“Une expérience 200 % positive! 🐾 Nous avons tout de suite vu que notre Yuki était entre de très bonnes mains. Leur professionnalisme, leur expérience et surtout leur façon de faire une intégration progressive et respectueuse des chiens nous ont vraiment impressionnés. Ils ont été disponibles en tout temps, répondaient très rapidement et nous donnaient quotidiennement des nouvelles avec de belles photos. On sent qu’ils aiment vraiment les chiens et qu’ils savent parfaitement comment en prendre soin. Nous les recommandons sans aucune hésitation et nous referons affaire avec eux sans problème! ❤️🐶”
“Charlie had stayed with Anh and her family for 9 nights for the first time. Although he never stayed with non- family member before, I felt at ease and safe leaving Charlie with Anh. She took care as if he was her own. I received daily updates and photos of Charlie, including an overall summary of his time at the end of his boarding. Thank you Anh and your family for taking a good care of Charlie. I will definitely be using your services again.”
“Lin and Jing came to our rescue once again! Skylar is getting older and isn't as fond of road trips, especially when they involve camping in a damp tent. We realized we'd neglected to make arrangements for her, so we quickly turned to Rover and searched for Lin and Jing. Luckily, they had an opening for the weekend! It had been a while since Skylar had stayed with them and Tini, but as soon as we pulled into the driveway, she was thrilled. She ran straight for the front door, and I couldn't have been happier to see her so excited for her weekend away. Thank you for making Skylar feel right at home!”
“This was my first experience using Rover, and I was extremely impressed with Claudine's services. She took care of Oreo as if he were her own, and Oreo instantly loved her the moment they met. Claudine has such a beautiful, calm energy that immediately put both Oreo and me at ease. She took Oreo on plenty of walks and kept both my daughter and me updated with lots of pictures, which meant so much to us. It was clear that Oreo was happy, comfortable, and very well cared for during his 3 night stay. I am extremely happy with her services and will definitely be booking with her again. Thank you so much, Claudine!”
“Je suis ravie d avoir trouvé une gardienne pour mon chien, c est toujours pratique et en plus elle est super fine et douce. Très bien organisé sur son terrain et aussi dans la maison. Je recommande Katya L. J ai eu une très belle expérience et mon chien là adorée. Merci Katya”
“Christina's like a dog behaviorist! She was able perfectly calm & attend to Chikko's needs. She updated me woth photos & videos of our Chikko everytime whenever needed. She also treated Chikko as her own. She ensures that your pet has enough walks and knows exactly what your pet needs. Christina is a blessing!”
“Premier séjour très réussi considérant que nous avons 2 chiens âgés. Nos chiens sont revenus calmes, reposés et sereins. Nous avons été rassurés pendant le séjour de 3 nuits en recevant des photos à tous les jours de Joni. Les chiens avaient l’air de s’adapter très bien grâce a l’attention qu’il leur est donné. Joni est très conscieuse lorsque nous lui donnons des instructions. Nous pouvons désormais partir l’esprit en paix en sachant que nos chiens auront les bons soins, l’attention et l’affection de Joni et de son conjoint. Merci!”
“Joy and Ron are amazing people, they took care of my dog and were very transparent and upfront. They’re knowledge of dogs is unparallel as they’ve had dog their entire life!”
“Famille bienveillante et chaleureuse pour notre chien. Ils nous ont donné des nouvelles pour nous rassurer. Chiffon a passé un très bon moment avec eux. Nous n'aurions pas pu espérer mieux. Communication facile et rapide avec Vivianne.”
“Luisa is an amazing sitter! She and her husband took good care of our Milo. She sent us photos, videos and updates everyday, I was really worried of leaving Milo and not sure how he will be but that quickly changed. I can see from the videos that Milo was so comfortable with her and she has 2 Yorkies Piccolo and Joythat Milo loves playing with. I am so lucky to have found her, very caring and responsive. I will be booking with her again, she s someone you can trust with your fur baby, highly recommend.”
“Corina took amazing care of my pets, Lucy and Holly. She kept me updated with sweet photos and a fun video that made my day. Lucy was clearly happy and Holly was safe and cared for. It gave me total peace of mind while I was away. Highly recommend—she’s a gem! 10 stars!!”
“This is the third time my dog Luna stayed with Thomas, and again both Luna and myself are very happy with the service and care provided. Thomas is a very well experienced and excellent dog sitter, I can safely say every dog would love him. Highly recommended !!!!!!”
