House Sitting Millbrook

“Jacob was calm and friendly and Yoshi really seemed to like him. We were away for 6.5 hours and came home to a happy, fed, and unstressed puppy. We would certainly have Jacob back to look after Yoshi and Tucker.”

About: I’ve always had a strong love for animals and have hands-on experience caring for cats and dogs in my own home. I’m comfortable with daily feeding routines, litter box cleaning, playtime, grooming, administering basic medications, and keeping a close eye on changes in behaviour or appetite. I’m currently a studying Veterinary Technician, which has given me additional education in animal behaviour, husbandry, welfare, anatomy, and basic clinical care. I’m especially passionate about making pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. I understand that every pet has their own personality and routine, so I take the time to follow each owner’s instructions and keep their normal routine as consistent as possible. I’m also happy to provide regular photo and message updates so you know how your pet is doing while you’re away. I’m a Vet Tech student with a flexible school schedule. I’m available for check-ins Monday–Wednesday around my classes, and I’m completely free Thursday–Friday for longer visits and pet care. I provide care in the client’s home, where pets can stay comfortable in their familiar environment. I prioritize safety, trust, and following each pet’s normal routine. I do not offer boarding in my own home because I have pets of my own.

“Vanessa stayed in our home and took great care of our husky-mix. Our pup was relaxed and clearly without a care when we arrived home, and can be an anxious guy. Our house was just as we left it, and Vanessa took great care to keep us updated multiples times a day with pictures and feedback on how our pup was doing. Thanks for taking such excellent care of our boy and our home, Vanessa!”

“Vanessa was amazing! It was my first time using Rover and Vanessa put my mind at ease by setting up a meet and greet ahead of time and sending updates throughout her stay. My dog and cat were very comfortable with her and were happy upon my return. My house was in perfect order and secured at the conclusion of her stay. I will definitely be rebooking with Vanessa. Thank you! 🐕🐈”

About: I am a compassionate and attentive animal lover who’s had the pleasure of taking care of my own pets as well as many different breeds of my friend’s and families dogs and cats! Currently, I am on a hiatus from work and can be available for your furry friends any day of the week! Usually, I work Monday-Friday 9-5 but also have the opportunity to work from home somedays so I can be more available to your pet! I can also do check-ins on lunches or breaks. My goal is to give a loving, welcoming, engaging and fun environment for pets of all shapes and sizes! We will have a lot of fun spending time together going for walks, playing, getting lots of pets and cuddles!

“Michelle was amazing taking care of our 2 digs and 2!cats, day and night for 7 days. She is a natural with animals and a lovely person that we trusted with our home as well as pets. Thank you Michelle!”

About: Caring for others, both people and animals, has always been an important part of my life. Compassion and caregiving are a big part of who I am. I volunteered for several years with Hospice Services in Lindsay, providing support to people with life limiting illnesses, and continue to help seniors in my community with appointments, advocacy and companionship. I’m also an animal advocate and have volunteered with the Ontario Turtle Trauma Centre, helping transport injured and rehabilitated turtles. While cats are my specialty, I’m also comfortable caring for small and medium-sized dogs. I currently share my home with my beloved pup Duke who is a high anxiety Cockapoo and our elderly cat Chica (technically she shares her home with us). I love the outdoors and enjoy trail walking and kayaking, so getting outside for a good dog walk is something I genuinely enjoy. Most importantly, I understand the trust involved in leaving a beloved pet in someone else’s care. My goal is to give each pet the patience, attention and companionship they need so you can be away knowing they are in caring and dependable hands. As of late October 2026 I plan to devote my time to pet care so I will be available 7 days a week throughout the day or evenings. Sharing my home with a high anxiety dog I know to be cautious when approaching other dogs who are out for a walk. And my sneaky cat who attempts to escape a few times each summer, has taught me to be very observant and cautious when opening doors to ensure indoor pets remain safe.

About: I’ve helped care for dogs since I was 9 years old. From puppies to seniors, big and small, there’s no dog I won’t care for. I work full time Monday to Thursday, so I can't do those days, but my weekends are usually free. I have occasionally have online activities, but your pet will always have priority. I have a large yard for potty breaks, and live on a very quiet road for walks. Our house is large enough for playtime sessions.

About: I’ve trained and taken full care of my puppy Ollie… as well as just taken care of both of my dogs all my life… I enjoy spending much of my time with animals and always make sure they’re well taken care of. I am currently on a gap year so I am home all the time… I walk and feed my dogs everyday and spend almost all my time with them. I have an open backyard that is about 3 acres as well as a fenced in section. I am very flexible and able to do what ever you need me to do!

