“We had such a great experience with Katherine. The daily updates were thoughtful and reassuring, and it was clear Quinn was happy, comfortable, and very well looked after. It made being away so much easier. I truly can’t recommend Katherine enough!”
“Three cheers for Allison, Scott and their wonderful dog crew! We are thrilled to have found such a great place to board Sauggy! She had the time of her life (as evidenced by videos and photos shared by Allison and Scott during her stay, AND, not wanting to leave when I picked her up! Thanks so much! See you again soon :)”
“We had such a wonderful experience with Anne while she cared for our dog, Wilson, during our vacation. From the very beginning, her communication was excellent and she made us feel completely at ease. During the pre-stay meet and greet, it was clear how comfortable Wilson felt with her—and that carried through the entire stay. Anne sent us daily pictures and videos, which not only reassured us but also showed how happy and well-cared-for Wilson was. She is so kind, attentive, and genuinely caring—it honestly felt like Wilson was on his own vacation! We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and will absolutely trust Anne with Wilson again in the future.”
“Cindy took wonderful care of our little dog Oscar while we were away. She took time when meeting us to get to know him and his care needs while the other dogs were in another room. Oscar warmed up to Cindy right away and I felt very comfortable leaving him with her for an overnight stay. After we left the dogs met outdoors and we heard that they got along well. I highly recommend Cindy P. and will definitely board with her again.”
“Sara took excellent care of our energetic Airedale terrier. He had multiple walks, a clean and spacious house, and large fenced backyard. She sent us plenty of photos and updates, and we knew that our dog was very well cared for. They have 2 friendly, non-aggressive dogs that played well with our dog. I highly recommend Sara and Cody for anyone who wants exceptional care for their dog.”
“Warren and Angelika took great care of our Clyde. His meds were all given, he enjoyed a walk and all the love and attention they gave him. Clyde enjoyed his stay and all the snuggles.”
“Catherine and her husband took amazing care of my dog, Bruno, during his overnight stay! He had a great time, and I really appreciated the thoughtful updates throughout. It gave me peace of mind knowing he was in such good hands. Will definitely be booking with her again!”
“Max has never stayed away - and as a nervous pet owner - I was reassured throughout his stay with updates and pictures! I couldn't have asked for a better experience :)”
“Kristen and Jeffrey are wonderful pet sitter, they took excellent care of our furry troop! Right off the bat when I first met them I got an excellent first impression. They were very warm and friendly and were great with my pet! When I came home after after being away my pet was very relaxed and happy. During my time away Kristen and Jeffrey sent me photos of my pet having fun which was really nice ? I look forward to booking Kristen and Jeffrey again in the future!! Thanks for doing such a great job, keep up the great work!! ❤”
“Having Richard care for my dog gave me great relief as a first time Rover customer. Everything seemed quite seamless. Richard was very welcoming and showed me some of the area of his home where my dog would be spending some time there. And the backyard was a nice big fenced in area!! Definitely would recommend his services and will utilize his help again!”
About: We’re a caring, dog-loving family with over 10 years of experience having our own beloved pup, who we lost a few years ago, he was truly part of our family.

Hi! I’m a work-from-home dog lover with plenty of time for potty breaks, playtime, and snuggles. We are available for boarding or daily dog sitting from Sunday through Thursday. I also have two caring children (ages 7 & 9) to give your pet extra love, attention, and playtime before and after school. We have a large fenced yard to ensure your pets are in a safe, comfortable and controlled environment. Rest assured, we will take care of your pets as if they are our own fur babies.
“Natasha & Sandro’s experience with rescue dogs gave me the peace of mind I was looking for, they understand Rocky’s needs and made him feel at home with their dogs. The updates and photos were great for me to see Rocky having a good time with his new friends. I am happy to not have to hunt for a sitter anymore as both myself and Rocky had a very positive experience with our vacations.”
