“Joanne was fantastic with our dog, Penny! She kept us updated with photos and stories throughout Penny’s stay, which gave us great peace of mind. Joanne is caring, trustworthy, and clearly loves dogs. Her family was wonderful, and Penny enjoyed lots of walks, attention, and affection while staying in their home. We’re so glad we found Joanne and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and loving dog sitter!”

“We left Stanley in Maya's care for the past 5 days. She was kind and caring and made sure he was well looked after while we were away.

“Easiest 5⭐️ I’ve ever given! Melissa and Brian are an amazing couple who took such great care of our boy Lincoln. They took the time to ask lots of questions and made sure he would be a good fit for their pack. We did a single trial night (June 18-19) as it was our first time leaving him and they were kind enough to send us lots of pictures & updates on him. He was one tired boy on Sunday but he had a great time! This past weekend they had our big guy for 3 days and when he got out of the car he was SO EXCITED to see them. It definitely reassured us that we made the best decision to send him to Melissa & Brian. He was so loved and spoiled! We’re so happy that our boy is happy, loved, and treated like he was one of their own, and we will forever be bringing him back to you guys! 💙 Highly highly recommend you book with Melissa!”

I highly recommend Kripa & I am looking forward to inquiring for her services again when my dog needs to be looked after.”

About: Hi there! I’m Carlie! 👋 I've been a pet owner my whole life, which has given me a genuine love for both dogs and cats. I’ve had the joy of training playful puppies and even fostering several at once, focusing on potty training and behavior. I particularly adore dachshunds and other small breeds—they truly have a special place in my heart. Cats are just as important to me, and I know how to give them the care they need. Whether it’s playtime, feeding, or just some quality snuggles, your feline companions will be in great hands. I’m also a nature lover, so I enjoy taking long walks in the afternoons and evenings, ensuring your pets get plenty of exercise and fresh air. You can trust that your pets’ happiness and well-being will always be my top priority! I’m a freelance commercial photographer and I make my own schedule which leaves lot of free time during my day to look after your fur babies! I use pet friendly candles + air fresheners and cleaning products. Providing enrichment toys for safe play time, as well as socializing with other dogs outdoors.
“Erinne didn't have to impress us, she had to impress Cinnamon - and she did it in spades! (Impressed we low hoomans as well though lol) Her reports were fantastic and the pics will actually all be kept. Thanks so much, Erinne!!”
“Zahra, was absolutely wonderful!!! Our cats, even the most aloof one, loved seeing Zahra when she arrived to visit. The notes and wonderful pictures Zahra took time to send us were thoughtful, meaningful and caring. She went over and above all our expectations and we truly enjoyed meeting her the day before to gather all the information she needed to care for our lovely fur babies. We highly recommend Zahra to care for your pets and will look forward to hiring her again! Thank you sooo much Zahra... we wish you all the very best!”
“We had such a wonderful experience with Noor! From the moment we dropped our cat off, we felt completely at ease knowing they were in such caring and capable hands. Our cat can be a bit particular, but they took the time to understand their personality and routine, which made all the difference. We received regular updates and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was clear our cat was not only well cared for, but also comfortable and happy in their environment. We came home to a relaxed, well-looked-after kitty, and we couldn’t be more grateful. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a trustworthy, attentive, and genuinely kind cat sitter!”
“Thank you so much Catherine for taking car e of our cats. You did a wonderful job and we really appreciate it. I am glad to hear that Mattie is Around you during your visit. We really want them to allow other people to take care of them so that we can get change to travel more. Because of them we hardly travel as it is hard to arrange someone to take care of them. We will for sure to hire you again next time if you are available. We are planning another trip in September.”
About: When I was younger I had a dog named Rascal. He was a golden retriever that I trained to become a therapy dog. Actually, believe it or not, I trained other people on how their dogs should behave to become therapy dogs. I don't do that now but it was a great experience. I'm a personal trainer, most of my clients want to train in the morning or evening, so I'm usually free during the day. I go for walks most days anyways so I figure, why not help out someone and their dog and make a little extra on the side, no matter the weather. I'm a professional and safety always comes first, no matter if it's a person or a dog, your pet's in safe hands. Pets are family, so they need to be taken care of.
About: I’ve been caring for dogs for over 15 years, including my own two pups with very different needs. I have hands-on experience supporting dogs through medical conditions, including helping my first dog through cancer treatment and post-surgery care. I’m also comfortable administering medications and following detailed care instructions from vets. I have extensive experience with senior dogs, providing the patience, support, and comfort they need. On the other end of the spectrum, my current dog is high-energy and requires a lot of mental and physical stimulation, so I’m well-versed in creating enriching activities and structured routines. Additionally, I have experience with reactive and fear-reactive dogs, including reactivity toward fast-moving objects, children, and other dogs. I understand how to approach these situations calmly and safely to keep everyone comfortable. I’m also familiar with certain e-collars and am open to discussing their use with pet parents if needed. My top priority is always to ensure that your pet feels safe, loved, and cared for while you’re away. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine! I work from home on Tuesdays and Thursdays, which gives me flexibility for drop-in visits and walks. On those days, I’m available early mornings (before 8 a.m.), during my lunch break (12–2 p.m.), and after 4 p.m. On Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays, I offer evening walks. Weekends vary depending on my schedule, but I keep my calendar up to date so you’ll always know when I’m available. I’m happy to accommodate different schedules whenever possible! Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. During drop-in visits, I follow your routine closely—whether that’s feeding, playing, giving medication, or providing potty breaks—so your pet feels secure and cared for in their own space. For walks, I always use secure leashes or harnesses, avoid unsafe areas, and keep a close eye on your dog’s behavior and energy. I’m also experienced with reactive dogs and know how to create calm, positive walking experiences. I treat your home and your pet with respect, as if they were my own.
