We arrived to pick up Joey and I think he would have preferred to stay! We had pics and comments from Sheilagh when we were away and were never worried about the care he was receiving. Excellent dog sitting home! Joey is going back for another 5 day stay in December and I’m sure he’ll be excited to see Gigi the resident queen pooch again!

We left Stanley in Maya's care for the past 5 days. She was kind and caring and made sure he was well looked after while we were away. Maya's communication was great, so we were very comfortable knowing our little guy was in good hands. We would happily book with Maya again, and highly recommend her to others.

Rhonda was absolutely amazing! She took such wonderful care of my older, reactive dog and handled everything with skill and kindness. Her experience with dogs really shows — Lollie was comfortable, happy, and even a little sad to see her go! Rhonda stayed at my home and left it spotless — so clean and tidy you wouldn’t have even known anyone had stayed. I have complete peace of mind leaving Lollie in her care and will definitely be inviting her back next time!

Christine is a very warm, very friendly caring person and it was obvious from the moment she met our two dogs they would be in wonderful hands with her! One of our dogs is very shy, yet she took to Christine very quickly. Their home is perfect in terms of the layout and with a fenced back yard. Christine sent us photos over the 3 day period and is very responsive in her replies. One of our dogs is challenged to navigate stairs however Christine had a gate to prevent her from going up the stairs and potentially hurting herself. We would definitely book Christine again to care for our two dogs!!

Dana & Robert were amazing! It was my first time leaving one of my dogs with someone I didn’t previously know as well as using the Rover app. Dana and Robert communicated incredibly well and set my mind at ease quickly. They were very flexible and accommodating with some schedules changes on my end. While I was away I received numerous updates on my dog’s day and well-being which eased my worry about leaving him and allowed me to have a relaxing and restful trip. He had the best time ever!! I truly thought he may not want to come home because of how much fun he was having with Dana, Robert and some of the other boarding dogs. I’m so happy to have found two kind and loving dog people to watch over my dog if I’m in need. I would 10/10 recommend as well as use their services again! Thank you again so so much!

I was so happy to have Andrea stay with our two cats. What a lovely person! We were away for nearly four weeks, but I never worried about any of them. Andrea sent messages and photos during that time, and I could see that they were all getting along well. We came home to a tidy home and two happy cats! I hope Andrea will come and stay the next time we need a cat sitter. 🐈🐈‍⬛

My cats were in the Best care! One is a little more timid and she was in Cat Love right from the beginning of the stay. It was better than I could have hoped for. It was a relief to leave Cally and Pumpkin in care with someone who clearly loves cats. I highly recommend this service and site without hesitation and know you can leave your furry friends in caring hands and enjoy your time away! We will definitely be booking again! Thank you so very much!

Vanessa took excellent care of our cat Meeko while we were away! She went above and beyond to make sure that Meeko had everything she needed, and was very gentle and patient with her; our cat is quite shy, but Vanessa managed to bring her out of her shell quickly, which is an impressive feat! Vanessa was friendly, polite, and communicative all the way through, and we came home to a very healthy and happy kitty! We will definitely be inviting her back next time we go away - highly recommend.

About: I unfortunately have no experience other than I’ve had my cat for over a year now and my puppy for 7 months. I love them with all my heart. I have also been around dogs since the day I was born (all different breeds and ages). I work from home for my step dads business (Kodiak Metal Buildings) so this works perfectly as I need a little more money and have so much love for animals. I have a fenced in lawn and a 11 month golden retriever pup that loves every other animal! He doesn’t have a mean bone in his body.

