House Sitting Forest

“Alyce is great! She has watched Josie for me twice now and each time it’s been seamless. This had been my first time using the app and I was anxious leaving my dog with a stranger but Alyce made me feel so comfortable. Her communication and check ins with me while I am away are a great reminder that my dog is in good hands. I definitely recommend Alyce for your pet-sitting needs!”

“Anna is an amazing sitter and treated my dog like her own - I felt completely comfortable and did not worry about my home or my dog whilst in Anna’s care - would definitely recommend her to look after your pets and home”

“It is not easy to leave home when you’ve got three cats, including an almost 19 year old with regular medications and observation needed. Jacob’s kindness and qualifications put our minds at ease and we had the best vacation we’ve had in ages because of him. Jacob was reliable, gave us updates and pictures while house sitting, and left our home in very tidy condition. All three cats seemed very comfortable when we got back. We’d absolutely hire him again!”

About: I have had 5 dogs during my life and always either 2 or 3 at a time… It’s gone from big to small, with our german shepherds, Australian shepherds and our little mini schnauzer. I have watched them grow up and grow old, so i’m aware of challenges with senior dogs as well as puppies. I’m very active and love to go on walks! Most importantly I love dogs in general. I’m currently doing a full time masters program but have evening availability for your pup and occasionally free mornings/afternoons. Please reach out and we can figure out dates and times! My dogs aren’t currently living with me as I am at school, so your dog(s) will have lots of one on one time with me

About: Grew up with a dog since I was a young kid! Huge animal lover and would love to meet yours! 🙂 I have a 5 year old male Morkie, who is my world! I'm a born and raised Kingston girl 😊 My schedule is very flexible so I feel like I can almost always be available to help with your pets needs! Home owner of 10 years in a safe neighbourhood 🏡 I have a fenced in backyard for your dog to play in and do their buisness!

“Myriam was a pleasure to work with. Her genuine love for animals was evident from the start, and our dog, cat, goats, and chickens were all exceptionally well cared for during our absence. She provided regular updates and photos, which gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. We returned to a clean, well-maintained home and happy, relaxed pets. I would confidently recommend Myriam to anyone looking for a reliable, compassionate, and professional pet sitter, and we will absolutely be booking with her again.”

About: I have had dogs my entire life, I started my own dog grooming business when I was 11, and have had many repeat clients stay with me over the years. I was hired by a local dog groomer so I have experience with a lot of dog breeds and their temperaments. I also worked on a horse farm for 7 years that had various dogs and cats as well! I am working during some days right now, I would be excited to talk more to see if I could accommodate your schedule and mine! In my pet sitting service, I prioritize creating a comfortable and familiar environment for pets, whether it's in my home or yours. This includes regular feeding schedules, ample exercise and playtime, and personalized attention tailored to each pet's needs. I also maintain open communication with pet owners to provide updates and address any concerns promptly.

About: I have over two years of experience providing reliable and compassionate pet care for dogs. I have been responsible for feeding, walking, administering basic medications, and ensuring overall health and well-being. My experience also includes maintaining clean living environments, monitoring behavior for any signs of illness, and communicating regularly with pet owners to provide updates and peace of mind. I take pride in creating a safe, loving, and stress-free environment for every pet in my care as well as pet owners. We own a family business where I work from home Mon-Fri. As long as internet is accessible, I do not need to leave for work! I like to break up my day by going for a walk with whichever furry friends are in my presence. I enjoy spending time with all types of dogs. Cuddlers who like to relax together, energetic dogs who like to go for long walks, I can be available to follow any meal times and/or medications.

“Lily is reliable, caring, and great to work with. She treats our home and pets with love and respect and she’s all we could want in a walker and sitter.”

“This was my first experience with Rover. It was a desparate last-minute request for an in-my-home dog sitter. I am pleased at how well it all unfolded. Caitlin was punctual for the short notice meet and greet. I have three small dogs with various quirks and needs. Caitlin listened intently to the confusing narrative I offered about the dog's various needs. She made sense of it all and stated that none of it presented any difficulty for her. Interestingly, all three of my dogs were intruigued by Caitlin and did not offer the sort of resistance that they usually display towards strangers. The next day, Caitlin was again punctual, actually ready to start the assignment before I was ready. The dogs remembered her and I could see that they would be comfortable with her. She handed them all some of their favorite treats and the deal was sealed. I was only gone for one night but it all seemed to go very well. Caitlin sent me a photo of the pups looking very relaxed and she advised me of her departure time. The house looked cleaner than it was when I left which was a pleasant surprise, Dishes were washed and put away. The dogs bowls were all in their respective places with the right foods in them. Caitlin stripped the bedding making my return that much easier. I have nothing but positive feedback for this dog sitting experience. Thank You Caitlin !”

