“Katia looked after our dog, Skittles for 2 weeks when we were traveling overseas. Katia sent updates and photos daily how Skittles was doing and what they did that day. Katia and her family, along with their family dog, loved our "social butterfly" pup so Skittles fit right into their home! Skittles was happy to see us but I am sure she would like to go back some time. We will definitely use Katia again.”
“Siobhan and Marc were great! We used them for doggy daycare while we went to Santas Village for the day. They were easy to communicate with and we felt good about leaving our dog with them.”
“We’re so happy we found Wayne to watch our dog Bentley while we were in the hospital having our twins! Bentley had the best time playing in the huge backyard surrounded by his favourite things: sticks, water, and doggie friends. Wayne clearly showed him so much love, and we appreciated all the photo and video updates. He and Darlene were also incredibly kind and supportive during this special time for our family—their warmth truly meant a lot to us. Truly the best dog sitting experience we’ve ever had. Thank you both so much!”
“Tracy was so friendly, welcoming and so sensitive to our senior blind dog Bella who also suffers from separation anxiety when not with us. Tracy was able to calm her down and feeling secure that she can trust her. Bella did not bark all day like she does at à regular kennel. When we picked her up, Bella was not stressed like she is usually when we pick her up at a kennel. I was so grateful for the genuine care Tracy gave to our Bella. I recommend Tracy's services as I would use hers again anytime. Merci Tracy. Claudette Lamontagne Azilda Ontario”
“Jane is very lovely and kind. Our dog was comfortable right from the start. She kept us up to date on their daily activities with delightful messages and photos. We would highly recommend her and our dog would go back anytime. Thank you, Jane for loving and caring for our dog. Kindest regards.”
“Lisa was amazing with my 2 year old bouvier, Molly. I was sent pictures of her walking, resting, investigating Lisa's home and yard. I would definitely recommend her and will use her again if needed. It was Molly's first time away from family and she had never met Lisa before. I was nervous that Molly might cause problems, but she was very comfortable with Lisa. Thank you for such great care.”
“My dog Beau had an excellent stay with Valerie at her home in Honey Harbour. He was with her for 7 days and I felt very confident with her. She gave me updates throughout his stay to ensure he was doing alright. I will definitely be using her as a sitter again!”
“Tracy & Tim were wonderful! Leo had a fantastic time playing with their family and pup, and he was worn out and ready for a nap when he got home! We got lots of cute pictures and updates, which we always love. Highly recommend and will definitely use them as pet sitters again 😊”
“Andrea was amazing from the start. My boy, Humphrey, was stressed and a little clingy and she handled him beautifully. He was happy and relaxed when I picked him up. Would use again, and will!”
“Ruby had a fantastic stay with Danielle over the weekend; she didn’t even want to leave when we got there to pick her up! Danielle took amazing care of Ruby and instantly made her feel right at home. She gave her lots of attention and affection and lots of photo updates. She truly is the dachshund whisperer! I would definitely recommend her for dogs with separation anxiety. We’re very grateful she was available!”
“Sabine was perfect for my English bulldog. He can be very stubborn and needs lots of attention. From the updates i received and how he acted when i picked him up it seems like he had a great time!”
About: Have had dogs all my life. Just lost our sweet pug at the age of 15. Tended to all of his senior special needs. Have trained several puppies with family pets and missing having a dog to care for. Would love new dogs to spend time with, snuggle and walk! I am at home all day and would love to have a dog to take care of and cherish! I do not work so I’ll be able to give my full attention. We live full time at our cottage and have lots of space for dogs to run and play. Plenty of walking trails nearby for more active dogs.
“Katie, Laura and Denise were fantastic. They took great care of my boys Muffin and Lucifer while I had to be out of my apartment while it was getting fixed. They gave me updates and pictures every day letting me know how they were doing. I definitely recommend them and plan on going back to them next time I’m on a vacation or need to be out of my apartment for an extended period of time. Thank you again ladies for taking good care of my boys”
“Rhiannon and Patrick are exactly what we have been looking for. We have 2 Bouviers that need room to roam and people to love and they have found them. With 100 acres and endless trails Sadie and Koda came home happy and tired😀 We will definitely be booking with Rhiannon again.”
“Danielle provided our 4yo Golden Retriever with a full day of play and exercise. I received many photos and videos throughout her stay and knew she was having the best time with Danielle and her pup. It’s the next day and our dog is still tired!”
“Joan is a great provider of dog care! My dog Romeo definitely felt very at home with Joan and all went well with his boarding at Joan's house. Joan provided lots of pictures and updates and clearly took great care of Romeo during his recent stay. I strongly recommend booking with Joan if you can! She is GREAT!”
“Our pup had SUCH a great time with Dakota. She was excellent at keeping us up to date with progress and pictures. We were so at ease and grateful for the wonderful, loving care she received. Looking forward to her next stay!”
“Susan Y took care of our older pompoo, Eddie, for 2 nights. Eddie didn’t want to leave when I went to pick him up, and he’s got a pretty good home life! My first impression of Susan Y is that she’s friendly, personable and communicative! She will be the first person I call if we need someone to take care of Eddie again! We are definitely done with kennels!”

