“Ruth was quite attentive to Molly, as well as putting my mind at ease with daily notes. Molly was well cared for. Ruth was patient with Mollys anxiety on hardwood floors, by putting out her carpets and runners! We will connect with Ruth again!”
“Teena & Wayne took amazing care of our cat and dog while we were away for 9 days. They have never been taken care of by anyone other than family in the past. My boys seemed quite comfortable and happy while they stayed with them. We will definitely use them again ❤️”
“This was the first positive boarding experience our 9yr old golden retriever has ever had (admittedly he usually stays in kennels). Normally, our retriever is stressed and anxious but Maddie clearly has a lot of experience and settled our dog almost immediately. Her home and yard provide the perfect environment whether your dog is active or just prefers to lounge on the couch. Her obedient lab and daschund were great companions. A nearby park and green space/creek provide a convenient off-the-road exercise venue. Maddie walked our dog right at sunrise before it got too hot and gauged his energy level throughout the 3 day stay to ensure he wasn't overworked. She provided frequent updates with photos and clearly he was a very happy dog. Medication was also property administered. I certainly plan to use Maddie's services again and highly recommend her!”
“I can't say enough good things about Liz. This was the first time to put our cat with someone new but Liz's love and kindness put us to ease. She sent daily photo updates, she treated Quinn like her own. There was no other pets and the house is well prepared for hosting pets. Quinn definitely miss her and will be back for sure. Couldn't ask for more. Highly recommended”
“It was our first time booking with Jessica, and we’re so glad we did! She was quick to respond to our messages, and setting up a meet-and-greet was simple and stress-free. Jessica and her partner were wonderful with Jane, keeping us updated with messages and photos of her adventures during both days of her stay. We felt completely at ease knowing Jane was in such good hands and would absolutely book with Jessica again!”
“Lily stayed with Samantha for 3 days, and I couldn’t be happier with the care and love she received. From the start, communication was more than excellent—updates, photos, and quick responses gave me complete peace of mind. Lily returned happy, and clearly very well looked after. Samantha is genuinely an amazing person (which is rare nowadays), truly cares about dogs and treats them like family. In short, Samantha is the best person in Ontario to leave your dog and have that comforting feeling that dog is happy and receives lots of love and care.”
About: I’ve always been a huge animal lover, and dogs have always been part of our family. We have dogs of our own, so I know how hard it can be to leave your pup with someone else and how reassuring it is to know they’re somewhere they’ll be genuinely loved and cared for. I’m home a lot, so your dog won’t be spending their day alone. I love having dogs around me, whether that means going for walks, playing outside, having a little shadow follow me around the house, or cuddling up on the couch. I’m also a mom of three, so our home is definitely a real, busy, loving family home! My goal is for your dog to feel like they’re simply joining our family while you’re away — with lots of attention, play, cuddles and belly rubs along the way. 🐾❤️ Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I’m home a lot and already have dogs of my own. I’m able to give them plenty of attention throughout the day, including walks, playtime, outdoor time and lots of cuddles. As a mom of three, our home is busy but loving, and I’m used to keeping a consistent routine. Your dog would be included in our day-to-day life and would have company rather than being left alone for long periods. I enjoy having dogs around and making sure they feel comfortable, cared for and part of the family while they’re with us. 🐾❤️ When a dog stays with us, I want them to feel like part of the family. They’re welcome to relax with us, play, explore the yard and find their favourite cozy spot in the house. I try to follow their normal routine as much as possible, including feeding times, walks, potty breaks and bedtime habits. Because I’m home a lot, I’m able to give them plenty of attention and keep a close eye on how they’re settling in. I also understand that every dog is different, so I’m happy to adjust things based on what makes your pup feel safest and most comfortable. Most importantly, I want you to be able to enjoy your time away knowing your dog is safe, loved and probably getting a little spoiled! 🐾❤️
“The dogs were very happy when we saw pictures John and Stephanie sent us. they gave the dogs their freedom of there house.and I would recommend them to others who looking for boarding their dogs.”
“Kerri-Lynn was great with our dogs, one of which is 14 years old and deaf and one who is timid and afraid of new places. She kept sending pics of pur dogs throughout the night and it was obvious they had settled in perfectly and comfortably!”
“Katherine was lovely. Commutation was great. I was nervous about leaving my anxious dog with her and he did very well. They came home happy. She gave Barry his meds daily too!”
“Jennifer was absolutely amazing with our little guy! She truly cares about your pet as if it was her own. She sends pictures and makes sure you receive daily updates! We ran into unexpected traffic delays on the way home and Jennifer was super flexible and able to keep Kovu a little longer than expected, which was a total lifesaver! We will certainly be using her services again! Thanks so much Jennifer!”
“We loved having Lana and Artur watch our little dog. They were attentive, communicative, and provided many updates. We also liked that they were open to a meet & greet and didn’t feel rushed. They’re willing to accommodate feeding restrictions, allergies, or any other special needs. We accidentally sent expired treats with our dog and Lana noticed and let us know! We definitely hope we’ll be able to leave our dog with them again.”