About: I’ve had cats in my home all of my life, but have had my own cat for 3.5 years now. My cat is part bengal, so naturally he is very energetic and smart. I’ve taught him to sit, high five, lay down, and fetch. I’ve given him both oral and topical (such as eye drops) medications successfully, and have always followed veterinary instructions closely. I clean his litter boxes daily, as he is quite particular. Furthermore, I’ve done a lot of research about cats in order to give him the best life possible. He has a water fountain away from his food because cats prefer running water, he is fed a special urinary care dry food because of past issues, and he is also fed wet food because moisture is of utmost importance for cats and their kidneys - especially male cats. I never keep flowers or toxic plants in my house for his safety, and I take him outside on a leash so that he is able to get the stimulation he needs with less risk. I’m a very particular cat owner, and would understand and respect any other cat owners preferences, just as I’d hope someone would do the same for me.

About: hiii, I’m Devin! (I’m new to Rover.com) I have (ongoing) experience volunteering at multiple humane societies, volunteering at an animal sanctuary, pet sitting, and I’m going into a Veterinary Technician program next year! I spend lots of my time caring for, playing with and loving animals with different personalities, needs, and comfort levels. Patience, consistency, and making animals feel safe and comfortable is very important. Volunteering and spending my time with animals reinforces how important it is to meet the needs of every specific individual animal. Im comfortable following specialized care and medical instructions carefully and paying close attention to changes in behaviour or needs. I’ve given prescribed medication to animals in many ways, many times so I’m 100% okay and accommodating to special care animals. I’m especially good with shy, anxious, or sensitive animals and try to create a calm, low-stress environment for them. I read, watch and learn lots about animals everyday. I have many certifications around animals as well; like the ‘Fear Free’ certification for example. What sets me apart is my experience and also that I genuinely care about animals as individuals and that I take the time to understand their individual personalities, routines, and boundaries rather than treating care as “just a job”. This is something I’m very passionate about. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and being attentive to their needs. I’m able to dedicate time throughout the day for walks, feeding, playtime, check-ins, medication if needed, and making sure pets feel comfortable and cared for. I’m someone who pays close attention to routines and details, so I understand the importance of consistency for animals. Whether a pet is energetic and playful or more shy and relaxed, I’m patient and adapt to what helps them feel safest and happiest. When caring for pets, I focus on keeping their routine as consistent, comfortable, and low-stress as possible. In a client’s home, I respect the pet’s normal schedule for feeding, walks, playtime, medication, bathroom breaks, and rest so they can feel secure in their familiar environment. I pay close attention to behavior, body language, and energy levels to make sure pets are comfortable and getting the care they need. I’m patient with shy or anxious animals and make sure they have space, attention, and calm interaction at their own pace. Safety and cleanliness are also important to me, and I make sure pets have a secure environment, fresh water, and plenty of attention and companionship while their owner is away.

About: I still have my childhood cat, he is currently 21years of age! That pretty much says it all! All jokes aside, Vincent has been our family cat for 21 years. He is well taken care of and he is a type 2 diabetic, which requires 2 injections daily which I am more than capable drawing up & injecting within a 12 hour window! Any question feel free to shoot me a message & I can meet up with you and your fur friends ❤️

Nikki was a wonderful find on this app, I've had some bad experiences with animal sitters in the past. She was prompt with her communication when I was asking all my initial questions before booking her. She has a wonderful energy and you can tell she truly loves animals. Her house was clean and well suited to taking care of multiple animals. The amount of supplies and variety of foods and treats she has for the animals was also impressive. When picking up my usally grumpy guy, he seemed right at home with Nikki. During my animals stay, Nikki was quick to reach out and ask how to deal with my skittish guy in the best way instead of making him uncomfortable. I really appreciate the work she put into taking care of my animal, even for such a short stay. Thank you Nikki, I'll be sure to book again if any of my animals need sitting!