“This was our first experience using a cat sitter through Rover. We could not have been happier or more reassured that our 2 cats were well cared for in our home. Tracy just knew what we needed and thoughtfully sent us pictures showing “the boys” being very comfortable in her care. One in particular is very cautious with people but Tracy quickly earned his trust and they became friends. Tracy is professional and personable and we really look forward to having her look after our feline family again. Thanks so much, Tracy.”
“I was a little nervous leaving my cat at home while on holiday but Siobhan made the whole experience stress free. From the first meet up to the final day when she dropped off the key, I felt confident Fudge the cat was well looked after. He is 13 yo and on medication, an extremely finicky eater and not especially ‘social’. Each day I got an update with pics or a video. What a relief knowing I didn’t have to worry about him. She’s great, has a warm personality, is reliable and skilled. I have recommended her to friends and would be happy to have her look after Fudge again.”
“Heather was an amazing sitter for our cat while we were away. She kept us up to date with photos and messages every day. She also responded very quickly when I reached out to see how our cat was doing without us around for so long. She even watered our garden, and made sure our cat wasn’t outside too long on the really hot days. I would highly recommend Heather to anyone! Thank you Heather!”

About: I think it is the connection I make with all doggies. I like to make sure they are very happy to be around me and that they have what ever they need. I adjust my actions to look after senior doggies or puppies and all in between. I am retired and my schedule is usually flexible. I am looking to meet new doggies and look after them during the week. I could be available on weekends if needed. We don’t have any pets and have a large rural property. We would discuss the needs of your dog and taylor their needs to make everyone comfortable. We can accommodate off leash and leased dogs.
“Amazing first experience leaving my dog! Siobhan was extremely welcoming and my dog was clearly at ease and had a great day and is also exhausted which is a bonus. She even went so far as to give her a bath. I would highly recommend her.”
“Our dog Rocco had the time of his life hanging out with Lisa and Andrew. He had two back to back day care stays. Returning for day two he leaped from our car and tugged me towards Lisa’s door and couldn’t wait for her to answer the door bell. A very good sign he was looking forward to all the love and play time he had with them. Also great communication and sweet pics! 100 percent —high recommendation.”
“Rhiannon was so lovely with our Bernese, Fred-Franklin! She went above and beyond and dropped him back to us when we were in a pickle with our car, and we could tell he had a great day. Very lovely and communicative. :)”
“Danielle was great.She made both our dogs feel at home and cared for, including our special needs Maizie. A kind woman with very calm energy. I highly recommend her doggy daycare!”
“I do not trust many people with my pup and I feel so comfortable leaving her with Danielle! Not only a warm and inviting home, but personality as well. Mabel always comes home happy and tired. The photos throughout the day are so great to see and always show how much fun and love my girl is getting. I have already used Danielle a second time and would recommend her to anyone !”
“Susan looked after our miniature dachshund Ruby last minute for several hours while my husband and I went to a birthday party, and she did an amazing job making Ruby feel safe and comfortable. Ruby had a great time and she was all smiles and tail wags when we picked her up. Susan has a lovely home and I think Ruby really enjoyed herself there. I would highly recommend her services :)”

About: I have been surrounded by dogs my entire life and have always had a deep love and appreciation for animals. Growing up, I had the joy of caring for Shelties, Golden Retrievers, and Papillons, each teaching me the importance of patience, companionship, and understanding every dog’s unique personality. I currently have a Golden Retriever puppy who is very loved, well-socialized, and has the sweetest, most gentle personality. He is extremely well-behaved and will be starting puppy school in July to continue building his training and manners. My partner is also home and able to help care for him, ensuring every pet receives plenty of attention, supervision, and love. If your pup stays with me, they will be welcomed into a safe, caring, and dog-loving home. I want to be transparent that my puppy may be present during stays, but I always prioritize the comfort and needs of your pet. For walks, your dog will receive one-on-one attention — I will take your pup on their own walk rather than walking multiple dogs together. For drop-ins or visits, my focus will be on giving your pet personalized care, affection, and making sure they feel happy and comfortable while you’re away. Your pet will be treated like family here 🐾 I am a teacher and will be off during the months of July and August, which means I have a very flexible schedule and am available for pet care whenever needed. I have plenty of time to provide walks, drop-in visits, playtime, and companionship throughout the day. Starting in September, my availability will depend on whether I accept a teaching position (LTO), but I will always have availability in the evenings and on weekends. I am committed to providing reliable and consistent care and will communicate clearly with each pet parent to make sure your pet’s needs are met. Creating a safe, comfortable, and loving environment for every pet is my top priority. Whether I am caring for your pet in my home or visiting them in theirs, I focus on making sure they feel secure, happy, and well cared for. In my home, pets are welcomed into a calm, clean, and dog-loving environment where they receive lots of attention, affection, playtime, and supervision. I understand that every dog has their own personality, routine, and needs, and I will always take the time to make sure they feel comfortable. My Golden Retriever puppy may be present in my home, but he is extremely friendly, well-behaved, and continuing his training. When caring for pets in their own home, I respect their space and routines while providing dependable care, companionship, walks, feeding, playtime, and lots of love. I know pets feel most comfortable with familiarity, so I aim to keep their normal schedule and environment as consistent as possible. I will always communicate with pet parents, provide updates, and make sure you feel confident knowing your furry family member is safe and cared for while you’re away. 🐾

About: I have taken care of a wide variety of animals, such as Dogs and cats, rabbits, guinea pigs and hamsters and geckos! Ensuring your pet is healthy and receiving the care they need to have low stress and appropriate exercise is important to me. I work part time, and as a result I have ample availability throughout the week to meet the exercise or care needs of your pet(s). As a dog owner myself I understand the importance of having an exercised and low stress environment is to my pets wellbeing. My goal would be to provide the same care to your animal while in my care. My dog can join on walks or not, as my focus would always be what is best for animal enrichment, temperament and health.