“Lyndsay was fantastic! She was very thoughtful and took great care of Duke during his stay. She gave great updates and communication was fantastic! I would trust Duke with her and her wonderful family any time!”
“I left my puppy with Manvi for a few days and had such a great experience! She was amazing with her, very flexible and kept me updated throughout the stay with pictures and little updates, which I really appreciated. She also made sure Tala got her medication on time and I felt completely comfortable knowing she was well taken care of. I would definitely book with her again and highly recommend her! 🤍”
“Would highly recommend Mark for my dogs stay! Updates provided daily and super friendly. Watson had a great time and came back happy. It looks like he had a blast during his time over at Mark's. Next time I need a dog sitter I'm heading to Mark's place!”
“Our dog Snowy was very well taken care of in their home. We even received regular updates and pictures of Snowy. Debora and Eric were very friendly and we will definitely choose them the next time we go away.”
About: I have taken care of dogs since I was a 10. I have experience with small to medium size dogs. I have owned a Chow chow, American Eskimo, Minature Pintsher, a Shihtzu. My Shihtzu passed and I have not been ready to adopt a new dog so I figure why not dog sit to fill my void of doggie cuddles I work from home so I am flexible to be with your dog all day. I can go out for multiple walks a day to keep the dogs happy and not bored I am in a townhouse. I do have stairs but they are fenced off. I am comfortable with senior care and giving medication.

