“I need a sitter who is reliable to watch my service dog when I cannot be with her. Holly is an efficient communicator and I trust her in caring for my service dog.”


About: Over 17 years of experience caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, different backgrounds including my furbabies, fostering, caring for transitioned streetdogs to forever homes, I have developed a great connection and understanding of dogs desires for trust and happiness. Caring for pets is an important part of my life. I love animals and believe each animal has a beautiful soul and unique personality 💖 My daily schedule revolves around them to ensure a well-deserved care and love. It's a way of my life. I care for them with dedication and personalized attention. I have fenced yards, and 2 furbabies to keep yours company. You can trust me with your furry family member providing a safe and happy time while they're under my care. I can accommodate to what suits you and your pet best.

About: My partner and I have both been professional dog walkers. We have experience working with difficult dogs, puppies, senior dogs and following specific training routines. We have done solo walks and walks up to 9 dogs at a time. Flexible and can work with different schedules. I’m free most days and always up for an adventure with a furry friend or just a good snuggle. My partner and I work different schedules so between the two of us we have lots of availability. Im currently working part time so I have lots of time to play with your pups! I often go for walks and spend lots of time outside so it would make it much better with a pup Always respectful when picking up pup from your house and always drop pup off with clean paws after the adventure. We keep our apartment clean and tidy. I can work around schedules and different training techniques or routines

About: I’ve taken care of all sorts of animals from deer to horses to your basic pup or kitty. I welcome any animal with open arms. I have been around animals for as long as I can remember so I understand the requirements they have to being happy and healthy. I’m happy to take your dog on a long walk or to play fetch in the backyard and if your dog wants to be a couch potato I’m just as happy snuggled up watching a movie. Same goes for all the adorable cats, I will gladly play with a laser or I’m happy petting them until they are purring non stop. Not to brag or anything but I was the only one in my house who could bath my dog 😆 I work part-time, so while some weekdays can get a little busy, I always make sure pets get the love and attention they deserve. Weekends are my favourite! I’m usually free during the day and work in the evenings, which means plenty of time for walks, playtime, and extra cuddles while its early. Pets are always a priority in my routine!! Your pets’ happiness and well being will always be my top priority. I’ll make sure they’re well fed, have fresh water, and get regular potty breaks or a clean litter box. We’ll enjoy fun playtime and the exercise they need to stay healthy or, if they’re feeling a bit lazy, we’ll snuggle up and relax together. No matter their personality, I’ll treat them with the same love and care I’d give my own.

About: Since our 1st family dog as a child our house has always been filled with furry paws. I have experience with dogs of all sizes from small to large. I am a childcare provider who is working part time. I have lots of free time during the day to care for your special furry friend. I work part time so have lots of free time to get out and go for walks during the day in all types of weather. We will enjoy walks in the neighborhood, or sometimes go on the trails and hike or even beach walks. If you have more then 1 dog that's not a problem at all.

About: What sets me apart is my calm, confident energy with animals and my ability to quickly build trust—even with shy or nervous pups. I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes and personalities, from playful puppies to older dogs who just need a slow stroll and some company. I’m comfortable with leash reactivity, basic commands, and making every walk safe, engaging, and stress-free. At home, I’ve been lucky to share my life with two amazing rescue dogs—Lucille, who I adopted from a shelter 7 years ago, and Mila, who joined me 2 years ago. They’ve taught me so much about patience, communication, and the individual needs that every dog has. I bring that same understanding and care to every dog I walk or look after. Above all, I treat every dog like my own—with respect, love, and attention to their unique personality. You can expect consistent updates, photos, and peace of mind knowing your pup is in good hands. I work full-time Monday through Friday from 7:00 AM to 4:30 PM, but I’m available most evenings for after-dinner walks—great for pups who need a little extra exercise or company to wind down. I’m also available all day on weekends for walks or drop-ins. While my weekday daytime availability is limited, I do my best to stay flexible and accommodate special requests whenever possible. If you have a specific time or need in mind, feel free to reach out—I’d be happy to see if I can make it work! When caring for pets, whether in my home or yours, I make it a point of emphasis to create a calm, safe, and comfortable environment where your dog can feel at ease. I follow your instructions closely and maintain your dog’s routine as much as possible to reduce stress and keep things familiar for them. In your home, I’m respectful of your space and mindful of any rules or preferences you have. I make sure your dog is safe, has access to water, and gets plenty of attention and care while you’re away. I also double-check doors, gates, and leashes every time—safety always comes first. I believe trust is built through consistency and communication. I’ll always keep you updated with messages and photos so you feel confident your pup is happy and well cared for.

