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.”
“Kristen and Jeffrey are wonderful pet sitter, they took excellent care of our furry troop! Right off the bat when I first met them I got an excellent first impression.

Thanks for doing such a great job, keep up the great work!! ❤”

She made sure to ask questions before drop off to get to know him and listened to everything we communicated with her. Would highly recommend!”
About: I have always been growing up with pets in my lifetime. I am experienced with dogs big and small. Cats of different breeds. I have experience with rabbits and chickens as well. I am currently retired and at home most of the time. We have a fenced large sized backyard that the dogs can play in safely. I have a fully fenced backyard for the dogs to play in. They are allowed to go in and out whenever they wanted. I do meet and greet to make sure dogs have good temperament that they can get along with each other. I am flexible in time schedule so I can always be at home to ensure dogs are safe and get along with each other. Breaking conflicts before they even started.

About: With a lifetime of animal care experience, I offer exceptional care to your beloved pet, whether it's a dog, cat, or emu. Ok, maybe not an emu, but I do have years of personal experience with a variety of animals: dogs, cats, hamsters, guinea pigs, rabbits, and horses. I grew up volunteering at the humane society, and I have years of experience working in animal rescue and veterinary clinics, in addition to dog walking for clients, where I gained valuable professional experience aiding in the care of all kinds of breeds of dogs with varying temperaments. It was at the rescue I worked at that I rescued my handsome pup Kai -- a semi-feral mixed breed from the woods of Manitoba. For the time being, my services will be limited to drop-in visits (not just for dogs) and dog walking. I'll even walk your cat if that's your thing! I offer individual solo walks or small groups of no more than 3 dogs if your pooch is more of a social butterfly. Either way, I can assure you that your family pet will receive the utmost quality care. I love 'em like they're my own. One thing to note-if you book an hour long walk these will likely be a bit longer than an hour as I will take them for adventure hikes, unless you request otherwise. My schedule is currently pretty flexible and open for the summer. September and onwards is still undetermined but please feel free to message me and inquire. At the moment I do not offer pet care in my home, however I am happy to go to yours up to 3x daily if needed to provide potty breaks or fun walks, as well as any necessary feedings or medications.
About: Hi Everyone! I can’t wait to hangout with your dog and/or cats; and give them the love, respect and attention they deserve. I know we’d all love to do that ourselves but it’s just not always possible unfortunately. I have 6 of my own cats at home with my husband. Our dogs passed on a few years ago and sitting through rover has allowed me to connect with amazing humans and their super cool pups! I’m comfortable and able to walk multiple dogs at once if needed, Whether we’re walking or hanging out at your place, I will ensure your dog is treated with the love that I treat my own pets with, which is a lot. I will make sure they are fed the proper foods, and medications if necessary and make sure they stay happy and healthy while they await your return. I hope we can chat soon, and arrange a time to meet you and your lovely fur-iend(s)! I’d also like to thank all my clients for their wonderful reviews! It is very much appreciated! ❤️ I currently work full time Monday-Friday 8am-430pm. I am able to do weekend, as well as extended stays. My husband and I can book up our schedules quickly at times with visiting friends and family, as well as other travel, so the more notice the better to fit you and your fur fam into my schedule! I have a fenced yard but boarding is decided on a case by case basis as I need to discuss it with my family and ensure my cats would be okay and not stressed out excessively during a boarding. Everyone’s happiness and comfortability is important.
About: I’ve had cats my entire life, I have experience giving medication and more than enough experience cleaning litter boxes! I’ve worked with animals that are not friendly and I have befriended them. I’m always up for a challenge and I love giving cats the attention they deserve
“Bridget came to feed our bunny Dennis a handful of times over the long weekend. She did an amazing job, changing his litter and brushing him even though we did not request that. She went over and above and met all of our needs and more. Will definitely have her back.”
“Sarah took fantastic care of my elderly cat. We had a car accident while we were away and had to extend my cat's stay. Sarah was so kind and was happy to keep him another night! I really felt my fur baby was in great hands. Thank you Sarah🩷”
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.
“Jacobe is very kind and great at communicating with you. He always gets back to us and provided videos from his first visit. He came by for a meet and greet beforehand at no charge and it’s obvious he loves and has experience with animals. Thank you, Jacobe!”
About: Hi there! I’ve been surrounded by animals my whole life. I grew up in a home with a total of 7 cats (yes, seven!), and I wouldn’t have had it any other way. On top of that, I’ve spent years dog sitting for friends and family. I know how important it is to find someone who truly cares for your pets the way you do. Whether it’s making sure your cat gets their quiet cuddle time, or your dog gets a good walk and plenty of play; I focus on keeping them happy, safe, and loved while you’re away. I’m reliable, easy to communicate with, and always go the extra mile to make sure pets feel comfortable and cared for. Your furry family member will be treated like one of my own! Pet care has always been a part of my daily routine! I’m currently on a career break at the moment and am very flexible to accommodate your pet’s needs. 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.

