“Adrianne was absolutely amazing with our two dogs, Ben and Sky! From the very first update, we could tell they were in the best hands. She was so patient with their quirks (especially Ben’s big personality!) and went above and beyond to make sure they were happy, comfortable, and well cared for. She kept us updated with the sweetest messages and photos, and it was clear how much time, care, and love she put into looking after them. It meant the world to us to know they were not only safe, but truly enjoying themselves while we were away. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter — thank you, Adrianne, for everything! We’ll definitely be reaching out again!”

“Elizaveta was the perfect dog sitter for our Rudy! I was nervous at first about having a dog sitter but she made me feel very safe and confident with our choice. We really appreciated getting lots of updates and pictures of him. She went above and beyond with keeping Rudy busy with lots of walks. We would 100% recommend her to a friend!”

“Paula was great with our cat. She is very reliable, communicative, and clearly has a genuine love for animals. She followed the few instructions carefully, sent regular updates and photos, and went above and beyond to make sure our cat was well taken care of while we were away. We would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter!”

“Sylvain was very organized and thorough when it came to collecting information about my dog, Dennis, to prepare for his stay. Sylvain is excellent with his own dogs, Yogi and Choco, which left me with confidence to leave Dennis with Sylvain. He provided regular updates and my dog Dennis got lots of walks while he was with Sylvain. Dennis was one tired dog when it was time for him to come home! :-) Thank you Sylvain! Would recommend his services.”

“Anjali is awesome, kept me well informed throughout the day with photos and videos every hour. Our pup gets very excited when we approach their front door and she loves Anjali. Very happy and would definitely recommend Anjali!”

“Jodi watched my 2 year old lab for 2 days and 1 night. She was wonderful, and even arranged for a meet and greet the week before his stay so that we could get to know her. She was so reassuring, you can tell that she knows what it’s like to leave behind your cherished pet. She took detailed notes when asking about my dog and sent lots of updates and pictures while I was away. Would recommend without hesitation. Thanks, Jodi!”

“Amanda is amazing. She took in our two bullmastiffs like they were her own for over a week and she made our trip away so much better knowing how well they were being taken care of. She sent us photos and updates of the girls frequently which was really nice and put us at ease. She is extremely trustworthy and we would not hesitate to leave our girls with her again. We feel very lucky to have found her and I would recommend her to anyone. Thanks so much Amanda ❤️ we will definately be returning.”

“Nidhi was so friendly and easy to communicate with. Cheese really enjoyed his stay there. Nidhi regularly updated with photos and videos of cheese. She accommodated our need of dropping off cheese early.I really recommend her.”

“Yuleizi took excellent care of my little one! Animosh can sometimes struggle with change and new people but seemed absolutely comfortable with Yuleizi and her home. I had great communication and got many pictures of my kitty. I would absolutely ask Yuleizi to watch my Ani again!”

“Madison took great care of our 2 cats while we were away! She's reliable, punctual, and a great communicator, and having her dropping in on our cats put our minds at ease. One of our cats is typically very timid, but the first time she met Madison she went to her right away for pets! I would recommend Madison to anyone and we would definitely book with her again in the future!”

About: I have been around dogs for my entire life. Friends and family have trusted me to watch their pets. I am always on time and love to follow a routine. Whether it’s walks, feeding, or keeping your pets company, I am comfortable and happy to help! I currently have a very open schedule! I am available during the week if you need pet care during the work day. Weekends tend to be a bit more busy, but I am flexible and willing to work out a schedule that works for both of us! I want to ensure that your pets feel safe and comfortable with me in your home. I will follow all care instructions as provided and I will stick to their regular routine. I’m very respectful of others homes, so I will leave your space exactly as I found it!
“My wife and I were very happy with Jodi. We were out of town for a week and she took care of our 2 cats. She was on time for their breakfast and dinner feedings. She cleaned the litterboxes as directed and washed the cat dishes. She spent quality time with the cats and provided us with detailed updates and pictures. Highly recommend.”