“Sarah took fantastic care of my elderly cat. We had a car accident while we were away and had to extend my cat's stay. Sarah was so kind and was happy to keep him another night! I really felt my fur baby was in great hands. Thank you Sarah🩷”
“Our dog Odin has never been happier at a kennel than he was staying here. He loved all the exercise and running around and he loved getting to stay inside the house and feel like part of the family. Santanna was great with providing regular updates and sending pictures of Odin during his stay. I highly recommend Santanna and her services. Your pet will be safe and cared for like they are at home.”
“Where do we begin? We were so nervous about leaving Nicky with strangers. And we are truly so grateful to have found Susan and Brian. Full disclosure, we thought about not writing this review so that we could keep Susan and Brian all to ourselves, but we know that they will take very, very good care of other, beloved pets so here we are. We cannot say enough good things about our experience with Susan and Brian! They made sure that our human and the furry family members were comfortable from the start. Communication was excellent. They made sure to keep us updated with regular messages and photos. They also created a little “report card” upon our return so we knew exactly how and what Nicky was doing each day — such a thoughtful touch! They went above and beyond while caring for our dog. When Nicky had unexpected tummy issues, they handled it with such care and ease. We had peace of mind the entire time we were away. We highly recommend Susan and Brian to anyone looking for reliable, attentive, kind, gentle, funny, dedicated and wonderfully caring sitters for their furry family members. Susan and Brian, thank you so much!”
“Emilie is amazing. And her kids were wonderful with Joy. I can’t say enough good things. Such good care. I recommend them 100% Thank you for taking such good care of our little girl.”

About: With a lifetime of animal care experience, I offer exceptional care to your beloved pet, whether it's a dog, cat, or emu. Ok, maybe not an emu, but I do have years of personal experience with a variety of animals: dogs, cats, hamsters, guinea pigs, rabbits, and horses. I grew up volunteering at the humane society, and I have years of experience working in animal rescue and veterinary clinics, in addition to dog walking for clients, where I gained valuable professional experience aiding in the care of all kinds of breeds of dogs with varying temperaments. It was at the rescue I worked at that I rescued my handsome pup Kai -- a semi-feral mixed breed from the woods of Manitoba. For the time being, my services will be limited to drop-in visits (not just for dogs) and dog walking. I'll even walk your cat if that's your thing! I offer individual solo walks or small groups of no more than 3 dogs if your pooch is more of a social butterfly. Either way, I can assure you that your family pet will receive the utmost quality care. I love 'em like they're my own. One thing to note-if you book an hour long walk these will likely be a bit longer than an hour as I will take them for adventure hikes, unless you request otherwise. My schedule is currently pretty flexible and open for the summer. September and onwards is still undetermined but please feel free to message me and inquire. At the moment I do not offer pet care in my home, however I am happy to go to yours up to 3x daily if needed to provide potty breaks or fun walks, as well as any necessary feedings or medications.
“Sarah took fantastic care of my elderly cat. We had a car accident while we were away and had to extend my cat's stay. Sarah was so kind and was happy to keep him another night! I really felt my fur baby was in great hands. Thank you Sarah🩷”
“Leaving my 2 cats for nearly 3 weeks was hard, but knowing that Tessa was taking care of them left me completely free to enjoy my vacation. I would not hesitate to hire her again!”
“We had recently moved to a new area and were going away for a few days and no longer had any friends or family close by to check in on Milo and Ophelia while we were away. Nicole took great care of Milo and Ophelia. She was very friendly and responsive. I had sent her a long message with information and instructions, and she followed them with no issue! She also sent us some great photos of our cats that were a delight to receive. I was definitely able to enjoy my trip knowing my cats were in great hands. I definitely recommend Nicole!”
