“Our dog Flash loves spending time with Hao and his family. They treat him like he’s part of their family. Hao sends plenty of pictures and videos to keep us updated. I also really appreciate that after spending extended boarding days, Flash doesn’t return home with bad behavior habits. Thanks Hao for taking care of our pup!”
“Liz was absolutely great with taking care of our 14 year old shihtzu poodle! She was very kind, accommodating and communicated well. I would definitely recommend her to everyone and would happily entrust her with watching my dog again any time!”
“Our dog Moose is 6yrs old and this was his first time away from us, so naturally we were a little nervous. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience! Xiangwen was amazing and kept us updated throughout Moose’s entire stay with lots of photos and videos. Seeing how happy and comfortable he was made us feel so much more at ease knowing he was in such good hands. We’re incredibly happy with the care, attention, and love Moose received. We will definitely be booking with Xiangwen again, she is amazing!! 🐾❤️”
“Jin took excellent care of our little dog, Boba. We were initially anxious about leaving her behind but we appreciated how Jin sent us an update and photos immediately after drop off to let us know that our fur baby was settling down nicely. This gesture put our minds at ease and we were able to enjoy our trip knowing our dog was in good hands. Additionally, Jin sent us updates and photos multiple times a day. Honestly, Boba may have looked happier in Jin's care than ours. She was smiling brightly, asking for belly rubs, hanging out with Muffin (Jin's dog), and frolicking in the backyard.”
“Jacky & Yunn were highly recommended to us by my sister, and they absolutely lived up to the praise! They took fantastic care of my pup, Ebi, for the weekend. Since this was Ebi’s first boarding experience and she’s an anxious dog, I was nervous about how she would do, but she looked so comfortable and settled with them! Jacky & Yunn kept us updated with messages, photos, and videos, which gave us so much peace of mind. Their care and attentiveness made the entire experience stress-free. Thank you for making Ebi’s first boarding experience such a success!”
“Watson has stayed with the family twice now and we’ve had a great experience each time. He always comes back happy, relaxed, and clearly very well cared for. We really appreciate the updates and the genuine care they show him — it gives us total peace of mind while we’re away for work/travel. We’d definitely book again (already did) and he comes home with very cute treats as a takeaway.”
“Diana and Kristoffer boarded Charlie for a few days . Diana sent many pics during her stay , we all laughed that Charlie was getting a photo shoot , the photos also being esthetically pleasing !! Charlie seemed very comfortable and got lots of attention with the kids aswell . She came home happy and healthy ! We will definitely rebook with Diana and Kristoffer . Thank you for taking such great care of her .”
“I’m so grateful for the wonderful care Li provided for Jelly. She is experienced, attentive, and genuinely cares about Jelly. She kept me updated with many photos and videos, which gave me great peace of mind while I was traveling. I could relax knowing my dog was in such loving and capable hands. Highly recommend!”
“Caroline is the best! Our dog absolutely loved spending time with her and was honestly a little sad to leave her care. From the moment we met her, it was clear how caring, attentive, and experienced she is. She took the time to understand his personality, routines, and specific needs, and adapted to his schedule so he felt comfortable and at home. One thing we especially appreciated was the frequent updates, photos, and messages while we were away on vacation. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing he was happy, well cared for, and having a great time. Caroline truly went above and beyond to make sure both we and our dog felt comfortable throughout the entire experience. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and would most definitely recommend Caroline to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, compassionate, and reliable to care for their pet.”
“Umber and Melly were in great hands with Sam and her family. Sam was super responsive and kept us updated with lots of videos and photos throughout the day. Sam and her family are very attentive and when we picked up the dogs at the end of the day, they were both so calm and peaceful 😌.”
“Five star review for Lisa and Kam, they took extra good care of our westie Toby. Very nice and accommodating people, Toby was happy in their care and will rebook him soon..;) Thank you again Lisa and Kam.”

“We left Mylo at Kelly’s house for one night and he came back home happy. Kelly kept us informed with updates and pictures throughout the stay and I could see she took a good care of Mylo like her own dogs. I’ll put Mylo at Kelly’s again if I need a sitter for him.”
“Ka Ying (Karine) went above and beyond with Milo !! I was so comfortable leaving Milo with her. She was always sending pictures and having fun with him. I would definitely trust with leave Milo again with her! Thank you Karine!!”

“Angela was beyond wonderful. Our cat, Mina, has medical needs which make it a challenge for others to watch her. Angela went above and beyond in helping her feel comfortable and was able to tend to her needs. She truly cared for Mina as if she were her own. Could not recommend Angela more. ❤️”
“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.”

