“Paige looked after our two cats, one who is diabetic, and did an excellent job! She provided us with great updates while we were gone and we were able to enjoy our trip as we knew our cats were in good hands. We will definitely use her again!”


“Brittany popped in to walk / love out pup while we had a day out with the kids. She was amazing. She kept me informed she was on time and my puppy loved her. Will definitely use her again”



“Lorin was so amazing and no doubt I will be booking her again. We have a high energy, anxiety filled frenchie who is reactive on a leash with dogs and i've been soooo hesitant to leave her with a sitter but Lorin was the best decision I made.

About: I've owned and loved dogs since I was 10 and been the go-to person called upon for relatives, family and friends to walk, feed, dog-sit or simply play with any and all furry four-legged friends. They've provided me so much love and joy and I try to give that back to a human's best friend at every opportunity I can! I'm currently working from home and have a very flexible schedule to take your dog out for walks and make sure they're well looked after while you may be out during the days! After a meeting with you and your dog I can create a level of trust with the very good boy or girl and get a feel for what your needs and expectations are.

“Alicia took exceptional care of our cat, Duncan, while we were away on vacation. Duncan was a stray and sometimes takes a little bit to warm up to people… but not Alicia! He loved her in less than a day. She definitely will be at the top of our list for pet care in the future.”


About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life—big and small. From playful Boxers to feisty Westies, I understand how to match energy, personality, and needs. I’m confident handling both large and small breeds, and I bring a calm, caring presence that dogs instantly trust. Whether it’s a puppy learning the ropes or a senior pup needing a slower pace, I adapt every walk to suit your dog’s comfort and style. I have a flexible schedule during the school year while my kids are in school, which gives me plenty of availability for daytime walks and check-ins. In the summer, I’m often out and about with my kids—and we love including furry friends in our outdoor time! Pet care fits naturally into my day, and I treat every walk as a chance for your pup to get exercise, attention, and love. At my home, your dog will enjoy a safe, fenced yard for playtime and a cozy, stress-free environment. We’re close to scenic walking trails, so your pup will get plenty of outdoor exercise and enrichment. Whether I'm caring for your pet in my home or yours, I focus on creating a calm, loving space where your dog feels secure, happy, and well cared for.

About: 💕Caring for animals has always been my passion. Over the years, I’ve shared my life with a joyful parrot, cared for graceful cats, best dogs and now, I have an amazing, well-trained dog by my side. I personally handled all of my dog’s training, which taught me how essential being patient and caring. Understanding each dog’s unique needs and providing them with a safe and loving environment is not just something I do—it’s a way of life for me. I take pride in earning their trust and ensuring they feel secure and cared for. With my love for animals and hands-on experience, I’m confident that your dog will be in the best hands.🎀 I’m a dog mom studying from home, I have a big house with a very big grass fenced yard, I love walking with my dog, preparing some mental stimulation for dogs to keep them in a healthy mental state, and I’m always stick to their routine. I believe dogs need both love and respect to thrive. While I shower them with affection and attention, I also understand the importance of providing the structure and routine they need to feel secure. Respecting their boundaries and helping them feel like a valued member of the family or pack is at the heart of how I build trust-based relationships with animals. In my care, every day is a balance of fun, structure, and plenty of love. A healthy dog is one who enjoys a balanced, fulfilling life, and I’m committed to creating that environment for them. With my experience, dedication, and nurturing yet disciplined approach, I ensure your dog feels safe, happy, and truly cared for.

“Alicia was great at looking after our two adult siberian cats. She fed them well, changed litter and played with them on every visit. She also realized how different the two cats are and attended to their needs really well. Alicia is fond of cats and we have no hesitation in using her again in the future. She also attended to some household needs ( lights/ blinds etc.) which was very helpful too. Thank you Alicia for making sure that our kitties were well loved and taken care of 😊”


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. I prefer to keep the dogs with me during the day if I can and they usually love the little adventures. 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.

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.

“Karling dropped in a few times to take care of my bunny Parsley while I was gone for the weekend. She was super responsive to messages and really attentive to any specific care instructions i left for her. 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: 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.

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

About: I’ve always loved pets and have personal experience caring for my beloved cocker spaniel, Peaches, for 11 wonderful years back in India. She was more than a pet—she was family. From daily walks, feeding nutritious meals, regular grooming, and playdates, I ensured she was a happy, healthy, and thriving part of our lives. Since moving to Canada, I’ve deeply missed the joy of having a pet around. Dog sitting is my way of reconnecting with that warmth and happiness. I promise to bring the same level of love, care, and dedication to your furry friend, treating them like my own! 🐾 I’m currently job searching, so I’m home almost all day during the week. I’d love to have your pet as my companion, and being home allows me to give them my full attention and care whenever needed! I live in a pet-friendly apartment in downtown London, nestled in a quiet, low-traffic area. The locality has plenty of green spaces perfect for regular walks. My spacious 2 BHK home, shared with my family, provides ample room to accommodate pets comfortably.