She's a great communicator and was very accommodating of some of our last minute requests.”

“Great experience! Allison and Scott are extremely responsive and friendly, and clearly love dogs. Our pup had a great day and we did too knowing she was in capable hands. She came home happy and exhausted from her adventure :)”
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.
“Warren and Angelica were amazing. The dogs had a wonderful time. Very friendly and compassionate. We had updates while they were out for a walk and getting treats. I highly recommend and will definitely ask them to look after our furry kids again. Thanks so much for the amazing care.”

Whether it's training lively pups or giving extra care to seniors, I've got the skills to ensure tails keep wagging. Your pet isn't just a client; they're family, deserving of top-notch attention and affection. I have a fully fenced in backyard. I work from home and it gives me the flexibility to provide top-notch care for your pets and can readily address any unexpected situations that might arise.

“Jean was absolutely lovely and incredibly understanding. She clearly knows exactly what she’s doing and was so knowledgeable throughout the whole process. Piper came home happy, tired, and clearly well-loved after spending time with Jean and the other pups.”
“Great experience! Easy drop off and pick up, they were very flexible and great communication with our 15 week old puppy! He was exhausted he slept the whole ride home. Would use again and very happy!”
“We used Rover for the first time, and are so thankful we came across,Shraddha. She was fantastic. We were so nervous leaving our puppy for the first time ,and Shraddha made it such a wonderful experience. We received updates, pictures and even a video. We highly recommend and will definitely be coming back.”
“Our dog was very happy and calm when we picked him up. Amanda was accommodating our last minute need for a dog sitter. Her property was perfect, took Walter on a long walk. Would definitely leave my dog with her again.”
About: Dogs have always been a big part of my life, and caring for them comes naturally to me. I’ve raised puppies and, most recently, provided dedicated senior care for my beloved dog until she passed away in May. My home has very few stairs, a beautiful fenced in yard, and everything your dog needs for a comfortable stay. Whether your dog is energetic or enjoys a slower pace, I’ll treat them with the same love, care, and attention I’d want for my own. I’m also happy to send you photos and do FaceTime calls if that’s something you would like :) I’m currently a graduate student who is not working so I have a lot of availability and flexibility. I will treat your dog with the same love and care that I treated mine with. I have a beautiful, fully fenced yard where your dog can safely run and play. There are only a few steps to enter the house, and if your dog has mobility challenges, I’m happy to carry them if needed. Your dog will be treated like family and will enjoy the same love and freedom my own dog did, whether that’s curling up on the couch, relaxing in a cozy spot, or simply being wherever they’re happiest. I also have an 9 year old daughter who absolutely adores dogs and loves spending time with them. We would be thrilled to welcome your fur baby into our home, where they’ll enjoy their own vacation while you’re enjoying yours! 🐾❤️
“Samantha her husband and the entire family were very friendly and welcoming to Tiko, Lili her dog as well. She was very accommodating to a change of time to pick up... which in the end was not needed.. I will recommend her and Lili her dog as great friends. Thank you so much for your kindness.”
“Shelley is the most capable dog carer in the city of Guelph! Bar none!! She understands animals. Her life experience has been devoted to their care…both physically and emotionally!”
About: I grew up with two family dogs, a dachshund and a german shepherd and wanted dogs in my life ever since I moved out from home. I waited patiently for 7 years until I could buy a house with a backyard to get my fur baby. Nala, our bernese mountain dog is the first child in mine and my wife's life. We both work from home and can give the care and special attention that your pupper deserves. We live close to great leash-free dog parks and trails, so your pup is guaranteed to have a lot of play and fun. We also do realize that each dog is an individual and special care instructions will be duly followed. I and my partner are fully vaccinated. We are both professionals working from home, so we have plenty of time during the day to tend to your dog's needs. During the day, we will make sure your dog is taken out as per your instructions. In the evening, we take our dog for long walks and would be happy to take your dog along. Your pet will get a lot of attention, cuddles, love and care. We are also flexible to your needs. We have a fully fenced yard where your pet can play with our 1.5 years old friendly dog. Your dog can run around in the backyard with their favourite toy. We would certainly be keeping an eye out from our garden gazebo and make sure that your dog is never unattended.
“They were absolutely fantastic. Very understanding to my schedule changes, and didn't seem phased by Henry's hound noises! (Which are loud and weird, I promise haha) They even made sure he had his medication when my instructions weren't complete. Henry left happy and now he's zonked on the couch. Their big backyard was great for a sniffer like him, and he loves a good couch cuddle. Will definitely be back!”
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.
About: Lifelong Animal Lover With 10+ Years Vet Experience 🐾 Hi! I’m so glad you’re here. My name is Bailey, and I offer in-home pet boarding, daycare, and care for small to medium dogs, cats, and small animals. My pricing is set at what I believe is a fair reflection of my experience in the veterinary industry, the quality of care I provide, and the time dedicated to your pet. At the same time, I work hard to keep my services affordable because I understand firsthand how expensive being a pet parent can be. My goal is to provide trusted, professional care without adding financial stress. I’ve worked in the veterinary field for over 10 years, and I now work from home for a pet microchip company—meaning I’m available, attentive, and trained to notice even the smallest changes in your pet’s behavior or health. Safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I share my home with two friendly chihuahuas, two bunnies, and 3 pet rats, all of whom are used to meeting new animals and do great with visitors. I also have a gentle, animal-loving 7-year-old who has grown up around pets and understands how to treat them with care and respect. Animals have been my passion since childhood, and I love creating a calm, fun, and secure environment where your pet can feel like part of the family. Whether your pet needs cuddles, playtime, supervision, or just a quiet place to relax, I’m here to make their stay safe and enjoyable. If you have any questions or special requests, feel free to reach out—I’d love to meet you and your furry (or fluffy!) family member! I currently work from home for a pet microchip company—so I’m home and available all day. Since the company is very pet-friendly, they’re incredibly accommodating when it comes to things like background noise, potty breaks, or anything else your pet may need. Plus, my own 2 dogs are home with me all day and would love to play with your pet! When your pet is in my home, they’ll be treated just like my own! They have full access to the couch and all areas of my pet-friendly two-bedroom apartment. You’re welcome to bring any personal items—beds, blankets, toys, or anything that helps your pet feel more at home—but we also have plenty of toys and treats here for them to enjoy. My two dogs use pee pads during the winter months, but I’m absolutely able to take your dog out for walks if that’s part of their routine. If your pet is also pee-pad trained, that works perfectly for us.
“Shannon was fantastic! Sent multiple updates with pictures throughout the day. She is friendly, understanding, and incredibly caring with my dog Pete. Home is well kept and a safe place for pets! I greatly appreciate her help. Will definitely book again, thanks, Shannon!”

