Ashley was phenomenal with our two crazy dogs. She fed them, took them for potty breaks and kept them company while we were out of the house. Ashley calmed the dogs down quickly and bonded with them instantly. Definitely recommend!!

This was our dog's first overnight stay with a new sitter, and Michelle did an amazing job! She was caring, attentive, and made both us and our pup feel completely comfortable. We couldn’t be happier and would highly recommend her!

Bette- Joe was amazing. I had to find a sitter last minute which was a scary thing to do as we normally do a meet and greet first so this was tough. We had a phone call the day before and she immediately put my mind at rest as she was great. On arrival at my house she sent me lots of photos of the pups and you could clearly see that they loved their time with her. Highly recommended!

Laura (and her partner, Nick) took wonderful care of my anxious dog, Luna. Laura provided daily updates, administered Luna’s anxiety medication, and carefully followed the routines and protocols we have in place for her separation anxiety. It gave me great peace of mind knowing Luna was well cared for and genuinely loved. Luna enjoys spending time with Laura and Nick whenever I’m away. I highly recommend Laura to anyone looking for a caring, reliable dog sitter, especially if you have an anxious pup!

About: I have loved and taken care of animals since age 10 - when I welcomed my first bunny for my 10th birthday. Since then I have also taken care of hamsters, birds, dogs, and cats. I am an expert in providing an environment where they can be comfortable and profusely loved, but I do not forget firm discipline where necessary. I am fully available on weekends for walks, drop-ins, and house sitting but I do require at least a 2-day notice. Additionally, I am available for walks and drop-ins all weekday evenings, anytime after 7 PM. At my client's home I have the best practices of pet- and property-handling honed down, which will keep both the client's pet(s) and property (as well as myself) safe and happy at all times. I trust that I will be provided with all the information I need to satisfy any expectations from my hosts during my visits. At my own home, I have two cats, but I have enough space and accommodations to keep my client's pet(s) separated and happy as necessary.

Selena was great! She kept us well informed throughout her stay with Margot, also being proactive in her communication when it seemed Margot wasn’t feeling 100%. Selena also left our house in amazing shape upon leaving!

Lisa was an amazing dog sitter! She is highly professional and very trustworthy. I felt completely at ease leaving my border collie Gus in her hands because of all of her experience. She provided updates and sent pictures, and thoroughly followed the outline of Gus' daily routine. I highly recommend Lisa, and I would definitely recommend her to anyone!

Amy was great. Kasper really seemed to like her. He’s usually a little hesitant with people. I think he’s made a new friend. Bentley well he’s Bentley. Haha. I heard that he did warm up to Amy and became friends. I recommend Amy. My guys are sometimes scared of everything and she made them feel comfortable. I really enjoyed that they could stay home and I didn’t need to send them to a doggy hotel l, which is usually stressful for them. When I got home. My boys were happy and my home was well taken care of. I will be asking Amy to watch the boys again. I highly recommend her.

About: I have three years of experience caring for both dogs and cats, including traveling for in-home pet sitting assignments. Being entrusted with pets in their own environment has strengthened my sense of responsibility, consistency, and attention to detail. I’ve worked with a wide range of temperaments and energy levels, which has taught me how to manage behavioral challenges calmly and adapt to each animal’s specific needs. I’m confident handling unexpected situations and responding appropriately in urgent or emergency circumstances. My priority is always to provide safe, reliable, and attentive care. I’ve cared for multiple pets within the same household, including siblings ranging from puppies to senior dogs. Managing different ages at once has strengthened my ability to adapt to varying energy levels, routines, and care requirements. I understand the patience needed for young dogs and the attentiveness required for seniors, and I’m confident in providing balanced, consistent care for each stage of life. Pet care fits perfectly into my routine in the evenings and for overnight stays. I’m available for consistent check-ins, feeding, playtime, and making sure pets feel comfortable and settled. I’m reliable with timing and enjoy ending my day caring for animals in a calm, attentive way. I care for pets in my client’s home by maintaining their normal routine so they feel safe and comfortable in their own space. I follow all instructions closely, including feeding schedules, litter cleaning, playtime, and any special care needs. I’m respectful of the home, keep everything clean, and provide updates so owners feel at ease while they’re away. I focus on creating a calm, trusting environment for each pet.

Sherry stayed overnight in our home for 7+ days to care for our senior cat Muni. We previously had a bad experience with Rover, so I was very cautious about working with a cat sitter again. Sherry was easy to communicate with and kept us updated with photos and videos. Muni looked so happy and affectionate, and warmed up to Sherry right away. She followed instructions, got our mail and even watered our plants. When we got back, our home looked just like we left it. Thank you for caring for Muni!

This was my first time booking Jessica to house-sit and take care of my dog while I was away on a 10-day vacation. She was incredibly professional, reliable, and clearly has a natural connection with animals—my dog absolutely loved her and even missed her after she left! I came home to a spotless house and a happy, healthy pup. I would definitely recommend Jessica!

About: As a seasoned Husky owner with over four years of experience, I bring a wealth of knowledge and skills to the table. I prioritize creating a safe, stimulating, and nurturing environment for every dog under my care, ensuring they receive the attention and support they need to thrive. Every day starts with my Husky, Duke — breakfast, washroom, and playing around my backyard to get his energy out. Throughout the day, we go on walks, play fetch, or just relax together. Because I’m self-employed and work from home, I have the flexibility and time to dedicate to your pup’s needs. Whether that means sticking to their feeding and walking schedule, making sure they get enough exercise, or giving them extra love and attention, I’ll make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for — just like Duke does at home. At my home, dogs join the routine I already have with my Husky, Duke — regular walks, playtime, and plenty of company since I work from home. I have a large fenced yard for running, a sunny deck for lounging, and an open basement that can be used as a safe separate space if needed. When I’m in your home, I’ll stick to the routine your dog knows best, so they feel comfortable and cared for. My goal is simple: a happy, safe pup while you’re away

About: I have worked as a veterinarian assistant and am very caring and loving toward animals. I am a gentle spirit and consider myself an animal lover. I have a flexible schedule and can adjust to suit the clients needs. If we agree on availability times you can be rest assured I can be relied upon. I have many trails around my house for walking and live in a basement apartment with no yard. I am not suited for long term or big dog boarding but will accommodate in specific circumstances.

About: I have been the proud pup parent to a beagle and currently a shitzu. Patience is well built in to my nature! I enjoy taking dogs out on walks, cuddles on the couch, and watching them explore my fenced yard. A natural dog lover at heart, I have hosted short term and long term stays and they are always happy to return to my home (sometimes they don’t even want to leave!) I work from home and able to provide loving care and supervision. I’ll ensure your dog is well taken care of in my air conditioned home where they can choose which dog bed to lounge on, toy to play with, front window ledge to sit on & watch the birds or chase squirrels in my yard. I will care for your pet as my own. I’d like a clear understanding of known allergies, fears (ie. vacuum, fireworks) anxious behaviour & feeding routine. I’ll follow your dog rules as best as possible, but my dog is used to sharing lots of treats lol
