“Our 11 month old whoodle had a blast with Allison and Scott. Ember is a very social pup and it was like staying at camp for her! We were given a tour of their amazing property before our first booking was confirmed. During her stay we received lots of photo and video updates. Ember came home a very tired and happy pup, took 3 days to recover from her “puppy hangover”. Happy to have found our new go-to boarder!”
“Hi Jean. Thank you again for watching our puppy a second time while we are away onna 10 day vacation. We appreciate your puppy guidance while we grow with our new furry family member. We also appreciate all the photos sent while we were away and hope that our next visit he'll be a more mature doggy for you to watch. Thanks again.”
“Shelley was very receptive to Misty’s medication needs and clearly loves her charges. Thanks for looking after Misty so well. She’s already looking for your back yard.”
“We left our puppy with them for 9 days while we were on holiday, and we couldn’t have asked for better care. They are genuinely warm, sincere, and truly love animals. They treated our puppy like their own and kept us updated every single day with pictures, which gave us so much peace of mind. We came back to a happy, relaxed, and well-cared-for puppy. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for trustworthy and loving sitters. We will absolutely book with them again!”
“We had Rusty stay with Wendy and Ian for 12 days. I can't say enough great things about them. Best word ever "Awesome " They walked Rusty everyday, sent pictures, made cute comments. They never for one minute made us feel uncomfortable leaving him with them. He was happy to see us but I'm sure disappointed in leaving them. I highly recommend them to anyone. Rest assured you won't be disappointed. Thanks again Wendy and Ian for all that you did. Until next time.😄🐶”
“Eva was wonderful! She took care of my pup really well :) she kept me informed about my dog throughout the day by sending pics and videos. She was also accommodative in terms of timelines. I will definitely come back to Eva for daycare and boarding of my dog.”
“Thank you, Shannon for taking care of our boy Jax! It was great to see photos of him, enjoying his stay with you, and we can tell he was very happy! Of course this makes us very happy while we are away, knowing that he is in good hands. Thank you again. We are extremely grateful for your service! Rod and Michelle.”
“Annette literally welcomed Shadow with open arms from the second they met and it just got better from there! Annette was so accommodating with Shadow and kept us informed with daily updates, which were so reassuring. We will definitely be using Annette again and would happily recommend her to anyone.”
“Pei was excellent with Maggie Mae! She asked a lot of questions about her commands and habits, reinforced her training, introduced her to some new things (roosters!), and ensured that she got both lots of exercise and lots of snuggles. Maggie Mae loved playing with her Burmese Mountain Dog Oscar. Pei provided regular detailed updates and was fast on communication. Pei's house is definitely one of Maggie Mae's new favourite places and we will certainly rebook with Pei.”
“Samantha was really accommodating host and she and family took care of Cosmo well. Cosmo had absolutely bonded great with kids and pets including Lillie and had an excellent time.”
“Very accommodating to our requests and schedule, and our dog was calm after a day with them (she usually starts very anxious). They gave updates, photos and video throughout the day. Highly recommend them.”
“John was really flexible with us this weekend and kept him much longer on the last day than we anticipated! He’s great with communicating with us and we really appreciate him!”
“We were very fortunate to have Natalie look after our rambunctious 1 yr old Lab Beau for a week while we were on vacation. She was very patient with him as were her dogs Sawyer and Daphne. She kept us updated and assured us he was settling down - eventually ?. He returned home happy and tired - a sign of a great holiday!”
“Paige is so reliable and kind hearted. I can’t thank her enough for helping us out and going the extra mile to make things convenient for us when we needed it. Our pup pup feels so comfortable with her and we highly recommend her if you’re on the hunt for a great sitter!!”
“I want to thank Camila and her family for taking a very good care of our dog, Honey. Honey stayed with Camila for more than a week and Camila was sending updates, photos and short videos of her. We were very nervous to use dog boarding services, having updates made the experience easy and very pleasant. We definitely are going to be a returning client. Thanks so much Camila and Family?????”
“Stephanie and Brandon were wonderful with my pup! They provided regular updates about the adventures my dog was having while in their care. I wouldn’t hesitate to leave Emma with them again.”
“My dog(Willow) had a lot of fun and great time with Randi and her family for two weeks(Christmas and holiday season) while we were away. I am very thankful that Willow stayed with Randi. Thank you very much, Randi! We will see you soon or later for Willow again.”

