About: I love dogs of all sizes and temperaments and will always treat your pup like my own, complete with tons of photo and video updates! I own an 8yo Shiba and 4yo Samoyed, cared for a senior Shih Tzu, and have fostered reactive dogs. I'm fully comfortable with training routines, medications, recovery care, and raw or specialized diets for any walks or drop-in visits. Let me know and I can follow any routine! I’m currently working from home, so I can definitely do any walks or drop-ins needed with my schedule! Monday to Friday with some weekends can work - just message me or check my calendar! Safety and proper routine are my top priorities. I weight train 3 times a week and have experience walking high-energy puppies up to big husky/spitz breeds. I’m comfortable using any gear or harness setup your dog requires to ensure secure, happy and controlled walks. During drop-ins, I’m happy to follow exact feeding routines, give oral or topical medications, and leave your home secure before I head out.
“Danya was the best sitter for our cats! She took photos and provided detailed descriptions every day, it was such a relief to have a reliable and attentive person taking care of the cats while we were away. Thank you Danya!”
“We are first time pet owners, that too with cats who are very different than dogs. So we were quite worried when it was time to take our very first vacation after becoming pet parents. We had adopted rescued cats, one of them Pumbaa is more anxious around new people. Finding Selina on Rover has felt like all our prayers got answered. She is such a loving, caring and gentle person. Both our cats got friendly with her right away. While we were away, she used to send us many photos and videos everyday capturing their precious and cute moments. She gave us soooo much peace of mind during our vacation, we cannot be more grateful. ❤️❤️ She truly understands pets, having multiple pets herself and being a regular volunteer at a shelter in New Market. She also goes over and above proactively. For example, she used to turn on different lights each evening to make it look someone’s at home. And then send us a photo of which one’s on. Then one day she watered my indoors plants. She would sometimes include photos of the cleaned litter boxes too. We couldn’t be more happy with her. Such a blessing! We highly recommend her. 🥰💖”
“Hiu Kun was absolutely amazing with my cat, Kiwi! I received frequent updates with wonderful photos and videos showing Kiwi well-fed, happy, and super relaxed. Hiu Kun is extremely responsible, detailed, and truly loves animals. It gave me total peace of mind throughout my trip. Highly recommended, and I will definitely be rebooking! 🐾❤️”

“Yee Yan did an amazing job taking care of my cat! She’s super detailed and genuinely concerned about every little thing. With her vet tech background, I know my cat’s in good hands. I’ll definitely rebook her next time.”
“Yu-Sum watched our 3 cats while we were on vacation last week. She was a delight and a big hit with my cats which was a surprise since they are typically shy and take a long time to warm up to strangers. During our vacation, our cat sitter had an emergency at our house and she immediately alerted us and helped handle the situation. She also watered our plants and emptied our pool strainer for us which was super helpful. We highly recommend her and will definitely use her again.”
About: I’ve taken care of younger cats, but have the patience and understanding for older cats as well. I started fostering two years ago and helped find homes for 8 cats. From the street to their furever homes!
“Venus took such great care of Ryder and sent so many cute videos and photos of him at each visit. Her love for pets and Ryder is evident in her service and communication. She's trustworthy, easy to work with and even went above and beyond to help empty out the litter/waste bin as it was getting too full while we were away. Highly recommended. :)”
About: Dogs are family! They deserve long walks, belly rubs and play time. I can provide your dog with walks, runs, fun play time or whatever he/she likes when you leave them with me. I love taking long walks and enjoying nature so I believe your dog will love taking walks with me. Also, I make time for relaxing so if your dog does not like being outside, I can plan fun indoor activities for them to enjoy. Putting fun aside, I am a responsible adult who sees safety as very important when dog sitting. Therefore, I will take every measure to ensure that each dog under my supervision will always be in my sight and out of harms way. Overall, I am very passionate and loving towards dogs. P.S. I grew up around dogs ever since I was born. Some breeds that I have taken care of are Shih tzus, Pomeranian mixes, Rottweilers, Pit bulls and German Sheppards. I currently work part time and can adjust my schedule and take on last minute bookings. So far most of my availability is limited to midday or late afternoon. If you require earlier days please do not hesitate to contact me. I want to learn your fur baby’s preference for play and walk to ensure he or she will have the best time ever! I will treat your home with the utmost respect as if it were mine.