About: What sets me apart from other pet sitters is my genuine love and respect for animals, paired with a calm, reliable presence that pets quickly trust. I tailor my care to each pet’s unique personality, whether that means energetic walks for dogs or quiet love for shy cats. I’m detail oriented, communicative, and always ensure your pet feels safe, happy, and loved in your absence. My experience includes senior pets, new borns, medication administration, and nervous animals who need extra patience. I treat every pet like family and take pride in creating a stress free, positive experience for both pets and their owners. Pet care is a true passion of mine, and with my part-time work schedule, I have the flexibility to give your pets the time, attention, and love they deserve. I structure my days around their needs, whether it’s a morning walk, midday check-in, or evening playtime and cuddles. Your pets won’t just be looked after, they’ll feel safe, comfortable, and cared for like family. I treat every pet like they’re my own. Safety and trust are at the heart of how I care for pets. My home is pet friendly, clean, and fully prepared for furry guests, with a secure, fenced in yard perfect for safe outdoor play and potty breaks. Inside, pets have cozy spots to relax and plenty of space to roam. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their routines closely to ensure they feel safe, comfortable, and right at home.

About: I've taken care of dogs, cats and guinea pigs since I was eight years old, caring for my own pets, as well as friends and families. I can provide great references! I recently took care of a dog and several cats while I was home over Christmas for two families that travelled during the break! I'm a very outdoors oriented person so if your dog loves to go on adventures we would be a good match! I take care in making sure that all dogs are treated with respect and that they are happy and well cared for. I am more than happy to give your dog a great experience, taking their needs and preferences into account. If your dog is good off leash I would love to take them to one of the off leash dog parks in and around the area. I make sure to treat every dog with respect and give them fun experiences that both they will enjoy and their owners will enjoy seeing! I’m currently visiting my family in Peterborough, with a fairly adaptable schedule that leaves me available most of the day, as well as weekends and overnights if needed! I will take great care of your pets in your own home or while walking them, I see pet sitting like nannying and will treat your pets with great respect and give them lots of love!

About: I'm not as new to professional pet caring now, but I'm constantly learning and I have respect and love for animals. I have cared for pet dog and cat from puppy to old age and I am always learning from experts on how to handle most situations that will arise. I am able to be extremely active and engaging with animals to ensure they are properly stimulated and socialized. I take my job very seriously as a guardian of a pet myself I know that they are as much family as pet. I will always take special care to listen to a pet's guardian's advice on how to care for their pet so that they are properly taken care of as they deserve and expect to be treated. I’m currently self employed and mainly work at night when my dogs are asleep. During the day I am free to look after not only my dogs but also other people’s pets as well. When I’m not working I’m often taking care of my dog’s needs. I follow instructions from pet owners and ask about their pet to find out what kind of care they need. Every dog has its own personality and needs and I do the best to treat them as their owner would treat them so their stay is as comfortable as possible.

Gretel took good care of my puppy Luna for the day. She constantly updated us with pictures and photos throughout the day. Being our first time leaving Luna alone, we were relieved that we can leave her somewhere she is comfortable and looked after well.

Bryan and Raisa are awesome!! I can’t recommend them enough! My pup Cash is always SO excited to spend time with them, which gives me so much peace of mind whenever I’m away at work for the day. I really appreciate how flexible they are with doggy daycare hours as I work long days I also really appreciate the update photos and messages while I’m gone — it’s so nice seeing how happy and comfortable he is. Reliable, caring, and genuinely amazing with dogs. Highly recommend!

About: Hi! We are Star Sitters here on Rover, with 6 years of professional pet care and 18 with our own animals. Someone is always here in our calm, safe, and dog friendly home so your dog can spend the day with company instead of being home alone. We do live with our loveable Boston Terrier, Gus, and we are often found hiking on dog friendly trails on the weekend or spending time at the lake. We are very active, enjoy being outside and think dogs should be too - Gus has a lot of energy so daily excercise is key already here. I work as a professional planner and Scott works from home and we are both free on weekends with flexible schedules. We spend a lot of love and time on Gus, who, like us, loves being around other dogs. We would be happy to meet you and your doggy in advance so you can get to know us. Emily works in the office four days per week just a few minutes from home, Scott works from home. Neither of us work on the weekend. Our home is save for any animal - we're smoke free, drug free with no children. Gus loves other dogs and always enjoys having a friend around. Our back yard is mostly fenced in and it's tucked behind. The front is also mostly fenced with a small garden fence.

