“I would definitely recommend her! She took great care of my pup and kept me updated the entire time he was staying with her. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing he was in such good hands. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again!”

“Sara and Rick were amazing dog sitters! They were very friendly, easy to communicate with, and kept me updated throughout the stay. My dog was clearly happy and well taken care of. I’d definitely trust them again!”

“Emma was amazing with my fur babies Teddy is hard to please but he was smiling through the stay if Emma will watch them again I feel comfortable leaving them with Emma.”

“We have a beagle who is two and half years old with some separation anxiety issues. And whenever we leave our dog with Eva and her family, he always come back to us with a better attitude and happiness. I definitely recommend her.”

“This was Oscar’s first stay with Cindy and Marc, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. They took such wonderful care of him, kept me updated with photos and messages, and it was clear he was treated like part of the family. It was so nice to hear that Oscar made them laugh during playtime! When I came to pick him up, he barely paid any attention to me at first and didn’t seem to want to leave. 😄 That’s actually very typical of Oscar whenever he has a great time somewhere, so to me, that was the biggest compliment they could receive. I felt completely at ease while I was away and would not hesitate to leave Oscar with Cindy and Marc again. In fact, Oscar’s next stay with them is already booked, and I know he’ll be excited to come back. I highly recommend Cindy and Marc to anyone looking for kind, caring, and trustworthy pet sitters.”

“Wei-chien provided really good care to our pet -- I knew she was being treated well and felt cared for and that they were doing all they could to make her feel comfortable and to maintain safety. There was also great communication, very friendly and accommodating!”

“Gail is amazing! My 2.5-year-old husky came back happy, well cared for, and completely tired out after his stay. It was clear that her entire family helped take care of him, not just Gail, which made me feel even more comfortable leaving him there. She provided regular photo updates and communicated very well throughout the stay. I would 100% recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable dog sitter.”

“Priyanka was amazing! We did a meet and greet beforehand to make sure everyone felt comfortable which put my mind at ease. She provided updates throughout Hudson’s stay so I knew how he was adjusting. It was my first time using Rover and Hudson’s first time staying away from home. He was nervous in a new environment and Priyanka went above and beyond to ensure he felt comfortable and ate his meals. Priyanka also has an active walk schedule so his exercise needs were met and consistent with his normal routine. I felt very comfortable my dog was in good hands and will definitely book again in the future. Thanks again! :)”

“Fantastic experience! Onyx was very well taken care of and loved his long walk at the park. Jayson was professional, super responsive on the app, and easy to coordinate with. We highly recommend him and will definitely book again!”

“My girls Roxy (senior Great Dane) and Maisie (young Goldendoodle) stayed with Madison and Jeffrey for a week; they both have different types of personalities and care requirements and they thrived in their home! It was obvious that my girls were happy and healthy as seen by daily updates and I had no worries about them at all while I was gone. Would not hesitate to have them as pet sitters again; wonderful with the dogs and gave me peace of mind! Highly recommend!”
“Lexie had a wonderful visit with Sabrina and her family! She was fed, walked, cuddled and belly-rubbed to her heart’s content! Would definitely book with Sabrina again! Thank you ❤️🐶”

“My dog(Willow) had a lot of fun and great time with Randi and her family for two weeks(Christmas and holiday season) while we were away. I am very thankful that Willow stayed with Randi. Thank you very much, Randi! We will see you soon or later for Willow again.”

“Our dog Sunny has been going to Ashley's for day care for several months and recently boarded with her for a couple of nights. We couldn't be happier! Ashley is super reliable, accommodating, and very understanding of our anxious pup. She's a true dog whisperer! Thank you so much, Ashley! Your help has been a game changer for us and we so appreciate everything you do.”

“Saksham and his wife took great care of Coco! He was happy and comfortable the whole time. They kept in touch with regular updates and photos, and followed all instructions perfectly. I’ll definitely contact them again in the future!”

“Amazing dog sitters, sent us constant pictures of our puppy, reassuring us he was okay and having a great time! Their setup is amazing, perfect for dogs of all sizes. They gave our puppy an adorable crochet collar!”

“Jessica and her husband were incredible with my little guy. Our dog can be super high maintenance but he seems to feel right at home with the both of them. They will certainly be our preferred sitter for our little guy!”


“RayRay always has the most amazing time with Melissa, he comes home tired and happy after their adventures. Melissa is lovely to work with, very professional and accommodating, someone I know I can count on when RayRay needs a safe space for a day or a weekend. Highly recommend!”

