House Sitting Petrolia

About: I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes and temperaments for over 20 years — from high-energy puppies to gentle seniors. Friends, family, and neighbors have always trusted me to walk, feed, bathe, and love their pets like my own. I’m patient, attentive, and always focused on keeping tails wagging and pet parents worry-free. I’m a shift worker, which means I have several weekdays off and can dedicate plenty of time to caring for your pets. I come from an animal-loving family, your pets will always receive reliable attention and genuine care. I prefer to care for your pets in the comfort of their own home, where they feel most relaxed and secure, as I have pets of our own. Whether it’s walking dogs, feeding, cleaning up, letting them in or out, snuggling, or playtime — I'm happy to do whatever your pet needs to feel loved and cared for while you’re away.

My kindness and attention allow me to assist pet owners in ensuring the well-being of their furry companions. With over 7 years of experience in caring for dogs and cats, I have gained valuable insights into their behavior, grooming, and nutritional needs. I am adept at meeting various requirements and enjoy documenting their stay with photos and videos, providing peace of mind and fostering open communication with pet owners. I am currently at home. That is to say, I have a lot of time available to care for and attend to your cat or dog child. You can count on my service every day, including weekends. I live in a safe and reliable apartment... where your pet can feel at home... I will always be attentive to him and his needs... I have no problem sleeping together if necessary since I understand that many of them are used to sleeping with their owners.

About: I have experience looking after dogs with a disability (blind, diabetic, etc) and all ages. As well, I have a dog of my owe, a miniature dachshund, who has severe food restrictions. I am very capable of ensuring certain diets or plans are met with each dog. Services are tailored to each owner’s individual requirements. Upon agreement, we will establish a schedule that best suits both the owner and their dog, whether that includes daily check-ins, extended visits, or overnight stays. I am flexible and committed to providing reliable, attentive, and accommodating care. Please note that, in addition to dog sitting, I work full-time in a hybrid role. While I will always do my best to work from the owner’s home whenever possible, there may be occasions where this cannot be guaranteed. I appreciate your understanding and will communicate openly to ensure expectations are clear and care arrangements remain seamless. I provide attentive, responsible, and personalized care based on each pet’s individual needs and the owner’s preferences. My priority is always the pet’s comfort, safety, and routine. I begin by reviewing all care instructions in detail, including feeding schedules, dietary restrictions, medications, exercise needs, and any medical or behavioral considerations. I follow these guidelines closely to maintain consistency and reduce stress for the pet. In a client’s home, I ensure your pet remains in a familiar environment while receiving regular feeding, fresh water, walks, playtime, companionship, and any required medication. I keep the home clean and secure, and provide updates so owners feel confident and informed.

“Amazing experience, she is so professional and kind. She arrived early to go over notes, super attentive and articulate during the meet and greet and Posto was happy and tired afterwards.”

About: I’ve been around dogs and cats for most of my life and started taking full responsibility for my own pets as a teenager. As a teenager, I also worked at a dog kennel, gaining hands-on experience caring for dogs of different temperaments and needs. I’ve continued to care for my own dogs and cats as an adult, which has deepened my love, patience, and understanding of animals. I began professional pet sitting last year, gaining experience following routines, giving medication, and paying close attention to each pet’s unique personality and needs. Pet care fits comfortably into my daily and weekly routine, as I have flexible availability. I’m happy to adjust to your pet’s needs . I can travel within Chatham and nearby towns. I prioritize safety, comfort, and trust when caring for pets. I’m attentive to each pet’s individual needs and routines, whether it’s feeding schedules, medication, or playtime. I pay close attention to behaviors, respecting when pets want cuddles, attention, or space. I’ve cared for my own dogs and cats throughout their lives, including helping with births, and have experience following directions for pets in others’ homes. My goal is always to create a calm, safe, and loving environment for every pet.

About: Hello! My name is Mike and I've been fostering dogs since 2019. I've had approximately 18 come and go, only foster "failing" (foster dogs who I ended up keeping) with two who stayed and had the best golden years. I lost my most recent boy in August, a blind Bichon, just shy of his 12th birthday and after 3 great years. He was type-1 diabetic and blind, and after so much time as a foster getting his insulin regulated, he decided I was his forever family. He had a sister when I got him, a senior Yorkie with diabetes insipidus and a host of health issues. All that is to say I'm a professional at insulin, rigid medication schedules and diet maintenance. Presently I have no dogs of my own. When it comes to your dog, I'll keep your daily routine and walk schedules too, so your pups stay is as minimally disruptive to their normal routine as possible. I've fostered dogs of many breeds from Chihuahuas and a Rat Terrier to a Golden Retriever and Saint Bernard. I've had as many as 4 dogs at once so I'm open to having multiple pups at once. I'll never accept dogs from multiple families unless both families are booking together and the dogs are socialized with each other already. And I'll never cancel a confirmed stay for a more lucrative multi-dog request. I live alone in a detached house in Wallaceburg, and I work from home so your dog won't be left alone aside from short errands. I'm not big on crating dogs, leaving them free to be where they like while I'm gone. I have a den with glass door if you tell me they need smaller quarters, or you can bring your crate for me to use. I have a large fenced yard for playing fetch or dogs who need to run. This is a total dog house. I bought it due to its flat land and not having stairs, and I built a ramp down to the yard. I installed a dog door but it will stay blocked unless having access is suitable for your pups. Dogs are welcome on the couch and the bed, and will have free roam of the house (there's no basement, and garage isn't accessible). House sitting radius: the Rover app limits a 100km radius when setting the territory I can offer the services. I've got my radius set Eastward to circle Toronto, as I grew up there and love an opportunity to take gigs that get me into the city. Unfortunately I can't draw a circle that includes Windsor, but I'm happy to take gigs there too. If you're in London, Kitchener-Waterloo, Cambridge, Brantford, or the GTA, and you have a dog that can be left alone for 2-3hrs max, I may be willing to offer discounts on price so I can catch up with family and friends in those areas while I'm there. If you have any questions or you'd like to arrange a tour or meet and greet, don't hesitate to reach out. I work fulltime hours from home, typical office hours. I'm usually awake by 7am and bed by midnight. I don't have many friends in town so I'm home most of the time. My yard is fully fenced. I have a couple Tile tracking tags that I can attach to their collar if they're an escape artist (or you'd like to track your pups location remotely). Hazardous items like cleaning products are kept in cupboards or in my detached garage. My house is pretty dog proofed and I'm not concerned if your pup has an accident. That's what mops and upholstery cleaners are for. I think I've developed pretty good dog body language, and only correct misbehaviour by command and redirection. I'm a bit of a sucker that let's them get carried away when they're being silly, but particularly with bigger dogs I'll make sure their training is maintained (no jumping up to greet, making sure they don't assert dominance etc.)

“Lisa was incredible. She cared for my four dogs as if they were her own — attentive, warm, and genuinely invested in their well-being. She kept me updated with thoughtful messages and photos throughout my trip, giving me complete peace of mind. Though walking them wasn’t expected, she went above and beyond to make sure they were happy and active. Lisa is truly reliable, compassionate, and trustworthy — I wouldn’t hesitate to have her back.”