About: Hello! My name is Jacqueline, and I've had a lifelong love for animals. Growing up with dogs since a young age has given me a deep understanding of their needs and behaviors. I’ve had the pleasure of caring for a variety of breeds, sizes, and temperaments, and I bring that wealth of experience to every dog I look after. I treat every dog as if they were my own, ensuring they receive the love, attention, and care they need. I prioritize safety in all activities, whether it's a walk in the park or playtime! I keep owners updated with photos and messages, so you can enjoy peace of mind knowing your furry friend is in good hands. I’m experienced with handling dogs with special needs, anxiety, or specific dietary requirements. I’m excited to provide a loving and safe environment for your dog while you’re away. Let’s make sure your furry friend feels at home! 🐾💗 I work from home, so pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine! I’m home throughout the day and can provide plenty of attention, potty breaks, walks and playtime rather than your pet being left alone for long periods. I already have a dog of my own, Hershey, so walks, outdoor time and lots of doggy attention are already part of our everyday life. I’m also able to be flexible with feeding schedules, medications, walks and any routines your pet is used to at home. I want pets in my care to feel comfortable, safe and at home. When staying with me, they’ll be treated like part of the family and get lots of attention, affection, playtime and regular outdoor breaks. We also have a fully fenced backyard where dogs can safely get outside for fresh air, potty breaks and playtime throughout the day. I have a friendly cockapoo named Hershey, so I’m happy to arrange a meet and greet beforehand to make sure everyone is comfortable. I also prefer to keep the number of pets I care for at one time limited so I can give each pet plenty of individual attention. When caring for a pet in their own home, I’ll do my best to stick closely to their normal routine, including feeding, walks, potty breaks and any special instructions you provide. I know how much trust it takes to leave your pet in someone else’s care, so keeping you updated and making sure your pet is happy and well cared for is very important to me.

“Olivia was spectacular… highly recommend! She stayed in our home with our two dogs for 1.5 weeks while we were away. It went smoother than we could’ve imagined, and it allowed us to really enjoy our trip. The bond that she created with them is strong because of her gentle, nurturing and caring soul. She sent update pictures and videos throughout - and we could tell our dogs were beyond comfortable and satisfied. She seamlessly integrated into their schedule as if she has known them (and us) for a long time. She’s truly a natural with dogs. Olivia is highly responsible, reliable, and very kind. We look forward to booking with her every time!”

“Aarthi was a fantastic help to us house and pet sitting our elder dog and energetic cat while we were on vacation. It was important to us that our pets could stay in an environment they’re use to, especially our 14 yr old dog who is starting to slow down. Aarthi was flexible to meet ahead of time, see the house and understand their routines. She has a warm and friendly personality, and her affection for animals was evident from the moment we met her. She kept us informed as to how they were doing and sent a few pics too. We will definitely have her back!”

Cathlin H.

“Another successful pet and house sitting with Mark! Stella and Ben clearly enjoy their time with Mark and are well cared for during our time away. Mark's regular "pupdates" give us peace of mind and many smiles. We are already planning our next trip with confidence. Thanks Mark! Two high energy golden retrievers can be a handful!”

About: I’ve had animals in my life for as long as I can remember and have experience caring for all kinds of pets. I have my own dog, whom I’ve trained and care for every day, giving me hands-on experience with training, exercise, feeding, and providing lots of love and attention. I’m patient and responsible, and I'll treat every pet like my own. I’m currently in Teachers College, so my schedule is flexible and allows me to fit pet care into my daily routine. I love staying active and working out, so I’d be happy to include walks, playtime, and plenty of exercise with your pet while also giving them lots of attention and care. Some things to note about my schedule: As mentioned, I am currently in teachers college. I’m in a placement from September 21–October 26, Monday–Friday from 9:00–3:30, but I do have an hour lunch break each day, so I may be able to work something out depending on what time you’re looking for. I’ll also be away for school November 14–December 18 to which I won’t be available. Then I’ll have another placement January–February. Outside of those times, I have more flexibility. I’ll provide care in my clients’ homes, following each pet’s usual routine and making sure they feel comfortable and cared for. I’ll keep up with feeding, walks, playtime, and any specific instructions, while giving them lots of attention and making sure their home is kept clean and secure.

About: For me, pets are not just another being living at home but a part of family. Hence, I patiently learn, understand their character and needs so that I can provide the required care accordingly. As I am currently a stay at home wife, pet care is a big part of my daily routine. I ensure regular feeding, playtime, walks, and lots of attention. I make sure pets feel safe and comfortable by keeping a clean, secure space. I build trust with lots of love, regular meals, and playtime, using pet-friendly products to keep everything healthy.

“This was my first time booking Jessica to house-sit and take care of my dog while I was away on a 10-day vacation. She was incredibly professional, reliable, and clearly has a natural connection with animals—my dog absolutely loved her and even missed her after she left! I came home to a spotless house and a happy, healthy pup. I would definitely recommend Jessica!”

Keechy K.

“Carla made an instant connection with my anxious little Sealyham Terrier, Phaedra and I knew that she was the right person for the job. Our home was spotless, our dog was happy, content and spoiled (as she expects) while we vacationed without a worry. Carla provided updates and photos and made our holiday extra special because we knew our beloved dog was being well cared for and loved in her own home. We will always use Carla from now on!”
