“Catia was incredibly attentive to my dog while she was boarded. My dog was incredibly well taken care of and had exciting enrichment opportunities (playing with others, trips to the park, time in the backyard, and quality snuggle time indoors). Catia offered a safe and fun home for my dog to board while I was away and sent many updates while I was away. I would absolutely book with Catia again!”
“Naomi and Sam are wonderful! My 90lbs dog spent the Christmas holidays with them. I couldn’t have hoped for a better family for him. They took him in and treated him as part of their family. My dog hang out with their Labrador and their kids. And, from that picture Naomi sent, we can tell that they formed a special bond. My dog even got gifts from Santa ☺️. We thank Naomi and Sam for everything they did for our 🐶.”
“Agnes did an amazing job of taking care of our pup! Our pup came down with intestinal issues the morning we were supposed to drop her off but Agnes was happy to look after her anyway. She made chicken for her to settle her upset stomach and kept a closer eye on her with constant updates to us. I can't say enough how much we appreciate the great care that Agnes provided!”
“We really liked Paige. She came over to meet/greet the dogs before her actual stay. We have 3 dogs and one is very anxious/reactive. I had told this to Paige and she was perfect with her. Staying quiet and giving a very good soft relaxed energy to her. Paige also does Reiki and offered to do some on this dog. When we came home we were surprised that Paige had washed and folded the sheets and towel and the dogs seemed happy and relaxed. Paige stayed in touch with us while we were away and sent pictures, which was very reassuring to know that she arrived on time and was here.”
“Samantha was incredibly hospitable, kind, and accommodating. She made everything easy and comfortable, and I really appreciated her thoughtfulness and flexibility. I’d gladly recommend her to anyone!”
“This was my first experience with getting a professional dog sitter and it was awesome! Jeff went above and beyond any expectations I had about the experience. He shared how my dog was doing and sent adorable pictures and videos. I was a bit weary because my dog is a nervous dog, but Jeff was very confident in his ability to manage my dog and my dog warmed up to him in no time. Jeff is very clearly passionate about caring for dogs in his home. He is also very knowledgeable and attentive to the needs of all kinds of dogs. I highly recommend Jeff for your dog sitting needs.”
“Melanie has been boarding my German shepherd River for several months now, and she’s simply just the BEST! She’s very professional, kind and caring, and accommodating. River is always excited to go there to hang out with her dog Tulo and her kids. It’s a huge load off my mind that he’s being well looked after for both short and long stays. Thanks so much for all you do Melanie!”
“My dogs had a blast with Zaira and her family!!! They spent a lot of time outside enjoying the beautiful we were having over the weekend and she gave them the love and attention they needed. She followed all care instructions to the letter and kept me updated with pictures and messages throughout their stay. Overall 10000/10, will absolutely re-book with Zaira. Mil gracias 💛”

“Sandy and her partner were lovely to communicate & coordinate with and I received regular updates on Shadow’s stay with them. They have a big back yard that is fenced in that my dog loved to explore and a nice deck for him to sun tan on (his fav). Would highly recommend Sandy as a rover sitter!”
“Monique is fantastic. Our girl Pepper was very happy and looked after. We loved the pictures and videos she sent us so we knew our girl was fine. I would highly recommend Monique.”
“Ryan was great with Lilah! Paired her up well with a sweet pug. Then brought her for a big walk, I could certainly tell because of how tired she was when we picked her up. I received so many updates and photos which really relieved us. Thanks Ryan once again for your expertise with dogs and making Lilah so comfortable so we could go discover Niagara!”

“Cassandra was so reliable and went above and beyond taking care of my cat for a week while I was away.

She also sent regular updates with pictures. I will absolutely use her pet sitting services in the future, completely worry free!”

I would love to know any of your pets quirks so I can ensure they are comfortable while getting to know me.
“Paige was great and followed instructions perfectly. Dogs were looked after and there was no mess in the house to worry about while we were on a short vacation. Thanks for the great photos and open line of communication!”
About: I’ve had 3 cats in a single house since the start of highschool until I moved back down here. They were my rambunctious rapscallions and I miss them lots. Two brothers and a sister, various amounts of attention needed but I loved them to bits
“Noor was amazing! Our cats are very shy and usually give us a hard time when meeting new people, so we were nervous about leaving them but Noor was so diligent and loving with them that they warmed up to her quickly. Noor has definitely earned us as loyal customers!”
About: I’ve had cats since I was a child. We started by taking in strays/being gifted barn cats from friends. Living on a farm we saw many litters born, and as I grew older I realized how important fixing them was, so we started getting all the ones around our home fixed/vaccinated/dewormed. I started trapping kittens from friend’s barns and finding rescues to take them, fostering them in the meantime until they were ready to find a home of their own. I’m looking forward to the company of your pet and playing with them/caring for them. Note: we do have dogs in the home but they stay fully separate from the cat room.

