“Alexa and Andrew are so amazing! We cannot say enough good things about our dog sitters. They are incredibly patient, kind, and genuinely care about our dog. Their communication is outstanding—they send frequent updates and so many photos, which gives us total peace of mind. It’s clear how attentive and thoughtful they are, and we trust them completely with our dog. We feel so lucky to have found them and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to anyone looking for reliable, loving care.”

“Danya was awesome! I left her with 4 cats, one was in surgical recovery. All of them are usually very nervous but not with Danya. Danya's updates were in great detail, well written and with endless pictures. She took the time to get to know my cats. Each one was described to the T. When I got home, my cats were as if I never left. I couldn't have asked for a better experience for my cats as well as myself. I strongly recommend Danya.”

About: My dog is a rescue. He suffers from pretty bad separation anxiety, so keeping him comfortable when he’s alone is quite tricky. Over the last 4 years with him, I’ve been managing this and have finally found some and routines and tricks that keep him calm and comfortable in our home while I’m away. I have had a dog my whole life. I understand the basics of care, and will go above and beyond to make sure your dog is well taken care of, comfortable, and safe while you are away. I currently work from home 2 days out of the week and will be available to play with your pup through out the day - whether you bring them to me for a day of day care, or you need someone to go check on your dog at yours for a walk or a pee break! Additionally, I am available evenings and weekends for dog walking or babysitting. I live in a townhouse with my senior dog. He loves company. Once the excitement of “hello” passes he is very calm, and will love playing with a friend! I don’t have a backyard, so I will take the pups on frequent walks. If you need someone to drop by your place to walk or give pee breaks to your pet, I am more than willing to stay and play and follow any care instructions you provide.

“Amandeep has been amazing with taking care of our senior dog. He is extremely friendly and attentive to our dogs needs and keeps us up to date by taking pictures and writing visit reports. We are so appreciative of how gentle and patient he is with our dog who is quite old. I would definitely recommend Amandeep!”

About: I’ve been an animal lover and dog walker since I was a child, I find great passion and joy in being able to spend my free time caring for dogs. I recently just moved to Pickering from Scarborough so I am now accepting new clients again as everything is settled in. I am now working Full Time from home. This does give me some flexibility:) I have a big back yard which is fenced which will provide your dog with lots of room to run around and safety. There are also many enclosed grass parks in the area to enjoy. I am currently working Full Time from Home and still accepting requests :) I do my best to make sure I am available for you. I have a fenced private backyard for your pup. They are also allowed on the furniture and beds :) We also have a yard not to far down the street.

“We had a wonderful experience with Rachita! She was very punctual and consistently kept us updated with photos and messages, which gave us great peace of mind while we were away. Our cat was clearly well cared for. I recommend Rachita's services to anyone looking for the reliable sitter!”

“Thank you Xuefeng for taking great care of our two cats! All instructions were followed and we received some pictures while we were away. Even our really shy cat came out to see her and was comfortable enough for pets. We would highly recommend Xuefeng to take care of your cats!”

“I would give more stars if I could! This was our first time leaving our old girl at home for the weekend as she it too difficult for her to join us camping unfortunately. Alexandra set our minds at ease immediately upon meeting her. Her communication is fantastic and she went above and beyond for our sweet Nala. I was super anxious about leaving her with a stranger but was so pleasantly surprised how much love and gentle care Alexandra gave to her. I absolutely recommend trusting her with your fur babies, I will definitely use her again ☺️”

