“Peanut just had her first stay with Elizabeth and Gary. What a wonderful caring couple, they adored Peanut for the weekend and Peanut was very happy and tired when I got her home. They sent me pictures throughout the day of her stay over which was sweet and she looked so happy. And were happy to work with me on any little small issues she has with being left away from us, surprisingly she had a peaceful happy weekend. I have booked her again in the summer and she is so conveniently close to where i live which is a bonus. Thankyou so much ! The Walker Family”
“This is the third time I’ve left Ollie with Carol - this time it was for my wedding out of town. We had peace of mind knowing that Ollie was in such good hands with Carol and her family. Carol is so wonderful, caring, and reliable. Thank you Carol!!”
“Rebekah and her team were wonderful with our dog Loki! As a dog mom dropping her pup off for the first time they were understanding of my concerns and helped us feel very comfortable leaving him in their care. We will definitely be reaching out to them again!”
“This was Skye second boring at Sayalis place and he seems to love it. Sayali has been very patient and caring while we adapt him to sleepover somewhere else. I would 100% recommend.”
“Jilly stayed for the day today with Amanda and Brock, her first time with them. And everything went so well! I received some photos and comments from them during the day, updating me on how Jilly was doing. It was so great to have that reassurance that all was good. Jilly had her 2 daily walks, lunch and Kong treat as requested. And I brought home a happy and relaxed pup! Thank you Amanda and Brock. You made us feel very welcome and we will definitely see you again soon.”
“We knew the first time we met Joyce for a meet and greet that she was going to be an amazing caregiver for our dog, Bentley. Joyce looked after Bentley for a two-week period while we were in Europe. With frequent updates from Joyce, we were able to enjoy our trip that much more knowing Bentley was well cared for, enjoying his stay and enjoying meeting other pups Joyce cares for. Joyce was exceptionally patient with our fussy eater too. We have booked Joyce for other upcoming commitments and would highly recommend her to anyone needing pet care.”
“Michelle was great-my girl, Sadie, had a blast. Michelle kept posting pictures to me throughout the day. I could see that my girl was having fun and was being treated well. I will definitely use Michelle for any future dog stays I need.”
“Jake had an amazing time with Yoda! She was super kind and clearly cares about the pets she watches. She asked lots of questions to get to know more about Jake and his specific needs. I loved that she texted me updates and photos, it made me feel so at ease. I will definitely have Yoda sit for us again!!”
“Our dog Lucy had a great 10 day stay with Mike. We received daily feedback including pictures and videos. It was great to know she was safe and happy. She had several walks and went to the bush for exersise. She had lots of playtime with Tao and Finn and other dogs staying at Mike’s and loved the big back yard to roam. Mike and Yummi also gave Lucy cuddles and made her feel loved while we were gone. I would highly recommend Mike if you want your dog to enjoy a vacation while you enjoy yours!”
“Adlynn and her family, two doggies and partner, did an outstanding job of caring for my dog. He was very nervous and not used to being away from me. Adlynn was able to gradually get him to feel safe and he really enjoyed the rest of the time there. I would highly recommend!”
“Takes good care of pet. However, it is good note that she seems to take care of other dogs at the same time as far as I could ascertain … also, she has a very friendly golden retriever, which is good. My main tip to her is that she should take more videos and photos throughout the day of the babysat dog and interactions with her other dogs. Regardless of all the points mentioned above, the service isgenerally high quality. We would book her again.”
“It was our first time using the Rover app, and we couldn't have lucked out more in finding Leslie and Richard to watch our dog while we were out of town for the weekend. They were so welcoming, kind and attentive, and sent lots of photos and updates. They truly catered to our dog the whole weekend and spoiled him with extra walks and treats. You can tell they really, really love dogs and treat your fur baby like their own. I would highly recommend Leslie if you are looking for a sitter in the future, and Troika is excited for his next visit! Thank you so much for everything-you truly made our trip worry free because we knew our little buddy was in such good hands.”
“Brittany was absolutely amazing! Mocha had such a wonderful stay with her and came home happy and relaxed. Brittany sent us photos of Mocha every day and took him on a walk daily, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. She took such great care of him, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Mocha would absolutely love to stay with her again!”
“Nathaly was great at communicating and providing periodic updates and pics. She also did a great job at making cuddles look beautiful again with a pretty pink bow. Thank you so much for loving Cuddles while I was away :)”

