“Shelby was awesome and will 100% use again. She house sat my two large dogs and they seem to have loved her being here! She was extremely communicative and responsive and very flexible when we had to change dates at a months notice. House was clean on return and she is trustworthy. Very relived to have found a good pet sitter”

“Matthew was awesome with our babies and they looked happy so that was a good sign. He paid attention to them and played with them so we are happy about that. Definitely recommend him for sure and I will definitely book him on our future hose sitting for our pets”

“Lisa was incredible. She cared for my four dogs as if they were her own — attentive, warm, and genuinely invested in their well-being. She kept me updated with thoughtful messages and photos throughout my trip, giving me complete peace of mind. Though walking them wasn’t expected, she went above and beyond to make sure they were happy and active. Lisa is truly reliable, compassionate, and trustworthy — I wouldn’t hesitate to have her back.”

About: For the past 6 years, I’ve raised a Labrador retriever since he was a puppy, cared for dogs as if they were my own. I truly believe pets are family, and they deserve to feel safe, loved, and understood — especially when their owners are away. I have experience with energetic puppies who need patience and gentle training guidance, as well as senior dogs who require a slower pace, extra comfort, and attentive care. I take time to learn each dog’s personality, routines, and little quirks so they feel secure and happy in my care. My goal is simple: allow dogs to sniff & have fun during walks, tire them for good sleep & keep the tails wagging. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. I structure my schedule to ensure dogs receive consistent attention, regular walks, playtime, and quiet rest periods. I enjoy starting and ending my day with walks and check-ins, so your dog gets steady care rather than rushed visits. Because I plan my week around the pets I’m caring for, I’m able to maintain their routines as closely as possible — feeding times, exercise, medication (if needed), and lots of affection. Caring for dogs isn’t something I “fit in” — it’s something I genuinely prioritize and enjoy. I have a fenced backyard & a very friendly Labrador Retriever dog ready to play & we provide a safe, calm, and structured environment in my home where dogs feel comfortable and cared for. I follow each dog’s regular routine as closely as possible — including feeding schedules, walk times, play sessions, and rest periods — so they feel secure and settled. For boarding and daycare, I make sure dogs get a healthy balance of exercise, mental stimulation, and quiet time. I’m attentive to their body language and personality, whether they’re energetic and playful or need a slower, gentler pace. During walks, I focus on safety, leash manners, and giving them a positive, enjoyable experience. Most importantly, I treat every dog like family and provide regular updates and photos so you always feel connected and at ease.

About: I bring over three years of hands-on experience working at an animal hospital, combined with volunteer work at therapeutic riding programs and other animal care organizations. This background has given me a strong understanding of animal behavior, health, and compassionate handling. Whether it’s energetic walks or calm, cozy sitting sessions, I’m dedicated to providing safe, reliable, and loving care. I treat every pet like family, ensuring they feel comfortable, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. I offer up to two walks per day on weekdays—one in the morning before work and one in the evening after work—to keep your pup happy and active. On Saturdays, I’m available for one or two walks depending on my schedule, and on Sundays, I have full availability to provide multiple walks and extra attention. I’m committed to fitting quality exercise and care into your pet’s day, even with my busy schedule, so they feel loved and energized while you’re away. When caring for pets in their own home, I prioritize maintaining their usual routine to keep them comfortable and happy. Whether it’s feeding, playtime, walks, or cuddles, I follow your specific instructions closely. I ensure a safe environment, lots of attention, and companionship so your pet feels loved and secure while you’re away. My goal is to provide care that feels just like you never left. With sitting, we can discuss availability and flexibility to accommodate for your pet and family needs.

“We thoroughly enjoyed having Katherine house/pet sit, she is truly very attentive and gave our dog and cat lots of attention. They seemed to really love her, they were both less anxious about us being away. Katherine sent regular updates including pictures and we feel she really went above and beyond ! We will definitely be booking her again.”

About: I love dogs and going on long walks; it’s the best of both worlds! I have worked with dogs of various ages, energy levels, and behaviour. Whether your dog likes to run, play, and walk for hours, or just likes to chill with a pal, I got it! I have worked with puppies and older dogs, reactive dogs when other dogs are near, feeding dogs medication, beep collars, crate-trained dogs, etc. I’d love to meet your fur-friends, learn more about them, and will happily accompany them on walks and play time! I am currently working part-time, more so in the evenings, so I have plenty of time from early mornings til 2-4 that I can walk your pups and provide pet care. As it is only part-time, I am still able to work evenings sometimes! I am in school from Sept.-April, therefore I have plenty of time for long walks and pet care now and am available to be your daily morning dog-walker! I do not offer pet care in my home, although am able to provide pet care in a clients home! All of my pet care experience has been in other people’s homes, whether it was dropping in for a potty break, quick walk, or a long walk, even last minute! I have also provided pet care staying overnight in a client’s home for a minimum of 1 night-2.5 weeks. I may not be able to get time off of my part-time job when staying in a client’s home so I hope it is okay if I am gone for 4-8 hours in the evening for a couple of the evenings, if it falls on the days I am scheduled. I have always made sure to time out feeding and walks according to my work schedule when needed.

“Toby really enjoyed his time with Rachel. He wants her to come back soon!”