About: I’ve had cats my entire life, I have experience giving medication and more than enough experience cleaning litter boxes! I’ve worked with animals that are not friendly and I have befriended them. I’m always up for a challenge and I love giving cats the attention they deserve
About: I have experience caring for indoor cats, outdoor cats, barn cats and hairless/Sphynx cats, as well as cats who need medication or extra support. I’m comfortable following detailed care instructions for feeding, litter boxes, medications, routines, indoor/outdoor access and each cat’s individual personality. I know cats can be particular about their space, schedule and people, so I focus on keeping their routine as familiar and low stress as possible. Whether a cat is social, shy, independent, senior, high-energy, or needs a little extra patience, my goal is to help them feel safe and settled while they're in my care. I also offer a complimentary meet-and-greet before the first booking so I can get to know your cat, their routine, their care needs and any other important details ahead of time.
About: I’ve cared for our family kitties for years as well as cared for kittens and cats as well as senior kitties. I’ve fed, brushed, clipped nails and gave medications to numerous cats, mostly cats that were in a rescue.

About: Hi, I'm Chelsey! I have over 10 years of hands-on pet care experience spanning in-home care, board and train programs, and doggy daycares. I share my own home with three dogs and two cats, so animals aren't just my work, they're my life. I'll be honest, I love animals more than most people, and every decision I make during the day is based on what's best for the pets in my care. I'm experienced with a variety of training tools and techniques, including e-collars, prong collars, and Gentle Leader walks, and I'm comfortable with all temperaments, from sweet, wiggly puppies to dogs who prefer not to be touched. I'm doing this because I genuinely love meeting new furry friends, and my long-term goal is to build my own business in the animal care world. I can't wait to meet your sweet babies! This would be my career, I would do this full time. I would make my schedule around the best intrest of my clients with flexible hours I have a large fenced in yard, i have a large park across the street from my house my dogs like to play offlwash on (i would have dogs on long lines if I was to bring them there) my husband is hone full time and we would work as a team to care for the animals the way the need.

My dogs are very friendly and go to doggy daycare they are both fixed 1 female 1 male female is 3 this year my boy will be 2. They lost their sister last year and are always looking to make friends.
About: I have been taking care of pets around my neighbourhood when they go away for a vacation, a short trip or just need me to pop in to check on them. I have looked after older cats with disability’s and also dogs aged 6 to senior ages. I love animals more then people so you know your furry friends will be taken care of like they are my own. I am currently working full time but would love to walk or check in on your pups while I’m home or have a day off. Anything that the owner needs I will accommodate. I have had clients in the past who’s pets needed medication at a certain time and there is no problem following these expectations.
About: Growing up we constantly had many different pets. May it be cats, dogs, birds or even fish. I love animals and the joy they bring, so as soon as I got my license I started a successful pet sitting business back home. Now that I have moved to Port Hope, I am looking to start back providing care and assistance to my fellow neighbors and their beloved animals. I am extremely patient and kind. I love all animals and if I am not familiar with a particular care process, I am happy to learn. I look forward to being able to provide my services to anyone who needs it. I do currently work 8.30 to 4.30 Monday to Friday but my work is on a hybrid model and I live close to work. I am willing to come and help before work, after work and even on my lunch breaks if needed. My weekends are very open and flexible as well. I currently rent and have 2 cats, so taking care of your pet in my home is possible but restricted. While taking care of pets in their home. I will abide by all house rules. I will visit your home and provide a minimum of 3 walks a day for drop ins, if I am housesitting then more care will be provided. I will also brush your pets and if you wish more grooming services, this can always be discussed.

“Every single interaction with Warren and Angelika is amazing. My puppy gets excited when we’re going down there, and is practically leaping out of my arms at the door. She comes home happy and tired. I’m pretty sure the days she doesn’t go, she’s judging me for not being as fun at Warren’s. :) I feel genuinely blessed to have found Warren. I feel totally sure that she’s being treated well, and have no anxiety at all. That’s worth more than gold!”
“Great experience! Easy drop off and pick up, they were very flexible and great communication with our 15 week old puppy! He was exhausted he slept the whole ride home. Would use again and very happy!”
“We used Rover for the first time, and are so thankful we came across,Shraddha. She was fantastic. We were so nervous leaving our puppy for the first time ,and Shraddha made it such a wonderful experience. We received updates, pictures and even a video. We highly recommend and will definitely be coming back.”
