“Kimberley watched my little Frances for the weekend and took such great care of her! She was considerate, provided lots of updates and I felt very much at ease that Fran was in good hands. I would recommend Kimberley as a sitter!!”
“Nicole and Eddie went above and beyond for our dog Teddy. They took great care of him and made sure we had lots of photos and videos. Looking forward to the next time Teddy gets to stay!”
“Another wonderful stay!! I can tell from the pictures she was spoiled rotten, and even had a swimming lesson. Looking forward to another few days later in the month.”
“Kristin and Justin are awesome. They have looked after our girl Frankie twice. Both times she was spoiled and well socialized. She comes back to us a better dog. Thanks again and see you next time.”
“Shannon took great care of our dog. She kept us informed throughout the weekend and sent lots of great pictures. Riley came home happy and tired out. We would love to use Shannon's services again.”
“Johanna is a kind and incredibly reliable dog watcher who truly treats pets like family. Cosmo needs a bit of time to trust new people, and she gave him the space, calm energy & gentle reassurance he needed. We felt completely at ease knowing she respected his personality, made him feel safe and comfortable. He was relaxed, well‑fed and happy when we picked him up. We are very grateful and will happily book with her again.”
“Jennifer provided excellent care to my (nervous 17 yr old) dog Rosie. She was so kind and gave daily updates and photos. I was able to enjoy my time away without worrying. I highly recommend Jennifer and I will definitely book with her again”
“Leaving our 9 year old dog Lily with Christina for 7 days was an excellent experience. Christina was welcoming, accommodating, and kept us informed of Lily’s wellbeing. We rarely need to leave her with someone besides family but would definitely go back to Christina again. Lily came home happy and healthy! With many thanks!”
About: I’ve had tons of different animals growing up. Recently had to euthanize my 15 year old family boarder collie. Also an English bull dog who passed away at two due to breathing issues. I miss having a dog around, however am not ready to adopt my own just yet. Would love to have them over here and there. I Absolutely adore dogs! I currently work from home so I am always here to take care and love your animal! Will walk, feed, cuddle them and if permitted, take them where me and my family go, weather it’s a walk to the park or beach! We will love and care for your pet as our own. We have a backyard for them to pee/poo as well as a pool if they can swim. Will go on walks! I have two children who adore animals who are very gentle so we will all be spending lots of time together. Dog must be kid friendly though.
“We left our Boston terrier Oscar with Miaozi for almost two weeks. Starting from meet and greet we absolutely love to find such a great caring and loving sitter! Honestly, it was like leaving your pet with a very long known friend or family member. Absolutely trustable and responsible, very punctual. And the most important - you feel safe and confident your pet is staying with a loving friend while you’re so faraway. I highly recommend Miaozi to anyone looking for a great sitter for your furry baby.”
“Amazing stay for our fur baby he was relaxed and so content from his stay! Lei took excellent care of Zeus kept us posted sent us videos and pictures we were very pleased and assured our little guy was in good hands. Lei even went out of her way to return the feeder bowls I forgot at pick up she drove them over. Honestly amazing 👏 thanks so much for having Zeus”
“Daniel, Sarah & the kids are simply amazing!! We are repeated clients and I can’t say enough how much we appreciate the care and attention our dog receives at each stay! They are constantly sharing updates, which makes our trips more enjoyable just by knowing that our dog is also having a great time.”
“Hui really loves animals and is very passionate towards them. She is the best dog 🐕 sitter I have ever used. I brought my Coco to Hui for 5 days over the Christmas period. Hui sent photos and videos of Coco regularly and made sure Coco was active , fed and walked regularly for potty and pee breaks. I am relieved to know Hui is there in the future when I travel again. Thanks very much Hui!”
“We greatly appreciated Jocelyn and Jason's care for our dog, Jasper, while we were away. He enjoyed their company, as well as making other 4-legged friends. They kept in touch with us while we are away so we could vacation without worry! Thank you SO much :)”
“We had our two pups stay with them while we had our wedding during the weekend. They were well taken care of and the daily pictures and videos was great to get updated. I highly recomend and will be using again!”
“Absolutely fantastic experience with Kim! I would be thrilled to have her sit Ollie again. Her communication was excellent, and she was incredibly flexible with pick-up and drop-off arrangements. I felt immediately comfortable leaving Ollie with her, and he came back a very happy puppy. Highly recommend Kim for anyone needing a reliable and caring dog sitter!”
