Danielle was wonderful with our two cats! One of our cats takes daily medications, and she was gentle and persistent :) to make sure he got all of his meds. Her compassion for animals is evident, and I wouldn’t hesitate to contact her again.

Sarah was great and on short notice as well. My dog Petra seemed to really enjoy her company, they played and went for a walk. Sarah was a lifeline for me at the very last minute and I will definitely reach out to her again thank you, Sarah.

Katie visited my cats every day, gave them food, water and cleaned their litter box. She provided detailed reports daily along with the pictures, so I didn’t have to worry. The cats did well. Katie also put recycle boxes outside when the collection was due, which was very helpful.

About: I have been taking care of pets around my neighbourhood when they go away for a vacation, a short trip or just need me to pop in to check on them. I have looked after older cats with disability’s and also dogs aged 6 to senior ages. I love animals more then people so you know your furry friends will be taken care of like they are my own. I am currently working full time but would love to walk or check in on your pups while I’m home or have a day off. Anything that the owner needs I will accommodate. I have had clients in the past who’s pets needed medication at a certain time and there is no problem following these expectations.

About: I’ve been caring for animals since I was 12 years old and grew up surrounded by dogs my entire life. Over the years, I’ve also cared for a chameleon, hamster, and ferret, which gave me experience with a wide range of pet needs and personalities. I adopted my dog Maia 3 years ago, and she’s full of energy with a big personality, which has taught me a lot about active dogs, structure, and keeping playtime both fun and safe. I also adopted my cat when I was 20. She was very feisty, and no one else wanted to handle her, but I built a strong bond with her over time. We also went through a lot together, including managing her diabetes, so I’m very comfortable and experienced with giving medication and administering insulin injections when needed. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I always aim to provide calm, attentive, and loving care so every animal feels safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away❤️ Pet care is already a natural part of my daily life. I'm currently working remote so my schedule is fairly flexible. I’m also experienced with more specific care, including administering medication and injections when needed, so I’m comfortable adjusting routines based on each pet’s requirements. Overall, I’m very organized and flexible, and I genuinely enjoy having animals as part of my everyday routine rather than it feeling like an extra task. In my home, pets are treated like part of the family and kept in a calm, safe, and structured environment. I have a fenced-in backyard where dogs can run, play, and get energy out safely, along with regular walks and supervised outdoor time. I follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, exercise needs, and any special care instructions. In a client’s home, I respect their space and make sure pets feel secure in their familiar environment.

My first time using this app and I'm so impressed by her! I booked super late notice yet she got me in. My dog Queso loved her. She played with him inside and out, took him potty, and took AMAZING pictures with great feedback. She calmed my nerves with how amazing she is. I will deff be re booking her in the future. Very professional and even stayed later to ensure he got his full time! Thanks again!

About: I’ve been around dogs all my life and am super attentive to their every needs. I just love being around them so much and am known by friends and family as an over the top dog lover and owner in the best way possible! I am free most days and spend most of my days prioritizing being around dogs of some sort, be it going to dog sanctuaries or just taking care of my own dog :) I am not only attentive towards dogs and their wellbeing but I am also very attentive towards people’s belongings as I would want others to do the same. I am also very big on making sure the dog has comfort no matter what be it making sure they have their favourite toy with them or just being affectionate to them.

Sara and Cody are incredible people who took amazing care of my fur baby. Charlotte was very well cared for, and Sara truly went above and beyond to make sure she was happy, comfortable, and loved. I couldn't have asked for better care, and I highly recommend them!

Tanya was absolutely amazing! We were away for a week, and I felt completely comfortable knowing she was taking care of my three cats with as much love and attention as I do. One of my older babies, Bailey, struggles with constipation and usually won’t poop normally when I’m away due to stress. Sometimes we have to give her special medication to help her, and she can be fussy about taking it. Tanya handled the situation so well. I honestly don’t even know how to thank her enough. She gave her the necessary medication, monitored her closely to make sure she was pooping again, and even arrived earlier on some days just to ensure everything was okay with my kitties. I felt so relaxed knowing she was the one caring for them, and I was truly able to enjoy my vacation. She is incredible, and I will absolutely continue using her services going forward!

