“My dogs loved being at Cynthia's and David for 5 days! They ran outdoor leash free in their fully fenced acres. This is the longest we had ever left them and Cynthia send us pictures daily of the fun they were having. Thank you!!!”
“Very communicative before and during the stay. My skittish dog who doesn't like anyone, especially men, warmed up to Manuel in record time. Very patient and gentle with the dogs.”
“Chetan was an amazing sitter for Wilson over the weekend! He went above and beyond, not only did he give Wilson a bath, but he also happily extended for an extra day on my last-minute request. His communication was excellent throughout: very responsive, sent me lots of pictures, and kept me updated so I had peace of mind. He was also very accommodating with any requests I had, which made the whole experience even smoother. Wilson came home happy, clean, and clearly well cared for. I would highly recommend Chetan to anyone looking for a reliable, caring sitter, and I’ll definitely be booking with him again!”
“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.”

“Sreeparvathi and Vysakh were truly exceptional caregivers for our Goldendoodle during our 10-day trip. From our initial meet-and-greet to the day we picked him up, they were warm, welcoming, and professional. Their genuine hospitality and dedication to our dog’s well being were evident from the start. They went above and beyond to ensure he felt comfortable and safe, providing consistent love, attention, and care. He was fed on schedule, enjoyed plenty of playtime and walks, and had a wonderful time exploring their spacious backyard. They kept him well groomed and tidy throughout his stay. We especially appreciated the daily updates, complete with photos and messages, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. It was clear our dog was happy and thriving under their care. We are deeply grateful for the kindness, reliability, and one-on-one attention Sreeparvathi and Vysakh provided. We wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone seeking a loving, trustworthy dog sitter and we will absolutely book with them again.”
“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.”
“Catherine and her husband Natz were awesome pet sitters. Lots of pictures during Reba ‘s weekend stay. They welcomed Reba like their own pet. Such wonderful people! I will use again for sure if I travel to Brantford area and need a pet sitter again. If you are looking for a great pet sitter, contact Catherine. ❤️?”

Dogs can enjoy the whole house with me if they are friendly with my cat, and enjoy plenty of space in my large fenced backyard.
“Our first every Rover boarding went exceptionally well! I cannot say enough about Dalia and Dan and the care, consideration, and love that goes into what they offer. From the first meet and greet, to drop off, pictures and videos, and final pick up was all a smooth process - for both me and the dog. We definitely will use Dalia and Dan again as needed for our trips when our dog cannot go. We had not problems at all leaving our dog in their care. He got love, attention, walks, and a home that was very similar to what we already offer - laid back. We don't get away often, but now we know we have that back up for someone to look after our other member of the family.”
“We had a great experience with Jessica. I felt totally comfortable leaving Wendel with her and Terrence for the weekend. Wendel had a great time and loved playing with her pups. She was easy to communicate with and flexible to accomodate changes with short notice. I highly recommend her services and will be using her in the future next time we are going away!”
“Mike demonstrated great care and genuine interest in our dog Lego during his care for her. He was concerned when she wasn't eating properly and was having trouble going down steps. His communication was great. He provided texts and pics of Lego daily which were great to see.”

About: I love any chance to tell this story. I had wanted a cat since the moment I was able to talk. There was nothing softer, or sweeter than a cat. With my mom's allergies, we had never been able to get one, until my sweet Mango came along. In the winter of 2016, I was driving along and noticed her in the middle of the road. She had been hit by a car, and we brought her to the vet immediately. With no chip, and weeks worth of Facebook ads and posters, no one ever came to claim her. At this point, I asked if I could take her home. She has been my baby since; my very first cat. She healed well and ended up a chunky and playful girl. A few years after, I had settled into a new place and decided it was time for another. This brought me Jolene, the little but lonnng black kitten. She was brought to me through an SPCA program, and has been my sweet but shy little black bean since fall of 2018. Cats have and always will be my favourite animal, and I am honoured to meet as many of them in this lifetime as I can.
About: I’ve had a dog since I was a child. I was always the one walking, cleaning and caring for them. I love animals so much I went to school to become Wildlife technician.

I can administer meds, including needles and will keep track for your records. I’m not afraid to get messy when dogs need a bath. 🛁

Out kitty loved having Andrea stop in and we really appreciated having the updates and pictures from each visit! We will definitely book with Andrea again in the future!”
About: As a pet parent in my own home, I’ve had the privilege of caring for a unique group of beloved dogs and cats.

About: Cats are my specialty! For over 20 years I have cared for all stages, from kitten to end of life care.

