“Such a lovely family! Pogo was so lucky to stay with Anh and Quang and their sweet dog Kind. From the moment we met them, we felt totally at ease, they were kind, patient, and so loving with her. Their little one was also incredibly gentle, which meant a lot to us. We got daily photos, videos, and updates, and it was clear Pogo was having the best time and felt right at home. It honestly made being away so much easier knowing she was so well cared for. We will absolutely book with them again and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to anyone looking for amazing sitters!

“Nancy et Maxime ont gardé nos deux chiens pendant notre voyage au Mexique du 6 au 22 février 2026 et nous sommes vraiment reconnaissants pour les bons soins qu’ils leur ont apportés. Ils ont été attentionnés, bienveillants et très gentils avec nos chiens. Nous avons senti qu’ils prenaient leur bien-être à cœur. Pendant notre absence, nous avons aussi reçu des nouvelles ainsi que des photos d’elles, ce qui nous a énormément rassurés et fait très plaisir. Partir aussi longtemps est toujours un peu stressant quand on laisse ses animaux, mais savoir qu’elles étaient entre de bonnes mains nous a permis de profiter de notre voyage l’esprit tranquille. Un grand merci à Nancy et Maxime pour leur accueil et leur attention envers nos chiens. Nous n’hésiterions pas à leur faire confiance de nouveau.”
“Je suis très reconnaissant à Viviane et à toute sa petite famille d'avoir gardé Bentley pendant mon absence. J’ai apprécié les photos et les nouvelles quotidiennes et sincères sur la façon dont Bentley s'adaptait, car il a tendance à être un chien plutôt anxieux. Très vite, il s'est senti à l'aise avec la famille. Merci Viviane et la famille pour votre patience et vos efforts pour encourager Bentley de manière positive afin que cette expérience soit agréable pour lui. On voit bien que vous aimez vraiment les animaux !”
“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!”
“Carlos & his family were so accommodating and thoughtful in taking care of Seven while we were away. He was extremely responsive, sent updates throughout her stay, was reassuring and had everything under control making our time away so much more enjoyable knowing she was in great hands. They are genuine dog people, with great experience, I would without hesitation recommend them to anyone considering a dog sitter. Thank you Carlos for everything! We will indeed book again.”
“Thor and I would definitely recommend Corina (and her friendly pup Dex as well!). She did everything to ensure that Thor was comfortable and felt secure, even letting him sleep in her bed! She sent me updates to let me know how he was doing, which was appreciated. We will book with her again! Thank you so much Corina for taking such excellent care of Thor!”
“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.”
“Christina's like a dog behaviorist! She was able perfectly calm & attend to Chikko's needs. She updated me woth photos & videos of our Chikko everytime whenever needed. She also treated Chikko as her own. She ensures that your pet has enough walks and knows exactly what your pet needs. Christina is a blessing!”
“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!”
“Louisa is one in a million! Best dog sitter I have ever booked for Sherlock. She provides a loving home, care and is the most amazing fur auntie I ever could have hoped for. Sherlock is happy and not upset or stressed in going to her for the 2nd time. Dogs know who they love and accept and how they will be treated and they show that with their nature. Thank you Louisa for take such good care and for loving Sherlock and for the daily pictures and videos.”
“We love her. She gained my dog’s attention and trust easily. She send us pictures, videos and updates frequently without asking for them; she spoils our dog and our dog was happy and loved!! 🤩 very grateful, totally recommend it. This was our first time and definitely we will come back!!”
“Mon expérience avec le service de garde de Sally pour mon chien Nico a été excellente. Dès notre premier contact, j’ai senti que mon Nico serait entre de très bonnes mains. Sally a été très attentionnée, fiable et semble réellement passionnée par les animaux, elle-même ayant deux beaux petits chiens, Bleue et Nina. Pendant toute la durée de la garde, j’ai reçu des nouvelles régulières accompagnées de photos, ce qui m’a énormément rassurée. Mon Nico est revenu à la maison heureux, détendu et clairement bien traité. Je recommande les services de Sally sans hésitation. Merci Sally et à la semaine prochaine !”

