“Ella is caring and amazing! She provides daily itinerary and it made it really clear. She provides updates throughout the day and easy to reach. I would definitely recommend!!”
“It’s Elie’s second stay with Bruna and she absolutely loves her time there. She always comes back tired and happy. Bruna is truly amazing to deal with. She’s flexible, transparent and she sends lots of updates. Special mention to Peroggie, who Elie seems to like very much!”
“This is clearly a “labour of love” for you and it shows. Fionn had such a great time. My energetic guy had a long, sound sleep last night which highlights how much fun he had with you all. Thank you for taking such fabulous care of him! It means so much to know he is in good hands.”
“Kelly and her son were great with my dog. They sent me pictures and updates to let me know how he was doing. This was my first time using Rover and Kelly was the perfect fit for me. I felt confident with her right away. Thank you!”
“My dog Billy stayed with Lucas and Thyara for 5 days in their beautiful home. Lucas and Thyara are very friendly. They were very welcoming to Billy. They are very caring couple, they wanted to know all about him. They sent me pictures every day, I liked that. I can tell he enjoyed his stay. I would give them my highest recommendation. Thank you Luke and Thyara !”
About: Depuis l’âge de 4 ans, les chiens font partie intégrante de ma vie. Mon premier compagnon m’a accompagnée jusqu’à mes 18 ans, et depuis, je n’ai jamais vécu sans chien. J’ai côtoyé plusieurs races, du Yorkshire à l’American Staffordshire, et j’ai également eu quatre portées, en plus d’avoir assisté à de nombreuses mises bas. J’ai été famille d’accueil, j’ai fait du sauvetage et j’ai relocalisé des chiens et des chats abandonnés en plein hiver lorsque je vivais à la campagne. L’univers canin est une véritable passion et un mode de vie. Si je pouvais adopter une dizaine de chiens, je le ferais sans hésiter, mais offrir mes services de pension est la meilleure façon de combler mon cœur tout en aidant d’autres familles. Nous vivons sur plus de deux acres de terrain, en pleine campagne et loin des routes principales, ce qui offre un environnement sécuritaire et idéal pour les chiens en pleine nature. Chaque matin commence par une marche de 30 à 45 minutes avec ma meute, suivie d’une période de jeu pour se dégourdir et socialiser. Je m’adapte à chaque animal comme s’il était le mien (rythme, besoins, personnalité, niveau d’énergie). Tous les chiens reçoivent leur dose quotidienne d’amour, d’attention et de stimulation. Mon expérience en reproduction, en socialisation, en sauvetage et en gestion de meute me permet d’offrir un service attentif, sécuritaire et profondément bienveillant. Un vrai foyer temporaire pour vos compagnons! Je suis étudiante à mon propre rythme, ce qui fait que je suis à la maison toute la journée. Notre routine est stable et bien organisée : nous avons quatre enfants une semaine sur deux, ainsi qu’un berger allemand de 1 an et demi, Whiskey, qui adore avoir de la compagnie. Comme je dispose de beaucoup de temps libre, accueillir des chiens s’intègre naturellement à mon quotidien. Whiskey serait ravi d’avoir des amis à quatre pattes, et moi de pouvoir offrir un environnement sécuritaire, stimulant et chaleureux aux chiens du quartier. J’ai remarqué qu’il y a peu d’options de pension dans notre secteur, alors j’ai décidé d’offrir aux propriétaires une solution de proximité. Je souhaite développer mes services selon la demande, car j’ai toujours rêvé de créer une petite pension canine. Rien n’est plus gratifiant que de permettre à des chiens de se dégourdir, de socialiser et de s’amuser pendant que leurs humains sont au travail ou doivent s’absenter pour un week‑end et ont besoin d’une solution de garde fiable et chaleureuse.. Je serai là pour prendre soin de vos compagnons comme s’ils étaient les miens. À la maison, les chiens évoluent dans un environnement spacieux, sécuritaire et pensé pour leur bien‑être. Nous avons plus de deux acres de terrain en pleine campagne, loin des routes principales, ainsi qu’une maison de 1 660 pi² avec deux grands salons. Cela nous permet d’accueillir confortablement des chiens de toutes tailles et de séparer les groupes selon leur énergie, leur personnalité ou leurs besoins, notamment pour les pensionnaires qui restent la nuit. Même si notre cour n’est pas encore clôturée, les chiens ne manquent jamais d’activité physique ni de stimulation. Les sorties se font en laisse, en petits groupes, ou sous forme de jeux encadrés comme le lancer de balle. Chaque chien reçoit sa dose quotidienne d’exercice, de socialisation ou de repos selon son tempérament. Pour les moments plus calmes, un espace intérieur douillet avec musique jazz est disponible pour les amateurs de sieste. Nous sommes déjà en processus de soumission pour clôturer une partie du terrain afin de créer un véritable espace de parc canin directement sur notre propriété. Mon objectif est d’offrir, à l’intérieur comme à l’extérieur, des zones adaptées où les chiens peuvent se dépenser, jouer et interagir en toute sécurité, sans être constamment tenus en laisse. J’ai à cœur le bien‑être de chaque pensionnaire. Je m’adapte à chaque chien comme s’il était le mien. Ici, ils reçoivent attention, affection, structure et sécurité — un environnement où ils peuvent vraiment s’épanouir. Aidez‑nous à grandir et encouragez notre petite pension familiale : chaque chien accueilli contribue à faire évoluer notre projet et à créer un lieu encore plus sécuritaire et stimulant!
