“5 STAR ! Courtney and Ryan were wonderful with our fur baby when we left her for daycare and for an overnight visit. Sienna was well looked after and absolutely loved playing with Courtney and Ryan's own puppers, Charli and Buttercup. There is no better feeling than knowing that your puppy is happy visiting and spending time with Courtney and Ryan and Charli and Buttercup. THANK YOU ! Susie and Craig”
“Carol and family was a second home to Bauer! They took great care and we knew he was well looked after all weekend. We will definitely have Carol look after Bauer in the future without hesitation. Thank you so much!”
“Loved the experience with Jennifer from start to finish. Love the fact that she only takes on two dogs at once aside from her own and gave me daily updates. My dog was much more relaxed and not stressed like when I used to pick him up at the kennel.”
“This is our dogs second stay with Rita. Our dog was calm and happy when we picked him up. Even though he only stayed 2 nights Rita send us great photos and updates. It really gives us peace of mind he is so well cared for. I highly recommend her services”
“She had experienced to take care of pets. My pet was not easy to care for but she totally could make him happy and get along with others quickly. We were happy to send my pet to her.”
“Lea was amazing with my cat. He's normally very shy and hides the whole time, but she convinced him to come out! Her home is very clean and I would absolutely book with her again!”
“We were worried leaving Dexter with a sitter as he is generally very oriented and has anxiety issues. Lynn put us at ease the first day we were away with pictures that showed Dexter was happy and well taken care of. He got lots of attention and walks .We are happy, and sure Dexter was happy with Lynn and her husband. We would defiantly use Lynn again.”
“Adlynn and her family, two doggies and partner, did an outstanding job of caring for my dog. He was very nervous and not used to being away from me. Adlynn was able to gradually get him to feel safe and he really enjoyed the rest of the time there. I would highly recommend!”

“William and Hillary were great! They send daily updates and Harley had a mini vacation. Would highly recommend. Plus they were available for Christmas which was appreciated!”
“So lovely! Jinx had an amazing time with Alexis and her boy Milo. Alexis took extra care during a sensitive time for Jinx and truly went above and beyond to ensure she was comfortable and well cared for :)”
“Amazing experience! She was so attentive to my pup the whole time, you could tell she took great care of her. My little girl had so much fun and was happy the entire stay. She also kept me updated constantly with photos and updates, which gave me so much peace of mind. Highly recommend, I’ll definitely book with her again. Thank you so much for taking such good care of her! 🐾”
“Takes good care of pet. However, it is good note that she seems to take care of other dogs at the same time as far as I could ascertain … also, she has a very friendly golden retriever, which is good. My main tip to her is that she should take more videos and photos throughout the day of the babysat dog and interactions with her other dogs. Regardless of all the points mentioned above, the service isgenerally high quality. We would book her again.”
“Thank you so much Joyce 😃 Koda really enjoyed his stay with you, he has happy and was able to made some friends 🤎🐶!!! We have peace the whole time and every picture reinforced it, for sure he will be staying with you next time 😊”
“Mohiny & Lucas O. were the best puppy sitters ever!! We met for a meet and greet and connected with them right away - we just knew they would take exceptional care of our pet. Their genuine love of animals was evident from the start. Our pet was very happy with them and enjoyed all the walks she took with Mohiny & Lucas O. Mohiny & Lucas O. sent us lots of pictures of our pet in action and kept us very well informed about how she was eating, resting, and playing throughout her time with them. We would happily have them look after our pet anytime knowing that she will be very well cared for and loved. Thank you, Mohiny & Lucas!!”
“Sue is a very kind and caring person that loves dogs. She took very good care of my dog while I was away. I would gladly trust her to take care of my dog again without any reservations.”
“Once again Catherine provided great and loving care for our dog while we traveled. We are so glad to have a place where our dog is loved and cared for when we are gone. Catherine is great.”

