They followed all care instructions and asked all the right questions during our meet and greet to ensure it was a good fit! Kiki looked like she enjoyed her time and their company. Looking forward to coming back soon! Thanks again!”
“Sofia is a true animal lover. She was incredibly patient with my dog, great to work with and attentive/ understanding with my dog's needs in the moment. She followed my dogs schedule, kept me updated throughout the stay and went above and beyond to ensure she was comfortable. I would recommend Sofia to anyone who is looking for a sitter. Thank you so much for taking great care of Cali while I was away.”
“It is always worrisome with a hint of guilt when you leave your beloved pet with a stranger for a couple of days but leaving my 4 year old black male cat with Azar was the best decision I had made. Her home was neat and tidy and she took such excellent care of him, he complained when we put him back in his carrier to bring him home. Azar is a wonderful caregiver who sent me periodic pictures and videos of Zenny during his stay. I will definitely use her again when necessary and not feel guilty about it! Thank you so much Azar!”
“Tetyana and Eugene took such wonderful care of our dog, Flossy. They were fantastic communicators – keeping us updated regularly with the cutest photos and messages, which gave us so much peace of mind. They followed all of our instructions perfectly, and truly went above and beyond, treating Flossy like one of their own. It was clear she was completely spoiled and loved while we were away. We wouldn’t hesitate to have them care for her again and highly recommend them!”
“Yurixhi and her lovely family took such amazing care of Chanel while I was away. I truly appreciated the regular updates and knowing she was in such loving hands. It was clear Chanel felt right at hom; even when I picked her up, she went back to say goodbye, which says everything about the bond they formed. I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. Highly recommend!”
“Beethoven was very happy spent time with Scott and his dog and I am grateful to find someone like Scott for take care my dog and he cared very well the needed the Beethoven for sure I will be very happy to have to Scott many time I have to leave my dog with someone .Thank you Scott.”
“Adriana was a fantastic sitter for Chunky! She and her family were so friendly and welcoming, Chunky immediately felt at home with them. Throughout his stay, Adriana was attentive and caring, and at the end she even surprised us with a sweet slideshow of his best moments... so thoughtful! We could see how happy and relaxed he was the whole time. I’d highly recommend Adriana to anyone looking for a reliable, loving sitter who treats pets like part of the family.”

“We had our first dogsitting experience with Tsering and it was amazing! Tsering provided us updates and also took our puppy on a nice long walk. We will be going back for dog boarding with Tsering 🫶🏼”
“This was our second time working with Allan and Jessica to sit our French Bulldog, Frankie. We were gone for nearly a month for work, and they have always taken great care of her! Allan is really good and quick with communicating, and they were able to pivot easily when Frankie’s medication ran out and we couldn’t sort out a way to get more to them. That was my fault, and they handled it with grace and ease. We’re never stressed or worried when our dog is with Allan, Jess, and their sweet boys!”
“We live in Mississauga and needed to leave our 9 year old Maltese in good care. We found Monica, as she has many positive reviews and repeat clients. Monica is quick to reply and very easy to converse with. She offered a two hour meet and greet with our Maltese (Libby). Monica has a very lovely house and yard in Etobicoke. Monica and Libby got along well and we agreed to book her for 3 nights. We are very satisfied with Monica’s dog sitting service. We would not hesitate to rebook her in the future and highly recommend her.”

“Dubu had such a happy week with Hyewon. She sent me photos, videos, and detailed updates about Dubu twice every day. Unfortunately, Dubu got sick during the stay, but I was so grateful for how she treated him with such love and care. I highly recommend her to everyone. See you again next time!”
“We’re so grateful we can always rely on Nicole to babysit Rocky. He comes back happy and healthy, we never had any issues, and we appreciate all the photo updates. Thank you Nicole!”