About: Dogs in our home are treated like family. I provide a safe, loving and structured environment where dogs can feel comfortable, relaxed and cared for while they are away from home. Since I was a child I have always had dogs in my life, and caring for them has always been something I truly love. For me, dogs are like little family members and I enjoy giving them attention, affection and proper care. We have a calm home environment and a good routine that helps dogs feel safe and comfortable during their stay. Our daily routine includes: • Morning potty breaks • Feeding schedules according to the owner’s instructions • Playtime and social interaction • Walks when needed • Quiet nap times throughout the day Dogs who spend the day here usually go home happy and tired after a full day of play and activity. Puppies are very welcome here 🐾 We especially love caring for puppies and small dogs. We understand their energy, their need for attention, and their routines. Puppies require patience and supervision, and we are very comfortable caring for them. We also have a very loved puppy at home named Odin. He is gentle, friendly and well socialized with other dogs. He enjoys playing and helps other dogs burn energy during the day. Our home offers a calm environment where dogs can play, rest and feel safe. in the morning we go out with them to take care of their needs, feed them three times a day, change the water, a calm and peaceful environment for rest. if necessary, we can go for a walk more than once a day. we take care of them with great confidence and love, always attentive to the dog and its needs. Passing on affection and trust. we always do the best I can.

About: ONLY 1 fur friend each time. Pets are families. They deserve love and care. My mom had a cat, we play, eat, sleep together. He taught me how to enjoy life no matter what you have experienced or experiencing. My friend had a dog, I always go visit. We played and went out for walks often. Thank you so much for picking me and share your cute family with me. I only accept 1 fur friend or 2 from the same family each time so I can put all my attention on him/her. Loves hiking when weather permits,5km min. For 🐶 will provide daily walking data so you know how long we walked and how much energy we burned. We will go out for a walk in the morning time, lunch time and dinner time. More short 15-20 potty breaks in between as well. 3 times of walking of 30 min would be by default. On weekends will go hiking with 5km min. I lived in a pet friendly condo and the neighborhood is very quiet to take a walk. There are two community parks nearby to visit. When walking in the neighborhood and condo, will always meet at least 1 or 2 pet friend.

“Cassandra took very good care of pearl for the 18 days we were away. Pearl got comfortable with her and seemed to enjoy her visits a lot. I would definitely want to rebook with Cassandra anytime in the future. Thanks a lot Cassandra!”

About: I have been around dogs ever since I can remember. I got my own dog when I was 14 as a gift and she was my baby, she passed away 2 years ago and she is my inspiration for getting this app. I currently have 2 lovely kitties that I love very much. I occassionally dog sit my sister's frenchie as you would see in my photos. He's the cutest. I love animals and have taken care of different kinds whether they're mine or not. I go on alot of big walks especially in the Summer! I am only currently available on weekends and after 5 pm on weekdays but I would be so happy to take your dogs on long walks. I love hiking and walking. I currently have 2 cats that are super spoiled and overall just great companions. I love dogs too and would love to have interaction with dogs.

“We met Claudia and Ken the other day during our initial meet and greet and Sammy our dog obviously felt comfortable with them. Claudia took him for a walk today and he had a great time. We just adopted Sammy a few weeks ago, so we are still getting to know him and how he reacts to other people and other dogs. He trotted off with Claudia without a backward glance at me today, so that reassures me that he is happy to be with her. We will definitely be booking with her again!”

About: I’ve taken care of many different dogs throughout the past 5 years and continue to do so as my way of being and loving these furry friends as I’m unable to own my own (until I move out haha). I have experience with fostering dogs of all types. I can assure you, your pup is in great hands of someone who is very attentive, playful and loves going for strolls. I love making new friends and furry ones at that! I work full time however I do work from home most days. I’m in office on Mondays and Thursdays with the odd day here or there. I am able to care in the evenings after 6pm, or midday during my work from home days from 11-1:30. I also have many weekends free. I do ask for a weeks notice as things do come up and I keep a detailed calendar on hand I offer services at clients homes due to the allergies I have at my own. In your home, I will make note of your furry friends favourite things and least favourite things as you discuss with me. I will be sure to ask for anything that may stick out as a question and I don’t hold back on understanding your dog better, so apologies for the list of questions I may ask at the start, I’m just wanting to make your dogs day better! I like to also keep note of behaviours and activities I notice to hello your dog feel most comfortable around me. Introducing and stating off slow is my best method as I allow for the dog to warm up to me