About: Hi there, My name is Alexis, and I am an Elementary School Teacher, looking for a side gig to make some extra money working with animals! For my entire life, I have had personal experience caring for and walking dogs as I have always had at least one or two of my own at home. I have had 10 years of experience dog walking, and pet sitting here and there for friends, family and neighbours. I currently have a border collie x Labrador retriever mix, and I have had many others dogs including smaller dogs in the past. I love dogs of any breed and size and am able to work with more than one at a time for those with more than one dog in the family. I have had experience training my own dogs throughout my life for puppy age, as well as have worked with senior dogs as well. I love dogs and pets of any kind, and hopefully, look forward to meeting your furry friends. Connect with me if you are interested or have any questions, text, call or email me. I will get back to you as soon as I can. I am currently working full time as a teacher from 9-3:30 Monday - Friday. So I am available in the early morning or early and later evening. I am also available on the weekends and holidays. For dog boarding, I can take dogs for longer stays, they would sometimes just have longer days at home without a human. 8 hours max. I have a fenced in yard and a lovey border collie at home to keep your furry friend company. I can offer crating, treats and adventures when your dog stays with me. Your dog would get walks depending on their physical needs and a solid routine with consistent feeding times and exercise.
“Thanks, Rita, for everything. It was clear from the beginning the boys were calm (as calm as they get!) and comfortable in your presence - and so were we. We appreciate your responsiveness and kindness. Hope to see you again!”
“Appreciated Dannie’s ability to work around my changing schedule. Dannie was terrific in responding to messages and coming out to meet the crew and go over their routines and various aspects of the house. Dannie was also terrific with the 3 cats and sent me photos and updates. They are indoor outdoor cats and she managed that well plus keeping the bird feeder topped up. Washing was done before I arrived home to a home cooked meal and some lovely flowers. I would highly recommend Dannie. A responsible and caring sitter. You will feel comfortable and confident leaving her to be in charge.”

Having grown up with cats always in the family, I have a deep appreciation for feline independence and comfort. Combined with my formal training in Veterinary Office Administration, I understand how to read cat body language, respect their boundaries, keep their litter and feeding stations impeccably clean, and make sure your kitty feels safe and pampered while you are away.
About: I have owned animals since I was a kid. I just recently had my dog pass away and I am very keen on looking after your fur baby like they were my own! My passion is to work with animals. I currently live in an apartment so I’m looking for dog walks or dog sits but once I have a house I will be open to boarding!! As long as your dog gets along with other animals I will be able to allow them in my home ☺️ I do live in an apartment but constantly go outside as I have a dog of my own. I also go on trail walks around the area and can take them to the dog park if allowed.

“Nayeli was amazing with our little fur baby. He had lots of fun and eat well. I will definitely be booking with Nayeli again. Nayeli provided pictures and updates of our little one. She is awesome”
“She was amazing and I’ll always come to her if I need someone to take care of Maverick. She made sure my puppy who is 5 months was introduced to the other dogs slowly and comfortably. She sent me many updates, photos and videos. I had someone cancel on me last minute and she responds right away. I’m very happy and recommend her to anyone using this app! She also has a lot of availability, flexibility, a yard and ensures the puppies needs are being met. She made sure all my questions were answered and that I was confident to put Maverick in her care!”
“Jennifer was great to watch our dog while we stopped into a friend’s house over the holidays. Her communication was great and we could tell when we dropped Tyson off that he was in good hands. Would definitely use her services again!”
About: I offer safe, loving in-home boarding in a calm environment with a secure backyard for supervised play. I have two friendly dogs, a mini poodle and a bichon, who are well socialized and gentle with other dogs. I keep routines consistent with regular walks, feeding schedules, and lots of attention so your dog feels comfortable and cared for. My home is clean, structured, and designed to be a relaxed home away from home. If you’d like it a little more playful or a little more premium, I can adjust the tone for you 😊 Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I already care for my own two dogs. I plan my mornings and evenings around walks, feeding times, and play sessions, and I’m used to maintaining consistent schedules. I work in a structured way, so I can easily incorporate drop-ins, walks, or overnight care while ensuring each dog receives focused attention and companionship. Safety and comfort are my top priorities. In my home, I maintain a clean, calm, and secure environment where pets are supervised and never left in unsafe situations. I follow each pet’s feeding, walking, and medication instructions carefully and keep routines consistent to reduce stress. In a client’s home, I respect their space, maintain clear communication, and provide updates for peace of mind. I treat every pet as if they were my own — with patience, attentiveness, and genuine care.
“My girl Daisy is a beagle who loves to chase anything that moves! Kollin and Emmalee have an older precious kitty who I had some concerns about. Kollin was receptive to having Daisy stay, and not 10 minutes after I dropped Daisy off, I received a video of their first meeting, which was a huge success. I very much appreciate that as it made my trip so much more enjoyable. I could tell during our initial Meet and Greet we had found not just a safe place, but a fun one. Daisy was in great hands with Kollin, and Emmalee, and we will definitely become repeat visitors!”
“Lama was a fantastic sitter, very communicative and kind with our Blue. He came back happy and calm ☺️ Whenever we are in London again we will have 0 hesitation to book with her again.”
“Marcia was absolutely wonderful with our 9 week old puppy. She gave him an at home feel and gave me piece of mind while I was working. I will definitely be having her watch our pup again!”
“Bill was terrific. Our dog was happy and relaxed when we picked him up. Bill was accommodating and attentive, excellent communication throughout. Would recommend Bill. Thanks for taking such great care of our furry family member.”
“Angela and family were awesome! They were very nice to talk with and frequently shared what our furbaby was doing. We always saw how happy our dog was, he had a great time!”
“Amazing!! I loved how many pictures and videos Alexandria sent me it was very comforting knowing Leo was happy! She is very communicative and extremely understanding as we were running late and she was great about that! Will be going to her again 100%. Also she kept Leo busy all day so he wasnt anxious.”
“My experience with Smita was amazing! We had a 13-year-old lab that was very well taken care of. I loved the updates and pics that Smita sent me. We will contact her again, for sure. 🧡🐶”

