“Jessica and Tyler were incredible with Chester. Jessica sent plenty of updates, showing just how spoiled he was. I would recommend Jessica without hesitation. We have one exhausted puppy, which tells me just how happy he was and how much he enjoyed himself.”
“We left our sweet Janna with Ben for 12 days — the longest we’ve ever been away from her, and the first time she stayed with someone outside of our family. From the moment we dropped her off, Ben made the entire experience incredibly comforting and stress-free. He went above and beyond every single day. Janna was walked regularly, kept active, and absolutely showered with affection. Ben sent us frequent updates and photos, which truly put us at ease and made us feel connected to her even while we were away. When we picked her up, it was obvious how well-loved, healthy, and emotionally balanced she was. She was relaxed, happy, and completely at home — you could tell she had been spoiled in all the best ways. Honestly, when she hears Ben’s name now, she perks right up… I think she may have adopted him as her second favourite human! We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. Ben has officially become Janna’s “home away from home,” and he will be our first choice every time we travel. Highly, highly recommended — 10/10 experience. ❤️🐾”
“Ashley was absolutely amazing with us and our puppy. She really knows animals and made us feel very comfortable and confident leaving our puppy with her. We received a video of him while we were gone and he was having a lot of fun. We highly recommend her and will definitely use her again in the future to take care of our puppy”
“Selina and Pascal were fantastic! They took very good care of our dog and made sure Ruby had everything she needed and more. We received multiple updates, which gave us great peace of mind. I would highly recommend them and would absolutely rebook. Thank you!”
“Josée was an amazing dog sitter. Our dog Juny instantly fell in love with her. She took care of her needs, above and beyond. The guilt instantly disappeared, she was in dog paradise while we were on vacation. Thanks again! ❤️💜🩵”
“Première expérience avec Isabelle et cette plate-forme. Un super 24 heures pour notre Sally en sa compagnie. La communication avec Isabelle était facile et agréable. Sally l'a adoptée tout de suite. 🥰 Je recommande Isabelle à 100% 😀”
“Thanks to Justyne for doing a great job with my fur baby Richmond. She was patient, kind offering lots of play and training. My boy is shy with potty and generally won’t eat with new people but, he did awesome with Justyne. I love all the photos and updates. We will absolutely book again and recommend her.”
“Our dog Toffee had the best time with Soha and her dog Bully. Our dog is a nervous pup, especially in new environments, but Soha made her feel so welcome from the first introduction and is one of the kindest sitters we have had the pleasure of interacting with. We received regular updates throughout Toffee’s stay. We highly recommend Soha and will definitely be a returning customer.”
“Suzanne and her family took excellent care of our small senior dog while we were away on a quick weekend getaway. She loves dogs and it genuinely shows. Would highly recommend her services.”
“Mahnaz was wonderful with our temperamental little Mocha while he stayed with her last week, and had patience with him while he settled in. She sent many pictures and videos while we were away, so we could see that he was well cared for. We’ve already booked a second stay.”
“Stephanie took wonderful care of my dog, Kobe, while we were away for three days. She kept us updated with photos throughout his stay, which gave us so much peace of mind and made it clear he was happy and well cared for. It was such a relief knowing he was in good hands while we were on vacation. I would absolutely recommend Stephanie to anyone looking for a caring, reliable, and trustworthy pet sitter!”
About: Hello! I’m Julie. Passionate about animals, I grew up surrounded by dogs from a very young age. This naturally developed into a deep love for our four-legged friends, which is why offering my time to pamper your companions feels like a natural step. Thanks to our very flexible work schedules, my partner and I are regularly at home: your pets will always be in good hands and will never lack company! I work from home and only go to the office occasionally, while my partner works from home full-time. There is almost always someone on-site, and on the rare occasions there isn't, pets are never left on their own for more than 3 hours a day. For daycare, we will be there with them from the moment they arrive until they leave. Our family—consisting of my partner, my dog, my cat, and myself—is located in a very peaceful, family-friendly neighborhood, and our yard is fully fenced and secure. At our home, your pets will hang out with Zoé, our adorable 3-year-old pug. Very friendly and food-loving, she is always ready to keep her new friends company, along with our very affectionate cat, Minet.
“Melanie was an absolute amazing sitter for my dog. I felt like I was leaving him with family. He was so well loved and cared for. I always received a ton of updates. And she included him in all her activities as if he was her own dog. I felt so comfortable having him there, knowing he had her and her son, as well as her other pets, were there for company. I will absolutely be rebooking with her.”
“Daisy really enjoyed her first visit with Raquel. She has a beautiful big fenced in backyard and Daisy had fun exploring with another doggy friend. Daisy is a Lot of energy and into everything. Raquel assured me she could handle it and she did. Daisy is looking forward to her next visit!”
“Great experience booking with Shanice. You could tell right from her greeting that my dog was in good hands. Good communication, very helpful and friendly, I got plenty of pawsitive photos of my dog having fun lounging and going for a run! Yes my 10 year old dog went for a run, and she loved it. She normally won’t eat when I’m away but Shanice made her feel right at home and she ate right away from the first night. Very happy we went with this, would 100% recommend.”
“Camylle was very professional, and clearly cares a lot for her animals and showed that she cared about mine. The amount of photos and updates I recieved really helped me feel comfortable having left my puppy with someone caring for her first time away from me. Will definitely be using her services again!”

