“This was the first time Lyne has looked after our kitties and she was amazing! We came home to happy cats, and a very clean house. Lyne even washed our sheets and re-made our bed. We are so happy to have found Lyne and will book her for all of our future cat sitting needs (if she is available). Thanks so much Lyne!!!”
“Tara had excellent communication and provided lots of info regarding my 10 month old pup. She was very patient and provided Riley with lots of excercise and games. She left my house very tidy. I would not hesitate to have her pets it at my house again :)”
About: I love taking care of animals. We’ve had our family dog now for about 7 years and I still love hanging out with her as well as other dogs. I have experience dog sitting and walking for many years as well as helping out and socializing animals at local shelters I work full time but I still find the time to help you out when needed. I can stay overnight with your dog but will most likely be going to work for 5-8 hours 5 or 6 days a week. When I am sitting dogs or cats I spent a majority of the time playing with them, cuddling, and walking them. I believe that a good sitter spends all their time making sure the animal is having fun when their owners aren’t around to play with them
“Allison came to my rescue at the last minute. She was great with my animals. Gave me updates and pictures. She also left my place really clean. Thank you.”
“Mariia and Vinny loved Chewie like he was their own. He was very relaxed and happy when we got back. They were professional and communicative and I would recommend them to care for anyone’s pet.”
“Amy was wonderful. Took great care of our elderly dog, and left the house spotless upon our return. Thank you!”
“Anna & Vladimir made an amazing first impression in our meeting and I knew they’re going to be a perfect fit for our dog. And indeed, they were perfect! Our dog is senior and has health issues so he requires some special assistance. Anna and Vladimir had no problem meeting that challenge, they told us about the many dogs they cared for and it was clear they are dog people through and through. On our two weeks away they sent updates, took care of all of our dog’s many needs, made sure he gets his medication on time and found lots of time to show him love, cuddle and make sure he’s happy. We were calm and confident and didn’t have to worry. We received our home and dog in perfect shape. We can’t wait to book them again!”
“Lauren is a very patient and conscientious dogsitter who really took the time to make sure she understood the needs of our nervous rescue dog. She was punctual, reliable and just generally lovely, and we will certainly be booking her again.”
“Thank you Cass for taking care of my home and my kitty Honey during Christmas holidays! Thanks for being so reliable and a pleasure to deal with; I appreciate it so much.”
About: I have taken care of pets my whole life. I love walking and live in a very good area for walking dogs. Little dogs are my favourite, however, I have taken care of most sizes . I have a fully fenced large yard for playtime. I am mostly retired, and am committed to full time pet care . I look forward to meeting you and your Best Friend ! . I have a fully fenced yard, and a nice big area inside for your dog. If it's ok with you, they are allowed to sleep on the bed or couch!
About: I've been taking care of animals ever since I can remember. Dogs, cats, ducks, sheep, rabbits. I'm also vegan so you'll know I genuinely love all animals From morning cuddles to evening play, it becomes a seamless part of my schedule, creating moments of joy and bonding. Whether it's feeding, grooming, or simply sharing quality time, these routines not only cater to your pet's needs but also enrich my life with the unconditional love and companionship they bring. I love playing with your fur babies until they are out of breath and had all the fun they needed and wanted for the day. So when you come back home, they just want to cuddle and sleep in your arms all night.

“Ashlyn was great! Good communication and really easy going and accommodating with the meet & greet and flexible with the start and end times. She seems like a very smart and kind soul who clearly loves dogs! And our place was left spotless!”
