“I honestly don’t even know where to start with how incredible this experience was. I found this dog sitter last minute on Rover, and from the very first message, they went above and beyond in every possible way. I have two very high-energy dogs, and leaving them is never something I take lightly—but she, her husband, and their kids made me feel completely at ease. Not only were they unbelievably accommodating and flexible, but they were also so genuinely kind, warm, and generous. They treated my dogs like part of their family. It wasn’t just “watching” them—they were loved, played with, and cared for in a way that honestly exceeded anything I could have hoped for. Her kids adored my dogs, and it showed in every update and every interaction. What truly stood out was how much they went out of their way to help me. They kept my dogs longer than expected without charging anything extra, just out of kindness. That level of generosity is rare, and it meant so much to me. If you’re looking for someone you can fully trust with your pets—someone who will treat them like their own—I cannot recommend Justin, Kristen and her family enough. I am beyond grateful to have found them. Thank you again for everything—you are truly amazing. ❤️”

“Excellent services from Veronica! Very kind and caring person, took amazing care of Pekoe, our one-eyed four-toothed rescue dog! We got a daily update and photo while we were out of the country to show our perpetually sleeping potato was happy and healthy!! It really eased our minds and hearts while we were away! Pekoe is a timid little creature that does not care for most people, usually keeping her distance and sleeping in her box, but was quickly accepting of Veronica, sleeping with her on the couch and overnight! It was quite amazing to see, and brought us great ease!”

About: I grew up with pets, have owned my own dogs and cats and have been dog sitting for the last few years! I see these animals not just as pets, but as peoples' family members. Who need someone to care for them just as their owners would - while they are missing their people! I'm happy to feed, brush, walk, play and snuggle! I work 5 days a week, 3 of which are from home. Generally within any day I have quite a bit of flexibility to set my schedule and do what needs to be done! My yard is not fully fenced, however I'm happy to take dogs out for walks as needed or supervise in the yard, on a leash or not.

“It’s quite difficult for me and I believe many others, to leave a much loved dog in the care of anyone I do not know very well. Michaela’s calm approach seemed to immediately let my puppy relax and happily go with her. Seeing my Cali relax was definitely reassuring. Michaela also sent me a photo of Cali probably 30 minutes after I left, further convincing me that I had made a good decision in my choice of sitter! All around a very positive experience. I wouldn’t hesitate to choose Michaela again, to take care of Cali.”

It was clear that Maple was in loving, capable hands - he was happy, relaxed, and well cared for when we returned. We really appreciated the regular updates and photos, which gave us total peace of mind while we were away. Kristen and Shady truly went above and beyond, and it’s not easy to trust someone with your dog, but they exceeded our expectations. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for kind, responsible, and attentive dog sitters! Thank you so much!”

About: I’ve had tons of different animals growing up. Recently had to euthanize my 15 year old family boarder collie. Also an English bull dog who passed away at two due to breathing issues. I miss having a dog around, however am not ready to adopt my own just yet. Would love to have them over here and there. I Absolutely adore dogs! I currently work from home so I am always here to take care and love your animal! Will walk, feed, cuddle them and if permitted, take them where me and my family go, weather it’s a walk to the park or beach! We will love and care for your pet as our own. We have a backyard for them to pee/poo as well as a pool if they can swim. Will go on walks! I have two children who adore animals who are very gentle so we will all be spending lots of time together. Dog must be kid friendly though.

About: Your pets deserve a place where they can feel safe, relaxed, and genuinely loved while you’re away—and that’s exactly what I provide. As a lifelong dog lover, devoted dog mama, and cat enthusiast, I offer a warm, welcoming, smoke-freehome where every furry guest is treated like family. Our home features cozy indoor spaces and a spacious yard perfect for playtime, sunbathing, or quiet exploration.
Because I work remotely, I’m home throughout the day and able to give pets plenty of attention, supervision, and companionship. Whether your pet enjoys cuddling, playing, or simply having a calm presence nearby, they’ll always feel supported and never alone. I also offer dog walking services, daytime care, and even 24-hour care when needed, giving you complete peace of mind no matter your schedule.
I’m passionate about nature and love walking forest paths and scenic trails, offering dogs enriching outdoor adventures tailored to their personality and pace. From energetic hikes to slow, sniff-filled strolls, every outing is meant to make them happy, fulfilled, and connected to the outdoors.
Your pet will also enjoy the gentle friendship of my sweet dog, Bella, who loves having company. And they’ll be welcomed with open arms by my two kids, both over the age of 10, who are devoted animal lovers. My son dreams of becoming a veterinarian, following in the footsteps of his grandfather—my dad—who was a vet.
With a nurturing family environment, plenty of space, constant companionship, and a deep love for animals, your pet will feel comfortable, cherished, and truly at home. 🐾 I currently work remotely running a coaching business as well as teaching fitness classes digitally. I have time to dedicate to spending good quality time with animals! Our home is on 8 acres surrounded by forest - we spend a lot of time trail walking - I like to do a minimum of 5km when I go for a walk, but I cater to the dogs needs first and foremost! In winter I love to cut trails while snowshoeing- my girl Bella loves to come with me and explore!

