“I highly recommend Debra. Her main focus is providing the best care possible for your pet in every way. She looked after my Golden Retriever for 8 days and sleep on the couch beside her to ease her anxiety and stress. That is going over and above for the sake Bella's well being. I can't say enough good things about her. We will definitely book her again. Thank you so much Debra!!”
“Julianne was great for boarding out medium-large golden doodle for a couple of nights. She communicated with photos and texts to let us know how it was going and what they were up to. Julianne followed our feeding instructions to the letter.”
“Katia was great to deal with for a single night stay. Our dog was well cared for, we received numerous pictures, and he was in excellent spirits on our return. We won't hesitate to book with Katia again.”
“Krissy did an amazing job watching our two dachshunds! She was very accommodating to their needs and provided regular updates and photos. One of our dogs has anxiety and Krissy was very patient with him and took extra care to gain his trust. Thank you so much Krissy for taking such good care of Abbey and Milo, they will definitely be back!”
“Lisa was amazing with my 2 year old bouvier, Molly. I was sent pictures of her walking, resting, investigating Lisa's home and yard. I would definitely recommend her and will use her again if needed. It was Molly's first time away from family and she had never met Lisa before. I was nervous that Molly might cause problems, but she was very comfortable with Lisa. Thank you for such great care.”
“Geo and Amanda were great! Lots of pictures sent for updates the dogs were extremely comfortable and happy to be with them. We’ve already rebooked for the next time! Thanks so much”

“Once again Fisher had a great stay during our 2 week vacation. He always comes home happy and I don’t worry about him when we are gone. Dale is great with him & he is happy to see her when we drop him off. Thanks!”
“Amanda cared for my mom’s dog, Danny, for five weeks, and I truly don’t know what I would have done without her. She was an absolute lifesaver. From the moment she took him in, she kept me updated with regular messages and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind. She handled everything from pick‑ups, drop‑offs, and daily care with kindness, reliability, and genuine affection for Danny. It’s rare to find someone who treats your pet like their own, but Amanda did exactly that. She went above and beyond in every way, and I am so grateful for the care, attention, and love she gave him. I would recommend her without hesitation.”
“SO GREAT! Carlayne made me feel so comfortable right from the start. I introduced Sammie a week before his sleep over and I could instantly tell he was in the right hands! She sent lots of pictures and gave plenty of updates. Thank you so much Carlayne!!!!!”
“Our pug stayed overnight with Melanie and we were so happy with the care he received. Melanie responded promptly and also communicated with us and sent a video after we dropped him off, making sure we felt comfortable that he was in good hands. He made some new friends and can’t wait to go back!”
“Omg if you are ever in the area for a stay, Kristen is your gal! We have a rescue dog that we’ve only had for nearly 6 months and we booked a mini getaway for the weekend. Kristen was completely amazing! With updated photos throughout the day and updates about feeding, play time, etc., our Don Julio may have been hesitant in the beginning (who would blame him) but warmed up extremely quick and has some great new friends! Thank you again Kristen for watching our boy and I promise the next time we come up, we will plan a visit for him to reunite with his besties!”
“Liz is excellent service provider. We used her service first time, no complaints at all. She fed our dog on time shared tons of photos with us of him playing eating and sleeping every day. I highly recommend her.”
“Jordan is a wonderful sitter. She always goes a step and beyond. She's a natural with pets. She never disappoints! Shes simply awesome. Zoey loves you from day one. Need i say more ?”
“Kim was amazing with Teddy, had a welcoming dog friendly home and made the whole process super smooth! She also kept me in the loop with all the fun teddy was having throughout his stay which was so nice to see! Would highly recommend!!”
“Second time leo has went over and they have made him feel right at home! What a amazing and wonderful experience it is to have a family that cares so much for your dog like its their own family! Thank you so much! Highly recommended!”

“Debra was amazing with my kitten! It was my kittens first time alone and Debra made sure he didn’t escape outside, made sure he was fed and had water, scooped his litter, and gave him some very needed company and play time! Debra is incredibly attentive and communicative, I will absolutely have her come next time I need a pet sitter!”