“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! ❤️💜🩵”
“Raquel lovingly cared for our dog Bella for ten days! She frequently sent us photos and videos showing us that she was very happy, which gave us a lot of peace of mind. I recommend her 100% to leave your dogs in a safe place. Thank you, Raquel!”
“Olivia and Sheyla took great care of my fur baby for a week. They communicated regularly and sent regular photos and some videos. I really appreciate the consistent updates throughout my time away. Would recommend!”
“Qianzhi is lovely! She gave me regular updates and sent pics and videos of Louie. I felt comfortable leaving Louie with Qianzhi and would definitely book with her again.”
“Jasper can’t stop talking about her stay with Emily & Alison! Their communication was excellent, our dog was walked, loved, and she can’t wait to go back! Thank you Emily, Alison & Family!”
“Bella was relaxed and well exercise when I picked her up Cristina was wonderfully flexible about my pick up times and accommodated my needs that changed. This was my first experience with Rover and I’m very happy with it.”
“My dog loves weekends at Miaozi's place. Miaozi sends pictures and videos daily, keeps us updated on food, walks, naps etc. , goes for several healthy walks daily despite the cold weather. I trust that my dog is in good hands when I leave her with Miaozi”
“Great experience with Catherine. Lots of updates throughout our time away to let us know how Cooper was getting along. Catherine is a very warm person who clearly cares about the animals she cares for. I know Cooper would have enjoyed his time with her kids and family as well.”
“Yingshu and Shervin are really nice! Highly recommend! They took wonderful care of my dog and kept me updated with photos and messages throughout the stay, which gave me great peace of mind. My dog came home happy and well cared for. Reliable, kind, and easy to communicate with—I would definitely book with them again!”
“As a first time user of Rover, I did not know what to expect. Gerald was great at explaining the process and we had a wonderful experience from start to finish. It is clear that Gerald loves animals and treated Ollie like his own, even reassuring us that things would work out fine when Ollie was a little stressed the first day of his stay. By the end of the week, Ollie clearly felt at home, not sure whether he wanted to stay with Gerald or go home. Thanks again, Gerald, for taking such good care of Ollie. We will definitely be back the next time we need someone to look after Ollie.”
“This was my first experience with the new puppy and using Rover, and I couldn't be more relieved and happy with the experience. Eliana was great: quick to respond, reassuring, and sent loads of pics and updates to this borderline helicopter pawrent. Highly recommend and hope to use again.”
“Shanice was very accommodating with my cat’s needs. She made sure that he had a comfortable and quiet place where he had access to everything he needs. She was also a very sweet person, and I would definitely book with her again.”

“Isabelle took amazing care of our cat Layla while we were on vacation. It was nice to have picture updates while we were gone and see Layla was being well-fed and looked after. Isabelle will be the first person we call when we go away in the future :) Merci Isabelle!”
“Tori did a wonderful job looking after our three cats. She was consistently on time and genuinely attentive, taking the extra moments to pet them and spend real quality time with each of them. She also cleaned up any messes they made, keeping everything neat and stress-free for us. She is definitely our go-to person for pet care, and we highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone reliable, thoughtful, and dedicated.”
