“So happy to have found Shawneen! Our puppy adores her and loves playing with her big playful dog Sammy. Quick communication, flexible and kind to work with. Definitely recommend”


“Amy took great care of my senior dog during a doggy care session. She was great at communication and provided updates while he was staying with her. I could tell my dog was very well looked after. I would fully recommend Amy to anyone looking for services on Rover.”


“Marcy was very responsive to messages before and during Maples stay. Marcy sent a lot of videos and photos reassuring us that Maple was enjoying her stay. We would definitely book again”


“I cannot day enough good things about Lindsey. She took amazing care of my little guy. Panda came back exhausted and clearly had a great day. I received bunch of updates and pictures throughout the day . 5 ⭐️”


“Arantxa did an awesome job taking care of our reactive pup Raja! She and her partner were very patient during our meet and greet as Raja has very specific care needs. She was also patient when introducing her dog Chopper to Raja to ensure they got along prior to making the booking. Arantxa took pictures of Raja’s stay and was also very good at communicating with us. We will definitely be rebooking with her and her family.”


“Kelly and Natalie were exceptional.... I'm sure most people would have given me the eye roll as I spilled out the details of how Lukas does this and how to do that with Lukas.... like a new mom leaving her baby for the first time... but Kelly and Natalie patiently listened and paid close attention.... I left feeling absolutely confident that Lukas was in good hands!! To top it all off.... he had an AMAZING time and came home happy and tired from playing with his new best friends. He loved going on his big outdoor adventure walk.... and I loved getting the pictures and video. I would highly highly recommend Kelly and Natalie. They are officially our go to when Lukas needs daycare! I can't say enough about how happy I was. Thank you!!”


“Mavis had a good time! We got updates throughout the day, which made me happy. From the moment I walked in the house, I knew I was leaving my dog with people who love animals and I felt like she really cared. Highly recommend!”


“We are very happy with Callie's time with Susan and Robin. Callie was happy and relaxed when we picked her up. We definitely appreciate their care of Callie and highly recommend them.”


“Loki absolutely loves his walks with you and it is a great help for me right now. I think he had found a real friend and I am happy that you know the stubborn little Scotties well:)”


“Our dog has intense separation anxiety and struggles with new environments. Kennels have been a terrible option for her, so we tried Rover when we had to do one day of daycare and found Andrea. The property is peaceful and there is heaps of space for our pup to run and explore. There was another dog being boarded; he was sweet and became a racing partner for our pup after we all took a 20 min walk together. We received a bunch of pics throughout the day of our pup watching hummingbirds, napping, and hanging out with the other dogs. We have total peace about leaving our pup for a longer stay when we need it.”



About: My partner and I have over 10 years of combined experience with small and large dogs. From daily walks, to overnight stays, we'll ensure your pet feels safe, loved, and comfortable while you're away. We treat every dog like their our own —with patience, kindness, and lots of tail wags. My partner works from home and I work on site. One of us is always home and if we ever leave we would more than likely bring your pet with us. We're home-bodies so we prefer the comfort of staying home than going out. We have a pet-friendly apartment with a backyard and plenty of green space surrounding us. We would stick to whichever routine is provided for us and love taking pets on walks around the neighbourhood.

“Doug and Janice are absolutely wonderful. Rocky really enjoyed his stay and we will definitely be back again. Thank you so much for being such kind, caring people! It gives us great comfort to know that he is in loving hands.”


About: As a dog parent myself, I know how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone. I’ve cared for dogs of all ages and sizes and can help with walks, feeding, meds, and play. I treat every pup like my own—with love, patience, and lots of attention. Im currently working remotely so have plenty of time and flexibility to care for your pup! I have a black lab that loves to play and is always looking for a new buddy. I live close to a fenced dog park and lots of dog friendly walking trails. I have a dog of my own so I know how scary it can be to leave your fur baby but in my care they will have a furry friend as well as me.

“Very friendly couple and their dog is friendly, too. They’re conscientious and caring; we just needed day-care for us to do an outing to a gulf island, but we wouldn’t hesitate to book for a longer stay, if needed.”


“While traveling by boat, we were so happy to find a safe and fun place for our Poppi to visit while we were at the amazing Tigh-Na-Mara Spa for a few hours. Alexia had a perfect large yard and several other dogs that loved playing with our Poppi. When we picked her up she was happy and obviously had played all day. It was like having a play date for her.”


About: I've always had pets in my life since the day I was born. I seem to be the go to person when someone needs pet care. I'd just never thought of it as a means of income! I recently got laid off and decided to find a new venture doing what I love, being around animal companions day/night. We recently lost our fur baby and don't want to commit to another lifelong companion until I retire. So, this would be a win-win. Update: We recently adopted a cat as the alternative option for her was untenable. She gets along well with dogs. I have a fully fenced yard and there are no restrictions to where the pet can go in the house, they can have complete run of the house. If owner permits their pet to go on their couch I am fine with that in mine. Will verify rules with owner.

“Our French bulldog, Parker, spent a few hours with Adam yesterday. In that short time, we were happy to be updated twice with texts and pics about Parker’s stay. Parker’s falling asleep just a short distance from Adam’s after we picked him up, was a good indication to us that he had a playful and busy time during his stay. We would not hesitate to have Parker stay with Adam again in the future.”


“I knew Woody would be in good hands the minute a saw Antonia and Jordon. You can see in their eyes that they love dogs. It definitely gave me piece of mind for my coming longer trip. When i picked up Woody, he looked tired from lots of playtime and emotions. Thank you very much.”