About: Dogs have always been a big part of my life, and caring for them comes naturally to me. I’ve raised puppies and, most recently, provided dedicated senior care for my beloved dog until she passed away in May. My home has very few stairs, a beautiful fenced in yard, and everything your dog needs for a comfortable stay. Whether your dog is energetic or enjoys a slower pace, I’ll treat them with the same love, care, and attention I’d want for my own. I’m also happy to send you photos and do FaceTime calls if that’s something you would like :) I’m currently a graduate student who is not working so I have a lot of availability and flexibility. I will treat your dog with the same love and care that I treated mine with. I have a beautiful, fully fenced yard where your dog can safely run and play. There are only a few steps to enter the house, and if your dog has mobility challenges, I’m happy to carry them if needed. Your dog will be treated like family and will enjoy the same love and freedom my own dog did, whether that’s curling up on the couch, relaxing in a cozy spot, or simply being wherever they’re happiest. I also have an 9 year old daughter who absolutely adores dogs and loves spending time with them. We would be thrilled to welcome your fur baby into our home, where they’ll enjoy their own vacation while you’re enjoying yours! 🐾❤️
“Santanna and Dan are absolutely AMAZING!!! I drove from Nova Scotia to Ontario for my dad’s funeral and was stressing over my two Golden Retrievers Darwin and Bunker; Santanna and Dan came to my rescue and took them in for day care. My boys love them SO much I brought them back two more times! Honestly some of the most amazing people I have met. Can’t say ANYTHING bad about them! Thank you both SOOO much!!!”
“They are definitely experts with 15 yrs of experience, knowing how to make dogs happy as ‘dogs’ also as ‘pets’ at their amazing home, including 10 acres of forest.”
“My husky Drake had an amazing time with Cory and her family. Drake was excited to meet their puppies Skye and Piper and Drake became friends with them fast. Cory keeps sending update and photos and make us also feel comfortable. Definitely going back to her.”
About: Lifelong Animal Lover With 10+ Years Vet Experience 🐾 Hi! I’m so glad you’re here. My name is Bailey, and I offer in-home pet boarding, daycare, and care for small to medium dogs, cats, and small animals. My pricing is set at what I believe is a fair reflection of my experience in the veterinary industry, the quality of care I provide, and the time dedicated to your pet. At the same time, I work hard to keep my services affordable because I understand firsthand how expensive being a pet parent can be. My goal is to provide trusted, professional care without adding financial stress. I’ve worked in the veterinary field for over 10 years, and I now work from home for a pet microchip company—meaning I’m available, attentive, and trained to notice even the smallest changes in your pet’s behavior or health. Safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I share my home with two friendly chihuahuas, two bunnies, and 3 pet rats, all of whom are used to meeting new animals and do great with visitors. I also have a gentle, animal-loving 7-year-old who has grown up around pets and understands how to treat them with care and respect. Animals have been my passion since childhood, and I love creating a calm, fun, and secure environment where your pet can feel like part of the family. Whether your pet needs cuddles, playtime, supervision, or just a quiet place to relax, I’m here to make their stay safe and enjoyable. If you have any questions or special requests, feel free to reach out—I’d love to meet you and your furry (or fluffy!) family member! I currently work from home for a pet microchip company—so I’m home and available all day. Since the company is very pet-friendly, they’re incredibly accommodating when it comes to things like background noise, potty breaks, or anything else your pet may need. Plus, my own 2 dogs are home with me all day and would love to play with your pet! When your pet is in my home, they’ll be treated just like my own! They have full access to the couch and all areas of my pet-friendly two-bedroom apartment. You’re welcome to bring any personal items—beds, blankets, toys, or anything that helps your pet feel more at home—but we also have plenty of toys and treats here for them to enjoy. My two dogs use pee pads during the winter months, but I’m absolutely able to take your dog out for walks if that’s part of their routine. If your pet is also pee-pad trained, that works perfectly for us.