“Raquelle saved me on a holiday weekend by agreeing to walk my dog and feed her dinner when I was out of town for a few hours. She responded right away and was very communicative and easy to plan with. She left a great update on how things went and I can see from the pictures she took that my somewhat timid puppy had a fun walk with her :)”
“Rita was so amazing with my little dachshund. She is very calm and has a beautiful energy. She is very responsive and made me feel that my dog was always in good hands. We recently moved and miss her very much!”

“Walter showed up promptly to meet Stryker and we made arrangements for 3 walks while we were on vacation. He showed up, sent pictures and a map of their walk. Put my mind at ease while away that he was getting exercise. Would definitely recommend Walter to anyone looking for pet care. Very satisfied.”
About: I’ve been working with animals for as long as I can remember. I have two years of professional animal care experience, along with a lifetime of personal experience with a wide variety of animals — including guinea pigs, fish, horses, goats, cats, chickens, and more! I’m also experienced in caring for animals with special needs and administering medications. Patience, understanding, and compassion are at the heart of how I approach every animal — I always strive to meet your pet exactly where they’re at. I can’t wait to meet your furbaby! I am not working at the moment so I have plenty of time to focus on your pet's needs! They will be the main part of my routine. Safety will be my biggest priority when working with your pet. I will make sure they are supervised at all times outside. They will always be leashed during walks and, I will make sure the equipment you've requested to be used is secure and put on correctly.

