“Niroji was great to deal with and took very good care of Ella, providing us with constant updates. We would be happy to deal with Niroji again.”

“John and Vanessa are amazing, from our meet and greet to the walk they are both so kind and patient. Our boy can be anxious on walks but John was great giving him time to get comfortable and played with him. Will definitely re-book and highly recommend them”

About: Hey I’m Charmaine ♡ I’ve had years of experience taking care of dogs. I love playing with dogs and taking them out for walks. My friends/neighbours have trusted me to take care of their pets when they’re busy. I work from home during the weekdays, so I’m usually available throughout the day. Feel free to message me if you’re ever looking for someone to care for your pups for the day/overnight - I’d be happy to help! 😊 I have a friendly pup of my own who is sweet, calm, and easygoing. She loves meeting and socializing with other dogs, and she’ll be happy to keep your pups company during their stay. 🐶💕

“thank you so much”

“Abhishek is simply the best! Not only are the walks consistent, but he has also been incredibly accommodating to our schedule. Maggi is always looking forward to go for walk with him.”

“Bernice was great! First time using Rover and she was flexible and easy to communicate with. She invited Zack and I to come and meet her outside her place so we could meet her dog Gala before they went off together. Zack had not eaten that morning and Bernice was kind enough to spoil him by hand feeding him! -I think both were entertained for the day! I have no hesitation in recommending Bernice look after your pet.”

About: My journey started as a volunteer at dog and cat shelters before I have any pets myself. I’ve cared for pets as a foster, TrustedHousesitter, and a cat mom for over 4 years. I also grew up with my grandma’s dogs, so I’m familiar with both cats and dogs of different personalities and needs. I understand how important it is to create a calm, loving, and consistent environment while you’re away. I work from home, which means your pet will have plenty of company and attention throughout the day. My flexible schedule allows for regular feeding, playtime, and cuddles - or quiet companionship if that’s what they prefer. I live in a spacious townhouse that’s clean, quiet, and pet-safe, perfect for boarding or drop-in visits. If I’m staying at your home, I’ll treat it with the same respect and care I give my own space, ensuring your pet feels comfortable in a familiar environment.

About: ONLY 1 fur friend each time. Pets are families. They deserve love and care. My mom had a cat, we play, eat, sleep together. He taught me how to enjoy life no matter what you have experienced or experiencing. My friend had a dog, I always go visit. We played and went out for walks often. Thank you so much for picking me and share your cute family with me. I only accept 1 fur friend or 2 from the same family each time so I can put all my attention on him/her. Loves hiking when weather permits,5km min. For 🐶 will provide daily walking data so you know how long we walked and how much energy we burned. We will go out for a walk in the morning time, lunch time and dinner time. More short 15-20 potty breaks in between as well. 3 times of walking of 30 min would be by default. On weekends will go hiking with 5km min. I lived in a pet friendly condo and the neighborhood is very quiet to take a walk. There are two community parks nearby to visit. When walking in the neighborhood and condo, will always meet at least 1 or 2 pet friend.

About: I primarily focus on cat care and have hands-on experience taking care of my own cat. I understand daily routines such as feeding, litter cleaning, and interactive play. I am patient, gentle, and attentive to a cat’s behavior and comfort level. I am experienced with playful and curious cats, and I always ensure interactions are safe and stress-free. I prefer working with cats to provide a calm, clean, and comfortable environment where they can feel secure and well cared for. My schedule is flexible, and I am able to dedicate consistent time to caring for cats throughout the day. I can provide regular check-ins, feeding, playtime, and attention based on your cat’s routine. I maintain a very clean and hygienic environment. I vacuum daily and clean the litter box at least twice a day to ensure comfort and cleanliness. I also provide regular grooming care, including cleaning around the eyes and face, wiping paws, and maintaining overall hygiene. I pay close attention to small details to keep cats comfortable and well cared for. When needed, I use pet-safe natural insect repellent before outdoor exposure and keep up with routine parasite prevention to protect against fleas and ticks.

About: Hello, I'm Ansley. I've been looking after my own cats since they were three months old. I have 2 cats at home and I’ve taken care of cats with special medical needs. As a devoted pet lover, you can trust that your beloved companion will receive exceptional care and affection while you’re not around, ensuring their happiness and well-being. For me, pet care is a big part of my daily life—it’s something I genuinely enjoy. Each day, I make sure there’s time set aside for feeding, fresh water, and playtime, or just cuddling on the couch. I clean up after them regularly, like tidying up litter boxes or bedding, and if they need grooming or medication, I handle that too. It’s not just a task for me—it’s a chance to connect with them and make sure they’re happy and comfortable. I work their routines into my day naturally, so it feels seamless and personal for both of us. I ensure all pets feel safe, loved, and well-cared for in any environment. Whether in my home or a client’s, I prioritize maintaining their routines, providing daily feeding and hydration, exercise and play, and hygiene maintenance, such as cleaning litter boxes and grooming when needed. I recognize that each pet has unique needs and personalities, so please share your pet’s routines and preferences so we can create a comfortable, stress-free environment tailored just for them.