“Un grand merci à cette pension pour animaux ! Ils ont vraiment pris soin de mon chien comme si c’était le leur. Mon chien ne comprend que le chinois, et ils ont même appris quelques mots en chinois juste pour mieux communiquer avec lui – j’ai trouvé ça vraiment génial ! Pendant tout son séjour, j’ai senti qu’il était entre de bonnes mains, ce qui m’a vraiment rassuré. Si vous cherchez un endroit où on prend vraiment soin de vos animaux, je vous les recommande à 100% !”
“Daisy and Donny were fantastic! They were very communicative, with many photo and video updates, which really helped put my mind at ease on my long trip. They cared for my dog with much love. Thank you so much!”
“Carlos & his family were so accommodating and thoughtful in taking care of Seven while we were away. He was extremely responsive, sent updates throughout her stay, was reassuring and had everything under control making our time away so much more enjoyable knowing she was in great hands. They are genuine dog people, with great experience, I would without hesitation recommend them to anyone considering a dog sitter. Thank you Carlos for everything! We will indeed book again.”
“Laila and her husband took amazing care of our Luka while we were away for almost two weeks. She was very attentive to his needs, communicated well with us, and went the extra mile to go get him eye drops when he needed them for his irritated eye, buying the correct food when it ran out since we were on a long trip, and even bought us an extra bag of food so I wouldn’t have to go through the trouble of passing by the pet store while settling back in from my trip. I would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for a sitter, Luka looked to have a great time with them and I will definitely contact them for future trips!”
“Steven was amazing with us and with our dog. He was responsive, prompt and is a very positive person. He has a great relationship with dogs and took excellent care of our dog. I would definitely leave our dog with Steven again if we go away, knowing he is in good hands.”
“Nous sommes tellement content que Mila ait eu une personne attentionnée comme Cinthia et son conjoint ainsi que des amis yorkies comme elle avec qui jouer. Mila demande beaucoup d’affection et Cinthia lui en a donner elle était heureuse avec elle et l’aimait clairement. Les photos et vidéos tout au long ont été vraiment apprécié aussi ça nous aidait à profiter avec la tête tranquille !! Un gros merci 🤗🥰🐶”

About: Garder un animal, ce n’est pas seulement le surveiller mais c’est aussi de comprendre son rythme, son caractère et ses petits rituels. Avec moi, chaque animal est traité comme un individu à part entière. Je prends le temps de m’adapter à son énergie, que ce soit pour de longues promenades actives ou des moments plus calmes et rassurants. Mon objectif est simple c'est qu’il se sente en sécurité, stimulé et aimé, même en l’absence de son humain. Je porte une attention particulière aux détails qui font toute la différence dont respecter ses habitudes, reconnaître ses signaux, et offrir une présence constante et attentive. Ce qui me distingue ? je suis éducatrice spécialisée depuis 25 ans, j'ai une approche à la fois douce et engagée, je ne fais pas que garder des animaux mais je crée un lien et un environnement où ils peuvent vraiment s’épanouir. Confier son animal, c’est confier un membre de sa famille. Je prends cette responsabilité très à cœur et avec bienveillance. Chaque journée est organisée de façon à offrir aux animaux une présence attentive et des moments de qualité, que ce soit pour les promenades, les repas ou les périodes de jeu et de repos. Je planifie mes horaires pour respecter les besoins spécifiques de chaque animal. J’adapte mon organisation pour assurer une constance et une stabilité, ce qui est essentiel pour les animaux. Prendre soin des animaux n’est pas une tâche ponctuelle pour moi, mais une routine bien établie où leur bien-être est toujours une priorité. Chaque animal est accueilli dans un environnement calme et propre, adapté à ses besoins. Je veille à ce que les espaces soient sécurisés, sûrs et propices à son bien-être. Je dispose d'une grande cours clôturé et d'un espace boisé derrière ma maison, avec des sentiers pour les promenades. La communication est également essentielle à mes yeux ; par exemple, je vous tiens régulièrement informé afin que vous ayez toujours l'esprit tranquille.
“Robyn was very nice. She took great care of our fur babies while we were in vacations. She sent pictures and notes everyday, save our furnitures from our little monsters and even cleaned a bit before we came back.”
About: J'ai eu deux chiens (berger allemand et golden retriver) et j'ai suivi des cours de dressage afin de bien les éduquer. J'ai eu aussi plusieurs chats. J'aime beaucoup les animaux! Je suis sémi-retraitée donc beaucoup de temps et de disponibilité pour promener et ou m'occuper de vos animaux. Ça peut être nourrir autant les chats que promener les chiens. Je suis disponible pour faire faire une promenade à votre chien et ce à partir de votre domicile et/ou les emmener dans ma mini van dans un parc à chien. Je veille à ce que votre chien soit en sécurité que ce soit pour le froid ou la chaleur.
