“Dorotea went above and beyond with my little Larry! She loved him like her own! He was so comfortable with his first stay away from home! I was very nervous and she put my mind at ease immediately! The updated pictures and videos were priceless. I would highly recommend Dorotea, you can tell she loves what she does. Larry will be looking forward to future visits with his new friend.”
“Super accommodating for a last minute puppy sitter! My wife and brother in-law were able to meet them in person at the park and had nothing but amazing things to say. Highly recommend!”
“Joshua took really good care of my baby Tofu! They went on at least 2 walks a day and my dog was also really happy to spend time with his dog Loki. I got updates almost everyday which was very reassuring knowing that Tofu was having a good time. Definitely will book again with Joshua....a real star dog sitter!”
“We have had our dog board with Mandy as well as go to her house for daycare. Mandy genuinely loves & cares for our dog as if he was her own. She is reliable and organized as well. We have used Mandy for over a year and she has never once canceled on us. We highly recommend Mandy!”
“Charlie always has a great time with Colleen and family. Updates and lots of pictures on how Charlie is doing . Really appreciate the care, attention Charlie gets coupled with play times with Henry. Thank you!”
“We are beyond grateful to Melissa and her wonderful family for taking such exceptional care of our beloved Milo. From the moment we dropped him off, we felt a deep sense of peace knowing he was in loving, capable hands. Throughout the entire week, Melissa kept us updated with sweet photos and thoughtful messages that truly put our hearts at ease. It was clear that Milo wasn’t just being looked after—he was being welcomed into their home like one of their own. Whether it was cozy snuggles, playtime, or peaceful walks, he looked happy, relaxed, and so loved. Their home is warm, calm, and filled with kindness—everything a pup could hope for when away from their usual surroundings. Milo returned to us happy, healthy, and with a wag in his tail that said it all. We feel so lucky to have found Melissa and her family. They are truly a rare gem in the world of dog-sitting. Thank you for giving Milo such a beautiful little vacation—we can’t wait to see you again!”
“Thanks so much again Pam for taking care of Lambros during our vacay. Even buying him boots so you could walk him and also using your baby boy's diaper when Lambros diaper was all consumed. Thank you for all the love for Lambros! We really appreciate it!”
“I found myself in need of someone to look after Livvy on pretty short notice. I was a little bit worried because she’s not the greatest on leash walker and she’s also never stayed with anybody but friends and family, so staying with a stranger is new to her. Richard and Melissa were great, the first night when she was showing signs of being a little bit anxious they insured that she got out for a decompressing walk and then they took her to an area of the house that was a little less stimulating so she could have some quiet time. Knowing that someone was picking up on her cues was really reassuring for Me and also for Liivvy. They were very communicative the whole time she was staying there making sure that I got photos and they let me know how she was settling in. I would have zero hesitations about recommending them or booking with them again.”
“Our Heeler had never stayed with anyone else before and is typically a bit of a nervous / shy boy. We have a trip coming up and needed to find him a suitable family to stay with while we are away for a week. After our first meet and greet which went super well, we decided to book an overnight stay so our dog could get used to Tejaswini & Saumik's home before leaving him there for a week. I have nothing but positive things to say about Tejaswini & Saumik. From the moment I met them it was very obvious that they were very experienced with dogs. They knew how to properly and slowly introduce my dog to theirs. They were patient with mine and gave him space when he needed it. They took it slow and let him lead the speed. He was stressed out about being away from me (first time in his 4 year life) and confused. Saumik even went so far as to set up a bed for himself on the main floor so he could stay close to my boy to help get him more settled for the night ❤️. By the next day my boy was following Tejaswini everywhere and started to settle in. I know that with a bit more time he will enjoy his stay and will start to play with their dog Stewie (who is such a patient and good boy). Tejaswini & Saumik's home is well set up for caring for your dog. They have gates and panels that they can modify to keep the dogs safe and give them their own area/space as needed. They also have a large fenced in and escape proof yard. I was also happy with the communication and amount of updates I received from them. They're very quick to reply and sent videos and pictures regularly. I know that when my boy goes for his one week stay that he will settle in and be well taken care of which will really allow me to enjoy my trip with my husband and kids. Thank you Tejaswini & Saumik! I'm so glad we found you!”
“Jayson and Lovely were excellent caregivers for our dog. They have a great house with lots of room to roam, excellent communication including pictures, and most importantly, they gave regular care and attention. We would highly recommend them.”
“Cady took amazing care of Nashville! I received videos and pictures of him every night which made me feel comfortable on my 10+ days away. He looked so happy. Thank you!!!!!”
“Diana and Steven are wonderful people with the kindest souls. My Hagen, due to his lack of experience with children, doesn't get along well with them, but at Diana's house, he fully opened up to the children for the first time, exposing his belly. Regular walks, attention, and care—your pet will feel like he's at summer camp. I highly recommend Diana. Your pet will be happy in good hands.”
“Lovely couple! They took great care of Cleo, she clearly enjoyed her time with them! I also appreciate the frequent updates and cute photos from their little adventures ❤️ I would definitely reccomended.”
“I had such a great experience leaving my dog, Cleo, with this amazing family over the weekend! From the moment I dropped her off, I could tell she was in good hands. They treated her like one of their own, and she spent the weekend running around and playing with their family dogs. They also made sure to keep me updated with photos, which was such a nice touch and really gave me peace of mind. Cleo looked so happy in every picture—tail wagging, big smiles, and clearly having the time of her life. When I picked her up, she was relaxed and content, which told me everything I needed to know. I’m so thankful for the loving care they provided and wouldn’t hesitate to book with them again”
“Amazing, as always. 10/10, Simone & Adam are some of the best humans I’ve had the privilege of meeting in my life. So having them care for my pup for extended periods of time is truly a blessing. I’m very thankful for them.”
About: I’ve had pets my whole life, and shared the past 15 years every single day with my dogs. I wouldn’t change it for the world. I’m available most days and evenings with notice.

