“Hayley did a fantastic job with Coco. Hayley responds quickly. She made a lot of pictures so we don't worry about Coco. I saw Coco's pictures lounging on the couch, walking together with Penny. Thank you so much for taking care of Coco. We will do this again.”
“Heather and Matt were absolutely incredible with Charlie during our 10 days away. We had met with another sitter before them and it just didn’t feel right, but from our very first meet and greet with Heather and Matt, we immediately knew they were the perfect fit. We felt confident leaving Charlie in their care. They treated him like part of their family and truly loved him. Their communication was exceptional—we received regular updates and lots of photos, which gave us such peace of mind. This was especially important to us as Charlie had recently had surgery to remove a lump on his back and still had stitches. They followed all instructions perfectly and were so attentive and caring. Charlie is also very spoiled and loves being cozy with his blankets, and they went above and beyond by setting up his bed near the fireplace to keep him warm! We felt completely at ease the entire time and were so impressed that we’ve already booked another stay. We cannot recommend Heather and Matt highly enough.”
“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”
“Meagan was a great communicator and provided lots of pictures of our girl. We could see that she had lots of fun, and was well taken care of. Would definitely recommend her.”
“Samantha took great care of our Old English Sheepdog (Mick) while we were away for a week over the holidays. We were updated with photos and can’t say enough good things about her and the care/attention she provided. We highly recommend Samantha and will gladly be repeat customers. Thank you Samantha!”
“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!”
“This was the first positive boarding experience our 9yr old golden retriever has ever had (admittedly he usually stays in kennels). Normally, our retriever is stressed and anxious but Maddie clearly has a lot of experience and settled our dog almost immediately. Her home and yard provide the perfect environment whether your dog is active or just prefers to lounge on the couch. Her obedient lab and daschund were great companions. A nearby park and green space/creek provide a convenient off-the-road exercise venue. Maddie walked our dog right at sunrise before it got too hot and gauged his energy level throughout the 3 day stay to ensure he wasn't overworked. She provided frequent updates with photos and clearly he was a very happy dog. Medication was also property administered. I certainly plan to use Maddie's services again and highly recommend her!”
“Karen and Jorge were great with our little dog Gracie. Gracie took to them right away, was clearly comfortable in their home and they spoiled her with love and attention. They sent us photos and updates throughout the weekend. We will happily book again with Karen and Jorge.”
“Jolene and Martin are communicative, flexible, and welcoming. My dog Angel seemed at ease immediately in their home, and got along well with their family including their kids! They sent photos and updates to let me know how she was doing, which was so appreciated. I’ll definitely reach out to them again next time I need a sitter!”
“Deborah was terrific. She provided a safe, and loving home for our dog. Was easy to communicate with. Her dog was wonderful company for Sadie. Our dog left happy and tired. Thanks so much!!”
“It’s my first time that I had to leave Abu, and Stephanie did a really great job taking care of her. I got a lot of pics and videos show Abu’s happy face everyday. Penny is so also caring and I think they make such a cute team! Just adorable.”
“Shelly and her family were absolutely wonderful with Phoebe! We were able to enjoy our holiday completely stress-free, knowing she was in such safe and loving hands. They treated Phoebe like one of their own, and it was so clear how well cared for she was. We would absolutely trust them with her again in a heartbeat. Highly recommend!”
“Anna was very communicative during Barleys stay. She sent pictures videos and updates. Her dog Pepper and Barley got alone famously. Anna was also accommodating for some slight time changes we need. We have already booked again.”
“Thank you Monique for taking care of Norman. Honestly I think he’s sad to be home . I think he’s missing his doggy buddies. Thanks for the steady updates and pictures. We know who to book when we need a doggy mamma.”
“Ruth was quite attentive to Molly, as well as putting my mind at ease with daily notes. Molly was well cared for. Ruth was patient with Mollys anxiety on hardwood floors, by putting out her carpets and runners! We will connect with Ruth again!”
“Siobhan was awesome with Beanz! She had a great yard and nice dog. Beanz cried a bit at night and she went the extra mile to get up and stay on the couch with him. You can tell she is a dog lover, Beanz seemed to have an awesome time. Thanks Siobhan!”
“Jade was awesome! Sh looked after my 15 week old pup Marlo and made me feel very comfortable leaving her there. She made sure that Marlo would get along with the other dog in her care and would send me pictures of Marlo. Also her response time was always very quick. Would highly recommend.”