“Vivian was great giving updates of my dog and her parents taking good care of her. She has a lovely clean house and fully fenced backyard that my dog enjoyed. Thanks”
“We had our dogs stay with Tanya during our hectic wedding weekend and her friendly and unobtrusive updates gave us the peace of mind we needed to focus on the event. Luna and Wall-E seem happy and healthy as ever and they don’t seem to’ve gotten themselves into too much trouble while we were away. Our thanks go out to Tanya for being so accommodating and contributing to the success of our celebration.”
“Manali and her family poured so much love onto Zeus on our most recent visit to Ottawa. He really felt comfortable there. Elsa, their dog, was so gentle and accomadating to Zeus. They were also very accomodating to allow me to pick him up for a walk when i missed him! I would gladly recommend Manali for anyone looking for a homely environment for their dog.”
“Duke had a wonderful time! He was treated like family with all the attention he was used to getting at home. We got lots of updates and the communication was great. Thanks again! Perfect stay!”

“Cadence was wonderful with our cats. They loved her from the moment they met her. She went the extra mile when she was concerned about something. She was responsive and made sure we were comfortable with her being in our house. We will certainly hire her again!”
About: Hi, I’m Heather! 👋 I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember, and I’m so excited to offer dog walking, home visits, and pet sitting through Rover! I understand how difficult it can be to leave your precious pets with someone you’ve never met. That’s why I make it a priority to provide plenty of updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while your pets are in my care. Dog walking is my main focus, though I offer sitting and drop in services also. I’d love to become a reliable part of your dog’s routine! Whether your pup needs some extra exercise, a chance to get outside during the day, or simply some attention and companionship, I’m happy to help. I’m a very active person and genuinely enjoy spending time outdoors with dogs, so dog walking is a perfect fit for me. I’ve cared for dogs of many different sizes and breeds, including Doodles, Mini Goldendoodles, Maltese, and Golden Retrievers and more! I understand that every dog is different, and that breed, age, personality, and energy level can all play a role in what they need. I always take these things into consideration and tailor each walk and visit to the individual dog. As a self employed personal trainer, I have the flexibility to create my own schedule, which allows me to offer daytime walks and home visits and give your pets the time and attention they deserve. I’m also available for pet sitting when you’re away! Whether your dog needs a daily walk, a quick home visit for some company and care, or someone to look after them while you’re away, I’d love to help. My goal is to make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, happy, and well cared for. 🐶❤️ Send me a message if you have any questions! I’d love to hear from you. I work part time and create my own schedule, half my work is from home so I am only away for a maximum of 4 hours at a time per day. For walks I typically have availability in the late mornings, afternoons and evenings! I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and individual needs. I carefully follow all care instructions provided by the owner and make sure pets are safe, comfortable, and supervised while in my care. During walks, I’m attentive to my surroundings and always prioritize your pet’s safety. I’m also happy to provide regular updates and photos so you know your pet is happy and well cared for!
“Cassie was super communicative, easy to work with, and great with my cats. She was even able to extend her visits when my flight back got delayed. It’s such a comfort to know my kitties are well taken care of when I’m away. Thank you so much, Cassie!”
“Victoria is amazing ! My cat is usually timid but Victoria found a way to make her feel comfortable. She sent me updates after each drop in visits which I really appreciated !”
About: I’ve had cats since I was little, so being around them has always felt natural to me. I recently don’t have any of my own, which honestly just makes me miss spending time with them even more. I’m comfortable with different personalities, from super social cats to more shy or independent ones, and I know how important patience and routine are for them. I genuinely enjoy caring for cats and making sure they feel comfortable, relaxed, and well looked after.
“Jenna is awesome! She takes fantastic care of my cats, they love her. She's reliable, a good communicator and I fully trust her to make decisions when I'm not there. Thank you Jenna!”
