About: I've had dogs for the last 20 years, usually with four in the house at a time. We've had a Shih-tzu, three Jack-Shih-tzus, a Great Pyrenees, and now a solo Maltie-Poo named Dozer. Every dog I meet is a new friend, and I have to admit that I knew the names of all the dogs in my last neighborhood, and like maybe three of the owners names. Happy to walk active dogs that need long walks. For doggy day care and boarding we have to restrict it to small dogs because our own small dog is picky about which larger dogs he likes. Other animals: I've also taken care of farm animals. Dairy cows and calves, and feeding chickens and putting them in for the night. I've kept both freshwater and marine tanks and can check up on your fish or your reef while you're away. No worrying about your niece or nephew dumping a whole container of bug bites into the tank while you're gone and causing an ammonia spike. I've also kept constrictors and colubrids (but not currently), crested geckos, and dart frogs, and am familiar with the husbandry of each. I have a flexible schedule and am in between writing contracts at the moment so have lots of time available for scheduling check-ins and walks for local puppers. I can check-on and feed pets as needed, dispense necessary meds, walk them from your home, or load them in the car and take them to the Cataraqui Trail for longer walks / more active dogs.
“Another wonderful stay!! I can tell from the pictures she was spoiled rotten, and even had a swimming lesson. Looking forward to another few days later in the month.”
“Our golden retriever, Willow, is so amazingly happy at Danielle's. So excited to see Danielle, she barely notices when I'm leaving. And she looks so relaxed when I come to pick her up. And both of them seem to adore Willow. They often have other dogs and manage Willow's dog-social anxieties well.”
“Kimberley watched my little Frances for the weekend and took such great care of her! She was considerate, provided lots of updates and I felt very much at ease that Fran was in good hands. I would recommend Kimberley as a sitter!!”
“Nicole and Eddie went above and beyond for our dog Teddy. They took great care of him and made sure we had lots of photos and videos. Looking forward to the next time Teddy gets to stay!”
“We greatly appreciated Jocelyn and Jason's care for our dog, Jasper, while we were away. He enjoyed their company, as well as making other 4-legged friends. They kept in touch with us while we are away so we could vacation without worry! Thank you SO much :)”
“Jennifer provided excellent care to my (nervous 17 yr old) dog Rosie. She was so kind and gave daily updates and photos. I was able to enjoy my time away without worrying. I highly recommend Jennifer and I will definitely book with her again”
“Kavya took care of Bailey while we were away. Bailey made herself at home and was treated like family! I received news and photos every few days, it was perfect! Thanks!”
“Johanna is a kind and incredibly reliable dog watcher who truly treats pets like family. Cosmo needs a bit of time to trust new people, and she gave him the space, calm energy & gentle reassurance he needed. We felt completely at ease knowing she respected his personality, made him feel safe and comfortable. He was relaxed, well‑fed and happy when we picked him up. We are very grateful and will happily book with her again.”
“Kristin and Justin are awesome. They have looked after our girl Frankie twice. Both times she was spoiled and well socialized. She comes back to us a better dog. Thanks again and see you next time.”
“Daniel, Sarah & the kids are simply amazing!! We are repeated clients and I can’t say enough how much we appreciate the care and attention our dog receives at each stay! They are constantly sharing updates, which makes our trips more enjoyable just by knowing that our dog is also having a great time.”
“Amazing stay for our fur baby he was relaxed and so content from his stay! Lei took excellent care of Zeus kept us posted sent us videos and pictures we were very pleased and assured our little guy was in good hands. Lei even went out of her way to return the feeder bowls I forgot at pick up she drove them over. Honestly amazing 👏 thanks so much for having Zeus”
“Bronco LOVES going to see Lindsay and her family! He’s slightly obsessed with her little boy. 🤣 I can always relax knowing that he is being taken care of, and he comes home happy and not at all stressed.”
“Manali and her family poured so much love onto Zeus on our most recent visit to Ottawa. He really felt comfortable there. Elsa, their dog, was so gentle and accomadating to Zeus. They were also very accomodating to allow me to pick him up for a walk when i missed him! I would gladly recommend Manali for anyone looking for a homely environment for their dog.”
