House Sitting in Richmond Hill

“Such a lovely caring person. When searching through the Rover site it was difficult to pick who we wanted as we’ve never used this site and I must say we picked the right person. We have two cats and my oldest is 14 very timid and took to Solana right away. Thank you Solana for your loving care and all your wonderful updates while we were on vacation. We were blessed to have you and so were Karl & Oliver. Definitely recommend this lovely girl. Thank you Jim & Christine.”

“I couldn’t have asked for a better person to look after our large goofy boy. Mary went above and beyond to bond with Bubbs and get to know him before our booking. She was thorough, responsible and made me feel so safe and comfortable leaving our dog in her care. We received constant updates and left our home clean and tidy. We are so happy to have found Mary and couldn’t recommend her more!!”

About: I’ve been a cat owner for over 10 years—starting when I was just 6 years old and continuing throughout my senior year of high school. Currently, I own an Akita-Husky mix dog, whom I’ve cared for since he was 8 weeks old, thus giving me hands-on experience with puppies and house-training. Recently, I did a 2-week housesitting stay caring for a 15-year-old senior dog. In addition, I volunteer at PetSmart, helping look after stray and feral cats of all ages, including kittens, in their pet enclosure. Ultimately, I’m both a cat and dog lover. I enjoy caring for pets of all personality types—including feistier cats—as well as all breeds and sizes, from small to large. Currently have plenty of time to dedicate to looking after pets, specifically for walking (for dogs), feeding, playing with, and caring for them. It’s my priority to ensure the pets feel loved and cared for. With my current flexible schedule, I am available for several days of the week providing dog walking services, housesitting stay-overs, and drop-in visits. When caring for pet’s for housesitting, I always aim to follow their routine as closely as possible. I make sure pets are fed on schedule, walked or let out as needed, and give plenty of attention, playtime, and cuddles (if they enjoy that). I respect the client’s space and keep the house clean and tidy. For drop-ins and dog walking, I focus on making each visit and walk a positive experience for the pet(s). Walks are thus tailored to the dog’s energy levels and needs, whether it’s a short stroll or active playtime. I also pay attention to weather conditions and use proper gear to ensure their safety. I always take the time to get to know each pet’s personality and comfort level—whether they’re shy, energetic, or somewhere in between—so they feel calm and cared for while their owner is away.

“Casper and I are so grateful for you Tash. You take such good care of my Casper when I’m away on business, I am always looking forward to seeing the pictures, the morning and evening updates, and I love seeing the video of Casper eating her treat delectable from your hand! You have been a blessing in our lives, and I know I am leaving Casper in good hands every time.”

About: I have been dog sitting and dog walking for over a decade, I have worked for local businesses as a dog walker, I’ve been a dog owner for almost 8 years, and I know what dog need, love, attention, lots of walking, lots of petting, and someone that will care for them just like they were their own. My work is in the evenings between 3 PM and 8:30 PM, so I have lots of time during the day and lots of time at night to make sure that your little one is walked well and will be taken care of during the day while you’re at work! Whether it’s at your home or my home, my focus will be primarily on your furry friend, in a safe and happy environment so that they feel comfortable and it’s easy for them to adjust. I live near Mill Pond as well, so it would be a great opportunity to get a big walk around the pond!

About: I’ve always been the go-to pet sitter for family and friends, earning their trust to care for their beloved animals. I spent a month living with my sister’s Mini Pinscher and Bedlington Terrier, gaining experience managing their high-energy routines, including daily walks and consistent feeding schedules. I had experience in a year-long boarding of a tabby cat for a friend, mastering feline care and basic grooming. I can’t wait to meet more furry friends and give them the love and attention they deserve! I provide services in English, Cantonese, Mandarin, and those secret languages only the little cuties understand. I work from home two days a week and am usually home during weekends, giving me plenty of flexibility to dedicate to caring for your pets. Walks, play sessions and cuddles could be tailored to your needs. While I have more availability on these days, I’m also happy to accommodate weekday requests to meet your schedule. I closely follow any feeding, medication, or exercise routines you provide to ensure continuity in their care. I’m more than happy to provide updates and photos to reassure you that your furry friend is happy, safe, and loved while you’re away. For cat boarding, I'm living in a house with a fenced yard by myself. The house is quiet all the time. For house sitting, I'll treat your place with respect, ensuring everything is left clean and tidy.

