Personalized care for your dog or cat - Renfrew

“Cindy and her husband were great hosts for my dogs. I was a little worried about our great dane and how he would do because he is a little grumpy. Cindy handled it very well and just let him settle in. Both my dogs were happy, and well taken care of. I would highly recommend Cindy to take care of any dog. We plan to us her again in future.”

“Sarah was wonderful with my pup, Nessa. Lots of space for adventures, puppy friends to play with, lots of updates and pics. She really cares about the dogs, and wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again. 2 thumbs up, 5 stars, and 10 out of 10”

Adam T.

“April is an amazing person.. she went above and beyond to look after our fur baby Oscar. He was so happy staying with her and playing with her little fur babies! April’s husband Alan was just as supportive as her. These guys are real gems!”

Krish S.

“Melissa is a caring and sweet person who took wonderful care of our girl for a couple of days. She was very accommodating and responsive and has an obvious love for animals. We will definitely bring Gwen back to Melissa again if we go out of town and need a pet sitter!”

Alexis M.

“Wonderful experience for both myself and my dog. Katie’s first time being boarded and I was anxious about it, but Trudy was so great to us both. She made me feel safe and relaxed about the whole experience. Katie really seemed to really enjoy herself and her new pals. Would definitely recommend to anyone!!”

Heather P.

“Suzanne and Adrian were the best host for our dog. Our dog chewed its leash but they were kind enough to get a replacement and a bonus toy :-). They were great in accommodating our last minute request and they were sure to give us heads up and updates of our dog every day. Keep up good job S&A”

About: Hey! I’ve had pets in my home my whole life (from hamsters to large breed dogs). My family fostered animals from the Ottawa Humane Society for 10 plus years. I have experience with all kids of fur babies :) I work from home Monday-Friday so I have lots of flexibilty. I live in a quiet community perfect for dog walks, and have a yard for supervised potty breaks. My home is very pet friendly. I have no issues with pet hair on furniture or the occasional mess. I have my own three legged kitty who is dog friendly. I love to give affection to pets and allow them on my furniture.

“Thank you very much Jen. Jen was friendly, engaged and took excellent care of Charlotte. This was our dog's first time with Jen, and I would highly recommend her and trust her with our dog again.”

Allison H.

“Ashley treated Rooster like family the minute she met him. Her communication, understanding, flexibility and professional is top tier! She saved us when we were in a pinch and made Rooster feel right at home! Thank you!”

Darby C.

“Oz was amazing! Great communication throughout Zaks stay, nice long walks and lots of cuddles provided! Zak quickly and easily slid into Oz’s as if he was home. Oz treated Zak as if he was his own, the personal, one on one, was fantastic! Highly recommend Oz Wheeler”

About: Shortly after moving to Renfrew, I rescued my dog Sage in July 2024. She is from Baffin Island, Nunavut—and I was initially told that she was a husky but she never grew! Given her size and demeanour, we believe her to be a Shiba Inu mix—we just aren’t sure how she ended up in the Arctic! About me: I have always loved animals, and I took this passion into account when choosing my first home. The house has a very large fenced-in yard that Sage loves to roam freely in. I enjoy spending much of my time in the backyard, whether in the garden or playing with Sage. Since I have all this space, and the time, I figured it would be a fun and rewarding opportunity to welcome other pets into my space on occasion, overnight on weekends or during the day on Tuesdays and Fridays when I work from home. I am also quite active, and would be happy to have another pup joining Sage and I on our walks! My partner and I both work full-time, though I work from home on Tuesdays and Fridays. I am also often available on weekends, allowing me to provide dogs with consistent attention and care. I am very adventurous with my own dog, taking her on camping trips, hikes, canoes and SUPs—she does it all and loves it! I am very active and take Sage on at least two walks per day on weekdays, also playing in the yard for about an hour each day. On weekends, I tend to go on longer walks or hikes in the area, and sometimes go to the cottage for an evening or two, where my dog will join me on snowshoe trips in the winter or boat rides in the summer. All in all, Sage is very spoiled and has my attention all the time—I love her so much and I would be happy to have her make friends with the other dogs in the area, which would be treated with a paralleled affection! As mentioned, I have a very large fenced yard which will allow your dog to play with my dog for as long as they want! My dog has free range of the house, and sleeps in bed with my partner and I (spoiled!!!). I would be happy to respect any rules that you have for your own pet when it comes to food, crating, training, etc. Our dog does her business outside in the yard, and it is preferred that your dog does the same (no pee pads). Your dog can be dropped off whenever works best for you, or I can pick them up if nearby enough. I can provide all-day daycare with two walks and free range of the backyard (with close supervision) on Tuesdays and Fridays (morning drop-off with evening pickup), or I can watch your dog all weekend (Friday morning to Sunday evening). During all of these times I will be home, but may need to leave the house for a maximum of two hours to go get groceries, etc. My dog is very playful, so ideally your dog is also playful and medium-high energy. I can of course watch lower-energy dogs, but would want to make sure they get along with my rambunctious pup first!