“While I considerd "not dead or missing" to be successful for an online pet boarding service, our dog settled in quickly and seemed sad to part ways with her new friends at the end of the week. April also helped to manage a bit of an upset stomach and allergies through her visit which inspires confidence.”
“Shannon took great care of our dog. She kept us informed throughout the weekend and sent lots of great pictures. Riley came home happy and tired out. We would love to use Shannon's services again.”
“Hui really loves animals and is very passionate towards them. She is the best dog 🐕 sitter I have ever used. I brought my Coco to Hui for 5 days over the Christmas period. Hui sent photos and videos of Coco regularly and made sure Coco was active , fed and walked regularly for potty and pee breaks. I am relieved to know Hui is there in the future when I travel again. Thanks very much Hui!”

About: I've been a cat lover and owner for over 20 years. I love having dogs in our home, playing and taking walks in our local neighborhood. I work from home full time and would love extra company. I'm looking to gain more hands on experience with a variety of dogs and cats. I have a fenced yard with 2 friendly cats. A large house that is warm and loving. Live close to parks for walks and exploring.
About: I’ve cared for my own cats as well as cats belonging to family and friends, giving me experience with a variety of personalities, temperaments, and needs. I’m comfortable with feeding, refreshing water, cleaning litter boxes, playtime, and making sure every cat gets plenty of love, attention, and companionship. Whether your cat enjoys playing with toys, lounging in a sunny spot, or prefers quiet company and affection on their own terms, I’ll provide personalized care based on their individual personality and needs. Your cat’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I’ll treat them like one of my own and keep you updated with regular photos and messages, so you can relax knowing they’re in caring and reliable hands.
“Thomas did an great job with our cat Rosie. I really felt like she was loved while there. The house itself was also spacious so she had lots of space to roam. Rosie has medical issues and so needs meds at very specific times of day and Thomas made sure to let us know that she got them. I would definitely have him cat-sit for is again 😊”
About: Hi there! I’m Amanda — a lifelong animal lover and physiotherapist who also completed the Canine Rehabilitation program. I grew up at the stable, surrounded by animals my entire life, so caring for dogs and cats has always come naturally to me. I got my first dog for my ninth birthday and have since cared for pets from puppies to senior dogs well into their golden years. I currently share my home with two wonderful dogs, including one rescue pup I personally rehabilitated through patience, structure, and love. As a physiotherapist and certified canine rehab specialist, I have a strong understanding of mobility, comfort, and safe handling—especially for dogs recovering from injury, dealing with arthritis, or needing a bit of extra care. Whether it’s a playful pup, a gentle senior, or a pet who needs a little confidence and TLC, I treat every animal as if they were my own. You can count on me to provide warm, knowledgeable, and reliable care so you can feel at ease while you’re away. I work from home and have a very flexible schedule, which means I’m available for pet care during the day, evenings, and weekends. Since I’m home most of the time, your pets will get plenty of attention, love, and companionship throughout the day — just like they would with family. When caring for others’ pets, I always take the time to listen to their owners and follow each animal’s usual routine. I believe consistency and respect are key to helping pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for — just like they would at home.
“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”
“Natalia was very professional to work with and for my cats she was very caring, kind and understanding of their needs. She was reliable and always responded to any messages I sent her very promptly. I definitely recommend her as I would contact her again in the future if I find myself in need of a cat sitter.”
“Megan was very good... On time and communicated about happiness (or displeasure) of our cat when we went away for a week. The princess wasn't mad as usual when we returned - so she Megan done good”
About: I've had a pet ever since I can remember, life's incomplete without one. I have lots of experience with various sizes of dogs, and with cats. I'm comfortable around all animals.

“Sawyer has had a great start with Jacelyn and Jason. He has never had dog sitting before, and he has not spent a lot of time away from friends and family. With back to the office starting, we were looking for a solution and he has been really good so far. On his second visit when he hopped out of the car and realized where he was he went straight for the door, tail wagging which is a great sign. We plan to continue booking and working with them as care providers for Sawyer.”