“Sheila is lovely. Very calm and gentle. We are so thankful that Sheila was okay with giving Daisy her medicines and her sub -Q fluids since not everyone would be comfortable with that. We haven’t been on vacation for 5 years and it was great to get pictures & updates to help us feel comfortable about Daisy’s wellbeing”
About: I’ve been caring for cats for about seven years through cat sitting for neighbours, friends and family. Cats have always been a huge part of my life and I’ve had four of my own. I understand that every cat has a unique personality, and I take the time to make them feel comfortable, safe, and cared for while you’re away. Whether it’s feeding, cleaning litter boxes, playing, giving affection (on their terms!), or simply keeping them company, I’ll treat your cat like they’re one of my own.
“This was my first experience using Rover and Danielle made it the best possible ! She is an incredibly sweet and kind animal lover who made sure Emmie & Greycy had lots of attention during her visits. I really loved that she sent me a short message and picture while I was away to let me know everything was ok. She is 100% reliable and dependable. I won't hesitate to ask her to look after my girls again and know that I can go away without stressing about their care.”
About: I’ve cared for cats since I was young, caring for neighbourhood cats and for my friends cats when they’ve gone on vacation. I’ve also cared for cats during my volunteer work at an animal shelter and during my time at an animal daycare. I have experience administering oral medication and caring for senior cats.
“Stacey was great with our very shy young cat and won his trust enough for him to come out of hiding and show his face to get some treats and to play a bit. She kept us updated everyday with pictures which was great! We would definitely have her do drop in visits again with Freddy!🐈”
“Alicia was an amazing caregiver for our cat! She provided updates and lots of photos everyday. She listened to the cues our cat gave her and made the most of every visit ensuring adequate play, cuddles and duties were finished. We felt so great knowing Olive was in good hands and will definitely book Alicia again when needed! Thank you!”
About: Cats have been an important part of my life since I was born. My family always had 2-3 cats growing up, and now I have 4 of my own who I adore so much. I’m definitely a cat person through and through and understand “cat etiquette”. Every cat is different and they like to be shown love differently, some from afar only! All 4 of my cats have very different personalities so I have experience with the whole spectrum. I believe relationships with cats require building trust and having patience. My special skills include: Caring for elderly cats Administering medications (pills, syringe, topical) Experience with many different types of litter Experience with hostile cats
“Kaeley, was beyond and above my expectations, my very scared cat Max, was comfortable with her, which is the main concern of mine. I was quite pleased with her communication and pictures she sent me. She is very clean, quiet and respects your home...I highly recommend her..and would book her again ..”
“Mary was so lovely! I appreciated her flexibility with our meet and greet, the pictures she sent, her consistent timing, and her updates. I hope to get her in the future when we travel!!”
About: We have been caring for cats since our childhoods. We pride ourself on being able to give them the extra care they need when not feeling well. Besides making sure the kitty litter is changed and your cat(s) have fresh food and water, we are also experienced at administering medication. Jim has even saved cats from fires.
About: I’ve taken care of cats for a few years. I recently cat sat for about 3 months! Say hello to Pudding and Pancake who are in my profile picture!! I’ve taken them to vet appointments and cared for them post vaccines and during during heat ! Making sure to clean up their litterbox frequently, provided them with many treats and cat television when we weren’t playing with lasers and toy mice and support them during their stay.
About: Recently, on March 14, 2025, my cat of 11.5 years passed away. He was suspected to have congestive heart failure but died before it could be officially diagnosed. He was my entire world. As he got older, I learned more and more about what cats need. Their diet, their exercise, their play. I would feed him before I would feed myself. And I would research everything before incorporating it into his life. Most importantly, I learned how to fall more in love with cats than I ever had growing up. And I learned the type of person that loves cats is the type of person I want to be around

“Samantha is amazing. We left our boy with her for about 10 hours while we were out in the city for the day. She sent frequent pictures, videos, and text message updates about how it was going and what he was doing. She’s super friendly, attentive, and has a great fenced in yard for outdoor play as well! When we picked up our boy, he was happy, fed, and tired after an exciting day of activity. We will definitely be using her again in the future. Thanks Samantha!”

About: Hi! I’m Maria, and dogs have been a huge part of my life for as long as I can remember. I’ve had dogs since I was 12, and all of them have been Labs — so you could say I have a lifelong soft spot for big, goofy, loving dogs. ❤️ I recently said goodbye to my sweet Maggie after 16 wonderful years together. She lived a long, happy life surrounded by so much love, affection, and care, and she truly was everything to me. My home feels very different without her, and I realized how much I miss having a dog around.

“Kerri-Lynn was amazing with my dog. She sent updates and pictures to let me know how my pup was doing. She was also very nice and patient. Nyxie had a great time and she came home happy and tired from all her fun.”
“Svetlana and Arthur are truly amazing! I’m so glad I got to know them and was able to leave my dog, Lola, with them while we spent a day in Hamilton—with complete peace of mind. From the moment I booked Lola, they were incredibly communicative. They video called to show me their home, their adorable dog, and the environment where Lola would be staying. On the day of, they walked us through their house to reassure us it was fully pet-proof and safe. They were so kind and attentive to Lola, making sure she was comfortable, well-fed, and entertained. They kept us updated throughout the day with photos and videos, and their lovely son even made a sweet video of Lola filled with hearts and love! It’s clear they truly enjoy what they do and have endless love for dogs. I highly recommend this wonderful couple for anyone looking for trustworthy and caring pet sitters.”
“I’m so very pleased to have made a connection with Tammy. First, she was willing to meet and test herself for any allergic reaction to our Lexi. Thankfully there was none!! From the first moment we met Tammy and later her hsbd, I could see Lexi was super relaxed and at ease. Getting to know Tammy prior to arranging daycare was a pleasure. I appreciated all the questions, her eagerness to interact with Lexi, her manner of joy, gentleness and natural confident leadership while handling our girl. Our first dog-sitting went smoothly for everyone. There was excellent communication between us, I had 100% peace of mind while away and from photos Tammy shared, I could see Lexi was a very happy girl. I’m grateful to know that Tammy and Gord are people with whom we can trust and count on for future dog sitting and perhaps (hopefully!), overnight stays too ?? ?”
“Charlie had a great first day with Victoria and Lady. He was very tired when he got home so I know he was busy and had fun. Victoria sent lots of pictures and videos through out the day so I knew he was safe and well cared for. Can’t wait to bring Charlie for his next visit:)”