About: What sets me apart is the genuine love, patience, and experience I bring to every pet I care for. I’ve been around animals my whole life and have trained three of my own dogs, giving me experience with different personalities, energy levels, and training needs. I’ve also cared for senior and disabled dogs, as well as dogs who experience anxiety and stress. My own puppy has severe anxiety, so I understand how important it is to give nervous pets extra patience, reassurance, and a calm environment where they feel safe and comfortable. I love making sure pets get plenty of attention and enrichment, whether that means going for walks, playing, grooming, practicing training, or simply spending time together. I treat every animal as an individual and want them to feel happy, loved, and cared for while their owners are away. 🐾❤️ I work part-time, usually 5-hour shifts, and I’m completing university online, so I’m home for most of the day. This means pets will only be alone for a limited amount of time and will get plenty of attention, walks, playtime, and love throughout the day. I’m happy to work around each pet’s individual routine and needs. I care for pets in their own home, keeping them in a familiar and comfortable environment. I follow their normal routine, including feeding, walks, playtime, grooming, and any special care they need. I treat every home and pet with respect and care, and my goal is to make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while their owners are away.
“Isabelle s’est occupée de mes deux chats et mes deux poissons lorsque j’étais parti en vacances en Irlande. Ma chatte Lexie est asthmatique et Isabelle lui a donné sa pompe et elle étais confortable avec ça. Même avec le décalage d’horaire Isabelle répondait à mes messages très vite. J’ai aussi apprécié les photos à tout les jours. Merci Isabelle !”
About: Les chats font partie de mon parcours de vie depuis l’enfance. J’apprécie particulièrement leur indépendance, leur sensibilité et leurs personnalités uniques. Je respecte leur rythme et leurs limites : présence tranquille, jeux, gratouilles à leur demande, repas, litière propre et médicaments oraux au besoin. Avec moi, votre chat peut simplement être… un chat. 🐾
“Mala was really helpful we had a last minute trip and needed a sitter ASAP and she was there when we needed her. She communicated with us throughout the day and when she left. Great sitter!”
“We have three senior cats with special needs, and we were very worried to leave them alone for a few days. Jean‑François completely put our mind at ease and truly stole our hearts with the exceptional care he provided. Every day, he sent detailed updates about how our cats were doing, complete with notes about their meals, medications, playtime, litter cleaning, and all the affection he showered them with. I cannot recommend Jean‑François enough to care for your furry family members. Finding someone so trustworthy, attentive, and reliable has been such a gift. Thank you Jean‑François, on behalf of Mitaine, Kyra, and Hubert :)”

“We are more then thankful and grateful for Abigail’s pet sitting services. Our Luna was loved and taken care of by Aby. She sent me updates and pictures throughout the week.