“Christine was our first catsitter, from Rover, with Mario and Luigi. I felt really good leaving for 5 days, knowing that we had an established schedule and a list of extra info for Christine. She did amazing! I had news/pics daily. I am so pleased with Christine’s care. I especially appreciated the daily entries in a journal left for me 🤩. It was fun to read! Thank you so so much Christine 😻😻”
“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 :)”
“Bruna was amazing with our cat Nougat! We contacted her last minute for a weekend sitting and she replied right away. She was super friendly, reliable, and caring. She sent us lots of pictures and updates, which really reassured us. Nougat looked so happy in every photo and played a lot with her. We truly appreciated her help and wouldn’t hesitate to book her again. Highly recommend!”
“Nevaeh was great! She took on our request very last minute, and really got us out of a jam caused by another sitter that cancelled on us a day and a half before we were leaving. After meeting her we knew that our cats would be in very good hands. Thank you Nevaeh!”
About: I’ve owned dogs and cats all my life and I have a small 12 pound dog that is eight. I understand how important it is for pets to have time to play and stay into their daily routine. I am able to walk, play or administer medicine when required for dogs and cats. As a dog walker, my schedule permits me to walk anytime on the weekday, and early in the morning or early evening on the weekdays. I have time to walk, or change their litter, and ensure that their daily needs, medication or outdoor time is tended to. I am able to adjust the care as required to meet the needs of each pet. In my home I have one small 12 pound Pomeranian, who is eight and very sociable. If needed I can drop in to take care of your pets while you’re away, and with clear instructions I can ensure they’re cared for as needed.
“Once again Natalia has taken amazing care of Leo while my partner and I were travelling. Our fur-baby clearly loves spending time with her, and it makes us so grateful to know he is in such excellent hands ☺️”
About: - Gentle, patient, and highly adaptable, with an understanding that every pet has a unique personality, routine, and comfort level - Experienced in administering medication and carefully following special diets and detailed care instructions - Fluent in English, Mandarin, and Cantonese - Always treat every pet with the same care, attention, and respect as my own🌟❤️
About: I’ve always had a genuine love for dogs, and caring for my own 12 year old cocker spaniel has taught me so much about responsibility, patience, and compassion. She has digestive issues, so I prepare her meals myself and closely monitor her health: this experience has made me especially attentive to the unique needs each dog might have. I love taking her on walks, playing with her, and making sure she feels happy and safe. Over the years, friends and family have trusted me with their pets many times, knowing I treat every animal like my own. Whether it’s a playful pup or a senior dog needing extra care, I’m dedicated to providing loving, reliable care every time! Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine! I'm a university student who genuinely loves dogs and would be so happy to spend my free time caring for and hanging out with pups. I also love going on walks, so your dog can count on getting plenty of fresh air and exercise with me:) my apartment is very pet friendly, with a dog wash area and outdoor space for dogs to play. So whether your dog needs a walking buddy, some company, or just lots of love and attention, I'd be happy to make them feel at home❤️ When caring for pets in my client’s home, I treat their space with respect and make sure their pet feels comfortable and safe in their own environment. I carefully follow all instructions, from feeding routines to walk schedules and any special needs. I’m very attentive to each pet’s behavior and health, always keeping a close eye to ensure they’re happy and well.
About: I've lived alongside many cats in my lifetime - I've always felt as though every cat in the world is my friend, and yours is no different! I am gentle, patient and receptive to cats and their needs. I understand that some cats are a little more cuddly, and others are fans of their own personal space - I love them all just the same. I've cared for kittens, senior cats and everything in between - I definitely don't discriminate. I'm a genuine cat lover - I offer discounted ratings for longer bookings and discounts for repeat clients. As a settler in Ottawa, I recognize that I am on the traditional, unceded, and unsurrendered territory of the Anishinaabe Algonquin Nation. I offer free compassionate care for Indigenous cat owners, and discounted rates for low-income or disabled cat owners. Message me today<3.
“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. The house was immaculate when we returned. She even took out the huge pile of garbage we add accumulated through winter. I recommend her services ? %. We will definitely be booking with her in the future. Thank you Abigail. Luna misses you ? Martine and Adison”
About: Devout feline worshipper seeking more cats to spoil. 😸 As a busy fur mom to three-two kittens and a senior, I am always looking to get involved with more cats. It is my ultimate goal to connect with as many as possible. I genuinely believe cats deserve to have their individual personalities respected. Some want constant attention, some want a vigorous play session, and some would prefer that I admire them respectfully from six feet away. I’m happy to accommodate all three. I have hands-on experience with kittens, seniors, specialized diets, medications, detailed feeding routines, and multi-cat households. I’m attentive to changes in appetite, behaviour, litter-box habits, and overall well-being, and I’ll follow your instructions carefully. Whether your cat needs a playmate, a cuddle buddy, a personal food attendant, or simply a calm human presence, I’m here to provide purrsonalized care while you’re away. As a former foster volunteer, I am well-versed on feline temperaments, play styles, behaviours and needs. I know how to respect boundaries while providing quality care and a good time!