About: I come from Ecuador where having a dog as part of the family is very common - so as a dog-lover here in Port Colborne, I am happy to provide the wise loving care you want for your pup. My wife and I have a sweet female 2-year-old golden doodle who is totally part of our family. We’d welcome your dog, too - whether it’s for a walk, a day-long play date, or a sleep over. When caring for pets, I feed them, give them fresh water, walk or play with them, and clean up after them. I make sure they're comfortable and happy.

About: We have owned dogs and cats our whole lives. Our family doesn’t think of cats and dogs as pets, but as our fur babies! Your pets/fur babies will be treated and spoiled the same way ours are as well!!! Our kids ages range from 10-14Our twins do have adhd/odd and one has severe social anxiety. We look forward to meeting you! I work from home running a home based day spa in my basement full time, which helps a lot as it keeps me as a stay at home mom. I always check for messes around the home, I put the fur babies outside and or clean up the space then take the fur babies outside in the back yard or for a walk etc. I prefer to leave a note of what I have done or send a text/email and or ask for the owners to leave a check list behind for me to check off/initial.

About: Growing up with dogs certainly makes a lot of difference. Although I do not have any professional per se experience but being a dog owner has definitely made me realize how other dog owners feel. We all want the same thing, our beautiful, furry friends to get the happiness and health they deserve. And when you're too busy with your jobs to provide them attention, that's what I am here for. With me near your dogs, you won't have to worry about anything. I have also given my four dogs training and handled them since they were babies. Being in this profession is not just about making money, it is also for doing what I love the most- taking care of dogs. Given me a chance, your dog will feel safe, nourished and happy. I am a full time architectural technologist looking for some extra income. That being said, being a pet owner myself I realize how anxiety inducing it can be to leave your pets alone. My main goal would be to provide a healthy and safe environment for your pets in your absence. Although I live in a duplex, I have access to the front and back yard and the neighborhood I live in is extremely pet friendly with dog parks on a 10 minute walking distance. I can easily create separate spaces for multiple pets and take them out on walks as required.

“Jedidjah did an amazing job with my cats while I was away. I was kind of nervous leaving them with someone unfamilar but she did a meet and greet before I went away and her calm demeanor put any worries I had at ease. She kept me up to date with how they were doing and sent me pictures every day. They took to her like white on rice. I will happily be rebooking with her in the future when I go away on vacation again.”

“I recently had the pleasure of having Katrina take care of my dogs, and I couldn't be happier with the experience. Katrina was outstanding in every aspect of her service. She followed all my instructions meticulously and went above and beyond to ensure my dogs were well taken care of. From the moment she arrived, it was evident that she has a natural affinity with animals. My dogs, who can be quite picky with strangers, immediately warmed up to her. She was patient, loving, and attentive to their needs. Thank you so much”

About: Hi, my name is Tiffany. I love all kinds of animals and have a lot of experience caring for different pets. I currently own 2 little rat babes and am a dog mom to a Great Pyrenees puppy. I am in love with big dogs, the bigger the better! I grew up in a home that has constantly had pets and I couldn't picture my life without a furbaby. My life has revolved around animals and their wellbeing. I have done a co-op course at a Vets office in the past and learned so many new things for the 6 months that I was there, it was an experience like no other. With all my knowledge I am positive your pet will have a blast and make a new friend in me!

“Jenny was quick to help us out on pretty short notice. We just moved to Welland so my regular sitter cancelled. Hunter usually runs away when anyone comes in to the house, but Jenny sent pictures of him hanging out with her and said he Meow- talked to her on just the second visit. So she has his seal of approval, which is most important!”