About: I’ve spent my whole life caring for animals, and I truly can’t imagine a home without them. Over the years, I’ve raised and trained dogs from puppyhood—including golden retrievers, labs, and shepherd mixes—and loved them through every stage of life until their senior years. I’ve also cared for cats for more than 25 years, including fostering pregnant mothers and nursing newborn kittens. What really sets me apart is my experience with pets that need extra care: elderly, injured, or special-needs animals who require patience, strength, and compassion. Through volunteering with LAWS and the Humane Society, I’ve had the privilege of supporting animals in all kinds of situations. I’m active, reliable, and strong—I go to the gym regularly—and I’ll bring that same energy, love, and dedication to caring for your pets as if they were my own. Now that I’m semi retired, I have all the time in the world to dedicate to something I truly love—caring for animals. My days are wide open, which means I can easily adjust to your pet’s schedule for feeding, walks, playtime, or just keeping them company. Spending time with animals has always been one of my favourite pastimes, and it brings me joy to make them feel safe, happy, and cared for. Whether it’s a relaxed cuddle session with a senior cat, an energetic walk with a playful dog, or checking in throughout the day, I have the flexibility and the heart to give your pets the attention they deserve. When I care for pets in my home, I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and part of the family. I keep a calm, pet-friendly environment with lots of love, attention, and plenty of time for play or rest depending on their needs. If I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their routines closely, whether that means sticking to specific feeding times, administering medications, or keeping up with favourite activities. I know how important consistency is for animals, so I make it a priority to keep their day-to-day life as familiar and stress-free as possible. No matter the setting, I give each pet the patience, care, and affection I’d want for my own.

About: With over 15 years of hands-on experience working with animals, Jacob and I bring a calm, confident, and knowledgeable approach to every pet in our care. We are both experienced Rover pet care providers and share the same dedication to providing safe, reliable, and personalized care for every animal we meet. My background includes professional dog handling, dog training, and dog walking for a company, giving me experience with dogs of all breeds, sizes, temperaments, and energy levels. Together, Jacob and I have extensive experience caring for dogs, cats, reptiles, and other small furry animals, allowing us to confidently meet a wide variety of pet care needs. We are comfortable with feeding routines, enrichment activities, habitat maintenance, and administering medications when required. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine are always our top priorities. I am trained in dog CPR, and both Jacob and I prioritize safety, structure, and positive reinforcement in every interaction. Whether your pet needs a reliable walker, patient caregiver, or someone who understands behavior and individualized care, we tailor our services to fit their unique needs. Animals aren’t just a job for us—they’re our passion. We genuinely love building trust, providing enrichment, and ensuring every pet feels comfortable, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. With two dedicated and experienced caregivers, your pets receive extra attention, flexibility, and peace of mind. We offer flexible, around-the-clock availability to meet your pet care needs. Whether you need early morning walks, midday drop-ins, evening visits, overnight care, or last-minute bookings, were happy to accommodate a schedule that works best for you and your pet. I understand that every household runs differently, and pets don’t always stick to a 9–5 routine. That’s why I make myself available all hours of the day, including weekends and holidays, to provide consistent, reliable care when you need it most. Your pet’s routine, comfort, and well-being remain my priority, no matter the time. Safety, trust, and comfort are my top priorities when caring for pets in both my home and my client’s home. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, preferences, and any medical or behavioral needs to ensure consistency and reduce stress. I maintain a clean, calm, and pet-safe environment, closely supervise interactions, and follow feeding, exercise, and medication instructions exactly as provided. In a client’s home, I respect your space while keeping your pet’s routine as normal as possible — including walks, playtime, enrichment, and quiet rest. In my home, pets are treated like family, with a secure environment, structured care, and plenty of attention. I also monitor for any changes in behavior or health and communicate updates so you always feel confident and informed while you’re away.