“Faye was a wonderful caregiver for our two cats. Our " meet and greet" was warm and friendly, and it was evident from the get go that she would look after our cats well....so accommodating and thorough. Our time away was worry free and it would appear that the cats did not miss us at all I would highly recommend Faye for your pet needs!”
“Jacqueline was a very reliable and trustworthy pet sitter when she did drop in visits for my cat Spike. She was very thorough in her animal care and her interactions with Spike, always sending updates and photos during her visits. I will absolutely boom again if I need a pet sitter in the future!”
About: Although my profile lists six years of experience, I’ve been surrounded by cats for as long as I can remember. My own cat, Finn, has been by my side for the past six years and is truly the heart of our home. Living with cats throughout my life has taught me that every cat has a unique personality, communication style, and comfort level. I’ve learned to recognize their body language, respect their boundaries, and adapt my care to each cat’s individual needs, whether they’re playful and social or shy and independent. I understand that caring for a cat goes beyond feeding and cleaning a litter box. It’s about creating a calm, safe environment, maintaining their routine, providing enrichment, and building trust at their pace. I also recognize that care can vary depending on a cat’s age, breed, temperament, and health needs. My goal is always to ensure your cat feels comfortable, secure, and well cared for while you’re away, while giving you peace of mind that they’re in compassionate and attentive hands.
About: Depuis toute petite, je me suis occupé de mon chat qui maintenant, n'est plus de ce monde. Elle a vécu jusqu'à 16 ans. Donc, question chat, vous pouvez me faire confiance. Litière, brossage, promenade, nourriture, je peux vous faire tout cela!
About: I have taking care of my own cat since I was kid. As an adult I have adopted some cats and cat sat for multiple neighbors. I have owned a cat who had some medical conditions and I am familiar with administering medication and eyedrops to cats and ensuring they’re cared for properly and comfortably!

“Sapphire loves going to Claudia’s. She has gotten to know Claudia and that makes it easier for me to leave her for the day. She enjoys playing with the other dogs.”
“She is wonderful! Liam loved her right away during the meet and greet. From the very first sitting, she went above and beyond. She was supposed to walk Liam and leave him at our house while we were away, but after receiving the hurricane amber alert, she immediately went to check on him and offered to take him to her home. We’re very happy to have found someone we can truly count on in town.”
“Jacqueline was great with Cookie. She sent me lots of photos 📸 of her during the day. I could tell Cookie liked being there with her pup and her. She looked so happy in all her photos. Cookie was so excited to see her this morning 🌄 when we arrived. 100% recommend Jacqueline. Will definitely have her watch my baby Cookie again!”
“Laura provides your pup a home-away-from-home! She goes above and beyond with 1-on-1 time, walks, and cuddles! Laura updates me throughout the day so I can be at ease. Thank you Laura!”
“She was amazing and I’ll always come to her if I need someone to take care of Maverick. She made sure my puppy who is 5 months was introduced to the other dogs slowly and comfortably. She sent me many updates, photos and videos. I had someone cancel on me last minute and she responds right away. I’m very happy and recommend her to anyone using this app! She also has a lot of availability, flexibility, a yard and ensures the puppies needs are being met. She made sure all my questions were answered and that I was confident to put Maverick in her care!”