“Communication with Max was excellent. He is friendly and professional. During their first meeting, he immediately won my anxious dog over with his calm and gentle energy. It is evident that he has experience with dogs and his love for them shines. I am very satisfied with his services and will not hesitate to be a repeat customer.”
About: Animals have always been a huge part of our lives. We cared for our dog for 12.5 wonderful years, including supporting him through diabetes for the last 1.5 years of his life. Through daily walks, medication routines, and lots of love, we learned how deeply meaningful caring for a dog truly is. After losing him, we miss the joy that dogs bring—walking, cuddling, and the unconditional love they share. Pet sitting allows us to give that love and care back to other families. Daily walks are always included in our fee and we will cater the length to whatever your dog is used to. Walks/Drop in visits: I work a rotating schedule and have many weekdays off. Please message to check availability! We walk nearly every weeknight anyways so we would love to incorporate dogs into our routine. Boarding: we both work full time in the office 4 days a week. Dogs must be able to be left alone in the day on weekdays. Weeknights and weekends we are both home. We would love to spend our evenings and weekends caring for your pets. Whether it’s walks, weekend drop-ins, or overnight stays here at our home, your dog will be treated like family. We are a child-free, pet-free, smoke-free home, offering a calm and stress-free environment. Our property is fully fenced and includes a built-in ramp (see photo), making it ideal for dogs with mobility or stair challenges. My husband and I used to walk our own dog every single day, and he’ll be joining me in caring for the dogs who stay or visit. Between us, your pet will always have someone attentive, gentle, and experienced looking after them. We would be honoured to care for your pet and give them a loving home-away-from-home

We did that for a few years and I was a primary caretaker. There I learned how to care for dogs that may be scared and skiddish. A few years into doing this, we found out now adopted dog of three years. I would regularly visit my parents to care for this dog. I learned everything from potty training to enrichment to feeding routines and caring for their fur. I take pride in the ability to be attentive to each pet’s needs. I regularly visit my parents house where we have our three year old rescue that I take care of when I am there. Additionally, my friend has a cat that I spend time with a few times a week. In my family’s home, I do everything for my family dog when I am there. We regularly go on walks and spend time outdoors. I am attentive to behaviour changes in your pet and approach with care. I respect the clients space and regularly stay in contact with owners to further ensure safety and communication. When I am caring for your animal I will always take your lead on what is best for your furry friend.
About: Nice to meet you! My name is Chelsea, I am a 32-year-old Law Clerk, looking to make some extra money to save for a house! I am very responsible, reliable, trustworthy, and I absolutely LOVE animals! I have volunteered at the SPCA working with a variety of animals, gaining all the experience that comes along with it. DOGS: I am comfortable with any dog type. Big, small, friendly, shy, energetic, lazy- you name it! I can handle any breed, from a Chihuahua to a Great Dane. I can tire out your energetic pooch, or sit down and relax with your fur baby, and make them feel safe and comfortable. My mother also had her own dog walking business, and I thought that with the experience I gained helping her, I could start to help my local friends in the Niagara Region! CATS: I understand that cats need care tailored to their unique personalities - whether that means quiet companionship, playful interaction, or just sticking to their routines. I'm patient and attentive, making sure each cat feels safe and comfortable in their own space. What sets me apart is my ability to read their body language, respect their boundaries and build trust at their pace, so even shy or independent cats feel cared for. I also have two cats of my own, so I understand their quirks and routines! I do work full-time, so I offer pet care part-time during the evening and weekends. This gives me the perfect balance to dedicate focused, quality time to your pets. I make sure each visit, walk or overnight stay fits smoothly into my routine, so your dog or cat gets reliable, consistent care without me being rushed or distracted. ***If you live close by, I can fit in a lunchtime dog walk/feed between 12-1 or 1-2! *** When I care for pets in your home, I treat it with the same respect as my own. I will follow your routines closely to make sure your dog or cat feels safe and comfortable in their familiar environment. Whether its walks, feeding or crate time, I’ll provide reliable, loving care while keeping your home secure.
“Katrina has been an incredible help walking our dog! We had a baby and used Katrina while we figured things out with a newborn. We would absolutely recommend Katrina and would not hesitate to use her again in the future!”
“Trisha, has been great with Murphy. Patient with him. She wasn't deterred from his bad attitude upon first meeting. Now he's a clown with her. She's always on time and communicates with any changes needed. She's also been understanding with a couple short notices to add on walks. We're looking forward to continuing to work with her. Thanks Trisha”
About: I’ve cared for dogs my whole life and love meeting new furry friends. I’m reliable, attentive, and patient, and I always make sure each dog feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for. As a student with a flexible schedule, I am home often and able to provide pets with consistent attention, companionship, walks, playtime, and reliable cares I provide a safe, loving environment with lots of attention, exercise, and playtime. I have a fenced yard and an active lifestyle to keep dogs happy and engaged.
About: I grew up with a beautiful, high-energy golden retriever, taking him for walks and car rides, brushing him, and giving him tons of pets. As someone who loves animals but isn’t in the position to have a pet of my own, I take any opportunity I can to hangout and take care of them. I had the opportunity recently to dog walk a senior dog and pet sit a couple big dogs for a few family friends and loved every minute of it. I took them for walks and potty breaks, fed them, played with them, and made sure to keep them on their normal routine while their owners were away. I am a quick learner who is able to follow instruction very well and ask questions when needed, so if your pet needs any extra care (for example, administering oral medication), I am more than comfortable taking on new tasks. I am currently in between employment and am looking for ways to make some money while I gear up for a master’s program in Scotland this fall. My availability is very flexible (e.g. mornings, afternoons, evenings, week days, and weekends) as my only other commitment is helping my brother with special needs on occasion. I will have plenty of time to give extra care and attention to your pets. I am very respectful, making sure to treat your home and pets as my own and ensuring their safety. For walks, I’ll make sure to use your preferred collar or harness, take the same walking route if that is what your pet prefers, always picking up their poop and putting it in the proper garbage, and making sure the doors/gates are locked before leaving. If your dog doesn’t enjoy interactions with other pets or people, I will make sure to avoid those situations, or if they do, give them plenty of time to socialize. In the home, I will make sure any hazards are put away, food is secured, things are put back where they belong, and make sure off-limit places stay off-limits. I will follow all instructions and send questions your way if I am unsure about anything. Plus, I’ll send photo updates so you know your pet is happy and well when you’re away.