About: Cats have been a constant source of companionship and comfort for me throughout my entire life, and I cherish every moment I spend together with them. I find that most cats are very resilient and adapt well to various environments. They are simply curious and enjoy exploring new surroundings. As most people who have owned pets for most their lives unfortunately there comes a time when your beloved friend gets sick or simply starts getting old. We have experience administering diabetes shots or simply antibiotics. In our home we like to use pretty litter because it helps us stay on top of our cats health. A simple UTI infection can be caught and dealt with in a timely manner before your cat starts to experience much pain and discomfort. As we like to say in our home, your fur baby will receive the same love, attention and dedication they get at home with you. We do our absolute best to accommodate whatever needs they may have. We have a baby gate we can put up if your pet needs a minute alone to eat special food if they are on a specific diet. Treats are available at your behest, only what you allow is what we will provide.
“I met with Trudy before the booking to discuss Tallaulah's care and for Trudy to meet Tallulah. Tallualh was cared for, and Trudy treated our home in a respectful manner. I highly recommend Trudy.”
About: Although I’m new to professional pet sitting, I bring something just as valuable: genuine love, patience, and dedication to animals. Friends and neighbors have always trusted me with their pets, because they know I treat every furry (or feathered!) friend as if they were my own. I work from home most days, which allows me to provide consistent attention and flexibility for feeding, walks, and companionship. On the three days I commute to the office, I am still available before and after work, while weekends are fully open. This schedule ensures I can reliably meet the needs of pets and give them the care they deserve. I’m meticulous about safety and will keep a close eye on your furry family member at all times. Your pet’s happiness and safety are my top priorities. Whether it’s daily walks, feeding, or just keeping them company, I’ll make sure they feel loved while you’re away.
About: Hi! I’m Adrienne. Caring for animals has always been something I genuinely enjoy, whether that’s going for long walks, providing companionship, or making sure they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. I currently own two amazing dogs - a 9-year-old German Shepherd and a 4-year-old Alaskan Malamute mix - so I’m very familiar with caring for large, active breeds and understanding that every dog has their own unique personality and needs. I’m an active, reliable, and organized person who loves spending time outdoors. Whether your dog enjoys leisurely neighbourhood strolls, longer walks on local trails, or simply having someone to keep them company, I’d be happy to help. I have experience with dog walking, pet sitting, and caring for both dogs and cats, and I always treat every pet as if they were my own. My goal is to give you peace of mind while providing your pets with the love, attention, and care they deserve. I can’t wait to meet you and your furry family members! I work for myself in Almonte so my schedule can (sometimes) be flexible! I work Tuesday - Saturday primarily and my days off are Sundays & Mondays. Fenced yard, non fenced yard, near water, crate trained, not crate trained, dog parks, walking in group, walking alone….. I’m confident in whatever makes your pet the most comfortable and happy.
“Meaghan was wonderful! She took great care of my two dogs, Rex and Biscuit during her drop in visit, and kept me updated with kind messages and photos throughout. Both dogs were happy, relaxed, and clearly enjoyed their time with her. She was professional, reliable, and very respectful of my home. I would definitely recommend her and look forward to booking with her again!”
About: I’ve been house and pet-sitting since I was 16. Always making sure my friends and family can step away with zero stress and their fur babies are the star of the show! I’ve taken care of small to medium sized mostly, but large dogs a few times. No matter where I go, pets gravitate towards me! My schedule is very flexible and I have great knowledge of the city with reliable transportation. I play sports in the evening a few days a week but nothing that can’t be worked around I will ensure I study the area my clients live in and discuss the areas and routines your pets are accustomed to. Also, the type words they respond to. I always want to ensure they will feel safe and comfortable.
About: Having grown up with feline companions through my loving grandparents, since childhood I've developed a deep love for the uniqueness of each feline being. I currently share my life with my 3 beautiful kitty boys, Chester, Biko and Tommy and have always had a multi-cat household. I know that every cat has his or her own unique personality, preferences, and quirks, so I take the time to get to know every cat with reverence and respect. Whether it’s playing with a favourite toy, administering medication, or simply offering a cozy lap for them to curl up, I ensure your cat feels safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. Your cat won’t just get fed—they’ll get a mini vacation of their own, filled with attention, playtime, and plenty of cuddles (if they’re into that, of course!).
“Megan was very good... On time and communicated about happiness (or displeasure) of our cat when we went away for a week. The princess wasn't mad as usual when we returned - so she Megan done good”

“We were very thankful for Nicole and Eddie’s availability on short notice when we needed to go out of town for the day. Both Teaka and Ciera were so excited when we arrived and they were very happy with their stay. They treated our girls like their own which put our minds at ease. I would totally recommend their services.”