“Tatyana did an amazing job looking after our 2 yr old cat Sid! She sent lots of pictures and videos, even when he was still hiding from her under the couch. 😹 She even went above and beyond when we had an unexpectedly early snowfall and cleared the snow off of our front steps! We came home to a happy cat, a house as clean as when we left it, and a safe path up to our front door. I was a little worried because this was my first time hiring a cat sitter, and because the last time we went away for a week we left Sid with a cat-only boarding house and he was miserable. He barely ate the whole week and he didn’t even look like himself in the photos the boarders sent. When we got home he wouldn’t finish meals and tried to bury his food for about a week (and when I say food is this cat’s joie de vivre I’m not being dramatic). But Tatyana took such good care of him that he even stopped hiding under the couch by the 3rd visit and looked like he was having a blast playing with her! For reference, it took him over a week to stop hiding from my parents when they stayed with us, and even then he kept his distance. After being cared for by Tatyana, Sid is acting like his normal self and eating meals just fine. In fact, he’s maybe a bit disgruntled that his new favourite human isn’t here to play with him now that we’re back. 🤭 Because of the time difference where we were, we got to wake up every morning to a detailed update on our boy and lots of pics and videos. It was so nice to wake up to, and such a relief to see him doing so well. I’m so thankful to Tatyana for providing such good care that we didn’t have any anxiety about leaving Sid behind while we travelled for a week and a half. She’s amazing!”
“We recently had Laura drop in on our adult cat twice a day while we were out of town. Her availability was accurate, she was very flexible to set up a meet & greet and we couldn't have been happier with this booking. Laura is very comfortable with animals, was reliable, communicated very well with notes/pics and provided a great piece of mind while we were away. Our cat goes outside so we had some concerns that we may not come in before the drop in ended - she had not problems with this and it never happened. We will be using Laura again and I would highly recommend her as a sitter.”
“Mariia is fantastic with our cat! We have her come by whenever we are out of town and she does a great job every time. Excellent with communication and sending photos and updates, we never have any worries while away. Thanks Mariia!”

I have a lot of energy to play with energetic dogs, and am very patient. I love to be organized and keep note of everything I need to properly take care of your pet, as well as stay attentive to keep them safe. I am currently in university, however my hours are flexible and only fall on two days. Either way we can work around with what you need and I am very lenient. I believe that different pets require different needs, and I would like to provide a comfortable and safe environment. This includes: Frequent walks and potty breaks, time to play, food and dietary needs, medication necessities, and if your animal likes affection, I would more than welcome that.
“Sofia is hands-down the best cat sitter we’ve ever had! She looked after our two cats, Tigger and Shona, and we couldn't be happier. From the very first update, it was clear she truly understands cat personalities—she managed to win over our shy one and kept our high-energy one entertained. We received regular photos and updates, which gave us total peace of mind while we were away. Sofia is professional, reliable, and clearly an animal lover. Tigger and Shona are already looking forward to her next visit!”
About: I've had cats all my life, I don't recall being grounded for any other reason, but to let cats sleep on my room... but it was worth it for me! My passion for cats still thrives, at the moment I have 2 that I've rescued from Animal Services and they make the delights of me and my children!
“We absolutely had the best person looking after our 2 kitties. Sarah updated us after every visit, and gave us complete peace of mind while we were away on vacation. I will recommend her to every pet parent I know. Thank you so much Sarah!”
“We had a wonderful experience with Vaishnavi! Communication was excellent from start to finish—she kept us updated with plenty of details and made us feel completely at ease. Tay clearly enjoyed her company, and it was great to see how much care she put into everything. We’d definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy sitter!”

“Juyeon was fantastic! She asked lots of questions which made me feel very secure leaving my fur baby in her care. I was impressed with her punctuality and could tell she spent quality time with my lil one. I'll definitely rebook with Juyeon!”
“Monika is excellent with my new puppy. She is more knowledgeable about puppy training than I am and is working with Riley on all sorts of behaviours and commands. She is caring and reliable and I highly recommend her.”
“I've had Vanessa take care of my cats now a few times and each time she leaves me with peace of mind that they are well taken care at home, she's now just a natural addition to our vacation plans! They are shy boys but she always manages to bring them out of their shell and it's nice to see that they clearly appreciate her company when she comes to visit them/take care of them! Always easy to get in contact with her as well, and her daily updates are awesome. 100% will book again!”
About: I grew up around dogs, have had dogs all my life and absolutely love them. My mother and aunt were dog breeders, and my uncle was a Chief Inspector for the OSPCA. I am also a dog handler at dog shows in Ontario and have been taking care of dogs for over 20 years. I currently have 2 snuggly pomeranians, who "think" they rule this household, but obviously provide daily laughs and humor. Your fur kids are in good hands and will be loved as though they are my own. They will enjoy frequent breaks and walks as well as cuddles during their time with me. I look forward meeting you and your fur kids to discuss their unique needs as well as our time together.