About: I've had a pet ever since I can remember, life's incomplete without one. I have lots of experience with various sizes of dogs, and with cats. I'm comfortable around all animals. I work full time but have full availability in the evenings and weekends. I also wake up early and have time in the morning to spend with pets! I have been around pets my entire life. Their safety in the most important thing to me. Building trust and a connection with your pet will be my priority, so that they feel safe while under my care!

About: My husband (Scott) and I have had dogs (and other animals) our entire lives. Over the years, we have consistently opened our home to rescues, strays, fosters, friend/ family pets, and have even socialized 4 litters of feral kittens for the Humane Society. Scott also has close to 15 years’ worth of experience with the Humane Society as a cruelty investigator. In 2024, we had to say farewell to both our aged cat and dog . We so miss our four-legged companions and are now ready to share our home again by spoiling your furry friends with exercise, cuddles and play time. So, doing so through Rover seemed like a natural fit. We both work from home, giving us the flexibility to pamper, exercise and stimulate your pooch! If our energy wanes at all, rest assured our 9-year-old son is always ready to step in with his endless enthusiasm 😊 Our extensive experience with senior animals, has also provided us with skills in administering medication, attending to spinal injuries, elderly pets, specialized food preparation etc. Having owned a rescue dalmatian, two rescue miniature dachshunds, and a 3-legged hound, we are also very familiar how to accommodate special needs, diets, injuries etc. Most importantly, we have learned that each furry friend has their own unique personality! 😊 A quick note about compatibility: To ensure a safe, calm, and positive environment for everyone—especially our returning clients—dogs staying with us must be non-aggressive toward other dogs. If your dog requires one-on-one care or has challenges with dog interactions, this may still be possible by arrangement, but an additional fee may apply to fairly account for the extra supervision and management required. We’re always happy to discuss your dog’s needs openly to determine the best fit. We can’t wait to meet your fur baby and spoil it like it is our own (and we will send you pictures to prove it)! Melody & Scott We work from home daily and make a point of walking at least once a day, no matter the weather (with or without a four-legged friend). Our house is steps away from the Chelsea rails to trails so we have miles of fun trails to explore together! Our home has multiple water stations, dog beds, and dog toy stations. Play time, brushing and cuddles are the highlight of the day in our home, so we make time for these regularly throughout the day!! We love to play with our furry friends!

“Lucas is super friendly and he is great with my dog. It is her first experience being away from me after I adopted her so it was very important for me to feel comfortable with him and I do. And so does my dog. She is usually shy around new people but he is so chill, I could see that she liked him and they will bond in no time. We will continue doggie daycare and eventually longer stays with Lucas.”
“Thank you, Natasha, for agreeing to take Luna at the last minute. I really appreciate it — everything went wonderfully. She replied very quickly and sent photos updates as well. Thank you for the excellent service!”
“Ella is so amazing and sweet with Odin! Odin is always super excited when he see her. She is so very accommodating and is always ready to take Odin in. He always comes back tired which is a great plus on days where I'm too exhausted after work. Thank you so much!”
“Shala had a great time with Kathleen! She played with another dog, rolled in the snow, stalked squirrels, ate treats, went for a long walk, and had a nap. What else can a dog wish for?”
About: I grew up having dogs and cats. I have been dog sitting, walking, boarding and cat sitting for my friends pets. I'm a dedicated and calm animal lover. Pet care is a already part of my daily routine. I care for my cat every day, making sure she’s fed and gets the attention she needs. I’m used to scheduling my time around pets’ routines, whether that means visits, playtime, or medication when needed. I own my home, so visiting pets will be in a calm and safe environment. I make sure they have plenty of attention and never leave them unattended during visits. If a visiting kitty needs their own space, I can provide a quiet, separate room.
