“Anh and her family treated our dogs like they were their own dogs. Ryder and Daisygirl were so well taken care of while we were away. They sent us pictures of them everyday and that helped us to know that my babies were doing ok. Anh was very responsive so definitely there was no lack of communication there. My babies loved them, especially their son and their very chill and gentle dog Kind. We will definitely book with them again in the future! Thank you for watching our babies so well Anh and family!”
“Our Buddy had the time of his life with this wonderful family and all the other furry friends! Thank you so much for sending photos throughout his entire stay with you. It made our vacation so relaxing knowing Buddy was with you and so very well taken care of. Your family is amazing and trustworthy. We highly recommend this family to take care of your pet. Mil merci !”
“Claudine was everything you would want from a professional and an absolute dog lover. This being our first time with this service, she was great at putting us at ease with everything. She took wonderful care of our Kiba and we received so many wonderful updates that we felt like we weren’t apart from Kiba. Claudine’s care of kiba was 2nd to none. She was gentle with Kiba when he felt a little homesick and always kept his spirits high with wonderful walks and plays. I absolutely recommend Claudine 100% and will definitely be the first call I make when we need a sitter again. Thank you so much Claudine!!! :)”
“What an amazing family! They were so good to Apollo. Loads of walks and sent me lovely pictures every day. A great backyard to play in as well! They accommodated me when my plane was late and I had to pick up really late. Apollo loved this family and had a brilliant time.”
“Carlos and is family took really good care of Eevee even if she started to have a cough while with them. They keeped me posted on how she was and send me photos regularly. Since Eevee loves kids and cuddles she was at the right place ! Thanks again Carlos and family 🤗”
“Lin, Jing & Tini were fantastic hosts. As this was our first time leaving Skylar with a sitter, i will admit i had my reservations. But we’re so glad that Skylar was accepted. She had a wonderful time running through our host’s backyard snow maze with her new friend Tini. Our hosts were great with communicating updates and very easy to work with. So glad Skylar was in such good hands.”
“I highly recommend Joni as a dog sitter! She has looked after my little Ruby and is very caring and attentive. She sends photos of the day’s various activities and cuddles, which is always appreciated. In short, you can leave your beloved pet with Joni and have complete confidence that she or he is in very good hands.”
“Janice met Joy and I knew right away that I could trust Janice to take care of Joy when I was on vacation. It was clear from Joy reaction and from the way she engages and make sure no detail was overlooked, that Janice love dogs. It was reassuring to received regularly news photos, to let me know that Joy was well and happy. I will not hesitate to reserve again. Thank you so much”

The were responsive and communicative throughout the entire procss. We were constantly updated with Charlie's status. They were also flexible with our timing. I will definitely use their services in the future.”
“I was very reluctant to leave my dog with a dog sitter as it was my first time that I travelled on vacation without my dog. Carolina & Francisco made it very seamlessly for me and I was able to enjoy my vacation with my mind at ease. They took very good care of my fur friend, he was very happy to be there. They kept me up to date on how he was doing, their level of communication is highly impeccable and flawless. I won’t hesitate to contact them again if I need a sitter for my dog and I’ll definitely highly recommend them if I know of anyone that would be in need of their service. Thank you once Carolina & Francisco.”

“Laila was wonderful!!! She picked up ralph from our venue on my wedding day, took care of him and brought him. Safely home. Additionally, she was flexible as we ran a bit late in the ceremony and adjusted. She is a pearl, very responsive, understanding and kind. There was a lot of moving parts in our wedding plan and because of her I didn't have to worry about it and it was stress-free. Thank you for that and taking care of Ralph.”
“Sarah et Jonathan ont été incroyables avec Cooper. On a tout de suite senti qu’il était entre bonnes mains. Ils nous ont donné des nouvelles régulièrement, avec des photos, et Cooper avait l’air super heureux tout le long de son séjour. On est revenus retrouver un chien détendu, bien dépensé et clairement très bien traité. Ça paraît qu’ils aiment vraiment les chiens et qu’ils prennent ça à cœur. Merci encore à vous deux. Cooper reviendra avec plaisir:)”

