Liz was great with my baby! She sent pictures every day and was flexible about our drop off and pick up times. She made sure to keep my girl safe and comfortable and I could not be happier with her service! We will be back!

Bony is very kind and Bear seemed to enjoy his stay with her, her dog Winter and her kids! I had a last minute request and she was gracious to be able to take him on such short notice. She sent me a photo during his stay and kept me updated throughout the day. I will definitely be calling on her to dog sit again!

About: Hey, I’m Jeremy! An animal lover, outdoor enthusiast, and long-time pet caregiver. I’ve been walking dogs since I was 12 and have experience with both cats and dogs since before I can remember. I currently have a cat who I’ve cared for over the past three years, and before moving out on my own, I helped take care of our family’s pets, including three wonderful dogs over the years. I was involved in all parts of their care: daily walks, playtime, feeding, and of course, the less glamorous tasks like picking up after them. I'm patient, dependable, and always aim to make animals feel safe and loved. When I’m not spending time with animals, I work full-time in administration and graphic design at a funeral home. I’m also an officer in the Canadian Armed Forces, working with the Cadet Program. I work with youth aged 12 to 18 at the Sarnia Army Cadets, helping them build confidence, leadership, teamwork, and outdoor survival skills in a structured, military environment. I offer dog walking, play dates, house and pet sitting, and pet sitting in my own home. I love getting to know each pet’s unique personality and making sure they feel happy, relaxed, and cared for. I’m also a photographer — so don’t be surprised if you get a few great shots of your furry friend during our time together! Whether it’s keeping your dog active or making sure your cat feels at home, I treat every pet like family. I can't wait to meet my new fur friend! I work full-time on a 3-week rotating schedule, but I always know my availability in advance. My weekends rotate like this: one weekend I work, the next is a long weekend (Friday to Monday off), and the third is a regular Saturday–Sunday off. I usually have one weekday off as well, which I can use for walks or pet visits. Most days, I’m also able to pop by during my lunch break—usually between 1:30 and 2:30—for a quick walk, play session, or check-in. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have a fully fenced backyard for safe outdoor time and plenty of space inside for pets to relax. I do have a cat, but she keeps to herself and tends to avoid other animals, so there’s very little interaction unless your pet is especially curious. I keep my home clean, pet-friendly, and free of any hazards. Whether I’m caring for your pet in my home or visiting yours, I always follow feeding routines, leash rules, and any specific instructions you leave. You’ll also get regular updates so you can feel at ease knowing your pet is in good hands.

I have to say, Kate was awesome. She took care of our Bailey as if she were her own. Bailey got so much love and attention from Kate and she sent many photos and videos of their activities. I would highly recommend Kate for your family dog. We will definitely use her again for our next family retreat. Fantastic experience.

About: I’ve had both large and small breed dogs my whole life. I currently have a 3 year old Bloodhound mix named Otis and a 1 year old cat named Stars. Otis is the sweetest guy and is a great friend to his furry pals when he is boarded. I have fostered a dog before and Otis did great with him! I am a full-time teacher but I am available for weekends and most school breaks. I have some weeknight availability, as well! I am also available for summer care. I have a large fenced in yard in a quiet cul-de-sac and plenty of room in my home to host your fur babies. I also have an extra crate (large size) and doggy play pen at your request.

I also have a two year old poodle named Tony. he LOVES to play with other dogs. We go to the Fort Gratiot dog park often!

I am happy to visit your fur baby anytime of the day! I’m happy to visit holidays and weekends too :). In my home, pets are allowed on furniture and on the bed.

Cynthia cared for my dog Sandy as if she was her own pet. She asked questions so that my pet was made comfortable during her stay. She sent pictures and kept me updated during the stay which I totally appreciated. Cynthia is a caring, sweet person exactly and I would recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter.

About: I’ve always loved animals and owned dogs! I adopted my puppy from Puerto Rico 17 mos ago after seeing the homeless stray cat/ dog crisis while on vacation. He is my buddy and companion. I currently dog sit for family and friends. I have a pretty flexible schedule working from home so I can take breaks as needed. I feel lucky to be home with my pet every day. My home is near walking paths and parks to conveniently walk the dogs. I also have a large dog crate if needed. I typically walk my dog 2x per day.

About: I offer a boutique, low-volume dog care experience designed for dogs who thrive in a calmer, more personal environment. With 15+ years of experience, I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes, temperaments, and energy levels—including high-energy breeds like huskies. My setup is intentionally small (only a few dogs at a time) so each dog gets individual attention, structured play, and a stress-free environment—nothing like overcrowded daycare facilities. Dogs in my care enjoy: • Supervised indoor & outdoor time • Daily walks and structured play • A cozy, home-style environment • Optional fresh, homemade meals • Consistent routines to reduce anxiety I focus heavily on reading dog behavior and creating a balanced, safe group dynamic. Whether your dog is playful, shy, or needs a slower pace, I tailor care to them. This is ideal for owners looking for something more intentional, calm, and personalized for their dog—not a chaotic daycare setting. I offer flexible scheduling for daycare and boarding with a consistent daily routine to keep dogs comfortable. Because I keep my numbers low, each dog gets plenty of attention, structured playtime, and rest throughout the day. I’m available most weekdays and weekends, with drop-off and pick-up times arranged to keep transitions calm and stress-free. Dogs in my care are kept in a safe, structured, low-volume environment designed to reduce stress and overstimulation. I carefully manage group dynamics and only accept a small number of dogs to ensure compatibility. Pets are always supervised during play, with designated rest areas for downtime. I can accommodate crate routines if needed and follow each dog’s normal schedule as closely as possible. Cleanliness, safety, and a calm atmosphere are always my top priorities.

About: I have had all sorts of pets for as long as I can remember. I've taken care of pets with health issues, friends have relied on me to care for their fur babies when on vacation. I'm new to the area and my friend suggested I check out Rover to earn a bit of extra cash on the side, doing something I love. I am flexible with my schedule so I have lots of time I can spend with your fur babies. I have a fenced in yard for your pups to run around and have fun. I enjoy going on walks and would love to come walk your pup. I love curling up on a couch and reading a good book while cuddling with my new furry friends.

Angie was wonderful with Broly! This was my first time using Rover, and she made the whole experience much less stressful. She kept me updated throughout his stay with messages and photos, which I really appreciated. Broly can be a bit quirky and took some time to settle in, but Angie was patient, kind, and made sure he was comfortable. It was clear that she genuinely cared about his well-being. I would absolutely trust her with Broly again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable sitter.

Jeremy was absolutely wonderful with our Frenchie, Tucker! From the moment we booked, communication was easy and reliable. Jeremy kept us updated with photos and messages, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Tucker can be a little stubborn and has his own quirky personality, but Jeremy was patient, caring, and clearly experienced with dogs. We came home to a happy, relaxed pup who had clearly been well loved and well cared for. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with Jeremy again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy and attentive sitter!
