You can tell they really, really love dogs and treat your fur baby like their own.

“I recently left my 3.5 year old Golden Retriever, Scotch, with Yoda for the first time, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. Like any pet parent, I was a little nervous about leaving him somewhere new, but Yoda quickly put my mind at ease. She was warm, communicative, and experienced with dogs. Throughout Scotch’s stay, she kept me updated with photos and messages, which meant the world to me. Most importantly, when I picked him up, he was calm, happy, and very comfortable, something that said more than words ever could. It’s such a relief to know I have someone I can trust with Scotch. I will be booking with Yoda again in the future. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a loving and responsible sitter!”

“This was my first time using Rover and Oleksandra did not disappoint!! My family and I had to be out of our house for a week to try to sell our home and we booked our pet-friendly airbnb a little late so we had no place for my 4 kitties! Oleksandra was not only kind enough to help out but she also called on a friend to pick up and drop off with her because her vehicle wasn't working! She was fantastic with sending me photos and videos of my kitties and they were all taken great care of!! Oleksandra was a lifesaver and a sweet person as well!! Thank you SO much for your help with my kitties (who mean a lot to me!!) - especially during such a tumultuous time in our lives! Definitely recommend Oleksandra for anyone who needs help with pet care!! <3”

I have been a cat parent for about 7 years while also taking care of cats at daycares and in the shelter system. I have fostered kittens, socialized very shy and semi feral cats and provided many snuggles and playtimes to kitties in my care.

Cats are unique and special and deeply loved by their parents, I strive to provide the best care for them so they live long, happy and fun lives.
About: I’ve had my cat, Gracie, for almost 10 years, so I understand how important it is to provide calm, consistent, and loving care. I’m experienced with feeding routines, litter care, playtime, and respecting each cat’s unique personality. Whether they’re affectionate or more independent. I take a patient, gentle approach to make sure every cat feels safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away.
About: 🐶 About Me Hi! I’m Elyssa — a reliable, attentive animal lover who genuinely enjoys caring for pets as if they’re my own. I understand how important it is to feel completely comfortable leaving your pet with someone, and I take that responsibility seriously. I’m calm, patient, and very tuned in to animal behaviour. Whether your dog loves long walks and playtime or prefers a slower, cozy vibe, I adjust to their personality and routine. I’m especially attentive to signs of discomfort, stress, or changes in behaviour — your pet’s safety and wellbeing always come first. ⸻ 🐾 My Experience • Experience with medium to large breeds • Comfortable with senior dogs and dogs with mobility considerations • Familiar with basic training cues and reinforcing good habits • Confident handling dogs on leash • Experienced with feeding routines, medication schedules, and special instructions I also understand that some dogs can be anxious when their owners are away. I focus on keeping their routine consistent and providing reassurance, structure, and lots of positive attention. ⸻ 🏡 What You Can Expect ✔️ Reliable and punctual ✔️ Frequent photo and video updates ✔️ Clear communication ✔️ Clean and respectful care of your home ✔️ Lots of love, belly rubs, and enrichment I treat every pet like family — and I know they aren’t “just dogs.” They’re your babies. I work shift-based hours, which gives me flexibility that a traditional 9–5 schedule doesn’t. On my days off, I have full daytime availability for walks, drop-ins, and quality time. On workdays, I’m often available mornings, evenings, or overnight depending on my rotation. Because I’m used to managing a rotating schedule, I’m very organized and intentional with my time. I only accept bookings that I know I can fully commit to, and I avoid overbooking so every dog receives calm, focused attention. Shift work also means I’m comfortable with early mornings, late evenings, and non-traditional routines — which is perfect for pet parents who work long hours or unconventional schedules themselves. Your dog won’t feel rushed or squeezed in — they’ll have dedicated, reliable care built into my week. I bring calm energy, strong communication, attention to detail, and genuine care. Your dog will be treated with patience, structure, and lots of positive reinforcement — like they’re my own.