About: Hi! I’m Katy — a lifelong animal lover and a proud pet parent of 5 cats and 2 dogs. I’ve cared for pets with very different personalities — from shy and sensitive cats to energetic, playful dogs. I’m especially patient and attentive, and I always adjust my care based on each pet’s unique needs. With my background as a teacher, and a mother of three kids. I’m calm, reliable, and detail-oriented. I treat every pet like my own and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I also enjoy long walks and outdoor time, so if your dog loves exercise, we’ll be a great match 😊 Looking forward to meeting you and your furry family!
About: I have always been a great dog lover. I have experience taking care of dogs in a doggy day care and volunteering in an animal hospital. I am currently working part-time and have many available hours for dog walking. I have much flexibility and I am free most mornings, afternoons and evenings Safety is my priority.I maintain very small groups of dogs for focused attention and choose routes with minimal traffic. Your pup's well being is very important to me.
About: ONLY 1 fur friend each time. Pets are families. They deserve love and care. My mom had a cat, we play, eat, sleep together. He taught me how to enjoy life no matter what you have experienced or experiencing. My friend had a dog, I always go visit. We played and went out for walks often. Thank you so much for picking me and share your cute family with me. I only accept 1 fur friend or 2 from the same family each time so I can put all my attention on him/her. Loves hiking when weather permits,5km min. For 🐶 will provide daily walking data so you know how long we walked and how much energy we burned. We will go out for a walk in the morning time, lunch time and dinner time. More short 15-20 potty breaks in between as well. 3 times of walking of 30 min would be by default. On weekends will go hiking with 5km min. I lived in a pet friendly condo and the neighborhood is very quiet to take a walk. There are two community parks nearby to visit. When walking in the neighborhood and condo, will always meet at least 1 or 2 pet friend.
About: What truly sets me apart is my background as a rescue pet parent. I understand that not every pet is 'plug and play', some need extra patience, a calm voice, and time to decompress. My experience has taught me how to read subtle body language and handle pets that may be shy, anxious, or have specific triggers. Additionally, as a working professional with a steady 9 to 5, I bring a high level of organization and reliability to my sittings. I am not someone who will flake or show up late; I treat your pet's schedule with the same respect I give my own career. You can expect detailed updates, photos from every walk, and a sitter who is deeply committed to maintaining your pet's existing routine and home security. Pet care is a dedicated part of my morning and evening routine. Because I work a consistent 9 to 5 schedule, I offer highly reliable and 'on the clock' care that pets thrive on. On Weekdays: I am available for early morning walks or check-ins before 8:30 AM, and I am fully dedicated to pet care starting at 5:30 PM for evening walks, feedings, and playtime. For house-sitting clients, your pet will have my full company throughout the evening and overnight. On Weekends: My schedule is completely open! I use Saturdays and Sundays for longer walks, adventure trail visits in the Markham area, and extended playtime. Safety is my top priority when caring for pets. When walking or visiting your home, I ensure all doors and gates are securely locked behind me and double-check leashes and harnesses before heading out. I am always vigilant of my surroundings to avoid high-stress situations or unfriendly off-leash dogs. Having cared for a rescue pet, I am very comfortable managing specialized instructions, from strict feeding schedules to administering medication. I believe in clear communication and will provide frequent photo updates and notes so you know your pet is safe, happy, and well-cared for in their own comfortable environment. I treat every home I enter with the utmost respect and every pet as if they were my own family
“We had a great experience with Vanessa! She stayed in our home for five days and was so kind, sweet, and gentle with our cats. One of our cats is a rescue with a lot of anxiety, so Vanessa was incredibly patient with him and did everything she could to help him feel safe and comfortable. After a couple of days, he started coming out of his shell and even came out to get to know her a little, which meant so much to us. Vanessa was incredibly communicative throughout our trip and sent us lots of updates and photos, which we really appreciated. She took great care of our home and my plants, which was very important for us. We felt completely at ease knowing our cats and our home were in such good hands. We would absolutely recommend Vanessa and would happily have her stay with our cats again!”

“This was my first time leaving my to dogs with a sitter, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience! One of my dogs wasn’t feeling his best and needed some special feeding instructions, and she followed them perfectly and made sure he was well taken care of. She was incredibly trustworthy and kept me updated constantly, which gave me so much peace of mind. I was worried that my dogs would be anxious given that it’s their first time with a sitter, but they were both so happy and comfortable with her. I felt completely confident knowing they were in good hands. I would absolutely recommend her and will definitely be booking with her again ❤️❤️”

“Having previously worked in commercial dog daycares myself, and seeing the chaos that happens there, I was super nervous about finding a place for Jules to stay while I go into the office. I am really happy to have found Bernice & Mark to look after Jules! They were very understanding and accommodating of Jules’ quirks and were happy to continue the positive reinforcement I use with him at home. I received updates throughout the day with pictures and he was even calm enough to settle and have a nap! Which is a big deal - Jules is usually too overstimulated in new environments to settle, so seeing him so relaxed assured me that I had made the right choice in Bernice & Mark.”