“I had the pleasure of having Wing as my drop-in sitter for over a month while I was away, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. She is extremely responsible, always on time, and truly kind to my two cats. Wing took great care of them — refilling their food, changing their water, cleaning the litter box, and even helping with the water tank for my vacuum robot. As a cat owner who misses their pets dearly while traveling, I was especially grateful for the photos and videos Wing sent during every visit. They brought me so much comfort and peace of mind, knowing my cats were well cared for and happy. I truly appreciate her dedication and care — it made all the difference during my time away. Highly recommended!”
“We feel so lucky to have Selina to take care of our cat while we were away. She is super friendly and helpful to provide tips or information. She even took extra effort to meet with our cat in advance to get to know him a bit. 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.
“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: ONLY 1 fur friend each time. Pets are families. They deserve love and care. My mom had a cat, we play, eat, sleep together.

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.

“My husband and I met Dana before we went on our trip where she took care of our cat. What struck us with Dana is her positivity, and her genuine care for animals. She spent 4 days visiting our cat, making sure he has food, water and clean litter box. She was very engaging during her visits and keeping us updated with our cat's wellbeing. We always felt at ease knowing she was there to make sure our cat has everything he needs during our absence. We had a great experience with Dana, and we definitely recommend her to anyone looking to have a caring, enthusiastic and positive pet sitter! My husband and I will always ask for Dana on our future trips to take care of our cat :)”
“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!”
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

“Thank you for watching my ol' senior, hard of hearing, and anxious dog today. I appreciate it! I knew he would be in good hands and I enjoyed a day of appointments with peace of mind. Thank you Jin! All the best”
“I left my dog Chai with Xiangwen for doggy daycare and she was so amazing. Chai recently had her spay surgery so I needed someone to watch her very attentively and Xiangwen did an amazing job at that. I was very grateful that Xiangwen sent multiple videos and photos of Chai to keep me updated as I’m a very anxious person. When I picked Chai up she was in a good mood and very happy so I know she loved her stay. Overall, I would highly recommend Xiangwen and would definitely book with her again!”
“This is the 2nd time I sent my pup to Liz for daycare. She gave me a peace of mind when I was away. I rarely sent my pup to Rover sitter but I totally trusted Liz and believed my pup is in a good hand. I can see my pup is happy and relaxing in pictures. I will only go to Liz whenever I visit Toronto😄”
“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.”

About: 🐾 Animal Experience I have over 12 years of hands-on experience caring for animals, including dogs and cats. In my home country, I was actively involved in rescuing and caring for animals in need, helping them recover, rehabilitate, and find safety and comfort again. Through this experience, I have learned how to handle animals with different temperaments, ages, and emotional needs, from shy and anxious pets to very active and social ones. I developed a strong sense of patience, observation, and calm energy when working with animals. This long-term experience has given me the ability to quickly understand each pet’s behavior and respond in a way that makes them feel safe, respected, and cared for. As I am home full-time, I can adapt my daily routine to each dog's individual needs, providing constant companionship, supervision, and personalized care throughout their stay. Mornings: We start the day with a safe, supervised walk around the neighborhood, followed by breakfast and some time to settle in comfortably. During the day: I stay home throughout the day, so dogs are never left alone for long periods. They enjoy supervised playtime in our fully fenced private backyard, along with plenty of indoor companionship, relaxation, and personalized attention. I always make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for according to their usual routine. Afternoons and evenings: We go for a second walk to help them burn energy and maintain a balanced routine. Afterward, they can relax and enjoy family time indoors. I also send daily photo and video updates so owners can stay connected and have peace of mind while they are away. My Home & Care Policy To provide a safe, calm, and stress-free environment, I only accept dogs. My home features a fully fenced private backyard where dogs can safely enjoy outdoor time under supervision. We are a quiet, family-oriented household with a smoke-free and alcohol-free environment. My husband is a veterinarian, which reflects our family's love and respect for animals; however, I am the primary caregiver and personally responsible for the daily care and attention of every dog in my home. My goal is for every guest to feel safe, comfortable, loved, and truly at home during their stay. 🐾❤️ 🐾 Safety, Trust & Environment The safety and well-being of every pet is my top priority. I provide a calm, structured, and closely supervised environment where pets are never left unattended and always feel protected and cared for. Trust is built through consistency, patience, and attention to detail. I take the time to understand each pet’s needs, routines, and comfort levels so they feel secure and relaxed during their stay. I also offer a clean, smoke-free, and environmentally friendly home with access to a private fenced green yard and nearby parks. This allows pets to enjoy fresh air, nature, and safe outdoor stimulation in a controlled and responsible way. My goal is to create a peaceful balance between safety, trust, and a healthy environment where pets can feel at home, calm, and happy.