About: I am very patient and attentive with dogs and cats, including puppies and seniors, providing walks, playtime, feeding, medication, companionship, and individualized care with love. My flexible schedule allows me to provide reliable walks, drop ins, daycare, and overnight care, while ensuring every pet receives consistent attention and companionship always. I provide a clean, calm, secure environment, carefully follow instructions, supervise pets closely, maintain safe walks, and keep owners updated throughout their care when needed.
About: Ever since I was 8 years old I always enjoyed taking care of our multiple family cats by feeding and spending quality time with them. I cared for my cat mango for 17 wonderful years and he meant the world to me. I also enjoy spending time with our family dog who we've had for 15 years. I would take him for walks, feed him, pet-sit him while my parents were away, and play with him at the park in his younger years. I have experience litter training cats and my former pet rabbit. Pet care fits into my daily routine as I have many year's experience it's something I am passionate about. I also have a flexible work schedule which allows me to set my own routines without much interference. I've cared for pets for many years growing up as a child and into my adulthood, therefore it's something I really enjoy doing. In client's homes I would treat their pet as if it were my own and ensure they get the best care possible during the visit.
“We greatly appreciated Nicole’s help while we were away on vacation. She simply dropped in twice/day to provide Mosby (our senior cat) meals and administer his insulin injections. Nicole is warm, confident and friendly. You can tell she truly cares about all the animals she takes care of.”
“I booked Olivia for drop-in visits for my 2 cats, while I was on Vacation for a week. She is very friendly, trustworthy, and my cats loved her. It was my first time using Rover and Olivia walked me through everything I needed to do in the app. I highly recommend Olivia and will be a repeat customer for sure!”
“We felt at ease with Jennifer taking care of our 4 cats while we were out of town. She sent us updates and was easy to communicate with. I would definitely consider hiring her again and would recommend her to anyone who needs a pet sitter.”
About: I'm not as new to professional pet caring now, but I'm constantly learning and I have respect and love for animals. I have cared for pet dog and cat from puppy to old age and I am always learning from experts on how to handle most situations that will arise. I am able to be extremely active and engaging with animals to ensure they are properly stimulated and socialized. I take my job very seriously as a guardian of a pet myself I know that they are as much family as pet. I will always take special care to listen to a pet's guardian's advice on how to care for their pet so that they are properly taken care of as they deserve and expect to be treated. I’m currently self employed and mainly work at night when my dogs are asleep. During the day I am free to look after not only my dogs but also other people’s pets as well. When I’m not working I’m often taking care of my dog’s needs. I follow instructions from pet owners and ask about their pet to find out what kind of care they need. Every dog has its own personality and needs and I do the best to treat them as their owner would treat them so their stay is as comfortable as possible.
About: Hi Pet Owners; NOW ACCEPTING NEW CLIENTS I am an elementary school teacher by day and a dog walker/sitter by night. Dogs are and have always been my passion. For many years, I have provided daily care for pets while their owners were away, and took responsibility for routine duties (walks, putting out fresh water, cleaning litter boxes, etc.) while owners were at work. I understand that life gets hectic, so I like to support pet owners by vacuuming pet hair in the house, and bathing and grooming their fur babies. In the past, I have watched and walked anxious dogs. My philosophy is to use positive reinforcement to encourage dogs to display more acceptable behaviours, more frequently. I am fully available to attend to all of your animal's needs starting Friday night until Sunday, holidays and extended stays over the summer. Please check my availability as my summer is filling up. I live in a condo in Bowmanville. The building has a large courtyard where your dog can interact with other dogs if they like dog interactions. I also live close to several trails and safe roads with sidewalks. In my neighbourhood, there are many schools with large fields where I can take your dog to exert their energy.
About: If my animals could speak they would tell you they need alone time lol. They are never alone. Our house is a revolving door of our family coming and going. I am home every evening and weekend. Finding the "time" to add this to my life won't be difficult. I enjoy walking my own dogs every night so adding additional walks to my weeks is something I look forward too. My hours of availability for dog walking are : MONDAY TO THURSDAY: From Approximately 530 pm on. FRIDAYS: From approximately 130 pm on. SATURDAY and SUNDAY: All day All times are subject to change but would be happy to have a chat and confirm! ❤️ I have a fenced yard, a husband and 3 teenagers who love animals. I can crate your fur baby upon request, but otherwise I wouldn't. I love to walk and love going to the trails. I prefer not to go-to any dog park unfortunately.
“Esten is such a great help! He was able to help us with our dog after she broke her leg and had an ulcer in her eye. He was able to administer her drops/meds all while playing with her and making sure she had water and went out. Great sitter!”
About: I’ve had cats my whole life, unfortunately my senior cat passed away last year so I’m looking to take care of some fur babies while I wait for the right new companion. I have experience with Siamese, Himalayan and tabby cats 🐈

