Bradley has been such incredible help for walking and caring for our dog. She can be an anxious and « too » excited girl but they made a great connection and within a week they developed full trust. You can tell that Brad really loves and cares for dogs and I would wholeheartedly recommend him.

I'm so grateful Nick was available to walk my dog Joey. Not only is he reliable, professional, and communicative but sends the sweetest updates and photos from their walks, and Joey gets so excited to see Nick. He's been flexible with schedule changes and notes if anything is off with Joey, going the extra mile because he cares! Thanks Nick.

Thea is the best, I’ve had her walk my dog several times and she always takes him on a good walk for the time frame I select, even was able to find my leash one day when I forgot to leave it out, and I can tell my dog went on a good walk when I get home! Highly recommend!

About: I’ve taken care of animals, included long term overnight stay since my teenage years. I’m an animal lover through in through, pets are the best I have a flexible remote job, and therefore I am available any time of day with sufficient notice for walks or pop ins, day and night. Having cats of my own, my house is already pet friendly. I have nearby dog parks and I am willing to go on long walks to keep your pet happy.

Dennis was fantastic! I have never left Darla to be walked by anyone and was nervous but she was in great hands, I came back to a very happy dog. I was looking forward to pictures of her all around the neighborhood everyday, they are some of the best picture of her I have now! Thanks Dennis :)

About: Hi, I'm Nicole! I currently work in the video game industry but have previously worked at a pet store for over 5 years which has given me lots of knowledge and experience to care for a variety of pets, most especially dogs. I have been sitting on Rover for 4 years, but have cared for a variety of pets throughout my life. Not only do I love animals but I am qualified to provide for their safety and care! I have experience in dog training, obedience and grooming and can care for all breeds and sizes. I currently have a cat and I offer boarding at my home as long as your dog is comfortable with them. I also provide dog walking and dog visits and charge a reasonable fee. I would love to care for your dog and would treat them like my own pet! :) I currently have the option to work from home whenever I'd like to, so I'd have plenty of time to give lots of attention to your furry friend! Working in multiple pet-related industries, I have lots of training and experience in keeping your pet safe and happy. You can rest assured your pet is in trustworthy hands!

Polly has been a life saver for us! She's been so helpful when our schedules don't allow us the flexibility to be home with our puppy Darla. Whether it's taking her for walks, or doggy day care to hang out with her wonderful doggo Chester, Polly has been all we could ask for. 100% recommend!

About: I’ve been obsessed with dogs for my entire life. Most of my experience comes from raising my two dogs I had growing up. One of whom lived to be 16 with many health issues - including administering medication, carrying him due to limited mobility, and supporting him during seizures. I’ve worked as a dog sitter, boarding dogs in my home (to both friends and strangers), as well as doing regular check ins for acquaintances pets while they were away. This always includes a walk or two, feeding and watering, lots of cuddles and affection, whatever grooming may be required. I am currently a Masters of Science in Education student, hoping to become an Elementary teacher. I’m looking for some opportunities to care for some pets while I finish my studies. My program is completely remote, which allows me to be at home with your pet for the whole day. I go for regular walks and rarely go away on weekends. I live in a residential neighbourhood with a fenced in yard. I love to spend time outside and walk to Gage park or down by the waterfront. I have two cats who are about 9 years old, and are quite used to dogs being around. They prefer to mind their own business and don’t interact much with dogs in the house.

Buddy had a lovely walk with Cat! He came back tired and ready to nap. Cat is very nice and really cares about your dog! Buddy is a handful as he is a big puppy but she handled him well and was patient with his psycho ways!

It was my first time having Michelle walk Bella, and I couldn’t be happier. She was punctual, professional, and clearly very experienced with dogs. Bella absolutely loved her right away, which says a lot. She took the time to make Bella feel comfortable and gave me great peace of mind. I highly recommend her and will definitely be booking again.

Olivia did a great job walking my dog Winnie. We arranged a meet and greet and Olivia asked great questions which made me feel comfortable going ahead with the walk. Winnie can be fearful and anxious with new people. Olivia was patient with her and gained her trust so as that they were able to enjoy a nice walk together. I got lots of updates and pictures and Winnie was left happy with her walk. I would not hesitate to use Olivia again Thankyou :)

Cameron was our first experience with a dog walker and I must say he set the bar high. He was quick to respond and very communicative. As he was a new person to our dog she was hesitant at first but took to walking with him very quickly. He was kind and enthusiastic with Bucky and made her feel right at home. We will definitely be using him again!

If reliability, good communication and genuine caring for your pet are what you need from a pet co-parent. Lauren is your lady. She understands the importance of being consistent with a dog, and asked good questions - I loved that.
