“Our experience boarding our dogs with Debra for a weekend was great from the start. She provided a safe, dog friendly home, well set up for caring for our dogs. She is very caring and showed a love toward our pets. The photos shared over their visit showed how happy and relaxed they were. I will arrange visits with Debra again when we need dog care. Thanks 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.”
“Adi and Ipshita took incredible care of our mini sheepadoodle, introducing him to new friends, giving him lots of exercise and cuddles, and even a trim (with our permission of course). They treated him as if he were their own and he really bonded with both of them. Highly recommend! 😀”
“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.”
“We have had Amanda watch our dog twice in the past few months. Roxie was well taken care of and Amanda was very accommodating. We will ask Amanda to watch our girl again. Thanks.”
“Ruby had a fantastic stay with Danielle over the weekend; she didn’t even want to leave when we got there to pick her up! Danielle took amazing care of Ruby and instantly made her feel right at home. She gave her lots of attention and affection and lots of photo updates. She truly is the dachshund whisperer! I would definitely recommend her for dogs with separation anxiety. We’re very grateful she was available!”
“This was Piki’s third time staying with Kimberly and she had an amazing time! Kimberly always takes such great care of her and gives her the time she needs to feel comfortable in a different place.”
“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!!!!!”
“Shannon was the best! She took time to meet with us ahead of the visit, sent us daily pics & updates on Arlo & was incredibly flexible with pick up & drop off times. We felt so comfortable leaving Arlo with her!”
“Krissy was a great fit for boarding our older terrier for a weekend away. She was very responsive and shared lots of pics our our little guy having fun with the other dogs. We'd definitely use Krissy again!”
“My dog Leroy is a very nervous pup and Sheila treated him like her own dog. I wasn't worried about him on our whole vacation because I knew he was being taken care of. She provided lots of walks for him, gave him lots of cuddles and he was comfortable around her, even providing tail wags (which not many people get). We hope to book again soon!”
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.
“Natalia was extra accommodating when we we're in a pinch. She went above and beyond to help out when we needed her. I definitely recommend her to anyone who needs their puppy to be taken care of by extra special person.”
“Marc, Alysia and boys were an amazing family for our 2 dogs. They got all the extra love and care they needed and I’m so thankful. The regular pictures and updates made me feel so secure knowing they were doing well. Almost too well!!! I think my puppy Sunny would have been happy to move in permanently! Thanks again!”

About: I’ve been fostering dogs for over 10 years (hundreds of dogs at this point), adult dogs, seniors, whelping moms, and (my personal favourite) puppies. I also have three dogs and a cat of my own, so my life is basically one big fur party.

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.
“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.”
“Just back from another trip and so glad to have had Debra to come and take care of my kitties while I was away. I have so much peace of mind knowing they are in good hands. I also appreciate the excellent communication I have with Debra. Right from the moment of booking, she is always quick to reply and confirm, and the updates and photos she sends while I am away are much appreciated. She has also been so accommodating when, like on this trip, my travel plans have had to be tweaked last minute. Thanks so much Debra… you’re the best!”
“This was our first time having Lee take care of our 2 cats. Attention to detail was great, prompt with the timing, and the cats were very happy to have the attention (and food). Will definitely book again.”
“Maria was wonderful. Very kind, understanding, and helpful. She was great with my cats and was easy to communicate with. She was able to administer oral medication to my cat Kovu. Thank you Maria for your reliable help!”
“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!”

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.
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.

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.

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. 🐾

“Julianne was great with Cooper, she was super communicative and sent updates throughout, and her home and backyard are super dog friendly! I would absolutely book with her again for daycare.”
“Debra was great with Cooper and I would definitely book again! Lots of pictures, a great fenced backyard for playing, great communicator, and she made sure Coop was happy and comfortable for his stay.”
“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 looked after our miniature dachshund Ruby last minute for several hours while my husband and I went to a birthday party, and she did an amazing job making Ruby feel safe and comfortable. Ruby had a great time and she was all smiles and tail wags when we picked her up. Susan has a lovely home and I think Ruby really enjoyed herself there. I would highly recommend her services :)”
“Carlayne was so great with our pup and so accommodating! We were able to relax at the spa, knowing Koda was in good hands. He came back to us a happy dog! Would definitely recommend!”
“Danielle is amazing, and Pilot loves her. She has walked him before, and we just recently did daycare. The process, response time and experience was wonderful. My boy came home happy and tired. Thank you, Danielle. We will certainly be booking regularly.”
“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.

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.
“We found Marc and Alysia here at Rovers. It's our first time to book from here, and our first time to leave Coco with Marc and family. They were such sweethearts to Coco, they treated Coco as part of their family and gave him lots of love and care. They even took Coco out for a walk and played with him. They were very accommodating with my schedule and was very patient with Coco. They gave frequent updates through photo and text as well, making me feel super assured to leave coco with them.We highly recommend them if you plan to leave your furbabies with them. Thank you, Marc and Aylsia, for taking care of Coco !!”