About: Dogs have always been a huge part of my life, and caring for them is something I truly enjoy. I love getting outside for walks, playing, exploring, and giving dogs plenty of attention and affection. I’m comfortable with dogs of different personalities and energy levels, from playful and adventurous pups to those who prefer a slower stroll and lots of cuddles. My goal is for every dog in my care to feel happy, loved, and safe. Working shift work, my schedule varies from week to week—but that also gives me flexibility on my days off! I keep my Rover calendar updated with my current availability and am happy to work with pet parents to find times that fit their needs. I’m especially happy to accommodate walks and drop-in visits when I’m off work. I know how much trust it takes to leave your beloved pet in someone else’s care. I take that responsibility seriously! I’ll treat your pup like family, while making sure they’re safe, comfortable, supervised, and having a great time. I’m attentive to each dog’s individual needs and follow their normal routines as closely as possible. I’m also respectful of your home and will always leave things clean and just as I found them. Most importantly, I want you to feel confident that your pet is in caring, dependable hands while you’re away. 🐾❤️

Nicole was absolutely fantastic! She went above and beyond for us and we couldn’t be more grateful for all her help during our trip out of town. She truly calmed all our worries and our cat loved her and will most definitely be rebooking her in the future.

About: I have hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats through overnight stays, drop-in visits and dog walking. I’ve cared for pets with many different personalities, from energetic and playful to shy, nervous and anxious. I’m patient and take the time to let each pet become comfortable with me at their own pace. I follow their regular routines, including feeding, walks, potty breaks, playtime and lots of love and attention. I especially love seeing a shy/anxious pet begin to trust me and become my little shadow. Building relationships with pets and having families trust me to care for them again is one of my favourite parts of pet sitting. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. As a kindergarten educator, I’m available for morning visits before work, evenings, weekends, holidays, and overnight stays during the school year. During the summer, I have much greater flexibility and am available throughout the day, allowing me to accommodate a wider range of schedules and your pet’s routine. I plan my schedule carefully to ensure every pet receives the time, attention, and loving care they deserve. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being are always my top priorities. I believe pets are happiest in the comfort of their own home, where they can maintain their familiar routine and surroundings. I take the time to get to know each pet’s personality, needs, and preferences so I can provide calm, personalized care tailored to them. Before any booking, I offer a free Meet & Greet so we can get to know each other, discuss your pet’s routine, and ensure we’re the right fit for one another. I also ask all pet parents to complete a detailed intake form, which helps me learn about your pet’s routine, medical needs, preferences, and any special instructions so I can provide the best care possible. For dog walking clients, I also like to do a short practice walk so your dog can get comfortable with me before our first scheduled walk. I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages throughout each visit, so you can have peace of mind knowing your furry family member is in caring, trustworthy hands.

About: I have owned a dog for five and a half years, crate trained my aunts puppy when she first got her, volunteered at the humane society which included fostering puppies, and have received my animal care certification from Sheridan College I am looking to make this a full time job, however I do have a part time job currently so my availability will depend on my work schedule. I have lots of energy to play with your dog(s). I can easily crate them if needed and have had my fair share of experience with shy/standoff-ish dogs so I have endless patience to gain their trust. Any rules/routines you have set will always be followed.

About: I’ve had a dog since I was born but have also had a bunny and now a cat. Love animals and have looked after many friends pets as well. I am currently in university and do not have a job so have lots of spare time. I miss animals being in my daily life since moving to England so would love to spend time with pets on a weekly basis. Each pet is different so what I do will differ. However no matter what that is I will always put your fur baby first and make them as comfortable as possible while respecting your home.

About: I have an eight year old border collie Australian shepard mix that my life revolves around. Since having her in my life, I have fallen in love with caring for and spending time with dogs! I’ve been walking dogs for three years now and they bring so much joy into each and every day. I currently work part time so I have lots of availability for your pet care! I’m available during the week, on weekends, and on holidays. I am respectful and mindful of the spaces I walk into. I am able to feed, play with, brush, and check in on your dog during house visits. During walks, either off leash or on leash, I give my full attention to the dog to make sure they are safe and having fun!
