About: Hi, I’m Heather! 👋 I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember, and I’m so excited to offer dog walking, home visits, and pet sitting through Rover! I understand how difficult it can be to leave your precious pets with someone you’ve never met. That’s why I make it a priority to provide plenty of updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while your pets are in my care. Dog walking is my main focus, though I offer sitting and drop in services also. I’d love to become a reliable part of your dog’s routine! Whether your pup needs some extra exercise, a chance to get outside during the day, or simply some attention and companionship, I’m happy to help. I’m a very active person and genuinely enjoy spending time outdoors with dogs, so dog walking is a perfect fit for me. I’ve cared for dogs of many different sizes and breeds, including Doodles, Mini Goldendoodles, Maltese, and Golden Retrievers and more! I understand that every dog is different, and that breed, age, personality, and energy level can all play a role in what they need. I always take these things into consideration and tailor each walk and visit to the individual dog. As a self employed personal trainer, I have the flexibility to create my own schedule, which allows me to offer daytime walks and home visits and give your pets the time and attention they deserve. I’m also available for pet sitting when you’re away! Whether your dog needs a daily walk, a quick home visit for some company and care, or someone to look after them while you’re away, I’d love to help. My goal is to make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, happy, and well cared for. 🐶❤️ Send me a message if you have any questions! I’d love to hear from you. I work part time and create my own schedule, half my work is from home so I am only away for a maximum of 4 hours at a time per day. For walks I typically have availability in the late mornings, afternoons and evenings! I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and individual needs. I carefully follow all care instructions provided by the owner and make sure pets are safe, comfortable, and supervised while in my care. During walks, I’m attentive to my surroundings and always prioritize your pet’s safety. I’m also happy to provide regular updates and photos so you know your pet is happy and well cared for!
“Vitoria was amazing with our two dogs, she kept us informed and we were so happy with her taking them for walks. We will definitely be reaching out again to Vitoria for dog sitting and walking!”

“Cadence is a very sweet and accommodating pet sitter. We left our Maine coon Murphy in good hands when we had her do 2 visits a day with him. Our shy kitty took to her right away and was happy to see her come back each day. Thank you cadence for watching over our little guy and being so lovely to work with. Highly recommend !!”

About: Animals have always been a part of my life, and I’ve cared for cats and dogs for as long as I can remember. Along with raising my own pets, I’ve looked after many friends’ pets while they were away. I’m reliable, patient, and treat every pet like family, providing loving, attentive care tailored to their individual needs, including administering medication when required. As a server with a flexible schedule, I have availability throughout the week and can provide attentive, reliable care for your pets at a variety of times to suit their routine. I provide reliable drop-in visits and dog walks tailored to your pet’s routine. Each visit includes fresh food and water, potty breaks, exercise, playtime, medication if needed, and plenty of love and attention. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages while you’re away.
About: Transform your life with the power of pets! As someone who has overcome a difficult childhood through the comfort of furry friends, I am passionate about sharing the therapeutic benefits of animals. With a lifetime of experience caring for a diverse range of pets, from cats and dogs to exotic creatures like snakes and lizards, I promise to treat your beloved pets like my own. Whatever your fur babies need, we do our absolute best to accommodate to make their stay as enjoyable and comfortable as possible. I understand that some dogs have more energy than others, so we use a baby gate if needed to give everyone a breather so your little loved ones don't get stressed out. We have a high-energy husky that we trained (one of the harder breeds to train), and he is such a good boy. Everyone said potty training him would take 2-4 weeks, and we accomplished it in 7 days by taking him out every 2 hours even during the night. Alarms were set, and out he went. No more puppy pads or accidents in the house at 11 weeks old. If your fur baby is a puppy in need of extra walks for that reason, we are more than happy to help with that. We are able to section off a piece of our living room or kitchen to give senior dogs their own space if needed. Cuddle bugs are always welcome. They will get all the cuddles plus some extra 😊. We do have one set of stairs to our apartment, but if your senior dogs need assistance, I can carry them up and down the stairs; it's not a problem. As well as the administration of any meds they may need. We just need a medication schedule, and away we go. We have a huge park right behind our house for lots of playtime. If you have a high-energy pup I guarantee they will get the stimulation they need. And again, if you have senior dogs that are more laid back, we are set up to make sure everyone is in a comfortable, stress-free environment. We promise to provide the best care and daily updates of your fur babies. They will receive all the love and attention they get at home with you. You can rest assured they are happy and safe. As a pet parent myself, I understand the importance of finding a trustworthy and reliable pet sitter. That's why I've made it my full-time job to provide top-notch care for your pets, giving you peace of mind while you're away. One or both of us are home all day, so your pet will not be left alone for any period of time. In our home, they will have constant supervision. Please experience serenity with your furry friend complete with an inspiring dog and cat-friendly canine companion for ultimate comfort. Accommodation for all pets is our #1 priority, whether it be at your residence or ours. I always like to get down on the ground with your fur babies when I meet them, as this establishes trust. Establishing trust is very important to having a successful stay. We understand all pets have different needs; because there are 2 of us, we strive to provide a stress-free environment for your babies and ensure that your beloved pets will not be left alone for any amount of time.
“Jenna was our first successful foray into having someone come in house to walk, play with, and give our three dogs their mid-day break. They were so happy when we arrived home, and it was seamless and stress free working with her.”

“At first meeting, Cassie asked all the right questions and ensured that she was familiar with our cats and their specific needs. Our home and our pets were well taken care of during our trip away. She sent daily updates with pictures that gave us great peace of mind. We highly recommend Cassie and will be using her again in the future.”

“Victoria is amazing ! My cat is usually timid but Victoria found a way to make her feel comfortable. She sent me updates after each drop in visits which I really appreciated !”