About: I’ve taken care of pets for what feels like all my life. I’ve always had pets of my own, watched for my families and friends and love to do it! I’m currently working from Monday to Friday 10am-6pm but am free before and after that. i am completely open on weekends to fit your needs! I care for pets by sticking closely to their usual routine and the owner’s instructions. This includes feeding, walks, playtime, medication if needed, and making sure they’re safe, comfortable, and getting lots of attention. I keep their space clean and always check in with updates so owners know their pet is happy and well cared for.
“Madeline was an amazing cat sitter! She took such great care of our cats while we were away—sending regular updates, photos, and making sure everything was just right. It was such a relief knowing our cats were in such caring and capable hands. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and thoughtful sitter!”
About: I’ve had many dogs and cats throughout my life. I strive to give my furry friends as much attention and love as possible! I love cuddling and playing with dogs, and I have recent dog walking and pet sitting experience! I’m also a very reliable person so you can count on me :) I’m currently working part-time, so I have limited availability for drop-ins and dog walks. I’m typically available on Sundays & Mondays for those two services. However, I’m always available for house-sitting! I will gladly come to your home to care for your pets! I absolutely love playing with animals and taking them out for walks! I always make sure food and water is fresh and filled before I leave. However, I don’t bring any animals to my home because I don’t own it.
About: I’ve had the joy of being around cats my whole life, starting with barn cats I cared for growing up. More recently, I rescued two kittens—a male and a female—who are now happy, healthy 1-year-olds living with me in my home. This hands-on experience has given me a deep understanding of feline personalities, from playful kittens to more independent adult cats. I provide gentle, loving care and create a safe, stress-free environment for every cat.
About: I have decades of cat and dog experience. Recently, our family dog crossed the rainbow bridge and I am hoping helping others' pets can help fill the void. I raised a dog from puppyhood, fostered a rescue, and have dogsat several family and friends' dogs. For now, I can offer evening, overnight and weekend pet care. My aim is to work from home full-time and so eventually I will be able to do more! All food, toys, walks, crating, etc. will be to your instructions. Safe playing is a great time to get to know each other. I am very much the "mom" when I have to be - dogs usually respond well to my queues, and I am available as a safe place for them. My place is an apartment above a couple shops downtown Elora. There are lots of green area or trails around the neighbourhood. There are three kids here 50% of the time (ages 10-15) who are experienced with pets. There are no other animals here.
About: I have had cats my entire life. I currently have two, Copper and Cassandra. Due to my extensive pet sitting experience and a lifelong dedication to my cats, I have experience with cats of all ages and breeds. I have had domestic shorthairs, Persians, Siamese, Ragdoll and Maine Coon. Loving and taking care of cats is my true passion and top priority. I will always put a cat's needs ahead of mine- whether they're extra shy or super social - every cat is deserving of an infinite amount of love and care. I love and care for everyone's cat just like they are my own, whether that means petting, holding, brushing, playing, feeding or just offering company. Let me know your cat's needs so I can be as helpful as possible!
About: I 've been a dog owner for most of my life, growing up with family pets and later caring for dogs of my own. Spending time on a farm has also given me hands-on experience with a variety of animals, including dogs of all sizes, breeds, and personalities. Before our current dog, we had a rescue for about 8 years, so I understand the patience and care needed for dogs with anxiety or fearfulness. Creating a calm, safe, and reassuring environment is something I take seriously. I genuinely love helping other pet owners feel confident that their dogs are well cared for when they can't be home - whether that means providing a comfortable place to stay or getting them out for a fun, energizing walk during the day. I understand how stressful it can be to leave pets at home during the work day or when you go on vacation. I enjoy staying active and love walking or running with dogs, so your pup can get as much exercise and attention as they need. Our current dog is very friendly, used to having other dogs around, and would be thrilled to have a playmate. I work from home 3 out of 5 days a week but my schedule is flexible. Our dog is accustomed to being fed morning and night and is happy to be walked any time of the day or to roam our property. My yard is not fenced but we live on acreage so our dog tends to roam freely. For dogs who may not do well roaming we can use a leash or a rope to keep them safe. Happy to cater to pets needs to create a safe and happy environment in our home or theirs.

