“I was very happy to know that Mia was in good hands while we had a weekend away. Actually was later than expected and Cynthia was super cool about picking her up whenever I got there. No stress at all. I would recommend them to anyone! Thank you very much!”
“Thank you for watching Milo! Bill was very nice and made Milo and us feel comfortable. He sent pictures to me so I could see Milo was doing good and gave updates by text. When my car broke down unexpectedly he drove Milo back to me. Thank you so much for taking care of him! I would recommend them.”
“Ashley was amazing! She helped us out in a pinch with a very last minute request due to an unexpected situation. She even arranged a meet and greet with us in the limited windows of time we gave her. Our dog had so much fun with her and her family and I’m sure will be super excited for another visit. Thanks again!!”
“Our Zoë is usually a big ball of stress when we have to travel without her but at Mike’s, she’s on her own vacation! Very grateful for Mike and his quality home care with our favourite fur child. 5 stars!”
“This was our first time using Rover and we couldn’t have been luckier than to have found Mariella. Our dogs settled in very quickly and we could tell they were given great care from Mariella and her family.”
“Cindy and Marc took such great care of Batman, who is a nervous dog but they made him feel so welcomed. Cindy shared updates and pictures through the day which we really appreciated. Overall we couldn’t be happier.”
“This was our first time having our boy Ollie, stay with a non-family member/friend, and we truly could not have picked a better sitter to board him with! Britt sent us several updates throughout the weekend which made us feel good and eased our nerves. Ollie seemed to be so comfortable with her and her home. I highly recommend using Britt for any of her services!”
“Shelly and her family have been wonderful. She was very communicative, sending updates and answering messages very quickly. I'm sure Xulgo had a blast with them all and he was very well taken care for. I will book with Shelly again for sure. 🙂”
“Colleen was super easy and professional to communicate with. It was our pups first time with her so the environment was new. That combined with some unexpected fireworks made for some anxious babies. Colleen changed her sleeping arrangements to accommodate them and make them feel safe so everyone could sleep. I was very comfortable and happy that Murph and Eddie stayed with Colleen.”
“So, so grateful for Jayson. He was so patient, kind and attentive to my 5 month old pup during his 4 night stay. He gave me lots of updates on the fun stuff they were doing which really eased my anxiety leaving him for the first time. He took Charlie to numerous parks and on lots of walks and made a model out of him on the many cute photos he sent me. Charlie had a great time with Jayson's on sweet Frenchie, Arnold. I cant reccomend Jayson enough....he's a true dog lover and it shows. 🩷🐾”
“Melissa is amazing. We had a last minute commitment and she was able to accommodate having our dog stay with her. She was reassuring and we never felt worried to leave him with her. She also has a double gate system in her backyard which was an added bonus. Our dog was never left alone while he was there and had a great time playing with her Great Dane and a Lab puppy. She provided updates throughout the night and the next morning so we were always felt in the loop. And she was very quick to reply to our messages. When we went to pick him up he seemed sad to leave! Thanks for the exceptional care Melissa!!”
“Rie and Masahiro did such an amazing job again, watching our pup Ozzie. Ozzie has such a fun time and was well taken care of. I was updated with lots of photos and it looked like they had a blast together. Thank you so much again for taking such good care of Ozzie for us. We will be using Rie and Masahiro again when we need dog sitting!”
“I wish I can give Alison 100 stars. She is the best. She treated my dog as her own, sent pictures everyday & great communication. I was away on vacation & my dog had a hard time with the 1st & 2nd sitter & Alison was able to rescue my dog and welcome her into her home and made me feel st ease. Thank you Alison I definitely recommend anyone to you.”