“We are so grateful that we found Emily and Ling to watch Ollie last minute as our original sitter cancelled on us last minute. They sent updated videos, pictures and keep us update about Ollie. My dog took a little time to warm up to them but eventually settled in and was very relaxed afterwards. Ollie would definitely be a returning customer.”
“Winnie and Pete are fantastic and so kind and caring I had no qualms leaving Odie with them. I absolutely know my sensitive baby is in the best hands. Thank you both for taking such good care of Odie💜💙🐩”
“This was our first time using the Rover app, and we are so happy with the experience. Susan was great to communicate with, and it's clear that Willow had a great time in their care. Susan sent regular pictures that showed Willow enjoying herself. Susan and Gordon have lots of experience with dogs and took such great care of our pup! We'll definitely be using their services again.”
“Samantha is extremely kind and absolutely wonderful with my puppy. She was very communicative and made my pup feel at home at all times. I really appreciate her help with Loops and I would HIGHLY recommend her services. Thank you Samantha 😊”
“Claire is great. I was very nervous about leaving my puppy with anyone but she was so gentle with him. She also sent me updates during the day along with pictures and a video. I am very happy I chose Claire and would highly recommend her.”

“Hiu was wonderful to work with! She was caring, reliable, and took great care of Zoe. She followed all of our instructions carefully, was very understanding of our needs, and was always flexible when schedules changed. It gave us peace of mind knowing Zoe was in such good hands. We would happily recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate dog walker!”
“John and Vanessa are amazing, from our meet and greet to the walk they are both so kind and patient. Our boy can be anxious on walks but John was great giving him time to get comfortable and played with him. Will definitely re-book and highly recommend them”
“I’ve been using Bernice’s dog walking service for several weeks now (it’s probably been almost 2 months??). I couldn’t be happier with her. She is very accommodating, kind, friendly, and great with my dogs. One of my dogs, Rui, has a very traumatic past and is slow to trust. The first time Bernice walked my dogs, Rui didn’t want to follow her out the building AT ALL! I was worried I might have been forcing Rui into this and that having a stranger walk her might be more traumatic than beneficial. But by the third walk, they were best friends. Rui takes a VERY long time to trust anyone, so if this isn’t proof of how great Bernice is with dogs, not sure what is!”
“Abhishek is simply the best! Not only are the walks consistent, but he has also been incredibly accommodating to our schedule. Maggi is always looking forward to go for walk with him.”

About: I've been boarding dogs in my home for over a year, welcoming everything from gentle giants like Samoyeds, Alaskan Malamutes, Huskies, and Cane Corsos to sweet little Shih Tzus, Malteses, and Miniature Poodles. Big or small, every dog gets the same warmth, attention, and care — my home is their home. I also have experience with cat drop-in visits, stopping by to feed, play, and tidy up so your cat stays happy and comfortable in their own familiar space. What sets me apart is that I genuinely love all kinds of animals and take the time to learn each pet's personality and routine. You can count on me to treat your furry family member like my own. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine as a university student who studies from home. Most days I'm around the house, which means your pet always has company and attention throughout the day. My only full days away are Tuesdays and Fridays, when I have on-campus lectures from around 8 AM to 6 PM, but the house is never left empty. My household members are experienced with pets and are always home to ensure your furry friend is looked after, comfortable, and never alone. On Mondays and Wednesdays I have morning lectures, so I'm back home around 3 PM. Thursdays and weekends I'm completely free and fully available. My home is a safe, spacious, and welcoming environment for pets of all sizes. We have a fully fenced yard where dogs can run, explore, and burn off energy with peace of mind. I also share my home with a friendly cat, when boarding larger dogs she's completely comfortable keeping to herself upstairs, so there's no stress for either animal. Most importantly, I believe every pet thrives best when their routine stays as close to normal as possible. I'm happy to follow your feeding schedule, walking habits, house rules, or any other preferences you have. Whatever helps your pet feel at home.