“We were very thankful for Nicole and Eddie’s availability on short notice when we needed to go out of town for the day. Both Teaka and Ciera were so excited when we arrived and they were very happy with their stay. They treated our girls like their own which put our minds at ease. I would totally recommend their services.”
“Wonderful home to bring your pups to! The warmest couple that treated my dog Sunnie just as if she was their own. The property is beautiful and perfect for country living and a safe sanctuary for any pet. Sunnie came home happy and I will not hesitate to bring Sunnie back soon for another visit. She was in great hands!”
“Wen is lovely and provided such good care of our pups. They had a great time, I could see this from the photo’s she shared and also from how happy they were when we collected them! They got along with her doggie so well. We will def rebook, thanks Wen!”
About: We're in the process of opening a kennel on our 27 acre homestead, until then, we're here on Rover! Let us give your pets an enriching experience while you're away, and you peace of mind that they are in not one but two sets of good hands. Our dog Styx loves all pets, big and small, but we also have experience and infrastructure for some personal space if your pet takes a little longer to warm up or has special needs. We are currently building a kennel on our wooded retreat, and in the meantime, our home is open! We are home full-time and spend our days outside tending to the property, bringing your pets along, with lots of water and indoor breaks. We have a fenced yard and the house is able to be segmented off depending on the needs (puppy pen, cat area with dogs, cat area dog free, day crated, whatever your comfort is.
About: I have several years of professional and independent pet care experience, including dog daycare, pet retail, dog walking, drop-ins, house sitting, overnight care and extended stays. I currently work from home, which gives me flexibility for pets who benefit from having someone around throughout the day, and I’m especially interested in building relationships with regular clients. I previously worked in dog daycare where I cared for groups of up to 75 dogs of all ages, sizes and temperaments. My experience includes feeding, walking, bathing, brushing, crating, administering medications, puppy care, senior care and working with special-needs dogs who require additional attention or accommodations. I’m also trained in canine first aid and comfortable caring for pets with more involved routines. Through my previous work at Village Pets Boutique, I gained extensive knowledge of pet nutrition, supplements and natural health products. Before that, I worked in the Pet Care department at PetSmart, giving me an even broader background in animal care and handling. I’m equally comfortable with cats and have plenty of experience caring for them through my work at PetSmart as well as independent drop-ins, house sitting and overnight stays. I’m very comfortable staying in a client’s home for extended periods and frequently provide this type of care while clients are travelling. Animals have also always been a huge part of my life outside of work. I grew up in a home with both dogs and cats and currently have two black Labs back home, Louie and Lenny. I bring a calm, capable and compassionate approach to pet care and genuinely enjoy getting to know each animal’s individual personality and routine. I currently work from home, which gives me a lot of flexibility for pet care throughout the day. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, daytime care, overnight sitting and extended stays, and I’m especially interested in finding regular clients who need consistent weekly care. My schedule can vary week to week, so feel free to message me about what you’re looking for! For house sitting, I’m very comfortable staying overnight or for longer periods and can often continue my normal workday from your home while keeping your pet company. I try to keep each pet’s routine as close to normal as possible, especially when caring for them in their own home. I’ll follow your usual feeding, walking, medication, crate, sleep and exercise routines and take the time to learn your pet’s individual habits, boundaries and personality. My professional daycare experience has made me very comfortable reading animal body language, recognizing stress or changes in behaviour and safely managing pets with very different temperaments. I’m also comfortable administering medications and caring for pets with more specific routines or needs. When house sitting or staying overnight, I’m very respectful of my client’s home and make sure everything is cared for while they’re away, not just their pet!
“Cindy was very sweet and took great care of Monty. I got pictures of his time there and he clearly had lots of fun. I will definitely be coming back. I feel so at ease knowing he played with some friends and came back a happy boy!”
