“After a really nice meet & greet we felt very comfortable leaving our fur baby with Sheilagh & Teresa. We weren't disappointed. Sheilagh sent update pics several times a day, and it looks like he had a blast! You just can't fake his 'happy face', and he had it a plenty. Would definitely recommend, and we'll definitely book with them again!”


“I just love this couple They are the dynamic duo for dog care. They absolutely love what they do and it shows. My standard poodle Archie has been cared for by Bryan and Raisa many times now and he loves them. You can always rest assured that your fur baby is very well cared for and is having fun. Hi five doggy paws to them. Thanks for being so awesome. Kim”


“Gretel was amazing to work with. Her response time was immediate. She was super accommodating and took care of our little guy. Sent us pictures and videos of him playing and enjoying his time with his new friends. Already rebooked her for Max's next stay and will continue to do so.”


“Loghan was a great sitter for my puppy, he was kind and attentive, easy to reach and sent me tons of pictures and updates. It was my first time away from my pup and I felt really reassured with this stay. The location was also really nice. All in all I would definitely book with him again :-)”


“Maggie and her family are terrific with my small dog Abby. Abby is overjoyed to go to Maggie's house, a sure sign that things go well for her there -- and apparently she doesn't miss us much, so I know she's well treated. Maggie keeps us up to date with pictures too, which I appreciate.”


“Brooke was absolutely amazing with my dog! From the moment they met, I could tell she genuinely cared and knew how to handle dogs with love and confidence. She kept me updated with photos and little notes that gave me total peace of mind while I was away. My dog came back happy, relaxed, and clearly well taken care of. I’d trust Brooke again in a heartbeat—highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and kind pet sitter!”


“Vanessa is very kind and professional. She took excellent care of Patch (he even went to the dog park)! and kept us up to date with photos and video. Highly recommended! :)”


About: I’ve grown up around animals my whole life and they are my world. I have a deep empathy for animal and caring for and loving them truly brings me happiness. I started caring for animals (cats & dogs) as a little girl, for friends and family. I have a bounty of experience with cats, and am also confident in caring for dogs! We have 3 cats, and a dog (Jindo-Samoyed mix who wants to be friends with every cat & dog) in our home! My husband is also experienced caring for animals, and is a pro at medication administration. I currently work full-time as an administrative assistant. I work 8:30-4:30 daily, with an hour long lunch from 12-1 where I am available to go home if needed. I live less than 5 minutes from my office. My husband works less than a minute from home, and is able to go home at any point during the day. I have a fenced in backyard and a very friendly Jindo-Samoyed mix and three cats who will keep your furbabies company! We have an extra bedroom for boarding if your pet needs their own space, away from our pets, that’s fine! We do not have any children in our home, it is just my husband, our furbabies, and myself!

About: I’ve been caring and keeping dogs company since I was 17. Family, friends and neighbors have trusted me to feed, walk and provide loving companionship for their pups. I’m a totally dog person-can’t imagine the world without them! I’m currently self employed and mostly work from home, giving me plenty of flexible time to care for your pets. I’m fully available on both weekdays and weekends from 8am to 9pm. I live in a house with a patio and unfenced yard, offering plenty of space both indoors and outdoors. We’re just a 10-minutes walk from Peterborough off-leash dog park, perfect for adding some extra fun and adventure to your puppy’s day!

“David and Joanne were so welcoming of our Bella girl! We are new to Rover and they made the experience very smooth and we were confident Bella would be well taken care of. Their 2 family dogs were great too. We got update photos and messages and felt very at ease knowing Bella was being treated as part of the family! We will absolutely take Bella back in the future!”


“I was SO nervous to leave my cat with someone other then someone he already knew, but my apartment is being treated for bugs so there was no choice. Vaishnavi was SO helpful when it came to putting me at ease, she was professional, curious, prompt and most importantly she cared for my kitty wonderfully! I will definitely be calling on Vaishnavi again if I ever need someone to care for my cat again!”