“I had the pleasure of having Finn take care of my cat while I was away for a week, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. She took care of my cat with so much love and attention, just like it was her own. Every day, she sent us pictures and videos, which really gave us peace of mind and made us smile. I came home to a happy, relaxed kitty and a spotless home. It gave me real peace of mind knowing my pet was in such caring hands. Highly recommended!”


“Melissa is an absolute asset to my busy travellers lifestyle. As someone who goes on 3-4 trips a year, I’m so happy that I found Melissa. She’s very personable, very flexible with times, and great with my fur babies. She regularly does drop in visits for my cats and recently has started boarding my dog for a few day trips that I’ve gone on. She goes above an beyond what any other pet sitter would do. She told me that my cat food was getting low and when I asked she even picked some up for me! I would highly recommend her and completely trust her with my little cuties. I’m so happy to have someone reliable to watch them. Thanks for everything girl”

“Michelle was fantastic. My partner and I were so worried about letting a stranger into our home, but felt instantly at ease after meeting Michelle. She was so professional, and kind and I knew my cats were in good hands. My cats seemed to really enjoy their time with Michelle as well, who played with them every visit. Everything was in perfect order upon our return from vacation. Would 100% re-book with her again.”

“Sarah was very attentive and was great with communication. We are grateful we had cell service while away from home to answer some questions and work with Sarah to make sure the cats got the best care. She was very thorough in ensuring she followed the instructions we had given her correctly.”


“Can't recommend Shannon highly enough! She took excellent care of our 2 cats for a week, and even our extremely skittish cat was eating out of her hand by the end. Her detailed updates and photos were great. Would absolutely use her again.”

“Wei-Chien was an amazing, top notch sitter who went above and beyond for our kitties. She provided daily updates with pictures and videos and always provided an update on what she did with the cats and how they were doing. We knew our cats were in good hands with Wei-Chien - even when there were messes. We would highly recommend her services and we plan on hiring her again in the future. Thank you Wei-Chien for your amazing work!”


“I have nothing but positive things to say about Piper. She was great with both of our cats while we were away and always gave an informative updates after their visits. Both of our cats are particular in their own way and Piper easily adapted to their needs. 10s across the board!”

“I booked Olivia for a drop in visit to check on my cat Finnick while I was out of town for the evening, and she was great! She sent me an update with photos, gave him some love and playtime, and even scooped the litter box, which I really appreciated. Everything went smoothly, and it was a huge relief knowing he was being looked after as I’m always a little anxious to leave my cat alone for a long period of time. Olivia put my mind at ease. I’d definitely book her again!”


“Aparna was amazing with our pet Smokey. She kept my cat engaged and also fed him on time as he is very particular about his food time and choices. They both bonded so well and she made feel Smokey safe. I would definately recommend her and would reach out again for Smokey.”

“Sara was great with my kitties! They were well fed, and their litter boxes were in good condition when we came back home. Sara also sent us cute photos of our cats after every visit, which gave us peace of mind especially on days where we felt homesick.”


“Victoria has been extraordinary in taking care of our two cats while we were out of the country for an extended period of time. We really appreciate her commitment and attention to detail. She has also been incredibly flexible and accommodating when an emergency situation came up, and we are so grateful she was there to help. We will definitely book with her again!”

About: NOTE: Times I am available are listed under "Availability" (left side of screen on computer + in the middle of this section on phone) I treat every pet like they’re my own, taking the time to understand their personality, routine, and what helps them feel safe and comfortable.

I’m especially patient with shy or anxious pets and focus on building trust at their pace, while also being able to keep up with energetic puppies who need structure, play, and consistency. I pay close attention to behavior and body language, which helps me respond quickly to anything your pet might need. I’m also very mindful of routines, whether that’s feeding schedules, walks, medications, or just maintaining the environment your pet is used to. I’ll always keep you updated so you feel confident and reassured while you’re away. My goal is to make sure your pet feels relaxed, understood, and genuinely cared for the entire time. ********************* **Schedule updated weekly** Available ANYTIME on: Monday (29th), Thursday (2nd), Monday (6th) Available anytime BEFORE 4:00PM on: Tuesday (30th), Friday (3rd), Saturday (4th) NOT Available: Wednesday (1st), Sunday (5th), Tuesday (7th) (As Rover is not showing the times I am available, I will update this section of my profile every week.) ********************* When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as consistent and stress-free as possible. I follow all instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, and any specific preferences your pet has.