“I recently had the pleasure of having Olivia care for my cat Nala, and I couldn't be happier with the experience. From the moment we met, it was clear that she genuinely loves animals and took the time to understand Nala’s needs and personality.

“Ginger just came back from her first visit with Jessica and Dozer. Jessica was great at making Ginger feel safe and secure in this new environment and giving her some love and cuddles. Jessica sent me a bunch of pictures which was awesome and reassuring to me. Dozer (her big dog) was also great at giving Ginger the space she needed when we first got there. I will definitely bring Ginger back to Jessica’s!”
“Taylor did such an amazing job. My puppy is exhausted from daycare. Taylor took Bernie out for walks and gave me updates when asked. She also helped Bernie meet his first cat and enjoyed his type. Will sure be using Taylor in the future.”
“We were drawn to Ashley’s for its country setting thinking it would be a great place for our energetic 9 month old puppy and we were not disappointed. Ashley agreed to a meet and greet the day before our booking to tour the grounds and meet 2 other dogs that would be there the next day. Ashley also sent us an update and pictures while walking the dogs. We knew we had made the right choice when our puppy returned to Ashley before jumping into our vehicle at pick-up time.”

About: With a lifetime of experience around large dogs, I’m confident caring for breeds of all sizes and temperaments. I prioritize safety, routine, exercise, and personalized attention so you can feel completely at ease while away. Doggy daycare/dog walking fits really naturally into my routine because I already have dedicated days off during the week and love staying active. I work full time, but on my available days I’m home and able to give dogs lots of attention, walks, playtime, and bathroom breaks throughout the day. Your pet will get lots of attention, walks, playtime, and love. I stick to their routine so they feel comfortable, but I also make sure they’re getting plenty of stimulation and not just sitting around bored. At my place, they’ve got a safe, relaxed space to hang out and settle in like they belong there. In a client’s home, I keep things consistent so they feel secure in their own environment.
“Erin is the greatest dog sitter ever - my dog absolutely loves going over to her place and when he gets home he is so tired from all the fun he has. I Highly recommend Erin!”
About: Being a mom to my border collie/aussie shepherd for almost 5 years showed me how pure a pet’s love is, and it made me want to look for more opportunities to spend time with pets. I currently volunteer at Penny Lane Animal Sanctuary, where I help take care of animals that come from situations of abuse and neglect. It is hard, rewarding work and I get to spend some time with cows, goats, sheep’s (and more!) while I am at it. I love taking care of animals and getting to know their quirks and unique personality. With a pretty high-energy dog that requires long walks, lots of exercise and mental stimulation, I can help you taking care of your pet, if you are struggling to find the time or the energy, or if you are going on vacation. I am available for walks, drop ins, house sitting, boarding or daycare. Send me a note if you’d like to schedule a meet and greet! 🐶 My schedule is pretty flexible. Whether it’s during the weekend, in the afternoon, evening, or a lunch drop in, my schedule is flexible enough to accommodate that. If you have an emergency event and need to leave the house, I can make myself available!
“Justyne was amazing with my dog Toffee. Toffee tends to be quite nervous meeting new people and in new environments but was made to feel so welcome from the moment we walked through the door! We also appreciated the regular updates throughout the stay. Highly recommend and we will definitely be using Justyne’s services again. Thank you so much Justyne!”
“Amazing! She took good care of Pyper! Pyper was tired when she got home but not too tired to sniff around the new home we moved into. Thank you so much for taking care or our baby on such short notice!”