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: **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.
About: I've had cats all my life, I was born and my family got a cat at the same time, Mozart. I've always had cats growing up and it was my job to take care of their needs as a responsibility and also as I loved doing it! I have as of the moment 2 cats.
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'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: Since childhood, I’ve been taking care of my neighbors’ cats while they were on vacation, whether it was feeding them, playing with them, or simply keeping them company. Today, I’m the proud parent of two energetic Bengals—they even have their own cat wheel to burn off energy! I’ve also raised a litter of kittens, which helped me understand the needs of cats at every stage of their lives. From active play sessions to calm, relaxing moments, I know how to give each cat the attention it deserves.
About: I have been around and taken care of many family and friends pets, on occasion, throughout my life. I just recently officially introduced myself to the pet owner life. No matter the personality or energy level of your pet I am ready to be there and take care. I mainly work as an actor. This means that most of the time I have off unless I have a role. Due to the fact that my availability is completely open most of time and I am not fixed to a weekly schedule, I am able to offer my services any time. Even last minute. The owner would be fully aware of anything I can/will do. I am there to not only take care of your pet but also your home.
About: I believe animals are always communicating with us, and I approach pet care by listening first and responding with patience and care. I have 12 years of experience with my own dog and have worked through reactivity, anxiety, fear of noises, and leash pulling using positive reinforcement. I have worked with multiple trainers over the years and have spent a lot of time learning about dog behaviour and psychology, which has shaped how I care for animals today. I pay close attention to body language and subtle cues like freezing, yawning, or disengaging. When a dog seems overwhelmed, I focus on helping them feel safe and settled by creating space, choosing calmer routes or environments, or redirecting them toward something grounding. With shy or nervous dogs, I always let them approach on their own terms and give them the freedom to take breaks or step away when needed. I also believe in balancing physical and mental stimulation. Along with fulfilling walks, I enjoy incorporating enrichment like sniffing games, confidence-building activities, and gentle training. These activities work well for high-energy dogs and can also help more nervous or shy dogs feel comfortable and confident. I have experience caring for large and small dogs, puppies, and senior dogs, as well as administering medication including pills, liquids, topical treatments, and ear drops. I am very comfortable following vet instructions and care routines, and I tend to be very organized and attentive to detail. Above all, I genuinely care about each animal’s wellbeing and individuality. I use patience, positive reinforcement, and observation as the foundation of my care, and I always do my best to make sure every pet feels safe, understood, and cared for. I’m currently a work-from-home professional so I am quite flexible time and space wise. I am available at virtually any time and can readily offer overnight care in your home while you’re away. With a persistent attention to detail, I frequently look out for when an animal is trying to communicate a need, such as them wanting water, to play, to eat, to be pet, etc. I always ensure they have fresh, clean water and that they are fed the appropriate amount and on time. I also like to spend quality time with them giving them belly rubs and and behind-the-ear scratches. I also look out for their safety by keeping things that might be dangerous out of reach as well as checking in on them frequently to make sure they are doing well :)
About: I 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: 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: (Je parle français aussi) Hi there! Nice to meet you. I have taken care of dogs for over 5 years. Dogs have always been a part of my family. They are truly members of our family and I will treat your animal(s) as though they were my own. I am well experienced with puppies, dogs and senior animals. I understand how important it is to have proper training and a consistent routine! Please let me know if you have any question, it would be my pleasure to answer them!😊 References available upon request. I am currently a teacher. I also work as a behavioural therapist with special needs clients. My schedule allows me to be very flexible to play with your doggies! Please message me directly, as I have lots of times available depending on your schedule. Please send me a message and we can always work something out! I will follow your instructions for your fur babies needs. I am not currently accepting dogs at my house, however I can take your fur baby out for walks, to dog parks etc.

“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. 😁”

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 💕
“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.”
“Choosing a dog sitter for your furry friend can be nerve-wracking, especially when your dog, like my 80lb Weimaraner, has specific needs such as separation anxiety and lots of energy to spend. Anh was able to accommodate my dog-sitting needs at the last minute which was truly helpful. What truly sets her apart is her absolute commitment to the dog's well-being. From the moment I dropped my dog at her place, she put emphasis on making him feel comfortable. Her gentle and well-trained 8-year-old dog set a calm and welcoming mood, helping my dog relax and acclimate almost instantly. She made me feel comfortable caring for Taffy, showcasing her previous experience handling big breeds, making me comfortable leaving Taffy under her care. She is incredibly attentive and provides regular feedback in the form of messages and photos, updating me on his behavior, mood, and activities, which provided incredible peace of mind. This wasn't just a quick check-in; it was insightful communication that showed how closely she was observing and caring for him. I can confidently say that booking with Anh was the best choice. If you are looking for a dog sitter who treats your dog like their own and provides professional, customized care—even for the biggest of pups—I wholeheartedly recommend her services.”
“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!”
“Carolina is such a nice person, Gucci loved his stay and he played and enjoyed so much his long day with Carolina. She always kept me up to date with information and pictures!”
“Graeme & Vicky werr able to accommodate my last minute booking which I really appreciated. Graeme welcomed my puppy Toby as if he were part of the family. My pup played all day in their spacious and secure garden, which he enjoyed. I received picture updates of him playing with his new friends. I would 100% recommend Graeme & Vicky and I'm already doing a rebook. Thanks guys!”
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.
“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 leave my high energy pup with Pamela a few days a month due to work and know my pup is not only well taken care of but also having a great time. It gives me such peace of mind.”
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.
“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.”
“Alessia & Giovanni were great! We needed some day-sitting and luckily they were able to accommodate our last minute request. Lexi was always excited to go over in the morning so we know she loved hanging out with them during the day. We will definitely use them again!”
“We're thrilled to have found Barkha and Pranay! They met our elderly dog's every need (of which there are many) and gave him a warm and comfortable home for the day. We'll definitely be back soon!”
“We trust Ruth 100% with our little Holly. Ruth is quick to reply to messages, cares very much about the well being of the dogs she minds, and it’s so kind. I can’t recommend her enough!”

