“Ella is a great walking companion for our husky Sulley! She was there when we needed some extra help in a pinch and it helps that she's right in our neighbourhood! Ella definitely has a love for animals and I would definitely book her services again!”
About: I've owned pets for over 20 years. I have recent experience with puppy training and senior care. I've had my own cats and now a small dog. I'll treat your animals like my own and want them to be as happy as can be. I recently lost my cat of 18 years which broke my heart. I can't have another cat at the moment but I'd love to take care of yours! I love my little dog very much and I'd love to give your pet the care that it needs during the times you can't. I'm currently in graduate school a couple evenings per week and on Saturday mornings. My schedule is pretty flexible and I'm excited to meet your lovely pets! I have a flexible schedule, reliable vehicle, and am a trustworthy person. I have a small dog at home with a fenced in yard and she loves meeting new friends!
About: I’ve taken care of many different types of pets from cats to dogs to lizards. I have loved animals all my life and I plan to give all that love to your pet! I’m a high-level athlete a coach and work a retail service job and volunteer at a vet clinic because in my future, I hope to become a vet tech because I do love animals more than anything else in the world! I always ensure that my cats at home are well fed, have clean litter boxes and are given the love that they deserve. They are not allowed outside. They are indoor only.
“Jasmine has been so wonderful with our dogs. We are so grateful for her help with our two big boys during this period while I am having some health issues. Jasmine found a way to fit us into her schedule really quickly, answered messages right away, and was always extremely accommodating. Even when I forgot to update my address on Rover (and sent her to our old place) she was understanding and found time to still see our dogs. Plus our big boys can be alot to walk together but she handles them without any issue. I can tell the dogs get excited to see Jasmine and always get a bunch of good excercise with her. We have had minimal experience with Rover but Jasmine is definitely a great choice to care for the furbabies.”
“I have an 80lb reactive dog and have been nervous in the past when setting up dog care while I'm working. Sarah-Beth has made this an easy transition and earned mine and my dog's trust immediately. I have zero concern when she takes her for walks or interacts with her at all. 11/10 would recommend.”
“Maddie is absolutely amazing! My dog loves her so much, and I can always tell she’s happy and well cared for after spending time with Maddie. She goes above and beyond to make sure my dog gets lots of exercise and comes home super tired, which I really appreciate. I completely trust her and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable dog sitter/walker.”
“My dogs get so excited when Sam shows up to take them for a walk - I'm thinking they like her more than me. She's a very nice person, she's responsible, and you can tell she loves animals.”
About: I have a Weimaraner, so I am familiar with active dogs. I grew up with St. Bernards, so I get big dogs. I love walking or running in the river valley (live an active lifestyle). I am also a personal trainer & massage therapist. I am currently working part-time. I have quite a few breaks in my day as I have flexibility as I operate my own personal training & massage business. I understand what it takes to care for a dog (and cat). I keep always keep the pets safety as one of my first concerns.
“Thadora is amazing! She’s extremely reliable and responsible, and my dogs love her! She handles them well and I felt totally at ease knowing their daily walks were getting done by her. Highly recommend!”
About: I’ve been taking care of animals since I was 11 years old. My dog Tank was my best friend until he passed away a few years ago. Now any time I am excited for any time I get to spend with animals and I love caring for furry friends! I am currently working Wednesday to Friday and Sunday evenings but my mornings are generally free. I have Mondays off so I can do pet care any time that day! I am very friendly and eager to go for walks! I will treat your pet with the utmost care and respect your household and follow any rules you may have.
About: I have worked in the pet industry for 5 years, including working in a vet clinic as a Veterinary Medical Assistant. I am able to handle any behavioral or medical problem your dog may have. I can admisnister any medication as needed. Will also give specialized feeding if necessary. I've done some casual pet sitting for family and friends before. Having had animals all my life and absolutely love them. I know the importance of animals and I'll go above and beyond for the care of your animal(s). I am comfortable working with any breed, size and age of dog. As of now, my schedule is very flexible and will be updating profile of any changes. I am willing to come meet you and your dog before you make the decision to hire me. I want to make sure I am the right match for you and your dog. I'm currently not working at the moment and an online student. Which makes my schedule flexible and I'll be around around your pet at all times. I have an apartment with a cat that gets along with cats and dogs but she'll run away if she feels out of sorts. She is not aggressive at all. I live near by the River Valley, so I have access to beautiful walking trails to take your dog out for nice long walks, or whatever they may be able to tolerate. If you would like your animal crated you would just have to supply the crate. I'm also very flexible going to your home to look after your pet(s), whether it's to just drop by or stay overnight.