About: Hi, I’m a self-employed day trader with flexible hours, which means I’m home often and can work from anywhere with mobile service or WiFi. My pup Kenai is a 6-year-old who grew up with two cats, so he’s friendly and well-socialized with other animals. He’d love a buddy to play and explore both indoors and out! Daily Routine - Morning Walk: Before 8:30 am, 20-30 minutes; 5-7km jog if your dog is high energy. - 40-120min daytime forest walk off leash if your dog is a repeat boarder/experienced hiker. Otherwise a midday walk 30-45mins. - Play & Snuggle Sessions: Multiple 5-10 minute sessions throughout the day, both indoors and outdoors - Off-Leash Adventures: Around 3-4 pm for outdoor exploration - After dinner walk 20-30mins - Bedtime bathroom break Our Space We’re in a 3-bedroom, newer apartment on Venture Way with a layout perfect for pets. Dogs have full access to the home and plenty of comfort, with multiple dog beds throughout the space. If your pet needs a comfortable, playful environment, Kenai and I would be thrilled to welcome them! WFH/self employed allowing plenty of time for walks, play, and care for your furry family member. My dog Kenai gets 3-5 walks daily, including an off-leash adventure every afternoon, rain, snow or shine. With no kids at home, I can give full attention to your pet, providing a fun and engaging environment where they’ll feel right at home. I offer pet care either in my home or yours, depending on your preference and your pet's needs. As a user of Rover myself, a tour of where Kenai will be sleeping is mandatory. He has three trusted rover boarders, one which is identified in my will. Rover was the platform to locate another dog loving well cared for home for him to be comfortable in while I travel. I welcome a visit prior to your dogs stay, even for daycare. In My Home: Your pet will enjoy a cozy, pet-friendly environment with full access to my spacious, 3-bedroom apartment, complete with multiple dog beds (washed after every boarding guest). They’ll be part of our daily routine, including 3-5 walks, an off-leash adventure, and plenty of indoor/outdoor play and snuggle sessions with my dog, Kenai. In Your Home (drop in visits): If your pet feels most comfortable in their own space, I can visit throughout the day for walks, feeding, playtime, and companionship. My flexible schedule allows me to adapt to your pet’s routine, providing the same level of care and attention as I do for Kenai. We can tailor each service to meet your pet's unique needs and keep them happy and relaxed!
“Sarah was excellent in watching my girls for the day! Kept me posted with updates and photos through out the day. Wonderful with Zoey and Maddie. Highly recommend her!”
About: Animals mean the world to me. I grew up with Pure Breed Bouvier dogs, Persian and Himalayan cats. I was no "stranger" to cleaning dog runs, bathing, brushing and combing their fur. As well as, assisting with their oral hygiene. I truly feel in my heart that all animals need love, compassion, companionship, guidance, comfort, and assistance. They are our family!! Whenever you look into an animal's eyes you can see deep within their soul and spirit. It's an incredible and amazing feeling. Animals, give us their complete vulnerability and as pet owners/family, we are supposed to: * Protect, nourish, and love them*. I am here to: "take away" your worries, your stress, and your anxiety! I am professional and compassionate. I am here for you and your "Furbabes". Thank You Natalie
About: I'm the perfect CASUAL or FILL IN dog walker and/or pet sitter. I come from a long line of pet lovers and have had dogs and cats for most of my life. I recently lost my beautiful Yotie (red heeler, husky, shepherd) who I was blessed to have for 16.5 wonderfully adventurous years. I believe that our pets are family members and that it's important to meet an animal where it's at, both physically and emotionally. I approach all my four-legged friends with a calm and respectful attitude and will only give cuddles when they ask. I am the perfect casual "fill in" walker or sitter. I do a lot of contract work (in film/tv) so have gaps and down time in my schedule to fill it up with dog walks and pet visits. I would prefer to only have max three dogs at a time for walks so they will all fit comfortable in my vehicle should we want to adventure into the hiking trails or to the beach. I will work with the owners to have suitable treats on hand, doggie bags, portable water dishes and appropriate leashes etc.
“Amelia was great to work with as we arranged our first house/pet sitting. Met our pups in advance and they loved her! Everything was low stress and our dogs were well cared for and happy/relaxed when we arrived back home:-) Thanks Amelia!”

“My wife and I have 2 dogs and 3 cats (1 dog and 2 cats are rescues) they are not easy to deal with,especially the rescues. We went to Europe for 2 weeks and chose Natalie based on her bio, reviews and our instincts and boy are we ever HAPPY we did! She understood how to handle the rescues and all 5 pets. We were nervous to come home and they were happy as could be. Everything was clean, the pets happy and all of their diet and exercise needs followed. We are happy to know we can leave the Sunshine Coast with our pets in wonderful hands and highly recommend you stop searching right here! Thank-you very much Natalie.”