Some people say cats can't be trained, but I disagree.
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!
About: Your pet’s comfort and safety come first with me. I provide attentive, personalized care that keeps your pet happy, relaxed, and well-exercised while you’re away. Whether it’s long walks, playtime, or quiet companionship, I adapt to your pet’s routine and personality so they feel right at home. I work from home and spend lots of time home, available for your dog to get out for regular potty breaks, to snuggle or go for walks, as needed.

About: Cats have been a part of my life since my teenage years. My very first cat was a beautiful female Siberian Forest Cat. Her name was Conga. I have experience administering oral medication if needed as I've had to do this many times for my own pets over the years. I spent two and a half years working on a farm ( as a bookkeeper) where I had daily interactions with feral cats and often cleaned their wounds or treated minor eye issues. I am friendly and inviting around cats but respect the individuality of each one. Some like cuddles, others do not, they will let me know their comfort level. Some are skittish, others are very social. It is important to me that they feel safe. When I do drop-in visits with your cat, I give them time for pets and cuddles, playtime with a toy they can chase, and I brush their fur ( if they are comfortable with it). I always like to send you videos/pictures of our time together. I also clean up after your pet (of course!). If there is anything else you need while you are away, I am willing to help. Example: bringing in your mail, taking out the garbage/recycling or watering your plants....

About: Since I was born, my family has owned dogs. Growing up, I had two big dogs, a Husky, Collie mix names Fisher and German Shephard, Rottweiler mix named Sam. Our next pup was a mutt named Bolt that we had rescued from the Highway up in Northern Muskoka. She was a small dog with a Boxer, Pug and Terrier mix. It wasn't until 2016 when I saved my first cat from being hit by a car, Mango, that I was fully taking care of my onw pet. To date, we now have a Husky Australian Shephard puppy named Luna, and Mango and another little black kitty named Jolene. I also live with a Rottweiler Lab mix named Poppy, who is such a sweetie, and a crazy ginger kitten named Hippo. I am well versed in dog and cat handling, and will take extra care and time with your pets. There is no limit to the amount of love they will receive while in my care!

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.

About: I’m good with dogs of all sizes and ages and enjoy meeting new dog friends. I have a very flexible schedule, communicate well and love spending time both inside and out with dogs.

“We had Keyla walk our two dogs while we were away and our house sitter couldn’t. The dogs LOVED her and were so happy when she came to get them! She went above and beyond to take excellent care of our girls when we were away. Overall, we were very happy with our experience.”

“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: Hi there! Our names are Jessica & Terence. We moved to Brantford with our 6 year old Nova Scotia Duck Tolling Retriever, Bullet in 2021 and have added little Ruby, a 2 year old Golden Retriever to our family. We love living here and have been taking full advantage of being outside on our city’s beautiful trails, river and green space. Our schedules are flexible and are looking to take on dog walking & boarding clients. Let's meet up before our first walk to make sure it's a match. We’re really looking forward to meeting both you and your furry friend and how we can tailor our services to best suit your needs. You are welcome to ask us any questions you may have. It fits in great! We are completely flexible with our schedules and are always on the go with both our dogs. Your dog will become part of our pack and will be incorporated into regular training / exercise schedule. We can care for your dog (s) in our home, provide drop in visits for puppies, go on pack walks, or provide care in your home. The choice is up to you, we can work around your schedule and needs.
About: I have had pets my entire life and cannot remember a time without animals. I grew up with cats and they have always been part of my life. During my teen and university years, my family also had a diabetic West Highland Terrier, and I was closely involved in his daily care. I have extensive experience caring for pets with medical needs. Our dog was diabetic, and I was responsible for administering insulin. Over the years, I have also cared for two diabetic cats, giving insulin injections and managing their routines. I am comfortable giving medication or drops to cooperative pets and understand the importance of consistency, calmness, and trust when providing medical care. I regularly care for cats and dogs for family and friends when they are away, providing drop in visits, dog walks, feeding, litter box maintenance, and medication as needed. I currently have two cats of my own and often cat sit my “grandcat,” so caring for multiple cats and maintaining routines is very familiar to me. I am comfortable with both cats and dogs of all ages and enjoy providing calm, nurturing care. For safety and wellbeing, I do not take on pets with aggressive behaviours. Pet care fits easily into my routine. I own my own business and have a flexible schedule, which allows me to visit pets, take them for walks, play with them, and spend relaxed time with them throughout the day. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on maintaining their normal routine so they feel comfortable and secure. During drop in visits, I make sure pets are fed on schedule, fresh water is provided, litter boxes are cleaned as needed, and any medications are given according to instructions. I spend quality time with each pet during visits, whether that means playtime, gentle companionship, or simply sitting with them if they prefer a calmer presence. For dogs, I provide safe, attentive walks suited to their energy level and comfort, followed by time to relax and settle back at home. I am respectful of each client’s home and follow all care instructions closely. My goal is for pets to feel calm, cared for, and well attended while their owners are away.
About: I love doing anything I can to enrich their lives of pets. I strongly believe in the use of distraction treats, or toys. These allow for their mind to stimulate, as well as their body. If allowed, I would love to do this for your pet!! I am in school full time, but any time I can help an animal out I will!! My services aren’t super long, but my lasting impact is! I care for pets in a clients home, the same way I would care for it in mine. Any pet under my care, would be treated the exact same as my own!