About: Dogs have always brought so much joy into my life! I love spending time with them going for walks, playing fetch, or just relaxing together. I’ve cared for pups of all ages and sizes, and I always make sure they get plenty of love, exercise, and attention so they’re happy and relaxed until you’re back home. Working from home allows me to spend plenty of time with the pets I care for. They’re never left alone for long, and I’m always around to make sure they’re happy, fed, and safe. Whether you need someone for a quick visit or extended boarding, I can adjust my schedule to fit your needs. I’ve spent years caring for family pets, and babysitting friends’ dogs and cats. I genuinely love being around animals and find so much joy in their companionship and unconditional love. My experience ranges from playful pups to mellow seniors, and I always treat every pet like my own. Whether it’s a walk, playtime, or quiet cuddles, I’m here to make your pet feel safe, loved, and happy.

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover living in Stittsville, Ottawa, and dogs have truly been my passion for as long as I can remember. I share my home with my own three well-socialized, crate-trained dogs and work mostly from home, so your pup will have plenty of attention, company, and care throughout the day. I have a large, fully fenced, pie-shaped yard that’s safe, clean, and perfect for playtime. Dogs in my care are treated like family — they’re welcome to sleep freely in my bedroom with my dogs, have cozy pet beds, and follow a calm, loving routine. If your dog prefers or needs a crate, you’re welcome to bring one, and I’m happy to help with crate time when I step out. I know how hard it can be to leave your pet, especially if you feel anxious about their care. My goal is to give you total peace of mind knowing your dog is safe, happy, and genuinely having a great time. Caring for dogs isn’t just something I do — it’s who I am, and one day it’s my retirement dream. For now, I’m thrilled to offer a loving home-away-from-home for your pup. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your dog like their own, feel free to reach out — I’d love to chat! I work 100% remote from home. I just go in and out for meetings and certain scheduling, but I’m rarely out of the house for longer than a few hours. Basically, aside from my job, dogs are my first priority and get the current attention. They need hourly if not minute by minute. I treat others dogs like I treat my own with love, warmth, and caring. I exercise the dogs daily and give them what they need to make sure that they’re tired out and before I ever leave the house for an hour or two if I need to, I make sure that they are let outside and that they’ve done their business so they don’t have to wait for me to get back.

About: As an animal lover who grew up on a farm, I have taken care of pets from a young age. I’ve previously worked in the pet industry, supporting pet owners and coordinating events with different local rescue organizations. Neighbours, friends and family have relied on me to, walk, feed and bathe their pets, as well as watching their homes while they travel. I am currently working part-time, so I will have plenty of time to care and play with your pets! My schedule allows me to have flexibility on both weekdays and weekends! I take great pride in creating a safe and structured space for each, unique pet while they are in my care. I understand the importance of routine for pets, while pet parents are away, to help ensure overall care, comfort and safety. I understand that because each pet is different, that each care plan will vary, depending on the pets needs.

About: We're in the process of opening a kennel on our 27 acre homestead, until then, we're here on Rover! Let us give your pets an enriching experience while you're away, and you peace of mind that they are in not one but two sets of good hands. Our dog Styx loves all pets, big and small, but we also have experience and infrastructure for some personal space if your pet takes a little longer to warm up or has special needs. We are currently building a kennel on our wooded retreat, and in the meantime, our home is open! We are home full-time and spend our days outside tending to the property, bringing your pets along, with lots of water and indoor breaks. We have a fenced yard and the house is able to be segmented off depending on the needs (puppy pen, cat area with dogs, cat area dog free, day crated, whatever your comfort is.

About: Hi! I'm Angela. I'm 26 years old and I'm a student at Carleton University. I love animals very much (especially dogs and cats) and I look forward to taking care of your pet(s)! I'm located in the Nepean area of Ottawa and I am able to relocate for your pet’s needs. I was born and raised in Toronto where I grew up with several dogs in my lifetime. Right now, I have an 11 year old cockapoo named Zeus (he doesn't live with me) so I have tons of experience with dogs and their many, many needs! Zeus is also a senior citizen with hip dysplasia, so I understand the importance of patience and gentleness when it comes to caring for senior dogs and cats. I take pride in making sure that the dogs I'm taking care of are always walked, exercised, fed/well-rested. All dogs are welcome! I provide basically all services offered on Rover. As a settler in Ottawa, I recognize that I am on the traditional, unceded, and unsurrendered territory of the Anishinaabe Algonquin Nation. I offer free compassionate care for Indigenous dog owners, and discounted rates for low-income or disabled dog owners. Ask me about the free services I provide! (E.g bathing, playtime, etc). I look forward to caring for your lovely pet(s)<3. I'm currently a part-time student at Carleton University. I'm in 2 classes - one on Monday, and one on Wednesday. Other than that, my availability is quite open. I accept same-day bookings. I have a fenced yard and a big schoolyard very close to where I live - I'm extremely active, so frequent walks are my speciality. Younger dogs or highly active dogs are more than welcome. Senior dogs, or doggies who require more frequent potty breaks are also more than welcome.