“Nicole is amazing with our mini golden doodle Cody. We have used her dog sitting service 3 times so far and Cody now runs up the stairs to her home! Knowing your pup is happy and in caring and knowledgeable hands is such a load off your mind. We will definitely continue to go to Nicole - 5 stars!”
“Roxy and hunter were amazing with Tito. Hunter kept Tito busy while Roxy kept us updated on how happy and settled Tito was every 3-4 hours. She was also very accommodative of my updated schedule as well. Thanks to her we could spend our day worry free. I would definitely recommend her for everyone.”

My shitzu and cockapoo puppy both came back happy like they had a good time. She’ll definitely be my go to going forward when I have to arrange care for my dogs.”

“Had a great experience with Lauren! She was able to accommodate us last minute, communicated wonderfully, and kept us updated with adorable photos and videos. Osito had such a great time! Highly recommend! Thank you again! --- Do you want me to also make a slightly longer, more heartfelt version?”

I follow each pet’s routine closely to keep them comfortable, happy, and stress-free while in my care.
“Chrissy was wonderful with my Percy. She was very caring, gave lots of hugs and cuddles, took good care of him and she even made a delicious meal for my little Chihuahua. Percy was very happy when I picked him up. THANK YOU CHRISSY!”
“Radhika and Shruti went above and beyond for me and Zuri. Sent pictures, videos, and updates throughout the day to update me on how it was going. This was especially appreciated since this was Zuri’s first time at a sitter since I’ve started going into the office, and Radhika and Shruti made me feel so at ease. Zuri loves them both and loves that she gets to spend the whole day with their lovely, playful and sweet Coco. Will be rebooking :)”
About: I was born into a family with a 1yr old labrador retriever, Ketchup. I worshipped her as my first bff and she tolerated me. I've had pet dogs all my life (and a brief interlude with cats too!). After Ketchup, we got a springer spaniel, Hazel, and then rescued a golden retriever, Duke. And most recently, 3 huskies - probably not the most intelligent move but wouldn't have it any other way - Zane, Bella, Enzo. So, really, I'm comfortable with all types of dogs and doggie personalities. My partner and I enjoy long walks and would love to take your doggo to the park with us. And I love couch-potating too, so the doggo will get lots of cuddles and play at home. I probably won't learn your name, but I'll know and love every silly quirk your pet has. :) I live a fairly active lifestyle and WFH. My neighbourhood has a lot of green space and trails to get some exercise in & apartment has a fenced patio if the doggo would prefer lazing around and sunning themselves. That aside - scritches aplenty! I live on the ground floor of an animal-friendly building. My patio is fenced - and your doggo won't be let out without supervision of course. Your doggo will have their own space in the house to get comfy in, with plenty of scritches :) I have no pets of my own, so they will rule the day. Happy to reinforce any training or play/treat schedule you have for your pet. And I'd love to send you photos and updates through the day so you know youre doggo is happy and safe.
“Sharon is the best dog sitter! She took care of my dog with such love and attention. Sharon went above and beyond by regularly sharing pictures and updates, which eased my mind while I was away. It was heartwarming to see her dog and mine playing together; it truly felt like a home away from home for my pet. With Sharon, I have complete peace of mind, knowing my dogs is in capable and caring hands. I’ll definitely be booking her every time I need a sitter!”

“Scott has been an excellent walker for Milo! We really needed some extra support for a few weeks and were glad to be able to rely on an experienced dog walker in the neighborhood. We also appreciated his flexibility to accomodate our needs and schedules. Scott took our pup on nice long walks, which gave him tons of exercise, and he greatly enjoyed playing with the other friendly dogs on shared walks. The tail wag says it all - thank you!”