This was our first time leaving him with anyone other than family and he loved it, but most importantly we were reassured that he was safe and doing well during the whole day. Stephanie sent us many videos and pictures of Apollo’s stay, which was amazing because we could see how much fun he was having! I will and already have booked multiple more doggy day care for Apollo with Stephanie and recommend anyone to do so too!”

“This was our first time hiring a dog walker and we had such a great experience! Kimberly-Ann was super reliable, easy to communicate with, and went above and beyond. Our dog Trudy can be pretty anxious with new people, but she was so patient and kind with her. It was nice to see her slowly warm up to her after a couple of walks. We felt comfortable knowing she was in good hands and we’ll definitely be using her again. Highly recommend!”

About: Hi! I’m Hannah, a 26 year old Canadian currently living in Grimsby, Ontario. I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember, and caring for them has always felt like second nature to me. Back in high school I started working in dog daycares through a co-op program, and quickly realized this was exactly what I wanted to do. From 2016–2022, I worked in different dog daycare and care centres across Ontario, gaining extensive experience working with dogs of all sizes and energy levels. I treat every dog like they’re my own, and I want both pets and owners to feel comfortable knowing their pup is in good hands. I look forward to meeting you and your pets and giving them all the love and attention they’re used to at home! Warmly, Hannah It fits seamlessly into my schedule as pet care is my full time job. Any day, anytime I am available. Send me a message to schedule! I am unable to provide pet care in my own home, but I can travel to the client’s home or hotel to care for their pets. I offer services such as dog walking, outdoor exercise, potty breaks, playtime, feeding, and lots of love while the pet remains comfortable in their own environment or outdoors! :)
“Theresa is a pleasure to have in our circle. Tobias hadn't seen her since the summer and he instantly remembered her. He was excited and we wouldn't imagine anyone else to walk him. Thank you for doing this on short notice and a seamless experience for us all.”

My wife and I have looked after numerous dogs from friends and family and also had a Cockapoo of our own that sadly passed in 2018. I have a lot of patience and willing to have an enjoyable time with any dog I have been retired since 2024 and am looking at filling some of my time looking after dogs and getting some exercise while walking your dog I would safely walk your dog and pu after it and make sure every precaution is taken to keeping your dog safe from other dogs or people if needed
About: For the last 10 years, I have taken care of animals of my own as well as neighbour's and friends. Dog walking and sitting feels as if it’s second nature! As I currently work a flexible schedule, there are times during the week and weekend where I am completely free to walk. Having a companion to walk with would make it even better! I have two dogs and a cat that are all well behaved and completely spoiled. We have a fenced in back yard along with a lower unit that is separate from the other dogs if need be.
About: I’ve always felt a special connection with dogs, and my time spent fostering and doing rescue work really taught me how to connect with them on their level. It showed me how much patience and love it takes to make a pup feel truly safe. To turn that passion into a daily routine, I also worked at a doggy daycare, which is just as fun as it sounds! It’s given me amazing experience with every type of dog personality imaginable—from the high-energy goofballs to the quiet ones who just want a buddy to sit with. I know how hard it is to leave your furry best friend, so my goal is always to treat them exactly like family, keeping them safe, happy, and understood. Having recently moved to Ontario, my schedule is completely open and flexible! Because I'm settling into the area, pet care isn't just something I squeeze into my day, it is my daily routine. This open availability means I can completely adapt to your pet's specific clock, whether they need early morning walks, strict mid-day routines, or just a consistent companion throughout the week. When staying in your home, my top priority is keeping your pet's routine exactly the same so they feel safe and stress free. I treat your space with total respect while focusing on personalized care whether that means high energy playtime, long walks, or just quiet companionship. With my background in reading animal body language, I’m always attentive to their comfort levels and safety. Plus, I’ll keep you connected with regular photo updates for total peace of mind!