“Jacqueline is an absolutely wonderful sitter! She took excellent care of our little girl while we were away. It was Scarlett's first time without her humans, and considering she has a tough past, we were concerned about how she would feel. Jacqueline made sure that Scarlett felt safe and comfortable, offering kindness, soft words, and continued patience. She was always on time and made sure to send us photos and updates 🙂 We would definitely recommend Jacqueline and hope that she would want to sit for Scarlett again in the future 💖 Thanks again, Jacqueline!”
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.
“Jade was amazing! We booked her in last minute and she was great! She made the time to come meet our cats before her visits and was super responsive throughout the week. Would highly recommend if you need someone local.”
“Julie was great. It didn't matter too much to my kitties that she arrived when she said she would, but she did, which was peace of mind for me. I'm happy to recommend Julie and looking forward to the next vacation when we she will hopefully help us out again.”
About: I specialize in caring for cats of all personalities — from confident social butterflies to shy, cautious, or independent cats who need time and patience. I’m a mom to five rescue babies, each with their own history, quirks, and challenges. Some arrived anxious, some came from trauma, and others needed slow, gentle trust-building. Because of them, I’ve developed a strong understanding of feline behaviour, body language, and emotional needs. I’m very comfortable supporting cats who: • are shy, fearful, or slow to warm up • require calm, predictable routines • who have their own routines • prefer quiet companionship over active play I always move at a cat’s pace. I respect boundaries, create a safe environment, and let each cat decide how they want to interact. Whether your cat loves attention or prefers a soft voice and space, I adapt to what makes them feel secure. Your cat will be treated with the same care, patience, and understanding I give my own children.
“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”
About: Over the years, I have developed a deep understanding and love for feline behavior through my experience with fostering and rescuing cats. I am particularly proud to have rescued my own three stray cats, a journey that taught me exactly what it takes to earn a cat's trust, read their subtle body language, and provide a safe, stress-free environment. Whether your kitty is a social butterfly who demands constant playtime or a shy soul who just needs a quiet, patient presence, my firsthand experience with rescues means I know how to cater to their unique boundaries and make them feel completely secure while you are away.
About: I am 110% a cat person! I am so passionate about cats, understanding their personalities and various needs. I love how independent they can be, and how important and meaningful it is when you earn their trust. I have had cats since I was a baby and try to make friends with every cat I come across.
About: I’ve had animals of different kinds all my life. Experience taking care of puppies and senior dogs. Love taking dogs on walks and willing to customize pet care to your dogs needs. I work full time but my work is flexible and allows me to work from home some days. Most weekends are free for me to provide in house sitting, bathroom breaks or walks. I am cautious with dogs on the leash and keep them away from busy streets and make sure they are safe while playing. Depending on the dog, I will also keep them away from other dogs if necessary.

About: Growing up, I always had animals in my life and I can't imagine living without a pet. My Siberian Husky and Alaskan Malamute are so much more than pets—they're family. They're my constant companions, my greatest source of unconditional love and my best friends.