About: I’ve been around dogs for my entire life, whether that’s with my own pups or volunteering at my local animal shelter. I moved away from home, so any chance I get to spend time with dogs brings me such joy! I have experience caring for dogs of all ages—from puppies to 15 years old. I’m a responsible young adult who will treat your pet and home with care and respect. I work 9-5 monday to friday in a very flexible job. I enjoy evening walks with doggos & spending my weekends with them! I’m open to morning/evening walks as well as house sitting when needed. I believe in treating peoples homes and pets exactly how I would want mine to be treated. I’m attentive to your specific instructions with your animals and home. I take great pride in my respectful and kind nature, which allows me to form strong relationships with clients.
About: I’m an animal lover who has spent years caring for pets! Over the years, I have gained experience through house, dog, and cat sitting for my family and friends. These experiences have made me more comfortable with different personalities, energy levels, and various care needs. I love getting outside and going for long walks which makes me a great fit for energetic dogs! I am just as suited for calmer pets who prefer quiet company! I treat each pet with genuine care to make sure they feel safe and loved while they are away from their owners. I am currently a Master’s student with a super flexible schedule! Since my coursework and research hours aren’t fixed, I am able to plan my day around walks, drop-ins, or pet-setting. I spend most of my time working from home which gives me the freedom to check in on pets, take them for long walks, or stay overnight whenever needed. To foster a safe, trusted environment, I focus on keeping routines as familiar as possible for your pets. I follow owner’s instructions clearly (e .g., feeding schedules, walk times, medications) and make sure pets get plenty of attention, exercise, and love.
About: I have had a dog for most of my life and have always been an animal lover. I have experience with dog sitting for family friends and i always ensure they are well cared for and loved in their owners’ absence. Growing up, I spent a lot of time at the Thunder Bay Humane Society, where I developed a deep love and understanding of animals. My approach to pet sitting is to treat every animal as if they were my own, ensuring they receive the attention, care, and affection they deserve. I am currently working part time and I am a university student. I have weekends free and most week nights so I have lots of time to play with pups! I provide a safe, comfortable environment where pets get plenty of attention, playtime, and exercise. I have a fenced in yard and one very friendly dog.
“Hope was fantastic to deal with from the start with answering questions to keeping me updated on every visit. I knew Milo was in great hands and I’ll be using her every time I go away! Thanks for taking such good care of my “little” guy!”

About: I have always had a dog growing up. I got my first dog of my own in 2019 as a rescue and since have adopted a second dog as a rescue as well. I have great joy in helping dogs with a challenging past overcome their obstacles and open up to the world again. I have experience with older dogs that require medication, younger high energy dogs that need more mental stimulus and puppies that require constant redirection and training. I love all dogs. I have a calm approach with dogs which generally makes them quick to accept me and want to be around me even those that tend to be more timid. I currently work at the hospital and I’m in school at Lakehead for nursing. My schedule can be a bit chaotic at times but generally Sunday through Wednesday I have gaps in my day that allow for me to help out. I have a large yard, it is not fenced but dogs with good recall can run around and others I use a long lead so they can enjoy the yard while still being within control.
About: I have taken care of dogs of all breeds and ages for 8 years. Neighbours, family and friends have relied on me to walk, feed, bathe, train, give medication, and love their pets. I just finished my Social Work degree. I’m currently working part-time as a server, and work a casual job. My schedule is usually pretty open, and I can work with your availability and be flexible as well! I will make sure your dog is on a leash/in a fenced in yard to ensure safety. I can bring your dog to the beach or a park if good off-leash and with other dogs. I can also easily crate your dog if needed.

My dog motto is a balanced, healthy and happy dog through exercise, discipline and affection. Using dog psychology with calmness and assertiveness. Dogs are my best companions and great teachers of love awareness.

So you can be sure that your dog will be safe, comfortable, well looking after, relaxed and happy. We will do our best between me and my wife to supervise your dog all the time.

“Kunika has been excellent with my small breed dog. She was in constant communication and also provided confidence by sending pictures of the walks and meals. I would definitely recommend Kunika as a sitter in the future! Leo was with her for almost 12 hours and she was able to handle him with lots of care!”

“We would highly recommend Stephanie. She is responsive, warm and welcoming and her enclosed back yard allowed our dog to be outside and active. Thanks Stephanie, we will use your services again, Deb and Peter”
