“When puppy Rosie came into my life almost a year ago, I already had anxiety about what I would do if I needed to go away. I could not bear to leave her! But then Sandra appeared! She put me at ease. Rosie had her first weekend at Sandra’s and it was so awesome. She sent wonderful updates and photos. I’m so happy Rosie had such a healthy and happy experience. Thank you so much!!”
“I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Monica, and look forward to rebooking with her soon. She was delightfully accommodating of my senior dog's nutritional needs, and provided me with regular updates (of a length and frequency that made me feel like I was being cared for as much as my dog!). Monica is lovely to interact with and her kindness extends to us humans, too :) Thank you, Monica!”
“Livia was super with our bigger than life puppy! We really appreciated the last minute booking too! Her updates and pictures she sent were so thoughtful and we hope she didn’t run after The deer too much! We were also totally stoked Georgia was so gentle with her pets! We are very fortunate to have Livia right down the road from us! Cheers! And again, thank you for the last minute booking.”
“Michelle was responsive and accommodating with our dog. We very much appreciate her care for him over the weekend, and when we picked him up, he was in good spirits and apparently well cared for. Recommended!”
“I can’t begin to explain how wonderful I felt leaving Charlie with Robin and Andrew. They helped place this dog Mom at ease and I just knew it would go well. They provided daily pictures and let me know how he was doing and were very consistent. Charlie came home so happy and I would book them again in a heart beat. Thankyou soooooo much”
“Was really flexible as we worked through flight changes and cancellations due to the Westjet strike. Sent us videos and pictures each day while we were away when they were out for walks.”
“Allison is amazing with our dog who loves walks either her and staying with her and running around her acreage. She sent us lots of pictures and updates. So kind and responds quickly. Highly recommend her as a dog walker and boarding,”
“My Tucker was so well cared for with Gail and Ross. There was great communication during the stay and I was provided with updates and pictures. I will definitely continue to use them to care for Tucker going forward. Thanks so much!”
“Leslie was awesome taking care of our Lola providing regular updates, pictures and snuggles. This is our second time having Leslie take on our pup and we always know she is in good hands when there!”
“My girl is a reacued dog. She is very shay and has some trauma so I was worried about sending her for overnights. However, Anna was awesome. She knows how to deal with nervous dogs. She gave us some good tips and advices as well. I could feel her sincere love towards to dogs. Thank you so much!!”
“Desiree was so loving and gentle with Lilly. She gave me photo updates daily and was very attentive to Lilly and her needs. Giving daily cuddles and so much love. Even her family were onboard with all the love and kindness. Lilly looked so happy and was very well cared for. I would highly recommend her and will use Desiree again.”
About: We have over a decade of hands on experience caring for dogs at all stages of life, from energetic pups to seniors who need a little extra care and attention. We’re comfortable caring for senior dogs with arthritis or mobility challenges, including administering medications, helping with lifting when needed, and recognizing when a dog needs to slow down, rest, or have a quieter day. At the same time, we understand that every dog has different needs. Having raised an Australian Shepherd, we know firsthand how much exercise, stimulation, structure, and engagement high energy dogs require. We love getting outside for walks, playtime, and adventures, while making sure each dog’s individual energy level and comfort are respected. Our goal is to make every dog feel safe, loved, and right at home while in our care. We are genuine dog lovers and treat every dog like they are our family. Pet care fits naturally into our lifestyle! I work part-time shift work, while my partner works a regular monday to friday job, so we have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to give dogs the attention and care they need. We love having dogs around and are happy to include them in our daily routine with walks, playtime, outdoor time, and plenty of cuddles. We’re especially interested in longer stays when our schedules allow, as well as weekend stays and boarding during our time off. We’re happy to work with each dog’s individual routine and make their stay feel as much like home as possible! Our home is a safe, comfortable, and dog-friendly environment where your pup can feel right at home. We have a large, fully fenced yard for supervised outdoor time and a dog proofed home where dogs can relax and settle into their own routine. We take the time to learn each dog’s personality, routine, energy level, feeding schedule, and any special needs before their stay. We provide plenty of supervision, exercise, playtime, and attention, while also recognizing when a dog needs some quiet time or a rest. Your dog will be treated as part of the family while they’re with us....with lots of love, patience, cuddles, and care. Our priority is making sure every dog feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for throughout their stay.
“Amazing experience! This was the first time we used Rover and are so happy with Whitney and her family! Our pug was treated like family immediately and was so happy! Highly recommend Whitney!”
“Jeff and his family took such a good care of Scooby. Scooby is a very anxious dog. This was Scooby's first boarding experience and looks like he loved it. They send pictures everyday and updated us as well about day to day activities. Will be booking back for sure! Thank you for everything you guys did for our little Scooby.”

“Thank you for taking such good care of my senior dog. He came home tired! After picking him up, he slept for the remainder of the day. As they say, a tired dog is a happy dog. I also appreciated your timely updates - sending photos and a video of his stay.”
“We dropped our dog off at Kayla's house for the day, and she was fantastic! Ruby had a wonderful time with Kayla, and we were sent photos and updates throughout the day. 10/10 would recommend Kayla!”
“We are very happy with the way Ahmad took care of our dog Akuna. He took him for walks daily, and kept us posted on how Akuna was doing. I would highly recommend Ahmad for taking care of any family pets. You could tell he genuinely enjoyed taking care of Akuna. He even created a couple of fridge magnets of Akuna and gave them to us. 5 star service!!!”

Robin and Andrew are the best! They are patient, easy going and their love of dogs is evident in how quickly our boy took to them! Shelby's never been more calm and happy coming home from a long stay as he was with them. THANK YOU! It's always hard to leave him when we have to travel, but the daily pictures/updates were wonderful, and put my mind at ease that he was indeed having a blast! We'd love for Shelby to stay with them again the next time we have to solo travel, and we will be singing their praises to our family and friends. Thank you again, Robin and Andrew!!
I only had great things to say about Sarah and her beautiful family. They took such a great care of Cloe, got lots of updates while I was away for 3 days and felt the love they give her through the pictures and videos. Their house was clean and I felt very comfortable leaving Cloe with them. I would definitely use them again and 100% recommend them to take care of your fur baby. They will be in great care! Thank you Sarah for everything and looking after Cloe, I can see she loved staying with you guys, and we will be back very soon :)
This was our first time using Rover - I contacted Jessica with only a couple days notice when our friends could no longer watch our dog. She replied right away and was able to accommodate our pets! Our dog stayed with her in her house and she came every day to our house to feed our cat. She kept us up to date on how things were going while we were away. My dog took a day to settle in and he finally did and I know it was because of Jessica's care! I would recommend Jessica for anyone needing a caretaker!