“I couldn't be happier with the care my dog received. From the very beginning, it was clear that you genuinely love and understand dogs. You took the time to make sure my dog felt comfortable, safe, and happy throughout the stay. I really appreciated the regular photo updates and messages. It gave me great peace of mind knowing that my dog was being so well cared for while I was away. You were attentive to every detail, from feeding and walks to making sure my dog got plenty of attention and affection. When I picked my dog up, he/she was relaxed, happy, and clearly had a wonderful time. It's not easy to find someone you can completely trust with your pet, but you exceeded all my expectations. Thank you for treating my dog like part of your family. I would absolutely book with you again and highly recommend you to anyone looking for a caring, responsible, and trustworthy pet sitter.”
About: I am a dog lover. I have a toy poodle at home which is like family to me. I love small dogs and take care of them like family. I work from home and always available.

“This was our first time using rover for our dogs and we couldn’t have picked a better sitter, we felt that our dogs were in great hands. Loryn gave us a detailed update and photos of our dogs, she even made some cute magnets for us too. We will definitely be using Loryn again!!”
About: My entire life has been richly blessed by the presence of dogs. For over 17 years, I have had the joy and responsibility of being a dedicated dog owner, and my experience is rooted in a home filled with a vibrant pack of nine dogs, each of a different breed and size, who taught me the beautiful diversity of the canine world. While my family back home cares for them, I currently have my own faithful companion by my side—a constant reminder of the profound bond between a person and their pet. This lifelong immersion has given me a deep-seated passion for canine care that extends beyond my own animals. I have frequently provided care for the pets of friends and family, treating each one with the same love and attention I would my own. What I cherish most is getting to know each dog as the unique individual they are. I understand that every "fur baby" has their own distinct personality, preferences, and quirks, and there is no one-size-fits-all approach to their care. I would be absolutely delighted to learn everything you are willing to share about your beloved companion—their favorite games, their daily routines, their little quirks, and any specific instructions you have. Please know that you can always feel comfortable letting me know precisely what to do and what to avoid; your guidance is my most valuable tool. It would be my genuine privilege and pleasure to provide your dog with a fun, safe, and nurturing experience, filled with engaging play and heartfelt companionship. I look forward to the opportunity to meet you and your wonderful dog. 🐾 My daily schedule is built around the needs of the pets in my care. I treat their routine with the same importance as any other essential daily commitment. The hands-on duties of pet care, like bathing, feeding, and play, are tasks I've always genuinely loved doing for my own dogs and my relatives' pets. I am truly excited to provide that same level of dedicated, hands-on love and attention to your furry baby! please do let me know of how you take care of your pet and I will maintain that for me and your dogs relationship on going.
“Mellissa was so good with my old man Rio who is a big ol love bug who sometimes has tummy issues. This was a last minute booking and the communication was great, her family was warm and welcoming and Rio was well taken care of.”
About: I have a very friendly Australian Shepherd that loves dogs and people! I walk her 3 times a day. I am flexible with times throughout the day or evening. I can do single walks around the neighbourhood or trail walks. I always make safety a priority for your dog. I will keep the dogs on a leash with a harness / collar, and away from other dogs (in the neighbourhood) if that is requested. Please don't hesitate to ask me any questions! I will have time throughout the day to spend with your pup ensuring that their stay / walk is enjoyable and they are getting the attention they require Boarding at my home: I live in Bowmanville and am home throughout the day and evening. We have a fenced in backyard with a park in behind the house. Your dog will be walked and fed according to your schedule. My dog will be very happy to have the company. I do not visit dog parks, or take your pet off leash if that is what is requested.
“She was absolutely wonderful with my dog! She was very caring, attentive, reliable, and made me feel completely comfortable leaving him in her care.