About: I would love to give my attention and care to your pet, so while your away you know they are getting all the love and care they deserve!! I have been a pet owner for many years as well as fostering. I have an open schedule which I can work with to accommodate your timeline. If you need anything extra, just ask! I will always try to make things work. I live on a farm, free from kids and other dogs. If I was giving the opportunity, I would make sure your dog would have the best experience possible!!
“She was amazing and I’ll always come to her if I need someone to take care of Maverick. She made sure my puppy who is 5 months was introduced to the other dogs slowly and comfortably. She sent me many updates, photos and videos. I had someone cancel on me last minute and she responds right away. I’m very happy and recommend her to anyone using this app! She also has a lot of availability, flexibility, a yard and ensures the puppies needs are being met. She made sure all my questions were answered and that I was confident to put Maverick in her care!”
“Kollin has become our go to weekly dog sitter for his daycare needs. We had originally tried things out after our favourite daycare closed down, and Kollin has been great since. Link loves going and he’s a happy dog when he comes home! Kollin has been great with our super high energy dog! And he’s been super flexible through our very long days at work! Which happens a lot unfortunately, so having an option for link to not be in his crate too much makes us really happy! Plus we love the continued socialization for Link as many different dogs are in and out of Kollin’s care when Link is there and Link loves playing with them! We’re really happy with Kollin’s professionalism and care for Link! We keep booking with him weekly!”
“Bill was terrific. Our dog was happy and relaxed when we picked him up. Bill was accommodating and attentive, excellent communication throughout. Would recommend Bill. Thanks for taking such great care of our furry family member.”
“Diana was very loving with Harley, showing him lots of affection. My senior dog struggles with separation anxiety and she put him at ease. I look forward to Harley staying with Diana again and would recommend her to others looking for care!”
“Jennifer was and is awesome felt very comfortable leaving Rusty with her. It felt like home and he was a happy dog tired but very happy when he got home. I would not hesitate to have Jennifer again”
“OK … so we’re a little nutty about our pup, but wanted to ensure Leslie knew what she was signing up for! Apparently, Maeve was an angel … settled in and enjoyed her visit. This is the first time - ever - we opted to board Maeve, and the day stay was a success … easing our minds about leaving her for two weeks. After today, we know we made the right decision with Leslie and Richard - a lovely, caring couple. Thank you!”
About: Animals have always been a big part of my life, and caring for them brings me so much joy. I’ve worked with dogs of all ages, from playful puppies to senior dogs who need a little extra TLC. I believe every dog has their own personality and needs, and I love getting to know each one individually. My home is a calm and pet-friendly space, and I treat every dog that visits like family. I also understand how hard it can be to leave your pet in someone else’s care, which is why I make communication a top priority. I’m always happy to send photos and updates so you can feel at ease while you’re away. As a full-time stay-at-home wife, I have a very flexible schedule and am available throughout the day to care for your pup. Whether it’s a midday walk, or last-minute drop-ins, I’m here to help. I’m home most of the time, which means your dog will get lots of attention, interaction, and supervision—no long stretches alone. We have a friendly puppy of our own who loves to make new doggy friends! It’s a great environment for dogs who enjoy socializing and playing with others. I keep a calm, structured home where pets can feel safe and loved, and I’m happy to work with your pet’s specific routine or needs. Because I’m always nearby, I can give frequent potty breaks, playtime, and cuddles. I also provide quick responses and regular photo updates to keep you in the loop. My goal is to make you and your pet feel as comfortable and cared for as possible! I live in an house and go for daily walks, I also go across the road to a fairground to let my pup run around when we aren’t playing in our backyard!
“Thank you for making everything work so smoothly and accommodating us on such short notice. We truly appreciate the effort to get it done close to our deadline. We will definitely be back again!”
About: I have loved dogs my whole life. I begged my mom for years to get one as a child, and ever since age 10 I have had a beagle almost non-stop. Currently, I have a 2-year old beagle named Floyd whom you can see on Instagram as The_Biking_Beagle. If you live or work in downtown London, it's possible you've seen us biking to the dog park, which we do almost every day. I raised him since 2 months old, so I have experience with puppies as well as senior dogs. My last dog Odie was a rescue from Kentucky, and he was likely about 8-10 years old when I got him. So I love dogs of all ages-and breeds. If you think your dog would like to join us on a bike ride to the dog park, that could be arranged. Either way, I will be happy to spend time with and walk your furry friend! I have a flexible work schedule that allows me to choose my hours. Let me know when you need, and I will make time for you. I have a very friendly 2 year old beagle who gets along with almost any dog and loves to play. I also have a beautiful and very talkative cat, who has her own space if necessary, but also loves to socialize if the dog is friendly to cats. But if not, she does have her own highway of ledges and cat trees and closet space so there is no worry about her safety. I am also happy to care for your cat or dog in your home. I love to play with and spend time with animals, so you can be sure your fur baby is in good hands!
“Bentley spent an entire Saturday with Rugile and her partner and had the best time. I received many amazing photos and video clips throughout the day to see what they were up to. I had a great feeling from the meet n' greet and appreciated how proactive Rugile is in communicating. Will definitely be reaching out again to have them care for my furbaby.”
“Amazing sitter! I had such a stressful day ahead of me including an appointment I absolutely could not miss. I was very nervous to leave my service animal with someone as she has severe separation anxiety and normally resorts to self harm due to past trauma leading to this separation anxiety. She is glued to me at all times and usually needs a hand physically on her in order to regulate I had to wait for a wait and save uber outside her home and thought for sure I would hear crying from inside shortly after I stepped out but I heard nothing like that and instead got adorable pictures of my senior high needs pup shortly after enjoying Katherine’s fenced in backyard. She looked so calm! When I got back my dog got super energetic when I first walked in but very shortly returned to a calm energy level and didn’t have any issues at all! I am amazed! While communicating with Katherine leading up to meeting, I checked in multiple times as I was very nervous despite all the wonderful reviews on her page because of the level of my dog’s needs/anxiety. I gave a full list of my dog’s needs/tips on how to care for her twice and both times she read through it fully and reassured me that she had the skills and genuine interest in keeping my dog regulated and making sure she had a chill hangout while I dealt with what I needed to while I was in town. I would absolutely recommend Katherine to anyone looking for a reliable, friendly and knowledgeable person sitter who is committed to creating a safe place for your pet 10/10”
“Josey was absolutely incredible with our dog — we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. From the moment we arrived, it was clear that her home is a true little paradise for dogs: warm, welcoming, and perfectly set up for them to feel safe and happy. Highly recommend!”
“I'm so happy I reached out to Sandra for daycare for my 9 month old herding pup, Buddy. She responded right away and asked all the right questions. I could tell right away she was a pro at reading dogs' body language and at kindly managing the behavioral issues we've been struggling with. She offered great advice and worked with him throughout his entire stay. He even trained at her side as she worked at the market which was an invaluable experience, especially for a nervous pup at his age. You can be confident leaving your pet with Sandra knowing they are in the best hands. I look forward to them spending more time together again soon.”

