I have a 13 year old Australian Shepherd with high anxiety and Lori was wonderful with him from the moment she met him at our meet and greet. I felt comfortable knowing he was in good hands while we were away. Lori sent updates via text with photos and video. Highly recommend!

We were away for a week. Arrived home to very happy dogs and a clean house. Could not ask for a better sitter for your dogs. We have 2 active boxer pups and Ross was wonderful with them. They will miss him. Our flight was delayed and Ross had no problem accommodating another overnight. Made our vacation that much more enjoyable knowing the dogs were well looked after and happy. We had daily updates with pictures. We will be using Ross again and the dogs will be excited to have him. Thank you Ross!

Louise was amazing minding our 2 dogs overnight at our home, we had a trip planned for months and a sitter let us down last minute. On short notice Louise cancelled her own social event to help us out! Moving forward she will be our go to sitter, best we have found on Rover to date.

Cleah did a wonderful job handling Jerry's medical emergency and communicated every update with us. She took him back and forth to the vet and cleaned up all his vomit and took care of him as best she could. She helped reschedule our house sitting reservation so I could come home early from vaacation to take care of Jerry myself. 10/10 would recommend Cleah.

About: My experience in veterinary medicine, animal care, and behavior has given me a strong understanding of cats' unique needs, personalities, and medical requirements. I am comfortable caring for cats of all ages, from energetic kittens to senior cats requiring extra attention and medication. I also have experience recognizing subtle feline body language and stress signals, helping me provide care that is both compassionate and respectful of each cat's comfort level. As a Fear Free Certified professional, I prioritize creating a calm, low-stress environment and am experienced working with shy, anxious, reactive, or otherwise sensitive cats. Whether your cat is social and outgoing or prefers their own space, I adapt my approach to ensure they feel safe and comfortable while you're away. I recently transitioned to a casual position at Lady Hammond Animal Hospital after working there full-time for nearly two years. This change has given me the flexibility and free time to dedicate to caring for your beloved pets and providing them with the attention they deserve. My passion for animal care began long before my veterinary experience, with previous work in dog daycare and grooming environments. What I enjoy most is building relationships with animals and helping them feel happy, fulfilled, and comfortable while their families are away. I have always loved spending time outdoors and staying active. After the loss of my own dog last October, I found myself missing the companionship and joy that comes from sharing walks and adventures with a furry friend. Now that I have the time and availability, I've made it my mission to help provide that experience for pets whose owners may need an extra hand with exercise, enrichment, and companionship. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, outdoor adventures, playtime, or simply having a caring and knowledgeable companion nearby, I'm happy to tailor my care to their individual needs. With a flexible schedule and a genuine love for animals, I'm always ready for the next adventure. I have extensive experience handling dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments, allowing me to tailor each walk to your dog's individual needs—whether they prefer an energetic adventure, a leisurely stroll, or something in between. My goal is to ensure every outing is safe, enriching, and enjoyable. I drive a spacious SUV with plenty of room to safely transport pets to appropriate exercise and enrichment locations, as well as provide reliable transportation to and from veterinary appointments if needed. I am comfortable caring for pets with a wide range of personalities and needs, from independent animals who require quiet time and space to decompress, to affectionate "Velcro pets" who thrive on constant companionship and attention. My background in animal behavior helps me recognize body language and stress signals, allowing me to adapt my care and provide accommodations that support each pet's comfort and well-being. I am also experienced with a variety of feeding routines and dietary requirements, including veterinary prescription diets, medication administration, food allergies and sensitivities, and raw feeding protocols. I understand the importance of maintaining your pet's established routine and will ensure they receive consistent, attentive care while you're away.

Jacques stay at our house to look after our two golden retrievers, Daisy and Rufus, and our bearded dragon, Spike. He did a wonderful job maintaining the dogs’ comfortable daily routine, and we really appreciated the daily updates that showed how well everyone was doing. When we got home, the dogs were happy, calm, and perfectly themselves— a good sign of the quality care they received. It was so reassuring to know they were in capable hands while we were away. We would absolutely recommend Jacques to anyone looking for a reliable, thoughtful pet sitter, and would be very happy to have him back again.

So grateful Sarah was available to stay with Parker and MJ! This was the second time house/pet sitting for us. She also saved me big time as I didn’t plan my booking properly to coordinate with the travel needed to get home from Nfld. It ended up in a last minute asked if she could extend care for one more night. Thank Sarah! Parker and MJ had a great time I’m sure. 💛

I treat every pet like family and create a loving, stress-free environment where they can relax and be themselves.

About: I have had dogs my whole life from puppies to seniors to rescues. I have experience with all different types of personalities and preferences.

About: I’ve always loved animals and have enjoyed caring for them since I was a child which has led me down a career path in veterinary medicine. I’ve owned large breeds and small breeds, and currently a Pomeranian who likes to be carried more than walked! I am a registered veterinary technician at Burnside Veterinary Hospital with additional volunteer experience prior to completing my education. I live a very active lifestyle and love to bring my pets along with me for my adventures! My experience in veterinary medicine will ensure your dog is safe and healthy under my supervision:) I currently work full time Monday-Friday. My evenings are typically free after 4pm and weekends are open as well. I do have one morning off per week, typically a Wednesday or Friday. Unfortunately I am not able to host pets in my home due to my building having a no pet policy. However I like to have active communication with clients to ensure I have a full and detailed understanding of their pets needs and routine. Curating lists and schedules based off of pet and owner preferences is ideal to give proper care to their animal(s).

About: I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life and genuinely enjoy caring for them. I’ve had experience with both small and large breeds, including Pomeranians, German Shepherds, and Huskies, so I’m comfortable with different energy levels and needs. I treat every dog like my own and make sure they’re safe, happy, and well cared for I’m a full-time student with a flexible schedule, especially during the summer when I have wide availability. Even during the school year, I maintain a consistent routine and have plenty of time throughout the day to provide attentive, reliable care. Pet care is a priority for me, so I’m committed to being dependable and responsive. I provide a safe, attentive environment with plenty of supervision. While my yard is not fenced, all outdoor time is closely monitored and dogs are always kept on leash to ensure their safety. I also have a friendly, active dog who can provide companionship if your pet enjoys being around other dogs. I’m able to crate dogs if needed for comfort or routine, and I always prioritize each dog’s individual needs to keep them safe, comfortable, and happy.

Our family had a wonderful experience with June. Our dog, Koa, can be slightly reactive, and June was so patient and confident with her — she was clearly very happy and enjoyed plenty of walks and adventures while we were away. Our cat also seemed very content and comfortable spending time with her. A few. happy kitty! Coming home to a clean and well-cared-for home was such a nice bonus after our trip. June was reliable, caring, and attentive, and we felt very at ease knowing our pets and home were in good hands. We would absolutely recommend her and wouldn’t hesitate to have her back again when needed.
