“First time using Rover and chose Holly after reading her positive reviews I felt like this was a good place for my two dogs. She sent pictures which eased my mind as well as I had never sent them anywhere like this before.. just wish I could have actually seen for myself where they would be sleeping at night but I understand. I would definitely send my dogs to Holly again.”

“Kaitlin took such good care of Maisie. She sent me lots of photos and videos, and I could see that she was being well taken care of, which made my weekend away that much more enjoyable. Thanks you Kaitlin!”


“Vanessa is exceptional!! She made us & our dog feel so comfortable and welcomed, and she's just so easy to chat with too! Shelby, our 5yr old whippet mix, can be quite timid and clingy and Vanessa managed to bring her out of her shell and socializing with the other doggos <3 Loved the photos and videos, I felt more confident and relaxed leaving Shelby with a new person/new environment. In addition, Shelby does have a mild incontinence issue and Vanessa was very professional in addressing this concern. We'll be seeing you again Vanessa & family :)”

“Danielle was the PERFECT choice to watch our boy Taco while we had to attend an out of town wedding. She was a great communicator before and during his stay and kept this anxious mama up to date on how and what he was doing. She even camped out in the living room with him overnight so he would feel safe and secure. I could tell Taco was very comfortable there. I highly recommend Danielle as a sitter for your pet.”

About: For my whole life, I have always had family dogs. As an adult, I got my own family dog and he’s so loved! Dogs always made me feel save, loved and at peace. They are so loyal, loveable, and perfect to talk to. I am the first person my friends and family ask to watch their precious fur babies while they go on vacation, short or long stays, or even to let them out to the bathroom or feed them if they are running late. I have an open house for dogs to roam. They are welcome to wander around and make use of my backyard. I have a doggy pool for dogs to cool off in the warm and hot days, I have dog beds to supply if needed. I have experience in raw diets along with kibble. I love getting out and taking dogs for walks, and hikes. I have great trails near my house. I don’t mind giving your dogs a baths along with brushing them. I am a great listener, a friendly face and an awesome cuddler. My hours are very flexible as I am a stay at home mom and I dont mind a little commute, I have my own transportation. I have a 9 year old boxer who loves to play with other dogs. I promise your puppies vacay will be a fun one! I am currently a stay at home mama. We have a little 1 year old daughter who’s bright and cheerful. If you don’t mind your dogs around a little one, and they are child friendly, we’d love to accommodate your furry friend. I am currently a stay at home mom, so I have lots of time to play with your puppy and give them as much attention as they need! I have a fully fenced in yard on an acre, lots of room to run and explore. I also have cameras all around our property.
“Lori and her family took excellent care of our dog, Murphy. Murphy is a large, nervous Nellie but we knew from the start she was in the best hands. Lori made sure Murphy was comfortable, and we appreciated her attention to detail. We would definitely book with Lori again for boarding.”

“Anchana did such an excellent job! We were especially grateful for her patience with Teddy seeing that he is a puppy and has occasional accidents. Plus, she went over and beyond and surpassed our expectations! She’s a keeper!”

About: I've been caring for cats for 12 years and currently have two cats, aged 12 and 2. Caring for them has given me experience with cats at different life stages, including my senior cat, and personalities. My family members have relied on me to care fot their cats over the years, being it keeping them company, feeding them, entretaining them, cleaning litter boxes and the environment. Although I don't have professional pet-sitting experience yet, I understand how important it is to be patient, reliable, attentive, and respectful of each pet's individual routine and personality. While most of my experience is with cats, I also love dogs, have walked a few and am available for walks with small dogs. I have also volunteered at an adoption fair twice, helping tend to the needs of cats and dogs from small to big, from kittens and puppys to adults. I am attentive and always follow each owner's instructions regarding their pet's routine and needs. I currently have a flexible schedule, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the pets in my care. I am available for regular visits and will always make sure to follow your pet's usual routine as closely as possible. I understand that every pet has different needs, routines, and personalities. I will carefully follow your instructions regarding feeding, litter box cleaning, potty breaks, walks, medication if applicable, playtime, and any other routines. I will always make sure your pet is safe, comfortable, and receives plenty of attention during my visits. I also understand that patience is especially important when caring for shy or nervous animals.

“Couldn’t have asked for a better family to take care of our pet. They treated her like their own. I’m so grateful for the care they provided. I got constant updates as well. Highly recommend Chris and his family. I would trust them with my pet with no hesitation.”

