About: Hey there I’m Judy, I love all animals but have a soft spot for the fluffy ones. I’ve grown up with pets my whole life and currently have a small “zoo” of my own (2 cats and 2 dogs). I have Volunteer experience at a cat sanctuary so I can roll with any situation good, bad, or messy. I have experience in giving daily medication/applying medicated ointments, allergy restrictions, mild grooming needs, and cleaning up after naughty furry friends. If there is any other special attention your furry friend might require I'm here to help. With the joy of owning my furry friends, I have mastered the skills of ball throwing, zoomies management, belly rubs, slobbery kiss receiving, and scoping out the best places to go potty. I have a Bichon/ Shih Tzu mix and a Golden Doodle so I can adapt to their personal needs no matter the size or energy level of your furry friend. I don’t have any full time commitments currently and would love to fill my free time looking after your furry friend. I look forward to meeting you and your furry companion. It will depend your dog requirements.. I have a fenced in yard so I can play and supervise your furry friend in the comfortable safe environment. if your dog enjoys walks I can Leash walk them to the nearest park or around the neighborhood for daily exercise and adventure.
“Sina had a wonderful time with Candace, Bella and Buster today. Thank you to Candace for making the stay so comfortable for Sina. Sina came home tired but not overly tired. We can’t wait to see you again.”
“So grateful to Yingzhe and Matthew for caring for Edith on short notice! Communication was prompt and polite and our pup came home happy, healthy, and tired. Would absolutely recommend!”
“We are truly thankful for Val and the care she provides for Hank From the moment we met her, it was clear he was in good hands. She’s not just caring—she’s genuinely invested in making sure he feels right at home. Val’s pup, Bandit, has become Hank’s best buddy, adding an extra layer of fun and excitement to his time there. We love knowing Hank is with someone who treats him like family. If you’re looking for someone who’s all heart and paws, Val is it! Highly recommend her to anyone who wants their dog to feel loved and happy while they’re away.”
About: I’ve looked after and loved dogs since I was very young which has allowed me to become a responsible and trustworthy caretaker. My friends, neighbours, and family have all entrusted their dogs to me for long and short periods of time. I believe that there is no better person that they could’ve asked, because I treat and love every dog that is in my care as my own: spoiled to the max! I’m available during the week and on the weekend as needed, with some exceptions of course. Looking forward to spending time with your furry friend! Our days will consist of walks, treats, playtime, and tons of snuggles. I pride myself in creating a fun, relaxed environment where my dog and the dogs in my care can feel safe and comfortable. I’m also very aware of dogs’ emotions; people shockingly seem to think that dogs don’t really have too many, but I’m very perceptive of small behavioural clues that express discomfort, agitation, sadness etc. so your dog’s emotional health will never be overlooked.
About: I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember! My partner and I currently have a sweet little poodle at home, so we understand the importance of reliable and loving care. Over the years I’ve cared for dogs, cats, guinea pigs, hamsters, turtles, fish—even a gecko! I’ve also helped take care of friends’ and neighbours’ pets, whether it’s going on walks, feeding, or just spending time with them. I treat every pet like family and always aim to make them feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away :) I just finished my undergraduate degree and currently stay at home full-time while my partner works remotely, so one of us is always home with your pet! I’m available for walks, drop-ins, and boarding, with lots of flexibility on weekdays and weekends. Whether it’s playtime or quiet companionship, your pet will get plenty of love and attention throughout the day. We live in a spacious, pet-friendly apartment in downtown Kitchener with a secure balcony and lots of cozy spots for your pet to relax. There are several parks nearby, including Victoria Park, perfect for daily walks and outdoor fun. We have two sweet, friendly poodles who enjoy the company of other pets but is also happy to give them space if needed. We also have a crate available for pups who prefer their own quiet spot to rest. Your pet’s comfort and safety are our top priorities.
“Kate sent lots of pictures and took excellent care of Milo. He came home a happy tired dog. I would definitely recommend Kate and Jonathan and will bring Milo for another visit.”