About: I have over 12+ years of dog ownership experience as well as 3+ years experience in dog adoption/fostering. Taking care of other people's pets is second nature to me. As a dog owner myself, I understand that it is stressful to relinquish control of your pets care to someone else. I was caught up in the business of the 9-5 workday and stressed to find care for my dogs that was personable and affordable. I have recently lost my job and in the midst of looking for work, I decided to open up my home to some furry friends! **I am only able to provide care from 8am-6pm daily for doggy daycare** I am currently searching for my next job opportunity since being laid off. I have daily available during the work day with overnight care offered if needed. I have a fully fenced, large yard as well as two dogs of my own. The care for your dog would be directly in my home, they wouldn't be outside all day/ignored. If the weather is bad, we may just sit back and watch TV after playtime! My dogs are very friendly and playful but I do have a dachshund who is very small, therefore I can only accept dogs that are 40lbs and under.
About: Hey - I'm Virginia, and I would be honored to help take care of your pet! I provide most services including walks, drop in visits, house pet sitting, boarding, and day care, and I am also happy to discuss unique options. I have a flexible, work from home schedule. I have the most experience with dogs, including formal dog training skills, working at various veterinary clinics and of course, lots of dog walking. I am comfortable with almost all kinds of dogs and can handle reactivity, large dogs/working breeds, energetic personalities, or particular health/social needs. I will keep you well updated during the visit. Please feel free to ask any questions! I am available most days except Sundays and have a flexible schedule. So, I'll be able to keep a close eye on and give attentive care for your pet. I care for pets by looking out on their behalf. I will ask you for information regarding their needs, behaviour, health, routine, and favorite activities. During walks, I keep them away from other people and animals who we don't know. I ensure they are hydrated and not stressed. I also maintain a calm demeanor, and I am very proactive in making decisions for their comfort and safety. For boarding, my house is very quiet, which would be a plus for any dogs who have reactivity.
“Diana was fantastic with accommodating my senior dog, and welcomed her into her loving home. This service is lucky to have her, and I am fortunate to have found her. Highly recommend.”
“We couldn’t have asked for a better experience! Chantel was absolutely amazing from start to finish and went above and beyond to make sure we felt comfortable leaving our fur baby in her care. She kept us updated throughout the day, sending us the sweetest photos and videos, which meant so much to us and gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. It was clear that she genuinely cared and treated our dog like her own. This was hands down the BEST dog-sitting experience we have ever had, and we couldn’t recommend her enough! If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and absolutely wonderful with your pets, look no further. We are already booked to have her dog sit again! 🐶💕”
“Angela is such a great sitter. I left Alex with her more than 12 hours a day without any worry. She replied to my messages within a few minutes and kept me updated with pictures. Thankyou so much for taking such great care of my dog. ❤”
“Fantastic stay with Susan! Was able to book on a short notice for a dog with special needs, and she was well taken care of. We got updates throughout the day and lots of pics. Highly recommend! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

“Brittany was great! Very much appreciated the cute pictures of our dog enjoying the stay and when my dog was excited to see her on her next stay I was sure Mikka enjoyed her time too. My dog is slow to adjust to new people so it was great that Brittany was patient through it used to this behavior.”
“Remi seems to very much enjoy spending time with Rugile and Eimantas! They are an active couple and take her on great adventures hiking and to the water, which she loves. After just a couple visits she happily goes to the door to greet and stay with her new friends. I am very grateful to have found these lovely pet sitters. I am heading to Europe this summer and it is so reassuring to know she will be safe, happy and well cared for.”
“OK … so we’re a little nutty about our pup, but wanted to ensure Leslie knew what she was signing up for! Apparently, Maeve was an angel … settled in and enjoyed her visit. This is the first time - ever - we opted to board Maeve, and the day stay was a success … easing our minds about leaving her for two weeks. After today, we know we made the right decision with Leslie and Richard - a lovely, caring couple. Thank you!”
About: I offer safe, loving in-home boarding in a calm environment with a secure backyard for supervised play.

My home is clean, structured, and designed to be a relaxed home away from home. If you’d like it a little more playful or a little more premium, I can adjust the tone for you 😊 Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I already care for my own two dogs. I plan my mornings and evenings around walks, feeding times, and play sessions, and I’m used to maintaining consistent schedules. I work in a structured way, so I can easily incorporate drop-ins, walks, or overnight care while ensuring each dog receives focused attention and companionship. Safety and comfort are my top priorities. In my home, I maintain a clean, calm, and secure environment where pets are supervised and never left in unsafe situations. I follow each pet’s feeding, walking, and medication instructions carefully and keep routines consistent to reduce stress. In a client’s home, I respect their space, maintain clear communication, and provide updates for peace of mind. I treat every pet as if they were my own — with patience, attentiveness, and genuine care.