Whether your pup is full of energy and loves to play or prefers a quiet day with lots of cuddles, I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. 🐶💕 My schedule is fairly flexible since I work part time, so I’m able to accommodate a variety of pet care needs and schedules. I’m happy to work around your pet’s routine whenever possible and can often be flexible with drop ins, walks, and sitting. When I’m not working or taking care of my own pets, I have plenty of availability to give your pets the attention, care, and companionship they need. I’m also happy to discuss specific schedules and see what works best for both you and your pet! 🐾 I provide pet care in the client’s home, where pets can stay in their familiar environment and maintain their normal routines. I’ll follow all instructions provided by the owner, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, bathroom breaks, and any other care they need. My own kitties and dogs have their set routine, so i will make sure to always stick to yours routine! I’ll make sure your pets receive plenty of attention, companionship, and care while you’re away. I’m respectful of your home and will always leave everything clean and tidy. I also understand that every pet is different, so I take the time to learn their personality, preferences, and individual needs.
About: Your dog isn’t just a pet — they’re family. ❤️ And they deserve to be treated that way! What sets me apart is the love, compassion, and genuine attention I bring to every walk. I believe every dog deserves patience, kindness, and individualized care. I take the time to get to know each dog’s unique personality, needs, and comfort level so they feel safe, happy, and loved. I’m a real estate agent with years of experience in customer service, relationship building, and caring for others. I pride myself on being compassionate, dependable, attentive, and detail-oriented. As a dog lover, I would love the opportunity to spend more time outdoors, getting fresh air and exercise while caring for and walking dogs. Real estate offers me a very flexible schedule, making dog walking a perfect fit for my lifestyle. I can enjoy my love for the outdoors while providing dogs with the attention, exercise, kindness, and care they deserve. 🐾❤️ I provide loving, attentive, and compassionate care to ensure every dog feels safe, comfortable, and happy. My care includes daily walks, playtime, feeding, providing fresh water, and administering any necessary medications according to the owner’s instructions. I pay close attention to each dog’s individual needs, behaviour, and well-being, making sure they receive plenty of affection, exercise, and attention. My goal is to treat every dog as if they were my own and give owners peace of mind knowing their furry family member is in caring, responsible hands.
About: Your pups paradise🐾: a calm, quiet, child-free cozy oasis. No other pets = full attention for your pup🐶 Experience caring for puppies and aging dogs. We plan to adopt our own puppy soon but in the meantime would be so excited to visit with your fur baby!☺️ We both work from home and have a fenced in yard so your pup will get lots of attention and outdoor time. 🍃We love to go for walks (quiet streets and trails nearby).

About: I grew up with pets and love taking care of them. My first pet Barney was my best friend growing up. We would play every day and I would feed her, brush and bathe her and clean her litter. She was a special part of the family for 16 years. My next pet Aiden was a very special part of my life. I always took good care of him and he was a real comfort to me when I was feeling down. I had another pet Rambo who just recently passed. She was almost 17 years old. I saved her because nobody wanted her and we always had a special bond. I appreciate their unique personalities. I am very caring and gentle. I currently work for Vogue Models & Talent which is based in Hamilton, Toronto and Vancouver. It's a fun and creative job and I enjoy it very much. I have a fenced in yard and my house is very clean and safe. I always keep my eye on the pets I care for.
About: I have taken care of our pets since I was a kid. I have had everything from the regular dogs and cats to sheep, chickens and horses. I am a true animal lover and so is my husband. I work full time but in a rotation that allows flexibility. Love spending time at home with our furbabies and enjoying our backyard with yard work and gardening. We have a fully fenced yard for you pet to run around and beautiful areas as we are a few minutes from Bayfront park/waterfront piers. We have 2 furbabies of our own and we are both animal lovers.