“We were a bit nervous leaving our 10.5yr old Lab, 1. because she is getting older, stubborn, and occasionally "whiny", and 2. since she hasn't even been in a kennel since before COVID. We met Allison and her daughter when we brought Darva for a first check suggested by Allison, that made sense to see if our dogs had innate antipathies,and could be civil with each other. All went well. A few days later we brought our dog over and left her while we had a day out of town. Allison sent us a picture of our dog to show that she was fine - and our dog was actually looking at the camera, which was unusual since she normally refuses when anyone points a "soul-sucker" in her direction, and turns her head away We found the care and the place good for our dog and know that Allison did all she could to alleviate any of our concerns..”

“Excellent services from Veronica! Very kind and caring person, took amazing care of Pekoe, our one-eyed four-toothed rescue dog! We got a daily update and photo while we were out of the country to show our perpetually sleeping potato was happy and healthy!! It really eased our minds and hearts while we were away! Pekoe is a timid little creature that does not care for most people, usually keeping her distance and sleeping in her box, but was quickly accepting of Veronica, sleeping with her on the couch and overnight! It was quite amazing to see, and brought us great ease!”

Ashen R.

“Stuart made my two dogs feel right at home from the moment they arrived, until the moment they left. In fact, they were both quite comfortable with staying! Our dogs are quite spoiled and babied, and we were happy to find somewhere that made them comfortable and allowed them to feel at home while away.”

About: About Ricardo I have over 8 years of experience as a dog sitter, walker and Behaviorist in Mexico. I’ve had dogs since I was a child, and I’ve always had a natural ability to understand and connect with them. Over 10 years ago, when my dog Horchata joined my life, she was energetic and needed guidance. I took a diploma in Spain to learn how to help her become balanced and confident. Later, friends began asking me to care for their dogs while they travelled, and they were impressed to see how their pets improved after staying with me for a few weeks. That experience motivated me to dedicate my life to dog care, something I enjoy. I currently work as a Kennel Assistant, caring for dogs of all ages and personalities. This role gives me hands-on experience with routines, enrichment, feeding, safety, and observing behavior changes. I have availability on Tuesdays and Wednesdays to care and/or for a great walk. Although I live in an apartment, I know the value of frequent walks and I take them seriously. I stay attentive to each dog’s needs and adapt to their routine and personality. I’m available every day and almost all the time since I work from home, which makes this the perfect activity for me. I recently left a two-year job to dedicate myself fully to pet care again. Although I live in an apartment, I know how important frequent walks are, and I take them seriously. I always stay attentive to each dog’s needs and can easily adapt to every pup’s routine and personality.

About: Hi! I offer high-quality, personalized dog care with a fun, active touch. My fiancé, Matt and I are in the in between stage of getting dogs of our own, both grew up with dogs and cats. We currently have one cat- Mocha, 2 years old and dog friendly. She has been around a lot of dogs! I’m confident, reliable, and love keeping dogs engaged—whether that’s long walks, playtime, or relaxed companionship. I’m attentive to routines, behaviour, and overall wellbeing, so your dog feels comfortable, safe, and cared for at all times. I also have experience with puppies and senior hospice dog care. I offer dog walking, drop-ins, and boarding. My fiancé and I just purchased our first home and would love to host your fur babies! We have a large yard- soon to be fenced in! There are lots of nearby trails and parks that we will frequent during an overnight or daytime stay. I will gladly provide regular updates so you can feel completely at ease while you’re away. I work from home at my own schedule so during the day I will have lots of time to give some TLC to your pet. I also offer dog walking or pet drop in’s- Matt may come along depending on the hours! I will treat your pet as one of my own- think of me as your dog’s second home 🐾 I work from home with flexible weekly hours! I am able to do drop in’s, walks and boarding throughout the week. I am also able to provide weekend boarding or drop in’s. I’m experienced and comfortable with crating when needed, and always prioritize safety, consistency, and comfort. In my home, pets enjoy a large backyard and access to nearby parks for walks and play. In clients’ homes, I stick closely to your pet’s usual routine to keep things familiar and stress-free!