About: I come from a pet loving family. We have owned 2 dogs and 5 cats. I have 6+ yrs experience working for a vet hospital and for a pet sitting and dog walking company. I work as a full-time teacher for the Peel District School board but am available for dog walks and or drop ins for cats in the evenings and boarding in my home on weekends.

About: With over 20 years of experience in animal care and welfare, I am passionate about providing the best care for your furry loved ones. As an animal welfare activist and dog rescuer, I have rescued and placed over 100 abused dogs and cats with trustworthy adoption families. I have also presented TV shows that raise awareness about stray/domestic dogs and cats and fight to end dog fights. I am proud to have been the first citizen/female in Jordan to file a lawsuit against a vet who was conducting animal testing and smuggling illegally exotic animals into inappropriate environments for breeding and trading. Additionally, I initiated a program called “Rahma” Mercy in English to teach children to be merciful towards stray dogs and cats, addressing cultural misconceptions. Giving back remains at the core of my work. A portion of every booking is donated to help abused and injured dogs in Jordan, helping fund life-saving surgeries and critical medical care. By trusting me with your beloved pet, you are also helping vulnerable animals receive a second chance at life. My home is a welcoming and loving environment for your pets, complete with a furry companion for your dog and a fenced dog park with plenty of room to play and run.

I take hygiene seriously, and my home is smoke, dust, residue and scent-free, using only high-quality venting filters. Your dog will also receive 3 to 5 daily walks, ranging from one to two hours, as well as daily brushing, washing after each walk, and bath if required. My husband and I work from home, allowing us to provide plenty of playtime and attention for your furry angels. Our schedule is flexible and always available to cater to your pet's needs. We are committed to the safety and security of your pets, both indoors and outdoors, and are happy to provide a crate if needed Our furry guests can enjoy a spacious park and a dog-fenced area where they can stretch their legs, play, and socialize with other dogs. At our home, safety and security are our top priority, both inside and outside, to ensure your dog feels comfortable and protected at all times.

I understand how important consistency is for pets, so I always aim to maintain their normal schedules and comfort levels. I have experience caring for animals in both home and shelter environments. I’ve worked at animal shelters, where I assisted with feeding, cleaning, enrichment activities, and helping animals feel calm and secure. In addition, I’ve regularly cared for pets belonging to family members and friends, providing daily walks, playtime, and general care. These experiences have helped me become attentive to different pet personalities, energy levels, and individual needs. I am patient, responsible, and observant, and I take pride in making sure pets feel safe, happy, and well cared for. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and building trust with them, whether that means energetic play or quiet companionship.

I make sure all harmful items are secured, windows and doors are safe, and pets have a quiet space to relax. I follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding times, play, and rest, to help them feel at ease. I keep their area clean, monitor their behavior and well-being, and make sure they feel cared for, safe, and comfortable throughout their stay.

