-from-home job, along with some community work, which means I’m able to work my schedule around the needs of the dogs in my care. I have flexibility throughout the day and can usually accommodate different routines, walks, drop-ins and stays with some advance notice. I’m home often and love having a pup around to keep me company! 🐾❤️ Shoot me a message and I'm sure we can work something out My home is a loving, family environment where dogs are welcomed as part of the family. I have a fully fenced yard where pups can safely enjoy outdoor time, and i currently have a 3-year-old Goldendoodle who is very used to having other dogs around. I also have a finished basement that can provide a quiet, comfortable space away from the kids and our dog if your pup prefers some alone time, needs a break, or simply likes having a calm place to relax. For boarding stays, I’m also happy to sleep in our guest room with your dog if they’re more comfortable having someone nearby overnight. Safety and trust are really important to me. I take the time to learn each dog’s routine, personality, comfort level and any special needs before their stay. I’m attentive to feeding schedules, medications, walks and anything else that helps them feel comfortable and settled. I work from home, so I’m home often and dogs aren’t left alone for long periods of time. Our children are comfortable and respectful around dogs, and I’m always mindful of making sure every pup has the space they need. Most importantly, I want every dog staying with us to feel safe, loved and genuinely part of the family — whether that means playing in the yard, cuddling on the couch, or having a quiet night downstairs with me. 🐾❤️

About: My father was a farmer I used to feed our dogs and cats since 8 years old administered flea treatments, give them baths, walked and played with them. I am able to do cat sitting or dog sitting and walks at clients homes or at my home sitting/boarding and bathing Mondays through Friday’s. I take care of your pets as family and my own with love patience, respect and kindness. I am a calm individual who has been through a lot of situations with dogs and cats.

“Morgan was great with bandit and I knew he was in good hands with her. Morgan is also a great communicator and gets back to you quickly. Thanks Morgan”

About: I’ve grown up surrounded by animals - cats, dogs, birds, Guinea pigs .. you name it! Today I share my home with a playful 2 year old Corgi, a 4 year old Pug and even a pet crab belonging to my eldest daughter! I truly adore animals and find caring for them to be one of the most joyful ways to spend my days. I’ve fostered, boarded and walked dogs regularly, so your furry friends will be in loving, experienced hands! I am currently available Monday - Friday from 10:00 AM to 2:30 PM for drop ins and walks. I am open for reoccurring time slots as well. I am also available on weekends with 5 days notice! Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priority. I treat every animal like my own, ensuring calm, loving and secure environment during walks and drop-ins. I’m attentive to their routines, keep a close eye on surroundings, and communicate clearly with owners every step of the way. You can trust that your furry friends is in safe, caring hands!

About: I have had dogs nearly my entire life and love their individual personalities and quirks. I have experience pilling animals, and can help trim nails/bathe pets as needed. I am available 24/7, 365, as long as I have proper notice. I know emergencies can happen and because I make my own work schedule, I can be available when you need. I have a one bedroom apartment, so would be best suited for cat sitting, small - medium sized dogs that would enjoy a residential neighborhood or small park walks. In your environment, I'm happy to follow any specific rules or needs you may have for home or pet care! There is no request too strange to ensure the safety and comfort for you and your animals!

“Mateo has been absolutely fantastic to work with. Our dog can be challenging at times and yet he was not worried to work with her. He is punctual, knowledgeable, kind, caring and a pleasure to work with. We would certainly recommend him and hope to use his services for a long time!”

About: Welcome! We are a young married couple who adores animals. Caring for pets is our cherished side hobby rather than a high-volume business, so we choose to host only one family at a time. This allows us to offer a private and peaceful home sanctuary where we can pour 100% of our attention, warmth, and care into your little one. Our work-from-home schedule means your dog enjoys constant companionship, a gentle and quiet environment, and all the couch cuddles they could ever want. For our walking and house sitting services, we welcome well-mannered dogs of all sizes, ensuring every pup receives a tailored, boutique care experience. We are both small business owners with primarily work-from-home schedules. We have very flexible days and are able to give your pup all of the attention, cuddles, and supervision that it may need. We also love to drive the little one over to local hikes and beaches for safe but exciting afternoon adventures. Our home is peaceful with only two adults living here. We do not have kids or other pets and safety is our first priority. Our home is a stress-free, premium experience, particularly well, suited for smaller pets.

