Personalized care for your dog or cat - Bay Roberts

“Tasha and her husband were a lovely couple and our first meeting with them was a genuine comfort for us. They were both so kind, thoughtful, helpful and respectful. Our hearts were full knowing Henry was in their constant care. They had a fenced garden, they took Henry for walks and let him sleep on the couch it does not get better than that. If your dog looks back at his caregiver as he drives away, you know he has had a beautiful adventure away from home. From the bottom of our hearts thank you Tasha and Zack for loving Henry. Henry says thank you too, I just know it.”

“The best experience. Will definitely be using Steve going forward. He sent photos and kept in contact during our time away and treated Angus as his own. He had full access to his home and was super comfortable and happy there.. He’s already looking forward to his next stay. Thank you!”

“Once again, Leslie and Rob are just fantastic! We got stuck away for three extra nights unexpectedly due to weather, and they continued to take care of our dogs Pippa and Nova without hesitation! It provided us 100% peace of mind being able to travel and knowing they are being cared for in such a loving and caring home, and so well looked after. Leslie went over and beyond to ensure Nova had her medications, and sent regular updates. Their fenced in backyard is amazing, and the dogs fit into their beautiful home with their sweet dog Gauge perfectly. Pippa and Nova are excited for their next stay over!”

About: I’ve been around animals my whole life—dogs and cats. I’ve helped care for family pets, walked neighborhood dogs, and provided overnight care for friends and family while they were away. I’m confident handling pets of all sizes and temperaments, and I treat every animal like my own—with patience, love, and respect. Whether it’s a long walk, some playtime, or just company, I’m here to make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away👍 I’m currently doing online studies and not working at the moment, which allows me to offer a very flexible schedule. I’m available Monday through Saturday for walks, drop-ins, and overnight care. Whether your pet needs attention during the day or evening, I’m happy to work around your schedule. Sundays are my only day off, but feel free to reach out anytime! I understand how important it is to feel confident when someone is caring for your pet in your home. I treat every home with the utmost respect and care, just as I would my own. I follow any specific instructions you provide and always prioritize your pet’s routine, safety, and comfort. I take time to build trust with both pets and owners, creating a calm and reliable environment. Your pet’s well-being—and your peace of mind—are my top priorities. If you’d like updates while you’re away, I’m more than happy to send messages, photos, or videos so you can feel reassured that your pet is happy and well cared

About: I've always been good with animals, I'm great at understanding their body language and respecting their boundaries. I have good control of my tone of voice when speaking to animals and they respond to it well. I've taken care of dogs and cats myself. I've even kept a bunny company. I have a lot of patience, and I genuinely care about the wellbeing of every living being I come across so I take their care very seriously. I'm currently working part-time tutoring through zoom. I'm going back to university classes in the fall semester but I have a pretty flexible schedule at the moment. I'm very attentive and careful when taking care of them, I've cared for puppies and kittens as well. I don't leave them out of my sight. I play with them and make sure they're behaving.

About: 🐾 Welcome! I’ve been around dogs and animals my entire life and have cared for them since I was a child. As a true dog lover, I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and building a connection with them. They bring so much happiness into my life, and I treat every pet with the same love, patience, and attention that I give my own. I have a 3-year-old dog named Neo and 11 months old pup named Theo, they are friendly, playful, and loving pups. They enjoy meeting other dogs and would be happy to have some furry friends to spend time with.

I look forward to meeting you and your furry family member! 🐶❤️ Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. I make time each day for walks, feeding, playtime, and providing companionship. I am committed to giving pets the attention, care, and affection they deserve while ensuring they feel safe, comfortable, and happy in my care. Safety and trust are my top priorities when caring for your pet. I understand that leaving your dog with someone else is a big decision, and I will treat your furry family member with the same care, patience, and attention that I give my own dogs.

About: I grew up in a home that always had a dog, so caring for dogs has always been a natural and important part of my life. I’ve regularly watched family and neighbours’ dogs and have experience caring for both playful puppies and senior dogs. I understand that every dog has their own personality and needs, including dogs who are not social with other dogs. I’m comfortable providing one-on-one care and ensuring they feel safe, happy, and loved. Since we are a family with children, it’s important that visiting dogs are comfortable and good with kids. We’re a very active and loving family who enjoys getting outside, especially going for walks. Dogs have always held a special place in my heart, and I’ll treat your pup like part of our family while they’re in our care. I work from home two days a week, which gives me the flexibility to be home for much of the day and provide regular attention and care. On the days I’m working outside the home, I’m able to stop home for pee breaks and check-ins. I understand that every pup has different routines and needs, and I’m happy to work closely with pet parents to create a schedule that works best for you and your dog. Whether your pup needs extra potty breaks, walks, playtime, or simply some company and cuddles, I’m flexible and happy to accommodate their routine as much as possible. Your pup’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. We have a large, fully fenced backyard where your dog can enjoy some fresh air and playtime in a safe environment. We currently don’t have any pets at home. We are still mending our hearts after the recent passing of our beloved dog, who was a very special part of our family. Because of this, we understand just how much your furry family member mean to us. Our home includes our loving 6 year old boy, so visiting dogs must be comfortable and good with children. We’re happy to accommodate your pup’s individual routine, personality, and needs to help them feel comfortable and at home while they’re with us. For overnight stays, sleeping in a crate is preferred, as we want to provide a safe and comfortable sleeping environment for everyone. Most importantly, your pup will receive plenty of love, attention, walks, playtime, and cuddles while they’re here.