“Pamela is such a sweetheart. She's done doggy daycare for me in the past, but this time she stopped by to check in on my cat while I was out of town with the dog. She took photos to let me know my request for litter cleaning was complete and that my cat was doing well. She also left a very nice note for me for when I got home. Will definitely be booking her again for both my dog and cat!”
About: I have been around and taken care of many family and friends pets, on occasion, throughout my life. I just recently officially introduced myself to the pet owner life. No matter the personality or energy level of your pet I am ready to be there and take care. I mainly work as an actor. This means that most of the time I have off unless I have a role. Due to the fact that my availability is completely open most of time and I am not fixed to a weekly schedule, I am able to offer my services any time. Even last minute. The owner would be fully aware of anything I can/will do. I am there to not only take care of your pet but also your home.
About: I've had cats all my life and animals seem to love me. I love cats and understand their needs. Happy to cat sit cats of all ages. I'm a retired stay at home dad. I am out and about most days so drop ins are easy for me to fit into the day. I absolutely love cats but my wife is allergic so any chance I can spend time around kittens or cats im in heaven. I volunteer at my kids school in my neighborhood and am happy to meet and greet you and your cats to set your mind at ease while you need your cats taken care of.
About: I believe animals are always communicating with us, and I approach pet care by listening first and responding with patience and care. I have 12 years of experience with my own dog and have worked through reactivity, anxiety, fear of noises, and leash pulling using positive reinforcement. I have worked with multiple trainers over the years and have spent a lot of time learning about dog behaviour and psychology, which has shaped how I care for animals today. I pay close attention to body language and subtle cues like freezing, yawning, or disengaging. When a dog seems overwhelmed, I focus on helping them feel safe and settled by creating space, choosing calmer routes or environments, or redirecting them toward something grounding. With shy or nervous dogs, I always let them approach on their own terms and give them the freedom to take breaks or step away when needed. I also believe in balancing physical and mental stimulation. Along with fulfilling walks, I enjoy incorporating enrichment like sniffing games, confidence-building activities, and gentle training. These activities work well for high-energy dogs and can also help more nervous or shy dogs feel comfortable and confident. I have experience caring for large and small dogs, puppies, and senior dogs, as well as administering medication including pills, liquids, topical treatments, and ear drops. I am very comfortable following vet instructions and care routines, and I tend to be very organized and attentive to detail. Above all, I genuinely care about each animal’s wellbeing and individuality. I use patience, positive reinforcement, and observation as the foundation of my care, and I always do my best to make sure every pet feels safe, understood, and cared for. I’m currently a work-from-home professional so I am quite flexible time and space wise. I am available at virtually any time and can readily offer overnight care in your home while you’re away. With a persistent attention to detail, I frequently look out for when an animal is trying to communicate a need, such as them wanting water, to play, to eat, to be pet, etc. I always ensure they have fresh, clean water and that they are fed the appropriate amount and on time. I also like to spend quality time with them giving them belly rubs and and behind-the-ear scratches. I also look out for their safety by keeping things that might be dangerous out of reach as well as checking in on them frequently to make sure they are doing well :)
About: I've been surrounded by animals my whole life, and caring for them is something I genuinely love. I've had my own dog for over 10 years, and I've also had the joy of caring for my sister's cat while she was away, making sure she had everything she needed and never felt lonely
About: I grew up with 30+ bunnies in my backyard, and had 3 cats. My mom still has 2 rescued dogs and 4 rescued cats and 1 bird that i babysit sometimes while working from home. I currently live with my sister that has a small pugchi mix so i’m used to being the babysitter for her as well when she goes to work or on trips. I took care of 2 ex-boyfriend’s dogs that were a german shepherd and a golden retriever. I work from home 100% of the time (so I can stay for as long as needed and give your home and furry friends all the love and attention they deserve!) All i need is for you to have reliable Wi-Fi i can connect to in order to work. Im able to give your pet attention throughout the whole day and go for potty breaks when needed. Walks would be before work, during lunchbreak and after work. I speak FR and EN. I can give you updates and pictures as much as you need to feel like your baby is safe. I’m a very calm person and would be working on my computer wether it’s a weekday or weekend so your home is in good hands. I can also do a house clean for a fee if you’re interested.
About: Since childhood, I’ve been taking care of my neighbors’ cats while they were on vacation, whether it was feeding them, playing with them, or simply keeping them company. Today, I’m the proud parent of two energetic Bengals—they even have their own cat wheel to burn off energy! I’ve also raised a litter of kittens, which helped me understand the needs of cats at every stage of their lives. From active play sessions to calm, relaxing moments, I know how to give each cat the attention it deserves.