“Three weeks of amazing care as we vacation in Perth, Australia. Exceptional care and communication with us even with the 13 hour time difference. Thank you from us and Jojo! 💕🐾”
“This is our first booking with Rovers. I was very hesitant leaving our fur baby just with anyone. I must say it was a great relief that Catherine was able to provide a safe caring family environment . Catherine exceeded our expectations and we will use this service again Thanks Bernice”
“I couldn't ask for a better family to look after my dog. They spoiled them every day, took him on daily adventures and sent my family daily video and photos. I have recommended them to my friends and family. If there was a hire than a five staring, I would give it to them.”
“Gail is amazing! My 2.5-year-old husky came back happy, well cared for, and completely tired out after his stay. It was clear that her entire family helped take care of him, not just Gail, which made me feel even more comfortable leaving him there. She provided regular photo updates and communicated very well throughout the stay. I would 100% recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable dog sitter.”
“My first time booking on Rover. We used to leave Kori at a boarding place. This is the first time we were leaving for a week so I thought I’d try Rover. Lynn is the best! She gave regular updates and made sure Kori had enough playtime. She gave Kori room to adjust to a new environment which I really appreciate. Kori seemed like she enjoyed her stay and Lynn told me they played lots of hide and seek (lol!!!), but I can also tell she’s happy to be back home. Glad I found Lynn on Rover - definitely recommend her and would leave Kori with her again if needed (how I wish I could take Kori always but she seems too big to be under the seat in a plane cabin…).😊”
“Michelle is a lovely host. Our 5 year old retriever ran right into her house upon our arrival and first meeting and fit right in from there. Balto took a few last pets from Michelle on pickup and seemed almost reluctant to leave. Anyone looking for a warm loving environment for their animal should not hesitate to trust Michelle and her family to look after your cherished pet.”

“Sherry was an excellent person to have as first time rover users. She was quickly responsive, detailed with her check ins and our kitty warmed up to her on day one. You know its a good person when your pets are comfortable with them! 100 percent will book again in the future!”
“Brandon is a fantastic communicator and he took excellent care of my very shy cat brothers. They were calm and settled when I returned home. I will definitely use Brandon going forward for my cat sitting needs.”
“This was my first experience using a sitter for Khalie. It was very easy to do and the reviews and profiles on Rover were very helpful in choosing a sitter. My choice was Kristina. She is a lovely person to deal with and very caring and thorough in her job. Went beyond what I expected and provided me with detail feedback and photos daily, not only about my cat, but also general observations about my home. Kristina was not afraid to immediately contact me when needed. Upon my return, I noted that Khalie was her old self. She immediately came from her resting place to greet us and was happy and energetic. I would not hesitate to recommend Kristina for your next sitter.”
“Cassidy was an excellent choice and provided peace of mind while we were away. She provided drop in visits for our two cats and took great care of them. Great communication throughout and plenty of photo updates for us while we were away. We'd recommend Cassidy and will surely hire her in the future!”
“Robin was absolutely fantastic! This was my first time leaving Casey alone, and she kept me informed with daily photos and detailed updates. She ensured Casey had food, scooped the litter box daily, and added some play time. I highly recommend Robin and will definitely be booking again!”
About: I’ve been around animals all my life! My best friend growing up was ace sum is my Boston terrier/French bulldog mix! He is now 16 and has given me some senior care skills! I have been watching and taking care of dogs for neighbours and friends ever since I was 14! Just recently trained my partners golden retriever red fox lab puppy! Love teaching dogs new tricks, playing fetch or cuddling up to watch a movie! Whatever best suits your pup:) I am a flight attendant! My schedule is kind of all over the place but want to spend my days off with your furry friend! My schedule Varys month to month but can be flexible! I will take your furry friend on walks! Play fetch in your yard (if fenced) play indoors whatever I can do to get them active!
“Sarah takes great care of my senior cat, ensuring he has his insulin as needed and is kept company! He’s always happy to see her, and she follows instructions and has great communication. I’ll continue booking with Sarah!”
“Andrea has looked after our boys several times now and every time we know they are in the best hands! She always updates us and sends us lots of photos which we appreciate so much! Will absolutely be coming back to her when we travel again!”