About: I’ve been watching dogs for 7 years now. I love all types of dogs. But the first dog I ever got close to was a pitbull. He was the first over night dog sit/house sit. I ever did, the couple would travel often due to work. So I would dog sit about 2/3 times a week. I did that for about two years and gained a lot of experience with dogs due to that job. I also find dog walking a great way to stay healthy and active with out it feeling like a work out. I’ve enjoyed dogging sitting ever since I started and don’t plan to stop. So for now that I can’t get a dog of my own. I’ll just watch yours ! Just send me a message and ill send you my number so we can set up a meeting. Price is negotiable. I’m currently a full time student online so I’m looking to make cash while staying active and happy and what a better way than to pet sit. I’ve loved animal since I was a little girl so being around them always brings me joy and as you’ll see they take a liking to me as well. Even the pups you think won’t, always end up loving me as well. I live in a very spacious one bedroom apartment with a balcony alone so they always feel free and nice fresh air. There is a courtyard in my building that is dog friendly and three dog parks near my building as well. So they will always have room to run and be themselves. I am a full time online student so I would be spending my whole day with your pups. They would always be in great care with love and attention. I have a nice courtyard in my building that’s pet friendly and they can play and I also have three dog parks in my area. Where they can run around and meet new pups if allowed I am currently an full time online student so I would be with your pup the whole day. If you’d like to hear my specific daily routine let me know 😊 I usually stick to the routine a parent gives me so they can feel as comfortable as possible while staying with me or if I’m staying in their home.

“I honestly don’t even know where to start with how incredible this experience was. I found this dog sitter last minute on Rover, and from the very first message, they went above and beyond in every possible way. I have two very high-energy dogs, and leaving them is never something I take lightly—but she, her husband, and their kids made me feel completely at ease. Not only were they unbelievably accommodating and flexible, but they were also so genuinely kind, warm, and generous. They treated my dogs like part of their family. It wasn’t just “watching” them—they were loved, played with, and cared for in a way that honestly exceeded anything I could have hoped for. Her kids adored my dogs, and it showed in every update and every interaction. What truly stood out was how much they went out of their way to help me. They kept my dogs longer than expected without charging anything extra, just out of kindness. That level of generosity is rare, and it meant so much to me. If you’re looking for someone you can fully trust with your pets—someone who will treat them like their own—I cannot recommend Justin, Kristen and her family enough. I am beyond grateful to have found them. Thank you again for everything—you are truly amazing. ❤️”

Freyja was comfortable from the first minutes and Trudy provided us with a few updates and pics during her stay. We picked up a happy girl and will be using again and highly recommending Trudy to all our fur baby friends. Thanks so very much Trudy. You gave us so much piece of mind while we attended our daughters wedding. Thank you Thank you!!! ❤️”

“Excellent services from Veronica! Very kind and caring person, took amazing care of Pekoe, our one-eyed four-toothed rescue dog! We got a daily update and photo while we were out of the country to show our perpetually sleeping potato was happy and healthy!! It really eased our minds and hearts while we were away! Pekoe is a timid little creature that does not care for most people, usually keeping her distance and sleeping in her box, but was quickly accepting of Veronica, sleeping with her on the couch and overnight! It was quite amazing to see, and brought us great ease!”

“It’s quite difficult for me and I believe many others, to leave a much loved dog in the care of anyone I do not know very well. Michaela’s calm approach seemed to immediately let my puppy relax and happily go with her. Seeing my Cali relax was definitely reassuring. Michaela also sent me a photo of Cali probably 30 minutes after I left, further convincing me that I had made a good decision in my choice of sitter! All around a very positive experience. I wouldn’t hesitate to choose Michaela again, to take care of Cali.”

It was clear that Maple was in loving, capable hands - he was happy, relaxed, and well cared for when we returned. We really appreciated the regular updates and photos, which gave us total peace of mind while we were away. Kristen and Shady truly went above and beyond, and it’s not easy to trust someone with your dog, but they exceeded our expectations. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for kind, responsible, and attentive dog sitters! Thank you so much!”

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for over 11 years, starting with my first Siberian Husky, who taught me everything about patience, consistency, and unconditional love. For the past 8 years, I’ve been training and competing in dog agility, and I currently share my life with three Border Collies who are active competitors, plus my beloved retired Husky. I understand dogs of all ages, breeds, and energy levels — from high-drive working dogs to seniors needing a slower pace. My experience in agility means I’m skilled at reading canine body language, providing mental stimulation, and keeping dogs both safe and happy. Whether your pup needs a structured walk, playtime, or just some extra love while you’re away, I’ll treat them like my own. Pet care fits seamlessly into my weekdays, as I’m available during daytime hours while most people are at work. I structure my day to give pets plenty of attention, playtime, walks, and rest, making sure their routine is consistent and comfortable. Weekends are flexible as well, so I can accommodate extra visits or longer stays when needed. When caring for pets in my home or at your home, I prioritize safety, comfort, and routine. During walks, all dogs are kept on leash and under close supervision. I ensure that no food or harmful items are accessible, and I maintain controlled environments so pets can explore, play, and relax safely. Each pet’s individual needs are respected, whether it’s exercise, attention, or quiet time, so they feel secure and happy.