“My dogs loved being at Cynthia's and David for 5 days! They ran outdoor leash free in their fully fenced acres. This is the longest we had ever left them and Cynthia send us pictures daily of the fun they were having. Thank you!!!”
“Very communicative before and during the stay. My skittish dog who doesn't like anyone, especially men, warmed up to Manuel in record time. Very patient and gentle with the dogs.”
“I wish I can give Alison 100 stars. She is the best. She treated my dog as her own, sent pictures everyday & great communication.

Thank you Alison I definitely recommend anyone to you.”

“We booked Molly for an 8-day stay with Britt while we were away on a cruise. She kept us updated all during the trip with photos and texts so we knew how Molly was doing which was a comfort to us. She provided excellent care for Molly. Molly loved all the walks and spending time with Mona. We would definitely recommend Britt for caring for your pet.”

About: I’ve lived with pets my entire life, and have seen all kinds of personalities and needs. I’m always attentive of individual pet needs and treat them like my own. I work full time 8-4 and currently often go away on weekends from Friday-Sunday. Otherwise I’m home the whole time after work to give lots of attention. I can also go home during lunch if ever needed. I’ve recently moved into a new home and have an empty basement at the moment which won’t be furnished for a few more months. Your cat can have their own very large space there with a bedroom included for them. Dogs can enjoy the whole house with me if they are friendly with my cat, and enjoy plenty of space in my large fenced backyard.
“Our first every Rover boarding went exceptionally well! I cannot say enough about Dalia and Dan and the care, consideration, and love that goes into what they offer. From the first meet and greet, to drop off, pictures and videos, and final pick up was all a smooth process - for both me and the dog. We definitely will use Dalia and Dan again as needed for our trips when our dog cannot go. We had not problems at all leaving our dog in their care. He got love, attention, walks, and a home that was very similar to what we already offer - laid back. We don't get away often, but now we know we have that back up for someone to look after our other member of the family.”
“We had a great experience with Jessica. I felt totally comfortable leaving Wendel with her and Terrence for the weekend. Wendel had a great time and loved playing with her pups. She was easy to communicate with and flexible to accomodate changes with short notice. I highly recommend her services and will be using her in the future next time we are going away!”
“Mike demonstrated great care and genuine interest in our dog Lego during his care for her. He was concerned when she wasn't eating properly and was having trouble going down steps. His communication was great. He provided texts and pics of Lego daily which were great to see.”
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.
“Amanda is amazing! She goes above and beyond to make my dog Odessa feel comfortable and happy when I am away. Amanda is very accommodating and provides great communication via texts and picture updates. I highly recommend her and she’ll remain on the top of my list when I’m in need of help! 💕”
“I left my seven month old golden retriever puppy with Mathieu and Esther (and Marlow!) over the weekend. They took excellent care of her! Puppies are a handful, and they went over and above. My dog got special instructions after being spayed, and they were super accommodating. I highly recommend them!”
About: I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life, so being around them just feels natural to me. I have a 16-month-old Labrador who is honestly the light of my life, and caring for him has taught me so much about patience, consistency, and unconditional love. I know how important routines, exercise, playtime, and lots of affection are. When I look after someone’s dog, I treat them like they’re my own — with genuine care, attention, and plenty of cuddles. I work from home and am always available to take great care of the dogs and will treat them like they're my own with genuine care. There’s always plenty of supervised playtime, attention, and affection, and I never leave dogs unattended for long periods. I make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away, and I’m happy to provide regular updates for peace of mind.
“We highly recommend Courtney and Kevin!! Our Lily stayed with them for 11 days including Christmas and was so well taken care of! They sent plenty of photos and videos and we could tell she felt safe, comfortable and right at home!”