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.
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: 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.
“Pamela did a great job of taking care of my cat Loki while I was on vacation for two weeks. She sent pictures at every visit and let me know immediately when she saw that a plant had been knocked over and Loki had a hairball. Would definitely recommend and will trust Pamela with my pets again soon.”
“Lisette a été une gardienne exceptionnelle. Elle a pris soin de Jonesy avec beaucoup de douceur et générosité. Elle me donnait des nouvelles et photos. La maison était impeccable lorsque nous sommes rentrés. Je vais faire à nouveau appel à ses services avec une grande joie et confiance.”
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 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'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 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 :)

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.
About: It's more than just experience—it's heart. With 10+ years of caring for animals and living alone, your pets become my full focus and cherished companions. I don’t just offer pet care; I offer a home away from home, filled with attention, love, and personalized care that goes beyond the basics. Every pet is treated like family! My schedule is very flexible, as I work from home part-time and have plenty of free time to dedicate to caring for your pets. This means I’m able to offer personalized attention throughout the day, whether it's for walks, playtime, or simply keeping your pet company. I can easily accommodate last-minute bookings and adapt to your pet’s routine, ensuring they get the care and love they need, whenever they need it. Your pet will never feel neglected, as I’m always around to provide comfort and attention. I provide all types of care for pets, whether in my home or at my clients' homes. From feeding and walking to playtime and medication administration, I make sure every pet feels safe and comfortable. I'm experienced with a wide range of animals, including more difficult or special-needs pets, and I'm comfortable adjusting to each pet’s unique personality and requirements. Whether your pet needs extra attention, specific routines, or just some love while you’re away, I’m here to make sure they are well cared for in any environment.
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.

“Encore une fois, Bookiebest revenu fatigué et heureux d'avoir joué avec Russell et les chiens sous sa garde. Il est revenu très propre et il n'a jamais été malade, contrairement à parfois quand il revient de chez d'autres gardiens. On reviendra souvent chez Russell. 😁”
“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.”

“This was a wonderful first experience for Leia. As first-time users, we really appreciated receiving photos and updates - it gave us peace of mind knowing she was in a loving home and being so well cared for. Thank you, Anh and Quang!”
“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!”
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 for doing such a great job caring for my frenchbulldog Luigi, he had an amazing time, especially with how tired and happy he looked! It put my mind at ease knowing he was in such good care."”
“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.”
“Melissa saved my bacon. My poor 3 month old puppy wasn't keen to be left in a new place, and she did everything to reassure her, kept in touch with me in a reassuring and helpful way. I already had confidence in her from a first shorter visit, but that confidence has been quadrupled after today! Thanks Melissa.”
About: I've been surrounded by animals my entire life. Since I was little, pets have always been part of my family. My first adopted dog, Indy, has been with me for over 10 years and taught me the true meaning of loyalty, care, and love. I have an endless love for animals and always treat them as if they were my own. ❤️ I’m available every day and can easily adapt to your pet’s routine. Whether it’s morning walks, midday check-ins or evening playtime, I have a flexible schedule and can fully commit to their care. Pets in my care will be treated with love, patience, and full attention. I have the possibility to welcome them into my home, which is a safe, calm, and pet-friendly environment. Whether your pet stays with me or I go to your place, I always prioritize their comfort and emotional well-being. I follow instructions carefully and adapt to each pet’s personality and needs to make them feel secure and loved. 🚗 I also offer pick-up and drop-off for pets! Rates vary depending on distance: • $5-10 within Beauharnois or nearby areas (Châteauguay, Valleyfield). •$12–20 for longer distances (e.g., Montréal or up to 40–50 km or more). Feel free to ask for an exact quote based on your location 💕
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.
“Graeme and Vicky are so great with Cocoa. I know when I leave my dog with them he will have a happy, enriching day. It really helps Cocoa to be with them and their dogs. He's calmer and better behaved because of all the activities and experiences he has with them. I can't recommend them enough!”
About: Hello everyone! I've always been a passionate animal lover. Growing up, I was surrounded by pets; I had a parrot, 2 cats, and a dog, and they taught me what unconditional love looks like. I have more than 16 years of experience caring for dogs, and I offer basic training with treats (sit/down/stay/come). A walk in the park is therapeutic, especially with a buddy by my side I truly cherish time spent with pets and am inspired by their perspective. To me, happiness is cuddles and long walks with a wagging tail beside me. Pets understand us like no one else does, and that bond means the world to me. The connection between pets and people never stops amazing me, I can't get enough of it. My curiosity drives me to understand each pet individually, so I can care for them in the way that suits them best. I promise your buddy will be loved, well cared for, and always excited to come back to me! :) I work from home, I am pretty flexible. I take breaks to go to the park on lunch and evening, I would love to have some company! I am observative and attentive to pets needs, I walk and feed pets on time and they're always happy to see me again! We become good friends :)
“Feeling grateful for the amazing care my dog gets while I’m at work! Ace receives the full VIP treatment — lounging on the sofa, gazing out the window, getting spoiled with pets, and staying happily entertained. I always come home to a calm, content, tail‑wagging dog, and it makes such a difference. Couldn’t ask for better care! 🐶❤️”
“Maki was wonderful - our Lily was right at home (so much so she didn’t rush to leave when picked up). Great communication, transparency and updates throughout the day. Would highly recommend!!”

