“I’m so grateful to Jennifer and Brent for taking such good care of my dog, Mishti, while I was away. She can be a little anxious and picky with her food, but they were so patient with her and even hand-fed her to make sure she was eating. They kept me updated throughout, which really helped me feel at ease. I could tell Mishti was in caring hands. They also took her on lovely long walks, which she really enjoyed. Overall, they did an amazing job, and I wouldn’t hesitate to book them again!”

About: I’ve been caring for cats for about seven years through cat sitting for neighbours, friends and family. Cats have always been a huge part of my life and I’ve had four of my own. I understand that every cat has a unique personality, and I take the time to make them feel comfortable, safe, and cared for while you’re away. Whether it’s feeding, cleaning litter boxes, playing, giving affection (on their terms!), or simply keeping them company, I’ll treat your cat like they’re one of my own.
“It was great to have Jacqueline take care of Walter while I was away. My usually timid cat did not cower and hide which means Jackie is quiet and caring. As I understand they had great conversations - lol. She made the entire process very easy and when I returned home she had the cat's food and dishes cleaned and orderly. Thank you from Jeff & Walter.”
“Emma did a great job caring for our cats while we were away. She played with them during every visit and sent several photos so we could see the fun they were having. We will definitely book with Emma again!”
“Karen was great, would highly recommend her services. She was wonderful and easy to connect with and communicate with. She asked questions and was very good at keeping us up to date with her arrival and leaving. She also took AMAZING photos of our pup.”
“Kristen is amazing. Our cats warmed up to her immediately and she reads their cues well to engage with them. She's very communicative and provides detailed summaries of her visits, which is very reassuring. Highly recommend Kristen!”
“Monica went above and beyond during our visit. Gave them love and attention. She did extra things for our furbabies. When we did our first meet I knew instantly she was kind and her kids were so sweet with our babies. Thank you again for looking after our babies. The photos made me happy to see our furbabies doing so well under your care. Sending you best wishes”
“Marie was amazing. She took great care of our kitty and provided regular updates. It really allowed us to enjoy our time away knowing our kitty was in good hands. Marie stayed in our home for 10 days while we were away and I can highly recommend her to take care of your pet! Thank you Marie!”

I had never tried any in home pet services like this before and with Nadia's direct and clear communications I'll certainly be doing this again. Im very thankful for her help. Nadia is highly recommended, shes trustworthy and confident.”
“Malcolm was very thoughtful and caring toward our two cats. He made sure they were looked after as if he were a family member checking on them. I can tell whenever we return from a trip how things went, and the cats act as if we were just at the grocery store and came back (not 4 days), which tells us they enjoyed their care. Malcolm followed our care instructions, and everything went smoothly while we were away. We would get Malcolm to look after our cats again in the future. A++++”
“Thank you Shannon for looking in on my cat while we were out! Shannon was great, quick to respond and understanding when our plans changed due to inclement weather. Really appreciate you being there for our cat and will definitely book with you again!”