About: I work mostly from home, am reliable, caring and very active. I don't have a yard, however I live close to large parks and beautiful areas to go exercise dogs. My personal dog is high energy, we are constantly out for adventures. I am a dog trainer as a hobby, lots of understanding of canine body language/ behavior/needs, tons of puppy experience and I love high drive, high energy dogs. I work from home, can provide walks and exercise especially in the morning, the best way to start the day. During work hours, i can provide potty breaks whenever necessary No yard, but plenty of areas walking or driving distance to go move with dogs, no matter the weather conditions, dogs must move ! I do require dogs to be crate trained if they are boarding with me, mainly for safety should I need to leave them alone.
About: **English version coming :) Bonjour! Hello! Je m’appelle Vanessa et je parle français et anglais. N’hésitez pas à communiquer avec moi dans la langue de votre choix! Depuis toujours, les animaux occupent une place essentielle dans ma vie. J’ai grandi entourée de chiens et de chats, ce qui m’a permis de développer une véritable complicité avec eux. Je sais à quel point il peut être difficile de confier son compagnon à quelqu’un d’autre. C’est pourquoi je prends cette responsabilité très au sérieux. Avec moi, votre animal recevra toute l’attention, l’affection et les soins qu’il mérite. Vous pouvez avoir l’esprit tranquille : je prendrai soin de votre compagnon comme s’il faisait partie de ma propre famille. 🌸 Je suis également disponible pour m’occuper d’autres types d’animaux. Avec vos consignes et les informations nécessaires, je ferai toujours de mon mieux pour répondre à leurs besoins et assurer leur bien-être. Je dois toutefois avouer que j’ai moins d’expérience avec les oiseaux, les rongeurs et les reptiles. Cela dit, si vous prenez le temps de m’expliquer leurs besoins et votre routine, je serai ravie de m’en occuper avec attention. À la maison, les animaux font partie de mon quotidien! J’en ai plusieurs et je m’occupe aussi d’une colonie de chats. Vous pouvez donc avoir confiance : je suis habituée à prendre soin de nos amis à quatre pattes! Mon objectif est toujours le même : offrir une présence bienveillante, rassurante et des soins de qualité à votre compagnon, quel qu’il soit! 🐾 Hello! My name is Vanessa, and I speak both French and English. Feel free to contact me in whichever language you prefer! Animals have always been a big part of my life. I grew up surrounded by dogs and cats, which allowed me to build a strong bond with them from an early age. I know how difficult it can be to trust someone else with your beloved companion, and that's why I take that responsibility very seriously. With me, your pet will receive all the attention, affection, and care they deserve. You can have peace of mind knowing that I'll care for your companion as if they were part of my own family. 🌸 I'm also happy to care for other types of pets. As long as you provide me with their routine and any important instructions, I'll always do my best to meet their needs and ensure they're happy, healthy, and comfortable. I do have less experience with birds, rodents, and reptiles. That said, if you take the time to explain their care routine and specific needs, I'd be more than happy to look after them with the same dedication and attention. At home, animals are part of my everyday life! I have several pets of my own, and I also care for a colony of community cats. You can trust that I'm very comfortable caring for our four-legged friends and treating them with the love and respect they deserve! My goal is always the same: to provide kind, reliable, and high-quality care, giving your companion the love and reassurance they deserve, no matter what kind of pet they are. 🐾 Agente de bord, je bénéficie d’un horaire très flexible. Je ferai toujours de mon mieux pour m’adapter à vos disponibilités, et je suis convaincue que nous pourrons trouver un horaire qui nous conviendra à tous! Je suis ouverte aux demandes additionnelles : passer du temps avec vos compagnons, les surveiller dans la cour, promener votre chat, jouer avec eux… ect. Je propose des gardes à domicile ainsi que des sorties! Sachez que je prendrai soin de vos animaux comme vous le feriez vous-même à la maison, en respectant à la lettre vos règles et vos habitudes. Que vous préfériez laisser un bol de nourriture disponible toute la journée ou suivre un horaire précis pour les repas, je m’adapterai avec plaisir. Mon seul intérêt est le bien-être et le bonheur de vos animaux.

“Mina was so well taken care of and loved! I received lots of photos and videos, which made me feel so reassured whenever I missed her. I’ll definitely reach out to them again whenever we need dog sitting. 🥹 thank you”
“Ivonne did a great job taking care of our little Anya. She kept me up to date on the walks she took with our puppy and sent us some pictures. After the first day, Anya would get very excited when we approached Ivonne's house and would bolt straight out of the car towards her home as soon as we arrived. Anya always looked very happy when I picked her up and would be dead tired for the rest of the evening a sign that she played alot during the day. I would recommend Ivonne to anyone looking for a great sitter and would consider calling on her again in a heartbeat.”

