“Charlie (my dog) and Chewy (Donny's dog) are now close friends! The entire experience from reception all the way to pick up was enjoyable. Donny and his wife were welcoming and considerate. 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.”
“Super gentil et très bon avec les chiens. Bonne intégration faite par les propriétaires avec les autres chiens. C’est évident qu’ils sont très connaissant. Je les recommande sans hesitation.”
“C'est en toute confiance que j'ai été reconduire mon chat Zak chez Cynthia. Il a été accueilli comme un roi dans une petite famille douce et aimante. Selon les photos que j'ai reçues durant mon voyage, Zak était bien à l'aise dans son environnement sécuritaire. De plus il recevait des câlins en masse. Bref, le séjour de Zak chez Cynthia a été un franc succès. Cynthia, une femme fort intelligente, adore les animaux. Elle sait rassurer le propriétaire dès le départ. Ainsi, jamais je n'ai été inquiète. Je la recommande hautement. Merci.”
“Un Super séjour pour Oka avec Geneviève! Tout s’est très bien passé, des nouvelles régulières avec des photos et vidéos ☺️ Merci pour ta confiance et aussi ta réactivité à répondre à nos besoins !”
“Merci encore pour votre temps avec mon chien. Je sais qu'il est bien traité avec vous, qu'il s'amuse et qu'il est en sécurité. Merci à tous les membres de la famille.”
“Do not hesitate!! I think Anh may be a dog whisperer! We have 2 wonderful but less-than-perfect dogs that have limited socalization with children OR other dogs (one small and growly and one big goofy rambunctious puppy). Anh has so much experience with dogs and such a calm, assuring presence that we (dogs and humans) were immediately at ease. The communication was also very reassuring. This experience was great for our dogs (they bonded with other dogs and felt safe with other humans) and we are thrilled to have found someone we trust. ❤️”
“Best dog sitter family for our Sky so far!! They took care of him as their own dog and Sky seemed pretty happy. We will definitely book again and recommend to our friends!!”
“Marina and her family took excellent care of our Freddie. Lots of love and care. Very responsive and attentive. I feel confident leaving my dog with Marina and her family, and we will definitely be relying on them in the future! Thank you Marina (Chloe and Eva too!)”
“Always a pleasure to leave our doggo with Steven- he's hands down the best sitter we've ever had and our dog absolitely loves to go to his place to hang out with him and other dogs! Thank you always :)”
“J’ai confié mon chien Néo à Allie pendant 5 jours et tout s’est parfaitement bien passé. J’ai reçu régulièrement des nouvelles avec des photos, ce qui est très rassurant. Néo a été chouchouté, a profité de belles balades et a pu bien se dépenser. On sent qu’elle aime vraiment les animaux et qu’elle s’en occupe avec attention. Je n’hésiterai pas à faire appel à ses services à nouveau. Je recommande sans hésitation !”
“Nous étions très nerveux à l’idée de laisser notre chien pour la première fois à des étrangers. Ils ont su nous rassurer et bien prendre soin de notre belle Maya.”
“Chanel has been an amazing sitter for our puppy Theo! She has been easy to communicate with from start to end, sending us daily pictures of him, which allowed us to travel with ease. I could not recommend a better puppy sitter!”
“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.”
“Nomida est une personne exceptionnelle, profondément attentionnée et digne d’une confiance absolue. Elle ne se contente pas de s’occuper d’eux, elle les aime sincèrement, comme s’ils faisaient partie de sa propre famille. Grâce à elle, je suis partie l’esprit tranquille, sachant que mes chiens sont non seulement en sécurité, mais entourés d’affection et d’attention. Elle est une personne pour qui j’éprouve une immense gratitude.”
“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 !!!!!!”
“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!”
“J’ai laissé Siam dans les mains de Marie-Anne pour un cours séjour hors du Québec et cela fut un plaisir! J’ai pu recevoir de nombreuses mises-à-jour sous forme de photos et de vidéos plusieurs fois par jours ainsi qu’un suivi détaillé de l’expérience de Siam, ce qui a pu me rassurer puisque c’était une première expérience pour nous. Je recommande fortement et merci encore pour ton service de qualité!! :) Je reviendrais sans hésiter!”
“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!”