“Hartwin had an amazing time at doggy daycare. Hayley was very warm and welcoming, and Hartwin couldn't wait to get inside and play with her absolutely adorable dog, Penny. Throughout the day, Hayley sent updates and photos. Hartwin was so tired from all the playing! I can't wait to book Hartwin with Hayley and Penny again.”
About: Loving care for your beloved pets while you’re away 💚 I treat your pets like family. Whether you need a reliable sitter, someone to watch your pets while on vacation or extra love for, I am here to help with compassionate, experienced care. Pet care is a happy part of my everyday life. I love keeping pets on their usual routines, getting to know their unique personalities, and making sure they feel safe, comfy, and loved while you’re away. Whether it’s walks, playtime, belly rubs, or cozy cuddle breaks, I treat every pet like my own (and maybe spoil them just a little). Reliable, attentive care—with lots of love, happy tails, and purrs included. 💕🐾 When pets come to my home, they’re treated like part of the family—just with more fresh air and room to roam. I live on a quiet country property that offers a calm, cozy, and playful environment where pets can relax, explore, and enjoy a little extra freedom (safely supervised, of course). Between outdoor time, walks, naps, cuddles, and sticking to familiar routines, your pet gets lots of attention and care throughout the day. My goal is simple: a safe, happy stay with country comfort, plenty of love, and very content tails and paws. 🌾🐕🐾
“Meagan was an outstanding sitter! She treated our Violet like her own and gave us frequent updates. If we lived closer she’d be my go to every single time! Our pup had the best time with her and her girls. I cannot recommend her more highly!”
“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! 🐶💛”
“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 ?? ?”
“Stephanie and her daughter were just the best! She was quick to accept my last-minute request and was so flexible. She sent tons of pictures and videos which I loved, and my dog seemed super content after spending the day becoming besties with Stephanie's daughter.”
“Frankie always has a great time at Naomi and Sam’s place and they go above and beyond to ensure she’s well cared for. They’re so down to earth. Frankie can’t wait for her next stay 🥰”
“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”
About: Being a dog lover my entire life, I have always taken any opportunity to work with dogs. My first job was at Ren’s Pets Depot, where I was able to interact with pets and their owners every day. Over the years, I have raised three guide dogs through the Lions Foundation of Canada Dog Guides, as well as provided dog sitting for their fosters and career-changed dogs. I also worked at the Hamilton/Burlington SPCA as a canine assessor. In addition, I have volunteered as a photographer for various animal rescue organizations such as Save Our Scruff and Bark at the Moon K9 Rescue. Because of this experience, I have the ability and knowledge to care for a wide range of dogs, from puppies to anxious dogs to rescues. I can provide a calm, structured, and welcoming environment tailored to each pup’s individual needs. Lyndon, my 7-year-old black Lab mix and career-changed guide dog, is easygoing and social. He loves the company of other dogs and will be a steady, friendly companion during their stay. Olly, my 6-month-old dachshund, is a bit more reserved at first but warms up with time. Once comfortable, she enjoys playful moments like chase and fetch! Together, Lyndon and Olly help create a balanced home environment that can suit both confident and more sensitive dogs. You can follow along our daily adventures on Instagram to get a better sense of what life is like in our house! I work most days from home and have a very flexible schedule. I will be able to adjust my work day to best fit your dogs needs and keep them in a routine they are comfortable with. I have two friendly dogs at home who help create a calm, social environment for visiting pets. My black Lab mix, Lyndon, is very easygoing and loves the company of other dogs, making him a steady companion during their stay. I also have Olly my 6-month-old miniature dachshund, who is a bit more reserved at first but settles in with time and enjoys gentle play once she is comfortable. With over 14 years of experience in dog care, including fostering, working with rescues, and assessing dogs professionally, you can feel confident that your pup will be cared for, understood, and loved as if they were my own. I always aim to create a safe, structured, and comfortable environment tailored to each dog’s individual needs.

About: Hi, I’m Anna! 🐾🩷 I’ve always had a huge love for animals, and there’s honestly nothing quite like the happiness and companionship they bring into our lives. I love spending time with pets because every dog has their own little personality. Whether they’re playful and energetic, shy and cuddly, or happiest curled up beside you, I genuinely enjoy getting to know them and making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I’m a very caring and attentive pet sitter, and I treat every animal in my care like they’re my own. I love going for walks, playing, giving lots of cuddles and belly rubs, and of course taking way too many photos! 😂🐶 Knowing that I can give someone peace of mind while they’re away is one of my favourite parts of pet sitting. There’s nothing better than coming home to a happy pup — and I feel pretty lucky that I get to be part of that. 💕 I’ve always had dogs in my life and absolutely love being around them. 🐾 I currently have my own little pup, Pepper, who is a Pomeranian/Bichon mix and is very much part of the family. He’s playful, affectionate, an absolute pampered prince and has given me lots of experience understanding the little quirks and personalities that make every dog different. 🩷 I also have experience caring for other people’s dogs through pet sitting and dog boarding, including regular repeat clients. I’ve cared for dogs with different ages, energy levels, personalities, and routines, and I’m comfortable providing walks, playtime, companionship, feeding, medication when needed, and lots of cuddles. I understand how important it is to leave your pet with someone you trust, so I’m very attentive to their routine and individual needs. My goal is always for them to feel happy, safe, and completely at home while they’re in my care. 🐶💕 I work from home and I live in the north end of St. Catharines. My home backs onto sunset beach (Lake Ontario) and there are endless pathways to explore! I am available for extended stays in my home and welcome to short term, drop ins and doggy walking - I’m flexible with scheduling and also willing to travel a reasonable distance! I have experience caring for both small and large dogs, I currently have a little Pomeranian mix floof puppy. I understand that your pets are family and I promise to love them dearly and make them feel safe in your absence :)
“We had such a wonderful first experience with daycare thanks to Kelly! She took care of our French Bulldog, Ollie, for two days and made the entire process so easy and reassuring. Her communication was excellent, and we especially appreciated the daily video updates — it gave us so much peace of mind seeing how happy and well cared for he was. Kelly was warm, attentive, and clearly great with dogs. We’re so grateful and would absolutely trust her with Ollie again!”
“I can't say enough good things about Jolene and Martin! Ellie loved them and loved going to their home for care:) she came home tired and hungry and that was great! She was so excited when we were in the car turning onto their street, it was so reassuring to see! This is my first experience with doggy daycare and I won't hesitate to book them again should the need arise:) thank you for being so good to my Ellie!!!”
“Monica provided excellent care to Sully and was extremely professional in assuring me that he would be watched carefully. 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!”