About: Hello Everyone: My name is Meagan and I have owned animals for a majority of my life. I have owned several different breeds of dogs and have had cats all of my life. I have personally trained all of my dogs and know what it takes to ensure your fur baby is happy and healthy. I am also a registered early childhood educator; families trust me with their children, so you can trust me with your furry friends. I currently have two dogs and one cat. Jewels is my 10 year old spaniel mix; Pëpé is my 11 year old chihuahua, and Verne is my 3 year old cat. Since I have a child, two dogs and cat, meet and greets are mandatory. The reason I want to take up walking/care taking dogs and cats is to be more active, and give some freedom and relaxation to other dog owners who need it. I have a fenced yard, and animals are free to roam the upper level of my house. The cat has the basement to himself . Your dog's must be leash trained and don't pull. I am unable to watch dogs that have seperation anxiety. I am at home full time right now. The longest I am away from the house is 2.5 hours. My goal is to open a huge pet sitting location so that I can offer more services to those in need. My service prices depend on your needs. Base prices are yard outings only. If your dog needs long walks, my prices will go up to include 30 minutes or 60 minute walks. I let them have access to water at all times and will play with them. There is a baby here, so the dogs can stay around her if they are good with babies.
“Thank you Anh and Quang. My dog had a great day at their place. They took my dog out on a walk and she had lots of play time and rested too. I received lots of updates and pictures throughout the day. Their dog Kind is very chill and friendly. I greatly recommend them. They were able to accommodate my last minute request. Thank you!”
“Janice treated Teddy like he was her own. Receiving pictures reassured me that he was happy and content. I highly recommend her and would not hesitate in using her services again. Thank you Janice!”
“J’ai eu une excellente expérience avec Audrey comme gardienne pour mon chien. Elle a fait preuve d’un grand professionnalisme, de douceur et d’attention. On sent immédiatement qu’elle aime les animaux, et mon chien s’est rapidement attaché à elle. À mon retour, mon chien était heureux, en confiance et visiblement très bien traité. Je recommande Audrey sans hésitation à toute personne qui cherche quelqu’un de fiable et attentionné pour s’occuper de son animal.”
“Steven is wonderful, he took excellent care of my french bulldog for 3 days in a row, made my dog feel confortable. He's good at keeping you updated with pictures and he's quick at responding texts. Five starts.”
“Rex is my baby and I’m always nervous having to leave him as we both have separation anxiety and I want to make sure my baby is always happy. Graeme and Vicky were so lovely and reassuring … and it seems like Rex very much enjoyed himself and tried to feel at home 😊. Thank you both again for looking after my fur baby and taking care of him. I would definitely book again.”
“Amazing dog sitter! Very caring, reliable, and attentive. I felt completely comfortable knowing my dog was in good hands. I would definitely recommend them and use their services again! 🐶❤️( From Toronto )”
About: Hello. I was a registered Vet Tech for 10years. So, I am able to administrator medications via mouth or injections if required during your pets stay. I had owned cats, dogs, rats, hamsters, etc. I love animals and can't imagine not having them in my life. I work full time from home. So pet care is easy. Especially with a fully fenced back yard. As mentioned, being previously a registered Vet Tech I can do care that most people cannot. I have a fenced yard with a friendly dog who has lived with cats his whole life, but do not have any cats at present.
“Camille and Kevin were absolutely amazing and took such good care of our chihuahua during the day while I was away at a conference!! They were super communicative, friendly, and even went out of their way to pick up and drop her off! Cannot recommend enough — feel so lucky/grateful to have found them!”
“Melissa is just the best- the only person I leave my puppy with! My puppy is totally in love with her so I know she’s getting tons of love while she’s there. Melissa always sends updates, pictures, and does such an amazing job with the special instructions. More than once my puppy has tried going back inside when it was time to leave! Clearly doggy heaven on earth.”
“Alessia & Giovanni were great! We needed some day-sitting and luckily they were able to accommodate our last minute request. Lexi was always excited to go over in the morning so we know she loved hanging out with them during the day. We will definitely use them again!”
“Thank you Carolina and Francisco for taking care of our Dachshund. We received pictures and updates. Our dog had lots of fun, and was tired after all the playing.”