About: With over 10 years of experience caring for dogs, I provide a safe, loving, and reliable environment where every dog is treated like family. I understand that each dog has a unique personality and routine, so I take the time to provide personalized care, whether it’s an energetic puppy, an adult dog, or a senior companion. I’m patient, attentive, and comfortable administering oral medications, following feeding schedules, providing regular exercise, and giving plenty of affection. I keep pet parents updated with photos and messages, so they can feel confident their furry family member is happy, safe, and well cared for while they’re away. My goal is to make every dog’s stay as comfortable and stress-free as possible. 🐾 Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, allowing me to provide consistent attention and care throughout the day. I plan my schedule to ensure pets receive timely feedings, walks (for dogs), playtime, companionship, and any medications they may need. I enjoy spending quality time with animals and make their comfort and well-being a priority. Whether it’s weekdays or weekends, I’m committed to providing reliable, attentive care and keeping pet parents updated with photos and messages so they can have peace of mind while they’re away. 🐾 I provide personalized care based on each pet’s routine, personality, and needs. In my home, I create a clean, safe, and calm environment where pets receive plenty of attention, playtime, exercise (for dogs), fresh water, regular meals, and a comfortable place to rest. In a client’s home, I carefully follow their instructions to maintain the pet’s normal routine, including feeding, walks, litter box cleaning, playtime, medication (if needed), and lots of love and companionship. I also keep owners updated with photos and messages, so they always know their pet is safe, happy, and well cared for. 🐾

About: I've had dogs since I was 16. I see our pets as family and our little soulmates. Animals of all kinds have always been drawn to me, and I feel really comfortable looking after them. Would love to meet up and talk more about how I can provide you with the best service. Always open to feedback and advice! Let's make of this experience a great one for both you and me 😊 I'm currently working part time, and my schedule is flexible. I am a mom as well but my kiddos are big now. Would love to meet and care for your family member. I will take them for walks, feed them, clean and refresh water bowls & follow your guidelines. Also keep you updated on our adventures along the way!

“Fantastic experience! Our dogs were well cared for all weekend, and we appreciated the updates and photos. Reliable, kind, and easy to work with—would definitely book again.”

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is the amount of care and attention I give to every dog. I’ve always had a love for dogs and genuinely enjoy spending time with them, whether that’s going on walks, playing, or just keeping them company. I have a chocolate lab who is six years old and my best friend. I’m also very reliable, patient, and understand how important it is for owners to feel comfortable leaving their pets with someone they trust. I’ll always make sure your dog feels safe, cared for, and treated like family. I am available to care for your pet right in the comfort of your home, making things easier and stress-free for both you and your pet. I care for pets in my client’s home by following their normal routine as closely as possible to help the pet feel comfortable and stress-free. I make sure they are fed on schedule, given fresh water, and get plenty of exercise, attention, and playtime. I also follow any specific instructions provided, including medications or special care needs. My goal is to keep the pet safe, happy, and relaxed in their familiar environment while their owner is away.

“We were so happy with Lauryn’s care of our pets while we were away. She kept us updated throughout her stay, which gave us such peace of mind. Our pets were well looked after, and it was clear they were in good hands. Our house was also spotless when we returned.We would definitely have Lauryn stay again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter.”

About: I've had dogs and cats for as long as I can remember, so caring for animals has always been part of my life. Growing up, we always had pets in the family, and over the years I've cared for everything from puppies and kittens to senior pets with more specialized needs. I've also pet sat for neighbours, relatives, and coworkers, both paid and unpaid. What I enjoy most about pet sitting is getting to know each animal's personality. Every pet is different, and I like figuring out what each one enjoys most! Different dogs find joy in exploring trails for hours, while others prefer activities like tug-of-war, chasing balls, or sniffing every tree on the block. Some cats immediately curl up beside you when you arrive, whereas others prefer to watch from afar until they're ready for a greeting. I enjoy meeting each of them on their own terms. Over the years, I've gained experience with puppy training, recall, enrichment, senior care, and administering oral, liquid, topical, eye, and ear medications. I've also cared for pets with anxiety, seizure disorders, blindness, deafness, and reactivity, so I understand how important patience, routine, and consistency are. The biggest reason I'm on Rover is simple. I genuinely love being around animals. Since moving away for university, one of the things I've missed most is having pets as part of my everyday life. Spending time with them doesn't feel like a job to me; it's something I look forward to. My goal is to make sure your pet feels comfortable, safe, and cared for while you're away, and to give you peace of mind knowing they're in good hands. I currently have open availability throughout the summer, so I have plenty of flexibility to work around your pet's routine. Whether it's walks, drop-in visits, or overnight house sitting, I'm happy to provide the time and attention your pet deserves. During the school year, my schedule becomes a little more structured around my university classes, but I'll always keep my calendar up to date and only accept bookings that I know I can fully commit to. My goal is to keep your pet's routine as normal as possible while you're away. Before a booking, I like to learn about their schedule, favourite activities, training cues, and any medical or behavioural needs so I can care for them the way they're used to. I believe each pet is unique, so I customize my care to suit their personality and comfort level. I always make sure to listen carefully to what they need, making them feel loved and understood. If I'm staying in your home, I'm happy to bring in mail, water plants, and keep things tidy while you're away. I'll also send regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pet is happy and doing well. At this time, I offer walks, drop-in visits, and house sitting. I do not offer boarding.