“Catia was incredibly attentive to my dog while she was boarded. My dog was incredibly well taken care of and had exciting enrichment opportunities (playing with others, trips to the park, time in the backyard, and quality snuggle time indoors). Catia offered a safe and fun home for my dog to board while I was away and sent many updates while I was away. I would absolutely book with Catia again!”
“Naomi and Sam are wonderful! My 90lbs dog spent the Christmas holidays with them. I couldn’t have hoped for a better family for him. They took him in and treated him as part of their family. My dog hang out with their Labrador and their kids. And, from that picture Naomi sent, we can tell that they formed a special bond. My dog even got gifts from Santa ☺️. We thank Naomi and Sam for everything they did for our 🐶.”
“Agnes did an amazing job of taking care of our pup! Our pup came down with intestinal issues the morning we were supposed to drop her off but Agnes was happy to look after her anyway. She made chicken for her to settle her upset stomach and kept a closer eye on her with constant updates to us. I can't say enough how much we appreciate the great care that Agnes provided!”
“We really liked Paige. She came over to meet/greet the dogs before her actual stay. We have 3 dogs and one is very anxious/reactive. I had told this to Paige and she was perfect with her. Staying quiet and giving a very good soft relaxed energy to her. Paige also does Reiki and offered to do some on this dog. When we came home we were surprised that Paige had washed and folded the sheets and towel and the dogs seemed happy and relaxed. Paige stayed in touch with us while we were away and sent pictures, which was very reassuring to know that she arrived on time and was here.”
“Samantha was incredibly hospitable, kind, and accommodating. She made everything easy and comfortable, and I really appreciated her thoughtfulness and flexibility. I’d gladly recommend her to anyone!”
“This was my first experience with getting a professional dog sitter and it was awesome! Jeff went above and beyond any expectations I had about the experience. He shared how my dog was doing and sent adorable pictures and videos. I was a bit weary because my dog is a nervous dog, but Jeff was very confident in his ability to manage my dog and my dog warmed up to him in no time. Jeff is very clearly passionate about caring for dogs in his home. He is also very knowledgeable and attentive to the needs of all kinds of dogs. I highly recommend Jeff for your dog sitting needs.”
“Melanie has been boarding my German shepherd River for several months now, and she’s simply just the BEST! She’s very professional, kind and caring, and accommodating.

Thanks so much for all you do Melanie!”

“Meagan took awesome care of our little Mille. Right from the moment we met Meagan and her family we knew Mille would love staying with them. We plan to have Meagan take care of our dog again.”
“Trisha was fantastic. It was Charlie’s first experience going to a sitter and I was a little nervous. Tricia’s house is warm and friendly. She greeted us at the door and engaged with Charlie immediately. He even felt comfortable enough to run through the house to get a toy! What I really appreciated was how Trisha asked about Charlie’s likes/dislikes and routine. She works really hard to ensure everything is as consistent and comfortable as possible. When I picked him up the next day he was happy and energetic. Thank you Trisha for making our first Rover experience an awesome one. We look forward to Charlie’s next sleepover with you.”

About: I’ve had animals my whole life, as for right now I am travelling on and off and therefore cannot have my own furry friend. But in the meantime would love to go on walks and take care of yours! I have plenty of availability when I’m not travelling! When I’m not travelling or volunteering to help youth or other animal programs, I am doing this! When watching the pets taking them out, playing with them, allowing them to eat on time is very important. A healthy balance of everything is what they need!