I have many tropical plants; only pets who know boundaries with plants can be accommodated. There is no smoking or drinking here, as I like to maintain a quiet home. We have no children or frequent visitors. Pets are fed twice daily or as needed, and walked 3-4x per day based on needs. Bike rides offered for high energy dogs. I live close to a leash/ off leash dog park. I can offer basic grooming, training, and exercise as needed. I’m proficient with administering medication.
“Madison was incredible with my anxious pup. She introduced her slowly and allowed her to naturally feel comfortable. She had a blast and I knew she was in good hands from the start. Madison is extremely professional, responds in a timely manner and very reassuring that her care is of the highest quality. I got multiple updates throughout her stay of pictures and videos. My pup came back so calm and happy. I would absolutely book again and recommend for other dog owners.”

“Worakarn was great with my cat Enzo. I received pictures at every visit and updates letting me know how things were going with him. I’m super grateful to Worakarn and wouldn’t hesitate to contact him again to take care of my little Enzo.”
“Kamil is very attentive to our dogs' needs and has priven to go well beyond expectations of an in-home sitter to include bringing JB home when my flight arrival prevented me from picking him up. Kamil listens closely to instructions and makes his best effort to maintain our dogs' relaxation and minimize routine disruption. We are very happy with the service he provides and is our go-to when considering an in-home sitter.”
“Cecilia took great care of my 2 cats and my house while I was away on vacation. I was a bit nervous to have someone stay in my home with my kitties but I would recommend Cecilia to friends and family in a heartbeat!”
“Our kitties loved Brena and we did too! Communication was great with lots of photos and cute updates. The cats enjoyed tons of play and snuggle time and were fed on schedule with litters scooped regularly. She was able to independently problem solve and showed respect for our home, leaving it exactly how she found it. We have already booked Brena for our next vacation!”

I aim to treat each clients dog as if they are my own, whether we are in your backyard, out exploring the neighbourhood, or at the local dog park, , I make their safety and enjoyment my top priority!
About: I had cats as a child and have a whole lot of cat lovers as friends and family so I do have experience with cats. I married a man allergic to cats so my cat Momma days are over. But that does not mean I cannot cuddle, play and feed your furry feline. Give me a chance to meet your furry friend and be confident it will be a good time for us both.
“Pearl is hands-down the best cat sitter we could wish for! She was terrific with our cat Kit. He's a very shy cat, but loves his bestie Pearl. Pearl sent us lots of photo and video updates during our two-week vacation. It's been such a relief to know that our cat (and our apartment) is in the best hands. We're looking forward to another cat sitting arrangement in the future!”
“Jessa was great with our older, finicky cat (Tinkerbell)! We were completely comfortable leaving Tink AND our house in Jessa's care. This is the first time we used ANY type of house/pet sitting service and we will DEFINITELY do it again! The peace of mind is worth every penny! Thanks Jessa for making us feel so at ease so we could have a badly needed vacation!”

