Andrea did a great job of looking after my elderly golden doodle. We took a day trip and we had Andrea look after our dog at lunch and dinner time. We look forward to using Andrea again for our next day trip.

About: Caring for animals has been a big part of my life for years. I have experience with cats, dogs, and small animals, and I always strive to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while they’re in my care. ● I previously volunteered/worked at a local animal shelter, where I primarily cared for cats, but also walked dogs and looked after smaller animals. ● I have dog-sitting experience, including overnight stays while caring for other people’s dogs. ● I regularly walk my neighbour’s dog from time to time. He’s a big boy and an absolute love bug! ● I previously completed a co-op placement at Ruff Cuts, where I gained hands-on experience with basic pet grooming: ○ Cat nail trimming: $10 per cat (additional charge) ○ Dog bathing: $15 per dog (additional charge) ● I have experience helping dogs who pull on their leash and know how to work with them toward calmer, more comfortable walks. ● Before caring for your pet, I’ll ask about their routine, personality, quirks, preferences, and any special instructions you have. Every furry family member is different, and I want to make sure I care for them the way you would. ● Getting to know your pet and making sure they’re happy, safe, and comfortable is my priority (aside from coming home to my own three spoiled boys 😂). And yes — I have three cats of my own. They’re my special boys. ♡ 🐈🐈🐈 Your pets aren’t just a job to me — they’re someone’s family. I’ll treat them with the same patience, respect, and care I’d want for my own. 🐾♡ My availability for pet care is Monday through Friday, from 9:00 AM to 4:00 PM. Unfortunately, I’m not available for weekend bookings due to my limited availability. I also have three cats of my own, so their routine is an important part of my day. ♡ I feed them their scheduled meal at 5:00 PM every day, with small portions of dry food available throughout the day. Because of this, I’m able to dedicate my daytime hours to caring for your furry family members while still maintaining a consistent routine for my own cats. 🐾 Your pet’s routine matters to me, too, so I’ll always do my best to follow their usual feeding, walking, medication, playtime, and care schedule while they’re in my care. ♡ I’m unable to host pets in my own home because I have three cats of my own. However, I’m more than happy to provide pet care in the comfort and familiarity of your pet’s own home. I believe pets are often most comfortable in their own environment, surrounded by their familiar smells, toys, beds, and routines. My goal is to keep their day as normal and stress-free as possible while you’re away. ♡ Depending on your pet’s needs, I can help with: ● Walks and exercise ● Litter-box cleaning ● Feeding and fresh water ● Playtime and enrichment ● Brushing and basic grooming ● Dog bathing ● Plenty of attention, patience, and companionship ● Bringing my own waste bags when needed I’ll also follow any instructions you provide and treat your home and your pets with the same respect and care I’d expect for my own. Their safety, comfort, and happiness are always my priority. 🐾♡

About: I'll treat your dog like it's my own. I love being around dogs. I have 15+ years caring for animals of all ages. I'm farm raised with lots of animals, always had a dog or two growing up and still continue to have my own. I'm confident with any age dog from puppies to seniors. I currently work part-time as a dog trainer and volunteer with the humane society with their dogs. I enjoy working with dogs to get them to really enjoy the walk. I do work with pullers and jumpers and try to get your dog to a level where you'll also be able to enjoy your walks. I aim to put a dent in your dog's exercise needs to give you that calm, fulfilled pup when you return. Your dog will be welcomed as a pack member with me where we will work to have mutual respect between myself and your dog(s). I take a firm, but fair, no nonsense approach to working with dogs. I live on a farm near town and do have open fields that your dog may run and play (if you and I both feel comfortable with your dog being off leash). I do also have a large fenced in area I use as well and a shop area that I often use for my training space. My girlfriend and I are both on Rover and often work together with different dogs including our own. Meet and Greets are always welcome to ensure I am the best fit for your dog. Please reach out if you have any questions.

I reached out to Victoria less than 48h before I needed a dog walker and she was absolutely fantastic! She was was quick to respond and set up a meet and greet, and the day of the walk she offered a detailed update on how it went. After a not great experience on Rover a few months ago with a different dog walker, I can say that Victoria has renewed my faith in walkers/sitters on this platform. When I need someone to walk my dog in the future, Victoria will be the person I turn to first.