“Colleen came to feed our two cats, one of which is a rescue and is very timid. Both cats came out to see her when she arrived which is amazing! We were very happy with Colleen’s service and would recommend her. Very reliable, polite and professional!”
“Michelle was wonderful and helped make our 10 days away much easier. Great feedback about how our cat was truly doing with pictures which were lovely to see. Michelle was reliable, conscientious and friendly towards our timid boy. Happy to hear they became friends :)”
About: I have taken care of a variety of pets my whole life as well as taking care of others. I have owned two dogs, 2 hamsters, a rabbit and many fish. I am very personable with each pet and make sure they are fully taken care of. In my experience I have walked, house sat and fed dogs based on their own needs and administer medicine . I am currently only working part time and am seeking a second job to create more income. I am very flexible and would love to help! I can easily take care of any animal depending on their needs. I am very comfortable with any behaviour, or anything they may need! :)
“Meg was an excellent sitter! She was able to give my reluctant cat his necessary medicine 3 times daily. It gave me peace of mind to know Meg was watching my cat. She kept me updated on his activities promptly. I can't say enough good things about Meg. I will definitely ask Meg to watch my cat again. Thank you Meg for your diligence and patience with Smudge.”
About: Hi, my name is Daniela, and I’ve recently moved to Brantford. I grew up with both dogs and cats and have always had a deep love for animals. I regularly care for my mom’s sweet dog, Pippa, whenever she travels, and I’m also a proud cat mom to two cats. I truly enjoy walking dogs and spending time with furry friends, whether it’s out on a walk or socializing at the park. Caring for animals brings me so much joy, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. I am working from home and have a flexible schedule till the spring. Where work picks up and I’ll be more available in the afternoon and early morning. I treat every pet like family, offering love, attention, walks, playtime, and comfort. Their safety and happiness are my top priorities while you’re away, I make sure every moment is full of love, fun, and wagging tails!
“My first time using Paula through Rover and it was a great experience! My cats seemed to take to Paula right away and I love the photo updates. I felt they were in safe, caring hands and was never worried about them. I plan to use Rover and Paula again in the future. Thanks Paula, Mike Cormier”
“Elaina was kind enough to come meet us and our kitties before our vacation. It was obvious she’s very comfortable around pets and the kitties warmed up to her right away. She knew what questions to ask to ensure she could meet our needs, showing she has enough experience to provide quality service. She took great care of our home and our two cat babies. We appreciated the many photo and video updates while we were away. We enjoyed our vacation knowing everything was in good hands and came back to two very happy kitties and a clean home. We would definitely hire Elaina again ?”
About: I've always loved animals and have had many dogs, some cats and small animals in my life. I treated them all like the king and queens that they deserve to be and would treat yours the same. I like to sleep with animals in my bed and spoil them as much as you will allow me- if you have specific rules for your animal I will follow them. I want the pets to feel completely comfortable and for you to know that they are in good hands when you have to go away. I try to keep my dogs mentally active as well as physically active and I would hope to do the same for your pets. I babysat my neighbours cats for 20 years while they went away for weeks at a time. The cats loved me. I always make as much time for my pets or the pets I’m caring for. When you hire me, I will be devoting and doting on your animal. I’ve had rescue dogs all my life. They are either unfriendly with people or other animals. I’ve never had one of my dogs attack before. I’m always cautious on walks and in my surroundings. I always keep my dogs leashed for their safety and comfort.