About: Salut 😊 Les animaux ont toujours eu une grande place dans ma vie et j’adore prendre soin d’eux comme s’ils faisaient partie de la famille. Je suis une personne douce, calme et attentive, et je prends le temps de m’adapter à la personnalité et aux besoins de chaque animal. Que ce soit pour une promenade, une visite à domicile ou une garde, votre compagnon recevra beaucoup d’attention, d’affection et de patience. Je comprends aussi que ce n’est pas toujours facile de laisser son animal à quelqu’un d’autre, donc j’envoie volontiers des nouvelles et des photos pour vous rassurer pendant votre absence 😊 Je suis à l’aise avec : * les chiens énergiques * les animaux timides ou anxieux * les chats * les routines et consignes particulières * les demandes de dernière minute selon mes disponibilités Mon objectif est que votre animal se sente en sécurité, aimé et confortable pendant votre absence ❤️ Je cherche à bâtir ma clientèle, donc mes tarifs sont actuellement plus avantageux 😊 Au plaisir de rencontrer votre compagnon ! 🐾 Prendre soin des animaux fait déjà partie de mon quotidien. J’aime intégrer les promenades, les visites et les moments de jeu dans ma routine, et je prends le temps de m’adapter aux besoins de chaque animal. Que ce soit pour une courte visite ou une garde plus longue, je m’assure qu’ils reçoivent de l’attention, de l’affection et une présence rassurante. Je prends soin des animaux avec beaucoup d’attention, de douceur et en respectant leurs habitudes. Chez les propriétaires, je m’assure de suivre les consignes données (nourriture, promenades, jeux, médicaments si nécessaire) afin que l’animal reste dans sa routine et se sente en sécurité dans son environnement. Lors des promenades, je m’adapte au rythme du chien et je veille à ce qu’il dépense son énergie de façon sécuritaire et agréable. Pour les visites à domicile, je prends aussi le temps de donner de l’affection, de jouer avec l’animal et de vérifier qu’il va bien avant de repartir. Si l’animal est accueilli chez moi, je lui offre un environnement calme, sécuritaire et confortable, avec des moments de jeu, des promenades régulières et beaucoup de présence afin qu’il se sente comme à la maison.
“Debbie and Greg are always great sitters. Our Izzy is so excited to see them when we go over and is very happy and calm when we pick her up. She has separation anxiety but she feels right at ease when she is with them.”
“I’ve booked with Clayton multiple times now for Maki and he’s been great every time. He’s flexible with scheduling and it’s clear Maki enjoys her time with him. Would recommend to anyone looking for a sitter”
“5 stars for Zahrah! From our first meet-and-greet, it was clear she truly knows small dogs. Her townhouse was spotless, welcoming, and stocked with toys that Toby claimed immediately. Best of all, he came home happy and still full of energy, not bored and exhausted. We’d trust her again anytime, even overnight.”
“Grace is my dog’s new best friend! She is a great communicator, flexible on schedules and really truly loves dogs. My dog now freaks out when the carrier comes out as she knows she is going to see her friend Grace. Would highly recommend!”
“Micheline took care of Merlin for the first time and i always worry because Merlin has anxiety and he is a Velcro dog. Micheline came to our house to meet Merlin and you can tell right away that she is a dog person. After meeting her, I was very comfortable in leaving Merlin in her care. Both her and her husband are fantastic. Thanks Micheline for taking care of Merlin.”
“Shernaaz and her husband took fantastic care of Pablo, and were so happy to've met him and taken care of him! Communication was a breeze, pick up and drop off were really smooth, and they were very accommodating. I look forward to booking them again in the future.”
“Sophie did an excellent job watching my puppy, Kipo. She was very communicative, attentive to Kipo's needs, and send multiple updates through the day. She even washed Kipo's paws to remove dirt and salt after her walk. I could tell when I picked her up that Kipo had a wonderful stay and really took to Sophie.”
About: Hi my name is Debbie. I retired from the insurance industry in 2021. Around that time I took a course for dog training, as well as Dogsafe first aid. I have had dogs and/or cats almost my whole life. I currently live with 2 cats. I only care for only 1 or 2 dogs at a time, so your dog gets lots of individual attention and a calm environment. I am retired so I have lots of time to care for your fur babies . I can provide lots of walks, dog park outings and cuddle time. I will visit your cat in your own home. Care will depend on individual needs but typically i will fill water and food bowls and clean litter.

“Nooki et Isabelle ont eu une super ballade. Le premier contact a été excellent. Nooki lui a tout de suite fait confiance et semble s’être bien amusé. Isabelle est douce et montre de l’assurance avec les chiens. Elle a su bien s’occuper d’elle parfaitement. J’ai reçu des photos et des vidéos de leur ballade, ce qui était très rassurant pour une première fois. Merci beaucoup! Et a très vite.”

