“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!”
“Vania was great! She was patient and kind with our cats and sent us plenty of photos and videos. She was a real cat whisperer and we felt so much better about going away knowing our babies were in safe hands.”
“I am absolutely in awe of how amazing Linda was! We went on a trip to Mexico and she stayed at our house to take care of Peaches. She is caring and great at communicating. Sent regular updates, and responded promptly to messages. I am so happy I have found someone to take care of Peaches if we travel, it takes a massive load off!”
About: I’ve had pets of all kinds since I was 5 years old. I currently have an 11 year old English Bulldog that I adopted from the shelter 6 months ago and love dearly. I am excited to begin my education in animal care (ACA) this year and ultimately join the team at the Humane Society. I have previous experience as a dog walker and am comfortable with dogs of all temperaments. Whether friendly and care-free, or nervous and reactive, I love all dogs and getting to know all sorts of personalities. I am currently a manager in the hospitality industry but will be leaving to pursue an education and career in animal care. My studies are 50% in class and 50% virtual so that allows me much flexibility for dog walking and sitting. I’m also in the process of virtually volunteering with a rescue on Texas as an animal adoption co-ordinator, which is fulfilling work in my free free time. I care for all animals like they were my own. I am a responsible, truste, experienced house, pet and babysitter. I enjoy cleaning and organization so you can trust me to keep your home just as tidy as you left it and your pets healthy, happy and groomed!
“Amyaz and Shareefa were amazing! They really went above and beyond when taking care of Leo. I can tell that they really care about pets and tried their best to keep Leo happy and fed while we were travelling. Also, loved the regular updates. It really made travelling less stressful knowing that our cat was safe and well looked after. Thank you so much Amyaz and Shareefa!”
“Jayati was excellent in taking care of our cat and dog while we were away for 6 days. She provided medicine everyday to both our pets and provided daily updates about them. Our dog, a chow chow, does not usually get along well with other people but she warmed up to Jayati pretty well. Jayati listened to all our concerns and did a great job to keep our minds at ease with her daily updates. I definitely recommend her and hope I can book her again in the future.”
“Mark stayed at hour home and watched our Bullmastiff for a few days. He was respectful of our home and took good care of our dog, following all of our instructions and keeping us updated each day. I would be happy to hire him again.”
“She was the absolute best! Such a sweet and kind human being that knows how to communicate with dogs. Our little Maltese looked like he was having the best time with her in all the photos she shared!”
About: Have cat sat before for friends, i love walking so don't get tired and don't mind a dog to keep company, no experience with puppies/kittens I love dogs and walking so thought why not help those that need a hand with taking care of their dogs. For both dogs and cats I enjoy playing with them and can help you out with making sure they are cared for when you are not able to be with them. Feed, potty break, play with them as needed. My friends cats pur when i pet them,dogs enjoy having someone to play with. For walks don't know if they will tire before me lol.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since the young age of 6. Friends, neighbours, and family often rely on me to walk and care for their dogs. I currently work part time and have a flexible schedule as well as spare time on my hands to care for your dogs and ensure your dogs get their walks! I will care for your dogs as if they are my own and I will ensure they are safe on their walks and get the exercise they need.
About: I am literally crazy for canines—love their beautiful souls and their big hearts. I am new to professional pet sitting but have over 25 years of experience looking after my own dogs. I am a caregiver for my mom. I also spend a lot of time with my senior girls but have flexibility in my schedule to care for your canine babies. My son Armaan has a special bond with all animals, bugs, birds, etc. He can pretty much take care of any pet! I will be looking after your pets in your home. I will accompany dogs into the yard to play and check to make sure yard gates are closed properly. No yard? No problem! I can take them out on a mini walk so they can relieve themselves. On walks, I am careful to maintain a safe distance between dogs and other walkers, joggers, etc. I make sure dogs are well hydrated and their environment is safe and clean.
About: Hi, I’m Guray! I live in a 1-bedroom condo in Oakville and I’m available to care for your dog over the weekend. I prefer small dogs, and you can feel comfortable knowing your pup will be in a safe and caring environment with me all weekend long. Feel free to message me if you have any questions. I’d love to help! Thank you! Pet care naturally fits into my routine because I enjoy a calm and structured lifestyle. I work from home, so I have the flexibility to give pets the attention they need throughout the day. Whether it’s morning walks, feeding on schedule, or just spending quality time playing or relaxing together, I make sure pets feel safe, happy, and cared for as part of my daily routine. On weekends, I have even more time to dedicate to their comfort and needs. In my home, I make sure pets feel comfortable and safe right away. I keep a calm and clean environment, with space for them to rest, play, and feel at ease. I follow the owner’s instructions closely—whether it’s feeding times, walk schedules, or special routines—and make sure pets get plenty of attention and affection throughout the day. If I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I treat their space with respect and keep the pet’s routine as consistent as possible to help them feel secure. I always communicate regularly with updates and photos so owners feel connected and reassured while they’re away.

Karling S.
“I completely trust Karling with my dog Hershey. Karling took care of Hershey while I was out of town. Hershey is a loving dog, but is also timid/weary around new people. However, the moment he met Karling, he took immediately to her. Tail waging, present giving, belly rubs accepted. He knew she would care for him, walk him and most importantly, was safe with her. Karling treated Hershey like her own. I have no hesitation in recommending Karling.”

Whenever I have brought my own dog over she is very warm with her and has brought out fresh water to keep my dog hydrated. She also makes sure her dogs get lots of exercise and are entertained throughout the day.”