About: *PLEASE NOTE THAT MY AVAILABILITY & CLIENT LIST IS NOW CLOSED FOR 2023. For additional updates. Hello! My name is Allie. I've owned four rescued huskies. I currently have two young rescued huskies and two cats! I walk, groom, feed, and train my animals. I have fostered two dogs, one which was a palliative case. I am comfortable giving medication and other medical care (ie: ear cleaning). I have been paid to board two dogs by a private client and had them as clients for a year. With the dog rescue I volunteer with, I have provided transport for dogs ranging in personality. I work full time from home, Monday - Friday. With my own dogs, they receive 4 walks per day (2 hours total), along with 30 mins of playtime. We visit a private fenced dog park. I spend most of my free time with my dogs. I am also heavily involved with an Ottawa based dog rescue. I transport dogs, have fostered, and do short term dog sitting for fosters. My dogs are fitted with a harness and I use a waist belt to walk them. No dropped leashes! Unless you have a preference, for safety, your dog would be double leashed - one waist belt and one slip lead. I have double front doors, helping to prevent any escaped dogs. I own two huskies so am very familiar with escape artists. Any toys or bones given (strictly only with request or permission from owner) will only be with the dog when supervised (helps to prevent obstructions & other possible injuries) I have a completely fenced backyard. However, your dog would still be supervised while outside. We will not meet other dogs while walking unless you would like your dog to. Proper communication will be used with other dog owners and off leash dogs will not be allowed to approach. This keeps all parties safe and comfortable.
About: I’ve had tons of different animals growing up. Recently had to euthanize my 15 year old family boarder collie. Also an English bull dog who passed away at two due to breathing issues. I miss having a dog around, however am not ready to adopt my own just yet. Would love to have them over here and there. I Absolutely adore dogs! I currently work from home so I am always here to take care and love your animal! Will walk, feed, cuddle them and if permitted, take them where me and my family go, weather it’s a walk to the park or beach! We will love and care for your pet as our own. We have a backyard for them to pee/poo as well as a pool if they can swim. Will go on walks! I have two children who adore animals who are very gentle so we will all be spending lots of time together. Dog must be kid friendly though.
About: I'm 22, I've had animals my entire existence including reptiles. I live on 4 acres of mostly fenced in yard for your babies to run around. I'm flexible on anything you need for your babies. (And I can babysit your reptiles) I currently have no job but I'm looking for a part-time so I can continue to focus on meeting all sorts of new animals that need somewhere to snooze and play. I have a mostly fenced yard, three doggos that are super friendly to everything. I have experience with vet medicine and crate training. I have LOTS of safe dog toys that need to be played with.
About: With 200 acres of open space, your dog can explore on or off leash, follow wildlife trails, and relax on the porch for sunset views. I’m a full‑time mom and homemaker, and a serious dog lover at heart. I’ll make sure your dog feels safe, loved, and cared for while you’re away. I’ve completed years of training with both puppies and adult dogs. I treat every pup like family while still respecting their canine nature and what they need to thrive.
“We could not be happier with the care that Jacqueline has provided for Duff! She knows her stuff and Duff can be nervous and reactive at times. He had a blast at "camp" and we look forward to taking him again tomorrow.”

We are currently building a kennel on our wooded retreat, and in the meantime, our home is open! We are home full-time and spend our days outside tending to the property, bringing your pets along, with lots of water and indoor breaks. We have a fenced yard and the house is able to be segmented off depending on the needs (puppy pen, cat area with dogs, cat area dog free, day crated, whatever your comfort is.
“Sawyer has had a great start with Jacelyn and Jason. He has never had dog sitting before, and he has not spent a lot of time away from friends and family. With back to the office starting, we were looking for a solution and he has been really good so far. On his second visit when he hopped out of the car and realized where he was he went straight for the door, tail wagging which is a great sign. We plan to continue booking and working with them as care providers for Sawyer.”
“Cindy was very sweet and took great care of Monty. I got pictures of his time there and he clearly had lots of fun. I will definitely be coming back. I feel so at ease knowing he played with some friends and came back a happy boy!”
“Wen is lovely and provided such good care of our pups. They had a great time, I could see this from the photo’s she shared and also from how happy they were when we collected them! They got along with her doggie so well. We will def rebook, thanks Wen!”
