About: I have owned and lived with dogs, and cats for the past 10 years. My current dog is high energy and we'll titled. I'm happy to work with puppies, and provide a little anxiety relief to your pets. Looking for someone to take your dog out while your on a long shift, longer walks than your able, or social/training enriched walks, I'm able to help. I grew up on a hobby farm and am more then happy to spend time with ducks, chickens, rabbits etc. I currently work full time from home, if you have wifi I can be there all day. I have a dog as well, he can come for social play dates, or stay home. For longer stay, my furbaby can come along for doggy socialization or I can alternate on a plan that works for both of us. Dogs love routine, keeping to their routine is safest. I practice positive reinforcement for pets. For dogs who pull on walks ii prefer a harness, it's safer for us and them, and have plenty of dual clip leashes to work on heeling with them.

About: I have loved and cared for animals with empathy since I was a child. I was always very drawn to animals, and felt a strong connection with them. Whatever you need, I would be thrilled to meet, and care for your fur babies. I do have a full time job but I've just been off with an injury so im home all day and I have lots of free time to take care of your fur babies. Walks, visits, house drop ins, doggie day care. I would be honored to look after your animals. I have a very large fenced yard, and 2 friendly young dogs for your pup to play with. They are never outside without me monitoring them.

About: Think of this as a boutique, in-home pet boarding retreat — not a kennel. With 30+ years of hands-on experience raising, hosting, and loving just about every creature imaginable — cats, dogs, fowl, rabbits, rodents, and even tortoises (yes, really) — your pet will be in wildly capable hands. Puppies who need gentle training? Seniors who need extra patience and TLC? Shy pets, quirky pets, “my pet is kind of weird” pets? I’ve met them all and adore them deeply. Our home is designed for calm, gentle pet care, nestled on a peaceful 100-acre forest property (freija.ca), which means plenty of fresh air, enrichment, and stress-free vibes. No kids, no chaos — just a quiet, loving environment where animals can actually relax. My husband and I both work from home, so your pet is never left wondering where the humans went. Someone is always around for companionship, playtime, belly rubs, or just existing together (a highly underrated skill). And then there’s Honey, our resident adventure cat and official Welcome Committee. He absolutely loves meeting visiting pets and brings big “friendly camp counsellor” energy to every introduction. If you’re looking for a sitter who treats your pet like family, understands animals on a deep level, and can handle everything from puppy zoomies to senior snoozes — you just found your place. 🐾💚 My husband and I both work from home, which means your pet gets constant supervision, companionship, and engagement — ideal for puppies needing routine, senior dogs who require extra care, and pets who don’t do well being left alone. There are no children in the home, just experienced adults who speak fluent “animal.” Our home is set up specifically for gentle, low-stress pet sitting, tucked away on a quiet 100-acre forest property (freija.ca). It’s perfect for dogs who love sniffing adventures, cats who enjoy calm observation posts, and pets who thrive in a peaceful environment. No crates by default, no overcrowding, and absolutely no chaos. If you’re looking for reliable, experienced, in-home pet boarding where your pet is treated like family (and maybe a little spoiled), you’ve found it. Your pet brings the personality — we’ve already got the love, patience, and forest vibes covered.

“Our dogs had a wonderful time with Rachel and Robert! We felt confident leaving them for the day after seeing the property and discussing their rescue work with other animals. They kept us updated on how the pups were doing and made sure our senior girl with a back problem didn’t take the stairs. Highly recommend and will certainly use again if we are in the area!”

“Agnes & Donald took care of Luma for two days during our stay in Bruce Peninsula area . Luma is a very high energy dog and demands lots of attention and exercise. She had so much fun during her stay and she was really calm at the end of the day. We could enjoy our trip with peace of mind knowing she was in safe hands. Thanks so much Agnes & Donald for everything! Agnes & Donald are really nice prople! Highly recommended.”

About: I have been looking after animals for more than 20 years. I am an incredibly compassionate guardian, who feels very connected to all animals since I was little. I currently do not have any pets, so I would be honored to support you and taking care of your loved one. I run my own online business from home in pockets of time. Which means I have flexibility to cater to your pet's needs when needed. I have a vehicle, and access to amazing walking trails on and off leash. I have created a safe and fun environment for pets from my home. And I assure that the pet owners wishes and schedule is being fully honored during the time of care.

About: Animals have always been a big part of my life and now that I'm retired I have extra time and love to share. I back onto a green belt and have a large back yard. I have a large outdoor dog run. I don't have a fenced yard but that's ok cuz your dog will never be alone if in my care. I'm strong & healthy and I love to walk. I have experience with large breeds (German Shepard, Mastiff, Leonburger). I can't wait to make friends with your furry baby. I have a health care degree and my basic knowledge carries over to make me comfortable in an emergency. All of my dogs over the years were trained with all the basics...heel, stay, come, sit, down, quiet, etc. I think it's good for any dog to know who's in control so long as it's done with kindness. I'm retired and ready for whatever life throws at me. I'm up for 3 hour long walks per day if my companion is. My aim is to be flexible. My home is my visiting pets home. The house is clean and sanitized between visitors. There isn't anything harmful left out that a pet could get into. While in my care the visiting pet has all my attention.

“Ashley was so great with my dog Cas! I had a late cancellation and needed a sitter fast! Ashley replied right away! she kept me updated on my dog while he was in her care, which was a huge relief to me. I’ve never left my dog with anyone but family before and I felt completely comfortable knowing my dog will be with her and her furry babies all day! I completely recommend her as your fur baby’s sitter. If you’re looking for kind, knowledgeable and a supportive caretaker and friend for your furry family member than look no further than this Great gal!”

Cassidy was very friendly and professional, and Gizmo appeared to have enjoyed his day there - he came home a happy boy. Cassidy’s home and yard seemed well set up for dogs, and her little dogs were very sweet with Gizmo. Would definitely use Cassidy’s services again should the need arise :).