“First time using Rover. Felt very confident in having Akash look after Bailee. Before the stay there was lots of pre communication and a quick visit (our dog tends to be skittish so a pre visit tends to help) and Akash was quite accommodating. During her stay Akash provided updates and photos. These were quite reassuring When Bailee was picked up, she was excited to see me and cuddled. She did not seem nervous and trying to get out to leave. This tells me that she was well looked after and comfortable in Akash's home. I would definitely use Akash again in the future.”


“Frankie had a great time! Michelle took excellent care of our furbaby , allowing us to have a stress free holiday. We will definitely be asking Michelle to watch her again. Thanks again Michelle!!”


“Pat and Cathy are absolutely fantastic. Our dog Mackie felt very much at home and they made him and us feel very comfortable in knowing that Mackie was in very good hands. They treated Mackie like their own and I could tell when we picked him up he was very happy there. Their dog Bailey and our Mackie got along so well it was like they are brothers. We will definitely use them again”


“Shae was so good and affectionate with Penny. Penny seemed to have the best time of her life with Shae. Shae gave me updates and pictures so I knew how my Penny was doing. When I picked her up, she was sooo exhausted from the walk, which I loved it since Penny usually has a lot of energy, and the rain season has been gloomy. But Shae did her best enjoying the day with my baby girl. Definitely recommend Shae for your fur babies!”


About: My family has had dogs since I was born, so I have always lived in a pet environment. Now I have two dogs and they are a lovely couple. I have experience training puppies so I would love to play with puppies<1 year. I have Sunday and Monday off, and I’m free to stay with them all day long. You could also PM me to check my available time with other four days. I have two friendly dogs. A railing and crate can keep my dogs in the bedroom if your baby need some separate space. Normally, your baby will have snack time with my dogs unless you have some special needs.

About: I’ve spent a lot of time around dogs of all ages and personalities, from puppies to seniors! I’ve also had my own dog who recently passed, so I understand how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone else. I genuinely enjoy being around animals and treat every dog like they’re my own. I'm a graduate student which allows me to work from home, so your dog will have plenty of attention and company throughout the day. I also have experience with behaviourally reactive dogs and know how important patience and understanding are. Whether your dog is nervous, has specific triggers, or just prefers their space, I’m happy to follow your lead and support them in a way that works for you and them. I’m always mindful of routines, boundaries, and whatever makes your dog feel safe and comfortable. Every dog is different, so my priority is helping your dog feel safe and happy while you’re away! As I’m a graduate student who works from home most days, I’m able to provide consistent care and attention throughout the day. I can take regular breaks to walk, play with, or just hang out with your dog. My flexible schedule means I can easily adjust to your dog’s routine, such as extra potty breaks, medication at specific times, or just some quiet downtime. I have a partially fenced backyard where I can take your dog for quick potty breaks. I’m also lucky to live near some great spots for walks and playtime, including the Parkway Trail right behind my house and Jackson Creek Park. I’m happy to take your dog out for anywhere from 1 to 4 walks a day, or just bring them to a safe spot to run and play.

About: I have taken care of dogs my entire life and had multiple dogs as pets at once since a child. I have now had two dogs from puppy stage. I currently have a dog that is over 2 years old. I also took care of multiple sled dogs for many years. Daily I walk my dog four times a day. I work a hybrid job and am able to come home on my lunch and sometimes more then that a day. I have one dog to keep your dog entertained I also have a crate if need be. My dog currently is loose at all times. I live in a apartment and take my dog out for walks multiple times a day.

“Thank you so much to Jessica, Raja, and Koda for taking Cooper into your home and looking after him while my son and I were away. It was hard to leave him for a week, but the updates and pictures/videos (at least once daily) made it a little bit easier. We were reassured that he was happy, adjusting well, and was actually making himself quite at home with all of you... and that you were treating him as part of your family! You were very professional and accommodating in all interactions and asked questions so that you could provide the best possible care for Cooper. We really appreciate all that you did and would highly recommend your dog sitting services! Thank you again so much!”