About: I have been taking care of our puppy for 7 years and volunteering for an animal shelter for half a year now. From providing nurturing and attentive care to dogs of all sizes. From energetic puppies to senior pets, I ensure that each one feels loved, safe, and happy. My approach is personalized, focusing on the unique needs of every pet. Whether it's playtime, walks, or special dietary requirements, your dog will be in good hands with me! I'm a full-time university student without a part-time job, so I can spend at least 4 hours a day to take care of the kids. I ensure flexibility to meet your babies' needs, whether it’s daily walks, feeding, or playtime. Weekends are fully open for more extended care. In my home, fur babies enjoy a safe, secure environment with plenty of space to play and rest. I prioritize safety, following any specific care instructions to ensure they feel comfortable and at ease. If caring for them in their homes, I maintain a calm, clean atmosphere, respecting both the babies' routine and the owner’s space.
“Tanya was amazing! She was responsive to messages, proactive with communicating, and made me feel really comfortable. I'd love to continue working with her if she will have us ☺️”
“Thank you Ava, just got up from some rest from my red eye, waking up to see he’s lil face sparkle warms my heart, I was able to say hello and throw him some treats this morning with the furbo :) and don’t worry I won’t be using the furbo without letting you know either, I was just making sure he was doing alright on my shuttle to the hotel :)”
About: I’ve cared for dogs across a good range of sizes and breeds — small dogs growing up, then medium and large breeds of my own as an adult, plus years of sitting for friends’ dogs along the way. That’s what made me the sitter my friends called first, and it’s the same care I bring to every walk and drop-in now. I’m especially comfortable with senior dogs, moving at their pace, but love dogs of all ages :) I currently work part time, which gives me a lot of flexibility during the week. That flexibility means I can build pet care around your dog's schedule rather than squeezing visits into a rigid routine, so you get consistent, reliable timing for whatever service you book. Since I offer walks and drop-in visits rather than boarding, all care happens at your home and in your neighborhood. During a visit, I check in on your dog, refresh water if needed, and keep them leashed and secure for the walk or bathroom break. Before I leave, I double-check that doors and gates are locked exactly as I found them. I also follow your instructions closely — whether it’s a specific routine, feeding schedule, or how to handle your dog in certain situations — so both you and your dog feel safe and comfortable with me in your home.
About: I am not only an animal lover but also a highly reliable and experienced caregiver. With a deep understanding of pet behavior, I provide tailored care to ensure that each pet feels safe, loved, and comfortable. Whether it’s through engaging walks, personalized playtime, or simply providing companionship. I have experience of over 10+ years raising and taking care of pets of all kinds. I have trained puppies born from our litters and watched them grow until we had to part our ways. I am able to give any medications needed for seniors! I was born and raised on the farm, these pets included over 9 different dogs from big to small, well over 5 different cats, horses, and cows, we even owned a lizard at one point. have moved away from home so I’m very much missing the company of my family dogs, hoping to make some new animal friends. My goal is to create an stress-free, enjoyable experience for both you and your pet, making me the trusted choice for your furry family members. Currently I’m working part time with children, I take them to school and I pick them up from school, so I'm available Monday-Thursday from 8:30am-2:30pm. And Fridays 8:30am-1:00pm. Weekends I’m willing to negotiate times! I create a secure, pet-friendly environment . I follow strict protocols for walks, ensuring that pets are always on a leash or in a secure area. I also maintain a clean and safe space indoors, and actively play with your pet to keep them entertained. If your family uses crates in your home, I ensure the crate is placed in a quiet, safe area where your pet can relax without feeling stressed. I never leave pets in crates for long periods and always make sure they have regular breaks for exercise, bathroom trips, and playtime.