“This was my first time using the Rover app & Melanie was fantastic ! Kept me update with pics of Rocky, could not have asked for anyone better to look after rocky .Will definitely be booking with Melanie again in the future ☺️”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats throughout my life since the age of 12. I am familiar with various animal medical conditions, skilled in medication administration, and sensitivity to dietary restrictions. I hike with my own dog daily for at least 1 hour, and would love to have your furry loved ones join us! I currently work full-time but can flexibly accommodate drop in visits and walks during the week with sufficient notice. Friday to Sunday I am available for pet boarding at my home. I have a fenced yard and one senior English Setter to keep your furry friends company. My home is pet safe and animals are allowed on the furniture and beds. In clients homes, I ensure that messes are cleaned up urgently and that your pet has everything they need!

About: I am a highly active, vegan, compassionate animal lover. I provide great companionship to your pet, gaining a friend, not just a dog walker/sitter. I have been caring for, sitting, and walking dogs for over 10 years. I have a very strong love for all animals, big and small. Life is not the same without a pet in it. In the past I have always volunteered to walk shelter dogs, as well as short term foster dogs from local rescue groups. I have experience with extra large breeds (Newfoundland, German Shepard, Rotweilers), as well as small breeds (teacup chihuahuas, Maltese). I have experience giving pets medication, both pill and injection forms, as well as brushing, teeth brushing, and nail clipping! Contact me today. I would love to discuss my future with you and your pet !

“My dog had a great time with Jessica and she kept me updated with pictures during her stay. Lexi can't wait to go back! I would recommend Jessica for anyone looking for a home away from home for their pup!”

“Maggie took care of our Australian shepherd, Jersey, while we were out of town on vacation. She was so kind and took such good care of our girl, bringing her for walks frequently, Sent lots of photos and updates. Highly recommend.”

About: I have experience caring for dogs and cats of different ages, energy levels, and personalities through pet sitting, house sitting, and caring for my own dog. Whatever your pets needs may be I will make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. As a pet owner myself, I know leaving your pet with someone else can be stressful which is why I prioritize communication and am always happy to provide updates and photos! Im currently a social work student on summer break, I have a flexible schedule and plenty of availability for your fur babies. Outside of my part time job, I am available most days and am happy to accommodate to your pets routine whenever possible. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. Whether I’m walking your dog or caring for your pets in your home, I will follow all instructions closely and maintain their usual routine to help them feel comfortable and secure. During walks, I keep dogs safely leashed and tailor each walk to their energy level and needs.

About: I have been providing dog sitting services for some time now and decided to extend services through Rover in February 2026. I am an huge animal lover, adore nature and just want to give families the peace of mind when going away that I would want for my dogs. I have owned many dogs and have fostered too many to count. I was president of a rescue group for 10 years, 25 years volunteering with rescue groups and have extensive experience with small and large dogs, I have completed multiple obedience courses and have a strong knowledge of basic dog obedience and training. Dogs are a huge part of my life. I have regular clients I walk and that I provide pet sitting for in my home. I love to walk, hike, and jog. I build regular daily outdoor activity into my schedule and understand the importance of consistency for dogs. I am also flexible and can adjust to the needs of a dog when needed and I want to provide them with a place they can be content while their owner is away. Each dog is unique and I support a daily/weekly plan that supports their uniqueness. In order to get to know the needs and routines of all the dogs I care for, I ask each owner to complete a questionnaire outlining all I would need to know while caring for their dog. I treat each dog like my own and they are fully integrated into all aspects of our household. Regular interaction, belly rubs and treats (with owner permission) are daily occurrences.

About: I have a Westie and a Gordon Setter. Both love other dogs. Everything I do revolves around them. I have had much experience having other dogs in my home. Our little family is welcoming, quiet and happy. We have hosted larger and smaller breeds. I have a fenced backyard which also offers some freedom to our furry friends. My own dogs are very well behaved and friendly. They love other dogs and even some people ;-) I currently work from home so my schedule offers me a lot of free time. I always make our guests part of the family. They have full run of the house. I always say this is like going to Grandmas, the rules are very flexible and cuddles are a must! Pets are my priority. Most people who know me know that my life revolves around them. My usual excuse is “I can’t, I have dogs to get home to”. And I’m perfectly happy with that. I believe that their lives are so short already, they deserve to have as much of our attention and love as possible.