“Meagan, you and your family did such an amazing job caring for my pup, Alfie! Meagan followed all of my requests and kept me updated throughout the whole entire visit according to my request. Their home is intentionally set up to accommodate caring for a dog, with areas gated for safety. Her daughter's are also extremely sweet and I appreciate that they spent time and playing with Alfie. They are clearly dog savvy kids and were very respectful of him and his needs. I don't even think Alfie knew I was gone 🙄😂 Thank you very much Meagan & family!!”
“Jade was a great choice, Lily was excited to go back the next day. She kept me updated on how everything was going which was very appreciated and Lily loved her!”
“Karen and Jorge were amazing with Ocho! They took great care of him, kept us updated with photos throughout the day, and made us feel completely at ease. We highly recommend them and would definitely book with them again! 🐶💛”
“Thank you Siobhan for taking such good care of Whisky. He had a blast and made some new friends. We will definitely keep you in mind for our next visit in the Niagara region”
“Anna was really nice, easy to communicate with, and very accommodating! She sent us frequent updates while watching Eevee, which we really appreciated. It made us feel comfortable knowing Eevee was in good hands. Would definitely recommend Anna! Thank you :)”
“My dog seemed happy and tired when I picked him up! Very easy and quick communications, flexibility in hours and loved the convenient location (so we could do touristy stuff nearby). Highly recommend!”
“Bo had an amazing fun time with Connor! We definitely recommend Connor to care for you fur baby. We'll be back for sure! Connor was quick to respond to messages and actually did things with Bo rather than keep him in the backyard all day. Bo was happy to be included in Connor's activities and hang out with Connor when Bo was ready to rest. Thanks Connor for taking great care of our pup!”
“Stephanie did an amazing job taking care of our dog Apollo! This was our first time leaving him with anyone other than family and he loved it, but most importantly we were reassured that he was safe and doing well during the whole day. Stephanie sent us many videos and pictures of Apollo’s stay, which was amazing because we could see how much fun he was having! I will and already have booked multiple more doggy day care for Apollo with Stephanie and recommend anyone to do so too!”
“I’m so very pleased to have made a connection with Tammy. First, she was willing to meet and test herself for any allergic reaction to our Lexi. Thankfully there was none!! From the first moment we met Tammy and later her hsbd, I could see Lexi was super relaxed and at ease. Getting to know Tammy prior to arranging daycare was a pleasure. I appreciated all the questions, her eagerness to interact with Lexi, her manner of joy, gentleness and natural confident leadership while handling our girl. Our first dog-sitting went smoothly for everyone. There was excellent communication between us, I had 100% peace of mind while away and from photos Tammy shared, I could see Lexi was a very happy girl. I’m grateful to know that Tammy and Gord are people with whom we can trust and count on for future dog sitting and perhaps (hopefully!), overnight stays too ?? ?”
About: Extremely experienced and have been taking care of animals for over 15 years! I treat each pet like a family member with unconditional love <3 I am currently at home full time, so I will have unlimited time to spend with each and every fur baby! My schedule is very open; available for boarding almost 7 days a week! Caring for animals isn't just a job to me; it is natural and part of my every day life! Great size family home with lots of room and comfy furniture for them to feel right at home. I have a fully fenced in back yard, offering lots of play time outside. Awesome neighborhood for ample walks as well. I do have two friendly cats; both love and are used to dogs. If the need for crating is requested, I do have one available.
“Naomi, Sam and their family are amazing! My little puppy had such an amazing time and was exhausted when I picked him up. Huge backyard for lots of running and activities! Naomi made my puppy Navy feel at home!! Couldn’t recommend them enough ❤️”
“If you’re looking for someone trustworthy to care for your dogs, I can’t recommend Ibifuro enough. She took my two dogs, Nugget (my French Bulldog) and Shylo, on very short notice after I reached out the night before, and I was so grateful she was able to help. From the moment I dropped them off, I felt completely comfortable leaving them in her care. She is kind, patient, and clearly has a genuine love for animals. Knowing they were with someone who treated them like her own gave me real peace of mind while I was away. When I picked them up, both dogs were happy, relaxed, and well cared for. It’s obvious that she goes above and beyond to make sure every dog feels safe, comfortable, and loved. I wouldn’t hesitate to leave Nugget and Shylo with her again, and I highly recommend Ibifuro to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and dependable dog sitter. She’s wonderful, and my dogs were in the best hands.”

About: “The world would be a nicer place if everyone had the ability to love as unconditionally as a dog.”- M.K.Clinton As far as I can remember, I don’t think I have spent a day without a dog in my life. Dogs have been an essential part of my being since I was a child. I’m an avid dog lover who just needs an excuse to be with a dog anytime of the day! :-) I have first hand experience in caring for dogs for the past 9 years. I love them with all my heart & I am willing to go the extra mile to make sure that your soulful furry pal is comfortable & cherished in my home. Their presence is a blessing in any life. I work from home which gives me full flexibility & freedom to be with my fur ball ( a super friendly Pomeranian) 24/7. Hence, your fur baby will have my constant attention & love all the time. My husband is my partner in care & we will make sure your paw some little one gets all the attention he needs and even more! I have all sorts of toys (for small dogs) to activate their little smart mind & give them ample amount of exercise for a healthy lifestyle. Kindly schedule a meet & greet before your pet's stay so he/she can sniffle around the new surroundings & give his/hers warm approval :-) I look forward to meet your fur companion! Unfortunately no home boarding available at this time. Sorry for any inconvenience. Your fur babies are like my own! Always treated with love & care. Unfortunately no home boarding available at this time. Sorry for any inconvenience. Your fur babies are like my own! Always treated with love & care.

I appreciated the meet and greet and her effort to drive to Welland to do so. She is a lovely person and takes great pride in offering the best care possible. We will see you again!”
“Sarah did a great job caring for Milo. He was so sleepy after his visit so he clearly had a great time. She was also great at staying in touch and communicating with me. Thank you Sarah!!”