I would definitely recommend her and would happily book with her again!”

“Olivia was amazing with our pup! She took good care of our fur baby and home while we were gone! She was respectful and good about updates — always friendly and kind! We returned to a healthy, happy pup + a clean home! What more could you want?! We are looking forward to using Olivia again!”
“I can’t say enough good things about Laurel, Walter and Tux. Our two dogs have some anxiety related issues, but Laurel never batted an eye. She was patient and comforting to our dogs until they got used to the routine. Now they can’t wait to go over and play with their best buddy Tux. We are forever grateful for the care Laurel provides. She is wonderful and we are very fortunate. Couldn’t recommend her more.”
“Mahan was so amazing with our little Benji. He felt comfortable and loved. She kept me updated with his day and sent pictures as well. I would recommend sending your fur baby to her, you won’t regret it!”
“Liliana was amazing with my pup! She kept me updated throughout the day with tons of cute pictures and was so sweet and caring with him. She made sure he was well-fed, got plenty of potty breaks, and just overall gave him so much love. I’m really grateful for her 5-star dog sitting—she made me feel totally at ease knowing he was in such good hands. Would 100% trust her with him again! Thank you!”

“I was very hesitant to have anyone walk my dog! He is fabulous but has his issues, resource guarding, pulling, chasing squirrels like it's his paid job, leash biting etc. Erinne put those fears to rest, she is professional and my dog was calm"ish around her. So grateful I found her. If you don't take my time slot, I highly recommend her.”
“I had Zehta walk and care for my dog for seven days, and I was very impressed. She was caring, reliable, and always showed up on time. I really appreciated the regular updates and could tell Frieda was well looked after. Everything was handled efficiently and with genuine care. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy dog walker with rescue experience and a true passion for what she does.”
About: I've cared for and trained a wide variety of small to larger dogs ever since I was a young girl, from puppies to seniors. Recently, my family had to say goodbye to our beautiful 15 year old furry friend Patches. I am looking to nurture this love of dogs through caring for local dogs in the community, requiring walks or boarding (in my home, with large fenced in backyard). I currently work part time as a fitness professional so have much time and positive energy to share with your precious friend. I am available for weekday, afternoon walks, according to the needs of your dog. This could be a individual or group leash walk, a social off leash park, or a swim at the lake, depending on our agreed upon arrangement. For boarding I am available 7 days a week with your dog being cared for in a loving home with myself, my husband, and our 2 adult children in post secondary studies. We are all very familiar, love connecting, playing with and caring for dogs. I have a large, fenced in yard and live in a lovely pet friendly community close to trails, on & off leash parks and Lake Ontario. I will respect how you wish for your dog to be cared for and enjoy open communication to ensure we are a suitable fit. With a professional background in fitness & wellness, you'll find me to be very safety conscious (current Standard First Aid & CPR) along with being a active, trusted certified Personal Trainer, Yoga & Pilates teacher for 2 local community centres. Having much experience interacting and caring for dogs of all ages and sizes, I assure you your furry pal will be in loving hands. Additionally, I would enjoy sending you photos to see what they're up to.
“I can’t say enough great things about Emma. From the first walk, it was clear how much she cares about dogs. Rocky was immediately at ease with her, and I could tell he was in great hands. Emma is reliable, punctual, and always goes the extra mile to make sure Rocky gets the exercise, attention, and fun he needs. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a dog walker who’s not only professional but truly passionate about dogs!”
About: I've lived with dogs for almost all of my life and have helped care for the pets of my friends and family when they've gone on vacation. I am used to taking dogs for long walks and performing basic grooming activities. I have experience caring for dogs with health problems and dogs that have an overabundance of energy. You can rest assured that I will cater to your pet's needs and ensure that while they are under my care they will have a wonderful and peaceful experience.