About: I retired in 2020 and returned to college to receive my Registered Veterinary Technician diploma in 2023. I have been a foster parent to hundreds of animals over my lifetime, specializing in animals who require medication and specialized medical care. I am retired and available to watch your pet at any time. Last minute and longer term care remains an option. I do travel on occasion but this would be communicated with plenty of notice. I have just moved to the Fergus area and reside in a park-setting which has a fenced leash free area on site. There is a lake should your pup like the water! I can accommodate crate trained animals however my general thinking is that your pet would be like my own were, snuggling on the bed or couch. I realize how important consistency and routine is to your pets wellbeing and would ensure that your routines are followed should I be staying at your home.

“Hi. We would like to thank Michelle for doing such a great job caring for our now 6 month old mini golden doodle. Michelle greeted us each morning with a warm smile. She told us Freddie was doing great and sent videos of him and her 5 year old gorgeous dog Molly. Molly became Freddie’s momma and it meant the world to me seeing how well Freddie was bonding. The socialization was great for our boy. Michelle played some calming meditation music which Freddie loves. I wouldn’t hesitate to bring Freddie back for more tender loving care. Thank you Michelle. You are awesome 😎”
“Our dog was very happy and calm when we picked him up. Amanda was accommodating our last minute need for a dog sitter. Her property was perfect, took Walter on a long walk. Would definitely leave my dog with her again.”
About: I do some boarding and dog sits at your home. But if you are working full time and need walks for your dog this summer- we got you! My daughter and I can make it work, if you are in Stayner. For this summer my 15 year old daughter is assisting me with dog walks, to increase how many clients I can help. We have years of experience loving and walking dogs! If you are looking for doggie day care, you may fit in with us Tuesday-Thursday. My two dogs are 12+ years old and love sleeping while I'm working away. For someone who needs a visit to their home to care for your dog/cat, I'm careful to respect your home and privacy, and I can send you pictures of your dog at each visit, if you'd like.
“My experience with Richard was great! He was available last minute for my girls. He updated me a lot and thats always amazing. Ill be happy to have him watch my girls again :)”
“Rieko was very accommodating being so last minute. She was nice friendly and sent pictures the whole time. My puppy met some new puppy friends and was nice and tired by the time I picked her up. Rieko was very prompt and professional! I would recommend her to everyone!”

About: Hi! My name is Tony, and I’m a reliable, patient, and animal-loving dog walker based in your local area. I understand how important it is to know your dog is safe, cared for, and getting the right amount of exercise and attention. I take a calm, attentive approach with every dog and adjust walks based on their age, energy level, and personality. I’m punctual, respectful of your home, and great at following instructions — whether that’s leash preferences, routes, feeding routines, or medications. Safety always comes first. I’m currently focused on daytime dog walking and drop-in visits, making me a great fit for working professionals, seniors, and families who need dependable help during the day.

About: Whether your big dog needs to burn some energy on a long walk, or your little furry friend needs a quick trip outside and some couch cuddles. I’m here to help! I grew up around dogs. Over the years my family has had Cocker Spaniels, Chocolate Labs, Weimaraners, and even a Great Dane! Seven years ago I adopted a Mini Dachshund full of love, and stubbornness, who taught me the importance of proper training! Last year when she suffered an IVDD set back. I learnt about a whole new level of care, from bladder expression to wheelchair use. I’m ready to do whatever it takes to keep your dogs happy and healthy! I work as a freelance writer, so have an amazingly flexible schedule that will allow me to find the perfect time to come hag out with your pet! Primarily looking to come drop in or take your dog for a walk in your neighbourhood. But I do I live on a large farm with over a km of walking trails if you want me to pick them up and take them on a outdoor adventure! I have a special needs dog, but if your dogs temperament is the right fit. I’d be happy to have them in my home for day care or overnights.