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??! 🤩

“I was very pleased with Denise and Gary as they treated Winston as their own, Winston stayed there for three afternoons from 1 until 7, the first day he was a bit unsure of me leaving, on the third day he arrived with his tail wagging so I knew he was comfortable staying there, overall I think is was a good choice picking Denise and Gary to look after Winston and would recommend their place.”

Trevor A.

“We left Piper for the day while we headed out exploring. Lori was very good with Piper and she got along well with their dogs and their foster dogs. A great experience for Piper. I would definitely recommend them.”

“Duke had a great time staying and playing with Katarina! got pictures each day, and a sweet christmas surprise! thanks so much for taking care of Duke.”

“Melanie quickly put me at ease leaving my pooch with a stranger in an unfamiliar town. She warmly greeted me and Nat at the door and her warmth and love of dogs was instantly apparent. She kept me updated with texts and photos throughout the day. My dog is very “chill” and it was obvious she was very comfortable with Melanie. Would definitely use her again.”

About: Have house trained my daughters and son’s puppies. I dog sit for my son when he goes on his many trips and continue to check in on my daughter’s dog while she’s at work. Will Allow Pets On Bed Depending On Size I am retired and bored at home. I can spend all day every day with your pup. I love going for walks so it would be great to have a buddy. I have a fenced yard . I live on a very quiet cul de sac ,no pets of our own ,cat and dog passed away a few years ago

About: I have a lifetime of experience when it comes to dogs and have grown up around them my whole life. I was raised by parents that worked with animals and learned a lot about how to care and connect with them. Iam able to administer medications and attend to dogs of any age including puppies. When my husband and I got a dog of our own for the first time our hearts became even more full with love for animals Wich is something I didn’t think possible. Being a dog mom to a loving happy and goofy dog like Bodhi has changed my life. He is truly the heart of our home and caring for him is so fulfilling. Welcoming your dog in our home will just be another incredible addition where we can share our love for animals and care for them like they are our own. I am an artist currently working from home so I am incredibly flexible when it comes to dog care. I have tons of time for play and walks and cuddles so your pet will get lots of attention. On weekends my husband and I go hiking when the weather is good and love to take Bodhi for the nature and exercise, we love to be outside. I live in a great ground floor condo with a walkout porch and a front lawn, right next to me there is a yard with a fence separating us from any traffic or stores. There is lots of room for play and fun and makes potty breaks convenient and easy :) My neighbours are all dog lovers as well and welcome all new furry friends with loving arms. I live only 2 minutes away from Bowring park and go there everyday for a huge walk with Bodhi living close is such a blessing cause he loves the park. As most dogs do, it’s a great place to walk them and let them explore. So you can count on your dog getting a nice big walk in during the day :) Bodhi is a super loving and playful dog who loves other dogs and playing so you know your dog will have a best friend when they stay with us. Dogs are welcome in the bed, on the couch and anywhere in our home. They are family and are treated as such :)

I currently work full-time but can flexibly accommodate drop in visits and walks during the week with sufficient notice. Friday to Sunday I am available for pet boarding at my home. I have a fenced yard and one senior English Setter to keep your furry friends company. My home is pet safe and animals are allowed on the furniture and beds. In clients homes, I ensure that messes are cleaned up urgently and that your pet has everything they need!

About: I have been providing dog sitting services for some time now and decided to extend services through Rover in February 2026. I am an huge animal lover, adore nature and just want to give families the peace of mind when going away that I would want for my dogs. I have owned many dogs and have fostered too many to count. I was president of a rescue group for 10 years, 25 years volunteering with rescue groups and have extensive experience with small and large dogs, I have completed multiple obedience courses and have a strong knowledge of basic dog obedience and training. Dogs are a huge part of my life. I have regular clients I walk and that I provide pet sitting for in my home. I love to walk, hike, and jog. I build regular daily outdoor activity into my schedule and understand the importance of consistency for dogs. I am also flexible and can adjust to the needs of a dog when needed and I want to provide them with a place they can be content while their owner is away. Each dog is unique and I support a daily/weekly plan that supports their uniqueness. In order to get to know the needs and routines of all the dogs I care for, I ask each owner to complete a questionnaire outlining all I would need to know while caring for their dog. I treat each dog like my own and they are fully integrated into all aspects of our household. Regular interaction, belly rubs and treats (with owner permission) are daily occurrences.

About: I have a genuine love for all animals and think I would be great to watch your little ones while you’re away! I have a lot of experience as well. I have had animals all throughout my whole life including senior dogs & cats, puppies and kittens as well as horses! I start part time school in September but still have tons of free time and can definitely work around my schedule to fit your needs :) I have a huge fenced in backyard with grass. If i’m coming to your home, I will make sure your animals are well cared for and exercised! Able to cater to whatever needs for your animal!