“Trudy was simply wonderful with our two kitties. She responded promptly to our request for care, was very flexible with drop off and pick up, and sent pictures every day to show how well the kitties were doing. I highly recommend Trudy to look after your fur baby:)”

About: Hi, I'm April! I've been a dog and cat Mom for over 15 years. My husband and I rescue senior smaller dogs as well as foster for Marshall's Dog Rescue and CCRT Canadian Chihuahua Rescue and Transport. I have a ton of experience with medication, injections as well as special needs. My goal is to always make sure whatever animal I am currently looking after that they feel loved and safe. I am the pack leader and even if an animal has behavioral issues, I can deal with whatever is thrown at me. I look forward to working with you and building a positive, trusting relationship. I have references if you are interested. Thanks so much and give all your fur babies some love from me :)

About: I have been an owner of my own cat for over 7 years now- will come to you. I am reliable friendly and available last minute.

About: I have been caring for animals my whole life, I started within my own household and once I was old enough I started dog walking after school, into adulthood I have taken my fair share of dog sitting jobs and walking when I have had the chance. I have some spare time now that I’d like to fill with surrounding myself with animals again. I work part time, and on my days off I’m looking for a Job that brings me happiness, so no better way than surrounding myself with fur babies and helping support them when their parents are busy. I will care for your pet as if it were my own, animals have a very special place in my heart and they deserve the best care possible.

“Alecia took wonderful care of my cats! She was friendly and considerate and kept me informed about how it was going. I loved seeing pictures at each check in and was amazed at how my shy boy even warmed up to her. I would absolutely recommend Alecia and would rebook her without hesitation!”

“the cat is doing very well. I also had a neighbor who combed my cat. So I dont know how that affected what was done by Grace. I did not expect my neighbor to do so much.”

About: Dogs have completely stolen my heart for as long as I can remember and caring for them is truly my happy place. I grew up in a loving home surrounded by dogs since the day I was born, always with two large breeds in the house at once. As an adult I have raised two sweet bully breeds of my own, one of them being a rescue. Along with that lifelong experience, I spent several years working at a busy dog daycare where I professionally cared for dogs of every age, size, and temperament. I’m skilled in positive reinforcement training, teaching new tricks, managing group play, and creating safe, calm environments tailored to each dog’s needs. I am also certified in dog CPR and first aid. This background gives me the confidence to care for pups at every stage of life! From energetic puppies full of zoomies to senior dogs who need extra patience, gentle care, and understanding. I bring both heart and real knowledge to every visit so your dog feels safe, loved, and happy while you’re away. I work from home Monday - Friday, which allows me to provide consistent care and attention throughout the day. Dogs in my care are treated like part of the family, with regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, and plenty of love and cuddles. Because I’m home during the day, I’m able to monitor their needs closely, notice any changes in behavior, and give them attention whenever they need it. I structure my day to include interactive play, calm cuddle time, and short walks to keep dogs happy, comfortable, and stimulated. Your pet will always have a safe, loving environment where they feel cared for and part of the household! I offer care both in my home and in your home, depending on what you and your dog are most comfortable with. No matter where they stay, every dog is treated with the same love, attention, and care. I understand that every dog and every situation is different, which is why I tailor my approach to meet their individual needs. Whether it’s in my home or yours, I make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and part of the family. I provide supervision, affection, playtime, and structure to create a happy and secure environment for every dog in my care.

“We are more then thankful and grateful for Abigail’s pet sitting services. Our Luna was loved and taken care of by Aby. She sent me updates and pictures throughout the week. The house was immaculate when we returned. She even took out the huge pile of garbage we add accumulated through winter. I recommend her services ? %. We will definitely be booking with her in the future. Thank you Abigail. Luna misses you ? Martine and Adison”

“You know when you go somewhere and you feel at ease immediately? We'll that is the exact feeling we had arriving at Cindy's. She was friendly, transparent, calm and easygoing. Loved the whole vibe. The place is beautiful and Pancho roamed about as if he already knew the place. Pancho will definitely be back soon 😀.”

Danielle J.