About: I have been taking care of animals of all shapes, sizes, breeds, and species as long as I can remember. I am very cognizant of all the animals in my care and find I can read their cues like a book. I am learning dog training and have worked hard with my dog on his skills. I am no stranger to giving pups medication as well, let me know what your pups needs and I can take care of them as if they were my own! I am currently a stay-at-home mom of 1, so I have lots of time and love to give your furry family. We are quite flexible so let us know your needs for care and we will be happy to oblige! We have a large fenced backyard, the dog beach nearby and 2 dog parks not far from our house. We have 1 dog and 3 cats in the home so we are very familiar with accommodating different personalities and their needs! We can crate pups if they need some space or we have a deck that they can lay on to get some sun.
About: Dogs and puppies are my passion! I dreamed of working with dogs as a little girl and now that is my reality! I have been working with dogs for about 18 years now. I have worked and trained many puppies as well as rescue dogs. I have worked in kennels and doggy daycares, with the pups as well as managing. I have also volunteered for humane societies and fostered rescue dogs. I was on the dog team at the alliston humane society for many years. I work from home so I am mostly at home, other than running errands and attending a few programs throughout the week. Typically I wouldn’t be out of the house for more than a few hours at one time. Dogs staying with us should be comfortable around children, kitties and preferably other pups. We provide lots cuddles and play time (if they want it!).
About: I provide dependable in-home pet and house sitting for dogs, cats and small or exotic pets, with an emphasis on keeping them happy and settled in their own environment and schedule. I can help with feeding, walks, companionship, plant care, mail/package collection and any other everyday household needs while you’re away. I also have experience caring for animals with medical needs, senior pets, and pets who need a little extra support. This includes pets who are blind, have hearing loss, require oral medication, insulin, allergy care and heart medication. I’m attentive to details, comfortable following care instructions and careful about monitoring changes in behaviour, appetite, energy, mobility or comfort. I also offer a complimentary meet-and-greet before the first booking so I can get to know your pets, their routines, their care needs and any important details ahead of time. My goal is to give owners peace of mind while making sure their pets feel safe, cared for and settled at home! I am self-employed, so I have flexible availability and pet care fits easily into my daily and weekly routine. I’m available seven days a week and structure my time around each pet’s regular schedule. My goal is to keep pets comfortable in their own home and regular routine while giving owners peace of mind while they’re away. I provide care in the client’s home, so my focus is on keeping pets safe, comfortable and settled in their familiar environment. I follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible including feeding, walks, medication, litter care, playtime, companionship, and bedtime routines. Before a booking, I like to review care instructions, health needs, emergency contacts, vet information, home access details and any household routines. I’m careful with doors, gates, leashes, food, medications and anything that could affect a pet’s safety. I also respect the client’s home by keeping things tidy, collecting mail/packages, caring for plants and following household instructions.
“Steph was great with our dog Bruce, she handled him very well considering he's 175lbs, usually we are a little reluctant on letting others walk him (family or friends) but Steph assured us on the first visit which certainly made us feel extremely comfortable, especially with when she was asking questions about our Bruce's obedience, any commands we use etc, rather try and use her own like some may have possibly...and we definitely would use her services again...,best of all she was always time, very polite, and is an animal expert...”

About: Hi, I'm Chelsey! I have over 10 years of hands-on pet care experience spanning in-home care, board and train programs, and doggy daycares. I share my own home with three dogs and two cats, so animals aren't just my work, they're my life. I'll be honest, I love animals more than most people, and every decision I make during the day is based on what's best for the pets in my care. I'm experienced with a variety of training tools and techniques, including e-collars, prong collars, and Gentle Leader walks, and I'm comfortable with all temperaments, from sweet, wiggly puppies to dogs who prefer not to be touched. I'm doing this because I genuinely love meeting new furry friends, and my long-term goal is to build my own business in the animal care world. I can't wait to meet your sweet babies! This would be my career, I would do this full time. I would make my schedule around the best intrest of my clients with flexible hours I have a large fenced in yard, i have a large park across the street from my house my dogs like to play offlwash on (i would have dogs on long lines if I was to bring them there) my husband is hone full time and we would work as a team to care for the animals the way the need. If that means I take my dogs to the park and your pup gets human love thats what we'll do. My dogs are very friendly and go to doggy daycare they are both fixed 1 female 1 male female is 3 this year my boy will be 2. They lost their sister last year and are always looking to make friends.