I also respect your home and keep everything clean and tidy while you’re away. I’m attentive, reliable, and will keep you updated regularly so you feel confident your pet and home are in good hands.

“Another wonderful visit from Daniela after my cat had just had surgery. She was very careful and ensured he received his pain meds on time as I had to go out of town for a night shortly after. She’s absolutely wonderful, I’m so happy I came across her profile last summer. She’s my go to for my little senior fur babies whenever they need a check in, or any time my pup needs a walk! Thanks again Daniela for a wonderful experience - my fur babies adore you!”


“Lizzy cares SO much for our little Aura - I couldn't recommend someone more to look after your furry friends. She gave detailed updates, many photos, and truly loves and cares for your pet as her own!”

“Wenge was great with my dog Nutmeg. She was very quick to respond to my questions and gave me several updates about how his day was going. We will definitely book with her again!”

“Ruomai always takes wonderful care of our Millie! Super attentive, and provides some videos and pictures throughout the day so we know she is doing well. Always gets her to eat when she is kept through meal times, and makes sure she has a comfortable social experience as well. Millie is always just as excited to come here as she is to come home!

About: I have had pets since I was a small child, mostly dogs and cats but I grew up on a farm so have been around all kinds of animals. I have two families that contact me all the time to watch their pets when they are on vacation and we love to have them join us. I have 5 children who adore animals and who are there to lend a helping hand as well as their space to be a great companion to your pets! I work from home so I am always home with my kids and pets, your pets will never be lonely. They will be so loved and cared for, usually by the second time here they walk right in without even looking back! We will always treat your babies like we treat our own :) I’ve worked from home for many years and will continue to do so for many years to come. I am home 95% of the time throughout the week and on weekends. This leaves me very available to care for and accompany your pet. I have a fully fenced yard, we have lots of space inside and out and love to go on walks. I have 2 dogs that get along well with others and can keep your pets company. My kids will also be there to play with, care for, and show love to your pets everyday.
“This is the first time we used Sara for doggy daycare. Our pup came home very tired and content. It appears that our pup had a great day out with Sara and the other daycare doggies. Sara was very accommodating and pleasant and we will be using her services again!”

“Ashley is actually the best!! I’ve requested daycare on a couple occasions with super short notice and she’s always happy to help- Even keeping my pup a little longer on the days where I work late. Would absolutely recommend! ❤️”

About: I have had dogs in my home since I was a young child. My most recent pup was a French Bulldog, who now resides with my parents. I am confident in delivering basic puppy training including walking on a leash, house commands, and behavior. I am an active person who really enjoys hikes and long walks, so if you have a high-energy dog that needs stimulation I am the guy! I work full-time from home and can accommodate dog-sitting, drop-ins, or walks during the day between Mon-Fri. My weekends are available for more sitting, walks, and drop-ins. I can provide boarding at any time! My partner and I do not own any pets but have a no-clutter house that is perfect for a dog of any size. I have a fenced yard (albeit small), end unit townhouse with a larger fenced common area for play and bathroom breaks. In addition, we back onto a larger trail network for lengthy walks.
“Laila loves going here. Plays so well with her dog Link. Great backyard for them to run around in. Priyanka is very responsive and I get lots of updates throughout the day.”

“I took Lucy for a meet and greet the day before. Lucy could hardly wait to get in Brittany’s door the next morning. She had a lovely day with Brittany, a completely reliable dog sitter.”

“We had a great experience! Wei was very communicative and kept us updated with pictures throughout the night, which gave us so much peace of mind. They were also super accommodating with timing, which made things so much easier for us. Chili had an absolute blast and came home happy and tired :)”


About: Hi! I'm Laura-reliable, friendly and great with pets big and small. I offer walks, drop-ins and overnight care with lots of cuddles, updates and fun activities tailored to your pet's routine. I have cared for dogs, cats, rabbits, hamsters, and even a snapping turtle! Experienced with medication, senior dogs, and shy-bies. Let's chat! I am a freelance writer and I love taking lots of breaks from the desk for cuddles and/or long walks. I am also always happy to go to the dog park if your pet prefers a good run and socialization I have a fenced backyard and live just across the road from Steckle Woods which is full of great walking trails. I have a big friendly Labradoodle named Cooper and I am a mother of two daughters.
“Eva and her family have been wonderful with taking care of my 5 month old puppy! They are kind, communicative, and they clearly loves pets! My dog has been very relaxed and comfortable in their home and enjoys regular walks and time outside. I have appreciated regular photos and updates about his day. Would recommend!”