“So happy that we were so lucky to have Trudy care for Bella today. We look forward to Trudy taking care of her in the future. Bella I'm sure will be telling us all about the "girls" day.”

About: I grew up with pets and have loved them ever since. I have had many furry friends over the years and appreciate the company of a good dog. Pet care fits perfectly into my daily routine. With working from home on a regular basis, looking after a dog works well. I just lost our old Golden Retriever Rosie this summer and it has left a hole in my heart, especially her furry companion, Finn the ragdoll cat. If you have a Great Friendly Dog that is Totally comfortable with cats, please reach out to me as I would love to give them some love while you are away. I love hiking and walking so would look forward to doing this with your furry friend. I have a fenced back yard but would expect to give good daily walks for your dog. They could be in and out of the house as they wish.

About: I love animals and enjoy every moment with them. My dream is to be able to have a rescue as all four of my animals are from rescues. I have decreased my hours at work to be back home more due to the rising cost of gas. I have more time to take on these duties. Every situation is different. You respect the same trust and safety for every pet weather is yours or someone else's. For dogs always leashed as you never know the situation of a pet.

About: Nice to meet you! Your pet’s safety and happiness are always my top priorities. I’m responsible, communicative, and dedicated to keeping pets happy and healthy. I’m currently working a full time job from 830am to 430pm on Mondays to Fridays. I am very flexible outside of those hours if you need someone trustworthy to watch over your pet. Your pet’s safety comes first. I always use secure leashes, check gates and doors, and keep a close eye on them. I know how important trust is, so I can send regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing they’re happy. I keep things calm, clean, and cozy so your pet feels right at home.

About: I’ve been watching dogs for 7 years now. I love all types of dogs. But the first dog I ever got close to was a pitbull. He was the first over night dog sit/house sit. I ever did, the couple would travel often due to work. So I would dog sit about 2/3 times a week. I did that for about two years and gained a lot of experience with dogs due to that job. I also find dog walking a great way to stay healthy and active with out it feeling like a work out. I’ve enjoyed dogging sitting ever since I started and don’t plan to stop. So for now that I can’t get a dog of my own. I’ll just watch yours ! Just send me a message and ill send you my number so we can set up a meeting. Price is negotiable. I’m currently a full time student online so I’m looking to make cash while staying active and happy and what a better way than to pet sit. I’ve loved animal since I was a little girl so being around them always brings me joy and as you’ll see they take a liking to me as well. Even the pups you think won’t, always end up loving me as well. I live in a very spacious one bedroom apartment with a balcony alone so they always feel free and nice fresh air. There is a courtyard in my building that is dog friendly and three dog parks near my building as well. So they will always have room to run and be themselves. I am a full time online student so I would be spending my whole day with your pups. They would always be in great care with love and attention. I have a nice courtyard in my building that’s pet friendly and they can play and I also have three dog parks in my area. Where they can run around and meet new pups if allowed I am currently an full time online student so I would be with your pup the whole day. If you’d like to hear my specific daily routine let me know 😊 I usually stick to the routine a parent gives me so they can feel as comfortable as possible while staying with me or if I’m staying in their home.

“Cindy and her husband were great hosts for my dogs. I was a little worried about our great dane and how he would do because he is a little grumpy. Cindy handled it very well and just let him settle in. Both my dogs were happy, and well taken care of. I would highly recommend Cindy to take care of any dog. We plan to us her again in future.”

“Sarah was wonderful with my pup, Nessa. Lots of space for adventures, puppy friends to play with, lots of updates and pics. She really cares about the dogs, and wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again. 2 thumbs up, 5 stars, and 10 out of 10”

“Melissa is a caring and sweet person who took wonderful care of our girl for a couple of days. She was very accommodating and responsive and has an obvious love for animals. We will definitely bring Gwen back to Melissa again if we go out of town and need a pet sitter!”

“Wonderful experience for both myself and my dog. Katie’s first time being boarded and I was anxious about it, but Trudy was so great to us both. She made me feel safe and relaxed about the whole experience. Katie really seemed to really enjoy herself and her new pals. Would definitely recommend to anyone!!”

About: Hey! I’ve had pets in my home my whole life (from hamsters to large breed dogs). My family fostered animals from the Ottawa Humane Society for 10 plus years. I have experience with all kids of fur babies :) I work from home Monday-Friday so I have lots of flexibilty. I live in a quiet community perfect for dog walks, and have a yard for supervised potty breaks. My home is very pet friendly. I have no issues with pet hair on furniture or the occasional mess. I have my own three legged kitty who is dog friendly. I love to give affection to pets and allow them on my furniture.