I will always be outside with the dogs and sticking to the owner's routine and I am use to dogs not leash trained and heavy puller when walking in the backyard for potty breaks No dogs are off leash in the backyard because dogs don't recall dogs have to be leashed

“Walter is true Dog & Cat Whisperer and I highly recommend him!!! Our furbabies absolutely love him - even our rescue dog, who has more trust issues than I do. Walter not treats your furbabies like his own but comes with integrity & goes above and beyond. Buddy, Mona, Cargo & Piper say a HUGE Thank you and all agree - 5 stars is well deserved!!!”
About: I have been taking care of animals since I was little. I grew up on a hobby farm in Springfield and ever since I can remember I’ve always had an attachment to them.

She gets walked at least 3 times a day for a minimum of 15-20 minutes, and upwards of 2 hours (at least once a day or every other day). She eats when her humans are home or she’s burned a bunch of energy. She is so loved, and loves to cuddle with us. She gets to roam out in the backyard as she pleases, and grazes the grass like a little bovine! Your pet will be treated no less than the best. I’m happy to cater to their specific needs in whatever ways I can possibly muster! Food, exercise, treats, regiment, etc I want make the best of our time together!

I am attentive to their routines, needs, and personalities, ensuring they receive the right balance of play, rest, and affection. You can trust that I treat every pet as if they were my own, with patience, responsibility, and genuine love. My goal is to give you peace of mind while creating a safe, happy space where your fur babies can thrive.
About: For the past 6 years, I’ve raised a Labrador retriever since he was a puppy, cared for dogs as if they were my own. I truly believe pets are family, and they deserve to feel safe, loved, and understood — especially when their owners are away. I have experience with energetic puppies who need patience and gentle training guidance, as well as senior dogs who require a slower pace, extra comfort, and attentive care. I take time to learn each dog’s personality, routines, and little quirks so they feel secure and happy in my care. My goal is simple: allow dogs to sniff & have fun during walks, tire them for good sleep & keep the tails wagging. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. I structure my schedule to ensure dogs receive consistent attention, regular walks, playtime, and quiet rest periods. I enjoy starting and ending my day with walks and check-ins, so your dog gets steady care rather than rushed visits. Because I plan my week around the pets I’m caring for, I’m able to maintain their routines as closely as possible — feeding times, exercise, medication (if needed), and lots of affection. Caring for dogs isn’t something I “fit in” — it’s something I genuinely prioritize and enjoy. I have a fenced backyard & a very friendly Labrador Retriever dog ready to play & we provide a safe, calm, and structured environment in my home where dogs feel comfortable and cared for. I follow each dog’s regular routine as closely as possible — including feeding schedules, walk times, play sessions, and rest periods — so they feel secure and settled. For boarding and daycare, I make sure dogs get a healthy balance of exercise, mental stimulation, and quiet time. I’m attentive to their body language and personality, whether they’re energetic and playful or need a slower, gentler pace. During walks, I focus on safety, leash manners, and giving them a positive, enjoyable experience. Most importantly, I treat every dog like family and provide regular updates and photos so you always feel connected and at ease.

“I recently left my 3.5 year old Golden Retriever, Scotch, with Yoda for the first time, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. Like any pet parent, I was a little nervous about leaving him somewhere new, but Yoda quickly put my mind at ease. She was warm, communicative, and experienced with dogs. Throughout Scotch’s stay, she kept me updated with photos and messages, which meant the world to me. Most importantly, when I picked him up, he was calm, happy, and very comfortable, something that said more than words ever could. It’s such a relief to know I have someone I can trust with Scotch. I will be booking with Yoda again in the future. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a loving and responsible sitter!”

“Alexandria hosted my dog, Enzo, for ten days while I was away on vacation in Mexico. He’s a very hyper, energetic boy and she took it in stride— even when he peed inside early on in the boarding. She sent a daily update with photos and he was his usual, happy self upon my return. I will definitely reach out to her again the next time I’m away and would not hesitate to recommend her to others. Thanks Alexandria!”
