“Our Millie had a terrific time with Vickie and her family! She was well cared for. Vickie was easy to communicate with and was excellent at keeping us up to date on Millie’s visit. Highly recommend!”


“LOOK NO FURTHER! What a relief to have found Graham and Freddie! From initial contact, Graham was professional, prompt, flexible, and caring. He simply thought of everything, and was so patient and reassuring when I had a load of questions and concerns. Freddie is a cool companion! We left Bruno for the whole weekend, and I was astounded at how confided felt that he was just fine. Graham sent periodic photos, and I could tell on Bruno’s face that he was comfortable. (You know how you can see the stress in their eyebrows - he was simply smiling the whole time!) Upon pick up, Bruno was relaxed and balanced. He even swung back around to seemingly say thanks and goodbye to Graham before hopping into the car! We’re very grateful to Graham’s above and beyond care, and wish he were closer. We’ll definitely be seeking his service when we visit the Lindsay area next!”


About: I believe that consistency, patience, and my genuine love for dogs and animals ensures that each pet feels safe, understood, and cared for like family! I work from home with a flexible schedule that lets me give pets consistent attention, playtime, and care throughout the day, just like they’d get at home! I have a fenced in yard, and two of my own pups who would love to keep your dog company! I like incorporating your routines and rules to ensure a seamless transition for their visit/stay.

“We were very happy with the service provided by Marie. It was over and above what we expected. Our dog stressed her self out however this was well managed. When we arrived to pick her up she was obviously comfortable and happy. When we got home it was obvious she got lots of exercise since she was tired and content. We will definitely entrust Marie with our dog again. It was comforting to get a daily report and pictures of how she was doing.”


“Janine was caring and attentive of our dog Akiiki. We felt very comfortable leaving Akiiki in her care and we received regular photos and updates of our dog during her stay which we enjoyed.”


About: Hey there Dog and Cat parents, My name is Kylie and I love animals! I've more than six years of experience working with dogs, cats, and other animals; they are my passion. I've as well completed a Medical Veterinary Assistant College Corse, with a placement at a Vet Clinic. I work partl-time at our local pet store, Trent Pets Lindsay, and previously part-time at Cavan Hill Veterinary Services. I have three cats, Miles, Momo, and Mable. My Netherlands bunny Moon and two Chinchillas, Milly and Chuck. My pets are my babies and they get all the love, and respect they deserve. I love taking care of all pets. They make me happy and my goal is to help others with their babies. My work schedule is very flexible, I have receive plenty of notice for when im available and I'm willing to take on same-day notice clients! I do have a large backyard, but it's not fully fenced-in. There many parks and trails close by. I have a large crate if your pet is crate trained. Or feel free to bring yours if necessary. I have extra dishes, and plenty of toys.

“Patricia was amazing with our dogs. I was very hesitant and nervous about leaving them. She was extremely understanding and reassured us with daily updates to how they were and sending photos & videos. She took exceptional care of our pups and with great attention to detail. I would definitely recommend her!”


“Jessica took such great care of Molly! As an overprotective pet parent, it was so hard for me to leave my dog - but Jessica made sure to update me and send photos so I knew that Molly was in good hands! Her dog Snow is great too - very playful, but respectful of space if the other dog does not want to play. With a large outdoor run and spacious home, Molly definitely got her exercise. She’s so tuckered out and happy, and I am too! Thanks for taking care of my precious pup, Jessica!”


“Nikki was a wonderful find on this app, I've had some bad experiences with animal sitters in the past. She was prompt with her communication when I was asking all my initial questions before booking her. She has a wonderful energy and you can tell she truly loves animals. Her house was clean and well suited to taking care of multiple animals. The amount of supplies and variety of foods and treats she has for the animals was also impressive. When picking up my usally grumpy guy, he seemed right at home with Nikki. During my animals stay, Nikki was quick to reach out and ask how to deal with my skittish guy in the best way instead of making him uncomfortable. I really appreciate the work she put into taking care of my animal, even for such a short stay. Thank you Nikki, I'll be sure to book again if any of my animals need sitting!”


“Lisa was great She gave our Mackie a warm family atmosphere in her home and her dog and ours got along so feel it was like they were related. I have a feeling she spoiled him during his stay. She sent us pictures that prove this. Thanks Lisa and I would highly recommend her”


About: I’ve owned many dogs and various pets. I occasionally pick up dogs from various locations for breeders. Care for them short term. My pets are mostly adopted because the need is so great. I work from home. I’m always there to see to their needs. I believe in giving the pets I watch the care they get at home. Example if a dog is used to sleeping in a crate, they will in my home. If they're used to sleeping in a bed, then the bed it is. Lol I work from home. Always close by to see to their needs and supervise. Let them out for pee breaks and exercise. Open door policy, lol I live in a house on a large property. Clutter free, with a Fenced yard. I’m the only one at home, offering a calm stress free environment.

“Brianna took very good care of my 20 month old male Siberian husky. Wouldn't hesitate to use her services in the future.”


“First time boarding experience for my baby boy cooper - and by the looks of the pictures I got back he had an absolute blast! I was so nervous he was going to struggle with the drop off but Kaitlin and her boyfriend made him feel right at home. I was so impressed with the amount of photos I received knowing my baby was in good hands. Thank you so much Kaitlin!!!”


About: I have had dogs, and cats, in my life, my entire life and I wouldn't want it any other way! Recently, I lost my beloved dog and now, dedicate myself to helping other fur babies of friends, family and Rover clients. After a long career in education, I am happily retired and available full-time to care for your fur babies.I have many years of experience working with Labrador Retrievers, mixed breeds, Golden Retrievers and Doodles. My fenced yard offers a great space for your pet to chase balls, sun bathe, and play in the puppy pool. I typically care for 1 pet at a time to offer the attention and care your fur baby deserves. I know what it takes to care for a senior dog, help him make his way through his golden years, and also, what a young, energetic pup needs in order to be happy...I have lived with both and it has been fun meeting the needs of two very different dogs. I believe in patience, rewards, but also in having solid expectations for our canine friends. Of course, exercise and playtime, along with cuddles and pets make for a happy dog. I am a retired teacher/administrator, so when I am booked, rest assured that my priority is taking good care of your pets, I have a fenced in backyard in the North Ward and there are plenty of toys at my house, along with great neighbourhood walks to be had and a cute park around the corner for plenty of sniffing! My backyard is fenced so your dog will enjoy plenty of outside playtime in good weather. My home is dog friendly, complete with dog beds, blankets and plenty of toys. We will also go on walks if approved by you and a lovely park, with shade, is one block away from my house.

I would love to help keep your pet active and offer great company so your pet isn’t alone for overnight stays well you are away. I look forward to meeting your pet! 😊 I currently work for a dog walking /pet sitting company in Peterborough / self employed as well with a successful embroidery business so my schedule is very flexible and would love to take on new clients. I am always on the move walking dogs and feeding / cat sits. I will make sure your dogs will have a pawsome time! If needed I can provide meal time, outdoor play time, walks and overnight stays. I can provide lots of activity as I enjoy walking during my everyday routine or simply let them play in the back yard if preferred.

“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”