About: I have enjoyed taking care of dogs and other pets from a young age. I like getting to know the unique qualities of each animal and enjoy providing an enriching environment full of activities for the active dog, or a quiet, calm space for the pets who take more time to settle in. Caring for, and socializing, puppies over a summer was one of the most memorable pet care times, as a family member was preparing to find homes for a litter. I'm currently off work for the summer and have lots of flexibility to care for your pets for overnight stays, walks, or drop in visits to your home. I have a fenced backyard and a park across the road with lots of walking trails around to accomodate all the needs or your furry friend. We do also have 1 friendly cat in the home.

About: I’m an active dog lover who spends my days walking my own energetic Blue Heeler, hiking local trails, and heading to the beach. I offer reliable dog walking, drop-in visits, and pet sitting with plenty of attention and care. I am home weeknight evenings and available all days on weekends. In summer I have full availability to meet your pets needs at any time! I can also offer training and enrichment if requested. My own dog can be slow to warm up to new dogs, but we have a large home and are happy to keep her fully separated for safety and comfort whenever needed - although she would love to play once comfortable. Your pet will get personalized care in a calm, loving environment! I am currently working full time as a teacher but I am home most days by 4:30pm. I have full availability to be home and care for your pets during the summer. I have a large home with plenty of space for your dog to run and play. I have my own dog who takes a bit of warming up but then will keep your fur baby company! I have an unfenced yard with a leash for potty breaks but can also go for lots of walks. I am happy to crate your pup if they are crate trained. I can offer training and enrichment as requested!

About: hiii, I’m Devin! (I’m new to Rover.com) I have (ongoing) experience volunteering at multiple humane societies, volunteering at an animal sanctuary, pet sitting, and I’m going into a Veterinary Technician program next year! I spend lots of my time caring for, playing with and loving animals with different personalities, needs, and comfort levels. Patience, consistency, and making animals feel safe and comfortable is very important. Volunteering and spending my time with animals reinforces how important it is to meet the needs of every specific individual animal. Im comfortable following specialized care and medical instructions carefully and paying close attention to changes in behaviour or needs. I’ve given prescribed medication to animals in many ways, many times so I’m 100% okay and accommodating to special care animals. I’m especially good with shy, anxious, or sensitive animals and try to create a calm, low-stress environment for them. I read, watch and learn lots about animals everyday. I have many certifications around animals as well; like the ‘Fear Free’ certification for example. What sets me apart is my experience and also that I genuinely care about animals as individuals and that I take the time to understand their individual personalities, routines, and boundaries rather than treating care as “just a job”. This is something I’m very passionate about. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and being attentive to their needs. I’m able to dedicate time throughout the day for walks, feeding, playtime, check-ins, medication if needed, and making sure pets feel comfortable and cared for. I’m someone who pays close attention to routines and details, so I understand the importance of consistency for animals. Whether a pet is energetic and playful or more shy and relaxed, I’m patient and adapt to what helps them feel safest and happiest. When caring for pets, I focus on keeping their routine as consistent, comfortable, and low-stress as possible. In a client’s home, I respect the pet’s normal schedule for feeding, walks, playtime, medication, bathroom breaks, and rest so they can feel secure in their familiar environment. I pay close attention to behavior, body language, and energy levels to make sure pets are comfortable and getting the care they need. I’m patient with shy or anxious animals and make sure they have space, attention, and calm interaction at their own pace. Safety and cleanliness are also important to me, and I make sure pets have a secure environment, fresh water, and plenty of attention and companionship while their owner is away.