About: I’m an outdoorsy girl with a big heart for dogs and a love of adventure. Seeing them happy genuinely matters to me, and I’ll go the extra mile for a wagging tail—whether that’s a walk full of interesting sniffs, extra playtime, or quiet company. With so much nature around me, there’s plenty to explore. Sunny days or snowy ones, I’m happy to head outside when it’s safe, always keeping your dog’s comfort, routine, and energy level in mind. I treat animals like my own children. Your dog’s little quirks, favourite games, and need for reassurance matter to me, because I want them to feel loved and secure while you’re away. Spending time outdoors is already a part of my life, so walks, fresh air, and adventures fit naturally into my routine. When caring for a pet, I plan around their feeding times, bathroom breaks, exercise, and need for company. I make room for both the practical care and the little extras—playtime, cuddles, and time to settle in and feel comfortable. I care for pets like they’re my own children... with love, patience, and attention to the little things that help them feel safe. Before caring for them, I take time to learn their routines, preferences, and any special needs, so I can follow your instructions and keep things familiar. In your home, I respect your space and keep your pet’s usual routine, from meals and walks to litter care and favourite resting spots. In my home, I focus on helping them settle in comfortably, with introductions and time to explore at their own pace. Walks, playtime, and outdoor adventures are always suited to your pet and the weather, with plenty of rest and affection along the way. I’m also happy to share photos and updates so you can see how your loved one is doing.

About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life. I started going door to door in my neighbourhood offering dog walking when I was around 7 years old, and I’ve always loved spending time with animals. I’ve had many different dogs over the years, including a Yorkie Shih Tzu, Vizsla, Border Collie, Chocolate Lab, Pitbull Lab mix, Golden Retriever, and a mixed breed, so I’ve gotten to experience lots of different sizes, breeds, personalities, and energy levels. I’ve spent lots of time training my own dogs, practicing tricks, leash manners, recall, and basic commands. I’ve also helped with grooming, brushing, bathing, nail care, and just making sure they feel comfortable and cared for. Growing up, I was always the person my neighbours trusted to watch their dogs while they were away. I’ve always had a natural connection with dogs and genuinely enjoy getting to know each dog’s personality and what makes them happy. My schedule is pretty much always open. I’m free mornings, afternoons, evenings, weekdays, weekends, and holidays. Whether you need someone last minute, a quick walk, or someone to hang out with your dog while you’re gone, I’m happy to help. I’ve had dogs my whole life, so I know they’re family. I’ll make sure your dog gets lots of love, attention, playtime, fresh water, and of course treats (if allowed 😊). If I’m in your home, I’ll always clean up after myself and leave it cleaner than when I got there. I live on an acreage with a big fenced yard, so there’s lots of room to run and play. I also have a long leash outside for dogs that like a little more freedom but still need to stay on a leash. I have two dogs of my own—Pepper (3) and Jaxson (11). They’re both super sweet, but if your dog isn’t good with other dogs, that’s totally okay. Mine can stay downstairs while your pup has the upstairs all to themselves. My house is non-smoking, and I have extra toys, bowls, and lots of dr treats. I honestly just love dogs and would love to hang out with yours. :)

“Manuel was very professional. He arrived on time, even on short notice. We wanted to try and see if there was hope for our anxious dog to get comfortable being walked by someone other than us, and Manuel did a wonderful job! I will definitely book him again for more trial walks until our dog gets excited to see him. Thank you for your service!”

About: I’ve always loved being around animals and understand that every pet has a unique personality and routine. Whether it’s going for long walks, playtime, feeding, administering basic medications, or simply providing companionship, I make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I have experience caring for both dogs and cats of different breeds, sizes, and energy levels. I’m happy to follow your pet’s regular schedule, provide updates with photos, and ensure they receive the attention and care they deserve. My goal is to give you peace of mind, knowing your furry family member is in caring and reliable hands. Safety, patience, and compassion are my top priorities, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. I work from home full-time, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to provide consistent attention and care throughout the day. Your pet won’t be left alone for long periods, and I’ll have plenty of time for walks, playtime, potty breaks, feeding, and lots of companionship. Your pet’s safety and well-being are my top priorities. I provide a calm, clean, and pet-friendly environment where your furry family member will feel comfortable and secure. I’ll carefully follow your pet’s routine, feeding schedule, exercise needs, and any special instructions you provide. I believe in open communication and will keep you updated with regular photos and messages so you can enjoy peace of mind while you’re away. Every pet in my care is treated with patience, kindness, and the same love and respect I’d give my own.

About: I come from Ecuador where having a dog as part of the family is very common - so as a dog-lover here in Port Colborne, I am happy to provide the wise loving care you want for your pup. I have a sweet female 2-year-old golden doodle who is totally part of my family. I’d welcome your dog, too - whether it’s for a walk, a day-long play date, or a sleep over. When caring for pets, I feed them, give them fresh water, walk or play with them, and clean up after them. I make sure they're comfortable and happy.

“So kind, professional, and a great communicator!!”