About: Generally, I have grown up surrounded by different animals, including dogs. I used to take our family dog for walks around the block and outside with him a lot. I live with other family who have two medium sized dogs. I talked to them and give them hugs every day and they make me laugh. During the week, my availability varies with more availability on weekends where I am able to dedicate more time to spend with your fur babies. At home, I live with two dogs. They are not my dogs specifically but I will let them outside to let them run around and/or do their business and sometimes I will sit outside with them on the porch and just relax. I am also active in my daily life as I exercise at home and go for long walks everyday down the trail. I like to absorb the nature around me on my walks. It's also a good stress reliever. When I watched over dogs in the past for family members, I would take them for walks, feed them, let them outside, and spend time with them in the house.
About: Although I’m new to professional pet sitting, I bring something just as valuable: genuine love, patience, and dedication to animals. Friends and neighbors have always trusted me with their pets, because they know I treat every furry (or feathered!) friend as if they were my own. I work from home most days, which allows me to provide consistent attention and flexibility for feeding, walks, and companionship. On the three days I commute to the office, I am still available before and after work, while weekends are fully open. This schedule ensures I can reliably meet the needs of pets and give them the care they deserve. I’m meticulous about safety and will keep a close eye on your furry family member at all times. Your pet’s happiness and safety are my top priorities. Whether it’s daily walks, feeding, or just keeping them company, I’ll make sure they feel loved while you’re away.
“Trudy did a fantastic job! The kitties were very well taken care of and they barely knew I was gone. Lol she is a great communicator and was able to send me lots of pictures and video. It makes such a big difference to see those when you’re missing them but can see that they’re good.”

About: I’ve grown up around animals my whole life and have experience caring for pets of all ages, from young puppies to senior animals. I’ve owned and cared for dogs, bunnies, chickens, and geese, so I’m comfortable with different personalities and needs. I’ve also worked alongside dog trainers with my own dogs, which has helped me learn more about handling, behaviour, and building trust with animals. I’m patient, reliable, and genuinely enjoy spending time with pets and making sure they feel safe and comfortable. Pet care fits really naturally into my routine since I genuinely enjoy being around animals. I work part-time at Roots, so I have plenty of time throughout the week for walks, check-ins, playtime, feeding, or overnight care. I’m reliable with routines and happy to work around your pet’s schedule to keep them comfortable and cared for. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I do my best to keep their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I make sure they’re fed on schedule, get plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, and any other care they’re used to. I’m respectful of your home, reliable, and focused on making your pets feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. I also make sure to keep owners updated with messages and photos so you know your pets are doing well.
“Rebeca is amazing! My cat is very shy and she was able to develop trust and get her to spend time with her. I could relax knowing that she was my cat sitter. She timed the visits very well due to some wild weather. I will be hiring her every time I go in holiday. Thanks so much for taking good care of Punko.”

About: Hi! I’m Adrienne. Caring for animals has always been something I genuinely enjoy, whether that’s going for long walks, providing companionship, or making sure they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. I currently own two amazing dogs - a 9-year-old German Shepherd and a 4-year-old Alaskan Malamute mix - so I’m very familiar with caring for large, active breeds and understanding that every dog has their own unique personality and needs. I’m an active, reliable, and organized person who loves spending time outdoors. Whether your dog enjoys leisurely neighbourhood strolls, longer walks on local trails, or simply having someone to keep them company, I’d be happy to help. I have experience with dog walking, pet sitting, and caring for both dogs and cats, and I always treat every pet as if they were my own. My goal is to give you peace of mind while providing your pets with the love, attention, and care they deserve. I can’t wait to meet you and your furry family members! I work for myself in Almonte so my schedule can (sometimes) be flexible! I work Tuesday - Saturday primarily and my days off are Sundays & Mondays. Fenced yard, non fenced yard, near water, crate trained, not crate trained, dog parks, walking in group, walking alone….. I’m confident in whatever makes your pet the most comfortable and happy.

About: Hello nice to meet you! My name is Carissa Fairweather and I am currently offering petsitting (my home or yours) and/or dog walking in Smiths Falls! Im currently the proud pet mom to a 5 year old medium bull mastiff mix and 3 adorable cats. I have also owned guinea pigs, skinny pigs, rabbits, and fish. Ever since I can remember I’ve had a strong passion for animals and will soon be attending school for Veterinary Technician.

About: Long before petsitting became a commoditized business, Debbie Ozarko was on the Ottawa scene bringing joy to the lives of dogs and their people with her dog walking service, "We Take the Dogs Out" in 2000. This eventually morphed into, "It’s a Ruff Life Doggie Daycare" which thrived until her move to the British Columbia coast in 2013. Her love for such beautiful intimacy with animals has only deepened over time, and with her return to the Ottawa area she is eager to offer her exceptional services once again. Debbie is also a long-time volunteer with the Rideau Valley Wildlife Sanctuary and the IFAW Northern Dogs Project. Animals truly are her life. Debbie brings it back to what is most meaningful for all: respect, integrity and generosity of spirit—for you, and for your furry, fuzzy and feathered animal companions. Animals are my life! It doesn't matter if they are residents are not, they are all treated with love, kindness, respect, and compassion. My schedule is constructed around their needs first. I have access to several quiet areas where field, forest and streams abound for off-leash romps. If dogs are better with on-leash walks, I'm happy to take them to green spaces where they have access to lots of sniffing to satiate that deep primal canine need. I also provide healthy, grain-free treats...just because. Of course, I offer only these with your approval beforehand.

Cadence took care of our 2 cats for a few days while we were away. The cats seemed happy upon our return. Cadence was feeling ill for a couple of days while taking care of them and even mentioned that she wiped down all surfaces she touched so we wouldn't catch what she had! Thoughtful!