I'm available anytime of the week to help take care of your pet. My home has a fenced yard and I live with my three other family members. We will always have the time to watch over and care for your pet. My family loves going for walks and will have plenty of time and energy to take your dog for as many walks as they would like.

About: I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember. Growing up, I was always the person friends, family, and neighbors would ask to look after their pets because they knew how much I genuinely enjoyed spending time with animals. While I’m new to Rover, caring for pets isn’t new to me. I’ve looked after dogs for family members and friends, whether that meant taking them for walks, spending time with them while their owners were away, or making sure they felt loved and cared for throughout the day. Outside of Rover, I’m a wedding photographer with flexible weekday availability. Since I’m already someone who loves being outdoors, staying active, and getting fresh air, dog walking felt like the perfect fit. I truly enjoy being around animals, and I’d love the opportunity to give your pup a fun walk, plenty of attention, and lots of care while you’re away! I understand that every dog has their own personality and routine, and I’ll always do my best to make them feel safe, comfortable, and happy. I’m a photographer so I do have pretty flexible hours. I work mostly on weekends but I have a lot of extra time during week ! Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I’ll always follow your care instructions carefully, pay close attention to your pet’s needs, and provide dependable, loving care while you’re away. During walks, I’ll keep dogs securely leashed, stay aware of our surroundings, avoid unsafe situations, and make sure they have plenty of water and breaks when needed. For drop-in visits, I’ll ensure your pet has fresh water, food (if requested), potty breaks, playtime, and lots of attention. I’ll also keep you updated with messages and photos so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I understand how much our pets mean to us, and I’ll treat yours with the same care, patience, and kindness I would my own.

Whether it’s playtime, snuggles, or just keeping them company, I make sure every dog feels at home and happy. I know how hard it can be to leave your fur baby behind. That’s why I’m big on photo updates, daily check-ins, and keeping you in the loop. Can’t wait to meet your furry best friend Pet care fits perfectly into my routine—I work from home, so I’m around all day to give dogs plenty of attention, playtime, and potty breaks.

I do slow, supervised introductions with my own friendly, well-trained dog and stick to each pup’s routine to help them feel at home. My space is clean, calm, and dog-friendly, and I provide regular updates so you always know your pet is safe and happ

I cared for my cat mango for 17 wonderful years and he meant the world to me. I also enjoy spending time with our family dog who we've had for 15 years. I would take him for walks, feed him, pet-sit him while my parents were away, and play with him at the park in his younger years. I have experience litter training cats and my former pet rabbit.

I also have a flexible work schedule which allows me to set my own routines without much interference. I've cared for pets for many years growing up as a child and into my adulthood, therefore it's something I really enjoy doing. In client's homes I would treat their pet as if it were my own and ensure they get the best care possible during the visit.
“We are so happy we found Amy! She is such a lovely person and my dogs absolutely loved her. I appreciated her communication and she was so accommodating. We will be very happy to call on her again. We would highly recommend her!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind since I was 12. Growing up with German Shepherds and now paw parent to a Golden Retriever. I’m currently part-time working throughout a full time job. My love for animals keeps me caring and wanting to assist local dog owners. They bring meaning to our day. I have a fenced yard to allow the dogs to run around out back. They also have an air conditioned and heated home to come into.
“Amanda is easy to communicate with and I appreciated her letting me show her around. She did great dealing with his jumping and not to encourage it. Amanda had a great walk with Ben and I appreciated her walking him. My dog is energetic and strong and Amanda handled him well. I will definitely be booking her again. Thank you.”
“Mike was great to deal with with proper handling of our young golden retriever. Was on time, even in the rain and was a big help on short notice when we needed it. Will be back for more walks in the future”