About: I'm 22, I've had animals my entire existence including reptiles. I live on 4 acres of mostly fenced in yard for your babies to run around. I'm flexible on anything you need for your babies. (And I can babysit your reptiles) I currently have no job but I'm looking for a part-time so I can continue to focus on meeting all sorts of new animals that need somewhere to snooze and play. I have a mostly fenced yard, three doggos that are super friendly to everything. I have experience with vet medicine and crate training. I have LOTS of safe dog toys that need to be played with.
“We could not be happier with the care that Jacqueline has provided for Duff! She knows her stuff and Duff can be nervous and reactive at times. He had a blast at "camp" and we look forward to taking him again tomorrow.”
About: Dogs, cats, rabbits, horses, you name it! I have a decade of experience and care for your pet. With love and compassion I am happy to help. I have a very flexible schedule to meet your pets needs. Weekend, week day, or holiday availability. Pets need love and care 365 days a year!

About: With 200 acres of open space, your dog can explore on or off leash, follow wildlife trails, and relax on the porch for sunset views. I’m a full‑time mom and homemaker, and a serious dog lover at heart. I’ll make sure your dog feels safe, loved, and cared for while you’re away. I’ve completed years of training with both puppies and adult dogs. I treat every pup like family while still respecting their canine nature and what they need to thrive.
About: *PLEASE NOTE THAT MY AVAILABILITY & CLIENT LIST IS NOW CLOSED FOR 2023. For additional updates. Hello! My name is Allie. I've owned four rescued huskies. I currently have two young rescued huskies and two cats! I walk, groom, feed, and train my animals. I have fostered two dogs, one which was a palliative case. I am comfortable giving medication and other medical care (ie: ear cleaning). I have been paid to board two dogs by a private client and had them as clients for a year. With the dog rescue I volunteer with, I have provided transport for dogs ranging in personality. I work full time from home, Monday - Friday. With my own dogs, they receive 4 walks per day (2 hours total), along with 30 mins of playtime. We visit a private fenced dog park. I spend most of my free time with my dogs. I am also heavily involved with an Ottawa based dog rescue. I transport dogs, have fostered, and do short term dog sitting for fosters. My dogs are fitted with a harness and I use a waist belt to walk them. No dropped leashes! Unless you have a preference, for safety, your dog would be double leashed - one waist belt and one slip lead. I have double front doors, helping to prevent any escaped dogs. I own two huskies so am very familiar with escape artists. Any toys or bones given (strictly only with request or permission from owner) will only be with the dog when supervised (helps to prevent obstructions & other possible injuries) I have a completely fenced backyard. However, your dog would still be supervised while outside. We will not meet other dogs while walking unless you would like your dog to. Proper communication will be used with other dog owners and off leash dogs will not be allowed to approach. This keeps all parties safe and comfortable.

I would be more available during the day and early evenings I have a fenced yard, with plenty of grass down below the deck area. I am close to walking trails and sidewalks outside of my home.

About: I have cared for my family’s dogs for periods ranging from a few days to several months, and I have regularly lived with dogs for long periods of time. Through this experience, I understand that caring for animals requires time, patience, responsibility, and dedication. I truly enjoy helping animals feel safe, calm, and comfortable, and I always try to create a caring environment where they can feel relaxed and secure. I would plan my daily routine to make sure your dog is included throughout the day, with dedicated time for rest, feeding, playtime, and exercise. Your dog would not only be cared for by one person, but welcomed as part of a family environment. I genuinely enjoy the company of animals and feel comfortable understanding their behaviors, needs, and personalities, which helps me provide attentive and caring support. I live in an apartment with balcony, available for pets to move around comfortably. Even large dogs can move freely, and my home is free of fragile objects, so your dog will not feel restricted or stressed while staying with me. I also live near parks and pet-friendly walking areas, which makes it easy to provide regular outdoor exercise and enjoyable walks. I understand the needs and behaviors of animals, and I would adapt my daily routine to the schedule and specific needs of your pet. I am very protective of animals, so your dog would always be safe and carefully supervised with me, especially in open or public spaces. I believe in building trust and discipline through patience, consistency, and positive interaction rather than using force. In general, I connect well with animals and enjoy giving them a sense of safety, comfort, and confidence so they can feel protected and truly enjoy their time with me.