“Anja clearly is an animal lover. She provided drop in visits for our cats. She regularly sent us photos and updates. She clearly played with them a bunch and even got our shy cat to allow some pets. We absolutely would use her services again.”
About: I have been surrounded by animals my entire life, especially dogs of all breeds and sizes. I grew up with dogs, and my family was also involved in dog breeding, which gave me a deep understanding of their care and behavior from an early age. I have volunteered with the SPCA and have extensive hands-on experience caring for both adult dogs and puppies. I truly love animals and treat each one as if they were my own. I would be happy to provide loving and responsible care for your furry family member! I work full-time but have a flexible schedule and can adjust to meet your needs. Whether it’s for walks, drop-ins, or overnight care, feel free to reach out—I’d be happy to work something out with you! You can relax knowing your pup is in safe, loving hands. With years of experience caring for dogs and puppies, I understand how to create a safe, calm, and happy environment. Your furry friend will be treated like family!
“Rojina is the best! She won the heart of my very shy cat right away and was able to pet him every time she visited. She is super reliable, I got photos and a report at each visit so I didn’t have to worry about anything. I would hire her again for sure!”
“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: Hi I am Stephy and I am a full time worker who is working from home. I would like to help you care about your pets when you are not available. I have the experience of walking dogs and feeding pets and cleaning cat litter. I am friendly and responsible, and have the patient to help and also train your cats, for example, I know how to train cats for "sit","paws","jump through hoops". I have plenty of leisure time after work and on weekends. I have one kitten at my home and I helped take care of 5 dogs for my neighbor in the past. Feel free to get in touch with me and let me know if you need any help for taking care of your babies. Hope to help you soon.
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 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: We've had 25 years of fun with our own dogs. I grew up around them as a kid, and I can't think of a time I have not been around them. We've raised them from puppies, and we've had some that have been rescued, but one thing is for sure is that we love them no matter where they're coming from. We would love to watch your pup, and have them hang out with our boy Hobbes. We have multiple parks around us, plenty of places to explore, and a great home to house them in. Let us know how we can be of service to you, and take care of your furry friend. We both work from home (Jonathan & Ashleigh) and our daughter (Kodee), have tons of flexibility, which gives us all plenty of opportunities to get out into the fresh air and explore. \\jonathan, ashleigh, et kodee Nous avons eu 25 ans de plaisir avec nos propres chiens. J'ai grandi avec eux quand j'étais enfant, et je ne peux pas penser à une époque où je n'ai pas été avec eux. Nous les avons élevés à partir de chiots, et certains d'entre eux ont été sauvés, mais une chose est sûre, c'est que nous les aimons peu importe d'où ils viennent. Nous serions ravis de regarder votre chiot et de le faire passer du temps avec notre pitou Hobbes. Nous avons plusieurs parcs autour de nous, de nombreux endroits à explorer et une belle maison pour les héberger. Faites-nous savoir comment nous pouvons vous être utiles et prendre soin de votre compagnon à quatre pattes. Nous travaillons tous les deux (Jonathan et Ashleigh) à domicile puis notre fille aussi (Kodee), avons une grande flexibilité, ce qui nous donne de nombreuses opportunités de sortir à l'air frais et d'explorer. Pet care fits naturally into our daily rhythm. Since we both work from home, we're able to give plenty of attention throughout the day...whether it’s a morning walk by the river, playtime in the afternoon, or a quiet cuddle in the evening. Our three teenagers are also involved and love spending time with animals, so there’s always someone ready for a walk, a game of fetch, or just to hang out and offer some affection. Caring for pets isn’t something we have to “make time” for it’s something we genuinely enjoy and have built into how our family lives day to day. Prendre soin des animaux fait naturellement partie de notre quotidien. Comme nous travaillons tous les deux de la maison, nous avons la chance d’être présents et disponibles tout au long de la journée. Que ce soit pour une marche matinale au bord du fleuve, un moment de jeu en après-midi, ou une séance de câlins tranquille en soirée, il y a toujours un