About: With over 4 years of experience focused exclusively on small and medium breeds, I understand that "little" doesn't mean "low energy." Whether it's a spirited Frenchie or a sensitive Maltese, I specialize in the unique physical and emotional needs of dogs under 40 lbs. I provide a calm, controlled environment where smaller pups can feel confident and secure without the stress of being around larger, more boisterous dogs. As a dedicated pet sitter for small and medium breeds, my daily schedule is built around providing a stable, high-attention environment. I start my mornings with fresh water, breakfast, and a gentle walk or backyard playtime to get those little legs moving before I begin my remote work/daily tasks. Throughout the day, I incorporate frequent 'potty breaks' and short play sessions to keep energy levels balanced, ensuring that smaller pups never feel overwhelmed or lonely. Evenings are reserved for wind-down time and plenty of cuddles, mimicking the cozy home routine your pet is already used to." In My Home: A Safe Haven for Smaller Pups When your pet stays with me, my home becomes their 'home away from home.' I maintain a small-dog-friendly environment where I prioritize safety by keeping floors clear of hazards and ensuring all exits are secure. My routine is centered on supervised play and cozy rest areas, ensuring smaller breeds feel confident and relaxed without the stress of a crowded kennel environment." In Your Home: Maintaining the Comfort of Routine "For sittings in your home, my priority is minimizing stress by strictly following your pet's established habits. I stick to your specific feeding areas, walking routes, and 'potty' cues to keep their day predictable. Beyond basic care, I provide attentive companionship and detailed home security—bringing in mail or watering plants—so you can travel knowing both your pet and your property are in expert hands.
About: There is nothing more purposeful than spending one’s effort with a friend, a real friend. I’ve been a human for any dog that needs a human since I was 7 (even though mom approved my love for friends-dogs, much later) I’m a human to Kourage (my golden retriever) who loves to play ball and say hi to every dog or human he sees. I’m working from home so will always have an eye on our babies, in addition Kourage’s routine is scheduled, so walks, poops, pees and food is on time. Weekends I’m available all throughout. I have a well setup place for Kourage (my golden retriever) that can accomodate your baby easily and with comfort. Kourage is good company and there are plenty dog parks near us (both off-leash and leashed). So be assured that your baby would be well taken care of.

I am dependable and flexible pet sitter with a lot of love to give! I will provide a safe, comfortable, and fun environment for your fur baby while you are away. I live in an apartment building on the third floor with a fenced balcony. My partner and I share love for dogs and cats. He helps me to take care of them and walk the dogs during my working hours. In my home, I create a safe, comfortable, and fun environment for your pets. They will have plenty of space to play, relax, and feel at ease. I provide regular feeding, fresh water, and lots of attention and affection. When caring for pets in my clients' homes, I strive to maintain their regular routine to minimize any stress. I ensure they are fed, given fresh water, and receive plenty of attention.

“Thank you Alaa, I did not meet you in person but I hope to have the opportunity in the future. Thank you for being independent and take care of Kimchi 😊 We appreciated it so much.”

“Like most people, I have a pretty hard time leaving my dog to go on vacation. And my older dog is a little more fragile these days so he needs extra attention. Bri and Shaq totally get it. They are so kind and reassuring and they have shown nothing but love for my sweet Bohio! I never worried about him the entire time I was away because of the daily updates with photos. It's such a relief to know that Bohio was comfortable at their place and showed off all his usual fun quirks while he was there. I can only hope Bri and Shaq are available the next time I'm going away!!”

Our flight was delayed on our way back but Andres’ flexibility and understanding really helped reduce our stress and we are super grateful. Would definitely trust him with our dog again!”
“Katie & Sean were absolutely amazing looking after our pup Rodger while we were out of town for the weekend. Their communication & consistent photos was so nice to see. During a winter snowstorm, they managed to take incredible care & made us feel so calm when our travel plans got cancelled! Appreciate their ability to deal with our “still learning” puppy and would 1000% be booking with them again if we need someone to look after our boy!”
About: Our family owned 3 dogs. We had also 2 hamsters and aquarium with fishes. Sometimes our friends left their pets with us. We love pets and know how to take care of them. I plan my schedule around walks, feeding, and quality time, so pets get plenty of attention and are never left alone for long. I’m flexible and can adjust to your pet’s usual routine to keep things consistent. I make sure pets feel safe, relaxed, and cared for—whether in my home or yours. I stick to their usual routine and follow any instructions you leave. I keep a close eye on them and always prioritize safety. You’ll also get updates and photos so you know how they’re doing.

“This is the second time my Lola has stayed with Michael and he’s truly provided her a home away from home. When I go out of town I can always rely on Michael to make Lola feel loved and give her everything she needs! She gets excited when she sees him and that gives me so much peace of mind! I highly recommend Michael, especially if your dog has separation anxiety.”
“Sayantani & Dibyendu were wonderful! Our dog, Reggie was well cared for, well exercised, well fed! They saw he liked strawberries so they made sure to give him some even though we didn’t provide them and sent some extras home with us for Reggie to enjoy :) We got lots of pictures and videos and updates and they were really communicative about what was going on with our pup! He was allowed on the furniture and made himself right at home.”