“We’ve only known Jenny for short time, but in that short time, she’s made a wonderful impression on both us and our Aussie/collie mix, Dexter. Her punctuality and genuine affection for Dexter have been evident from day one. Dexter eagerly awaits their walks, and it’s clear he enjoys his time with her. She knows what he needs- time off leash so he can run and run! My dog will eat anything on the ground. You have to watch him so closely and I know he's safe with her. Jenny’s professionalism and warmth have quickly earned our trust, and we’re looking forward to continuing Dexter's relationship with Jenny. We highly recommend her services to anyone seeking a reliable and caring dog walker.”
About: I've been a dog-lover and pet care provider for as long as I can remember, it's no wonder I decided to make a career out of it! I couldn't do it alone though... I hated the idea of leaving my own dog behind everyday, so I choose the dog-walking route to ensure she could come along to work with me! Together, we are a dynamic duo providing premium pet care! Our goal is to help you give your furry family members the exercise, socialisation, and routine they need to be their best and happiest selves – while providing you with peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands (and paws). Whether you’re interested in our walking service, overnight pet sitting, or other special occasion care, we’ve got you covered! We ensure every experience is lead with love, fun, and lots of care. Dog walking and pet sitting services are offered daily until 6pm usually. I'm currently available to provide overnight pet sitting from approximately 7pm to 7am.

Please don't hesitate to ask any questions regarding availability! I choose to provide overnight care in your home to ensure your pup is in the place that feels the safest and most comfortable. They get to stick to their routine and be surrounded by their own things, ensuring the least stressful experience during their time apart from you. Please keep in mind that my own dog (female, cockapoo) joins me for all overnight stays and most walking services or drop-ins, so your dog and you must be dog-friendly!
About: Hello! I’ve been around dogs my whole life, and over the past few years I’ve gotten even more involved with caring for them. For the last five years, I’ve been walking dogs in my neighborhood and looking after all kinds of breeds with different personalities and needs. I’ve also helped a few dogs recover from injuries, making sure they stayed comfortable while still keeping a simple routine. I’ve been helping out more people in my community too—especially seniors who need support with feeding, walking, or giving their pets a bath. And of course, I have my own two-year-old dog at home who’s full of energy, so I’m very used to active dogs that need lots of attention and exercise. Taking care of dogs has always felt natural to me. I genuinely enjoy it, and I’m always happy to help. I’d love to give your dog the same patient, caring, and reliable support. I have a very flexible and open schedule, so I’m available to care for your pet any time of the day, any day of the week. Whether it’s a quick visit, a long walk, or overnight care, I’ll be happy to make sure your furry friend feels comfortable, loved, and well looked after. I always treat every pet as if they were my own. When caring for dogs in my client’s home, I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved in their familiar environment. I follow all feeding and walking routines closely, keep fresh water available at all times, and give plenty of playtime, attention, and affection. I also pay close attention to each dog’s unique personality and needs — whether that means going for long, energetic walks, enjoying some quiet cuddle time, or helping shy pets feel more confident. I keep owners updated with messages, photos, and notes after every visit so they always know how their pet is doing. With my experience walking and caring for dogs of all sizes and temperaments, you can count on me to be reliable, patient, and genuinely dedicated to your pet’s happiness and well-being.
“Baxter really enjoyed his walks with Nishara. She was so caring and thoughtful of Baxters needs during a very hot week and made sure he got lots of shade and water on his walks. Baxter would give her 5 paws out of 5 paws! Highly recommend.”
“Awesome dog walker. Very prompt and really loves dogs. Bedelia just took to her and was very well behaved. Grecia even provided some nice pictures of Bedelia out on the walk.”
About: I grew up around a variety of animals, including dogs, cats, goats, bunnies, and chickens! I love pets and I love to spend my time with animals. I care deeply about all beings and love to help those needed! I am studying Psychology at Brock University, though I have a flexible schedule. My goal is to prioritize my clients on Rover and my studies. I am open to most availabilities and am excited to spend time with your fur babies! I am very gentle, with reasonable boundaries, especially depending on any care considerations with each individual client! I cannot have pets full-time in my apartment as my roommate is slightly allergic, but play dates are all good!
About: I share my life with a husband, two healthy cats and a giant breed dog who has several ongoing health issues. I have worked in the pet industry for over 11 years and I have provided pet-care services for over 12 years. I am comfortable caring for cats and dogs of all breeds, all sizes, and all life stages. I work closely with pet parents in order to provide exceptional, tailored care for their pets, including caring for elderly animals and those with special needs. I always work to build positive relationships with clients and their pets. I am experienced with walks, play sessions, veterinary visits, medication administration, raw feeding, and overnight stays. I am a retail store manager and I set my own schedule. The schedule is made one month in advance. I typically work 4-hour shifts in-store, plus I do some work from home, so I have lots of availability to visit and walk or play with your pet. I can provide overnight care any evenings of the week, but I require 7 days' notice for house-sitting bookings so that I can plan for my own pets' care while I am away from home. I am happy to learn and follow your pet's specific routines: walks, play sessions, yard time, meals, sleeping arrangements, veterinary visits, or special adventures. I am experienced walking dogs on harnesses, gentle leaders, and all collars: flat, martingale, chain, prong & tone/vibration. I will not use shock collars. I have a relaxed attitude and will never force your pet to accept petting or cuddles. I like to use treats as positive rewards, so be sure to let me know if your pet is allowed to have treats. I have lots of knowledge and experience preparing and feeding raw pet food and I am comfortable feeding chews and/or raw bones, if they are a part of your pet's diet.
About: I have experience taking care of Samoyed puppy (1 year old) for weeks at a time with around the clock care. This included walks very early in the morning to keep him out of the summer heat, feeding, brushing, entertaining, and a close careful eye as he would eat everything in sight. I am currently unemployed so my schedule is wide open. I typically get up early so I am able to do early morning walks and check-ins, as well as all throughout the day and into the evening. Spending time with dogs is my favourite way to spend the day! Since I don’t have a dog of my own at the moment, I would treat each dog like it was part of my own family, getting the highest amount of love and attention. I want to ensure each dog I care for is safe and has all of their needs met. I have lots of energy and can keep up with extremely active dogs!