moment pour leur accorder de l’attention. Nos trois ados participent aussi avec joie aux soins. Ils adorent passer du temps avec les animaux, donc il y a toujours quelqu’un prêt pour une balade, une partie de lancer de balle, ou juste pour donner un peu d’affection. Ce n’est pas quelque chose qu’on doit "planifier", c’est une partie naturelle et précieuse de notre mode de vie familial. Chez nous, on prend soin des chiens comme s’ils faisaient partie de la famille, parce que pendant qu’ils sont ici, c’est exactement ce qu’ils sont. À la maison, cela veut dire beaucoup d’amour, d’attention, et un environnement calme où votre chien peut se sentir en sécurité et pleinement accueilli. Les promenades, les jeux et les câlins font partie de notre routine. On fait aussi attention aux besoins particuliers de chaque animal, que ce soit pour des médicaments, un horaire de repas spécifique ou tout simplement un peu plus de douceur et de patience. Avec Hobbes, qui pesait 115 livres, c’était important pour nous qu’il soit bien éduqué, confiant et à l’aise dans différents environnements. Il devait pouvoir interagir doucement avec un tout-petit autant que marcher calmement à mes côtés. Cela fait longtemps que nous vivons aux côtés de ces compagnons à quatre pattes. Avec les années, on a appris à comprendre leur langage, à les observer, à bâtir une relation basée sur la confiance. Savoir comment les entraîner, comment bien communiquer avec eux, ça a changé et enrichi notre manière de vivre avec nos chiens. On croit beaucoup au renforcement positif, à la structure et à la douceur. Chaque chien est unique, et on prend le temps de s’adapter à ses besoins, pour qu’il se sente aimé, respecté et à sa place avec nous. Quand on prend soin d’un animal dans sa propre maison, on fait tout pour garder ses repères. On suit vos consignes avec attention, pour que votre chien se sente aussi bien que possible, dans un environnement familier, avec une présence calme et bienveillante. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> We care for pets like they’re part of the family, because while they’re with us, they are. In our home, that means lots of love, attention, and a calm environment where your dog can feel safe and included. Walks, playtime, and snuggles are all part of the routine. We’re mindful of each pet’s specific needs, whether it's medication, a certain feeding schedule, or just extra patience and space. With Hobbes, who was 115 pounds, it was important to make sure he could be out in the world and feel confident, calm, and well-behaved. He needed to be able to love on a toddler just as gently as he walked beside someone my size. We've been partnering with these four-legged companions for a long time. Over the years, we’ve learned how to read their behavior and respond in ways that build trust. Understanding how to train and communicate with them has helped us build deeper, healthier relationships with our pups. We believe in positive reinforcement, structure, and kindness. Every dog is different, and we take time to learn what works best for each one so they feel secure, loved, and at home with us. If we're caring for your pet in their own home, we work to keep their routine as familiar as possible. We follow your instructions closely and make sure your pup feels safe, respected, and cared for, wherever we are.
About: Je m’occupe de mes deux bassets à la maison, j’ai eu un élevage pendant deux ans où la femelle basset originaire de la Bretagne m’a fait une très belle portée dont les chiots étaient tous en santé. J’ai gardé le dernier chiot son nom est Rocky il est très gentil. Avec mes deux bassets, nous nous promenons deux fois par jour petite balade du matin et balade de l’après-midi on sort souvent pour des sorties d’une heure, dont le parc à chien où nous aimons vraiment beaucoup socialiser, et se défouler, nous aimons les autres amis, car nous sommes faits pour vivre en meute. Si je me déplace, j’effectue toujours une surveillance d’hygiène, nettoyage des pipis s’il y a lieu et remise en état de la pièce donner la nourriture, puis s’assurer qu’ils ont toujours de l’eau, jouer et aller dehors et faire les soins routine, lavage des oreilles, lavage des dents, lavage du poil, brosser le poil et s’assurer qu ils sont en pleine santé. Cela fait partie de ma routine avec mes deux chiens.
About: Ive taken care of cats of multilple breeds and ages for 20 years. I myself currently have 2 cat, i groom them both, and cut their claws. So i have lots of patience and understanding for your fur babies. With cats i prioritize space and respect for their territory. My strenght has always been in providing a mix of comfort for nervous cats by sitting with them and not crowding them, and fun distractions to get them out of their overthinking heads.