If you have a specific way of doing things that you'd like continued I am more then happy to do so. My main concern is that your family member is well taken care of whether it be for an hour, a day or several days at a time. I have a schedule that is constantly changing. I am doing a training program come early 2025 so my schedule will be tighter than it is now but I will still try to arrange you to fit in. Keeping your pet safe is a big concern. I always check collars and leashes prior to use to ensure their functionality. I do have a dog who loves playing with others if yours needs a companion.

“My dog has a great time with Mandy! She plays with him, walks, him, challenges his mind, and even preps treats for him in advance. We use her service on a recurring basis and suspect that our dog will eventually not want to come home because he's having too much fun.”
About: Caring patient pet lover with life long history of living with and caring for dogs. Experience with cats as well. Have studied and worked in behavior therapy field in past (not offering as a service now, but am knowledgeable of techniques). Have a loving and playful boston terrier cross at home that loves company and snuggles. Slow, guided introductions are important for both myself and my pup- safety, security and fun is key! Crate training (or at least familiarity with ex-pen gating) is important for overnight stays as I may have to step out for short periods and dont feel comfortable leaving unbonded dogs alone together without supervision! I run a small business from my home and set my own works hours so I am extremely flexible. Open and honest communication is very important to me! I work for myself, from home so I have no predetermined schedule that requires me to leave the house - I can be very flexible We have 2 different fenced areas behind the house - one small with doggy door, the other full yard size. Plus we have unfenced acreage beyond that which our dogs are invisible fence trained on, is good for leashed exercise for untrained dogs

“Tyra made our trip to Winnipeg amazing!!! We have a high anxiety rescue dog and her and her home and her pup made him feel calm and relaxed while we left him all day to do things. In fact - taking him back on day 2 - he was excited to get back to her and didn’t give us a second glance. She is a dog whisperer who I can’t recommend enough. Thank u so much Tyra - our time in Winnipeg wouldn’t have been possible without you.”

About: I have been around and cared for dogs my whole life. My experience in dog care experience is spread among elderly dogs, puppies and everything in between. I am currently awaiting the start of my second year of university thus, my schedule is quite flexible for the time being. May it be morning or evening, I will be available. I believe pets are to be given plenty of time to exercise in a safe and controlled environment to provide maximum enrichment. Alongside this, nourishing and nutrient rich meals are a standard of mine which I hope to provide.

About: I’ve been a lifelong dog lover and have had the privilege of raising both rescue dogs and a purebred Golden Retriever over the years. Each one has shaped how I care for animals—with patience, understanding, and a lot of love. In our home, pets truly are family. Their happiness, comfort, and well-being are always a top priority, just as if they were children. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your dog, and I take that responsibility seriously. I’m known for being kind, conscientious, and reliable—not just with dogs, but with people too. I’ll always communicate clearly, show up when I say I will, and make sure you feel confident your pet is in good hands. I’m currently working part-time, which allows me to dedicate quality time and attention to the pets in my care. My approach is simple—I care for every pet as if they were my own.

About: I have in-total 5 Yorkshire Terriers back in my country since I was 7 years old. (I grew up with them and slept with them). I took care of them (bath, groom, feed, medication administration, walk, play) I was the handler when they went to dog show, I trained them by myself since they were a puppy. I have experience in grooming (advanced for Yorkshire terrier), walking the dog (small and medium dog particularly), training (basic commands), and taking care of senior or sick dogs, Since I moved to Canada, I have been taking care of my friends' dogs and cats whenever they need a sitter. In addition to my experience with dogs, I have experience caring for kittens, cats and senior cats. My passion for animals has led me to volunteer for pet-related jobs. I volunteered at WHS to take care of the cats there. If there had been a position for caring for dogs, I would have taken it in a heartbeat since I have more experience with dogs. However, there were no available positions so it was unfortunate but the opportunity helped me to showcase my skills in interacting with cats. It is very easy for me to get along with animals whether it be dogs or cats, I love to interact with all of them. I'm currently available most days of the week after 11 am, however, I would love to work out a schedule that works the best for you and your dogs! My home have a fenced small yard and unfenced big yard. The small yard is big enough for small-medium dogs to run around. I will let the owner to choose what is best for their dogs.

