About: Hello! My name is Victoria :) I’ve been a Rover sitter in Ontario for the past two years and have now re-located back home to Newfoundland. I have absolutely loved my time as a sitter in Ontario and am looking to continue within the metro region in NL :) I work full-time in the Early Childhood Education field and am a huge animal lover! I have experience looking after dogs, cats and bunnies, as well as owning dogs and cats throughout my life. Please reach out if you have any questions :) I look forward to meeting some new furry faces! I work full-time as an early childhood educator :). I currently work split shift so between shifts I can be back to hang out with your pet! I have my own vehicle as well so transportation is not an issue :) Your fur baby will be given so much love and affection as if they’re my own :) I am always on top of making sure their food and water is full, their potty area is clean, and they get lots of play time. I’m always sure to give plenty of updates with cute pictures and videos of your pet
About: Looking for someone who will care for your pet like family? I currently work at a veterinary clinic, where I care for animals almost every day and help provide compassionate, attentive care to pets of all ages and personalities. Whether your dog is energetic, shy, senior, or has special needs, you can have peace of mind knowing they’re in experienced and caring hands. Outside of work, animals have always been a huge part of my life. Growing up, we always had dogs in our home—from big, lovable Labradors to tiny, feisty Chihuahuas—so I’m comfortable caring for dogs of all sizes and temperaments. Right now, we’re raising an energetic Husky/Lab puppy who keeps us on our toes, and we’ve also fostered a Boxer who is completely deaf and blind in one eye. These experiences have taught me patience, adaptability, and how to confidently care for dogs with unique needs.
About: My Fur babes are really my babies. I have had dogs & cats for as long as I have been able to. They are love. I moved to Newfoundland in 2021 to care for my family and I am able to share my space, time and energy with 4 legged friends. It would be my honour and privilege to care, board and walk your family pets. I have a fully fenced yard and greenspace behind my home to take care of your dogs. I can throw a ball for hours if need be as my own dog loves to watch and play. Or I can watch youtube videos of dogs on the beach. If its your cat, my own cat has plenty of toys and loves to play fetch and while away the hours on his scratch pad.
About: I am an experienced pet owner and lover of animals of all kinds! I grew up with several large dogs who were always an integral part of our family. My aunt also owns a pet care business-- loving and caring for pets runs in the family! I currently live with two wonderful rescue dogs and have volunteer and worked with dogs and cats throughout the last ten years. I have worked with several dog trainers on specific training methods and commands. I am comfortable with dogs (and other pets) of all sizes and have experience with medication and special diets. My flexible work-from-home career allows me to be available throughout the day, as well! I'm available for check-ins, walks, or other care needs throughout the day and evening. I can't wait to meet you and your pets! I have a flexible schedule to care for your pet during the day and evening or anything in between! I live in near downtown and can get to most locations in town in about 10 minutes. I am happy to follow any outlined procedures and rules for your pets. I take pet safety and security very seriously (and know how nerve-wracking it can be to trust someone new with your pet). Your pet will never be off leash, and I will take extensive care to ensure they are always under my observation. I am happy to send you a text and picture after our walks or check-ins!
About: I had a chocolate labrador retriever for 11 years, and have spent many years caring for dogs that belonged to my family and friends before owning my own. I'm currently working part-time with a very flexible schedule. Looking to share my love of outdoors while ensuring your dog gets exercise when you're busy. I currently only provide dog walking services but if in my neighborhood, I do have a fenced yard in which I can spend time playing with your doggy.
About: I’ve had pets in my family my whole life. I’ve had many cats over the years and I’ve had a Lab for over 8 years that I’ve had since he was a puppy. I’m currently working part-time, so I’ll have plenty of time to care for your fur babies! I’m available for boarding, dog walking and in-home visits. I have a big backyard where your pups can stretch their legs. I am familiar with crating as I crate trained my dog when he was a pup. I can and enjoy providing updates with pictures to pet owners!
About: All pets will be loved and taken care of, they will definitely be my priority during the time they are with me. Had dogs for the major part of my childhood, so growing up connecting to pets is not much of a problem for me. Will be playing with them pretty much all the time for sure, do not have to worry about any kinds of danger, safety will be ensured first. Any kind of special care requested will be happily accepted and extra attention will be payed towards the concern. Would love to stay connected to each pet, should expect me to secretly give treats to all the good pets out there ☺️💙 Every service provided will be the best. So when can I meet your pet??! 🤩

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats throughout my life since the age of 12.

“Heather pet sitted out two senior cats for 5 days when we had to go out of province for a family wedding. She did a great job! One of our cats needs medication twice a day and she administered it no problem. They loved her and did not hide when she came to visit. I felt very relieved having her watch the cats and felt like it was one thing I did not have to worry about while we were away. I would recommend Heather to anyone and would definitely book her again.”
“Tara is absolutely a beautiful soul! She loves animals and it shows. My lil boy just loves her. She is professional, punctual and is very accommodating. She learned his routine, cues and needs so quickly. I am very pleased with my experience and will continue to work with her as we navigate the puppy stage! (She was also very helpful in using and navigating this app!)”