“Kirat and her husband took care of our pet Aadhi very well. They updated regularly with photos. They followed the care instructions. We will definitely use them again and again. Thank you Kirat.”
“Karen was able to accommodate us on short notice when we needed day care for our dog, Baxter. She was open to an initial visit to see if Baxter would get along with her dogs. He was a little resistant initially, but Karen worked her magic and she soon won him over.”
“Alaina was amazing she gave frequent updates with pictures, our golden retriever puppy had a great time with her pup, he was tired from having so much fun and playing all day, I felt comfortable that he was in good hands the moment I met her, we will definitely will be using her again for daycare for our pup.”
“Chantal is fantastic with my Jax! Jax has been for an overnight stay and a couple of doggy daycare stays so far, and he is always so happy to see Chantal, her pup Fergus and the other pups that are in her care. He has so much fun with them, and is very well cared for.”
“Rodrigo was an amazing dog sitter! I’m very happy with the care he provided for Milo. When I picked him up, Milo was calm, relaxed, and clearly well taken care of, which says a lot. I would definitely recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy dog sitter!”
“Henry’s first ever doggy daycare experience was with Vivian and her family. They were so wonderful and accommodating, providing updates and photos regularly. Henry is definitely definitely coming back. Thank you!”
“So happy that we were so lucky to have Trudy care for Bella today. We look forward to Trudy taking care of her in the future. Bella I'm sure will be telling us all about the "girls" day.”
“Jennifer was kind and warm at the meet & greet and, fortunately for me, was available to provide daycare on fairly short notice for my recently adopted older dog. I felt confident that Misty was in safe and caring hands. She came home tired and happy after a full day of fun and attention.”
“So impressed and grateful! Mitchell is amazing and documented Rosie’s day with photos and descriptions. I knew she was in the best of hands. Even cooler to see her napping next to a cat, meeting other dogs and doing a parallel walk with their dog. Amazing!”

About: Hi, my name is Vitoria Chambers and I have been on Rover for a few years. I have experience pet sitting for dogs, cats, and birds of all ages. I am able to administer medication. I love to make/come up with fun, stimulating activities for your pets, such as puzzles, interactive walks/training, etc. I work full time from 9-5 (not remotely) Monday to Friday. I would stop in at lunch. I head straight home after work and would be able to walk/play with your pets before/after those hours. I am home on the weekends and am happy to take your pet for runs, walks, and parks. I live in a house with an unfenced backyard. All pets are welcome on the couches and beds! :) We have many dog parks and large fenced areas I can take your pet out to! If I am going to your home, I would make sure some cuddle/attention time is allotted separate from the walks and adventures we will go on.

“Nicole and Eddie were great, I needed someone to walk my dogs when I went into labour, they were very flexible with planning and quick to respond when I needed them last minute. They were on time for all walks, and our dogs seemed to have a great time!”

About: I have had dogs for many years. Now that I am retired I am looking to giving back and helping other pet owners. I know that time is limited and sometimes you just need some help. Given my years of experience and my love of dogs, helping dog owners seemed the natural fit. It is a win/win....you get some much needed help and I get to enjoy being with your canine friend! I walk everyday as part of my active lifestyle and love to meet and greet dogs along the way. Seems like the perfect fit to invite your dog along for a scenic walk around the area. I love a brisk walk for my own health benefits and I know from past experience that my dogs always benefited from the same. Whether it was a better sleep or better appetite or being better behaved and ultimately more healthy, a good walk was the answer. I know from being busy in the past, I wasn't always able to get out regularly with my furry friends. If that is you, then that is where I come in to help and keep those walks regular.
About: 5 years of dog care Experience! Between having 2 of my own, I spent over 2 years at a daycare/Boarding facility helping take care of up to 120 dogs a day!

This could include a trip to the Starbucks drive-thru for a Puppuccino, a visit to a local park, or a doggy playdate if your dog enjoys socializing. Every outing is tailored to your dog’s personality and comfort level. Adventure add-ons are available for an additional charge.
About: As an animal lover who grew up on a farm, I have taken care of pets from a young age. I’ve previously worked in the pet industry, supporting pet owners and coordinating events with different local rescue organizations. Neighbours, friends and family have relied on me to, walk, feed and bathe their pets, as well as watching their homes while they travel. I am currently working part-time, so I will have plenty of time to care and play with your pets! My schedule allows me to have flexibility on both weekdays and weekends! I take great pride in creating a safe and structured space for each, unique pet while they are in my care. I understand the importance of routine for pets, while pet parents are away, to help ensure overall care, comfort and safety. I understand that because each pet is different, that each care plan will vary, depending on the pets needs.