About: I absolutely adore cats. I had a beautiful girl named peekaboo that you will see within my photos. I have also watched over and cared for many other cats as well. Since my home is mostly for doggie daycare & boarding services,I offer Mostly drop-in visits or house sitting for feline care, to ensure the comfort and safety of all of my guests.
“Kendra was an exceptional sitter for our bunny, Tofu! She provided us with updates and photos after each visit which were very reassuring as this was our first time away from our bunny and she went above and beyond, making sure Tofu’s litter boxes were cleaned/filled with hay and her space was properly set up for her to play in each day. We will definitely be requesting Kendra for future pet sits!”
“Karyn came through for us last minute when our plans changed. Our little dogs can be a handful. Karyn looked after our babies and I think that they looked forward to seeing her every day. Would recommend and will call again if the need arises.”
“Jenny was amazing!! She’s a great communicator and cares a lot about animals. I’m so glad she was able to care for my two cats! I came home and they were very happy and relaxed. Thanks Jenny!!”
About: I have always had a cat in the house and now that I’m away for school I would love to take care of someone else’s. Waking up to a fuzzy friend has always been a part of my daily routine. Pets are my life and I would love to make your pet a part of mine. I have experience overnight cat sitting for many family friends and my apartment is safe and cat friendly.
About: I have been surrounded by dogs my entire life and have always had a deep love and appreciation for animals. Growing up, I had the joy of caring for Shelties, Golden Retrievers, and Papillons, each teaching me the importance of patience, companionship, and understanding every dog’s unique personality. I currently have a Golden Retriever puppy who is very loved, well-socialized, and has the sweetest, most gentle personality. He is extremely well-behaved and will be starting puppy school in July to continue building his training and manners. My partner is also home and able to help care for him, ensuring every pet receives plenty of attention, supervision, and love. If your pup stays with me, they will be welcomed into a safe, caring, and dog-loving home. I want to be transparent that my puppy may be present during stays, but I always prioritize the comfort and needs of your pet. For walks, your dog will receive one-on-one attention — I will take your pup on their own walk rather than walking multiple dogs together. For drop-ins or visits, my focus will be on giving your pet personalized care, affection, and making sure they feel happy and comfortable while you’re away. Your pet will be treated like family here 🐾 I am a teacher and will be off during the months of July and August, which means I have a very flexible schedule and am available for pet care whenever needed. I have plenty of time to provide walks, drop-in visits, playtime, and companionship throughout the day. Starting in September, my availability will depend on whether I accept a teaching position (LTO), but I will always have availability in the evenings and on weekends. I am committed to providing reliable and consistent care and will communicate clearly with each pet parent to make sure your pet’s needs are met. Creating a safe, comfortable, and loving environment for every pet is my top priority. Whether I am caring for your pet in my home or visiting them in theirs, I focus on making sure they feel secure, happy, and well cared for. In my home, pets are welcomed into a calm, clean, and dog-loving environment where they receive lots of attention, affection, playtime, and supervision. I understand that every dog has their own personality, routine, and needs, and I will always take the time to make sure they feel comfortable. My Golden Retriever puppy may be present in my home, but he is extremely friendly, well-behaved, and continuing his training. When caring for pets in their own home, I respect their space and routines while providing dependable care, companionship, walks, feeding, playtime, and lots of love. I know pets feel most comfortable with familiarity, so I aim to keep their normal schedule and environment as consistent as possible. I will always communicate with pet parents, provide updates, and make sure you feel confident knowing your furry family member is safe and cared for while you’re away. 🐾

“Danielle was great.She made both our dogs feel at home and cared for, including our special needs Maizie. A kind woman with very calm energy. I highly recommend her doggy daycare!”
About: Having personally cared for two beloved dogs and my commitment to take care of them makes me the perfect choice for your dog sitting needs. I am currently working part-time which means I am very flexible with my schedule. Usually afternoon or morning time will be a great time ! In my home or a client's home, I prioritize a safe and comfortable environment for the doggies. I ensure they receive their meals on schedule, following any dietary requirements or restrictions. Regular walks, playtime, and exercise to keep them active and happy. Regular cleaning of food and water dishes, litter accident clean-up. Keeping clients informed with photos and update always! My goal is to create a safe, nurturing, and fun environment, whether in my home or the client's, ensuring that the pets feel loved and well taken care of.