I share my own home with three dogs and two cats, so animals aren't just my work, they're my life. I'll be honest, I love animals more than most people, and every decision I make during the day is based on what's best for the pets in my care. I'm experienced with a variety of training tools and techniques, including e-collars, prong collars, and Gentle Leader walks, and I'm comfortable with all temperaments, from sweet, wiggly puppies to dogs who prefer not to be touched. I'm doing this because I genuinely love meeting new furry friends, and my long-term goal is to build my own business in the animal care world. I can't wait to meet your sweet babies!

“Super fast response times, and even managed to slot an extra sitting in for us with only a few hours notice. She was so good with our kitties, and they absolutely loved her. We feed a complex mixed diet of cooked food and kibble, and Sonya handled it amazingly! She was extremely attentive and kept us updated on our boys during a very stressful time. Thank you Sonya!”
“Nina took care of our 2 cats (6 months & 15 years) three times a week for 3 weeks and it was clear how much she cared about them and how comfortable they became with her. We especially liked the many pictures she sent us!”
“Nicole took wonderful care of our two cats! I appreciated her prompt communication and frequent photo updates. While I was away, I felt comfortable knowing the cats were in good hands. Thank you, Nicole!”
About: I have been working as a veterinary assistant for the past 5 years and am knowledgeable about pet first aid, emergency triage, and overall care. My Bachelors degree is in Animal Biology, where I learned about animal behaviour, health and nutrition. I also have been training service animals part time since 2015 and enjoy combining training with walking services. The majority of my service dog work is with puppies so I am prepared for all that comes along with a new puppy. I recently have gone back to school as a mature student. Most of my program is online so my schedule is very flexible and varies. For boarding and daycare: I have an apartment so your dog will need to go potty on a leash. I have a four year old mixed breed dog who loves having friends visit.

About: I retired in 2020 and returned to college to receive my Registered Veterinary Technician diploma in 2023. I have been a foster parent to hundreds of animals over my lifetime, specializing in animals who require medication and specialized medical care. I am retired and available to watch your pet at any time. Last minute and longer term care remains an option. I do travel on occasion but this would be communicated with plenty of notice. I have just moved to the Fergus area and reside in a park-setting which has a fenced leash free area on site. There is a lake should your pup like the water! I can accommodate crate trained animals however my general thinking is that your pet would be like my own were, snuggling on the bed or couch. I realize how important consistency and routine is to your pets wellbeing and would ensure that your routines are followed should I be staying at your home.

“Milo had a great time with Adam and Ester and kids. He seemed relaxed and calm when I picked him up and seemed to be having a nice time. They sent pictures and messages updating me throughout the day so I was able to relax knowing he was being well taken care of. This was a great experience using Rover for the first time and I will definitely book with Adam and Ester again soon!”

“Excellent communication and flexibility. Jennifer and Jason’s home is a dog paradise. Yvie had so much fun that she didn’t want to leave. Highly recommend their daycare service.