“I am so thankful to Crystal for taking such great care of Ember, who came home happy and ready for a big nap! This was the first time I’ve left Ember with someone outside of the family, and Crystal's updates were great and very reassuring - taking away any anxiety I might have had. She also handled a rainy-day drop-off with a half-wet dog very kindly which I am extra grateful for. I would definitely trust Crystal with Ember again!”

About: I’ve taken care of family dog and neighbors dog for 5 years. I have experience taking care of small to medium dogs and can train basic skills for puppies. My job has a flexible hours schedule and I can work from home. Therefore I can accommodate any hours needed by the customer and their dog. I do not have pets in my home currently, so the client’s dog will be the only pet in the home. I’ll make sure their dogs feel comfortable here.
“Cindy and Marc were both very calm and friendly. Our puppy spent good time playing with another dog at their place. The photo and video updates shared by Cindy were very helpful. We would definitely have them again for our furbaby :)”

“My pup had a great day! Thanks for treating him well and giving him the most amount of walks and attention! Will definitely book with Sarah again! She even left a little surprise in my bag, cookies and a photo of my baby! Such a cute touch!”

About: Hello! My name is Olivia, and I am an experienced dog owner who runs my own training, grooming and pet care business in New Hamburg called Canine Community Corner. We offer a wide variety of services, such as boarding, walking, drop in visits, bath and brush, and nail trim services. We also carry a wide variety of pet care products in our storefront, most of which are made by other local small businesses. In my home, I have 2 dogs and a cat. In the past I have also had a bearded dragon, a chameleon, hamster, rats, and mice, so I am experienced with a wide range of animals. During their stay with us, your pet will receive flexible 5 star care, depending on their needs and preferences. My dogs and I are avid hikers, and often spend our free time out on walks through the forest. If your dog prefers to stay home, we are also able to provide a calm and quiet environment for the duration of their stay. I also have a wide variety of actives they can do at my facility in the case of bad weather, including a treadmill, obstacle training, and scent work activities. My goal and belief as a pet professional is that services should be catered to each specific client, and not a one size fits all model. Because of the size of our living space and the nature of my job/business, I do require that any dogs coming to stay with us are crate trained and that their crate is brought with them. This not only allows for a smooth and stress-free stay, but provides your dog with a familiar safe space in a new environment. If your dog has any sort of separation anxiety, please let me know beforehand so I can plan accordingly. Feel free to message me with questions at any time! Because I am a small business owner, I have a very flexible schedule that can change depending on the needs of my clients - whether that’s in a drop-in, walk, or boarding service. Our canine clients often spend the day with my at my storefront, then come hone with me in the evenings to hang out until bedtime. Depending on the dog and the preferences of the owner, they may also participate in group classes as a demo dog to help show the exercises being taught. I am currently living in an apartment that opens outside to a large yard. Dogs are kept on a long line, unless otherwise specified by their owner that they are able to be reliably off leash. Even with owner permission, I typically avoid any off leash time that could potentially lead to the dog escaping or getting injured. I also have a very structured system in my home, where I introduce dogs through a parallel pack walk before letting them interact either indoors or outdoors. I also spend a significant amount of time working on calm and impulse control, and avoid letting pets in my home get overly excited.
About: Animals are often the highlights of my day to day. I recently retired from my corporate career so I can wake up knowing I can do what brings me (and animals) joy full time. I’ve grown up around Beagles, the first being rescued when I was a child, recently passing at the age of 18. We then rescued a much older Beagle that lives his best life at my Grandma’s, as well as my sister who brought a baby Beagle home 😊 I’m comfortable around animals big or small (worked with pitty/hound mixes down to a chihuahua). With all the running around, I do enjoy lounging with my 2 cats at home. I recently switched over from my full time career, so I can be around animals more often! My schedule is very flexible through the weekdays. Weekends being flexible but require a heads up 😊 Regardless where your pet is being taken care of, they will be met with love, empathy and respect. Ensuring their needs (walks in nature or city, food, playtime, naps) are consistently met.