“Ruth was quite attentive to Molly, as well as putting my mind at ease with daily notes. Molly was well cared for. Ruth was patient with Mollys anxiety on hardwood floors, by putting out her carpets and runners! We will connect with Ruth again!”
“Hayley was amazing! we could tell coco had a great time during her stay since she came home tired. She was very responsive and took care of all coco's needs. Definitely recommend her”
“Lily stayed with Samantha for 3 days, and I couldn’t be happier with the care and love she received. From the start, communication was more than excellent—updates, photos, and quick responses gave me complete peace of mind. Lily returned happy, and clearly very well looked after. Samantha is genuinely an amazing person (which is rare nowadays), truly cares about dogs and treats them like family. In short, Samantha is the best person in Ontario to leave your dog and have that comforting feeling that dog is happy and receives lots of love and care.”
“Samantha is a phenomenal Rover. Likewise, our Goldendoodle Lucy who traveled with us from Florida to Hamilton, ON, loved and enjoyed her stay with Samantha. Despite our uncommon travel situation, Samantha promptly answered all our questions and concerns. She was sweet to her dogs, and I felt she treated my pup as her own. Samantha gave us updates, photos, and videos every day. I am incredibly relieved and pleased to have found her. It’s a shame she is in another country; otherwise, we would constantly be in contact. You will not regret having Samantha take care of your little one.”
“Bright was a loving and thoughtful caregiver for Bailey. This is the first time Bailey has stayed over with someone that was not family. At first she was hesitant but she fell in love with Bright during her stay and was so well cared for. Highly recommended!”
“Jennifer was absolutely amazing with our little guy! She truly cares about your pet as if it was her own. She sends pictures and makes sure you receive daily updates! We ran into unexpected traffic delays on the way home and Jennifer was super flexible and able to keep Kovu a little longer than expected, which was a total lifesaver! We will certainly be using her services again! Thanks so much Jennifer!”

“We completely trust Aliza to watch our pup while we are away. He gets excited when we pull up to her house! She makes him feel like a member of her family. She is great at sending updates, pictures, and videos. We always appreciate her kindness, communication, and flexibility. Thank you Aliza!”

About: I've taken care of animals since I was little, have worked in daycare facilities and have a furry friend of mine. I strongly believe in setting routines, playing to the maximum and loving even more. I work from home for the majority of the week and am trained to give my dog adequate attention in a routine, so I'd know how to do the same with yours! I have a small yard but plenty of trails and greenery around me. I have a dog of my own who'll keep yours company and I follow a great routine of play, walks and potty breaks!
“Just Great! My Dog has been there on two separate occasions. Naomi and Sam are awesome at keeping me updated how my Dog is doing which is comforting! Very nice people highly recommend!!”
“Emmie and her partner were so so wonderful with Archie! Archie has a bit of separation anxiety, so Emmie took the time to meet him before the actual stay so he was comfortable with her. Archie also takes medications and has a specific diet that Emmie was able to accommodate to with no problem. We were gone for 5 days abroad and she was super communicative, sending pictures, and overall giving us updates on Archie's stay. I would 100% recommend Emmie for boarding and will definitely book with her again.”
“Heather and Pieter were the best with Arya! She had such a good time at their home. She played with their son and received lots of cuddles. We would definitely ask them to take care of Arya anytime in the future. Heather and Pieter are such nice people and I can tell they love dogs and take really good care of them!”
“Elena made us feel so comfortable leaving our dog with her, and sent us regular updates about how things were going. She even dealt with a few issues that came up with our dog’s anxiety, and kept us in the loop. We felt very confident that our dog was well taken care of with Elena, and I would highly recommend her to anyone!”
“Rosie was very well cared for and Aishwarya sent regular pictures and videos. A great fenced yard for the dogs to run around. Aishwarya clearly loves animals and we will definitely use her again should we have the need”
“Samantha was incredibly hospitable, kind, and accommodating. She made everything easy and comfortable, and I really appreciated her thoughtfulness and flexibility. I’d gladly recommend her to anyone!”