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: **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.
About: My husband and I are lifelong dog lovers with two dogs of our own. We have plenty of experience caring for dogs of different sizes, personalities and energy levels. We provide a safe, loving and comfortable home where dogs are treated like part of our family. We understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your dog, so we follow each owner’s routine and instructions closely and make sure every dog gets plenty of attention, affection, playtime and care. Matt and I are both home throughout the day, so your dog will have plenty of company, attention and supervision. We love having dogs as part of our daily routine and can easily accommodate regular walks, outdoor breaks, playtime and plenty of cuddles. Since we’re home, we can also closely follow your dog’s usual feeding, exercise and rest schedule to make their stay feel as comfortable and familiar as possible. Your dog’s safety and comfort are our top priorities. With both of us home throughout the day, dogs receive lots of attention and supervision and are rarely left alone. We carefully follow each owner’s instructions and keep dogs securely leashed outside. We take the time to learn each dog’s personality, routine and needs so they can settle in and feel safe, relaxed and loved in our home.
About: 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.
“Jonathan et Ashleigh se sont très bien occupés de Peanut, ramassant même les petits dégâts fait à la maison. Des gens amoureux des animaux et ne voulant que leur bien être :) je recommande”
About: My passion for animals began at the age of 7, when I took care of a standard poodle and created agility courses for him, since I couldn’t have pets of my own. Since then, my love for animals has only grown, and today I am a proud parent to several companions. Each animal is unique, and I make sure to provide them with attentive care, as if they were part of my family. Caring for animals is an integral part of my daily routine. Between feeding, playtime, and maintaining a clean and stimulating environment, I care for my pets with love every day. I’m used to balancing active play sessions with quiet, relaxing moments. Having also raised a litter of kittens, I know how to adapt my routine to meet the needs of animals at every stage of their lives. Whether it’s for my own pets or others, providing consistent and attentive care comes naturally to me. Whether at my home or my clients’ homes, I always tailor my care to the specific needs of each animal. At home, I create a safe and stimulating environment, with spaces to play, relax, and feel right at home. My pets are used to sharing their space, which makes it easier to welcome new companions. Chez mes clients, je respecte les habitudes et la routine de l'animal pour assurer un maximum de confort en leur absence. Qu'il s'agisse de promenades, de jeux interactifs, de repas ou simplement de leur tenir compagnie, je veille à ce que chaque animal reçoive toute l'attention et les soins nécessaires pour se sentir en sécurité et épanoui.

“Such a lovely family! Pogo was so lucky to stay with Anh and Quang and their sweet dog Kind. From the moment we met them, we felt totally at ease, they were kind, patient, and so loving with her. Their little one was also incredibly gentle, which meant a lot to us. We got daily photos, videos, and updates, and it was clear Pogo was having the best time and felt right at home. It honestly made being away so much easier knowing she was so well cared for. We will absolutely book with them again and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to anyone looking for amazing sitters! Thank you again 💓”

“Nancy et Maxime ont gardé nos deux chiens pendant notre voyage au Mexique du 6 au 22 février 2026 et nous sommes vraiment reconnaissants pour les bons soins qu’ils leur ont apportés. Ils ont été attentionnés, bienveillants et très gentils avec nos chiens. Nous avons senti qu’ils prenaient leur bien-être à cœur. Pendant notre absence, nous avons aussi reçu des nouvelles ainsi que des photos d’elles, ce qui nous a énormément rassurés et fait très plaisir. Partir aussi longtemps est toujours un peu stressant quand on laisse ses animaux, mais savoir qu’elles étaient entre de bonnes mains nous a permis de profiter de notre voyage l’esprit tranquille. Un grand merci à Nancy et Maxime pour leur accueil et leur attention envers nos chiens. Nous n’hésiterions pas à leur faire confiance de nouveau.”
“Willie is the best. He’s attentive and is always present with the dogs. I loved that my Lab was with other dogs making it stimulating and fun to experience. It was my first time using Rover and Willie. He texted me with photos every day and answered any questions I asked. Willie is my go to for future stays. You can’t go wrong with.”
“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!”
“Carlos & his family were so accommodating and thoughtful in taking care of Seven while we were away. He was extremely responsive, sent updates throughout her stay, was reassuring and had everything under control making our time away so much more enjoyable knowing she was in great hands.