About: Ive been fortunate to have always been surrounded by dogs, cats, bunnies, and other animals at my parents rehabilitation center. I volunteered for the SPCA as a trained dog-walker for close to a decade and am unfazed by any behavioural /aggressive traits as I’ve fostered a range of rescues and owned seniors throughout my 20s. Please ask me any questions about the experience you’re searching for :) I’ve recently finished my graduate studies and work remotely part-time. My partner and I take care of our senior dog (12) so I am happy to house sit or provide drop ins/walks anytime. My schedule is flexible, let’s chat about what your and your pets’ needs are! Fenced in yard, spotless house so they won’t get into anything, and constant company :) I’m responsible but easy going, let me know your rules and I’ll follow them to keep your pet comfortable and on schedule
About: I’ve had cats as pets since I was 3 years old. I once had a mother-son duo to take care of that needed medical attention (both had pneumonia), so I am experienced in that aspect. I currently have two cats, Tom and Jerry. Tom is very affectionate while Jerry is aggressive and selfish, so I know how to care for either end of the spectrum and/or anywhere in between. Overall, I will love your cat(s) with whatever personality or mood they have and try my best to give them the utmost care that they deserve <3
“Sofia was amazing from the start. We were leaving for a one day trip and we couldn't bring our little Kyo (2 month kitty) that we only had for a week at this point with us. We contacted unfortunately Sofia quite late the night prior to our departure due to a change in our plans but she was very nice and understanding even at that time. All the time we were away she sent cute pictures of our cute boy and kept us updated. Amazing I tell you 💜 Thank you again for the wonderful service 😻”
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: 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.

“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.”
“Finnlay is a reactive rescue dog and yesterday was the 1st time he attended doggie daycare for 6 hours. I was nervous leaving him and how things would go but Steven put my mind at ease. I received a video and a photo of Finn. Steven even introduced Finn to his own dog and all went well. Finn is not keen on other dogs but it was all good. I was very impressed. I will book more time with Steven soon so Finn will feel comfortable when I eventually go away on vacation.”
“Gabriela & Phil were absolutely amazing taking care of my dog! Gabriela was very proactive in terms of communication and followed instructions very carefully. She sent me pictures during the day of my dog and took him for a walk. I would for sure trust Gabriela & Phil with my dog again :)”
“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. 😁”
“Une superbe belle journée pour Gucci! Très contente qu'il rencontre des nouveaux " amis " hehe a voir les vidéos il adore son nouvel ami Ulko!. Un gros merci encore une fois Hala de toujours me rassurer sur mon petit bb et veiller sur lui! Quand je dépose Gucci j'ai zéro crainte, continue ce que tu fais 🥰🤗”
About: I have loved and cared for animals since I was a child. Growing up, I had experience caring for many different kinds of animals, including cats, dogs, chickens, ducks, geese, silkworms, butterflies, ants, and mantises. Because of this, I learned early how to observe animals carefully, understand their needs, and be patient and gentle with different personalities. What sets me apart is my lifelong love for animals and my attention to detail. I understand that every pet has its own routine, comfort level, and personality. Some pets need space, some need extra attention, and some simply need a calm, clean, and safe environment. I’m happy to follow each owner’s instructions carefully and provide feeding, fresh water, playtime, litter box cleaning, walks, companionship, and photo updates. I will care for your pet with patience, respect, and genuine love, just like I would care for my own. I’m also very attentive to animal body language and behavior. I pay close attention to their signals, habits, comfort level, and boundaries. I understand that animals communicate in subtle ways, through posture, movement, sounds, energy, and routine changes. This helps me respond gently and appropriately, whether a pet needs space, reassurance, playtime, or extra care. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I spend a lot of time at home and can provide regular attention throughout the day. I’m available for feeding, fresh water, playtime, litter box cleaning, photo updates, and gentle companionship. I’m also flexible with each pet’s routine and will follow the owner’s instructions carefully. In my home, I provide a calm, clean, and cat-friendly environment. We have experience caring for cats, and our home has litter boxes, cat toys, scratching posts, cat trees, cozy resting areas, and food and water bowls. I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and respected. I understand that every pet has a different personality, so I give shy cats space and offer attention to cats who enjoy company. I keep the litter area clean, follow feeding instructions carefully, and send photo updates so owners can feel reassured while they are away. In a client’s home, I will respect their space, follow their instructions, keep everything tidy, and make sure their pet has fresh water, food, a clean litter box, and calm companionship.