About: I've grown up around pets and have always been the person family and friends could count on to help care for them. We previously had a Doberman named Onyx, and although we no longer have him, I still miss him dearly. Raising and caring for a large working breed gave me a lot of experience and helped build a strong connection with dogs of all sizes and personalities. Near my home there's a large park that I used to take Onyx to regularly, and it's a great place for walks and exercise. If owners are comfortable with it and it's appropriate for their dog, I'm happy to incorporate park visits into their routine and even some fun training! I handle all the day-to-day essentials including feeding, walks, playtime, and making sure pets feel comfortable and secure. I pay close attention to their behavior and individual needs so they receive the care that's best for them. My goal is always to treat every pet as if they were my own, giving them plenty of attention, patience, and care while their owners are away. About you / Schedule I’m currently working at home, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to focus on pet care. I’m available most weekdays and also open for boarding and extended care on weekends. I enjoy spending that time walking, playing with, and making sure pets are comfortable and well looked after. I provide a calm, safe, and caring environment for pets whether in my home or a client’s home. I always follow the owner’s instructions closely to maintain their pet’s routine and comfort. I make sure pets are supervised, well cared for, and given plenty of attention, exercise, and downtime depending on their needs and personality.

“Three cheers for Allison, Scott and their wonderful dog crew! We are thrilled to have found such a great place to board Sauggy! She had the time of her life (as evidenced by videos and photos shared by Allison and Scott during her stay, AND, not wanting to leave when I picked her up! Thanks so much! See you again soon :)”
“We had such a wonderful experience with Anne while she cared for our dog, Wilson, during our vacation. From the very beginning, her communication was excellent and she made us feel completely at ease. During the pre-stay meet and greet, it was clear how comfortable Wilson felt with her—and that carried through the entire stay. Anne sent us daily pictures and videos, which not only reassured us but also showed how happy and well-cared-for Wilson was. She is so kind, attentive, and genuinely caring—it honestly felt like Wilson was on his own vacation! We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and will absolutely trust Anne with Wilson again in the future.”
“Sara took excellent care of our energetic Airedale terrier. He had multiple walks, a clean and spacious house, and large fenced backyard. She sent us plenty of photos and updates, and we knew that our dog was very well cared for. They have 2 friendly, non-aggressive dogs that played well with our dog. I highly recommend Sara and Cody for anyone who wants exceptional care for their dog.”
“Warren and Angelika took great care of our Clyde. His meds were all given, he enjoyed a walk and all the love and attention they gave him. Clyde enjoyed his stay and all the snuggles.”
“Catherine and her husband took amazing care of my dog, Bruno, during his overnight stay! He had a great time, and I really appreciated the thoughtful updates throughout. It gave me peace of mind knowing he was in such good hands. Will definitely be booking with her again!”
“Kristen and Jeffrey are wonderful pet sitter, they took excellent care of our furry troop! Right off the bat when I first met them I got an excellent first impression. They were very warm and friendly and were great with my pet! When I came home after after being away my pet was very relaxed and happy. During my time away Kristen and Jeffrey sent me photos of my pet having fun which was really nice ? I look forward to booking Kristen and Jeffrey again in the future!! Thanks for doing such a great job, keep up the great work!! ❤”
“Having Richard care for my dog gave me great relief as a first time Rover customer. Everything seemed quite seamless. Richard was very welcoming and showed me some of the area of his home where my dog would be spending some time there. And the backyard was a nice big fenced in area!! Definitely would recommend his services and will utilize his help again!”