About: I have had a lifelong experience with many animals. Having owned my own pup since she was a baby, I understand the unique challenges and joys of raising a dog. Additionally, growing up with two family owned dogs, guinea pigs, rats, ferrets, chickens, and cats I have been given me a wealth of hands-on knowledge in different breeds and personalities. This background not only enhances my ability to connect with animals of all ages but also ensures that I can provide attentive, compassionate care tailored to each pet’s needs. Your animals will feel right at home with me! Pet care is an essential part of my daily and weekly routine. With two dogs, I start each day with food, walks and playtime, ensuring they get the exercise and attention they need.

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.
“Alice was a hit with my dog right away. He is usually fearful of new people but he warmed up to her right away. I was worried about leaving but now that I know Alice is going to come and hang with him I feel better already.”
About: Growing up we constantly had many different pets. May it be cats, dogs, birds or even fish.

About: I've grown up around pets and have always been the person family and friends could count on to help care for them. We previously had a Doberman named Onyx, and although we no longer have him, I still miss him dearly. Raising and caring for a large working breed gave me a lot of experience and helped build a strong connection with dogs of all sizes and personalities. Near my home there's a large park that I used to take Onyx to regularly, and it's a great place for walks and exercise. If owners are comfortable with it and it's appropriate for their dog, I'm happy to incorporate park visits into their routine and even some fun training! I handle all the day-to-day essentials including feeding, walks, playtime, and making sure pets feel comfortable and secure. I pay close attention to their behavior and individual needs so they receive the care that's best for them. My goal is always to treat every pet as if they were my own, giving them plenty of attention, patience, and care while their owners are away. About you / Schedule I’m currently working at home, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to focus on pet care. I’m available most weekdays and also open for boarding and extended care on weekends. I enjoy spending that time walking, playing with, and making sure pets are comfortable and well looked after. I provide a calm, safe, and caring environment for pets whether in my home or a client’s home. I always follow the owner’s instructions closely to maintain their pet’s routine and comfort. I make sure pets are supervised, well cared for, and given plenty of attention, exercise, and downtime depending on their needs and personality.

About: Hi there! I’ve been surrounded by animals my whole life. I grew up in a home with a total of 7 cats (yes, seven!), and I wouldn’t have had it any other way.

About: I have always been growing up with pets in my lifetime. I am experienced with dogs big and small. Cats of different breeds. I have experience with rabbits and chickens as well. I am currently retired and at home most of the time. We have a fenced large sized backyard that the dogs can play in safely. I have a fully fenced backyard for the dogs to play in. They are allowed to go in and out whenever they wanted. I do meet and greet to make sure dogs have good temperament that they can get along with each other. I am flexible in time schedule so I can always be at home to ensure dogs are safe and get along with each other. Breaking conflicts before they even started.