About: Hi! I’m Laura, and I’ve been caring for dogs and cats for well over 10 years. I’ve cared for my own pets as well as family, friends’, and neighbours’ animals, and I’ve had experience with a wide variety of dog breeds and personalities, including small breeds, large guardian breeds and high-energy herding breeds. I'm the type to occasionally and very casually (and safely) cross the street to ask if I can pet your dog. I’m responsible, active, and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. I’d love to help keep your pets happy and comfortable at home, out on a walk, or just by checking in. I look forward to meeting you and your pets! I’m a mature student in a hybrid program, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to spend a lot of time with the pets in my care. I’m happy to follow your routines and instructions closely, and I understand that caring for your home is part of the responsibility too. I’ll treat your space with the same care and respect I give your animals. House sitting is my favourite way to care for pets because I know how much easier it can be for them to stay in their own home and follow their usual routine while their people are away. I’m attentive to each pet’s individual needs, whether that means an energetic walk, plenty of fetch or playtime, a quiet companion for a shy cat, or simply keeping an older dog comfortable and settled.

“Cooper had such a great time with Alison! He was a very tired pup when he got home! She provided updates throughout the day and was very responsive to any questions. We will definitely be using her again when we need a dog sitter! ?”
“Cindy and Marc were amazing with Arizona! They kept us updated throughout the day, always very communicative, which made us feel completely at ease. We could tell Arizona was well cared for and happy. Highly recommend!”

“Bill & Tracy took care of my 10 month old Cockapoo Charlie. They gave updates on what he was doing. He was wiped when I picked him up. I will be using your services again!”
“Valerie is amazing! There are tail wags from the moment we pull in the driveway! Maggie has been extremely happy with the excellent care she is given. We highly recommend :)”
“Ashley has been an amazing help! Several times she has been available for a last minute booking which has really helped us out. Our dog gets very excited as soon as we pull up to her street and comes home so tired, we get a bonus relaxing evening off as he doesn’t ask for his typical “after dinner” walk. Thanks so much, looking forward to Ben’s next stay!”
“Andrea was all around fantastic. She was able to look after my 4 month old puppy when we needed someone last minute and we are so glad she did! Remy had the BEST day. She made a new friend, spent a great amount of time playing outside and going for walks and even enjoyed a few special snacks and cuddles! Andrea was so easy to speak with and provided photos and updates throughout the day. Remy loved her! We will 100% use Andrea’s services again in the future when needed! ?”
“Mike was incredibly accommodating and accepted my last minute request for dogsitting. He was patient and kind with my greyhound who gets very nervous in new situations. I received frequent updates from Mike throughout my dog's stay, which helped put my mind at ease, especially since it was my dog's first time in a house with other dogs. He is a terrific sitter and I would happily book him again. Highly recommend!”
“I honestly can’t recommend Praneet enough. Before meeting him, I had never left Crypto with anyone in the year and a half I’ve had him. Like many dog parents, I have separation anxiety too, so trusting someone with him was a huge step for me. From our very first phone call, Praneet made me feel comfortable and confident. Instead of simply accepting the booking, he suggested a meet-and-greet first. We met at a dog park where Crypto was surrounded by other dogs, and Praneet spent about an hour with us. During that time, he not only got to know Crypto but also taught me so much about dog behaviour and body language. I learned a lot from that one meeting, and it gave me complete confidence in his knowledge and experience. After our meet-and-greet, I booked Crypto for three days of daycare. I honestly started noticing a positive change in his walks within just a day or two. Seeing that progress made me decide to hire Praneet as Crypto’s trainer as well. Crypto is going in for surgery soon, so we’ll be starting our training sessions once he’s fully recovered. The biggest sign for me is how much Crypto loves going there. Every time I tell him we’re going to see Praneet, he gets excited. When I pick him up, he’s always happy, relaxed, and never stressed or panicked. In fact, he even whines when it’s time to leave Praneet! I have to admit, I was a little jealous—but it’s also the best reassurance a dog parent can ask for. Throughout the day, Praneet kept me updated with messages, photos, and videos whenever I asked. He wasn’t just taking care of Crypto—he was also helping me overcome my own separation anxiety. Thank you, Praneet, for taking such amazing care of Crypto. It’s rare to find someone who genuinely cares about dogs the way you do. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend you to anyone looking for a trustworthy, knowledgeable, and caring sitter or trainer. You are truly the best .. I can’t thank you enough. Crypto and I are both lucky to have found you—even if I’m still a little jealous that he doesn’t want to leave you! 😄”
“Shelly and her family were phenomenal dog sitters! So warm and inviting from the initial meeting and so attentive to our puppy’s needs. We have a very high energy, high needs 7 month old border collie lab mix (💀) and the pictures she sent us of him on a walk floored us because we rarely see him looking so peaceful. Would highly recommend Shelly to anyone looking for a trusted and experienced dog sitter.”