“Our dog Rocco had the time of his life hanging out with Lisa and Andrew. He had two back to back day care stays. Returning for day two he leaped from our car and tugged me towards Lisa’s door and couldn’t wait for her to answer the door bell. A very good sign he was looking forward to all the love and play time he had with them. Also great communication and sweet pics! 100 percent —high recommendation.”
“Susan was great with Hope. Hope fell in love with her immediately because Susan radiates a warm love for dogs that they can sense. Communication with Susan was easy, prompt online responses, clear and concise. I would highly recommend Susan although selfishly I wish that she were always available just for me and Hope lol. Susan is dedicated to giving our dogs her full attention and I never worried once while Hope was there.”
“Our Lucy was SOOOO excited to see Carlayne again! She always has so much fun! What a great feeling to know when you have to leave your pet that they’re having a great day too!”
“We felt very comfortable leaving Dora with Michelle after meeting her and Tyson. Michelle is very relaxed and has a broad knowledge of dogs and demeanor. I was provided with regular updates and pics of our girl Dora. Dora spent the night with Michelle, her husband and and their dog Tyson. Dora came home happy and tired! Lol. After Dora’s first night away, I would recommend Michelle to any pet mom or dad. ?”
“Ww had a great experience from the very beginning. Michelle is very attentive to details and followed all our requests. She kept us informed at all times how our pup was doing. She also treated him and our home like her own. We are very careful who to trust our furbaby with and Michelle made a great connection. We will definitely keep coming back and she's now part of our family. Thank you Michelle you deserve more than a 5 star rating. You really go above and beond and we love it!”
“I was looking for an overnight sitter for my Ausie Mix & came a cross Jeanne’s profile. From the moment I saw her profile I new that I could have trust in her to watch my fur baby. We met up to see if Aura would be a good fit with her fur baby Marla & if the vibe was right between them; this went well and since this was Auras first time in someone else’s care she recommended Aura went for a day care visit. We did this & Aura had a BLAST! I was really worried leaving Aura, but she got along with the other dogs right away and seemed right at home at Jeanne’s the moment she got there. We got updates about her day with photos which helped ease our mind while she was away. At pick up you could tell Aura had a great time and a busy day- She was so tuckered out. Our minds are at ease and we are looking forward to leaving Aura with Jeanne, her husband and Marla while we go on a trip; knowing she will be in great hands!”
“Hanna was very sweet with Coco Bean. We appreciated the photo updates during the day which showed our girl having fun and settling in at Hanna's house. Would be happy to book again!”
“Amanda was wonderful with Steve! She’s dependable, caring and knowledgeable on what she does. Steve had an amazing time playing with the other pups, as we just moved he’s been a little anxious but he came home super happy and exhausted. I’d recommend her to anyone, can’t wait to bring Steve over again - I know he’ll be looking forward to it ?”
About: I’ve been caring for animals since I was 12 years old and grew up surrounded by dogs my entire life. Over the years, I’ve also cared for a chameleon, hamster, and ferret, which gave me experience with a wide range of pet needs and personalities. I adopted my dog Maia 3 years ago, and she’s full of energy with a big personality, which has taught me a lot about active dogs, structure, and keeping playtime both fun and safe. I also adopted my cat when I was 20. She was very feisty, and no one else wanted to handle her, but I built a strong bond with her over time. We also went through a lot together, including managing her diabetes, so I’m very comfortable and experienced with giving medication and administering insulin injections when needed. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I always aim to provide calm, attentive, and loving care so every animal feels safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away❤️ Pet care is already a natural part of my daily life. I'm currently working remote so my schedule is fairly flexible. I’m also experienced with more specific care, including administering medication and injections when needed, so I’m comfortable adjusting routines based on each pet’s requirements. Overall, I’m very organized and flexible, and I genuinely enjoy having animals as part of my everyday routine rather than it feeling like an extra task. In my home, pets are treated like part of the family and kept in a calm, safe, and structured environment. I have a fenced-in backyard where dogs can run, play, and get energy out safely, along with regular walks and supervised outdoor time. I follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, exercise needs, and any special care instructions. In a client’s home, I respect their space and make sure pets feel secure in their familiar environment.

