Brant was amazing with Biscuit. We received numerous photo and even video updates through his stay. Biscuit got lots of walks and freedom to roam in his yard and play with his dogs. He made sure Biscuit was comfortable with his dogs and was very patient with Biscuit who was scared at first. Now Biscuit has new best friends.

I recently sent my dog Blue for an overnight onboarding with Emily, who is a dog sitter, and I must say that I am thoroughly impressed with the care and attention provided by Emily and her family. Initially, Blue was a bit nervous and not doing well, but Emily took the initiative of sending us pictures of Blue getting comfortable in her house, which was reassuring. Throughout our vacation, Emily promptly sent the updates, which helped us stay informed. Emily and her family played with Blue at the park. When we went to pick up Blue, she was so happy and content that she even said goodbye to Emily's family before getting into the car. I highly recommend Emily's dog-sitting services to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter for their furry friend. Thank you, Emily and family!

We had the great opportunity to use Patricia’s fantastic services while we were away for 6 days from December 7th to 13th, 2021, and she managed to give us back our very happy and healthy dog! Thank you so much Patricia, as we know our Georgie is still very much a puppy, but you took it all in stride! And we appreciated the pictures while we were away too! Patricia provides an excellent, safe and very comfortable homey space for pups and we highly recommend her doggie daycare! Rover.com is the way to go for worry free care!

We literally cannot say enough about how good the care was for our 2 frenchies! Carrie and family took amazing care of them with frequent walks and play. I never once had to ask how they were doing as Carrie provided multiple updates everyday with lots of pictures and videos. We highly recommend her and would use her again in a heartbeat! Can't thank her enough for the stress free 2 weeks she provided us!

Lylle was absolutely amazing! He looked after my German Shepherd, Alpha, for about a week, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. From the start, he was incredibly kind, communicative, and professional. He also has such a wonderful family, and Alpha clearly loved being around them he looked so happy and comfortable the entire time. Lylle took exceptional care of Alpha, regularly sending me photos and updates, which gave me so much peace of mind knowing he was in great hands. Lylle made the whole process effortless. I would 100% recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter. Truly a 10/10 experience! ⭐️

About: Hello there! Ever since I was a baby, I've been surrounded by the delightful presence of dogs and cats. My passion for these furry companions runs deep, and it all began with my best friend, a charming German Spitz named Russell. Back home, our family is proudly owned by a lively pack of five dogs, including four spirited German Spitzes and one playful American Bully. I'm the kind of person who eagerly visits friends' houses or parties just for the opportunity to spend quality time with their pets. What can I say? I'm an unapologetic pet lover through and through! For me, pet sitting is more than just a job; it's a calling and a source of immense joy. It allows me to extend my love and care to other people's beloved furry family members. When I take on the role of a pet sitter, it's not about earning a paycheck; it's about ensuring that these precious animals are showered with the same affection, attention, and comfort that I provide to my own pets back home. (I miss them so much ever since I moved to Canada!) Being a pet sitter gives me the chance to create a positive, stress-free experience for both pets and their owners. It's about forming a bond, building trust, and providing peace of mind to those who entrust me with their beloved companions. Every tail wag, purr, and happy bark is a testament to the meaningful connections I make with these wonderful animals. So, if you're looking for more than just a pet sitter – someone who will treat your furry family members with the same devotion and care as their own – you've found the right person. Let's embark on this pet-loving journey together! 🐾❤️ #PetLover #FurryFriendsForever As a student and part-time worker, I understand the importance of managing multiple responsibilities. But let me assure you, pet sitting is more than just a task; it's a genuine pleasure and stress-relieving therapy for me. My flexible schedule allows me to seamlessly integrate pet sitting into my routine, whether it's a short walk, playtime, or simply providing companionship. Spending time with pets brings me immense joy and serves as a refreshing break from my work and study demands. Your pets will be in loving hands, and I'm here to make your life easier while finding my own happiness in the process. 🐾❤️ #PetSitter By choosing me as your pet sitter, you're ensuring that your pets receive personalized care tailored to their routines and preferences. I'll provide them with the same level of love and attention they're accustomed to, all within the familiar surroundings of your home. From feeding and walking to playtime and cuddles, I'll follow your instructions diligently to maintain their daily routines and keep them happy and content. Your pets won't have to endure the stress of a new environment or the anxiety of being separated from you.

About: Hi! I’m Joanna, a dedicated dog lover based in Markham, and I work from home full-time—so your pup will always have company and supervision. I have two poodles of my own (one is 9 years old and the other is 2), so I’m very experienced with dogs of different ages, energy levels, and personalities. Caring for dogs is already part of my daily life, and I truly treat every dog like family. I live in a detached house with a fully fenced backyard, providing a safe and secure space for dogs to play and explore. Inside the home, dogs are free to roam—no crating unless specifically requested. I aim to create a calm, home-like environment where your dog can feel relaxed and happy. 🐾 What I offer: - Dog boarding & daycare for small dogs only(under 25 lbs) - Maximum 2 dogs at the same time - A safe, clean, and cage-free home environment - Supervision throughout the day (WFH) - Access to a fully fenced backyard - Regular playtime, walks, and lots of attention - Daily photo/video updates I understand that every dog has unique routines and needs, and I’m happy to follow your instructions closely—whether it’s feeding schedules, special care, or medication. My goal is to make sure your dog feels comfortable, loved, and stress-free while you’re away. Looking forward to meeting you and your furry friend! 🐕💛 I'm working from home full time from Monday to Friday (not so busy) and I'm available for the weekend as well, so pretty much available 24/7 I have a detached house with fully fenced yard, I let your babies roam around freely in the house (unless you want to create them). Also I have two lovely and very friendly poodles of my own which will keep your fur babies accompanied all the time.

I can’t recommend Nikita enough! She took amazing care of my dog, Yoshi, while we were away for 11 days. Nikita truly goes above and beyond—she sent daily updates, photos, and videos, which gave us peace of mind knowing Yoshi was happy and well cared for. It was clear that Yoshi loved being with her, and he even seemed to miss her afterwards! What impressed me most is that she checked in on Yoshi even after we brought him back home, showing how much she genuinely cares. At her place, dogs feel completely at home. I would highly recommend Nikita to anyone looking for a loving and responsible caregiver for their dog.

Fantastic people! Emily and her family are so nice and I knew straight away our cat Fern was in great care. She hadn't been eating much leading up to her stay and Emily did everything she could do encourage her by giving her different food, heating it up etc. They also kept us updated with lots of photos and videos - Fern was clearly comfortable immediately and sat on their laps! We really appreciate everything they did and will definitely leave Fern with Emily again! Thank you!