About: I’ve always loved the way dogs bring joy, personality, laughter, and comfort into everyday life. Caring for them comes naturally to me, and I put a lot of intention into making sure each dog feels safe, relaxed, and understood. I love creating a calm, comfortable space for dogs to settle in. I take the time to learn each dog’s routine, quirks, and comfort level so they can feel cared for and at ease. I’m patient, observant, and committed to following the guidelines you set so your dog feels right at home. Here’s what your dog can expect: • A peaceful, comfortable environment • Gentle attention and affection • Walks, playtime, and enrichment based on their energy level • Consistency with your rules and routines • Clear communication and regular updates My goal is for your dog to feel secure and happy — and for you to feel completely at ease while they’re with me. I work from home, so your dog will have company for most of the day. I’m around and attentive, which means plenty of companionship, playtime, and regular trips outside whenever they need a break. The only day I’m typically out of the house is Thursday, but I make sure pets in my care have everything they need before and after I’m gone. My home becomes your pet’s home while they’re here. Dogs are welcome to relax on the couch or curl up in bed—unless you prefer to keep those spaces off‑limits, in which case I’ll happily follow your rules. I also have a spacious backyard that’s mostly fenced, giving dogs room to explore and enjoy some fresh air. Plus, I live in a great area for walks, with several parks nearby and a couple of lovely dog parks for pups who enjoy social time and extra exercise.

About: J’ai toujours eu un grand amour pour les animaux, particulièrement les chiens. J’ai l’habitude de m’occuper d’eux au quotidien : promenades, jeux, alimentation et m’assurer qu’ils se sentent en sécurité et bien entourés. Je suis une personne responsable, attentive et patiente, et je comprends l’importance de respecter les habitudes et les besoins de chaque animal. Avec moi, votre chien recevra toute l’attention, l’affection et les soins nécessaires pendant votre absence. Je suis disponible pour m’occuper de vos animaux tous les jours de la semaine, avec des plages horaires flexibles selon vos besoins. Je peux faire des promenades matin, midi ou soir, ainsi que des visites à domicile pour nourrir, jouer et veiller au bien-être de vos compagnons. Pour toute demande particulière ou horaire personnalisé, n’hésitez pas à me contacter, je m’adapte volontiers pour le confort de votre animal. Chez nous, les animaux sont notre priorité. Nous avons une cour arrière sécurisée où ils peuvent jouer librement, et mes grandes filles adorent les animaux et participent aux soins et aux jeux. Chaque compagnon reçoit toute notre attention, notre affection et un environnement sûr et joyeux où il se sentira comme à la maison.
About: Caring for animals has been part of my life for over 30 years. I’ve had experience with many different types of pets and understand that each one has unique needs. I’m comfortable giving medication, helping with physical therapy, grooming, and continuing training to keep routines consistent. I treat every pet as if they were my own, with patience, gentleness, and lots of love. I'm currently a stay at home mother, with my children in school. This allows me to have complete flexibility to meet your pets needs through out the day & including evenings. My home has a fenced yard, pets are welcome on furniture, crates are available if needed, and I provide close supervision in a calm, loving environment. Our home is a bilingual one. I am happy to provide as many photo updates as you would like!
“Je suis contente que cela soit bien passé la promenade aujourd'hui. Maintenant, joonie ne jappe plus quand Valencia vient le chercher. Je suis contente que le lien s'est créé entre eux.”
“Super belle rencontre avec Edith! Elle a su mettre notre petite cocotte à l'aise dès la première seconde qu'ils se sont vus ? J'ai eu des nouvelles durant toute la période de garde, je recommande ses services sans hésiter et reprendrai les bons soins de Edith à tout moment! ?”
About: I work mostly from home, am reliable, caring and very active. I don't have a yard, however I live close to large parks and beautiful areas to go exercise dogs. My personal dog is high energy, we are constantly out for adventures. I am a dog trainer as a hobby, lots of understanding of canine body language/ behavior/needs, tons of puppy experience and I love high drive, high energy dogs. I work from home, can provide walks and exercise especially in the morning, the best way to start the day. During work hours, i can provide potty breaks whenever necessary No yard, but plenty of areas walking or driving distance to go move with dogs, no matter the weather conditions, dogs must move ! I do require dogs to be crate trained if they are boarding with me, mainly for safety should I need to leave them alone.
About: I don’t have any restricted areas! ! I am a 22 year old girl with full of love to give. Since I was a baby I always had big dogs so I am very used to any size!

