“We were seeking a cat sitter to look after our extremely shy and nervous kitty while we were on vacation for two weeks. Paige came through with flying colours. Within a couple of days, she had bonded with our cat and sent us photos of daily brushing and play-sessions. Paige made our vacation much less stressful knowing we had someone we could trust with our fur child. I’d recommend her to anyone who wants a kind and empathetic pet-sitter.”
“I had never used a cat sitter before Rover and Kristina was absolutely lovely. She put me at ease with her warm personality. She is mature and kind and I could tell she has a way with animals. She went above and beyond, giving me daily updates and pics. I'm so glad I found someone I could entrust with my cat. I will definitely use Kristina again!”
“Nilakshi was incredibly kind and attentive to our two kitties she dropped in on. She was proactive about any potential issues and very respectful of both the cats and the space, and over the end of year holidays no less. I wouldn't hesitate to reach out to her again if our kitties needed a sitter and I'm very appreciative of her!”
“Ryan provided great cat sitting while we were out for the long weekend. He came to meet us and our cat before the trip and while we were away he sent us daily updates and photos, which we looked forward to and very much enjoyed! We could see our cat was happy and well cared for. We would highly recommend Ryan and will definitely use his services again in the future.”
“It was such a delight to have Emma as our cat sitter! She was super sweet, sent timely updates and a whole lot of cute pics, and was easy and accommodating! Thank you so so much for your help with our Etta 😁”
“Daniel and Tane are beyond wonderful. I went away for two weeks for a much needed vacation. I never get away as I feel great anxiety in leaving my fur baby behind. In meeting Daniel and Tane, my anxiety diminished instantly. They were fantastic. The initial plan of check-in’s was quickly modified to in-house boarding which they instantly accommodated! They sent daily pictures and regular updates. They treated my fur baby as though she was theirs. They were so accommodating, attentive, and caring! I’m truly grateful for having met them! They were beyond amazing! Thank you Daniel and Tane!”
“Taylor is a fantastic pet sitter. She’s reliable, professional, and clearly experienced with all kinds of animals. Even though my cat is on the grumpier side and hasn’t fully warmed up to her (yet!), Taylor is always patient and respectful of her space. She gives great updates and makes sure everything is taken care of. I really appreciate the peace of mind knowing my pet is in capable hands. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable sitter!”
“Lorin took care of our two kittens while we were away for the weekend, doing two drop in visits. She sent us updates with photos each day and we felt happy to see our two fur babies relaxed at home! We will definitely be booking with Lorin again.”
“We had Alicia house sit our house and take care of our two kittens (around 6 months old). She was responsive and punctual, and went over all the details of our house and kitten care with us before we left on our trip. When we returned from our week long trip, we came home to two relaxed and happy kittens! We appreciated Alicia's responsiveness and daily updates with photos. We would highly recommend Alicia and would love to have her house sit and take care of our fur babies again!”
“It seemed my cat took to Ruiyan immediately. She has such a wonderful way with animals and takes amazing, quality photos! The video she took really showed me how my car was doing with her and was a great comfort to see him so playful and happy while we were away. I recommend her services and I will book her again in the future.”
“Alicia took great care of my cat Toffee while we were away. She played and pet Toffee and even fixed an issue with the automatic feeder. We're new to the area and very happy to have found her. Thank you Alicia!”
About: I am a long-time pet lover and owner! I've had large and small dogs along with cats over my life. I had a large dog (Rottweiler 98lbs) with aggression issues, so I'm not put off by a little attitude from your pet. Every animal has its own personality just like humans. I am certified in Canine First Aid and have Dog Behaviour (basic), Dog to Dog Aggression, Canine Separation Anxiety, Daycare & Group Play Assessment and Dog Walking Certification course training. I lost my pet recently from cancer and am not ready to readopt yet. I promise I will love and care for your pet as my own. I promise to be very respectful and tidy while in/around your home. I feel that communication is very important while pet parents are away, so I like to give updates and photos of our adventures. I am Oakville born and raised. I went to St.Mildred's & OTHS then studied at George Brown College. I live in Old Oakville. I am an activist on animal rights and do what I can to help ALL animals. You may find me at a protest or rally fighting for the rights of all animals on the weekends. I am very close with my family so don't be surprised if you see my folks at the house hanging out. I grew up in an animal house and my folks love animals also but don't have any pets right now either. I would love a chance to meet you and your pet family! I look forward to hearing from you. Thank you :) I am a pet sitting Professional!! That's what I do!! I take care and love your pet like it was my own. Right now, I work at an office where I can bring pets with me or leave for walks and love anytime. I prefer to keep the dogs with me during the day if I can. I also have a car so we can go to a mix of parks. I live at a house with my parents with nice little yard and a park right out front. This makes it easy for quick walk and lots of good smell to keep the dog cognitive arousal fulfilled. There is an abundance of parks around me.
“Yanqi was an amazing cat sitter! She was professional, reliable, and attentive, providing daily updates with photos and videos. I returned home to a happy and well-cared-for cat, with a clean environment and plenty of attention.”
About: I have been taking care of dogs since I was 15. Whether it be my grandmas, our families or friends, I have been responsible to walk, feed and bathe them for years. I work from home and have a flexible schedule to take breaks during work hours to walk your pups or as well as in the early morning or evening. Establishing trust between myself and the dog is the most important. Firstly, I stay calm and allow for some time and space to reassure them I’m not threatening and establish familiarity. I provide regular check-ins for ease of mind and work to establish a regular routine for the animals in my care. I am passionate about animal care and find it sincerely therapeutic.
“So happy with Jake’s services, he’s quick to respond, great availability and so good with my pets. I needed some help this past weekend and Jake was able to drop in to take care of 2 of my fur babies. I was at ease knowing they were well looked after. I would totally recommend Jake!”
About: Since my college days, I've been a dedicated dog owner. I understand the importance of a loving family setting for your pup's stay. That's why we offer access to indoor and outdoor play areas, comfortable rest spaces, and engaging activities. Our huge fenced backyard provides the perfect environment for exercise, fresh air, and relaxation. We also provide more flexible drop-off and pick-up times to accommodate various owner schedules. We also live near the Go Train station to keep your commute time an easy one I currently work part-time from home on my own business. My husband, who is also a dog lover, also works from home on a flexible schedule. Our kids love hanging around puppies; my mom also helps with doggies. Your dog will be surrounded and taken care of by family. I have a fenced yard and two very mellow and patient Schapendoes who have been around dogs since they were young. They will keep your doggie company and play with them. We understand dogs do better when they stay on their routines, so we will respect and follow all your directives, including special diets and crating times, as needed.
“Karling dropped in a few times to take care of my bunny Parsley while I was gone for the weekend.

I felt so at ease leaving Parsley in her care, and looking at the photos and report cards Parsley seemed to be quite happy too! Thank you so much Karling, from the both of us! 🐰”
About: I grew up with two dogs and was always fascinated about dogs as I grew I realized the bigger the dog the more I am in love Currently I'm a dedicated volunteer at kerr street mission in-between that I enjoy reading at the library so when it comes to pet care I'm super flexible I've been researching animals from a young age and I find it very easy to pick up cues from them that other people don't see