Client’s home: I believe pets feel safest when their routines are respected. Before each stay in your home, I take the time to learn your dog's habits, favourite words, feeding schedule, medications, exercise routine, and any special needs. I'm comfortable administering oral medications (pills and oral syringes), checking for and safely removing ticks after walks, wiping muddy or snowy paws, towel-drying after rain or swimming, cleaning food and water bowls, and handling the occasional "oopsie" with patience and good humour. I pay close attention to changes in appetite, mobility, energy, or behaviour and will let you know promptly if anything seems unusual. I'll also send regular updates and photos so you can enjoy your trip knowing your companion is safe, comfortable, and well cared for.

“Kayla is wonderful with our 7 month Rottweiler. She was proactive about teaching street manners without us asking and our puppy always came home happy and fulfilled. Very good communication and reliable. We can tell she really cares and is educated on dogs.”
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: Hi! I'm Angela. I'm 26 years old and I'm a student at Carleton University. I love animals very much (especially dogs and cats) and I look forward to taking care of your pet(s)! I'm located in the Nepean area of Ottawa and I am able to relocate for your pet’s needs. I was born and raised in Toronto where I grew up with several dogs in my lifetime. Right now, I have an 11 year old cockapoo named Zeus (he doesn't live with me) so I have tons of experience with dogs and their many, many needs! Zeus is also a senior citizen with hip dysplasia, so I understand the importance of patience and gentleness when it comes to caring for senior dogs and cats. I take pride in making sure that the dogs I'm taking care of are always walked, exercised, fed/well-rested. All dogs are welcome! I provide basically all services offered on Rover. As a settler in Ottawa, I recognize that I am on the traditional, unceded, and unsurrendered territory of the Anishinaabe Algonquin Nation. I offer free compassionate care for Indigenous dog owners, and discounted rates for low-income or disabled dog owners. Ask me about the free services I provide! (E.g bathing, playtime, etc). I look forward to caring for your lovely pet(s)<3. I'm currently a part-time student at Carleton University. I'm in 2 classes - one on Monday, and one on Wednesday. Other than that, my availability is quite open. I accept same-day bookings. I have a fenced yard and a big schoolyard very close to where I live - I'm extremely active, so frequent walks are my speciality. Younger dogs or highly active dogs are more than welcome. Senior dogs, or doggies who require more frequent potty breaks are also more than welcome.
About: I have taken care of my cat for 10 years. His name is Miles and he the most lovable cat you you will ever meet. I love animals and animals should always be treated with love, care and respect. I have taken care of different type of dogs throughout my life, small to really big dogs. Animals are just like us in a way, all they need is love and attention. Cats and dogs are our babies and its it's importmant to always have a structure in they're everyday life. . When i have other Dogs or Cats I make sure to set timers so they are able to go for walks, use the bathroom, have nap time, play time and always making sure that they are eating food in a timely manner and also food that is good for the them. I live in an Condo where they can have access to the balcony to get fresh air and sun but it is fence so no animals can go over. I also have a cat and he's super very friendly and loves to cuddle. I always take time to play with animals. its very important to give them as much attention as possible. I also play dog or cat shows. Believe it or not some animals love it. I currently work at home so it works perfectly when watching any animals. Also easy for when the owners would want an update on their love ones. I love to play with animals. They are part of us and its important to show affection and love to them. It's important to know your animals and treat them with respect as well as follow how the owners care for them and imply that as well. Making them feel comfortable is important.
About: I grew up with dogs and have always considered them family. Our first dog, Sasha, was adopted four months before I was born and had significant behavioural needs. She was my best friend for thirteen wonderful years, and caring for her taught me patience, attentiveness, and how important it is to meet each dog where they are. Since then, my family has had two more dogs, and I’ve gained experience caring for seniors, managing specialized diets, preparing food, and handling unexpected veterinary concerns. Our current dog, Zyler, has canine megaesophagus and requires specialized food preparation and feeding techniques. He’s a lot of work, but he’s also the absolute love of my life! I’m comfortable following detailed care instructions and taking the time to make sure each dog feels safe, comfortable, and cared for. I am a full time student. I have 3-5 hours of non-negotiable commitments during the week, but I am a homebody and I can be around constantly outside of synchronous in-person classes. I am free Tuesdays. Saturday’s and Sunday’s without restrictions I care for pets by taking my cues from your animal. Having been a foster volunteer, I am aware of signals and cues and how to respect an animal’s boundaries while caring for their needs. I am the cleanest, most respectful house guest and will leave the place immaculate. I will respect homeowners predefined boundaries while providing as much play and cuddles possible.