About: I've cared for cats and dogs for over 2 years and run a full pet-loving household of my own — a Border Collie puppy, a Siberian Forest Cat, and a British Shorthair. Raising a high-energy puppy means I'm comfortable with leash work, crate routines, and active breeds, and I'm patient and gentle with seniors who need a slower pace. I can give oral medication, handle nail trims and brushing, and I make my own healthy dehydrator treats. I'm also fully bilingual in English and Mandarin. I work from home full-time, so pet care isn't squeezed into spare time — it's my main focus all day, every day of the week. Your pet is rarely left alone for long. I keep consistent feeding, walking, and play times, and I'm happy to do up to 4 walks a day plus regular backyard play. Because I'm flexible and always home, I can easily match my routine to your pet's normal schedule rather than forcing them into a new one. Safety is the first thing I set up. I have pet gates on the stairs of every floor, so cats and dogs are kept completely separate and never mix. Boarding cats stay upstairs, where each family's cat gets their own private, dog-free room, while dogs stay on the main floor and in a fully fenced, escape-proof backyard. I currently board cats already, I monitor every guest's appetite, litter, energy, and mood daily, and I can give oral medication exactly on schedule.

“Henry enjoyed his walk today and went happily with Carmen, despite it being the first time they met. Good to know he also behaved himself on the walk!”

About: Hi! My name is Monique. I bring genuine love, patience, and connection to every animal I care for. Animals are more than pets, they’re family. I treat the ones I care for with the same respect, attention, and affection I would my own. I am trained in dog CPR and First Aid, which gives owners added peace of mind knowing their pet is in safe and capable hands. I also grew up with a beautiful black and brown male Doberman Pinscher named Ninja. I’m comfortable with larger breeds and understand the importance of structure, exercise, and attentive care. My experience started young, caring for family members’ and neighbors’ pets, and I’ve always loved being around animals. Ninja regularly had playdates with other dogs, which helped me learn even more about socialization, behavior, and how different dogs interact. I enjoy teaching dogs new tricks, reinforcing positive habits, and keeping them active through walks, play, and mental stimulation. My favorite games to play with dogs are hide and seek and fetch. I also love to see how happy they get when they hear the word "walk". The excitement is very adorable and in return brings me great joy. I don't currently own a dog, but I’m happy to regularly help care for two beloved family dogs who visit on weekends. A sweet female senior Shih Tzu and an energetic six-year-old female Giant Schnauzer. I treat them like my own, and caring for dogs of different ages, sizes, and personalities has given me valuable hands on experience. From providing gentle attention and comfort to senior pets to keeping active dogs engaged and happy, I understand that every dog has unique needs and deserves loving, reliable care. I am available full time for your pet. Pet care fits well into my daily routine since I have a flexible schedule and can provide consistent attention throughout the day. I’m available for boarding on both weekdays and weekends and can accommodate different care needs as required. Pets in my care are provided with a safe, structured, and attentive environment. I provide trustworthy care and make sure every walk and visit is safe, positive, and stress free. I can also care for pets in your home, following all instructions and specific needs you provide.

“Thank you so much again, both of you 🙏 For helping walk Caeser tonight! It was great meeting Fuji as well 🐾🥰 I'm sure they both had fun and will definitely book with you again in the future!”

Virtual meets are also offered under certain circumstances. I ask a list of important questions during screening to make sure your pet and my space are a great match. This helps pets feel comfortable early on and lets me better understand their personality, routine, and care style. It makes the whole experience smoother, safer, and way more fun for everyone! Certified in Dog & Cat First Aid, I provide attentive and responsible care, ensuring your pet is always in good hands. I’m happy to accommodate any special needs. Every pet deserves personalized love and care! First-aid Skills & Capabilities ✅: - Oral medication administration - Monitor basic vitals (breathing and heart rate) - Do quick ABC wellness checks (airway, breathing, circulation) - CPR and anti-choking steps - Support first-aid care (wound cleaning, bandaging, + minor bleeding control) - Adjust to special needs *Please note I am not comfortable administering injected medications (insulin, NSAIDS, arthritis meds, etc.) due to lack of hands-on experience* Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities.