I’m experienced in administering medications, maintaining feeding routines, and offering basic training reinforcement. I treat every dog like my own and pride myself on being reliable, respectful, and fully present during every visit or stay. Let’s make your pet’s time away from you feel just like home—safe, happy, and well-cared for! I work from home and my wife is sometimes working from home. So we can take care of the pups together during the week and weekends we both are home and take out dogs for play and activities. I have a fenced yard and my dog loves playing in there. Lots of space to play around. I take them for walks every 2 to 4 hours to get their business done.
About: I love dogs and going on long walks; it’s the best of both worlds! I have worked with dogs of various ages, energy levels, and behaviour. Whether your dog likes to run, play, and walk for hours, or just likes to chill with a pal, I got it! I have worked with puppies and older dogs, reactive dogs when other dogs are near, feeding dogs medication, beep collars, crate-trained dogs, etc. I’d love to meet your fur-friends, learn more about them, and will happily accompany them on walks and play time! I am currently working part-time, more so in the evenings, so I have plenty of time from early mornings til 2-4 that I can walk your pups and provide pet care. As it is only part-time, I am still able to work evenings sometimes! I am in school from Sept.-April, therefore I have plenty of time for long walks and pet care now and am available to be your daily morning dog-walker! I do not offer pet care in my home, although am able to provide pet care in a clients home! All of my pet care experience has been in other people’s homes, whether it was dropping in for a potty break, quick walk, or a long walk, even last minute! I have also provided pet care staying overnight in a client’s home for a minimum of 1 night-2.5 weeks. I may not be able to get time off of my part-time job when staying in a client’s home so I hope it is okay if I am gone for 4-8 hours in the evening for a couple of the evenings, if it falls on the days I am scheduled. I have always made sure to time out feeding and walks according to my work schedule when needed.
“Although Nicole and I were not able to complete our days of dog walks, I enjoyed meeting her so much and the one walk my dog had was very successful. We have just been through the worst heat wave I ever remember in Southwestern Ontario, so it was just too hot for my dog and for Nicole to be walking. But we stayed in touch each day and made our decisions together about the extreme weather. I'm only sorry that we did not get to know each other better. I would never hesitate to contact her another time.”
About: I've had dogs all my life honestly. Big and small. I'm also the friend everyone goes to when they need helpnwith their dog. I have experience with breeds from chihuahuas to huskies. I currently have a very flexible schedule as inonly work part time. I am gone every other weekend tho. I'd be able to accommodate almost any schedule. I'd be following any given instructions for the dogs home and would keep them in the routine. Comfortable happyband loved. Your dog would also have a playmate with mine if friendly for park dates so they wouldn't be inside all day long.
About: Hi, My name is Lisa! :) Animals have always had such a special spot in my heart. Their innocence, loyalty and friendship is truly such a gift to us as humans. Being raised with multiple Golden Retrievers since I was 11 years old has taught me a lot about doggies. I have been around the puppy stage many times and I know that not only are they adorable but they do require babysitting and lots of attention. My own dogs, as well as others, have become seniors and I am aware of how delicate that season of their life is too. I am extra attentive to animals needs and am often the one in a group that over makes sure the dog has enough water, that they are up to date on eating and that their needs have been met. Snuggle time is also a bonus :) I can assure you that you won't need to worry at all if your fur-family member is being cared for when you are away! I have a family Golden Retriever. Although I am back and forth from my parents place, seeing him, spending time with him and being there for him is a pleasure! I am more than willing to come and stay at my clients homes while they are away to fursit! Whether its walks, runs, or special care that is needed for their loved one, I would love to be able to provide that for them.
About: I specialize in caring for high-energy dogs who need more than just a walk. As the owner of a young, energetic American Labrador, Reni, I understand how important exercise, patience, enrichment, and mental stimulation are for dogs with lots of energy. Reni has taught me how to channel that energy in positive ways through training, enrichment activities, scent work, and engaging play. I’ve loved dogs my entire life and grew up with family dogs and other animals. I also have experience caring for neighbours’ pets and have developed hands-on experience with positive reinforcement and managing some dog reactivity through my own dog. I’m patient, reliable, and passionate about helping high-energy dogs feel happy, fulfilled, and well cared for. I work an 8am-4pm schedule from home, allowing for some flexibility during the day and I can largely accomodate walks before and after work and on weekends. I strive to make your time away as stress free as possible for your pet. By following their regular routine and giving them plenty of attention, affection and excercise.
About: Growing up we had various pets to take care of and learn responsibility for so my love of animals started young. I have over the years done drop in visits, overnight stays at your home as well as having your pet at my own place. Each pet is unique and their care should reflect that. I have cared for senior animals with various medication requirement as well as puppies just finding their bearings. I appreciate the simplicity of going for a walk and believe that having a dog alongside yo u enhances the experience. I currently work shift work with 5 days off at a time so my schedule fluctuates, but allows for an ample amount of free time to be adjusted for your needs. Prior to care, I would discuss with you the pet's schedule and routine as well as their needs to ensure they get the proper care. This would also include any additional information about your pet for situational circumstances and their personality. While your animal is in my care I do provide updates to give peace of mind.
About: Hi, i’m Rayne and am looking to start dog walking again I am excited to meet some new furry faces! i’ve been a lover of all animals since before I can even remember! I have a huge passion for working with all kinds of animals. Up to now I have taken care of every kind of breed of dog I can think of. I myself have cane corsos of my own, as well as the best cat i could have asked for. I love being around animals of all kinds! I have open availability and am able to watch/walk your animals at anytime, with great and negotiable rates. If you have any questions or concern please don’t hesitate to reach out! Thanks for taking some time to get to know me :) I currently am unemployed at the moment so I am able to walk or watch your dog whenever is needed, I have a very open availability! I like to take the dogs for long walks or like to go to fields nearby so they can run off leash for a little bit and go wild (if owners permit me doing so), or also throw balls and other canine friendly toys. For pet sitting cats, i’ve never met a cat that didn’t make me their new best friend sooner or later. Feeding and additional care is never an issue but of course feel free for any specific requests on feeding and caring for your pets!