About: I've taken care of pets of all sorts for the last 20 years. It started with family friends and eventually my name spread. I have cared for animals of all sizes, from pocket dogs to giant breeds. I have cared for puppies and kittens, and senior animals, giving them the attention and affection they deserve. I have worked as a professional dog walker in the past and built some experience working with animals that required medication in both needle and pill form. My greatest asset is my ability to match your schedule as closely as possible, helping ensure your animal experiences minimal disruption and stays as relaxed as possible. I own a content marketing business and I am able to work flexible hours. This means I can meet pet care needs whenever and wherever you need. My work schedule can work around you and your pet. When I look after animals in client homes, I leave the smallest foot print possible. My focus is on your pet. I will respect the rules and boundaries you have set for them and keep your home as you left it. Other than a happy pet, there will be no other signs that I was there.

About: Certainly! Here’s an extended version with a few more lines to make your answer more detailed and impressive: --- I have over 8 years of hands-on experience as a dedicated pet sitter, and I also care for two pets of my own — a playful dog and a senior cat — so I understand the daily needs, personalities, and quirks that make each pet unique. What sets me apart from other sitters is not just my experience, but my genuine love for animals and my ability to connect with them on a deeper level. I have worked with pets of all ages, sizes, and temperaments — from energetic puppies needing consistency and training, to older pets who require medication, mobility assistance, and extra TLC. I’m skilled in basic puppy training, crate training, leash manners, and socialization. I also have experience dealing with rescue animals and those with anxiety or behavioral issues, always using a gentle and reassuring approach. Pet safety is my top priority. I stay alert, follow detailed care instructions, and maintain regular communication with pet parents through updates and photos. I treat every animal as if they were my own — with love, patience, and respect. I work from Monday to Friday from 9 to 5.After that and before that I am available and I can sit with your pet at night Here’s a well-rounded answer to the **“Safety, trust & environment”** question, written from your perspective as an experienced cat sitter and pet sitter who may care for pets either in your own home or the client’s home: --- Whether I’m caring for pets in my own home or my client’s, safety and trust are always my top priorities. In a client’s home, I respect their space and follow all care instructions precisely — including feeding schedules, medication, exercise routines, and any household rules their pet is used to. I take the time to learn each pet’s preferences and behaviors so I can provide a familiar, low-stress environment while their family is away. In my own home, I maintain a clean, pet-friendly space that is free from hazards. I ensure secure windows and doors, use pet-safe cleaning products, and have separate, quiet areas available if a pet needs space or time to adjust. My own pets are well-socialized, and I carefully supervise all interactions to ensure everyone feels safe and comfortable. I also provide regular updates, photos, and videos to build trust with pet parents, showing them that their pet is in good hands. Whether in my home or theirs, I aim to create a calm, caring, and secure environment where pets feel loved, safe, and stress-free.

About: My first dog shared my crib with me and I have never been without a canine companion since! Currently I have two dogs - a completely bonkers Australian koolie and rescue dog I call the "house coyote". For the last 3 years we have travelled all around North America and Mexico in my little motorhome in search of the ultimate dog walk. I have worked and volunteered at vet offices and dog shelters and have yet to ever meet a dog I don't like. From the grumpy ones, to the frightened and the injured to the athlete - each dog is unique and it's my superpower to be able to recognize and harness what motivates him or her in order to bring as much satisfaction to their lives as I can. That I why I incorporate dog training disguised as games into my walks. I believe dogs need to exercise their brains as well as their bodies and your dog will return to you happy and fulfilled. Because I work freelance from my home office my schedule is my own to manage. this means Im free anytime. Getting out from behind the desk and into the fresh air is only ever a good thing! Rain,Snow or Shine I have the right footwear for anything. My dogs have a lot of freedom - but they have worked hard to earn it! I want to share my life with them so we started training from the day they arrived. I believe in awards based training and understanding the psychology of dogs, so we have a lot of mutual respect and patience for one another. Im proud to say I can take my guys anywhere and I do! that's not to say any of us are perfect but I provide security, exercise, boundaries, and games to keep us all a happy family. I offer the same approach to your pet(s)