“Une expérience très agréable pour Maple et une grande tranquillité d'esprit pour nous. Merci pour votre communication constante, les photos, la charmante compagnie de ses petits chiens et surtout pour les excellents soins prodigués à notre chien. Je suis heureuse d'avoir trouvé une personne aussi dévouée et attentionnée que Cinthia. Merci d'avoir accueilli Maple.”
About: Les chiens ont toujours occupé une grande place dans nos vies. On a tous les deux grandi avec eux et on a adoré chaque instant. Au fil des années, on a partagé notre maison avec un basset hound, un bouvier bernois, un toy poodle, un carlin et un berger de pologne, et on les a tous entraînés nous-mêmes. Chacun avait sa propre personnalité et son propre tempérament, et chacun nous a appris quelque chose de nouveau ! On est un couple actif et on adore vraiment emmener les chiens en course ou en longue balade. On n'a pas de chien à la maison en ce moment, alors honnêtement, ce serait un vrai plaisir de se balader et de courir avec le vôtre. Que votre chien soit du genre canapé ou débordant d'énergie, on s'adaptera à son rythme et à son style. Dogs have always been a big part of our lives. We both grew up with them and loved every moment of it. Over the years, we've shared our home with a basset hound, a bernese mountain dog, a toy poodle, a pug, and a polish lowland sheepdog, and trained them all ourselves. Each one had their own personality and temperament, and each one taught us something new! We're an active couple and genuinely love bringing dogs along for runs or long walks. We currently don't have a dog at home, so honestly, it would be such a pleasure to go on walks and runs with yours. Whether your pup is a couch potato or a bundle of energy, we will adapt and match their style. On travaille tous les deux de la maison la plupart du temps, ce qui nous donne une belle flexibilité dans nos journées. On peut facilement intégrer des visites et des promenades à notre routine, sans que ça soit fait à la va-vite. Que ce soit une balade le matin, un check-in en milieu de journée ou une visite en après-midi, on s'adapte à l'horaire de votre animal. We both work from home most days, which means our days are pretty flexible. We can easily fit drop-in visits and dog walks into our routine without it feeling rushed. Whether it's a morning walk, a midday check-in, or an afternoon visit, we're able to adapt to your pet's schedule rather than the other way around! Quand on se rend chez vous, notre priorité c'est que votre animal se sente en sécurité et à l'aise dans son propre espace. On sait que les animaux sont toujours plus détendus dans un environnement familier, alors on respecte leurs routines, leurs habitudes, et on prend le temps de laisser les animaux plus timides ou nerveux apprivoiser notre présence à leur propre rythme. Pour les promenades, on reste attentifs en tout temps. On observe le langage corporel, on reste dans des zones sécuritaires et on s'assure que chaque sortie soit une belle expérience pour votre chien. Votre maison et votre animal sont entre des mains attentionnées et bienveillantes ! When we come to your home, our priority is making sure your pet feels safe and comfortable in their own space. We know that animals are always more relaxed in a familiar environment, so we follow their routines, respect their habits, and take the time to let shy or nervous pets warm up to us at their own pace. For dog walks, we stay attentive at all times. We keep an eye on body language, stay in safe areas, and make sure every outing is a good experience for your pup. Your home and your pet are in careful, caring hands!
“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.”
“I feel so comfortable leaving my puppy with Sarah because i know that she is in great hands. Sarah is so caring makes sure to keep me updated throughout the day! I highly recommend bringing your pup to doggy daycare with Sarah :)”
“Laila did a great job looking after Minnie. I had never used Rover before so this was a fantastic first experience. Laila was communicative, provided updates and a video of Minnie. Minnie’s stay was for a day and Laila’s fee was very reasonable. If I visit Montréal again with my dog I will definitely use Laila again.”
“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.”
“Mobin was the best sitter I’d had for Charlie. He was extremely loving and I could tell Charlie had grown fond of him in just half a day. He followed all instructions I had provided. He accommodated me last minute too, which I am so grateful for. Highly, highly recommend.”
“Pedro, and his wife, took excellent care of my dog during the day for a few days after he had his castration surgery and had to stay quiet. They are very nice people, they kept me up to date with how he was doing and even gave me a few tips to help with his pulling while on leash walks...and it's helping! They are excellent with dogs. I would certainly look to book with them if I need dog related services in the future.”