“Catherine is amazing!!! Our little guy Junior was comfortable the minute he arrived. He had a fantastic time and Catherine sent many photos through the day. Junior loved the yard and exploring the gardens. We highly recommend Catherine and trust her completely with the care of Junior.”
“I am so lucky that I found Jayson. Our dog is usually shy at first, but she clicked with Jayson. He is kind, caring and I feel so relieved when she is with him for doggy daycare. Jayson responds very quickly and communicates very clearly. His dog, Arnold has made our girl feel comfortable, which is amazing, as she can be apprehensive at times. Jayson will provide lots of photos during the day and keeps me updated on her walks (or hangouts in the backyard when it is too hot). His photos are always accompanied by a text, telling me how she is doing, how her walk was, when she had dinner, etc. I love that Jayson always gives off a calm and happy demeanor, because it not only makes our dog comfortable, but I do not worry at all about her while she is there. If you are looking for someone who provides a fun and calm space, a very chill doggy companion, and lots of care, I 100% recommend Jayson as your pet sitter/walker.”
“Henry had a great first stay with Britt and was definitely tired when we brought him home after playing all day. Good updates throughout the stay and felt very comfortable leaving our little guy in her hands”
“We had such a wonderful experience with Edward! He took excellent care of Kim and treated him like family. We loved getting the updates and photos, which gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. Highly recommended!”
“Seema was absolutely wonderful with Majnu. She was incredibly kind, patient, and genuinely understood his needs, which meant a lot to me. She gave me regular updates that kept me at ease and took such thoughtful care of him throughout. I could tell Majnu was comfortable and happy with her. I would 100% recommend Seema to anyone looking for a trustworthy, loving pet sitter, and I wouldn’t hesitate to leave Majnu with her again.”
“This was my first time leaving my fur baby with someone who I didn’t know, and Michelle made the experience very easy. We trialed half a day with daycare in Michelle’s home and my gal came home happy and pooped. Michelle was highly responsive throughout the process, and as soon as I met her, I knew my gal was in great hands. I would definitely recommend Michelle and hope to use her services again soon.”
“Our first choice for our pup whenever we are in the area. Dalia and her husband are both wonderful and have shown so much love and care for our dog Nova. Thank you so much!”
“I took Lucy for a meet and greet the day before. Lucy could hardly wait to get in Brittany’s door the next morning. She had a lovely day with Brittany, a completely reliable dog sitter.”

“Kristina was awesome to work with! She took our pup on long walks and sent loads of pictures. She communicated with us very quickly and sent updates on how he was doing. We felt he was well looked after in our absence. Thanks so much, Kristina!”
“We’re very happy with Juliet! We have two dogs with very different needs. Our 5-year-old struggles with anxiety, while our 11-year-old is slowing down with age. Juliet tailors her approach to make sure they're both comfortable, happy, and well cared for. We have complete peace of mind knowing they're in such capable and compassionate hands. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, patient, and caring dog walker!”
“Andrew did such a wonderful job walking our dog!! It was clear from the many photos we received that he and Frankie were always having a great time :) I would strongly recommend Andrew to anyone who needs someone to take good care of their pets, and I will continue using his services as long as I live here!”