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.
About: Je m'occupe de chiens depuis mes 11 ans, je vis en ce moment avec un chiwawa de 11 ans et un chiot Pitsky (mix de pitbull et de husky) de 13 semaines. Je travaille en ce moment a temps partiel et en vu des vacances, j'ai beaucoup de temps libre pour garder vos animaux. De plus, je suis étudiant au cégep donc j'ai des vacances plus longues. Je vais garder vos animaux selon vos critères et vos demandes. Par exemple le nombre de marches voulu, les besoins de nourriture, le type d'environnement, etc.
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 also live near parks and pet-friendly walking areas, which makes it easy to provide regular outdoor exercise and enjoyable walks. I understand the needs and behaviors of animals, and I would adapt my daily routine to the schedule and specific needs of your pet. 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.

“Ella is caring and amazing! She provides daily itinerary and it made it really clear. She provides updates throughout the day and easy to reach. I would definitely recommend!!”
“It’s Elie’s second stay with Bruna and she absolutely loves her time there. She always comes back tired and happy. Bruna is truly amazing to deal with. She’s flexible, transparent and she sends lots of updates. Special mention to Peroggie, who Elie seems to like very much!”
“This is clearly a “labour of love” for you and it shows. Fionn had such a great time. My energetic guy had a long, sound sleep last night which highlights how much fun he had with you all. Thank you for taking such fabulous care of him! It means so much to know he is in good hands.”
“Kelly and her son were great with my dog. They sent me pictures and updates to let me know how he was doing. This was my first time using Rover and Kelly was the perfect fit for me. I felt confident with her right away. Thank you!”
“My dog Billy stayed with Lucas and Thyara for 5 days in their beautiful home. Lucas and Thyara are very friendly. They were very welcoming to Billy. They are very caring couple, they wanted to know all about him. They sent me pictures every day, I liked that. I can tell he enjoyed his stay. I would give them my highest recommendation. Thank you Luke and Thyara !”
About: Depuis l’âge de 4 ans, les chiens font partie intégrante de ma vie. Mon premier compagnon m’a accompagnée jusqu’à mes 18 ans, et depuis, je n’ai jamais vécu sans chien. J’ai côtoyé plusieurs races, du Yorkshire à l’American Staffordshire, et j’ai également eu quatre portées, en plus d’avoir assisté à de nombreuses mises bas. J’ai été famille d’accueil, j’ai fait du sauvetage et j’ai relocalisé des chiens et des chats abandonnés en plein hiver lorsque je vivais à la campagne. L’univers canin est une véritable passion et un mode de vie. Si je pouvais adopter une dizaine de chiens, je le ferais sans hésiter, mais offrir mes services de pension est la meilleure façon de combler mon cœur tout en aidant d’autres familles. Nous vivons sur plus de deux acres de terrain, en pleine campagne et loin des routes principales, ce qui offre un environnement sécuritaire et idéal pour les chiens en pleine nature. Chaque matin commence par une marche de 30 à 45 minutes avec ma meute, suivie d’une période de jeu pour se dégourdir et socialiser. Je m’adapte à chaque animal comme s’il était le mien (rythme, besoins, personnalité, niveau d’énergie). Tous les chiens reçoivent leur dose quotidienne d’amour, d’attention et de stimulation. Mon expérience en reproduction, en socialisation, en sauvetage et en gestion de meute me permet d’offrir un service attentif, sécuritaire et profondément bienveillant. Un vrai foyer temporaire pour vos compagnons! Je suis étudiante à mon propre rythme, ce qui fait que je suis à la maison toute la journée. Notre routine est stable et bien organisée : nous avons quatre enfants une semaine sur deux, ainsi qu’un berger allemand de 1 an et demi, Whiskey, qui adore avoir de la compagnie. Comme je dispose de beaucoup de temps libre, accueillir des chiens s’intègre naturellement à mon quotidien. Whiskey serait ravi d’avoir des amis à quatre pattes, et moi de pouvoir offrir un environnement sécuritaire, stimulant et chaleureux aux chiens du quartier. J’ai remarqué qu’il y a peu d’options de pension dans notre secteur, alors j’ai décidé d’offrir aux propriétaires une solution de proximité. Je souhaite développer mes services selon la demande, car j’ai toujours rêvé de créer une petite pension canine. Rien n’est plus gratifiant que de permettre à des chiens de se dégourdir, de socialiser et de s’amuser pendant que leurs humains sont au travail ou doivent s’absenter pour un week‑end et ont besoin d’une solution de garde fiable et chaleureuse.. Je serai là pour prendre soin de vos compagnons