About: Les chiens ont toujours occupé une place importante dans ma vie. J'aime apprendre leur personnalité, observer leur langage corporel et créer un lien de confiance avec eux. Il y a quelques années, j'ai été bénévole à la SPCA, où je promenais les chiens et les photographiais afin de créer leur profil d'adoption. Plus récemment, j'ai gardé pendant une semaine la chienne de ma cousine, une Staffordshire Terrier de 9 ans. Cette expérience m'a permis de développer une belle complicité avec elle tout en respectant sa routine : promenades quotidiennes, repas selon sa diète, périodes de jeu, repos et beaucoup d'attention. Je crois qu'un chien s'épanouit lorsqu'il se sent en confiance et que sa routine est respectée. Je prends donc le temps de m'adapter au tempérament de chaque chien afin qu'il se sente en sécurité et bien accompagné pendant votre absence. Mon horaire flexible me permet d'offrir des promenades et des visites à domicile tout au long de la semaine. J'aime marcher, être à l'extérieur et passer du temps avec les chiens. Veiller à leur bien-être tout en respectant leur routine est une activité qui s'intègre naturellement à mon quotidien. Je n'offre pas de garde à mon domicile, mais je me déplace avec plaisir chez vous pour les promenades et les visites à domicile. Je privilégie le respect de la routine de votre chien afin qu'il conserve ses repères et se sente en confiance pendant votre absence. Selon ses besoins, je veille à ses repas, ses promenades, ses sorties pour ses besoins, ses moments de jeu, son hydratation et son bien-être. Je peux également administrer des médicaments par voie orale en suivant les instructions du propriétaire. Mon objectif est qu'il se sente en sécurité et reçoive toute l'attention qu'il mérite jusqu'à votre retour.
About: My passion for animals began at the age of 7, when I took care of a standard poodle and created agility courses for him, since I couldn’t have pets of my own. Since then, my love for animals has only grown, and today I am a proud parent to several companions. Each animal is unique, and I make sure to provide them with attentive care, as if they were part of my family. Caring for animals is an integral part of my daily routine. Between feeding, playtime, and maintaining a clean and stimulating environment, I care for my pets with love every day. I’m used to balancing active play sessions with quiet, relaxing moments. Having also raised a litter of kittens, I know how to adapt my routine to meet the needs of animals at every stage of their lives. Whether it’s for my own pets or others, providing consistent and attentive care comes naturally to me. Whether at my home or my clients’ homes, I always tailor my care to the specific needs of each animal. At home, I create a safe and stimulating environment, with spaces to play, relax, and feel right at home. My pets are used to sharing their space, which makes it easier to welcome new companions. Chez mes clients, je respecte les habitudes et la routine de l'animal pour assurer un maximum de confort en leur absence. Qu'il s'agisse de promenades, de jeux interactifs, de repas ou simplement de leur tenir compagnie, je veille à ce que chaque animal reçoive toute l'attention et les soins nécessaires pour se sentir en sécurité et épanoui.
About: My husband and I are lifelong dog lovers with two dogs of our own. We have plenty of experience caring for dogs of different sizes, personalities and energy levels. We provide a safe, loving and comfortable home where dogs are treated like part of our family. We understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your dog, so we follow each owner’s routine and instructions closely and make sure every dog gets plenty of attention, affection, playtime and care. Matt and I are both home throughout the day, so your dog will have plenty of company, attention and supervision. We love having dogs as part of our daily routine and can easily accommodate regular walks, outdoor breaks, playtime and plenty of cuddles. Since we’re home, we can also closely follow your dog’s usual feeding, exercise and rest schedule to make their stay feel as comfortable and familiar as possible. Your dog’s safety and comfort are our top priorities. With both of us home throughout the day, dogs receive lots of attention and supervision and are rarely left alone. We carefully follow each owner’s instructions and keep dogs securely leashed outside. We take the time to learn each dog’s personality, routine and needs so they can settle in and feel safe, relaxed and loved in our home.
About: I have a soothing and calming energy that dogs feel right away. I enjoy seeing dogs get their exercise and brings me joy to see them being happy. I am currently available during business hours, however I can be flexible as long I have 1-2 days notice to accommodate your request. Weekends can vary. I am currently provding dog walking and dog sitting at your home. Feel free to reach out to me for a meet and greet and for any questions.