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.
About: Now that I’m home for the summer I have plenty of time to spend with your furry friends. I live with two cats and one energetic puppy. My qualification list is extensive, as I have plenty of experience in pet sitting and walking, as well as experience working in a Veterinary office. I’m currently working part time and my shifts end around noon so my schedule is very flexible. I have lots of free time to spend with your pet and I spend lots of time at home so they will never feel alone. I have a large fenced yard to take pets out to run around and use the bathroom. I live in a large, clean, safe, and pet friendly household. Your pet will get plenty of attention and plenty of love here.
About: I have done previous volunteer work for The Pawliday Inn as well as the Humane Society, I have trained my families big dogs my whole life, including a Chocolate Lab, 4 Pitbull mixes, 3 Bullmastiff, a Greyhound, a German Shepard, my Great Dane and many others. I had a Great Dane for 9 years so I am very used to the larger breeds and honestly prefer them but I also grew up with a dachshund, a mini poodle, and a chihuahua so I don’t mind the little guys either. :) I have a neutered male Belgian Malinois Red Labrador Retriever mix who will be 4 June 1st which is bitter sweet. I can train your dog many things and know lots of tips and tricks that I can teach you to make dog life a million times easier, thank you for your time. :)) I am not working at the moment so I am available to hangout and play with your pet(s) all day everyday for playtimes, I have lots of passed experience of all animals and breeds! I am available pretty much 24/7 and love anything to do with animals, I am always ready to go for a dog park visit and love all breeds, no discrimination around here!!
“Danielle has been absolutely fantastic with my dog Misty the last couple of weeks. Misty can be a bit anxious with new people but, Danielle bonded with her quickly and was always happy to spend time with her. I have felt fortunate to find someone so kind and patient to take Misty on walks. Danielle has been responsive and professional as well. I highly recommend her services to anyone looking for care for their pup!”

I have many years of experience and will provide a great service :) I currently work part time so I have lots of free time to care for your pets! Message me about an inquiries and I will be happy to respond I currently have no pets in my home and it is a very safe fenced in property. More than happy to come to your home to accommodate you as well as take your fur babies on long walks!

About: I have hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats through overnight stays, drop-in visits and dog walking. I’ve cared for pets with many different personalities, from energetic and playful to shy, nervous and anxious. I’m patient and take the time to let each pet become comfortable with me at their own pace. I follow their regular routines, including feeding, walks, potty breaks, playtime and lots of love and attention. I especially love seeing a shy/anxious pet begin to trust me and become my little shadow. Building relationships with pets and having families trust me to care for them again is one of my favourite parts of pet sitting. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. As a kindergarten educator, I’m available for morning visits before work, evenings, weekends, holidays, and overnight stays during the school year. During the summer, I have much greater flexibility and am available throughout the day, allowing me to accommodate a wider range of schedules and your pet’s routine. I plan my schedule carefully to ensure every pet receives the time, attention, and loving care they deserve. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being are always my top priorities. I believe pets are happiest in the comfort of their own home, where they can maintain their familiar routine and surroundings. I take the time to get to know each pet’s personality, needs, and preferences so I can provide calm, personalized care tailored to them. Before any booking, I offer a free Meet & Greet so we can get to know each other, discuss your pet’s routine, and ensure we’re the right fit for one another. I also ask all pet parents to complete a detailed intake form, which helps me learn about your pet’s routine, medical needs, preferences, and any special instructions so I can provide the best care possible. For dog walking clients, I also like to do a short practice walk so your dog can get comfortable with me before our first scheduled walk. I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages throughout each visit, so you can have peace of mind knowing your furry family member is in caring, trustworthy hands.
About: I’ve grown up with dogs and cats my entire life, I take the biggest pride in getting kisses & affection from all animals, I just want them happy at the end of the day! I love helping others when needed, I currently do this full time as a career opportunity so I always find time for all pet care needs as that is what I devote my time to doing. I have a fenced in yard, I personally have two cats as of now but they indoors for most parts unless they join me in the morning for coffee on the porch. At my clients home I go by what they would do and respect all rules of their home.

“Our experience boarding our dogs with Debra for a weekend was great from the start. She provided a safe, dog friendly home, well set up for caring for our dogs. She is very caring and showed a love toward our pets. The photos shared over their visit showed how happy and relaxed they were. I will arrange visits with Debra again when we need dog care. Thanks 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.”
“Adi and Ipshita took incredible care of our mini sheepadoodle, introducing him to new friends, giving him lots of exercise and cuddles, and even a trim (with our permission of course). They treated him as if he were their own and he really bonded with both of them. Highly recommend! 😀”
“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.”
“We have had Amanda watch our dog twice in the past few months. Roxie was well taken care of and Amanda was very accommodating. We will ask Amanda to watch our girl again. Thanks.”
“Ruby had a fantastic stay with Danielle over the weekend; she didn’t even want to leave when we got there to pick her up! Danielle took amazing care of Ruby and instantly made her feel right at home. She gave her lots of attention and affection and lots of photo updates. She truly is the dachshund whisperer! I would definitely recommend her for dogs with separation anxiety. We’re very grateful she was available!”

“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!!!!!”
“My dog Leroy is a very nervous pup and Sheila treated him like her own dog. I wasn't worried about him on our whole vacation because I knew he was being taken care of. She provided lots of walks for him, gave him lots of cuddles and he was comfortable around her, even providing tail wags (which not many people get). We hope to book again soon!”
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.
“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.”
“I highly recommend Hanna. She took such good care of my dogs. Both my dogs have separation anxiety but she made them both very comfortable. I could tell they were both extremely happy. She sent us pics everyday. I couldn't have asked for a better experience. Would certainly be going back to her in the future as well.”
“Molly and Georgia were absolutely wonderful! 🐾❤️ From the moment we met, I felt like I was leaving Spencer and Rogue with trusted family. I knew right away they would love my dogs as much as I do—and my dogs loved them instantly! They were so accommodating, caring, and wonderful to communicate with. I couldn’t have asked for better sitters and would highly recommend them to anyone! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“Lynee was great with Eevee! She was attentive and patient. Eevee had an awesome time and even went home with a homemade bandana. For sure recommend Lynne; we know we’ll be using her service next time!”
“Kristen did a great job looking after Obi. He had a great time playing with Ellie and the other dogs and we loved getting the photo updates. We were never worried about him and were very happy to know he was well cared for.”