“5 STAR ! Courtney and Ryan were wonderful with our fur baby when we left her for daycare and for an overnight visit. Sienna was well looked after and absolutely loved playing with Courtney and Ryan's own puppers, Charli and Buttercup. There is no better feeling than knowing that your puppy is happy visiting and spending time with Courtney and Ryan and Charli and Buttercup. THANK YOU ! Susie and Craig”
“Loved the experience with Jennifer from start to finish. Love the fact that she only takes on two dogs at once aside from her own and gave me daily updates. My dog was much more relaxed and not stressed like when I used to pick him up at the kennel.”
“She had experienced to take care of pets. My pet was not easy to care for but she totally could make him happy and get along with others quickly. We were happy to send my pet to her.”
“Lea was amazing with my cat. He's normally very shy and hides the whole time, but she convinced him to come out! Her home is very clean and I would absolutely book with her again!”
“We were worried leaving Dexter with a sitter as he is generally very oriented and has anxiety issues. Lynn put us at ease the first day we were away with pictures that showed Dexter was happy and well taken care of. He got lots of attention and walks .We are happy, and sure Dexter was happy with Lynn and her husband. We would defiantly use Lynn again.”
“Adlynn and her family, two doggies and partner, did an outstanding job of caring for my dog. He was very nervous and not used to being away from me. Adlynn was able to gradually get him to feel safe and he really enjoyed the rest of the time there. I would highly recommend!”
“William and Hillary were great! They send daily updates and Harley had a mini vacation. Would highly recommend. Plus they were available for Christmas which was appreciated!”
“So lovely! Jinx had an amazing time with Alexis and her boy Milo. Alexis took extra care during a sensitive time for Jinx and truly went above and beyond to ensure she was comfortable and well cared for :)”
“Amazing experience! She was so attentive to my pup the whole time, you could tell she took great care of her. My little girl had so much fun and was happy the entire stay. She also kept me updated constantly with photos and updates, which gave me so much peace of mind. Highly recommend, I’ll definitely book with her again. Thank you so much for taking such good care of her! 🐾”
“Takes good care of pet. However, it is good note that she seems to take care of other dogs at the same time as far as I could ascertain … also, she has a very friendly golden retriever, which is good. My main tip to her is that she should take more videos and photos throughout the day of the babysat dog and interactions with her other dogs. Regardless of all the points mentioned above, the service isgenerally high quality. We would book her again.”
“Thank you so much Joyce 😃 Koda really enjoyed his stay with you, he has happy and was able to made some friends 🤎🐶!!! We have peace the whole time and every picture reinforced it, for sure he will be staying with you next time 😊”
“Mohiny & Lucas O. were the best puppy sitters ever!! We met for a meet and greet and connected with them right away - we just knew they would take exceptional care of our pet. Their genuine love of animals was evident from the start. Our pet was very happy with them and enjoyed all the walks she took with Mohiny & Lucas O. Mohiny & Lucas O. sent us lots of pictures of our pet in action and kept us very well informed about how she was eating, resting, and playing throughout her time with them. We would happily have them look after our pet anytime knowing that she will be very well cared for and loved. Thank you, Mohiny & Lucas!!”
“Sue is a very kind and caring person that loves dogs. She took very good care of my dog while I was away. I would gladly trust her to take care of my dog again without any reservations.”

“Emily did an amazing job looking after Harley. We couldn't be happier with the care she provided. She sent us lots of photos and updates, which gave us peace of mind and made us feel that our girl was being very well looked after. Thank you so much, Emily, for taking such wonderful care of Harley. We truly appreciate it and would highly recommend you to anyone looking for a caring and reliable pet sitter. 🐾”