About: Hello! I'm Amrit. With years of hands-on experience caring for dogs, cats, senior pets, and small animals, I go beyond basic pet sitting. I provide personalized, loving care tailored to your pet’s unique needs. Plus, I am dog + cat CPR/First Aid certified as well! 🩹 I have experience with senior pet care and keeping up with energetic dogs and cats. Whether your pet needs daily walks, a bath, extra love and attention (or all four!), I strive to create a stress-free experience by following their routine as closely as possible. Having been surrounded by animals my whole life, I truly understand and respect their needs. I assure you your pet will be in caring, capable hands with me! 🐶🐱💕 **NOTE** For daycare and boarding, I typically take 1 pet at a time only. 2 pets at a time are considered if they come from the same parents. As a student with classes 3 times a week (during the school year), and a home that’s always occupied, I have plenty of time to provide attentive, loving care for your pets. My mom is always ready to lend a hand and help out when needed, so your furry friend gets even more care and attention. Whether it’s daily visits, walks, or overnight stays, your furry friends will always be in good hands! *NOTE* I do this part-time; other bookings and personal commitments may result in limited availability. My Home: A secure fenced yard, a scenic trail right outside for daily walks, and two nearby dog parks for social pups! 🏡 Safety and trust always come first for me, so in-person meet-and-greets are mandatory before confirming any booking! Virtual meets are also offered under certain circumstances. I ask a list of important questions during screening to make sure your pet and my space are a great match. This helps pets feel comfortable early on and lets me better understand their personality, routine, and care style. It makes the whole experience smoother, safer, and way more fun for everyone! Certified in Dog & Cat First Aid, I provide attentive and responsible care, ensuring your pet is always in good hands. I’m happy to accommodate any special needs. Every pet deserves personalized love and care! First-aid Skills & Capabilities ✅: - Oral medication administration - Monitor basic vitals (breathing and heart rate) - Do quick ABC wellness checks (airway, breathing, circulation) - CPR and anti-choking steps - Support first-aid care (wound cleaning, bandaging, + minor bleeding control) - Adjust to special needs *Please note I am not comfortable administering injected medications (insulin, NSAIDS, arthritis meds, etc.) due to lack of hands-on experience* Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. Whether in my home or yours, I strive to replicate their routine to keep them happy and stress-free 😊
About: ONLY 1 fur friend each time. Pets are families. They deserve love and care. My mom had a cat, we play, eat, sleep together. He taught me how to enjoy life no matter what you have experienced or experiencing. My friend had a dog, I always go visit. We played and went out for walks often. Thank you so much for picking me and share your cute family with me. I only accept 1 fur friend or 2 from the same family each time so I can put all my attention on him/her. Loves hiking when weather permits,5km min. For 🐶 will provide daily walking data so you know how long we walked and how much energy we burned. We will go out for a walk in the morning time, lunch time and dinner time. More short 15-20 potty breaks in between as well. 3 times of walking of 30 min would be by default. On weekends will go hiking with 5km min. I lived in a pet friendly condo and the neighborhood is very quiet to take a walk. There are two community parks nearby to visit. When walking in the neighborhood and condo, will always meet at least 1 or 2 pet friend.
About: My journey started as a shelter/foster volunteer, caring for cats before I had one of my own — from playful kittens to senior cats who need a slower pace and extra patience. I've been a cat mom for 5+ years — including relocating internationally with my cat — and I've provided dedicated cat care through TrustedHousesitters. My specialty is cats: reading their body language, adjusting to each personality and life stage, and keeping their routine calm and consistent while you're away. I'm also comfortable and experienced with dogs, having grown up around my grandma's dogs of different sizes and temperaments — happy to offer reliable, attentive walks alongside my cat services. I work from home, so your cat gets real company and supervision throughout the day — not a rushed morning/evening visit. Flexible timing for feeding, play, and check-ins, or quiet companionship if that's what your cat prefers. Spacious, clean, quiet townhouse — calm and pet-safe. Boarding cats get their own private room with 24/7 camera monitoring, equipped with cat tree and toys, a window view, and zero contact with other animals. No resident pets sharing the space. 🚑 Emergency plan: If anything seems off, I contact you immediately. If we can't reach each other right away, I'll bring your cat straight to your designated vet — or the nearest emergency vet clinic if it's after-hours. I'm happy to sign a vet authorization form at booking so I can act fast if needed.
About: I've been dog walking since I was a little girl. Specializing in providing quality exercise in nature environments. Can go for long walks or jogs with them :) Currently working part time, so very available for quality time. We do 2-3 walks per day. Can't wait to meet you and your furry friend. All pets will be fed separately as a safety precaution. If I have to run out the dogs will be separated via room or crate provided by owner.