I’m respectful of your home and will make sure doors, gates, and other areas are kept secure. I know every pet has a different personality, so I’ll give them the time and space they need to feel comfortable with me. I’ll never force interaction and will pay close attention to their behaviour and wellbeing.

If I notice anything unusual or have any concerns, I’ll contact you right away. 🐾❤️
About: Hi, I'm Kirsten, but you can call me Kirty as all my friends do! I've been looking after animals for other people in my life for as long as I can remember. This is where my passion lies and I want to spend as much time with animals as I can. I have years of experience with cats and dogs of all ages and breeds. Next up on my list of things to learn is animal CPR! I will update once I'm certified. I work a part-time job with fairly flexible hours, and have had to balance both working and pet care many times over the last 5 years. My main priority is to do whatever is best for the pets, so I always find a way to fit them into my schedule. I'm very easy-going so we can always find something that works, together! I've spent many days and nights having slumber parties with pets at the owners houses. Whatever the pet needs, I'm there! I've had to follow special diets, provide medications, and even dealt with night terrors. I love to care for every animal as if they're my own!

He came home tired from something in spite of the fact they are in an apartment. I will definitely request additional stays for Olly. Karen and Jorge are very kind and caring!! Thanks to them both….”

“Charlene took great care of our Gracie for a day and overnight while we were out of town. We were fortunate that she was able to accommodate us on short notice! Charlene also sent us lots of pictures and some videos where we could tell that Gracie was having lots of fun playing with her own dog Dora, as well as some downtime resting with Dora. We would definitely be happy leaving Gracie again in Charlene’s care.”
“Buddy was looked after very well. We really enjoyed the pictures that they sent to us.we hope to use them again for future trips,because we know he’ll be well looked after”
“Chelsea was wonderful with our two dogs. They came home happy and they seemed even more bonded to each other, which is amazing because on of them is a recent rescue. Chelsea is knowledgable about the needs of our rescue pups. I felt secure knowing they were in a good home, with attentive care while we were away.”
“Lise and Luwam were absolutely amazing. Webster fit right in and was very comfortable staying with them. We received many updates throughout the day which reassured us he was ok being away from us. When we got back to pick him up he jumped back on the couch and gave Lise more cuddles. We would definitely book with them again”
“Monica and her children were great with Nova. Nova got lots of attention and I got great updates and pictures regularly on how Nova was doing :) I will definitely rebook with her in the future”
“Bailey was an amazing sitter! She was able to take Eva on very short notice and was incredibly accommodating, communicative, and kind throughout the entire stay. From the moment we met, I felt comfortable leaving Eva with her. She provided plenty of photo updates, which gave me peace of mind and made it clear that Eva was being well cared for and having a great time. Overall, it was a great experience, and I wouldn’t hesitate to book with Bailey again. I’m looking forward to rebooking with her whenever I’m in the Niagara region! 😊”