“Huck had a great time helping Roxanne with gardening! He was able to run around the large farm property with his new friend Kiki. Huck came home feeling happy and tired from playing. Thanks Roxanne and Kiki!”

HUA F.
“Rowena is an absolute dog person, and we've been friends for more than seven years. I got a Corgi named Bukui in the summer of 2020, and she has helped take care of him since he was just one month old, especially when I was on overnight duty or busy during the weekdays. She is incredibly gentle and loving, not only with her own dog but with Bukui as well. She’s always patient and gives me timely updates when I’m missing my boy.”

Leah H.
“To Whom It May Concern, I am writing to wholeheartedly recommend my sister, Leah, for her outstanding dedication to pet care. She has always had a natural connection with animals, and her experience, reliability, and genuine love for pets make her truly exceptional in this field. Not only has she cared for countless animals over the years, but she also owned and lovingly raised her own dog, Dallas . She was a devoted and responsible owner, always attentive to her dog’s needs — from training and nutrition to regular exercise and vet visits. Her home was a safe, warm, and happy environment where her dog thrived. Whether she’s looking after her own pets or caring for others’, she treats every animal with the same level of respect and affection. She is patient, trustworthy, and has a calm and comforting presence that animals instantly respond to. If you're seeking someone who truly treats pets like family, Leah, is that person. I can say with complete confidence that any pet in her care will be in excellent, loving hands. Sincerely, Katie Howitt”


Kerri M.

Michelle was awesome with our dog. She was very attentive to her needs and our dog warmed up really quickly to her. Michelle also has a dog of her own which was great for ours as they seemed to keep each other busy. Each day Michelle provided an update on our dog and provided pics and videos. Highly recommend her, she's a natural with animals.

Great experience for our fur baby. Gretel is an excellent care giver. We will certainly return with confidence!

Brooke was great! My girls seemed to love her and came back home very happy. Brooke kept us well updated with pictures etc. Would definitely use her again!

Our Sadie had a great time at Sheilagh and Teresa's! We were sent lots of pictures which was really nice. We would book with Sheilagh and Teresa again. Sadie came home a happy dog!

Shae was so good and affectionate with Penny. Penny seemed to have the best time of her life with Shae. Shae gave me updates and pictures so I knew how my Penny was doing. When I picked her up, she was sooo exhausted from the walk, which I loved it since Penny usually has a lot of energy, and the rain season has been gloomy.

Genna was absolute perfection. She watched my 90lbs dog while I was away for a week, and WOW. He could not have been happier! She sent me daily updates and ensured he was in the best care. He was so happy with her and her family. She is the absolute best!!

Thanks again to Jessica, Raja, and Koda for welcoming Cooper into your home and taking such good care of him. It was only an overnight stay this time, but we still appreciated the excellent communication and the updates. It was easy to see that Cooper felt relaxed and comfortable and we would not hesitate to leave him in your care again.

Absolutely wonderful experience. Took such great care of our two dogs and provided great updates and photos. Thank you so so so much!!!!

Aashtha was amazing with caring for Jax while I was away. She treats Jax like he's part of the family and it was clear from all the photo and video updates that he was having the best time with her. I'd highly recommend Aashtha to anyone looking for someone they can trust their family pets with

Dane is excellent! Loves our dog like his own, and always sending us pictures - couldn’t ask for a better sitter for our dog! Thanks Dane!

It was the first puppy care we took our dog to. We had the best experience! We highly recommend Askash to anyone. We needed a place in an emergency and we stood upon Akash profile. So grateful that we did. Also, he was very careful. He sent us pictures and updates all day. Our dog was in good hands. Thank you again

Asgiga and her partner were great with Jax. I loved the updates and pictures. We were very nervous because Jax has only spent overnighters with his Gramma! They have a lot of sensory toys that they provide for the dogs and are very involved which is great to see.