About: I’ve had a border collie and three cats ever since I was a kid I’ve taken care of them ever since. I’m gentle and loving with every animal I encounter. I tend to connect well with other people‘s pets. I hope I get to meet your dog or cat soon! I work part-time at an old age, Home and my schedule alternates per week. If I’m working Saturday and Sunday on one week, I won’t be working Saturday and Sunday the next. I will send you my schedule if asked! If I am taking care of your pet in your home, I will follow everything that is asked of me to ensure your comfort and safety. Just let me know if you have any special requests.
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!
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.
“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.”
About: I have taken care of dogs, bunnies, cats, for 10+ years. My strength has been in caring for animals with anxiety, nervousness, or shyness, and bringing them comfort and a positive environment. I am very good at reinforcing training for the young ones to provide them consistency and stability in their routine. I am gifted in reading animals and having a lot of patience, and a great passion for them. This allows me to connect with them really effectively and be able to create a safe and loving experience for your fur babies! Pet care fits really naturally into my routine. I work full‑time as an operations manager from home, which gives me a lot of flexibility during the day for walks, check‑ins, playtime, and just being present. I’m not rushing in and out between commitments—your pet gets real attention worked into my day, not squeezed in as an afterthought. I used to dog sit in my own home and absolutely loved it, but after moving, my landlord no longer allows pets. Continuing to care for animals in clients’ homes is my way of keeping that connection I genuinely miss. Spending time with pets is something I want to do, not just something I’m fitting in. Because my schedule is flexible, I can adapt to your pet’s needs—whether that’s midday walks, medication timing, extra companionship during the workday, or sticking closely to an established routine. It ends up feeling very natural and consistent for them, which I know makes a big difference. For me, pet care is a grounding, enjoyable part of my week—and for your pet, it means calm, reliable care from someone who truly enjoys being there! When I care for pets in your home, I treat it like it’s their space and their routine, not just a place I’m visiting. I stick closely to your instructions—feeding schedules, walk times, meds, house rules—so everything feels as normal as possible for them. I make sure they get plenty of attention, play, and comfort, whether that means active time or just being a calm, reassuring presence nearby. I’m respectful of your home, keep things clean and tidy, and always prioritize safety (doors secure, leashes on, food stored properly). I also love sending updates and photos so you can see how your pet is doing and feel totally at ease while you’re away. My goal is simple: your pet feels relaxed and well cared for, and you come home to a happy animal and a home just the way you left it.
“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! ?”
“She is amazing and reliable Great with our dog hé trusted her She exudes calm energy that allowed our GSD to trust and feel comfortable Maddisson took the time to understand his demeanor and showed so much care Amazing communication! We love her and will continue to work with her ❤️🐾”
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! I am very open to any dog or cat. I have the space for them to run and love to take runs and jogs with them!II have a large backyard . I am Very calming, affectionate and will watch your dog like it was mine. I love to take care of them on my free time and will respect the procedures asked! Very happy to take care of one of your special ones! Any specific information you may tell me and I will work accordingly! My mother is also often at home to watch after them when I am gone ! They are never left alone!! Have a nice day hope to hear from you! I have free time at the moment. When I am not available I have a mother that is on Rover as well. She takes good care of them during my absence. I have a fenced back yard. It is very safe and a large amount of place for the dog. I always have the dog on leash when out. I have a large family so the dog will always have a homie.