“Michelle is the dog whisperer! Her way with my two big dogs is expert to say the least. My dogs get more excited when Michelle arrives than they do when I come home. She is also a pleasure and easy to communicate with. Michelle has been extremely accommodating and quick to respond to all my questions, comments, and requests. I'm so happy to have met Michelle and my dogs definitely are too. Michelles been walking my dogs for 3 months. And my mind is made up, I've found my long term dog walker. Book with Michelle and I don't think you'll be disappointed.”

About: I've work in multiple animal hospitals taking care of range of ages of pets from senior to barely a week old kittens. I understand the gentle nature you must have when taking care of your fur babies. My neighbor has a beautiful 16 year old cat that I take care of and at times he can have some accidents and I always do my best not just cleaning up the mess but also bathing him to make sure he stays nice a clean. Family friends have put their trust in me for taking care of their senior German shepherd while on vacation making sure she got the attention and the proper exercise while away. Each pet is unique and have their own special requirements, some need to run for miles, other's are couch potatoes and I'm capable of meeting either needs. Whether it's a nice jog or stroll, learning/reinforcing commands. I also understand that some dogs can be anxious and need time to warm up to knew people or have routines that help ease them. With my work in clinics I experienced working one on one with anxious rescues and learned how to work with them to help making them more comfortable with strangers in the clinic. At the end of the day I want to give you pets the best experience I can and treat them like my own while they're in my care. I have a very flexible schedule at the moment giving me plenty of time to take care of your fur babies, even evening too rain or shine. I'd first want to know if there's and house rules for your pets (no siting on the couch, certain areas of the house that could be off limits, timing for if they go in a crate at night). I'd want to spend as much time as I could with them getting their energy out or if their more the type to lay with you on the couch. I would always amke sure their water bowl stays full and make sure they dont get into anything while you're gone. I'd also could take garbage and recycling out if needed while you're away.
“Sara did a great job with Rocco! Rocco is a reactive rescue dog who takes time to warm up to new people and booked Sara at the last minute in an emergency situation to walk Rocco and everything went smoothly.”

“Alex has been absolutely great with our 7 year old pit heeler, Moon. Normally, Moon takes awhile to warm up to strangers, but with Alex, there was a bond from Day 1. Alex is fantastic: reliable and on time - rain, snow or shine, courteous and goes above and beyond in their daily 1 hour walks. So happy to find you, Alex! Many thanks to you, from Moon’s family! ❤️”

About: I always loved being around the pups, I feel they are my stress busters. Whenever I'm with them I feel happier and always loved playing with them since my childhood. I also worked with agencies where I used to take them to walking or dog sitting and also I have taken care of my friend's dogs and took them walking and played with them in the park. I'm a student and I have plenty of time on the weekends and I'm also free on the weekends to play and walk your pups. I have a fenced backyard for the dogs to play if they need and I'll be with them to play and take care of them so that you can be stress free.

About: Hi, I’m Jenelle! I have spent my life caring for and most importantly, loving animals. I have surrounded myself with animals my entire life and truly believe pets are what make a family whole. Personally, I have had experience with dogs, cats, birds (lovebirds, budgies), rabbits, and fish. Currently, my family consists of myself and my fiance, and our 6-year-old Golden Doodle, Beau. Through both personal and professional experiences, and as a volunteer with the Guelph Humane Society, I have gained plenty of experience with a variety of animals and have experience walking, handling, and socializing with dogs of all breeds, sizes, backgrounds, personalities, and needs. I am very active and enjoy long hikes (or runs) on our city's many wonderful trails and have a flexible work schedule and therefore, am available on some weekdays as well as weekends. No matter the animal, I look forward to getting to know you and the fur baby that makes your family whole! My job is hybrid, with my office close by. As long as I know your needs in advance, I can adjust my work schedule around your pet. I have a fenced-in yard and my partner and I have a 3-bedroom house - 2 of the rooms are occupied by us and our furry family, but your pets can have their own quiet room if needed.

I'm an extremely humble person and have a huge heart for animals, especially being from an Environmental Program. To top my profile off, I am very experienced in fostering dogs! I am used to all behaviours, breeds and ages as well as what it takes to ACTUALLY care for an animal. If you have any more questions, please don't hesitate to ask! Currently, I am available 7 days a week! I am able to walk/care for your pet in the wee hours of the morning, after work and of course, cuddled up in my bed overnight. I am a very quiet person with an immense respect for pet parents and their homes. That being said, if your pet has anxiety or any trust issues with men, women, other animals or loud noises, rest assured, they are 100% safe in your home and on the streets from all of those things.
“Rayane was amazing! This was my first time using Rover AND having someone walk my dog, so I was nervous. We met the day before, and I was immediately at ease with Rayane. She asked lots of questions and gave Nori lots of love and pets. She kept me updated as she walked Nori, and sent lots of pictures after the walk. I had an excellent first experience with Rayane and will definitely book her again.”