“Hannah and Pavlos took great care of Hugo. They were both very friendly. Communication was easy. They sent me daily updates and photos. Would highly recommend them”
“Chris took such good care of my dog, I couldn’t be happier! I also really appreciated his communication and updates throughout the day. All around an amazing experience for both me and my puppy! Will definitely be booking again.”

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.

About: I’ve had cats and kittens all the time since I was 3 years old, along with other pets, including rabbits and chicks. My parents had a house in the mountains. Whenever we visited over the summer, I used to take care of my neighbor’s dog. It was always a thrill taking her for a walk every day. If she ever runs away from home, I would go after her and make sure she was okay before taking her back to her owners. Animals warm up to me, and I am very fond of them. I hope to be a veterinarian someday. The wellbeing and happiness of animals is very important to me. Seeing them well taken care of brings me joy and comfort, and it would be an honor to provide that care. I recently graduated from dawson college, and I started my first semester at Concordia this fall. I should be available any day, any time, since the majority of my classes this semester are online. I would rather take care of your pet in your home. I am very trustworthy, so you don’t need to worry about your belongings while I’m at your place. I will only be inside for the duration needed to get the job done. I will document my time with your pet so your mind is at ease <3
“Valérie est très attentive au besoins de mon chien. Je suis surpris à la vitesse quelle est capable de connecter et créer un lien en si peu de temps. J’ai amplement confiance en Valérie de la sécurité de mon chien”

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.
About: Hi I am Stephy and I am a full time worker who is working from home. I would like to help you care about your pets when you are not available. I have the experience of walking dogs and feeding pets and cleaning cat litter. I am friendly and responsible, and have the patient to help and also train your cats, for example, I know how to train cats for "sit","paws","jump through hoops". I have plenty of leisure time after work and on weekends. I have one kitten at my home and I helped take care of 5 dogs for my neighbor in the past. Feel free to get in touch with me and let me know if you need any help for taking care of your babies. Hope to help you soon.
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: 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: Je m’occupe de mes deux bassets à la maison, j’ai eu un élevage pendant deux ans où la femelle basset originaire de la Bretagne m’a fait une très belle portée dont les chiots étaient tous en santé. J’ai gardé le dernier chiot son nom est Rocky il est très gentil. Avec mes deux bassets, nous nous promenons deux fois par jour petite balade du matin et balade de l’après-midi on sort souvent pour des sorties d’une heure, dont le parc à chien où nous aimons vraiment beaucoup socialiser, et se défouler, nous aimons les autres amis, car nous sommes faits pour vivre en meute. Si je me déplace, j’effectue toujours une surveillance d’hygiène, nettoyage des pipis s’il y a lieu et remise en état de la pièce donner la nourriture, puis s’assurer qu’ils ont toujours de l’eau, jouer et aller dehors et faire les soins routine, lavage des oreilles, lavage des dents, lavage du poil, brosser le poil et s’assurer qu ils sont en pleine santé. Cela fait partie de ma routine avec mes deux chiens.
“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: 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: I’ve babysat/taken care of animals for as long as I can remember. I am an avid animal lover and I’ve volunteered and countless animal shelters. Fun fact: I’ve trained my cat to sit! I currently study part-time and work at home so I can easily stay home most of the time to take care and look after your pets! I have cat and dog toys as well as easy access to a large yard outside my home. I aim to play a lot with dogs and make sure they get enough exercise as well as with cats.

“Un Super séjour pour Oka avec Geneviève! Tout s’est très bien passé, des nouvelles régulières avec des photos et vidéos ☺️ Merci pour ta confiance et aussi ta réactivité à répondre à nos besoins !”
“Do not hesitate!! I think Anh may be a dog whisperer! We have 2 wonderful but less-than-perfect dogs that have limited socalization with children OR other dogs (one small and growly and one big goofy rambunctious puppy). Anh has so much experience with dogs and such a calm, assuring presence that we (dogs and humans) were immediately at ease. The communication was also very reassuring. This experience was great for our dogs (they bonded with other dogs and felt safe with other humans) and we are thrilled to have found someone we trust. ❤️”