About: I unfortunately have no experience other than I’ve had my cat for over a year now and my puppy for 7 months. I love them with all my heart. I have also been around dogs since the day I was born (all different breeds and ages). I work from home for my step dads business (Kodiak Metal Buildings) so this works perfectly as I need a little more money and have so much love for animals. I have a fenced in lawn and a 11 month golden retriever pup that loves every other animal! He doesn’t have a mean bone in his body.

About: Thank you for reading over my page! I've grown up with dogs, cats, rabbits, hamsters, and fish. And I love all animals. I'm most familiar with poodles, chow chows, and frenchies, but love all the funny and lovable characteristics every individual dog or cat possesses. I also have extensive experience with reactive dog, and can assist those who need walks with low interaction, special needs, training, etc. I currently work part time as a Law Clerk. This is why I am able to provide almost constant care in your home, dog walks, and whatever else you may need for your furry family members. Looking to help care for your little loved ones, and can also offer some special needs such as medication administration. I am most interested in house/pet sitting over weekdays and weekends. I can also accommodate last minute demands. Dog walking/hiking, drop-ins. All are welcome! Can't wait to meet you! Because I work part time my schedule is generally fairly open, except for school drop off and pick up during the school season. If your furry friend needs constant, uninterrupted care, please let me know and I will advise whether that will be possible. Your pets are your family, and I understand that. When I am caring for your pet I will always treat them with the utmost care and love, making sure any special needs or wants are met 100% of the time.

About: My love for dogs began at a young age, and throughout my life I have naturally taken on the responsibility of caring for them. From daily walks and feeding to grooming, hydration, and training, caring for dogs has always been something I genuinely enjoy. For many years, friends, family, and neighbours have trusted me to care for their pets while they are away, giving me valuable hands-on experience with dogs of all breeds, sizes, and energy levels. I have a natural ability to build strong relationships with dogs and often incorporate training into my interactions, including heel work, recall, leash manners, and fun tricks that help strengthen the bond between dogs and their owners. My goal is to provide reliable, compassionate, and professional care that gives pet owners peace of mind. I am available Monday through Friday for dog walking services, as well as 2–3 drop-in visits between 5:00 a.m. and 2:00 p.m. each weekday. I’m currently working part time and am available Monday–Friday, 5:00 a.m.–2:00 p.m. for 1-hour dog walks or drop-in visits, including potty breaks, feeding, hydration, companionship, and a 15-minute walk. To ensure the comfort and well-being of my own three cats, I do not offer boarding services for dogs or cats in my home. Instead, I provide personalized in-home care through 1–3 daily visits, allowing your pets to remain comfortable and relaxed in their familiar environment. For dogs who enjoy a little extra adventure, I have a fully insured and safety-equipped 2003 Honda Civic with dog seatbelt restraints. With your permission, I can take your pup on enriching walks and hikes along the beautiful trails at Emily Provincial Park, providing both exercise and mental stimulation while keeping safety my top priority.

About: Hi there! thanks for checking out my profile. Happy to have you here. I will leave a brief but detailed synopsis about myself and my experience working with pets. My goal is to help you make an informed decision regarding your pet's stay while you are away. My name is Vee. I am a university student full of vibrant energy and a love for pets. I have five years of documented experience in pet sitting. I have had pets of all sorts and breed under my care. Domestic pets such as cats, dogs, birds, horses and reptiles I have attended to. I am well vexed in this field as I volunteered with an animal shelter catering to older pets. I loved it! I am certified in CPR for pets should an emergency arise. I take pride in my vigilance and accessibility. I am a student of life and love to learn as much as I can and build amazing friendships with pet owners while taking great care of their pets! I would also like to describe myself as trustworthy. I am organized and my love for pets shows in various aspects. I have excellent multitasking and communication skills. I am also really good at recalling names. Cruelty-free enthusiast. Can’t wait to meet you and start taking care of these amazing pets! Thank you for trusting me to care for your babies while you take a well-deserved break 😊 I am available all year round to accept bookings and do my best to respond to bookings in a timely manner. I am honest and transparent about my hours and will not take any more bookings than necessary. I am extremely passionate about this business. I try not to overwhelm myself as this is important to me. I aim to be the best sitter I can be and strive for perfection each stay. I do not overcharge for stays and my low prices for stays are deliberate. I do this for the company as I enjoy having pets around while I study. It's a win-win. I formulated a couple of games to occupy and tire out your pet for the entirety of their stay. I will send photos of the entirety of the stay and keep in touch so you have peace of mind. I have spare toys in my care also, but always recommend bringing your own. I have had pets with severe anxiety and having a piece of home, be it a blanket or toys that smell like home helps a ton. As far as safety, I have a fenced yard in my apartment and will never let a pet off-leash especially if your pet does not have any recall. I enjoy practicing training with pets also and have successfully conditioned some to learn commands. I offer grooming services as well at no extra cost, except showers/baths. Your pet is in safe hands and you will have nothing to worry about while they are in my care. I will make sure of that.