About: Being a dog owner myself, I understand the importance of finding a dog sitter who genuinely cares and willing to give the attention your dog needs. I have a 4 yr old goldendoodle, Maui who would love some company 💕 he loves meeting new dogs and making friends. I am home throughout the week so rest assured, your dog will get all the attention and love they need and more ✨ There will be lots of play, walks and cuddles. 😌 Available for boarding, doggy day care, dog walks and drop-in visits. I am self employed and full time taking care of my dog so I am with my dog throughout the day. Your dog is no different to me 💕 when your dog is home, he/she will have a best friend (my dog) and me, who will take care of them and enjoy all the extra cuddles. I give food according to your schedule set, give 2 walks everyday and lots of play/activities/puzzles during the day. Rest assured, your dog will come back home tired after a long day of play 😌 I currently do not have a fenced yard but I’m always extremely careful and leash our dog for pee breaks/potty breaks when I take them to the yard. I have never had any incidents of dogs getting away because that’s how cautious I am. So safety is always my priority.
“This was our first time using Andrea as our dog walker. I can't thank Andrea enough for her incredible kindness and compassion towards our newly rescue poodle . Even though we hadn't officially started using her services, she went out of her way to come and meet our dog , providing comfort and reassurance as she is afraid of everyone. Her genuine care and willingness to help speak volumes about her character and dedication to animals. Throughout her walks, she consistently went above and beyond, ensuring my dog received the full 30 minutes and more of exercise and attention. Her regular updates and pictures provided me with peace of mind and a glimpse into their enjoyable time together. Andrea made sure our poodle had fresh water after every walk and left her with few treats. Andrea truly exceeded my expectations, and I wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone seeking a trustworthy and compassionate dog walker.”
About: I grew up on a hobby farm with sheep, goats, horses, cats and Siberian Huskies. I have had cats all my life and I have a 3 year old miniature wiener dog named Dottie. My yard is fully fenced. Pets are family and I look forward to caring for yours. I’m off evenings and weekends but work during the week. I still am able to pet sit during the week by providing walks in the morning, around noon hour then again in the evenings. My yard is fully fenced and home is baby gated so that pets don’t have full roam of the home or stairs. I have no children and my dog is friendly with other dogs and is fixed and fully vaccinated.

“Meg was a wonderful dog walker for my dog Farley. He is usually quite shy with strangers, but he was quite comfortable with her. Meg is very reliable and punctual and I appreciated her daily updates on their walks. I would highly recommend Meg for anyone looking for a responsible, reliable, and loving dog walker.”
“Thanks so much for being able to walk the girls with such a short notice. It’s wonderful to have reliable people in our neighborhood. Not only do I walk their dog Cooper on Rover but now they also are providers. They sent great photos and it’s clear our dogs enjoyed their time with David and Jenna.”
“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!!!”

“I was very happy to know that Mia was in good hands while we had a weekend away. Actually was later than expected and Cynthia was super cool about picking her up whenever I got there. No stress at all. I would recommend them to anyone! Thank you very much!”
“Ashley was amazing! She helped us out in a pinch with a very last minute request due to an unexpected situation. She even arranged a meet and greet with us in the limited windows of time we gave her. Our dog had so much fun with her and her family and I’m sure will be super excited for another visit. Thanks again!!”
“Our Zoë is usually a big ball of stress when we have to travel without her but at Mike’s, she’s on her own vacation! Very grateful for Mike and his quality home care with our favourite fur child. 5 stars!”
“This was our first time having our boy Ollie, stay with a non-family member/friend, and we truly could not have picked a better sitter to board him with! Britt sent us several updates throughout the weekend which made us feel good and eased our nerves. Ollie seemed to be so comfortable with her and her home. I highly recommend using Britt for any of her services!”