“Our dogs took to Bernice right away! My parents are older, so we booked her to walk our dogs for 7 days while we were away.

We were able to relax and enjoy ourselves knowing our fur babies were in good hands!”

About: Hi there! I'm a passionate and responsible pet sitter with over 1 years of experience. I have a deep love for animals and understand the importance of providing them with the care and attention they deserve. Whether it's a playful pup or a finicky feline, I'm dedicated to making sure your pets are comfortable and happy in your absence. We have 2 family dogs and a cat and I have taken of them since they were little. I miss my fur babies here in Toronto. I am starting this as a side thing and I’m new to this app please give me a chance and I’ll not disappoint you :) I’m currently working from home so I have plenty of time to play with your pets. I can board on the weekends and some week days. I have a fenced yard to keep your fur babies safe. I live in safe and clean area. Your fur babies are protected and safe in your absence.
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.
“We could tell when we met her that Dana absolutely loves dogs. She was undeterred when we told her that our 10-year-old Aussie is highly energetic and does not always respond well to other dogs. She showed up reliably every day during the week we were gone, taking him on the full hour walk and even including her children on a couple of outings. The routes we took were varied and we really felt our little guy was getting a chance to work out his endless energy. We highly recommend her.”
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: It's been two years since I began fostering and in that time I've learned a lot about the importance of caring for a pet whether it be basic training/ commands, thresholds or ensuring they receive proper mental stimulation. With my first foster (eventually foster fail), it was a lot of trial and error to figure out which training method was best suited for him because every dog response is different based on their breed and unique personality. The rescue (Sea Paws Rescue) was very complimentary of my foster's training and said he was one of their best trained intake! I've since fostered a rescue puppy and provided the same basic training to ensure they found their forever home, which we did! The family was also very impressed with how well the puppy responded to sit and down commands. During this time, I also watched 3 dogs in the same household over a two-week period, while ensuring each dog received the required training and engagement on a daily basis. I treat every dog in my care as if their my own and ensure safety precautions are in place to avoid any unnecessary incidents. I also understand that leaving your dog in an unfamiliar environment and person can be nerve wracking, so I will always provide regular updates via text, pics, or videos! I also have my Pet First Aid certificate through Walks 'N' Wags Pet First Aid. I look forward to meeting you and your furry friend soon! I currently work part-time retail with 2-3 shifts per week, but I have flexible hours. During my two-week stint of caring for three dogs at the same time, it brought me a lot of joy to be surrounded by three loveable (and different) dogs. It also helped my foster pup understand proper boundaries with other dogs to know when and when not to engage or give proper space. In my home, I ensure that it's a safe, clean, and inviting environment for my dog. I also provide a structured routine to ensure he is properly stimulated - both mentally and physically (ex. Morning potty break, breakfast, and morning walks). For your pets, I guarantee they will receive the same treatment as if they were my own. If they have a routine, certain boundaries, or essential needs, I will do everything I can to ensure it's followed exactly as required.
About: Hi! My name is Monique. I bring genuine love, patience, and connection to every animal I care for. Animals are more than pets, they’re family. I treat the ones I care for with the same respect, attention, and affection I would my own. I am trained in dog CPR and First Aid, which gives owners added peace of mind knowing their pet is in safe and capable hands. I also grew up with a beautiful black and brown male Doberman Pinscher named Ninja. I’m comfortable with larger breeds and understand the importance of structure, exercise, and attentive care. My experience started young, caring for family members’ and neighbors’ pets, and I’ve always loved being around animals. Ninja regularly had playdates with other dogs, which helped me learn even more about socialization, behavior, and how different dogs interact. I enjoy teaching dogs new tricks, reinforcing positive habits, and keeping them active through walks, play, and mental stimulation. My favorite games to play with dogs are hide and seek and fetch. I also love to see how happy they get when they hear the word "walk". The excitement is very adorable and in return brings me great joy. I don't currently own a dog, but I’m happy to regularly help care for two beloved family dogs who visit on weekends. A sweet female senior Shih Tzu and an energetic six-year-old female Giant Schnauzer. I treat them like my own, and caring for dogs of different ages, sizes, and personalities has given me valuable hands on experience. From providing gentle attention and comfort to senior pets to keeping active dogs engaged and happy, I understand that every dog has unique needs and deserves loving, reliable care. I am available full time for your pet. Pet care fits well into my daily routine since I have a flexible schedule and can provide consistent attention throughout the day. I’m available for boarding on both weekdays and weekends and can accommodate different care needs as required. Pets in my care are provided with a safe, structured, and attentive environment. I provide trustworthy care and make sure every walk and visit is safe, positive, and stress free. I can also care for pets in your home, following all instructions and specific needs you provide.
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.