“I’m so grateful for Jocelyn’s flexibility and willingness to accommodate us on short notice. Timon had a wonderful time on his walk and came back happy and well-exercised.”
About: I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember, and I’ve been caring for them since I was 12 years old. Growing up, I often looked after my neighbours’ cats, dogs, and rabbits while they were away - something i relished, as I wasn't allowed my own pet in the house (excluding fish, which i had many- i took what i could get!). Since moving out I have adopted several cats of my own and have continued to pet sit for friends regularly (both cats and dogs). They know they can always count on me if they need a sitter. :) Caring for animals has always felt like something that comes naturally to me; I love getting to know their individual personalities, routines, and little quirks. Most recently, I have cared, on multiple occasions, for three elderly and sick cats. Each has different health needs, medications, and eating schedules, so I made sure to carefully follow their routines and give each one the attention and care they needed. I also provided regular updates to assuage any understandable fears that the parents had. I’m reliable, responsible, and very attentive, and I understand how much trust goes into leaving your pets in someone else’s care. My goal is always to make your pets feel comfortable and loved while you’re away, and to give you peace of mind knowing they’re in caring hands. I recently moved from Vancouver Island back to my home city of Ottawa and am currently unencumbered by a full-time job. I am available 24/7 for attentive pet care, ranging from walks, feeding and check-ins, to multiple night stays. When caring for your pet in their own home, I want them to feel as comfortable and relaxed as possible by keeping their usual routine and giving them plenty of love and attention. I’m happy to take care of their everyday needs, including feeding, fresh water, walks, playtime, litter or bathroom breaks, and administering medications when needed. I’ll take the time to follow any specific instructions you leave me and pay close attention to your pet’s behaviour, making sure they are happy, comfortable, and safe throughout my visit. I also understand that every pet is different, so I’ll adapt to their personality and needs; whether they’re playful and energetic, shy and cautious, or simply looking for some extra companionship.
About: Long before petsitting became a commoditized business, Debbie Ozarko was on the Ottawa scene bringing joy to the lives of dogs and their people with her dog walking service, "We Take the Dogs Out" in 2000. This eventually morphed into, "It’s a Ruff Life Doggie Daycare" which thrived until her move to the British Columbia coast in 2013. Her love for such beautiful intimacy with animals has only deepened over time, and with her return to the Ottawa area she is eager to offer her exceptional services once again. Debbie is also a long-time volunteer with the Rideau Valley Wildlife Sanctuary and the IFAW Northern Dogs Project. Animals truly are her life. Debbie brings it back to what is most meaningful for all: respect, integrity and generosity of spirit—for you, and for your furry, fuzzy and feathered animal companions. Animals are my life! It doesn't matter if they are residents are not, they are all treated with love, kindness, respect, and compassion. My schedule is constructed around their needs first. I have access to several quiet areas where field, forest and streams abound for off-leash romps. If dogs are better with on-leash walks, I'm happy to take them to green spaces where they have access to lots of sniffing to satiate that deep primal canine need. I also provide healthy, grain-free treats...just because. Of course, I offer only these with your approval beforehand.
About: I have always had a dog since I can remember growing up we always had Labrador retrieversI love spending my time outdoors especially with furry friends. Since buying my own place a couple years ago we have added to our fur family. Many household and barn pets. I am super confident with animals and have a passion to spend time with them. I am currently offering hours daily. Monday: 6pm-8pm Tuesday: 6pm-8pm Wednesday: 8am-5pm Thursday: 6pm-8pm Saturday: 7am-12pm Please let me know if you need diff ent or more availability. I am happy to work with all my clients to accommodate their needs. I am lots of space to keep pets, a huge grassed yard with a gate closer to the driveway to keep all animals contained. I have 2 dogs that will accompany me on some walks / drop in visits.