About: Experienced in Veterinary Medicine for 8 years. I've been working with dogs my whole life. Dog walking since 11 years old. Working along professional dog trainers in boarding facilities was a huge plus to help me guild dogs safely around our neighborhoods and parks. I have experience grooming (please contact if you wish to book your dog a groom while they are with me) as well as emergency veterinary care for the past 7 years. My job working in the veterinary hospital is a blessing to be surrounded by animals every second of every day. I am looking to fit some walking into my lunch breaks or night walks in the Ottawa/Gatineau areas. I'm free all day from Friday-Sunday for Pet sitting or dog walks any time of the day. Caring for animals on a daily basis keep me alert and on my toes on what pets are doing all the time. I keep a close eye and make sure they are well and happy.
About: I grew up surrounded by animals, taking care of their wants, needs and ensuring a safe environment! I love animals and enjoy providing life enrichment! I am currently looking for part-time work, and am looking to provide this service! I am very flexible to suit the needs of your pet and how you want their day to look! I have a fenced yard, surrounded by parks and have two friendly dogs to keep them company! I could easily follow a given schedule or routine.
About: I’ve been watching dogs for 7 years now. I love all types of dogs. But the first dog I ever got close to was a pitbull. He was the first over night dog sit/house sit. I ever did, the couple would travel often due to work. So I would dog sit about 2/3 times a week. I did that for about two years and gained a lot of experience with dogs due to that job. I also find dog walking a great way to stay healthy and active with out it feeling like a work out. I’ve enjoyed dogging sitting ever since I started and don’t plan to stop. So for now that I can’t get a dog of my own. I’ll just watch yours ! Just send me a message and ill send you my number so we can set up a meeting. Price is negotiable. I’m currently a full time student online so I’m looking to make cash while staying active and happy and what a better way than to pet sit. I’ve loved animal since I was a little girl so being around them always brings me joy and as you’ll see they take a liking to me as well. Even the pups you think won’t, always end up loving me as well. I live in a very spacious one bedroom apartment with a balcony alone so they always feel free and nice fresh air. There is a courtyard in my building that is dog friendly and three dog parks near my building as well. So they will always have room to run and be themselves. I am a full time online student so I would be spending my whole day with your pups. They would always be in great care with love and attention. I have a nice courtyard in my building that’s pet friendly and they can play and I also have three dog parks in my area. Where they can run around and meet new pups if allowed I am currently an full time online student so I would be with your pup the whole day. If you’d like to hear my specific daily routine let me know 😊 I usually stick to the routine a parent gives me so they can feel as comfortable as possible while staying with me or if I’m staying in their home.

Your pet’s safety and happiness are my top priorities. I’ll treat them like one of my own and keep you updated with regular photos and messages, so you can relax knowing they’re in caring and reliable hands.

About: I have cared for my family’s dogs for periods ranging from a few days to several months, and I have regularly lived with dogs for long periods of time. Through this experience, I understand that caring for animals requires time, patience, responsibility, and dedication. I truly enjoy helping animals feel safe, calm, and comfortable, and I always try to create a caring environment where they can feel relaxed and secure. I would plan my daily routine to make sure your dog is included throughout the day, with dedicated time for rest, feeding, playtime, and exercise. Your dog would not only be cared for by one person, but welcomed as part of a family environment. I genuinely enjoy the company of animals and feel comfortable understanding their behaviors, needs, and personalities, which helps me provide attentive and caring support. I live in an apartment with balcony, available for pets to move around comfortably. Even large dogs can move freely, and my home is free of fragile objects, so your dog will not feel restricted or stressed while staying with me.

I am very protective of animals, so your dog would always be safe and carefully supervised with me, especially in open or public spaces. I believe in building trust and discipline through patience, consistency, and positive interaction rather than using force. In general, I connect well with animals and enjoy giving them a sense of safety, comfort, and confidence so they can feel protected and truly enjoy their time with me.

