“Elizabeth is really a gentle sensitive dog lover. I was very happy to have her take care of my dog Penny. She tried to help Penny with some of her insecurities. I also received photos of their walks daily. I will definitely have Elizabeth again ❤️❤️”
“The owner of Shakespeare was very nervous about trusting a stranger to look after her precious little dog. With her kindness and cheerful disposition, Bev was able to help both dog and owner to happily adjust to having a dog walker. We are grateful for her help!”
About: I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life. I’ve been watching neighbours, family and friends pet when they need a helping hand. Always looking forward to getting outside to go for walks. I’m currently working from home, so it allows me to keep an eye on your pet. During my breaks I can play with your pet as well as give them lots of love and attention throughout the day! I have a big yard for your dog to run around in. Recently got a puppy, so it would be great for them to play together.
About: I love animals, especially dogs. I like creating a nice environment for them with fresh water, food and play indoors and out. Lots of physical exercise in the yard and on trails and at the river. I have had a dogs and cats, birds and rabbits since childhood. I am very responsible and kind and fun. I have 18 years experience as a care worker for medically fragile and disabled people and the home. I also take care of the animals in the home and grooming and safety. I am happy to open my home to caring for people’s animals and look forward to getting to know your family and your animals. Take Care, CJ. I have plenty of time to give attention to pets in our home. The animals are first in the routine with fresh water, food and outdoor exercise. I have a large, private lot that the dogs can play in on their leash. We have a large home where I provide very safe care for every animal.
About: I've taken care of dogs and cats since I was 12 years old. I'm very patient and love working with animals to ensure that they are comfortable. I work at home during the day from Monday-Friday and care for my Shih tzu throughout each day. I bring her for many walks each day. I am flexible in the care for my clients pets. Based on client recommendation, I can either give their pets their own comfortable space or, if they enjoy the company of people and other dogs, I can slowly introduce them to my dog in a shared space.
About: Hi! I'm Angela. I'm 26 years old and I'm a student at Carleton University. I love animals very much (especially dogs and cats) and I look forward to taking care of your pet(s)! I'm located in the Nepean area of Ottawa and I am able to relocate for your pet’s needs. I was born and raised in Toronto where I grew up with several dogs in my lifetime. Right now, I have an 11 year old cockapoo named Zeus (he doesn't live with me) so I have tons of experience with dogs and their many, many needs! Zeus is also a senior citizen with hip dysplasia, so I understand the importance of patience and gentleness when it comes to caring for senior dogs and cats. I take pride in making sure that the dogs I'm taking care of are always walked, exercised, fed/well-rested. All dogs are welcome! I provide basically all services offered on Rover. As a settler in Ottawa, I recognize that I am on the traditional, unceded, and unsurrendered territory of the Anishinaabe Algonquin Nation. I offer free compassionate care for Indigenous dog owners, and discounted rates for low-income or disabled dog owners. Ask me about the free services I provide! (E.g bathing, playtime, etc). I look forward to caring for your lovely pet(s)<3. I'm currently a part-time student at Carleton University. I'm in 2 classes - one on Monday, and one on Wednesday. Other than that, my availability is quite open. I accept same-day bookings. I have a fenced yard and a big schoolyard very close to where I live - I'm extremely active, so frequent walks are my speciality. Younger dogs or highly active dogs are more than welcome. Senior dogs, or doggies who require more frequent potty breaks are also more than welcome.
About: I have cared for my family’s dogs for periods ranging from a few days to several months, and I have regularly lived with dogs for long periods of time. Through this experience, I understand that caring for animals requires time, patience, responsibility, and dedication. I truly enjoy helping animals feel safe, calm, and comfortable, and I always try to create a caring environment where they can feel relaxed and secure. I would plan my daily routine to make sure your dog is included throughout the day, with dedicated time for rest, feeding, playtime, and exercise. Your dog would not only be cared for by one person, but welcomed as part of a family environment. I genuinely enjoy the company of animals and feel comfortable understanding their behaviors, needs, and personalities, which helps me provide attentive and caring support. I live in an apartment with balcony, available for pets to move around comfortably. Even large dogs can move freely, and my home is free of fragile objects, so your dog will not feel restricted or stressed while staying with me. I also live near parks and pet-friendly walking areas, which makes it easy to provide regular outdoor exercise and enjoyable walks. I understand the needs and behaviors of animals, and I would adapt my daily routine to the schedule and specific needs of your pet. I am very protective of animals, so your dog would always be safe and carefully supervised with me, especially in open or public spaces. I believe in building trust and discipline through patience, consistency, and positive interaction rather than using force. In general, I connect well with animals and enjoy giving them a sense of safety, comfort, and confidence so they can feel protected and truly enjoy their time with me.