About: My wife Abby and I are passionate dog lovers and we are proud parents of a 3-year-old mini Goldendoodle, Mochi. She has been with us since she was a 8 week old puppy. We love spending time with her—whether it's exploring trails, visiting dog parks, or simply some indoor fun, fetch the ball, hide and seek. When it's time to unwind, we all enjoy cuddling on the couch and watching TV together. Mochi is our family member, our kid. She is super friendly and loves other dogs. Our friends have relied on us to take care of their pups while they were away. We thus have hands-on experience caring for dogs of difference breeds and sizes, including a full-size Goldendoodle, Shiba Inu, Cockapoo, Westie and Pomeranian. Abby and me work as a team. So always somebody at home! We will send lots of photos or videos for update while your pup is staying with us! I’m fully home, which gives me the time and flexibility to provide attentive care for your pup throughout the day. On weekdays, we take Mochi out twice a day for 30 minutes each—once in the morning and again after work. If the weather is nice, we’ll also enjoy a midday walk to soak up some sunshine. In the summer evenings, we take Mochi to the dog park so they can socialize and play with other pups. After that, we wind down with some indoor fun, like a game of fetch or a cuddle session. On weekends, we love taking Mochi on trail walks, giving her a chance to explore new sights and smells while getting plenty of exercise. Whether it’s outdoor adventures or cozy indoor play, your pup will always be engaged and well cared for just like how we love Mochi! We have a fenced yard where pups can play and roam freely, and our super friendly dog Mochi is always up for a playdate! I work from home full-time, so your pup will never be left alone. To ensure the highest level of care, we only accept ONE dog per day, allowing us to focus entirely on their needs and provide lots of one-on-one attention.

“David stayed in our house and took care of our dog Bumba for 7 days while we were away. He demonstrated to be very responsible and caring. He followed all the instructions we gave for Bumba’s care, and provided detailed updates and photos every day. Bumba is a senior dog with especial needs and David really understood that and made us feel at ease during our trip. He not only took care of Bumba but also of our house. We will definitely work with him again!”

About: "Until one has loved an animal, a part of one's soul remains unawakened" - Anatole France. I have been a pet owner for more than 20 years. I currently don’t have any pets of my own, so I’m looking for pets that can use all the love I have built up for them. I have previous experience taking care of dogs of all ages, breeds and personalities. I have worked at pet stores, pet groomings and vet rooms which has allowed me to develop the skills necessary to interact with pets and read their body language. I’m also an avid advocate of volunteering and supporting foster homes to help animals looking for a FUR-ever home. But most importantly, I've been a passionate pet lover my entire life and can provide tons of fun and care to any pets willing to take it. I run my own businesses from home and I only take care of one pet at a time. I can provide regular walks and exercise. My home is a safe environment as your pet will be the only pet there (unless an owner has multiple pets). Before the stay, I will propose a Meet & Greet to ensure my home is a great fit for your pet.

“I can’t say enough good things about Shima! My dog is usually very shy and cautious around new people, so I was a bit nervous about leaving her for two days, But from the moment they met, I could tell there was something special about Shima. My dog immediately felt comfortable with her, which is very rare. Throughout the stay, she kept me updated and made sure my dog was happy, relaxed, and well taken care of. When I picked her up, she was calm, content, and clearly had bonded with her sitter. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing my dog was in such caring and capable hands. If you’re looking for someone who truly connects with animals and treats them like family, I highly recommend Shima. She’s truly amazing! ❤️”