I can't wait to meet yours! I'm an online part time student so I have quite a bit of time to spend with your pets, I love the outdoors and the indoors so I'm delighted to spend time with your pet. From the moment that I'm with your pet, it will have my full attention. I'm always careful about flight risks when entering and exiting. When exiting I'm always careful to make sure all exits are closed properly. On walks I tend to stay away from other dogs for your dogs for your dog's safety. I always bring a water bottle and a dish to make sure your dog stays hydrated!

About: I've been around animals my whole life and have helped my parents take care of various ones. Being around them my whole life has made me understand them a lot more and give them the care they need.

I'm usually available whenever I am needed. I'm always one for a keen sense of detail and am able to keep track of things when needed. I like to be organized and always keep a watch of things.

My passion for caring for animals began as a teenager, when I started pet sitting for family and friends and volunteering at the local Humane Society. Having had pets my entire life I understand how important it is to find someone you can truly trust. I am comfortable with large and small experience with large breeds Whether it's daily walks, overnight stays, or simply keeping your pets company, I always strive to make them feel safe, loved, and right at home. After taking an early retirement from my career as a Developmental Support worker teaching and advocating for children and adults with special needs, I'm now able to dedicate full time my passion for caring for animals. My yard is fully fenced and I have a clean, calm and relaxed, safe home and backyard to help your pet feel calm and relaxed. Having worked for many years as a Developmental Support Worker I understand patience and compassion. Whether your pet enjoys active play, long walks or quiet companionship I'll make sure they get the care and attention they need.
About: I’ve been around dogs and cats from a very early age. Caring for them has always been a meaningful part of my life, so having animals around has always felt natural to me and taught me that every animal is unique and deserves consistency, attention, and genuine care so they feel happy, relaxed and loved even when you’re not around. I treat every dog or cat like they are my own. Since I’m retired, my schedule is very flexible, which means I can spend quality time with your pets throughout the day. I truly enjoy incorporating their care into my routine and making sure they feel comfortable and loved. I look after your pets right in their own home, where they’re happiest. I stick to their normal routine and give them lots of attention, playtime, and affection. I treat every pet like family and every home with respect.

“I highly recommend Debra. Her main focus is providing the best care possible for your pet in every way. She looked after my Golden Retriever for 8 days and sleep on the couch beside her to ease her anxiety and stress. That is going over and above for the sake Bella's well being. I can't say enough good things about her. We will definitely book her again. Thank you so much Debra!!”
“Julianne was great for boarding out medium-large golden doodle for a couple of nights. She communicated with photos and texts to let us know how it was going and what they were up to. Julianne followed our feeding instructions to the letter.”
“Lisa was amazing with my 2 year old bouvier, Molly. I was sent pictures of her walking, resting, investigating Lisa's home and yard. I would definitely recommend her and will use her again if needed. It was Molly's first time away from family and she had never met Lisa before. I was nervous that Molly might cause problems, but she was very comfortable with Lisa. Thank you for such great care.”
“Geo and Amanda were great! Lots of pictures sent for updates the dogs were extremely comfortable and happy to be with them. We’ve already rebooked for the next time! Thanks so much”
About: 🐾 Hi, I’m Kaelyn! 🐾 I’m a reliable and caring pet lover with experience caring for both dogs 🐶 and cats 🐱 of all ages, sizes, and personalities. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, cuddles on the couch, or simply sticking to their routine, I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. ❤️ When I’m not spending time with furry friends, I work full-time in finance with the Ontario Provincial Police 💼. My career has taught me the importance of responsibility, trustworthiness, attention to detail, and clear communication—qualities I bring to every pet I care for. I know how important it is to leave your pet with someone you can trust, and I’ll treat your pets as if they were my own. 🦴🐾 I’ll also keep you updated with plenty of photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. 📸💕 I can’t wait to meet you and your furry family members! 🐕🐈 Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine! I work full-time in finance during regular business hours, so I’m available for morning, evening, and weekend walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting. I genuinely enjoy spending my free time with animals, and I make sure every pet gets the attention, exercise, and companionship they need. When caring for a pet, I plan my schedule around their routine to ensure they’re fed on time, get plenty of bathroom breaks, exercise, playtime, and lots of affection. I only accept bookings that I know I can fully commit to, so every pet receives the dependable, high-quality care they deserve. 🐾❤️ I believe every pet is happiest when they can stick to their normal routine, so I take the time to learn about each pet’s individual needs and preferences. Whether I’m caring for your pet in your home or mine, I’ll make sure they receive plenty of love, attention, exercise, and mental stimulation throughout the day. I’ll follow your instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications (if needed), and any house rules you’ve established. I understand that every pet has a unique personality, so I’m happy to adjust my care to match their energy level and comfort—whether that’s an adventurous walk, a game of fetch, or relaxing with lots of cuddles. Communication is important to me, so you can expect regular updates, photos, and messages while you’re away. My goal is to make your pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved, while giving you complete peace of mind knowing they’re in caring and reliable hands. 🐾💕
“Once again Fisher had a great stay during our 2 week vacation. He always comes home happy and I don’t worry about him when we are gone. Dale is great with him & he is happy to see her when we drop him off. Thanks!”