About: I have had pets since I was a small child, mostly dogs and cats but I grew up on a farm so have been around all kinds of animals. I have two families that contact me all the time to watch their pets when they are on vacation and we love to have them join us. I have 5 children who adore animals and who are there to lend a helping hand as well as their space to be a great companion to your pets! I work from home so I am always home with my kids and pets, your pets will never be lonely. They will be so loved and cared for, usually by the second time here they walk right in without even looking back! We will always treat your babies like we treat our own :) I’ve worked from home for many years and will continue to do so for many years to come. I am home 95% of the time throughout the week and on weekends. This leaves me very available to care for and accompany your pet. I have a fully fenced yard, we have lots of space inside and out and love to go on walks. I have 2 dogs that get along well with others and can keep your pets company. My kids will also be there to play with, care for, and show love to your pets everyday.
“We have left our dog with sarah and milo on multiple occasions and every time she comes back really happy and exhausted. Also everytime she sees sarah, she goes nuts and dosent care at all if we leave her ?. Our dog is very picky and we have never seen this same reaction with any other sitter so she must be having the time of her life with sarah ?. I would highly recommend sarah if you are looking for a sitter.”
“Jayden was great with Nayla. He walked her and knew alot about her breed. With so much knowledge he knew exactly how to handle Nayla. Jayden played tug of war with Nayla which is her favorite game. I know Nayla will love to spend more time with Jayden.”

Sara & Rick Z.Star Sitter
“Wenxiu is one of the kindest and most loving people I have ever met. Her deep affection for her dog, Lychee, is always evident. She treats walking Lychee as a joyful routine, taking her out three times a day—each walk lasting at least 30 minutes, and always makes sure Lychee doesn’t accidentally eat anything harmful. On weekends, she often takes Lychee hiking, and they have the best time together exploring nature. Whether it’s a backpacking trip, a camping adventure, or just a day out, Lychee is always by Wenxiu’s side. Her dedication and gentle care truly show the depth of her love.”

Wenge & Changhe H were fantastic! They took amazing care of our dog, Simba, and we really appreciated the regular updates and photos they sent while he was staying at their home. It was clear that Simba was happy and well-cared for. We would absolutely trust them again with Simba and highly recommend their services.
Andrea & family took great care of our boys again for their doggy daycare day. They enjoyed great walks, they were able to keep up with the endless playtime demanded by one and enjoyed the snuggle chill time the other enjoys. We appreciated that they were kindly able to accommodate some adjustments to the schedule also. Thanks again Andrea!
Sara watched my dog Levi a couple times now and I will for sure book with her again. Levi had an amazing time with Sara and it shows she has a love for dogs and she was so good with him. Sara was also able to help me with last minute arrangements, and sent me photos and updates through out the visit which helped me feel Levi was being taken care of.
I had a very pleasant experience with Bharti. She was very nice and handled my dog really nice. She was very responsive and kept me informed during her stay. I would highly recommend to avail Bharti's services. I would definitely go back to her for all my future dog day care needs.
This was our first time leaving our puppy with anyone for the day. We instantly felt at ease meeting Sarah, she has a very calming energy and we knew our pup was in good hands. Sarah was so great with Charlie. Played and gave him lots of outdoor time which he loves! He had a blast! We will certainly be regular clients of Sarah’s. Thank you again for taking such good care of Charlie 🙏🏼
Emily was excellent with our dog. We came as visitors to town for a few days and needed day care for our dog. In a new town with a new person our dog was understandably a little unsure, but by 1/2 hour in Emily's care the pictures show how relaxed and happy she had become. The second day when we showed up our dog was so excited about being at Emily's that she couldn't wait to get out of the car and greet her friend again. Our dog had a great time with Emily!
Shameel and Natasha are the best caretakers Penelope has ever had! This was the second time they looked after her, and she came home calm and happy—impressive for such an anxious dog! That alone speaks volumes. They’ll always be my first choice for Penelope’s care!
We had such a wonderful experience with Alyssia for our last-minute booking! From the moment we connected, she was an absolute delight to work with. Since this was our first time using Rover, we really appreciated all the positive reviews and the way she shared her plans for the day. You can tell it’s not just a job for her; she genuinely loves spending time with dogs, and that made us feel so at ease. She took Marley on a lovely big walk, treated him to a pup cup, and kept us updated with tons of adorable photos along the way. We couldn’t be happier and wholeheartedly recommend Alyssia to anyone looking for someone caring and reliable to take care of their furry friends! Thumbs up all around!