“Natasha & Sandro’s experience with rescue dogs gave me the peace of mind I was looking for, they understand Rocky’s needs and made him feel at home with their dogs. The updates and photos were great for me to see Rocky having a good time with his new friends. I am happy to not have to hunt for a sitter anymore as both myself and Rocky had a very positive experience with our vacations.”
“Sarah took fantastic care of my elderly cat. We had a car accident while we were away and had to extend my cat's stay. Sarah was so kind and was happy to keep him another night! I really felt my fur baby was in great hands. Thank you Sarah🩷”
“Our dog Odin has never been happier at a kennel than he was staying here. He loved all the exercise and running around and he loved getting to stay inside the house and feel like part of the family. Santanna was great with providing regular updates and sending pictures of Odin during his stay. I highly recommend Santanna and her services. Your pet will be safe and cared for like they are at home.”
“Where do we begin? We were so nervous about leaving Nicky with strangers. And we are truly so grateful to have found Susan and Brian. Full disclosure, we thought about not writing this review so that we could keep Susan and Brian all to ourselves, but we know that they will take very, very good care of other, beloved pets so here we are. We cannot say enough good things about our experience with Susan and Brian! They made sure that our human and the furry family members were comfortable from the start. Communication was excellent. They made sure to keep us updated with regular messages and photos. They also created a little “report card” upon our return so we knew exactly how and what Nicky was doing each day — such a thoughtful touch! They went above and beyond while caring for our dog. When Nicky had unexpected tummy issues, they handled it with such care and ease. We had peace of mind the entire time we were away. We highly recommend Susan and Brian to anyone looking for reliable, attentive, kind, gentle, funny, dedicated and wonderfully caring sitters for their furry family members. Susan and Brian, thank you so much!”
“Emilie is amazing. And her kids were wonderful with Joy. I can’t say enough good things. Such good care. I recommend them 100% Thank you for taking such good care of our little girl.”
“Jessica and family treated my dog, Cooper, just like he was their own and I knew he was in good hands from the moment I met them. They sent many updates, including photos and videos. I will definitely be using their dog sitting services again and highly recommend them!”
“Amazing care for our dog Dexie! We had an wonderful experience with our dog sitter! From the moment we met, it was clear she genuinely cared about our dog and treated them like family. We received regular updates, photos, and messages, which gave us complete peace of mind while we were away.”
About: Dogs have always been a big part of my life, and caring for them comes naturally to me. I’ve raised puppies and, most recently, provided dedicated senior care for my beloved dog until she passed away in May. My home has very few stairs, a beautiful fenced in yard, and everything your dog needs for a comfortable stay. Whether your dog is energetic or enjoys a slower pace, I’ll treat them with the same love, care, and attention I’d want for my own. I’m also happy to send you photos and do FaceTime calls if that’s something you would like :) I’m currently a graduate student who is not working so I have a lot of availability and flexibility. I will treat your dog with the same love and care that I treated mine with. I have a beautiful, fully fenced yard where your dog can safely run and play. There are only a few steps to enter the house, and if your dog has mobility challenges, I’m happy to carry them if needed. Your dog will be treated like family and will enjoy the same love and freedom my own dog did, whether that’s curling up on the couch, relaxing in a cozy spot, or simply being wherever they’re happiest. I also have an 9 year old daughter who absolutely adores dogs and loves spending time with them. We would be thrilled to welcome your fur baby into our home, where they’ll enjoy their own vacation while you’re enjoying yours! 🐾❤️
“Jacqueline is absolutely phenomenal! We booked our senior basset hound with her for 4 nights and she was extremely responsive and such a pleasure to deal with! Norah came home happy and Jacqueline treated her like her own fur baby during her stay. We will definitely be booking with Jacqueline again, thanks so much Jacqueline!”
“Kim is a true animal lover! Our big berner was so well loved and cared for by Kim. We received tons of photos and updates which made us feel so comfortable knowing he was safe! She made sure to ask questions before drop off to get to know him and listened to everything we communicated with her. Would highly recommend!”