Emma is fantastic with Murphy and he loves their walks together. Emma is very patient with him and understanding with his puppy ways. Always punctual, I feel very comfortable trusting Emma with my fur baby and I always know that he is getting a great walk in while I’m at work.

About: With a lifetime of experience caring for both cats and dogs - including seniors and my sweet “grand-dog” ,a special needs tripod, I bring patience, compassion, and a mature and reliable understanding to every visit.

I am semi retired working part-time supporting special needs adults a few days per week but love animals and would love to supplement my income by walking / staying in your home while you can’t be there and checking in with your dogs and caring for your cats . I have the freedom to also work weekends if needed . I drive so I am flexible . I am available to check in on your pets. I will provide food and water as well as play and enrichment to keep them happy and entertained. For cats, I am also available to empty litter boxes. I am available to cuddle your pet and spend some time with them while you cannot.

About: I'll treat your dog like it's my own. I love being around dogs. I have 15+ years caring for animals of all ages. I'm farm raised with lots of animals, always had a dog or two growing up and still continue to have my own. I'm confident with any age dog from puppies to seniors. I currently work part-time as a dog trainer and volunteer with the humane society with their dogs. I enjoy working with dogs to get them to really enjoy the walk. I do work with pullers and jumpers and try to get your dog to a level where you'll also be able to enjoy your walks. I aim to put a dent in your dog's exercise needs to give you that calm, fulfilled pup when you return. Your dog will be welcomed as a pack member with me where we will work to have mutual respect between myself and your dog(s). I take a firm, but fair, no nonsense approach to working with dogs. I live on a farm near town and do have open fields that your dog may run and play (if you and I both feel comfortable with your dog being off leash). I do also have a large fenced in area I use as well and a shop area that I often use for my training space. My girlfriend and I are both on Rover and often work together with different dogs including our own. Meet and Greets are always welcome to ensure I am the best fit for your dog. Please reach out if you have any questions.

About: What sets me apart from other pet sitters is my genuine love and respect for animals, paired with a calm, reliable presence that pets quickly trust. I tailor my care to each pet’s unique personality, whether that means energetic walks for dogs or quiet love for shy cats. I’m detail oriented, communicative, and always ensure your pet feels safe, happy, and loved in your absence. My experience includes senior pets, new borns, medication administration, and nervous animals who need extra patience. I treat every pet like family and take pride in creating a stress free, positive experience for both pets and their owners. Pet care is a true passion of mine, and with my part-time work schedule, I have the flexibility to give your pets the time, attention, and love they deserve. I structure my days around their needs, whether it’s a morning walk, midday check-in, or evening playtime and cuddles. Your pets won’t just be looked after, they’ll feel safe, comfortable, and cared for like family. I treat every pet like they’re my own. Safety and trust are at the heart of how I care for pets. My home is pet friendly, clean, and fully prepared for furry guests, with a secure, fenced in yard perfect for safe outdoor play and potty breaks. Inside, pets have cozy spots to relax and plenty of space to roam. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their routines closely to ensure they feel safe, comfortable, and right at home.