About: I have had dogs and cats since I was a young age. I have taken care of both animals for family and friends, such as walking and pet sitting. I currently have a full time job, I would be able to walk in the morning or evening depending on my work schedule. If it were to be a dog sitting position I would prefer to stay in the home. If not I will make sure to get there first thing in the morning and go after work to spend time with your animal. Currently my apartment does not allow animals in the building. In that case I could come to your house and if you don’t have a fenced in yard I will ensure a leash is always on your pet while walking and playing outside. Also I would want to do a meet and greet before I start sitting to ensure your dog is comfortable with me!
About: Lovely to meet you! I'm an animal lover and work from home in the field of marketing and public relations so I love heading out for walks when I take breaks and its so nice to have puppy / dog company during the day. :) We owned a Standard Poodle growing up and an Arabian horse. These two taught me a great deal about connection, training and having lots of fun. I am a walker and a runner so I’m very active outdoors. On rainy or cold days, we have a covered outdoor patio so pups can get fresh air and avoid the rain and cold. On those days, playing catch inside is a lot of fun. I think it’s great for there to be some consistency with the time they spend with their owner(s) so if there is a treat they like or something they like to do for fun, just let me know. My work does involve some travel so I don’t have a dog of my own right now, but I love spending time with them. Contact me if you’re interested in getting together!
About: I have been pet sitting and dog walking part time for about nine months. I have receive tons of positive feedback and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals.

Two cats at home that don’t really mind dogs. Lots of comfy spots for them to sleep and I am available for walks every few hours.