“Julie was terrific with Lucy. Even though she was a bit timid, Julie was patient and caring, waiting for Lucy to warm up and feel safe. We will certainly use Julie for future walks.”
“This was our first time leaving our Benji alone for a week. We were feeling very unsure and anxious as to how to go about this. Our daughter was getting married in Mexico and everyone we knew would attend. A friend mentioned Rover and we investigated. But who to trust? After a few attempts, we noticed Jade with all her great reviews. It was the right decision! Jade was prompt, courteous, lovely with huge smiles. Most importantly, Benji warmed right up to her! We knew it then. Our worries faded quickly. Every day, twice, we were texted the time of walking, the map of the route, his activity and pictures. It made our week! Jade was so consistent and thorough, we vowed to give her a big SHOUT OUT! Thank you from the bottom of our hearts, the assurance was greatly appreciated! :)”
“Great experience with Connor! He was very reliable and able to cater to Milo’s needs (reactive on leash). He’s knowledgeable and clearly a big dog lover! Very happy overall.”

“Our dog Trooper had the pleasure of being walked by Heaven. (during our March break) She was kind, always on time and stuck to our instructions. She sent daily notifications about the walk ( and pictures) We look forward to hiring her again this Summer. Thanks again!”
“Malcolm is a fantastic dog walker! He's reliable, thoughtful and great with communication. Jiraiya loved him, and the adorable photo updates he sent were such a bonus — he has serious photography skills! He even adjusted a walk time to avoid the rain. Highly recommend 🐾 thank you Malcolm!!”

About: I’ve always felt a special connection with dogs, and my time spent fostering and doing rescue work really taught me how to connect with them on their level. It showed me how much patience and love it takes to make a pup feel truly safe. To turn that passion into a daily routine, I also worked at a doggy daycare, which is just as fun as it sounds! It’s given me amazing experience with every type of dog personality imaginable—from the high-energy goofballs to the quiet ones who just want a buddy to sit with. I know how hard it is to leave your furry best friend, so my goal is always to treat them exactly like family, keeping them safe, happy, and understood. Having recently moved to Ontario, my schedule is completely open and flexible! Because I'm settling into the area, pet care isn't just something I squeeze into my day, it is my daily routine. This open availability means I can completely adapt to your pet's specific clock, whether they need early morning walks, strict mid-day routines, or just a consistent companion throughout the week. When staying in your home, my top priority is keeping your pet's routine exactly the same so they feel safe and stress free. I treat your space with total respect while focusing on personalized care whether that means high energy playtime, long walks, or just quiet companionship. With my background in reading animal body language, I’m always attentive to their comfort levels and safety. Plus, I’ll keep you connected with regular photo updates for total peace of mind!

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was little. I love spending time with my dogs, Jimmy and Dave. Taking them on walks, giving them cuddles, giving them treats, etc. My goal is to make sure all animals have the best quality of life!

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!
About: Hi!! I’m a student, aspiring veterinarian, & when I'm not learning about animals I would love the opportunity to care for animals + gain familiarity with different pet personalities! What every pet owner wants is a reliable & trustworthy individual, that allows the space to feel comfortable in leaving our fur-real friend in safe hands without worry, and as someone whom has pets in my family home I can relate! My background of animals is what I like to call the generational love for animals; As my mother grew up with many pets in her childhood due to my grandma's love for having pets and my maternal genetics didn't skip me to discover my own passion for pet-care. In my neighborhood growing up I flourished with different experiences of pets from puppies & cats to pigs & hedgehogs. learning about pet care while studying at university as a full-time student. Looking forward to implementing taking care of pets in my every day life for more experience. Growing up I used to walk dogs for my local neighbor consistently, this bond building core memory allowed me to research into everything about proper pet care, and was useful to when my family got their own pet kitten (Khato) I now stay with my Aunt during my studies with her dog (Mercy).

“This was the first positive boarding experience our 9yr old golden retriever has ever had (admittedly he usually stays in kennels). Normally, our retriever is stressed and anxious but Maddie clearly has a lot of experience and settled our dog almost immediately. Her home and yard provide the perfect environment whether your dog is active or just prefers to lounge on the couch. Her obedient lab and daschund were great companions. A nearby park and green space/creek provide a convenient off-the-road exercise venue. Maddie walked our dog right at sunrise before it got too hot and gauged his energy level throughout the 3 day stay to ensure he wasn't overworked. She provided frequent updates with photos and clearly he was a very happy dog. Medication was also property administered. I certainly plan to use Maddie's services again and highly recommend her!”
