“I am very happy with the care my two dogs received while staying with Jemily and her family. It was so nice receiving videos and pictures throughout their stay so I could feel confident that they were having a great time and were being well taken care of! I highly recommend her if you are needing someone to care for your pets.”


“Maria did such a fantastic job taking care of my cat Jackson while we were traveling over the Christmas holidays. She sent me photo and video updates twice a day, so I always knew Jackson was safe and happy. I highly recommend Maria for you & your pets needs. I will be hiring her again. Thank you again Maria for the peace of mind the whole time Jackson was in your care.”


“Caitlin was amazing with our fur baby for the week we were away!!! He was well taken care of and she communicates very well with me. This was the first time we had ever been away from him for that long. Caitlin gave us a peace of mind and we were able to fully enjoy our vacation. She even gave him a bath and trimmed his nails for us. I would recommend her and will book with her again for any future boarding needs. Thank you so much, Caitlin!!”


“Shannon was awesome and was able to help us out pretty last minute. She sent us daily pics and vids of our pup which made us feel much better about leaving her with someone new! I will definitely be reaching out to Shannon in the future when I need a dog sitter!!”


“Jessica and her family were amazing! During our time away, Jessica sent regular updates, complete with adorable photos, which brought us such peace of mind. It was clear that Belle was having a blast and being well taken care of. The level of communication and transparency was just outstanding. I highly recommend Jessica and her family to anyone in need of a dependable, loving, and professional dog sitter. Your pup will be in the best possible hands, and you can relax knowing they are being treated like royalty.”


“We did a meet and greet initially. Mary kept us informed of Hunter and how he was doing as we started the process. She was excellent and Hunter seemed to enjoy himself once he was settled. Thank you Mary!”


About: I’ve always had a strong connection with animals from a young age. Dogs, cats, hamsters, rabbits, hedgehogs, guinea pigs, farm animals & reptiles - I love them all! Neighbours, friends and family have relied on me to care for and groom their pets. Walking, playing, brushing, cutting, bathing, feeding, and more are only some of the things I’ve done for their pets. I also have experience fostering cats and kittens for an organization during my time at University. I work full time from home but can easily walk or play with your pet throughout the day due to my flexible calendar! Weekends are also completely open unless shown in my availability. I can easily follow any instructions given to me for your pet. Does your pet need medication? Does your pet require special care? No problem! I have a 6 pound Morkie dog (Mika) that is 12 years old and very friendly. I work full-time from home, so I’m able to give your pet consistent care and attention throughout the day. My schedule is very flexible, and I’m typically available on weekends unless otherwise indicated in my availability. I care for pets in both my home and my clients’ homes with a focus on safety, routine, and individualized attention. In my home, pets are treated like part of the family. I provide a calm, supervised environment with plenty of affection, playtime, and potty breaks. I follow each pet’s specific feeding schedule, exercise needs, and any special instructions provided by the owner. I also ensure proper introductions with my own pets (a gentle senior Morkie and a friendly Sphynx cat) to create a smooth, stress-free experience. In my clients’ homes, I respect your space and follow all instructions closely—from feeding routines and medication schedules to walks, playtime, and maintaining house rules your pet is used to. I aim to keep your pet’s environment as consistent and comforting as possible while you’re away. No matter the setting, I always prioritize your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness. You can count on me to include some adorable photos after every service!

About: I used to have 3 cats, 2 dogs and 1 rabbit at the same time feeding them and playing all the time. I think I get a huge connection with animals and nature I am not working now, I hace enough time to take care of pets at any time, Even they can stay with me when picking up My daughter at school I have a space pretty Big where I could take them to a walk and run. Space at Home is affordable if they want to sleep or just rest.

“Amber made pick up and drop off quick and easy. She provided updates and photos/videos during our stay and accommodated us when we were running late. Would use her services again.”


About: I have two small dogs Sora and Kira. 11 years old and 12 years old who are friendly, loving , and spoiled girls. With a good balance of snackos and exercises to maintain proper body composition and not get too fat. Clean healthy water and food is so very important for your pets health and we go above and beyond to ensure the best for our pets and yours. I treat every animal as if it is our family member and make it as fun for them as possible. I currently own multiple businesses in Sarnia and have the luxury of working from home now, which gives me the opportunity to serve our community with more hours. I don’t have a traditional job and I can work remotely from my cell phone most of the time. We treat all animals with respect and courtesy, following the outline in which you lay out for care. I don’t smoke and being healthy is important for vitality and life for myself and all of our pets. We never want an animal to go without necessary care that they are accustomed to.

“Zayda loved staying with Melissa and Willow. She was easy to communicate with via the app, flexible with dropoff/pickup, and sent daily updates and photos. Zayda came home exhausted from her fun week of playing with Willow and happily slept all day. She was happy and content when we picked her up. 10/10 would reccomend, great location for those traveling from MI to Canada or vice versa!”

About: I have volunteered and worked over 10 years with an animal rescue. I have a lot of experience with different dog breeds, ages, personalities, and special needs. I have been a dog owner my whole life. I currently have one dog, a 9year old lab/heeler mix. She is friendly and loves to meet new friends! I currently work part-time from home which allows me to care for your dog full-time. I'm very open and flexible with schedules. I'm available for short or long term stays. I don't have a fenced in yard, but I do have 3 acres for your fur baby to run around and play. I will also akways keep your dog on a leash outside if needed. My home is a caring and loving environment where your dog will feel safe and loved. My husband and I treat our dogs like our kids and will treat yours the same!

“Michael was amazing with our three dogs! I could tell when I picked them up that they had settled in nicely With him. He has amazing energy with dogs that is hard to describe, but is incredibly comforting while you’re away from your fur kids. We will be recommending him for every dog owner we know.”


About: I’ve owned dogs since age 13. I don’t currently have any ATM. But trying to get my doggy fix. Dogs are wonderful. I’m blessed to be able to have an opportunity to possibly love on your doggies. Due to physical reasons I’m not able ti walk to dogs but able ti let them out. I currently work full time but I’m fully remote. So my schedule is very flexible. I’m able to come to your home to watch your dogs. Due to physical limitations, I am unable to walk your dogs. But I have 15 years experience with dogs, and I absolutely love animals. I live in an apartment and I do not have a fenced in yard. Your dog and I would be more comfortable at your house. But if that’s not an option I will make exceptions for coming to my home.

Sarnia dog parents share their Rover experiences
Sarah and her husband were very kind and accomodating. Sarah gave my pup so much love and care and I received frequent updates and photos to share how he was doing. Communication was easy and prompt. My pup has a bit of separation anxiety and she made sure he was comfortable and safe and took care of him like he was her own. He came back to me happy and healthy and I am very thankful knowing he was in good hands. He loved her! I would recommend Sarah to anyone looking for a reliable pet sitter. I could tell she was knowledgeable about dogs and loves them very much.

Melissa and her dog, Willow, provided great care and company for Milo when he went there for a sleepover. She was more than happy for us to go for a visit before the sleepover and I could tell right away that Milo would be comfortable and happy. When we went back, he knew where we were and was excited to see them again. We will definitely use her services again.
