“We just cannot thank Elizabeth (Jayne) enough for all the love and attention she gave our old boy, Jack while we were away on vacation. Jayne was happy to be in touch with us and regularly sent pics and videos. Jack doesn’t always do well without us, but he settled in quickly and absolutely loved all the walks, love and attention he got at Jayne’s house! Jack is diabetic so it was such a relief knowing that Jayne had lots of experience giving insulin too. We will most definitely be calling Jayne again! Thank you, Jayne!”
“I can’t thank Vicki and her family enough for taking wonderful care of my 1 year old puppy, Daisy, while I was away for the long weekend! From the moment I met them, I felt at ease knowing she would be with such caring people. They provided her with plenty of playtime, walks, attention, love, made a special effort to stick to her routine, while also training! I'm walking a different pup these days. Just amazing bonuses! I also received updates and adorable photos that reassured me she was happy and well-loved. When I picked her up, Daisy was thriving and clearly had a great time! I highly recommend this amazing family to anyone in need of a loving pet sitter. Thank you again for everything!”
“Wonderful experience. We needed a sitter on a moment’s notice and we were well received. Our zeus had a wonderful playdate had plenty of activity and we picked him up all smiles. Highly recommend.”
“My pup is a nervous, skittish rescue who needs a lot of love and patience. Jessica was able to accommodate her needs, making sure that she was eating and drinking despite her resistance. Her dog, Snow, was friendly and I could see her dog and mine hanging out together in the photos and videos she sent. Jessica was very accommodating for drop off and pick up times when plans didn’t quite go my way. I’m glad to have found someone close by who I can trust for future stays!”
“Allyson and her family were absolutely fabulous with Chica\! From the very beginning, Allyson’s communication was stellar—she was incredibly responsive, kind, and so accommodating, especially when I had to make last\-minute changes to drop\-off and pick\-up times\. They sent me lots of pictures throughout Chica’s stay, which gave me so much peace of mind knowing she was happy and well cared for\. It was such a wonderful experience from start to finish, and I’ve already booked Chica’s next stay with Allyson and her family\! I highly recommend them to anyone looking for a loving, trustworthy, and caring home for their pet\. 🐾❤️”
“Nicole was so great at updating us enough that we felt content with how amazing the boys were being cared for, but not too much that I was thinking about them all the time. She was very professional, and just a 10/10 sitter. The boys were instantly so comfortable with her, and got many sweet cuddles.”
“Mohina provided excellent service and took such good care of our fur baby. We highly recommend and will definitely rebook with her for any future needs. Thanks also to Coco and Chanel for being amazing new playmates to Oliver.”
“Marta was our first sitter since moving to Peterborough and what a find! Great meet-and-greet, reliable communication and awesome updates throughout the day. My dog was in loving hands and I had peace of mind while she was in Marta’s care.”
“Jasmine went out of her way to come into town to Pick up Joni from my work, as I was running late! Joni was LOVED and had so much FUN! I had no hesitations to Leave her with Jasmine, this is the first time since I loathe my dog May that I have trusted anyone with Joni’s care! SUPER job Jasmine! I will see you in The fall!”
“Christine is a very warm, very friendly caring person and it was obvious from the moment she met our two dogs they would be in wonderful hands with her! One of our dogs is very shy, yet she took to Christine very quickly. Their home is perfect in terms of the layout and with a fenced back yard. Christine sent us photos over the 3 day period and is very responsive in her replies. One of our dogs is challenged to navigate stairs however Christine had a gate to prevent her from going up the stairs and potentially hurting herself. We would definitely book Christine again to care for our two dogs!!”

“Highly recommend Anhi! She’s very caring, sent me regular updates and took good care of our senior dog Bella. She is on a special diet and has many quirks for senior lady that some may not wish to handle. Anhi fit her schedule around our last minute booking, shifted things around to accommodate us and took great care of Bella. We’re so thankful and would use her services again! Highly recommend!”

About: *Calendar shows general availability but I must meet you and your pet prior to booking! No bookings are guaranteed until we have had a meet and greet. Rates are high to reflect the app's fees and are only for the first walk.* I have been a professional self-employed dog walker for over 15 years. I am currently seeking new pups for group walks, private walks, puppy visits and boarding in my home on a select basis this winter. Also available and experienced in drop in care for cats and other small pets. Check me out on Instagram cheesedogs.po :) I am a full time dog walker and pet sitter through the winter. I currently have space in my afternoon group walk for the right dog(s), and I have a lot of availability in mornings, midday, and late afternoons for private walks, puppy visits, and cat care. My dog walks are exclusively on leash. The afternoon pack plays off-leash in a secure, fenced in yard and then we have a leashed walk together. I train dogs to walk loose leash. For boarding, dogs must be small dog friendly and have zero prey drive. They must sleep in a crate but are free to roam my apartment when I am home to supervise. We always use leashes for pee breaks and walks from my home.
About: I have enjoyed taking care of dogs and other pets from a young age. I like getting to know the unique qualities of each animal and enjoy providing an enriching environment full of activities for the active dog, or a quiet, calm space for the pets who take more time to settle in. Caring for, and socializing, puppies over a summer was one of the most memorable pet care times, as a family member was preparing to find homes for a litter. I'm currently off work for the summer and have lots of flexibility to care for your pets for overnight stays, walks, or drop in visits to your home. I have a fenced backyard and a park across the road with lots of walking trails around to accomodate all the needs or your furry friend. We do also have 1 friendly cat in the home.