About: I have always had a dog in my world. Being outside with them, and going on nature walks is the best; along with all the smiles and comfort they bring! No matter the distance, time spent outdoors with a pup always brings so much joy. At this time Thursday-Saturday evenings are best for over-nights. Weekends are also a time when I am free. If there were to be additional needed time given, I could potentially be available. I am also available for drop-ins and walks weekdays after 3:00 p.m. I would make sure that they have time to play around outside and then have a nap inside :) more outside time afterwards of course! I would play with them inside and give treats and meals as indicated from owner. With having two labs I understand dietary needs and can aid to those needs as-well.

About: I’ve had tons of different animals growing up. Recently had to euthanize my 15 year old family boarder collie. Also an English bull dog who passed away at two due to breathing issues. I miss having a dog around, however am not ready to adopt my own just yet. Would love to have them over here and there. I Absolutely adore dogs! I currently work from home so I am always here to take care and love your animal! Will walk, feed, cuddle them and if permitted, take them where me and my family go, weather it’s a walk to the park or beach! We will love and care for your pet as our own. We have a backyard for them to pee/poo as well as a pool if they can swim. Will go on walks! I have two children who adore animals who are very gentle so we will all be spending lots of time together. Dog must be kid friendly though.
“Daniel, Sarah & the kids are simply amazing!! We are repeated clients and I can’t say enough how much we appreciate the care and attention our dog receives at each stay! They are constantly sharing updates, which makes our trips more enjoyable just by knowing that our dog is also having a great time.”
“We greatly appreciated Jocelyn and Jason's care for our dog, Jasper, while we were away. He enjoyed their company, as well as making other 4-legged friends. They kept in touch with us while we are away so we could vacation without worry! Thank you SO much :)”
“We had our two pups stay with them while we had our wedding during the weekend. They were well taken care of and the daily pictures and videos was great to get updated. I highly recomend and will be using again!”
“Manali and her family poured so much love onto Zeus on our most recent visit to Ottawa. He really felt comfortable there. Elsa, their dog, was so gentle and accomadating to Zeus. They were also very accomodating to allow me to pick him up for a walk when i missed him! I would gladly recommend Manali for anyone looking for a homely environment for their dog.”
“Duke had a wonderful time! He was treated like family with all the attention he was used to getting at home. We got lots of updates and the communication was great. Thanks again! Perfect stay!”
“Bronco LOVES going to see Lindsay and her family! He’s slightly obsessed with her little boy. 🤣 I can always relax knowing that he is being taken care of, and he comes home happy and not at all stressed.”
“Wonderful experience for both myself and my dog. Katie’s first time being boarded and I was anxious about it, but Trudy was so great to us both. She made me feel safe and relaxed about the whole experience. Katie really seemed to really enjoy herself and her new pals. Would definitely recommend to anyone!!”
“Kavya took care of Bailey while we were away. Bailey made herself at home and was treated like family! I received news and photos every few days, it was perfect! Thanks!”
“Our golden retriever, Willow, is so amazingly happy at Danielle's. So excited to see Danielle, she barely notices when I'm leaving. And she looks so relaxed when I come to pick her up. And both of them seem to adore Willow. They often have other dogs and manage Willow's dog-social anxieties well.”
“We were concerned about leaving our dog with people as our last experience with a kennels didn’t go well. We met with Janice and Renee prior to booking and were reassured. They are an amazing family and our dog found his home away from home. Janice and Renee sent pics and notes every day and this was wonderful. We can’t think of anyone else we would leave our dog with. They only let us put 5 stars but we would give them 10!!! Highly recommend this great family.”
“Meghan & Jon took amazing care of our dog, Charlie! Great communication, lots of love, and peace of mind while we were away. Highly recommend and will definitely book again!”
“Rodrigo and his family were wonderful with our dog! April was a little nervous at drop-off, but Rodrigo made sure she settled in quickly and was comfortable throughout her stay. He sent regular photo updates, which gave us so much peace of mind, and made sure she got her walks and meals on schedule. When we picked her up, she was happy and clearly well looked after. He was also flexible when we needed to shorten her stay by a night. Highly recommend Rodrigo for pet boarding we’ll definitely book with him again for April!”
“Kirat was super responsive and helped us with a last minute boarding request. Not only did she help on short notice, she was WONDERFUL with Sadie. The kids loved following along with her stay through photo’s and instagram posts and it was awesome to follow along. Kirat genuinely cared for Sadie like she was her own. Kirat will be the first place we look for boarding going forward. I cant recommend her enough!”