“Amanda cared for my mom’s dog, Danny, for five weeks, and I truly don’t know what I would have done without her. She was an absolute lifesaver. From the moment she took him in, she kept me updated with regular messages and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind. She handled everything from pick‑ups, drop‑offs, and daily care with kindness, reliability, and genuine affection for Danny. It’s rare to find someone who treats your pet like their own, but Amanda did exactly that. She went above and beyond in every way, and I am so grateful for the care, attention, and love she gave him. I would recommend her without hesitation.”
“SO GREAT! Carlayne made me feel so comfortable right from the start. I introduced Sammie a week before his sleep over and I could instantly tell he was in the right hands! She sent lots of pictures and gave plenty of updates. Thank you so much Carlayne!!!!!”
“Our pug stayed overnight with Melanie and we were so happy with the care he received. Melanie responded promptly and also communicated with us and sent a video after we dropped him off, making sure we felt comfortable that he was in good hands. He made some new friends and can’t wait to go back!”
“Omg if you are ever in the area for a stay, Kristen is your gal! We have a rescue dog that we’ve only had for nearly 6 months and we booked a mini getaway for the weekend. Kristen was completely amazing! With updated photos throughout the day and updates about feeding, play time, etc., our Don Julio may have been hesitant in the beginning (who would blame him) but warmed up extremely quick and has some great new friends! Thank you again Kristen for watching our boy and I promise the next time we come up, we will plan a visit for him to reunite with his besties!”
“Liz is excellent service provider. We used her service first time, no complaints at all. She fed our dog on time shared tons of photos with us of him playing eating and sleeping every day. I highly recommend her.”
“Jordan is a wonderful sitter. She always goes a step and beyond. She's a natural with pets. She never disappoints! Shes simply awesome. Zoey loves you from day one. Need i say more ?”
“Kim was amazing with Teddy, had a welcoming dog friendly home and made the whole process super smooth! She also kept me in the loop with all the fun teddy was having throughout his stay which was so nice to see! Would highly recommend!!”
About: Besides having pets my whole life I would say that my special skills include setting up cages, giving accurate dosages of medication and providing long walks and play times. Crate trained or not, I have been with all ages and types/sizes of dogs. Pet care sits my schedule because and a person of routine I enjoy getting to come home to someone. Walks, exercise, and giving entertainment are all these daily I try and accomplish. My home is large, each of the 3 levels have enough enough room to feel spacious. The yard front and back are both large. We have a pool that is swim friendly as-well and a caged in area for any off leash fun. Pets are welcome on the furniture just because that’s always how I had it when I grew up. I mean they are part of the family of course they can come chill and watch a movie. We are also near a park and lake and live In an avenue so almost no traffic.
“Sharon is a very experienced dog sitter and is reassuring - she sends updates that put your mind at ease and my dog and I hope to stay a member of her pack for a long time to come!”
“We have nothing but fantastic things to say about Sharon. We left our Lily with Sharon for 10 days while we were on vacation and she was very well looked after while we were away. Sharon sent us frequent messages and photos/videos which was a really nice for us to see that Lily was happy and enjoying herself. We would highly recommend Sharon to others and will definitely book her again in the future!! 10+++”