“Thank you very much Jen. Jen was friendly, engaged and took excellent care of Charlotte. This was our dog's first time with Jen, and I would highly recommend her and trust her with our dog again.”

“Oz was amazing! Great communication throughout Zaks stay, nice long walks and lots of cuddles provided! Zak quickly and easily slid into Oz’s as if he was home. Oz treated Zak as if he was his own, the personal, one on one, was fantastic! Highly recommend Oz Wheeler”

About: Shortly after moving to Renfrew, I rescued my dog Sage in July 2024. She is from Baffin Island, Nunavut—and I was initially told that she was a husky but she never grew! Given her size and demeanour, we believe her to be a Shiba Inu mix—we just aren’t sure how she ended up in the Arctic! About me: I have always loved animals, and I took this passion into account when choosing my first home. The house has a very large fenced-in yard that Sage loves to roam freely in. I enjoy spending much of my time in the backyard, whether in the garden or playing with Sage. Since I have all this space, and the time, I figured it would be a fun and rewarding opportunity to welcome other pets into my space on occasion, overnight on weekends or during the day on Tuesdays and Fridays when I work from home. I am also quite active, and would be happy to have another pup joining Sage and I on our walks! My partner and I both work full-time, though I work from home on Tuesdays and Fridays. I am also often available on weekends, allowing me to provide dogs with consistent attention and care. I am very adventurous with my own dog, taking her on camping trips, hikes, canoes and SUPs—she does it all and loves it! I am very active and take Sage on at least two walks per day on weekdays, also playing in the yard for about an hour each day. On weekends, I tend to go on longer walks or hikes in the area, and sometimes go to the cottage for an evening or two, where my dog will join me on snowshoe trips in the winter or boat rides in the summer. All in all, Sage is very spoiled and has my attention all the time—I love her so much and I would be happy to have her make friends with the other dogs in the area, which would be treated with a paralleled affection! As mentioned, I have a very large fenced yard which will allow your dog to play with my dog for as long as they want! My dog has free range of the house, and sleeps in bed with my partner and I (spoiled!!!). I would be happy to respect any rules that you have for your own pet when it comes to food, crating, training, etc. Our dog does her business outside in the yard, and it is preferred that your dog does the same (no pee pads). Your dog can be dropped off whenever works best for you, or I can pick them up if nearby enough. I can provide all-day daycare with two walks and free range of the backyard (with close supervision) on Tuesdays and Fridays (morning drop-off with evening pickup), or I can watch your dog all weekend (Friday morning to Sunday evening). During all of these times I will be home, but may need to leave the house for a maximum of two hours to go get groceries, etc. My dog is very playful, so ideally your dog is also playful and medium-high energy. I can of course watch lower-energy dogs, but would want to make sure they get along with my rambunctious pup first!

“We were a bit nervous leaving our 10.5yr old Lab, 1. because she is getting older, stubborn, and occasionally "whiny", and 2. since she hasn't even been in a kennel since before COVID. We met Allison and her daughter when we brought Darva for a first check suggested by Allison, that made sense to see if our dogs had innate antipathies,and could be civil with each other. All went well. A few days later we brought our dog over and left her while we had a day out of town. Allison sent us a picture of our dog to show that she was fine - and our dog was actually looking at the camera, which was unusual since she normally refuses when anyone points a "soul-sucker" in her direction, and turns her head away We found the care and the place good for our dog and know that Allison did all she could to alleviate any of our concerns..”

“Excellent services from Veronica! Very kind and caring person, took amazing care of Pekoe, our one-eyed four-toothed rescue dog! We got a daily update and photo while we were out of the country to show our perpetually sleeping potato was happy and healthy!! It really eased our minds and hearts while we were away! Pekoe is a timid little creature that does not care for most people, usually keeping her distance and sleeping in her box, but was quickly accepting of Veronica, sleeping with her on the couch and overnight! It was quite amazing to see, and brought us great ease!”

“Stuart made my two dogs feel right at home from the moment they arrived, until the moment they left. In fact, they were both quite comfortable with staying! Our dogs are quite spoiled and babied, and we were happy to find somewhere that made them comfortable and allowed them to feel at home while away.”