About: **English version coming :) Bonjour! Hello! Je m’appelle Vanessa et je parle français et anglais. N’hésitez pas à communiquer avec moi dans la langue de votre choix! Depuis toujours, les animaux occupent une place essentielle dans ma vie. J’ai grandi entourée de chiens et de chats, ce qui m’a permis de développer une véritable complicité avec eux. Je sais à quel point il peut être difficile de confier son compagnon à quelqu’un d’autre. C’est pourquoi je prends cette responsabilité très au sérieux. Avec moi, votre animal recevra toute l’attention, l’affection et les soins qu’il mérite. Vous pouvez avoir l’esprit tranquille : je prendrai soin de votre compagnon comme s’il faisait partie de ma propre famille. 🌸 Je suis également disponible pour m’occuper d’autres types d’animaux. Avec vos consignes et les informations nécessaires, je ferai toujours de mon mieux pour répondre à leurs besoins et assurer leur bien-être. Je dois toutefois avouer que j’ai moins d’expérience avec les oiseaux, les rongeurs et les reptiles. Cela dit, si vous prenez le temps de m’expliquer leurs besoins et votre routine, je serai ravie de m’en occuper avec attention. À la maison, les animaux font partie de mon quotidien! J’en ai plusieurs et je m’occupe aussi d’une colonie de chats. Vous pouvez donc avoir confiance : je suis habituée à prendre soin de nos amis à quatre pattes! Mon objectif est toujours le même : offrir une présence bienveillante, rassurante et des soins de qualité à votre compagnon, quel qu’il soit! 🐾 Hello! My name is Vanessa, and I speak both French and English. Feel free to contact me in whichever language you prefer! Animals have always been a big part of my life. I grew up surrounded by dogs and cats, which allowed me to build a strong bond with them from an early age. I know how difficult it can be to trust someone else with your beloved companion, and that's why I take that responsibility very seriously. With me, your pet will receive all the attention, affection, and care they deserve. You can have peace of mind knowing that I'll care for your companion as if they were part of my own family. 🌸 I'm also happy to care for other types of pets. As long as you provide me with their routine and any important instructions, I'll always do my best to meet their needs and ensure they're happy, healthy, and comfortable. I do have less experience with birds, rodents, and reptiles. That said, if you take the time to explain their care routine and specific needs, I'd be more than happy to look after them with the same dedication and attention. At home, animals are part of my everyday life! I have several pets of my own, and I also care for a colony of community cats. You can trust that I'm very comfortable caring for our four-legged friends and treating them with the love and respect they deserve! My goal is always the same: to provide kind, reliable, and high-quality care, giving your companion the love and reassurance they deserve, no matter what kind of pet they are. 🐾 Agente de bord, je bénéficie d’un horaire très flexible. Je ferai toujours de mon mieux pour m’adapter à vos disponibilités, et je suis convaincue que nous pourrons trouver un horaire qui nous conviendra à tous! Je suis ouverte aux demandes additionnelles : passer du temps avec vos compagnons, les surveiller dans la cour, promener votre chat, jouer avec eux… ect. Je propose des gardes à domicile ainsi que des sorties! Sachez que je prendrai soin de vos animaux comme vous le feriez vous-même à la maison, en respectant à la lettre vos règles et vos habitudes. Que vous préfériez laisser un bol de nourriture disponible toute la journée ou suivre un horaire précis pour les repas, je m’adapterai avec plaisir. Mon seul intérêt est le bien-être et le bonheur de vos animaux.

“Charlie had stayed with Anh and her family for 9 nights for the first time. Although he never stayed with non- family member before, I felt at ease and safe leaving Charlie with Anh. She took care as if he was her own. I received daily updates and photos of Charlie, including an overall summary of his time at the end of his boarding. Thank you Anh and your family for taking a good care of Charlie. I will definitely be using your services again.”
“Lin and Jing came to our rescue once again! Skylar is getting older and isn't as fond of road trips, especially when they involve camping in a damp tent. We realized we'd neglected to make arrangements for her, so we quickly turned to Rover and searched for Lin and Jing. Luckily, they had an opening for the weekend! It had been a while since Skylar had stayed with them and Tini, but as soon as we pulled into the driveway, she was thrilled. She ran straight for the front door, and I couldn't have been happier to see her so excited for her weekend away. Thank you for making Skylar feel right at home!”

“Un grand merci à cette pension pour animaux ! Ils ont vraiment pris soin de mon chien comme si c’était le leur. Mon chien ne comprend que le chinois, et ils ont même appris quelques mots en chinois juste pour mieux communiquer avec lui – j’ai trouvé ça vraiment génial ! Pendant tout son séjour, j’ai senti qu’il était entre de bonnes mains, ce qui m’a vraiment rassuré. Si vous cherchez un endroit où on prend vraiment soin de vos animaux, je vous les recommande à 100% !”

Cooper reviendra avec plaisir:)”

Nous la recommandons fortement et notre chien aussi! 🐾💕”

She really took good care of my dog Luna in every aspect, walking, playing, feeding and etc. Her children are fantastic and really love Luna like their own dog. They hug her, cuddle her and spend so much time playing with her. Soumaya also took pictures of Luna throughout the period and sent to us for updates, so that we can rest assured that Luna is in good hands. All in all, Soumaya is an excellent dog sitter; and together with her children, this just becomes a perfect winning team for any pet owners to trust and rely on.”