“Joshua took really good care of my baby Tofu! They went on at least 2 walks a day and my dog was also really happy to spend time with his dog Loki. I got updates almost everyday which was very reassuring knowing that Tofu was having a good time. Definitely will book again with Joshua....a real star dog sitter!”
“Charlie always has a great time with Colleen and family. Updates and lots of pictures on how Charlie is doing . Really appreciate the care, attention Charlie gets coupled with play times with Henry. Thank you!”
“We are beyond grateful to Melissa and her wonderful family for taking such exceptional care of our beloved Milo. From the moment we dropped him off, we felt a deep sense of peace knowing he was in loving, capable hands. Throughout the entire week, Melissa kept us updated with sweet photos and thoughtful messages that truly put our hearts at ease. It was clear that Milo wasn’t just being looked after—he was being welcomed into their home like one of their own. Whether it was cozy snuggles, playtime, or peaceful walks, he looked happy, relaxed, and so loved. Their home is warm, calm, and filled with kindness—everything a pup could hope for when away from their usual surroundings. Milo returned to us happy, healthy, and with a wag in his tail that said it all. We feel so lucky to have found Melissa and her family. They are truly a rare gem in the world of dog-sitting. Thank you for giving Milo such a beautiful little vacation—we can’t wait to see you again!”
“I found myself in need of someone to look after Livvy on pretty short notice. I was a little bit worried because she’s not the greatest on leash walker and she’s also never stayed with anybody but friends and family, so staying with a stranger is new to her. Richard and Melissa were great, the first night when she was showing signs of being a little bit anxious they insured that she got out for a decompressing walk and then they took her to an area of the house that was a little less stimulating so she could have some quiet time. Knowing that someone was picking up on her cues was really reassuring for Me and also for Liivvy. They were very communicative the whole time she was staying there making sure that I got photos and they let me know how she was settling in. I would have zero hesitations about recommending them or booking with them again.”
“Our Heeler had never stayed with anyone else before and is typically a bit of a nervous / shy boy. We have a trip coming up and needed to find him a suitable family to stay with while we are away for a week. After our first meet and greet which went super well, we decided to book an overnight stay so our dog could get used to Tejaswini & Saumik's home before leaving him there for a week. I have nothing but positive things to say about Tejaswini & Saumik. From the moment I met them it was very obvious that they were very experienced with dogs. They knew how to properly and slowly introduce my dog to theirs. They were patient with mine and gave him space when he needed it. They took it slow and let him lead the speed. He was stressed out about being away from me (first time in his 4 year life) and confused. Saumik even went so far as to set up a bed for himself on the main floor so he could stay close to my boy to help get him more settled for the night ❤️. By the next day my boy was following Tejaswini everywhere and started to settle in. I know that with a bit more time he will enjoy his stay and will start to play with their dog Stewie (who is such a patient and good boy). Tejaswini & Saumik's home is well set up for caring for your dog. They have gates and panels that they can modify to keep the dogs safe and give them their own area/space as needed. They also have a large fenced in and escape proof yard. I was also happy with the communication and amount of updates I received from them. They're very quick to reply and sent videos and pictures regularly. I know that when my boy goes for his one week stay that he will settle in and be well taken care of which will really allow me to enjoy my trip with my husband and kids. Thank you Tejaswini & Saumik! I'm so glad we found you!”
“Cady took amazing care of Nashville! I received videos and pictures of him every night which made me feel comfortable on my 10+ days away. He looked so happy. Thank you!!!!!”
“Diana and Steven are wonderful people with the kindest souls. My Hagen, due to his lack of experience with children, doesn't get along well with them, but at Diana's house, he fully opened up to the children for the first time, exposing his belly. Regular walks, attention, and care—your pet will feel like he's at summer camp. I highly recommend Diana. Your pet will be happy in good hands.”
“Madison was incredible with my anxious pup. She introduced her slowly and allowed her to naturally feel comfortable. She had a blast and I knew she was in good hands from the start. Madison is extremely professional, responds in a timely manner and very reassuring that her care is of the highest quality. I got multiple updates throughout her stay of pictures and videos. My pup came back so calm and happy. I would absolutely book again and recommend for other dog owners.”
“Patti and her family are amazing caregivers for your fogs! Are Rubble loves being with them and gets along great with lSadie their dog. Rubble has stayed 3 different times over the past year. I wouldn’t hesitate to try them you and your dogs won’t be disappointed. Till next time❤️”
“Arissa ensured we had nothing to worry about while our babies were in her care. She asked the right questions so that we knew our pets' little quirks and routines were taken care of. It's clear Arissa really loves animals and is quick to understand their needs. I would 10/10 enlist Arissa again and recommend her to anyone I know. No stress, happy vacation!”
“Lin was very nice and patient, gave us updates about Luka with photos and videos everyday. She lives in a farm, which is a very nice place for pets to play. I strongly recommend Lin if you need a reliable sitter.”
“Owen was wonderful with our dog Jules while we were away. She was treated just like one of the family. He sent updates and pictures which was perfect as we missed Jules so much while on vacation. We will definitely book again if and when we go away!”
“I couldn’t have asked for better care for Rex. She went above and beyond while watching him, especially when he wasn’t feeling well. She kept me updated throughout his stay, made sure he ate, gave him his probiotics, and even bathed him after he got sick. I really appreciated her communication and how closely she monitored him. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing he was in such caring and capable hands. Rex came home happy, and it’s clear he was treated like family. I would absolutely trust her with him again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, compassionate pet sitter.”
“Stephanie was absolutely WONDERFUL!! i was very unsettled about needing boarding for my 2 kidz - it was going to be our first time away from one another (over night(s)). The first time Stephanie met my 2, my shoulders dropped as they both took to her. You know that's a great sign when they feel comfortable and at ease. Stephanie sent pix and updates every day, which calmed me grately. They had soo much fun. i will DEFINITELY be keeping Stephanie as my kidz 'sitter' for future events. She was awesome to them - treating them like they were her own. i can't say enough great things. My kidz really like her too, which is very important to me. On such short notice she's the one that came through. 5 starz+ in my books!!”
“It was our first time using Rover and in-home boarding for our Husky mix. After 5 years of daycare in a larger facility, our aging boy needed a more relaxed environment. Brock & Nicole provided that, plus more. From first point of contact to his first overnight stay in their lovely home, we were put at ease and Netley settled in quicker than we anticipated. I’m happy we found the perfect fit! We will book again in the future for sure!”
“Erin was amazing. She provided lots of updates and made sure to communicate with me or ask questions if needed. She provided lots of exercise and mental stimulation as well. Was super accommodating, polite and just overall a pleasure. My pup had a great time and I would 100% book her again.”
“Naina was very well taken care of over a 4 day period. She came back relaxed and tired (in a good way as this showed she got lots of walks and play time). Communication was very professional and consistent - concerns/questions were brought to my attention right away so I was very much in the loop which I appreciated. Highly recommend Nayeli and Nicholas for your next pet’s stay ☺️”
