Angela was amazing with our diabetic cat. She was punctual at medication time and spent so much time playing with him and loving him. When we came home we was very relaxed, which shows us how well he was loved while we were away. Thank you Angela. We appreciate you.

About: I’ve spent my life around dogs and have cared for many — my own, as well as dogs belonging to family, friends, and neighbours. I raised my boxer from the time she was a tiny puppy and cared for her for 10 wonderful years. She had her own set of health issues, so I’m familiar with administering care, monitoring symptoms, and supporting dogs who need a little extra attention. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes, ages, and personalities; from energetic pups who want to explore every corner of the neighbourhood to older dogs who prefer slow walks and quiet company. I’m happy to host dogs in my home or stay in yours, depending on what makes your pet feel safest and most relaxed. Daily walks, playtime, cuddles, feeding routines, and the occasional mess are all part of the experience I genuinely enjoy. My goal is always to make dogs feel secure, loved, and well cared for while their people are away. I offer flexible, reliable pet‑care with open availability, including early‑morning and late‑night visits perfect for pet parents who are shift workers or have unpredictable schedules. I’m committed to keeping your pets comfortable and cared for whenever you need support. Overnight stays are available with advance notice to ensure the best experience for your furry companions. I follow all home‑care instructions exactly as provided, ensuring your pet’s routine stays consistent and comforting. Whether that includes kennel time or specific in‑home preferences, I always prioritize whatever helps your furry friend feel safest and most relaxed while you’re away.

Jeff was our first experience with a 'Rover' pet sitter. We could not be more impressed. Jeff's introduction to Shelby and Patty was proof things would be okay. They loved him immediately. He visited 4 times a day and made sure to cover pee breaks, run times, food and cuddles. All of the stress of leaving them while we went on Holidays went away when we saw his pics after each visit. Our experience with Jeff has been perfect. Hoping he's available for our vacations in the future.

Lindsay took amazing care of our little guy - very professional, kind and clearly cares a lot about animals! Her report card messages were hilarious and sweet, and I fear my cat may love her more than me now. I would recommend her to anyone!

About: I grew up on an acreage with a wide variety of animals to care for, ranging from sheep and goats, to chickens, rabbits, cats and dogs. I have experience in bottle feeding every 2-3 hours even through the night. I also have experience with making homemade nutritious meals for my families senior dog. I often go to the animal shelter to spend time with the animals there as well. I am currently working part time, which leaves me with lots of time to hang out with your beloved pets. I am free to do house sitting, potty breaks, long and short walks, and general play with your pets. I have a reliable vehicle, so I am able to take your pets to the dog park. I am able to keep working with your pets on any training that they may be doing. I am also able to work with you on special feeding requirements, and any other requests to keep your pet happy and healthy.

About: I've owned a dog or many dogs since I was 18 years old and I am now 53. I specialize in small dogs requiring a safe active loving home environment and im home with them all day or they come with me. I have consistently raised each of those dogs until their natural passing.... I'm not uptight or strict in my care however I am the alpha at my house. I have a very annoying dog whistle that's effective for all dogs and I have never had a problem with recall.(may require training your dog to recall) I prefer consistent training and discipline over crate training but my care for your pet is based on your wants and needs (as long as it doesn't conflict for the others i have in care) and especially consistency for your pet. I allow them on the furniture with training if they are permitted. I train my own pets and can also help with yours. Dogs cats birds reptiles or whatever ...I can also pick up and drop off your pet. I have a special room just for cats as well. Additional tasks required additional costs. (Poor recall, extra needy or whiney or Barry, bigger dogs and or hairy dogs as you know would required extra attention time or cleanup there by reflecting on price. ex: smaller dogs are smaller messes less space/ clean up /big dogs are more hair/foot prints/muscle for care etc. My routine has been the same for the last 35 years... I wake up and I go immediately to take my pets to the dog park where they can be let loose off-leash to do their business... it can take anywhere from 10 or 30 minutes. Then they play or snack or rest at home happily until midday which for them would be approximately between 12 and 3 o'clock I would take them out for another run around same way off-leash And once again at the end of the day before bed between 6 and 10 depending on time of year. That's an example based on a summer schedule however my daily routine would be based on your pet's needs and my preference would be to do 3 times a day if I have them in my full-time care. I have a completely fenced yard with adequate room to run.. I do have 2 other dogs as well that will assist in entertaining yours and keeping them comfortable and assist in training. I also have 2 cats that have no problem with other dogs or if they find the other dogs seem anxious they will hide and not be a bother. I use an open dish policy for food and I treat my pets as though I would my kids. I don't take my eyes off them unless they are safe. I give grain free good food and treats are dried duck or chicken or freeze dried liver or salmon. No milk bones here.

First time using this app, Bruna was amazing taking care of our Benji. Took him to different areas on the walks and treated Benji like her own. I couldn’t have been happier with the service she provided.