About: I unfortunately have no experience other than I’ve had my cat for over a year now and my puppy for 7 months. I love them with all my heart. I have also been around dogs since the day I was born (all different breeds and ages). I work from home for my step dads business (Kodiak Metal Buildings) so this works perfectly as I need a little more money and have so much love for animals. I have a fenced in lawn and a 11 month golden retriever pup that loves every other animal! He doesn’t have a mean bone in his body.

About: I am very excited to walk or dogsit your babies! I have many years experience and have had a few babies along the way. Rip my loves 🙏🏽💜 So excited to start this new adventure and meet many dog lovers along the way. I have plenty of time to commit to helping take care of your dog. Let me know what you are looking for and I can get back to you with what works. I have a safe environment that allows for 1 or 2 dogs to stay. I am very strict in your schedule for food consumption and treats. I believe dogs need to be outside regularly and it gives them exercise and a chance to run around. I have a dog that I share with my ex. I have him every other week so I have lots of time to commit to other dogs while I don't have him.

About: I've taken care of dogs, cats and guinea pigs since I was eight years old, caring for my own pets, as well as friends and families. I can provide great references! I recently took care of a dog and several cats while I was home over Christmas for two families that travelled during the break! I'm a very outdoors oriented person so if your dog loves to go on adventures we would be a good match! I take care in making sure that all dogs are treated with respect and that they are happy and well cared for. I am more than happy to give your dog a great experience, taking their needs and preferences into account. If your dog is good off leash I would love to take them to one of the off leash dog parks in and around the area. I make sure to treat every dog with respect and give them fun experiences that both they will enjoy and their owners will enjoy seeing! I’m currently visiting my family in Peterborough, with a fairly adaptable schedule that leaves me available most of the day, as well as weekends and overnights if needed! I will take great care of your pets in your own home or while walking them, I see pet sitting like nannying and will treat your pets with great respect and give them lots of love!

Alex showed up to my house in good time, was super friendly with my dog Clover, and was gentle but in charge when managing her on the leash. She asked all sorts of important, "get to know my dog," kind of questions that made me feel confident leaving Clover in her care. Will book again.

Excellent dog sitting home! Joey is going back for another 5 day stay in December and I’m sure he’ll be excited to see Gigi the resident queen pooch again!

Rhonda was absolutely amazing! She took such wonderful care of my older, reactive dog and handled everything with skill and kindness. Her experience with dogs really shows — Lollie was comfortable, happy, and even a little sad to see her go! Rhonda stayed at my home and left it spotless — so clean and tidy you wouldn’t have even known anyone had stayed. I have complete peace of mind leaving Lollie in her care and will definitely be inviting her back next time!

Christine is a very warm, very friendly caring person and it was obvious from the moment she met our two dogs they would be in wonderful hands with her! One of our dogs is very shy, yet she took to Christine very quickly. Their home is perfect in terms of the layout and with a fenced back yard. Christine sent us photos over the 3 day period and is very responsive in her replies. One of our dogs is challenged to navigate stairs however Christine had a gate to prevent her from going up the stairs and potentially hurting herself. We would definitely book Christine again to care for our two dogs!!

Dana & Robert were amazing! It was my first time leaving one of my dogs with someone I didn’t previously know as well as using the Rover app. Dana and Robert communicated incredibly well and set my mind at ease quickly. They were very flexible and accommodating with some schedules changes on my end. While I was away I received numerous updates on my dog’s day and well-being which eased my worry about leaving him and allowed me to have a relaxing and restful trip. He had the best time ever!! I truly thought he may not want to come home because of how much fun he was having with Dana, Robert and some of the other boarding dogs. I’m so happy to have found two kind and loving dog people to watch over my dog if I’m in need. I would 10/10 recommend as well as use their services again! Thank you again so so much!