“Shelly and her family have been wonderful. She was very communicative, sending updates and answering messages very quickly. I'm sure Xulgo had a blast with them all and he was very well taken care for. I will book with Shelly again for sure. 🙂”
“Melissa is amazing. We had a last minute commitment and she was able to accommodate having our dog stay with her. She was reassuring and we never felt worried to leave him with her. She also has a double gate system in her backyard which was an added bonus. Our dog was never left alone while he was there and had a great time playing with her Great Dane and a Lab puppy. She provided updates throughout the night and the next morning so we were always felt in the loop. And she was very quick to reply to our messages. When we went to pick him up he seemed sad to leave! Thanks for the exceptional care Melissa!!”
“Rie and Masahiro did such an amazing job again, watching our pup Ozzie. Ozzie has such a fun time and was well taken care of. I was updated with lots of photos and it looked like they had a blast together. Thank you so much again for taking such good care of Ozzie for us. We will be using Rie and Masahiro again when we need dog sitting!”
“I wish I can give Alison 100 stars. She is the best. She treated my dog as her own, sent pictures everyday & great communication. I was away on vacation & my dog had a hard time with the 1st & 2nd sitter & Alison was able to rescue my dog and welcome her into her home and made me feel st ease. Thank you Alison I definitely recommend anyone to you.”
“Three weeks of amazing care as we vacation in Perth, Australia. Exceptional care and communication with us even with the 13 hour time difference. Thank you from us and Jojo! 💕🐾”
“Gail is amazing! My 2.5-year-old husky came back happy, well cared for, and completely tired out after his stay. It was clear that her entire family helped take care of him, not just Gail, which made me feel even more comfortable leaving him there. She provided regular photo updates and communicated very well throughout the stay. I would 100% recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable dog sitter.”
“Michelle is a lovely host. Our 5 year old retriever ran right into her house upon our arrival and first meeting and fit right in from there. Balto took a few last pets from Michelle on pickup and seemed almost reluctant to leave. Anyone looking for a warm loving environment for their animal should not hesitate to trust Michelle and her family to look after your cherished pet.”
“Amanda and Bryan are amazing! My boxer is a little timing, needing extra love and care and Amanda and her family were so great with him. They treated him like their own, so much so that he was so sad coming home. I would absolutely recommend them and wouldn't hesitate to board with them in the future!”
“We always know Remy is in great hands when staying with Catharine and her family. They spoil her with lots of cuddles and attention. Getting the photos and updates daily really made our days as we missed our girl and loved seeing how happy she was.”
“Stop your search now! You have found the perfect person to take care of your fur baby! Our German Shepherd Arlo spent his first weekend with Stefanie, and it was great! Stefanie is awesome, and so accommodating. You can so tell she loves what she does! Thank you for such a wonderful experience. We have a tired but happy dog. :)”
“Adriana did a wonderful job looking after my fur baby Finn, she sent updates and pictures regulary, and was always quick with her responses. It left me feeling relaxed while on my holidays, Finn went for hikes and to the big of leash dog park, rain or shine. Her dog Mollie and Finn got along wonderfully. I would deffinalty use her again. Thank you Adriana!!”
“Deborah-Lynn was professional and positive in all of her communication before and during her time with our dogs. I was impressed with her timely video and pictures shared with us of our dogs interacting with other dogs in her care. Her assessment of both of our dogs was spot on and she handled their needs perfectly. I highly recommend her as a sitter and will continue to book with her.”
“Lynn was great with Coco. She walked couple regularly and gave us several updates on how she was doing and sent us some pictures. Thank you so much Lynn. We will book you again!”
“Can’t Thank her enough for her gentle care and warmth with my buddy, Berny…!!! She took utmost care of him whilst I was away for urgent trip, timely notifications and updates, which were perfect to see him enjoying…. THANK YOU AGAIN…!!”
“Our Kobi, a Bichon Friese/poodle mix dog enjoyed staying with Bob and Skip for one week. They were very caring and extremely sensitive to all his needs. He can be finicky when it comes to his meals and with trial and error he ate very well. Kobi had a limp and Bob carried him down the few stairs that led outside. His stay was positive in every way. Highly recommend Bob and Skip. My husband and I thank you both from the bottom of our hearts.”
