About: I've been taking care of dogs most of my life. I have experience caring for all sorts of dogs of any age. I do have a 2 year old pet beagle girl named Macy. She's very kind and loves people and dogs alike. I live in a 3 bedroom house with my partner. It has a fenced yard in a safe south side neighbourhood by Ellerslie Rd and is a few steps away from a park. I can walk, feed, bathe, and host overnight boarding. I love dogs and that translates to happy dog experiences! I have a flexible work schedule, so I am able to easily fit your busy lifestyle. I have an open availability in the spring/summer and in the fall/winter I work part time. I love going for long walks daily throughout my neighbourhood. I have two baby gates that prevent dogs from leaving the living room. I have other rooms, including a finished basement, that can be used to separate dogs who don't get along with each other. I have a variety of treats and toys.
“Anick is my favourite cat sitter, but this time went above and beyond. There was a mix-up with keys, the auto feeder, the auto litter box, everything that could go wrong did - and Anick handled it all. I always have the utmost trust she will put my kitties' safety and well-being first, even over Christmas. Thank you so much Anick, from all of us!!!”
“We really appreciated her patience with Benji. He was very shy and nervous with someone new, but she took her time, sat on the floor to help him feel comfortable, and never rushed him. Even though he wasn't ready for a walk, she made sure he had a chance to go outside and kept us updated throughout the visit. We'd happily book with her again.”
“Madalynn was excellent. I have a very anxious, jumpy Great Dane that Madalynn met, and she was very calm about his frustration and anxiety. She worked with him using treats and was able to settle him. She never showed any fear at all! I will have her back again!”
About: Hi everyone!! Please use my promo code to get money off your first rover experience! CADES50914 https://www.rover.com/sit/cades50914 I've been an animal lover for as long as I can remember, caring for family and friends' dogs and cats with a genuine love for spending time with them. Pets have always been part of my life, and I truly enjoy being active with them, whether it's going for walks or even runs with my furry friends. I am currently a full-time student at the University of Toronto, but my afternoons and weekends are free to play, walk, and check in on your pups and cats. I am very flexible with times and can accommodate most needs. When checking in on your pets, I ensure they're comfortable and well-cared for in their familiar environment. I stick to their routines, providing food, water, and any necessary medications. I also take time for play, cuddles, and walks to keep them happy and active. I aim to create a calm, loving atmosphere so they feel secure while you're away.
“Samantha is an excellent sitter, she had connection with my cat at the first sight, she came 15 days in a raw, she also helped me watering my plants and gave the medicine required to my cat, when I came back home the water fountain, feeder and litter were well organized, I totally recommend Samantha, I couldn't have left my cat in better hands.”
About: Its hard enough to leave a pet with a stranger I'm hoping to make that a little bit easier. Besides taking care of personal pets since I was 10yrs old, in recent years I've taking a liking to babysitting friends dogs both at their home or mine. I have a daughter who I consider when looking at my schedule and as long as we have a friendly bunch I would be taking her along. I've taught her to respect animals just as much as I do and pet personal space is considered into that. I have a small fenced yard, but plenty of walking trails around. I don't have any pets of my own besides the 2 dogs and cat at my moms that stayed with my family when I moved out. I like to engage with the animals, if I'm coming to your house or otherwise to care for your animal I want them to feel seen and loved in the stressful moments while the most important people in their life are away.
About: I have been taking care of dogs for so long. I grew up with dogs in my home and currently have 2 beautiful huskies whom I love so much. I will take care of your pup as my own, and will provide any special assistance as well. I work from home, so I am available morning, afternoon and evenings. I will take your pup for walks atleast 3 times during the day and they would have supervision throughout the day. I have a spacious home, and my two pups will give your dog company. I can crate your dog as well if needed or requested by you. Otherwise they are allowed to be anywhere in my home
About: I am flexible with all my services, including house sitting, drop-ins, and dog walking. I have several years’ experience with dog walking and house sitting (including drop-in style), and I am an athlete so I have the physical strength necessary to handle large dogs. I am currently a professional volleyball player so while I’m not overseas I really enjoy leaving space in my schedule to dog sit! I have completed an internship position at a wildlife rehabilitation facility (WildNorth) and have a degree in conservation biology, so I am very passionate about animals! Growing up with multiple pets, I learned early on how to appreciate and handle them. I have also raised and trained a puppy myself, and I’m an amateur training enthusiast. I would love to meet your pet and I hope you consider me for your pet care needs! I’m currently coaching volleyball part time so I’m typically free most of the time. The longest I typically would have to leave your dog alone is for 2.5 hours when I have a couple coaching sessions. I always communicate clearly what the expectations are for care, such as how your dog is on leash, if I need to watch for any escape artists, or any other concerns or quirks your dog may have!
About: I have experience caring for dogs, cats, and other pets, including feeding, walking, playtime, administering basic medications, maintaining routines, and providing lots of attention, patience, and affection. As a university student, pet care fits easily into my routine because I have a flexible schedule. My flexible schedule allows for me to provide consistent walks, bathroom breaks, playtime, and companionship to the animal I am caring for. Whether in my home or in my client’s home, I take caring for pets very seriously. I make sure to provide a safe, clean, and comfortable environment while following each pet’s individual routine. I think it is important to maintain the pet’s routine to ensure the pet gets enough exercise, playtime, bathroom breaks, and proper administration of medication. I also respect client’s homes and always leave them clean and secure.
“This was my first time to have someone other than a family member look in on my semi-elderly cat while I was away. I'm so pleased that I chose Tracy for my little bub's daily checkups. Tracy was there every day on time and this made for the best experience for my shy elderly cat. I would definitely book Tracy in the future.”
About: Hello my name is Trish, I have had a love for dogs since I was a child my first Experience taking care of pets was my first hamster fluffy and my first dog peewee and from there my love of pets was born and I have had many different kind of animals over the years. I started taking care of neighbors pets when I was about 7 and helped every summer on friends and neighbors farms near by. By the time I was in Jr high I started work program for school at a veterinary clinic and stayed on till after high school. I started working at pet cetra and learned grooming and pet photography. Up until recently I had pets but when they passed I haven't seem to find what I'm looking for so I decided to see about pet sitting. All animals will be given baths if needed and any special needs will be taken care of. I've taken care of quite a few special needs animals and welcome them with open arms. Any special food or treat needs will be discussed with the pet parent and delt with according to there wishes. Fresh water and food will be given at times set by owners and treats at owners decretion. If I'm caring for an over night pet guest they will be welcome to sleep on the bed with me but I do ask that pet owners bring at least one item with there smell on it as well as there bed so they feel safe and comfortable at night time. And one toy of there choice is request as well so they feel comfortable playing with it. I'm currently not working due to a medical condition, and have a lot if free time on my hands I get up fairly early and go for a walk after my coffee, relax a bit and then go for a another walk. Since I have been off work I have been looking to fill my time and this seems like a perfect fit for an animal lover. In my home animal have free roam no couch bed or floor is off limits to them. They would be treated like family and loved as such. They will be spoiled rotten with me as I love all animals. I do request one item with owners scent on it as well as a first time meet to make sure animals feel comfortable being with me. I would never want an animal to feel scared being here.

“Umber is amazingly patient with our reactive nervous girly! She’s patient and calm, and knows the most important ways to deal with reactive dogs like letting them come to you, not making eye contact until they’re ready, etc. By the end of the visit, Hannah was cuddled up on the couch with her. We are so incredibly grateful we found her.”

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