About: I've lived with animals most of my life. From feeding, bathing, and walking to play time and adventure, I love it all! Most of my experience is with dogs and lizards, however I have experience with most animals. I have completed placements in an animal hospital and pet store giving me lots of knowledge and experience. I know how important routines are for animals and my goal is to ensure I keep things as normal as possible so they don't even know you're gone. I cant wait to spend time with your animals! I am currently not working so have open availability to care for your little ones all day. I will happily follow whatever routine you have in place for your pets! I will follow your routines and rules for your pets, after all you know them best. I will give them lots of love, attention, and care to meet all their needs.

About: I’ve helped care for dogs since I was 9 years old. From puppies to seniors, big and small, there’s no dog I won’t care for. I work full time Monday to Friday, but my evenings and weekends are usually free. I have occasionally have online activities, but your pet will always have priority. I have a large yard for potty breaks, and live on a very quiet road for walks. Our house is large enough for playtime sessions.

About: I’ve cared for my own pets as well as dogs belonging to family and friends, giving me experience with a variety of breeds, personalities, and energy levels. I’m comfortable with feeding, refreshing water, walks, playtime, bathroom breaks, and making sure every pet gets plenty of love, attention, and companionship. Whether your dog loves long walks, playing fetch, cuddling on the couch, or simply having someone by their side, I’ll provide personalized care based on their individual needs and personality. Your pet’s safety and happiness are my top priorities. I’ll treat them like one of my own and keep you updated with regular photos and messages, so you can relax knowing they’re in caring and reliable hands. I’m currently on summer break from university, so I have a very flexible schedule and plenty of availability for pet sitting, drop-in visits, and walks. Whether you need care during the week, on weekends, or even on short notice, I’d be happy to work with your schedule whenever possible. When caring for pets in your home, my priority is making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and relaxed in their familiar environment. I carefully follow your pet’s routine, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any specific instructions you provide, so their day stays as normal as possible. I understand the importance of trust when welcoming someone into your home. I’ll treat both your pet and your home with the utmost respect, keeping everything clean, secure, and exactly as you left it. I’ll also provide regular photo and message updates so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy and well cared for while you’re away.

About: Hi there! thanks for checking out my profile. Happy to have you here. I will leave a brief but detailed synopsis about myself and my experience working with pets. My goal is to help you make an informed decision regarding your pet's stay while you are away. My name is Vee. I am a university student full of vibrant energy and a love for pets. I have five years of documented experience in pet sitting. I have had pets of all sorts and breed under my care. Domestic pets such as cats, dogs, birds, horses and reptiles I have attended to. I am well vexed in this field as I volunteered with an animal shelter catering to older pets. I loved it! I am certified in CPR for pets should an emergency arise. I take pride in my vigilance and accessibility. I am a student of life and love to learn as much as I can and build amazing friendships with pet owners while taking great care of their pets! I would also like to describe myself as trustworthy. I am organized and my love for pets shows in various aspects. I have excellent multitasking and communication skills. I am also really good at recalling names. Cruelty-free enthusiast. Can’t wait to meet you and start taking care of these amazing pets! Thank you for trusting me to care for your babies while you take a well-deserved break 😊 I am available all year round to accept bookings and do my best to respond to bookings in a timely manner. I am honest and transparent about my hours and will not take any more bookings than necessary. I am extremely passionate about this business. I try not to overwhelm myself as this is important to me. I aim to be the best sitter I can be and strive for perfection each stay. I do not overcharge for stays and my low prices for stays are deliberate. I do this for the company as I enjoy having pets around while I study. It's a win-win. I formulated a couple of games to occupy and tire out your pet for the entirety of their stay. I will send photos of the entirety of the stay and keep in touch so you have peace of mind. I have spare toys in my care also, but always recommend bringing your own. I have had pets with severe anxiety and having a piece of home, be it a blanket or toys that smell like home helps a ton. As far as safety, I have a fenced yard in my apartment and will never let a pet off-leash especially if your pet does not have any recall. I enjoy practicing training with pets also and have successfully conditioned some to learn commands. I offer grooming services as well at no extra cost, except showers/baths. Your pet is in safe hands and you will have nothing to worry about while they are in my care. I will make sure of that.

Mike was great to deal with with proper handling of our young golden retriever. Was on time, even in the rain and was a big help on short notice when we needed it. Will be back for more walks in the future