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.
About: I have taken care of my cat for 10 years. His name is Miles and he the most lovable cat you you will ever meet. I love animals and animals should always be treated with love, care and respect. I have taken care of different type of dogs throughout my life, small to really big dogs. Animals are just like us in a way, all they need is love and attention. Cats and dogs are our babies and its it's importmant to always have a structure in they're everyday life. . When i have other Dogs or Cats I make sure to set timers so they are able to go for walks, use the bathroom, have nap time, play time and always making sure that they are eating food in a timely manner and also food that is good for the them. I live in an Condo where they can have access to the balcony to get fresh air and sun but it is fence so no animals can go over. I also have a cat and he's super very friendly and loves to cuddle. I always take time to play with animals. its very important to give them as much attention as possible. I also play dog or cat shows. Believe it or not some animals love it. I currently work at home so it works perfectly when watching any animals. Also easy for when the owners would want an update on their love ones. I love to play with animals. They are part of us and its important to show affection and love to them. It's important to know your animals and treat them with respect as well as follow how the owners care for them and imply that as well. Making them feel comfortable is important.

“Our golden retriever, Willow, is so amazingly happy at Danielle's. So excited to see Danielle, she barely notices when I'm leaving. And she looks so relaxed when I come to pick her up. And both of them seem to adore Willow. They often have other dogs and manage Willow's dog-social anxieties well.”

They are constantly sharing updates, which makes our trips more enjoyable just by knowing that our dog is also having a great time.”

“Manali and her family poured so much love onto Zeus on our most recent visit to Ottawa. He really felt comfortable there. Elsa, their dog, was so gentle and accomadating to Zeus. They were also very accomodating to allow me to pick him up for a walk when i missed him! I would gladly recommend Manali for anyone looking for a homely environment for their dog.”
“We were concerned about leaving our dog with people as our last experience with a kennels didn’t go well. We met with Janice and Renee prior to booking and were reassured. They are an amazing family and our dog found his home away from home. Janice and Renee sent pics and notes every day and this was wonderful. We can’t think of anyone else we would leave our dog with. They only let us put 5 stars but we would give them 10!!! Highly recommend this great family.”
“Meghan & Jon took amazing care of our dog, Charlie! Great communication, lots of love, and peace of mind while we were away. Highly recommend and will definitely book again!”
“Rodrigo and his family were wonderful with our dog! April was a little nervous at drop-off, but Rodrigo made sure she settled in quickly and was comfortable throughout her stay. He sent regular photo updates, which gave us so much peace of mind, and made sure she got her walks and meals on schedule. When we picked her up, she was happy and clearly well looked after. He was also flexible when we needed to shorten her stay by a night. Highly recommend Rodrigo for pet boarding we’ll definitely book with him again for April!”
“Shannon took great care of our dog. She kept us informed throughout the weekend and sent lots of great pictures. Riley came home happy and tired out. We would love to use Shannon's services again.”
“Kirat was super responsive and helped us with a last minute boarding request. Not only did she help on short notice, she was WONDERFUL with Sadie. The kids loved following along with her stay through photo’s and instagram posts and it was awesome to follow along. Kirat genuinely cared for Sadie like she was her own. Kirat will be the first place we look for boarding going forward. I cant recommend her enough!”
About: I’ve had tons of different animals growing up. Recently had to euthanize my 15 year old family boarder collie. Also an English bull dog who passed away at two due to breathing issues. I miss having a dog around, however am not ready to adopt my own just yet. Would love to have them over here and there. I Absolutely adore dogs! I currently work from home so I am always here to take care and love your animal! Will walk, feed, cuddle them and if permitted, take them where me and my family go, weather it’s a walk to the park or beach! We will love and care for your pet as our own. We have a backyard for them to pee/poo as well as a pool if they can swim. Will go on walks! I have two children who adore animals who are very gentle so we will all be spending lots of time together. Dog must be kid friendly though.