“We left our sweet Janna with Ben for 12 days — the longest we’ve ever been away from her, and the first time she stayed with someone outside of our family. From the moment we dropped her off, Ben made the entire experience incredibly comforting and stress-free. He went above and beyond every single day. Janna was walked regularly, kept active, and absolutely showered with affection. Ben sent us frequent updates and photos, which truly put us at ease and made us feel connected to her even while we were away. When we picked her up, it was obvious how well-loved, healthy, and emotionally balanced she was. She was relaxed, happy, and completely at home — you could tell she had been spoiled in all the best ways. Honestly, when she hears Ben’s name now, she perks right up… I think she may have adopted him as her second favourite human! We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. Ben has officially become Janna’s “home away from home,” and he will be our first choice every time we travel. Highly, highly recommended — 10/10 experience. ❤️🐾”
“Ashley was absolutely amazing with us and our puppy. She really knows animals and made us feel very comfortable and confident leaving our puppy with her. We received a video of him while we were gone and he was having a lot of fun. We highly recommend her and will definitely use her again in the future to take care of our puppy”
“Selina and Pascal were fantastic! They took very good care of our dog and made sure Ruby had everything she needed and more. We received multiple updates, which gave us great peace of mind. I would highly recommend them and would absolutely rebook. Thank you!”
“Josée was an amazing dog sitter. Our dog Juny instantly fell in love with her. She took care of her needs, above and beyond. The guilt instantly disappeared, she was in dog paradise while we were on vacation. Thanks again! ❤️💜🩵”
“Thanks to Justyne for doing a great job with my fur baby Richmond. She was patient, kind offering lots of play and training. My boy is shy with potty and generally won’t eat with new people but, he did awesome with Justyne. I love all the photos and updates. We will absolutely book again and recommend her.”
“Suzanne and her family took excellent care of our small senior dog while we were away on a quick weekend getaway. She loves dogs and it genuinely shows. Would highly recommend her services.”
“Mahnaz was wonderful with our temperamental little Mocha while he stayed with her last week, and had patience with him while he settled in. She sent many pictures and videos while we were away, so we could see that he was well cared for. We’ve already booked a second stay.”
“Stephanie took wonderful care of my dog, Kobe, while we were away for three days. She kept us updated with photos throughout his stay, which gave us so much peace of mind and made it clear he was happy and well cared for. It was such a relief knowing he was in good hands while we were on vacation. I would absolutely recommend Stephanie to anyone looking for a caring, reliable, and trustworthy pet sitter!”
“Melanie was an absolute amazing sitter for my dog. I felt like I was leaving him with family. He was so well loved and cared for. I always received a ton of updates. And she included him in all her activities as if he was her own dog. I felt so comfortable having him there, knowing he had her and her son, as well as her other pets, were there for company. I will absolutely be rebooking with her.”
“Great experience booking with Shanice. You could tell right from her greeting that my dog was in good hands. Good communication, very helpful and friendly, I got plenty of pawsitive photos of my dog having fun lounging and going for a run! Yes my 10 year old dog went for a run, and she loved it. She normally won’t eat when I’m away but Shanice made her feel right at home and she ate right away from the first night. Very happy we went with this, would 100% recommend.”
“Camylle was very professional, and clearly cares a lot for her animals and showed that she cared about mine. The amount of photos and updates I recieved really helped me feel comfortable having left my puppy with someone caring for her first time away from me. Will definitely be using her services again!”
“Kathrine and her family were amazing!!! It was a home away from home for our dog. Kathrine was great at sending photos and caring for an unexpected ear infection! I would recommend and will definitely be sending our pup back.”
“Ella took a really good care of my dog Kaiser while I was away for two weeks. She sent me updates daily so I knew my dog is in a good hand, my dog had a wonderful time with Ella.”
“Coralie and Kevin took marvellous care of our huskies!! It was such a relief being able to leave town while knowing our dogs were in such a great environment. First of all, their home is lovely and has a perfect yard where dogs can burn their energy. Second, they are so kind, welcoming and have a very gentle dog who got along great with my busy huskies. I was nervous leaving my dogs in a new place; however, they provided updates and kept an open line of communication with very prompt replies; which really brought peace of mind while being away. I would highly recommend booking with them. It was our first time, and certainly not our last! :)”
“Qianzhi was great with Eevee! She kept Eevee happy by playing with her and taking her on many walks which included trails. Our favourite thing she did was the constant flow of pictures she sent us, so we always knew what she was doing. Qianzhi was very communicative and was to quick to reply to any and all messages. We will definitely be booking her again!”
“First time user of Rover and I was very impressed with the professionalism and level of care that my Frankie received. If and when I ever need a dog-sitter again, I will jump at the chance to have Julia take care of my baby.”