“Jayson was wonderful to work with. I hired him to walk my dog while I was out of town on business, and from the start, he was responsive, professional, and easy to communicate with. His prompt replies and clear communication gave me confidence that my dog was in good hands. While I was away, Jayson sent regular text updates and photos, which provided great peace of mind. Knowing how my dog was doing each day made it much easier to focus on my trip without worrying. I truly appreciated his reliability, consistency, and thoughtful updates throughout my time away. I would not hesitate to recommend Jayson to anyone looking for a dependable and caring dog walker. His excellent service made all the difference, and I was able to travel knowing my dog was well cared for.”

“Emma was amazing with my fur babies Teddy is hard to please but he was smiling through the stay if Emma will watch them again I feel comfortable leaving them with Emma.”

“Wei-chien provided really good care to our pet -- I knew she was being treated well and felt cared for and that they were doing all they could to make her feel comfortable and to maintain safety. There was also great communication, very friendly and accommodating!”

“Gail is amazing! My 2.5-year-old husky came back happy, well cared for, and completely tired out after his stay. It was clear that her entire family helped take care of him, not just Gail, which made me feel even more comfortable leaving him there. She provided regular photo updates and communicated very well throughout the stay. I would 100% recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable dog sitter.”

“Priyanka was amazing! We did a meet and greet beforehand to make sure everyone felt comfortable which put my mind at ease. She provided updates throughout Hudson’s stay so I knew how he was adjusting. It was my first time using Rover and Hudson’s first time staying away from home. He was nervous in a new environment and Priyanka went above and beyond to ensure he felt comfortable and ate his meals. Priyanka also has an active walk schedule so his exercise needs were met and consistent with his normal routine. I felt very comfortable my dog was in good hands and will definitely book again in the future. Thanks again! :)”

“My girls Roxy (senior Great Dane) and Maisie (young Goldendoodle) stayed with Madison and Jeffrey for a week; they both have different types of personalities and care requirements and they thrived in their home! It was obvious that my girls were happy and healthy as seen by daily updates and I had no worries about them at all while I was gone. Would not hesitate to have them as pet sitters again; wonderful with the dogs and gave me peace of mind! Highly recommend!”
“Our dog Sunny has been going to Ashley's for day care for several months and recently boarded with her for a couple of nights. We couldn't be happier! Ashley is super reliable, accommodating, and very understanding of our anxious pup. She's a true dog whisperer! Thank you so much, Ashley! Your help has been a game changer for us and we so appreciate everything you do.”

“Saksham and his wife took great care of Coco! He was happy and comfortable the whole time. They kept in touch with regular updates and photos, and followed all instructions perfectly. I’ll definitely contact them again in the future!”

“Jessica and her husband were incredible with my little guy. Our dog can be super high maintenance but he seems to feel right at home with the both of them. They will certainly be our preferred sitter for our little guy!”


“RayRay always has the most amazing time with Melissa, he comes home tired and happy after their adventures. Melissa is lovely to work with, very professional and accommodating, someone I know I can count on when RayRay needs a safe space for a day or a weekend. Highly recommend!”

“Alexandra took amazing care of our dog over the weekend and we couldn’t be happier with the experience. She kept us updated with lots of pictures and walks, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Our dog came home happy, relaxed, and clearly very well cared for. You can tell Alexandra genuinely loves animals and treats them like her own. Communication was great from start to finish, and she made the whole process feel easy and comfortable. We would absolutely trust her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring dog sitter!”

“I left my pup with them for 3 days this time and he was so happy! Lots of updates and friends for him to play with. He came home nice and tired, I will be sure to reach out again next time I need someone to watch!”


“We had a great experience with Carrie. She took care of our 1.5 year old dog for 10 days and we were very confident that he was in good hands. We could tell from the photos and videos that he was happy and had fun playing in the yard. Thanks Carrie!”

“Can’t Thank her enough for her gentle care and warmth with my buddy, Berny…!!! She took utmost care of him whilst I was away for urgent trip, timely notifications and updates, which were perfect to see him enjoying…. THANK YOU AGAIN…!!”