About: I have had cats and dogs my entire life and have had my own cats and dogs as an adult on my own as well. I am certified in the Canadian Red Cross Pet First Aid and CPR. I am very familiar with dog and cat communication and behaviours and how to work with both animals to ensure they are cared for properly. I currently have a cat named Rosie and a dog named Annie. Annie is 2 and loves playing with other dogs. She is fully vaccinated and very friendly. She’ll help burn out the energy of other dogs at the dog park no problem! I have also had experience owning other small household pets as well. Since I have the time and experience, I am looking to assist in helping people find care for their pets while they are at work or away from home. I work retail full-time so my schedule is kind of all over the place, but I’ll try to make your requests work if possible! I have a fully fenced backyard and a large doggy door so that your fur baby will be able to use the door if needed and go outside as they wish to play/ use the bathroom. However, I will also monitor them in case they do not use this doggy door (Annie will show them how to use it!). I am certified by the Canadian Red Cross in Pet First Aid and CPR. I will also send hourly updates from 8 am to 8 pm to send a photo or advise on how your dog is doing and what they are up to. when taking dogs out for walks, I will ensure they are kept off of busy streets and only walk them when the pavement is not too hot for their paws/ grass or trail walks only. If taking dogs to the dog park, I will ensure they are monitored closely to ensure they are in a safe and happy environment without aggressive dogs. I will monitor pets eating and pooping and advise if there are any issues. I will ensure they have enough clean drinking water (we used Brita Filtered water). In the event the dog gets muddy or dirty I can bathe them as well.

I also enjoy teaching tricks and basic commands using positive reinforcement.

I’ve loved dogs my entire life and grew up with family dogs and other animals. I also have experience caring for neighbours’ pets and have developed hands-on experience with positive reinforcement and managing some dog reactivity through my own dog. I’m patient, reliable, and passionate about helping high-energy dogs feel happy, fulfilled, and well cared for.

I strive to make your time away as stress free as possible for your pet. By following their regular routine and giving them plenty of attention, affection and excercise.
“Although Nicole and I were not able to complete our days of dog walks, I enjoyed meeting her so much and the one walk my dog had was very successful. We have just been through the worst heat wave I ever remember in Southwestern Ontario, so it was just too hot for my dog and for Nicole to be walking. But we stayed in touch each day and made our decisions together about the extreme weather. I'm only sorry that we did not get to know each other better. I would never hesitate to contact her another time.”

I work from home full-time, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to provide consistent attention and care throughout the day. Your pet won’t be left alone for long periods, and I’ll have plenty of time for walks, playtime, potty breaks, feeding, and lots of companionship. Your pet’s safety and well-being are my top priorities. I provide a calm, clean, and pet-friendly environment where your furry family member will feel comfortable and secure. I’ll carefully follow your pet’s routine, feeding schedule, exercise needs, and any special instructions you provide. I believe in open communication and will keep you updated with regular photos and messages so you can enjoy peace of mind while you’re away. Every pet in my care is treated with patience, kindness, and the same love and respect I’d give my own.
About: I personally own a two-year-old half Mastiff and half Bulldog who is well-trained and well-behaved. Through my experience caring for him, I have developed strong confidence and capability in handling, walking, and managing dogs responsibly. I have full availability and am flexible with scheduling. Regardless of the day or weather conditions—rain or shine—I am fully committed to providing reliable, attentive, and high-quality care for your dogs. I carefully follow all client instructions to ensure their dogs are cared for exactly as requested. As a devoted dog owner, I treat my own dog like family—providing proper nutrition, attentive care, and a safe, loving home.

“Claudia provided excellent care for our two dogs for an evening. She was responsive, friendly and clearly wonderful with our dogs. They came home well rested and happy. If we are in the area again, we will definitely reach out to Claudia!”
“We brought our dog Rae for her first overnight visit with Jennifer and Winston and today picked up a happy and sleepy puppy so we know she had a great time! Jennifer was always quick to respond and sent messages to let us know how she was doing so at no point was I worried and was able to enjoy my night out. Will definitely be bringing Rae back for more play dates and overnight visits in the future. Thank you for everything, Jennifer and Winston!”

“Our dog Lucy had a great 10 day stay with Mike. We received daily feedback including pictures and videos. It was great to know she was safe and happy. She had several walks and went to the bush for exersise. She had lots of playtime with Tao and Finn and other dogs staying at Mike’s and loved the big back yard to roam. Mike and Yummi also gave Lucy cuddles and made her feel loved while we were gone. I would highly recommend Mike if you want your dog to enjoy a vacation while you enjoy yours!”