About: Growing up, I started my own dog-walking business in my neighborhood, which gave me hands-on experience caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities from a young age. Over the years, that passion has only grown stronger and evolved into extensive experience caring for both dogs and cats. As a proud owner of Bengal cats, I understand the unique needs, energy levels, intelligence, and personalities that different pets require. I am comfortable providing enrichment, play, exercise, feeding, medication administration, and attentive daily care tailored to each animal's individual needs. I also have experience training and caring for a high-drive Doberman Pinscher, which has given me valuable knowledge in obedience training, structure, exercise requirements, and managing intelligent, energetic breeds. Working closely with a breed that thrives on consistency and engagement has strengthened my skills in reading canine behavior and building trust through positive reinforcement. One of my greatest strengths is my emotional intelligence when it comes to animals. I naturally connect with pets, understand their body language, and recognize when they need comfort, play, space, or reassurance. I believe every animal deserves patience, kindness, and individualized care, and I treat every pet as if they were my own family member. Whether your pet needs an energetic walking companion, a reliable caregiver, or simply someone who will provide love and attention while you're away, I am committed to ensuring they feel safe, happy, and well cared for. Work from home/self employment makes caring for animals a breeze! It also allows for the consistency they need and desire for breaks and play time. Your pet's safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. I provide a loving, clean, secure, and closely supervised environment where pets can feel relaxed and cared for while you're away. When walking dogs, I always keep them safely leashed unless they are in a fully fenced and secure area approved by their owner. I am highly attentive during walks and outings, ensuring dogs are protected from potential hazards and are always under my supervision. I understand that every dog has a unique personality, and I am especially mindful of nervous, anxious, reactive, or sensitive pets. I pay close attention to body language and behavioral cues, allowing me to recognize potential triggers before they become stressful situations. Whether a dog needs extra patience, space from other dogs, a quieter walking route, or additional reassurance, I adapt my approach to help them feel safe and confident. My experience caring for a variety of breeds and temperaments has taught me the importance of consistency, trust, and positive reinforcement. I take the time to learn each pet's routines, preferences, and needs so I can provide personalized care that helps them feel at home. When your pet is with me, they will be treated like family with plenty of love, attention, exercise, and a safe environment where their well-being always comes first.

“Deborah-Lynn took wonderful care of my 2 dogs. From the moment we met it was evident that her love for animals is second to none. We have a senior with heart condition and a puppy that has endless energy and Deborah-Lynn navigated their needs and provided excellent accommodations for their individual needs. She communicated frequently through the day, kept me updated and demonstrated care and kindness. She reinforced training, especially with the puppy and shared valuable insights with me to help me support when home. The boys had such a terrific time they’re going to be going back next week. I interviewed and met several dog care providers and Deborah-Lynn stood out amongst all.”
“We really appreciate all that Bego does for the dogs in her care. She goes above and beyond with photos and updates. Yvie gets lots of play time and walking with Bego! We recommend highly!”
“Lindsay was the first non family member I trusted to watch my boy Rocky and I am beyond grateful for her help. She did a fantastic job and I would recommend her to anyone.

I know things like feeding, walks, and play time look for different for each pet. I stick to your pet’s usual routine so they feel safe and comfortable while in my care. I also keep your home tidy and treat it with the same care and respect I would my own.

