âXinting and Xinyuan were amazing. Super patient, super responsible, and just really easy to work with. I needed someone to come by for two days to walk my dog NEOMI while I wasnât home, and they did a fantastic job. It had just snowed heavily the day before, but they still showed up and took her out, then dried her off carefully afterward. They also looked after my cat while they were here, which I really appreciated. And the best part â they sent me photos and videos every step of the way, so I always knew NEOMI (and my cat) were doing great. Really thoughtful and reassuring. If youâre in the Agincourt area and need help with your dog, Iâd 100% recommend them. Great sitters and genuinely good people.â

âClinton was on time to pick up Zeus. He communicated promptly on his arrival and sent me updates on how his walk and play time went. Zeus really seemed to have had a great time. Thank you Clintonâ

âAmanda made the effort to meet with me to understand Murphys needs and the instructions for each walk. So far Amanda had been very nice to Murphy and has taken my feedback on how to handle him and his excitement. Amanda is always on time and hasnât missed a walk!â

âI have a trip coming up in September, so Iâve been searching for a reliable dog walker or boarding service to care for my fur baby, Amber. As a first-time Rover user, Iâm thrilled I chose Natasha. Before our first session, she thoroughly reviewed the notes I provided, which was especially important since Amber can be a bit nervous and leash-reactiveâa challenge my dog trainer and I are actively working on. To ensure Amber would be comfortable, I arranged a âmeet and greetâ session with Natasha. During the walk, I explained Amberâs quirks, particularly her leash reactivity, and how to handle them. The session went so well that I scheduled a follow-up, which also turned out great. Iâm confident Iâve found someone I can trust, and Iâm looking forward to working with Natasha in the future!â

About: I've joined the volunteer which is to take care of the stray dogs that live on the mountain. I also have a dog, a bichon fraise. He is now three years old. I've had him since he's three months old. I really like to play with dogs, I often feel like I can really be good friend with dogs. I am now a full time student study at UofT Scarborough. I have classes during week day. But on the weekend. I'm not very busy. I will be very careful of what they are eating and also be very careful on their behavior. I won't let them get loose while walking and also keep them away from the cars.
About: I become a super pet lover ever since I had my first dog (Labrador Retriever) from childhood. I know it would be challenging to leave your pet at home when going to work, travelling, or even simply just away from home. I want to share my passion towards animals to provide the love and care that I can best provide and make them happy and safe. I own a professional pet-sitting diploma and pet first-aid certificate. I also speak Cantonese and Mandarin Chinese. I'm currently working from home with a flexible schedule, so I'll have plenty of time playing with your pups! I am available on the weekdays from 9am-5pm. Please let me know if your dog has any special needs that I can account for, whether they are allergic to anything, medications, are friendly with dogs and people, or any behavioral issues such as separation anxiety.

About: I've had dogs in my life for as long as I can remember. But more than thatâIâve rescued and cared for dogs who had no one else. Back in my home country, I would take in abandoned or injured dogs, help them heal, and give them the love and attention they deserved. Every one of them taught me something different: patience, empathy, trust. Some were scared. Some were full of energy. All of them just wanted to feel safe. Thatâs why when I care for someone elseâs dog, I donât just walk them or feed themâI try to understand them. I notice their moods, I respect their pace, and I treat them like theyâre part of my own family. Your dog wonât just be looked afterâtheyâll be loved. Right now, Iâm working a full-time job, which gives me the opportunity to dedicate my attention to the pets only weekends. I have a flexible schedule, so I can easily adapt to your petâs routine, whether that means early walks, cuddle time, or check-ins during the day. I genuinely enjoy being around animals and love making them feel safe, seen, and cared for. At the moment, Iâm not able to host pets in my home since I rent a room, but Iâd be happy to care for your pet in your home, where they feel safe and comfortable in their own space. Every time Iâve cared for pets in the past, Iâve stayed at their familyâs home, and it has always been a smooth and positive experience. I treat each pet with the same love and respect Iâd give my own. When it comes to safety and trust, I always begin by asking pet parents about their rules and preferences. Every animal is unique, and I make sure to follow their routines and needs closely. I truly care for every pet as if they were mine. Their peace, safety, and happiness are my top priority, because thatâs exactly how Iâd want someone to care for my own furry babies.

Iâm patient, reliable, and genuinely enjoy making dogs feel happy and comfortable. Whether itâs a long walk or playtime, Iâll treat your pup like family. I currently work part-time, so I have a lot of flexibility for pet care. If you let me know in advance, Iâm happy to adjust my schedule to fit your needs. Most days, you can book me without much notice except for Tuesdays and Wednesdays, when Iâm available only in the evenings. Any other day, Iâm open for walks, drop-ins, or sitting whenever you need. When caring for your dog, I prioritize safety and routine. Iâll follow your instructions closely and make sure your pet feels secure and relaxed. If Iâm walking your dog, I use secure leashes and stay alert to their comfort level. Iâm also comfortable crating if needed and will always treat your home and pet with respect.
âIt was my dogâs first time going for a walk with a dog walker, and Iâm so happy it was a great experience for him. Malaena is a sweet and caring dog walkerâmy dog bonded with her quickly. She was on time and respectful. Iâll definitely be booking more walks with her!.â

About: What sets me apart as a pet sitter is my personalized approach and attention to detail. While I may not have formal training, my hands-on experience with pets has given me valuable insights into their needs and behaviours. My genuine love for animals has been honed through years of playtime with my own pets and those of my friends, family, and neighbours. This experience has taught me the importance of patience, empathy, and creating a fun and safe environment for furry companions.My dedication and enthusiasm make me a loving and reliable caretaker for your beloved pets. With my part-time work schedule, I have ample time to dedicate to pet care, ensuring that your furry friends receive the attention and love they deserve.

About: I love all critters: dogs, cats, reptiles, hamsters, chinchillas, birds and fish. I've been a cat owner my whole life and have a cat at the present time so I will not board at my house. I am a dog walker and house sitter. I used to own a Bearded Dragon lizard and don't mind handling snakes. I believe pets are less anxious if when their owners leave, the pet can remain at home. I will walk dogs twice at least when I stay over night and provide a lot of attention. I am able to provide basic grooming for both dogs and cats. Because I have a car, I will take your dog to the Cherry Beach dog park for a long fun-filled excursion. Your home and your pet will be well taken care of by me! I am currently free to pet sit and/or walk fulltime. I have several clients at the present time, but, have a lot of free time to serve you. Please check the calendar for my upcoming bookings. Since I have a cat, I prefer to pet sit at your home. I also think it is better for the pet. He/she will miss you when you're gone so at least being at home is less stressful for them. Since I have a roommate my kitty, Oscar, is well taken care of when I am at your home loving your little ones. It's important to note that I like to keep in regular contact with you pet owners and inform you about what I and your pets are doing. I also like to send pics!! You just let me know how often you want to hear from me.

Scarborough dog parents share their Rover experiences
Rahul is very punctual and kind. He successfully walked our 80 pound husky, Bubba, who has a tendency to pull and get over excited around other dogs. Rahul asked necessary questions to ensure a successful walk. Bubba immediately took to Rahulâs friendly demeanour as well. It was so nice having Rahul as our first dog walker. We look forward to requesting him again in the future!

I canât recommend Viven enough! Sheâs an amazing walker and my dogs absolutely love her. Sheâs incredibly efficient, reliable, and always quick to respond â even to my late overseas messages and last-minute requests. Thank you so much, Viven, for helping make sure the girls get their walkies. Koko and Skie have a new friend now, and weâre so grateful for you! đđž