About: I am a trustworthy and dependable animal sitter located in Port Colborne, and most importantly, a big animal lover! I live in the country on a farm, and have a large backyard to accommodate off-leash play time and provide ample exercise for dogs, while ensuring their safety and security. I have years of experience with both cats and dogs, and have one cat of my own. While I currently do not have a dog, I have raised Shetland Sheepdogs, Golden Retrievers, Rough Collies, Poodles, and several mixed breeds as well. I also offer dog boarding services for longer stays. Pick-up and drop-off services are available upon request. Dog boarding requirements: All dogs are required to have all their boosters up to date, including DHPP and Rabies. They also need be up to date on their flea and tick medication (this is important for the country). Please let me know if the dog is not spayed/neutered if over 8 months. I have a very flexible schedule working from home for my own small business, so I have lots of time for the furry friends and lots of wiggle room to accommodate! The house is large but I can easily crate your dog if needed. The farm sits on 63 acres so there is plenty of room to enjoy a good walk. I would like to know if the dog has any special needs or quirks. Also handy to know are common commands the dog has been trained with and how they interact with other dogs/humans etc., as well as anything else you think is important for me to know. I look forward to spending time with your pet!

Cassandra M.

“Amazing, it was nice to go away and feel comfortable that my animals were well taken care of. Cassandra is professional and cares about the animals she has in her care.”


Toktam J.
“I have known Toktam since early in 2021. She had courageously rescued a beagle from a laboratory as part of a group of animal lovers who wanted to save these abused animals from being destroyed. Unfortunately, one of her two existing dogs brought out the worst in her latest rescue. She engaged Dog Tales Rescue in Vaughan to help her navigate the situation. After much effort and several painful bites, it was clear she would need to rehome the beagle. That's when I met Toktam and Hero the beagle. We worked together to gain Hero's trust and spent many hours together in home visits and walks. The day came when we thought we were ready, and Toktam brought Hero to my home, spent the night with us and left without Hero the next day. This is one of the most courageous acts of love I have ever witnessed. Fast forward to today, and Hero is thoroughly enjoying his only fur-child home. His first mom, Toktam and I still connect and I share pictures and stories of Hero. She misses him but has since adopted another fur-child for her pack. You could not have a more experienced, behaviour educated person caring for your pet. She was always reliable when we made plans and is an excellent communicator. I have nothing but admiration for and confidence in Toktam, and thus have no reservations in recommending her to you.”


Arden A.
“Arden has been a pet sitter for our dog apsley on many occasions and we adore her! Apsley is a big dog with a lot of challenging behaviours when walking and she handles him really well. I’d recommend her to absolutely anyone. Sometimes she asks to be paid in snacks, but you just have to insist and she’ll accept cash. 5/5 stars”


Cheyenne A.
“Cheyenne most of her life has had at least one pet. She loves animals and goes out of her way to treat, spoil or just play with animals. She is a responsible worker, from the age of 16 she has held one job.”

“Kyia is so sweet and very reliable!”


Catia W.
“Catia is friendly and her bubbly personality is great for my dog, not only is she a loving pet owner herself she provides a safe, reliable service.”


Andre B.
“I can’t recommend Andre highly enough as a dog walker and pet sitter. He has watched my two dogs, Gambino and Ace, on several occasions—both for house sitting and for regular walks—and they absolutely adore him. Gambino, who is usually more task-focused and selective with her attention, lights up when she sees him. And Ace, who wants to be everyone’s best friend, treats him like family. What sets Andre apart is his calm, dependable energy and the way he genuinely connects with animals. He’s attentive, respectful of my home, and always goes above and beyond to make sure my dogs are safe, happy, and well cared for. I trust him completely, and I know other pet parents will too. He would be a fantastic asset to any Rover client looking for someone reliable, loving, and experienced with dogs of all personalities and needs.”


Morgan E.
“Morgan house sat and watched our 2 dogs and our cat while we were away for a week. She was amazing with them! Sent photos of them to us each day, ensured their needs were met and took the dogs for walks according to our schedule! I can't say enough great things about her and her care she provided for our pets.”

Brittany C.
“I was introduced to Brittany about 5 years ago by a close personal friend of mine. At the time I was in search of a responsible and reliable person to house-sit and take care of my three dogs when traveling. Brittany is very knowledgeable on how to properly care for dogs, is extremely prompt and always send updates. Whenever I return home, it is always tidy, very clean and it was obvious my dogs had been well loved and cared for. I would highly recommend Brittany as a pet sitter without any reservation. - Stefania”
