“Very friendly and flexible, and took great care of Rosie during her walk. Communication was excellent, and I would definitely recommend her to other pet owners.”

“Lauryn is a total gem. Our dog loved her instantly, which made me feel at ease. Lauryn was professional and kind during our meet and greet, and confident with our girl who is a high-energy, leash-reactive GSD mix. We came home to a happy, sleepy pup. I definitely recommend Lauryn.”

About: I have had animals of all varieties my whole life. I've always been the primary care taker for my animals growing up, from birds, to lizards to dogs and more! I worked in the pet industry for several years and truly enjoy working with animals. I offer 1-on-1 walks and drop-in visits, especially for those times you’re stuck at work all day! I have experience with reactive, anxious, and high energy dogs and can ensure I provide them a safe walking experience to fit their needs. I have had cared for senior dogs and cats, as well as those with daily medications and special diets. If there are any requests for special accommodations just shoot me a message and we can chat more about how I can meet your pet care goals! I'm currently not working as I freshly graduated nursing school! Taking the summer off to study for my exam and looking to spend that time caring for clients and potentially continuing long-term if it’s a good fit! I currently only have one cat in the home who is friendly with dogs and other cats as she grew up around both. I have a fenced in yard and two story home with lots of space. If an animal has any special feeding needs I am able to feed them in separate spaces as needed.

“Truly appreciate Sara’s approach and dedication to my pups walks. She is professional, friendly and understands dog behaviour. Will definitely use her services again and highly recommend Sara for your animals needs.”

About: I've work in multiple animal hospitals taking care of range of ages of pets from senior to barely a week old kittens. I understand the gentle nature you must have when taking care of your fur babies. My neighbor has a beautiful 16 year old cat that I take care of and at times he can have some accidents and I always do my best not just cleaning up the mess but also bathing him to make sure he stays nice a clean. Family friends have put their trust in me for taking care of their senior German shepherd while on vacation making sure she got the attention and the proper exercise while away. Each pet is unique and have their own special requirements, some need to run for miles, other's are couch potatoes and I'm capable of meeting either needs. Whether it's a nice jog or stroll, learning/reinforcing commands. I also understand that some dogs can be anxious and need time to warm up to knew people or have routines that help ease them. With my work in clinics I experienced working one on one with anxious rescues and learned how to work with them to help making them more comfortable with strangers in the clinic. At the end of the day I want to give you pets the best experience I can and treat them like my own while they're in my care. I have a very flexible schedule at the moment giving me plenty of time to take care of your fur babies, even evening too rain or shine. I'd first want to know if there's and house rules for your pets (no siting on the couch, certain areas of the house that could be off limits, timing for if they go in a crate at night). I'd want to spend as much time as I could with them getting their energy out or if their more the type to lay with you on the couch. I would always amke sure their water bowl stays full and make sure they dont get into anything while you're gone. I'd also could take garbage and recycling out if needed while you're away.

About: I’ve taken care of family dog and neighbors dog for 5 years. I have experience taking care of small to medium dogs and can train basic skills for puppies. My job has a flexible hours schedule and I can work from home. Therefore I can accommodate any hours needed by the customer and their dog. I do not have pets in my home currently, so the client’s dog will be the only pet in the home. I’ll make sure their dogs feel comfortable here.

“Brittany was absolutely incredible with our two fur babies . She went above and beyond for us while caring for them while I was away . I would highly recommend and can’t wait to use her services again!”

“Shorty had a great walk with Jayson even though it was raining. Jayson was prompt and messaged and took pictures everything I needed to put my minds at rest. I will be using Jayson again!”

About: Hi, I’m Jenelle! I have spent my life caring for and most importantly, loving animals. I have surrounded myself with animals my entire life and truly believe pets are what make a family whole. Personally, I have had experience with dogs, cats, birds (lovebirds, budgies), rabbits, and fish. Currently, my family consists of myself and my fiance, and our 6-year-old Golden Doodle, Beau. Through both personal and professional experiences, and as a volunteer with the Guelph Humane Society, I have gained plenty of experience with a variety of animals and have experience walking, handling, and socializing with dogs of all breeds, sizes, backgrounds, personalities, and needs. I am very active and enjoy long hikes (or runs) on our city's many wonderful trails and have a flexible work schedule and therefore, am available on some weekdays as well as weekends. No matter the animal, I look forward to getting to know you and the fur baby that makes your family whole! My job is hybrid, with my office close by. As long as I know your needs in advance, I can adjust my work schedule around your pet. I have a fenced-in yard and my partner and I have a 3-bedroom house - 2 of the rooms are occupied by us and our furry family, but your pets can have their own quiet room if needed.

About: Hi, I live in kitchener in a home. I love dogs and cats. I've had cats for more than 6 years and dogs for more than 5 years. I have loved them more than anything. I always took them for walks and cared for them. I'm new to professional pet sitting but would be happy for the opportunity to help you walk your dog or care for them in my home. I will make sure your dog has his/her own mini vacation while I puppy sit and have minimum two walks a day and lots of play time. I will let you know more information when we meet or over message. Thank you for your time and consideration. Looking forward to hear from you Kind regards, Harish

“Rayane was amazing! This was my first time using Rover AND having someone walk my dog, so I was nervous. We met the day before, and I was immediately at ease with Rayane. She asked lots of questions and gave Nori lots of love and pets. She kept me updated as she walked Nori, and sent lots of pictures after the walk. I had an excellent first experience with Rayane and will definitely book her again.”

About: Over 30 years of being a cat Mom, while also looking after cats for family and friends in their homes. I have experience giving medications, pills and injections. Litter boxes don’t scare me one bit! I know how to bathe a cat in 20 minutes with low stress for the cat and next to no scratches for me. I also know how to groom cats, and can do nail trims. I have a number of different techniques to play with the kitties. I love animals, especially cats, and totally understand cats, their moods and a cat’s cantankerous ways. I once had a golden retriever who was my kid for 12 years. Lovely dog. She crossed rainbow bridge in 2014, gone but not forgotten. Currently unemployed, seeking part time work, so that I will still have time to do this occasional job as well. I will be starting post secondary studies in the next few months, classroom time is 4 hours per day, leaving time for me to come and visit/walk your pet. I can come and visit your pet up to twice a day if needed. I do not sleep over in your home. I do not do visits/walks outside the KW area. For dog walking, here is my usual routine. I enter the door say hello to the pet, grab their leash, poop bags, and then prepare the pet for their walk. Put on clothes or boots if needed, collar and leash, then off we go!