comme s’ils étaient les miens. À la maison, les chiens évoluent dans un environnement spacieux, sécuritaire et pensé pour leur bien‑être. Nous avons plus de deux acres de terrain en pleine campagne, loin des routes principales, ainsi qu’une maison de 1 660 pi² avec deux grands salons. Cela nous permet d’accueillir confortablement des chiens de toutes tailles et de séparer les groupes selon leur énergie, leur personnalité ou leurs besoins, notamment pour les pensionnaires qui restent la nuit. Même si notre cour n’est pas encore clôturée, les chiens ne manquent jamais d’activité physique ni de stimulation. Les sorties se font en laisse, en petits groupes, ou sous forme de jeux encadrés comme le lancer de balle. Chaque chien reçoit sa dose quotidienne d’exercice, de socialisation ou de repos selon son tempérament. Pour les moments plus calmes, un espace intérieur douillet avec musique jazz est disponible pour les amateurs de sieste. Nous sommes déjà en processus de soumission pour clôturer une partie du terrain afin de créer un véritable espace de parc canin directement sur notre propriété. Mon objectif est d’offrir, à l’intérieur comme à l’extérieur, des zones adaptées où les chiens peuvent se dépenser, jouer et interagir en toute sécurité, sans être constamment tenus en laisse. J’ai à cœur le bien‑être de chaque pensionnaire. Je m’adapte à chaque chien comme s’il était le mien. Ici, ils reçoivent attention, affection, structure et sécurité — un environnement où ils peuvent vraiment s’épanouir. Aidez‑nous à grandir et encouragez notre petite pension familiale : chaque chien accueilli contribue à faire évoluer notre projet et à créer un lieu encore plus sécuritaire et stimulant!
“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! ❤️💜🩵”
“This was my first experience with Rover and Mahnazand I must say I am impressed. Her level of care for our two cats and her willingness to go the extra mile really help us feel confident that they were ok. We will keep uusing her services every time we #travel on extended stays. She watched them for two weeks and sent pictures and videos everyday so they could see them and what’s app so they could see us. Thanks again for everything.”
“Olivia and Sheyla took great care of my fur baby for a week. They communicated regularly and sent regular photos and some videos. I really appreciate the consistent updates throughout my time away. Would recommend!”
“Qianzhi is lovely! She gave me regular updates and sent pics and videos of Louie. I felt comfortable leaving Louie with Qianzhi and would definitely book with her again.”
“Jasper can’t stop talking about her stay with Emily & Alison! Their communication was excellent, our dog was walked, loved, and she can’t wait to go back! Thank you Emily, Alison & Family!”
“Bella was relaxed and well exercise when I picked her up Cristina was wonderfully flexible about my pick up times and accommodated my needs that changed. This was my first experience with Rover and I’m very happy with it.”
“Great experience with Catherine. Lots of updates throughout our time away to let us know how Cooper was getting along. Catherine is a very warm person who clearly cares about the animals she cares for. I know Cooper would have enjoyed his time with her kids and family as well.”
“As a first time user of Rover, I did not know what to expect. Gerald was great at explaining the process and we had a wonderful experience from start to finish. It is clear that Gerald loves animals and treated Ollie like his own, even reassuring us that things would work out fine when Ollie was a little stressed the first day of his stay. By the end of the week, Ollie clearly felt at home, not sure whether he wanted to stay with Gerald or go home. Thanks again, Gerald, for taking such good care of Ollie. We will definitely be back the next time we need someone to look after Ollie.”
“Shanice was very accommodating with my cat’s needs. She made sure that he had a comfortable and quiet place where he had access to everything he needs. She was also a very sweet person, and I would definitely book with her again.”
“Rocko was in great hands with Madison over the month of July!! I was so worried he would be sad being away from us for so long but it seemed quite the opposite!! He definitely had a blast. Madison was so kind. 100% recommend if you’re looking for a sitter in Vancouver. She’s the first we’ll be reaching out to when we head out of town next!”
“Debbie took great care of our two dogs over the weekend. We dropped off our senior lab and our energetic teen retriever— and they settled in great. She provided updates, photos, and was easily reachable/ easy to communicate with. She seemed to have great experience with not just dogs but animals in general. We’d book with Debbie again without hesitation.”