“Our dog Flash loves spending time with Hao and his family. They treat him like he’s part of their family. Hao sends plenty of pictures and videos to keep us updated. I also really appreciate that after spending extended boarding days, Flash doesn’t return home with bad behavior habits. Thanks Hao for taking care of our pup!”
“Our dog Moose is 6yrs old and this was his first time away from us, so naturally we were a little nervous. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience! Xiangwen was amazing and kept us updated throughout Moose’s entire stay with lots of photos and videos. Seeing how happy and comfortable he was made us feel so much more at ease knowing he was in such good hands. We’re incredibly happy with the care, attention, and love Moose received. We will definitely be booking with Xiangwen again, she is amazing!! 🐾❤️”
“Umber and Melly were in great hands with Sam and her family. Sam was super responsive and kept us updated with lots of videos and photos throughout the day. Sam and her family are very attentive and when we picked up the dogs at the end of the day, they were both so calm and peaceful 😌.”
“We've booked our 7-year-old Siberian Husky, Levi, with Amrit several times over the past 2-3 years. Most bookings have been overnight; one was for several nights. Our experience with Amrit has been excellent every time. Amrit takes great care of Levi.”
“We left Mylo at Kelly’s house for one night and he came back home happy. Kelly kept us informed with updates and pictures throughout the stay and I could see she took a good care of Mylo like her own dogs. I’ll put Mylo at Kelly’s again if I need a sitter for him.”

“We had the great opportunity to use Patricia’s fantastic services while we were away for 6 days from December 7th to 13th, 2021, and she managed to give us back our very happy and healthy dog! Thank you so much Patricia, as we know our Georgie is still very much a puppy, but you took it all in stride! And we appreciated the pictures while we were away too! Patricia provides an excellent, safe and very comfortable homey space for pups and we highly recommend her doggie daycare! Rover.com is the way to go for worry free care!”

“It was great, Sherlock and Amora loved their stay at Ilana & Lambros' house. I received daily updates with photos. Next time I travel again, I will definitely leave my dogs with them.”
“We couldn’t be more grateful to Shirley for the care she gave our dog Toby. It was his first time boarding and we were not sure how Toby would behave in a new environment but Shirley made us felt so comfortable and relaxed. Shirley provided updates and pictures regularly and reassured us how well Toby was doing. Toby got to spend a lot of time on walks and getting fresh air and had lots of fun with Shirley. I would definitely recommend Shirley and will look for her the next time Toby needs a sitter. Thank you so much Shirley for your help and the amazing level of care you gave Toby!”
About: My husband and I are passionate dog lovers and have been caring for pets of all sizes for over 5 years. We truly enjoy spending time with dogs and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while they are in our care. We have a 3-year-old Golden Retriever who is very friendly and loves being around both dogs and people. He is well-socialized and enjoys having furry friends around. We train him at home and have worked on basic obedience, manners, and good behavior. We understand that every dog has a different personality, routine, and needs. We are happy to follow your pet’s usual schedule, including walks, playtime, feeding routines, and plenty of love and attention. Our goal is to make your pet feel at home and give you peace of mind while you’re away. My husband and I both work from home, which gives us a flexible schedule and allows us to give pets plenty of attention throughout the day. We are able to take regular breaks for walks, playtime, feeding, and cuddles. We have a dog-friendly home where dogs are welcome to roam freely and feel comfortable rather than being kept in a separate room or confined for long periods. Our own Golden Retriever is part of our family and enjoys having other dogs around. Because we work from home, we can provide companionship throughout the day and keep a close eye on your pet. We are happy to follow your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible so they feel relaxed, safe, and at home while staying with us. We treat every pet like a member of our family. Since my husband and I both work from home, your pet will have plenty of companionship and attention throughout the day. Dogs are welcome to roam freely around our home and relax wherever they feel comfortable. We follow each pet’s individual routine for meals, walks, potty breaks, playtime, and rest. We also provide plenty of love, cuddles, and supervised playtime, especially with our friendly 3-year-old Golden Retriever. Our home is a calm, loving, and pet-friendly environment, and we always make your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness our priority.