“Our 11 month old whoodle had a blast with Allison and Scott. Ember is a very social pup and it was like staying at camp for her! We were given a tour of their amazing property before our first booking was confirmed. During her stay we received lots of photo and video updates. Ember came home a very tired and happy pup, took 3 days to recover from her “puppy hangover”. Happy to have found our new go-to boarder!”
“Hi Jean. Thank you again for watching our puppy a second time while we are away onna 10 day vacation. We appreciate your puppy guidance while we grow with our new furry family member. We also appreciate all the photos sent while we were away and hope that our next visit he'll be a more mature doggy for you to watch. Thanks again.”
“We left our puppy with them for 9 days while we were on holiday, and we couldn’t have asked for better care. They are genuinely warm, sincere, and truly love animals. They treated our puppy like their own and kept us updated every single day with pictures, which gave us so much peace of mind. We came back to a happy, relaxed, and well-cared-for puppy. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for trustworthy and loving sitters. We will absolutely book with them again!”
“We had Rusty stay with Wendy and Ian for 12 days. I can't say enough great things about them. Best word ever "Awesome " They walked Rusty everyday, sent pictures, made cute comments. They never for one minute made us feel uncomfortable leaving him with them. He was happy to see us but I'm sure disappointed in leaving them. I highly recommend them to anyone. Rest assured you won't be disappointed. Thanks again Wendy and Ian for all that you did. Until next time.😄🐶”
“Pei was excellent with Maggie Mae! She asked a lot of questions about her commands and habits, reinforced her training, introduced her to some new things (roosters!), and ensured that she got both lots of exercise and lots of snuggles. Maggie Mae loved playing with her Burmese Mountain Dog Oscar. Pei provided regular detailed updates and was fast on communication. Pei's house is definitely one of Maggie Mae's new favourite places and we will certainly rebook with Pei.”
“Samantha was really accommodating host and she and family took care of Cosmo well. Cosmo had absolutely bonded great with kids and pets including Lillie and had an excellent time.”
“John was really flexible with us this weekend and kept him much longer on the last day than we anticipated! He’s great with communicating with us and we really appreciate him!”
“We were very fortunate to have Natalie look after our rambunctious 1 yr old Lab Beau for a week while we were on vacation. She was very patient with him as were her dogs Sawyer and Daphne. She kept us updated and assured us he was settling down - eventually ?. He returned home happy and tired - a sign of a great holiday!”
“I want to thank Camila and her family for taking a very good care of our dog, Honey. Honey stayed with Camila for more than a week and Camila was sending updates, photos and short videos of her. We were very nervous to use dog boarding services, having updates made the experience easy and very pleasant. We definitely are going to be a returning client. Thanks so much Camila and Family?????”
“Stephanie and Brandon were wonderful with my pup! They provided regular updates about the adventures my dog was having while in their care. I wouldn’t hesitate to leave Emma with them again.”
“This is the second time we left Riot with Catharine and her family and it’s nice to know that Riot is being well cared for. She even got to make new canine friends.”
“Deepti is a wonderful host for Moxie. My pup is always excited to see her and gets lots of love and attention. The communication is always great from beginning to end and Deepti is very flexible.”
“I had a great experience with Saksham and his wife! they were super attentive, and my dog seemed happy and relaxed when I picked her up :) they took her on plenty of walks(just the way she likes it) and even made her feel at home by letting her sleep on the bed or couch!!I really appreciated the regular updates with pics, which made me feel at ease while I was away”
“I had a great experience! She took wonderful care of my dog, Aquene, over the weekend. Aquene had an amazing time playing with her two dogs and going out on trail walks during her stay. She kept me updated, and I felt comfortable knowing aquene was in such good hands. I would definitely trust her with my dog again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable dog sitter!”
“Gail was awesome, taking care of our dog Wally in her home for 5 days and nights in March 2026. Wally was walked 3x per day, and we felt totally comfortable after an initial meet and greet that Wally would be in good hands while we went on vacation. Gail accommodated an early morning drop off so we could catch our flights. And we got lots of pictures while away which we loved. If you need someone to take care of your dog, and love them like you do, don’t hesitate to contact Gail !”
About: I have decades of cat and dog experience. Recently, our family dog crossed the rainbow bridge and I am hoping helping others' pets can help fill the void. I raised a dog from puppyhood, fostered a rescue, and have dogsat several family and friends' dogs. For now, I can offer evening, overnight and weekend pet care. My aim is to work from home full-time and so eventually I will be able to do more! All food, toys, walks, crating, etc. will be to your instructions. Safe playing is a great time to get to know each other. I am very much the "mom" when I have to be - dogs usually respond well to my queues, and I am available as a safe place for them. My place is an apartment above a couple shops downtown Elora. There are lots of green area or trails around the neighbourhood. There are three kids here 50% of the time (ages 10-15) who are experienced with pets. There are no other animals here.
“Awesome stay, really helped us out! Very much appreciated the daily updates and pictures, it was really comforting to see our dog have fun while we were away.”