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: I have had pets since childhood, I have had dogs, cats, ducks, sheep, parrots and I know how to take care of them well. Even now, I have two dogs, very active and healthy, who have been with me since they were two months old, one is 12 years old and the other is 9 years old Every day and every night on all days of the week on all official and unofficial holidays and weekends To walk, maintain and feed I'm ready Because I love animals and I have had many animals myself and I know how much animal owners depend on their animals and how important and serious it is for them to take care of them, so I will take care of them in the best possible way.
About: What sets me apart is the calm, attentive environment I provide. I grew up in a home that regularly rescued and fostered dogs, so caring for different personalities, energy levels, and behavioral needs has always been part of my life. We always had at least two dogs in the house at a time, and I’ve continued that into adulthood with my own rescues - Rose, who I’ve had since she was 1 (now 14), and Baby, who has been with me for 6 years. I’m often told I have a calm, easy energy that dogs naturally trust. I’m especially patient and understanding with anxious dogs and behavioral sensitivities, while still creating a relaxed and stable environment. I work from home, so dogs are never left unsupervised and always have consistent attention, care, and companionship throughout the day. My home is cozy, calm, and dog-focused, with a large fenced backyard for fetch, sunbathing, and safe outdoor time. I treat every dog like they’re my own and prioritize making them feel secure, comfortable, and cared for while they’re with me. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine because I work from home and already structure my days around caring for animals. My own dogs are a huge part of my everyday life, so walks, outdoor time, feeding schedules, play, cuddles, and supervision are already built into my routine. I’m home often throughout the day, which allows me to give pets consistent attention, companionship, and care rather than leaving them alone for long periods. I genuinely enjoy creating a calm, cozy environment where animals can relax, feel safe, and settle into a comfortable rhythm. Weekly, I prioritize keeping a clean and pet-friendly home and making sure animals get both mental stimulation and downtime depending on their personality and needs. Whether a pet is energetic and playful or more anxious and reserved, I’m attentive to helping them feel comfortable and cared for while they’re with me. Safety is always my top priority when caring for dogs in my home. I have two friendly rescue dogs who are calm, social, and well accustomed to sharing space with other animals. I always prioritize slow, respectful introductions and pay close attention to each dog’s comfort level, personality, and boundaries. I provide a calm, structured environment where dogs are supervised closely and never left unattended outdoors. My home is ground level and has a large fenced backyard for safe outdoor time, fetch, bathroom breaks, and relaxing in the sun, and all yard time is monitored. Inside the home, I use tools like baby gates when needed to create separate spaces for rest, decompression, feeding, or quieter introductions. Because I work from home, I’m present throughout the day to supervise interactions, maintain routines, and make sure every dog feels safe, comfortable, and cared for. My goal is always to create a cozy, low-stress environment where dogs can settle in comfortably and feel at home.
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.

“Anh and her family treated our dogs like they were their own dogs. Ryder and Daisygirl were so well taken care of while we were away. They sent us pictures of them everyday and that helped us to know that my babies were doing ok. Anh was very responsive so definitely there was no lack of communication there. My babies loved them, especially their son and their very chill and gentle dog Kind. We will definitely book with them again in the future! Thank you for watching our babies so well Anh and family!”

La communication a été très bien. Je les recommande fortement.”
“We had a wonderful experience with Danii! She accepted our dog on very short notice, which was such a huge help for us. From the very beginning, she was incredibly polite, kind, and easy to communicate with. She even offered to pick up our dog since we were a bit far away — such a thoughtful and generous gesture. Danii was so sweet and caring throughout the entire stay. Our dog was clearly well taken care of, and when we came to pick him up, he was so happy and comfortable that he didn’t even want to leave her place! It gave us so much peace of mind knowing he was in such good hands. We’re really grateful for Danii’s help and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a loving and trustworthy dog sitter.”