“Sharath and Shruti took excellent care of pepper. They were very communicative and made sure to confirm things if they had questions. They sent plenty of pictures of pepper and she also made a new friend which was their beautiful dog named Skye. They got along really well and played alot. We would love to have pepper visit them again!”

“Highly recommend Anhi! She’s very caring, sent me regular updates and took good care of our senior dog Bella. She is on a special diet and has many quirks for senior lady that some may not wish to handle. Anhi fit her schedule around our last minute booking, shifted things around to accommodate us and took great care of Bella. We’re so thankful and would use her services again! Highly recommend!”

“Rhonda was absolutely amazing! She took such wonderful care of my older, reactive dog and handled everything with skill and kindness. Her experience with dogs really shows — Lollie was comfortable, happy, and even a little sad to see her go! Rhonda stayed at my home and left it spotless — so clean and tidy you wouldn’t have even known anyone had stayed. I have complete peace of mind leaving Lollie in her care and will definitely be inviting her back next time!”


“Allyson and her family were absolutely fabulous with Chica\! From the very beginning, Allyson’s communication was stellar—she was incredibly responsive, kind, and so accommodating, especially when I had to make last\-minute changes to drop\-off and pick\-up times\. They sent me lots of pictures throughout Chica’s stay, which gave me so much peace of mind knowing she was happy and well cared for\. It was such a wonderful experience from start to finish, and I’ve already booked Chica’s next stay with Allyson and her family\! I highly recommend them to anyone looking for a loving, trustworthy, and caring home for their pet\. 🐾❤️”

“We were thrilled to have Qian look after Cooper again, and once again, they exceeded our expectations! As our senior dog requires multiple medications and special care, it’s such a relief to know he’s in the hands of someone as attentive and compassionate as Qian. They kept us updated, ensuring we always felt connected and reassured. Cooper was clearly happy, comfortable, and well cared for. Qian’s dedication, reliability, and genuine love for animals make them an incredible pet sitter. We wouldn’t hesitate to book them again and highly recommend their services!”
“Jasmine went out of her way to come into town to Pick up Joni from my work, as I was running late! Joni was LOVED and had so much FUN! I had no hesitations to Leave her with Jasmine, this is the first time since I loathe my dog May that I have trusted anyone with Joni’s care! SUPER job Jasmine! I will see you in The fall!”

About: Both Em and Jac have had dogs their entire lives. Dogs ranging from 5lbs to 100+lbs, and puppy all the way to 16 years old senior dog. Jac has experience training dogs, from basic commands and potty training all the way to reactivity and high prey drive. Em has experience with dogs with separation anxiety, as well she has volunteered with the SPCA shelter. Both Em and Jac have a medical background so dogs with special care needs like medications through injections are not a problem! Jac has also lived and worked on horse farms, helping with grooming, birthing, etc, so a lot of experience around animals! We both work shift work, however we are currently offset. Most days one of us will be home majority of the day, and a few days a month which we overlap night shifts where the dog would be left home alone for 6+hrs (from 4:45pm-1am). These days where we’re both on nights can be discussed beforehand to work something out if your dog requires to be let out more frequently. We have a 50acre property, with a 600m long driveway fenced at the bottom. Private walking trails through the back. A custom built agility course if that’s what your furry friend is into, and we’re constantly adding new obstacles to. There’s a pond if your dog is a swimmer, but plenty of dry ground if they aren’t. We have a room in the house that we keep the dogs in that’s nice and quiet for them, alternatively we have a barn (no livestock, just a rec space) that is cool in the summer and warm in the winter with kennels set up in.
About: I’ve been caring and keeping dogs company since I was 17. Family, friends and neighbors have trusted me to feed, walk and provide loving companionship for their pups. I’m a totally dog person-can’t imagine the world without them! I’m currently work from home, giving me plenty of flexible time to care for your pets. I’m fully available on both weekdays and weekends from 8am to 9pm. I live in a house with a patio and unfenced yard, offering plenty of space both indoors and outdoors. We’re just a 10-minutes walk from Peterborough off-leash dog park, perfect for adding some extra fun and adventure to your puppy’s day!

Andrea was wonderful with our Great Pyr, Regal - who is often nervous and stubborn. She provided long, interesting walks - adjusting the schedule to suit the hot weather. Andrea kept us up to date every day with comments and photos. Our girl loves her! (and therefore, so do we!)
