“Vivian did a great job in taking care of my cat Eddie while I was as away on vacation. She kept me up todate with his progress with a variety of photos. It was nice to see him interacting with her and even showing her his belly. It gave me peace of mind to know my kitty was safe and in good company.”

“We left our 2 young cats in Tiffany's care for 10 days while on vacation. She did an excellent job caring for them and making sure we were always updated with texts, photos and videos! We really liked how punctual and reliable she was, good with communication and updating us on everything. Our kitties seemed to really like her and had lots of fun playing together. We'd definitely recommend Tiffany if you're looking for someone to care for your cats.”

“Clinton gave us detailed updates with humor and diligence. When the shy cat would not emerge he made an effort to find him to see if he was okay. He also noted the amount of food that was left which helped us to make meal plan decisions for finicky felines.”

About: I have over 10 years of experience with my own calm small dog Sir (10.5 years old, 20lbs, never destructive). I work from home, so your dog is rarely left alone. I only take one boarding dog at a time. My home has no kids, no cats. Dogs stay off furniture and bed. I follow your routine closely. I work from home, so pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I do two longer walks each day (morning and late afternoon). During the day, I can also offer quick potty breaks in between if your dog needs them. I follow the owner’s feeding and walking schedule closely. Since I only take one boarding dog at a time, your dog gets plenty of attention without being overwhelmed. Evenings are calm and quiet — perfect for dogs who like routine and rest. My home is calm, clean, and safe for small dogs. I do not have a fenced yard, but I take dogs out on a leash for potty breaks every 3–4 hours. I only take one boarding dog at a time, so I can supervise closely. There are no kids, no cats, and no other pets besides my calm senior dog Sir. I keep all cleaning products and small objects out of reach. Your dog is never left unsupervised outside or with Sir unless we are sure they get along.
“We had an amazing experience with Amir! He took such great care of our two cats and was incredibly patient, attentive, and thoughtful throughout the entire stay. His daily updates and lovely notes gave us so much peace of mind, and it was clear he genuinely cared about our cats’ well-being. We came home to happy, well-cared-for cats and a clean space. We wouldn’t hesitate to book him again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter.”

About: Hi! I’m Jennifer from Scarborough, a professional pet sitter with experience providing boarding, drop-in visits and dog walking to your fur family! I became a super pet lover after having my first Labrador Retriever as a child, and now I own a Labrador again-my little bundle of joy who keeps me on my toes every day! As a pet parent, I fully understand the needs of dogs and the challenge of leaving them at home. I’m passionate about providing love, care, and attention to make pets happy and safe. I hold a professional pet-sitting diploma and a pet first-aid certificate. I’m reliable, attentive, and treat every dog as if they were my own. 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.
“Joanna is just the best! She checked in on my two boys daily while I was out of town for a week. She was so thorough with understanding their needs and made sure they were given lots of love and playtime at each drop-in visit, in addition to feeding them, changing their water, and emptying their litter box. You won’t find a better petsitter! I’d give ten stars if I could!”


About: I've had ample of time taking care of pets through my experience dog walking my relatives cute dog Seb ever since he was 2 years old. He's so full of energy and would always chase down every moving object within a 10 metre distance. Having to rangle such a small force of energy has primed me to being an exceptional dog walker and overall dog sitter. I'm currently unemployed and have ample of free time to invest into pet sitting. I can do weekdays and weekends full-time and I'm willing to take short term or long term petsitting jobs. I act accordingly to the level of comfort that the pet displays in order to ensure the pet doesn't feel threatened and feels cared for. I take into consideration the eating schedule of the pet along with the times of the day they go on walks. I provide services such as handling litter box clean up, picking up dog poop, filling up feeding bowls, changing water bowls, playing with dog/cat toys and so on.
About: I’ve been caring for my family’s black Labrador mix for the past 3 years. Taking care of dogs has taught me patience and responsibility, and I genuinely enjoy spending time with pets. I can help with walks, feeding, potty breaks, playtime, and making pets feel safe and comfortable. My schedule is flexible throughout most of the week except Wednesdays. I have plenty of time to care for pets, including walks, feeding, playtime, potty breaks, and giving them attention and companionship. I treat every pet with patience and care, just like my own dog at home. I always try to create a safe and calm environment and follow any instructions carefully from pet owners.
“We were thrilled to arrive home and find our cat in a great mood, happy and healthy. That resulted from the great work Tara did while we were away for two weeks. She was methodical and followed all the instructions to a tee, helped maintain the house in a good state, watered the plants and was professional since the greet and meet! My first choice for the next time, most definitely!”


About: I have house/pet sat for many years. Started providing the service for family then moved onto to working for my friends cat sitting business. I love animals and would take care of your dog like they were my own. References available. I currently live in Scarborough but am downtown a lot so am pretty flexible about where I can do walks/drop ins. Hours are pretty flexible as well Cant wait to meet you and your dog(s). I do not take the responsibility lightly as I know dogs are part of the family. I had a maltese and shih tzu when I was younger and I miss them dearly. Please get in touch if you're looking for someone responsible and mature to help you with your dog(s) thank you Amanda
About: For me, pets are not just another being living at home but a part of family. Hence, I patiently learn, understand their character and needs so that I can provide the required care accordingly. As I am currently a stay at home wife, pet care is a big part of my daily routine. I ensure regular feeding, playtime, walks, and lots of attention. I make sure pets feel safe and comfortable by keeping a clean, secure space. I build trust with lots of love, regular meals, and playtime, using pet-friendly products to keep everything healthy.
“Jen was amazing with my dog. Had her scheduled for a year, and was always reliable and friendly. I'd highly recommend her for anyone looking for a walker, or someone to care for their pet!”

About: I had my own dog for 9 years and now look after my friends dogs when they need to travel and need a day of from dog parenting. I love it because it gets me outdoors which I love most spending time in nature with animals...animals give me comfort and a sense of happiness. I give them attention, talk to them like I talk to a child and show effection which in turn lets them trust me as a human.
About: I've grown up with dogs my whole life and currently have one dog at home, while my other dog lives with my parents — so I'm very used to caring for multiple dogs in different settings. I'm comfortable with feeding, walking, administering medication, basic training reinforcement, and senior dog care. Working from home means I can give constant attention and stick to your pet's usual routine. Whether your dog needs extra playtime, quiet companionship, or careful supervision, I have the experience and flexibility to provide it. I work from home full-time, so I’m around all day to care for pets. I currently have one dog living with me. Since I’m always home, I can offer frequent walks, playtime, feeding on schedule, and just company so no pet ever feels lonely or anxious. I have one friendly dog at home and work remotely, so I can supervise all pet interactions closely. I also provide quiet, separate spaces if a pet needs a break. Because I care for my other dog at my parents’ place, I’m experienced with making pets feel comfortable in different home settings.
“Felt like my pets were in safe hands. Melisa was very thorough, always asking if she had any questions. She went above and beyond. even brushed my dog, Yoshi, because he was shedding.”

Scarborough pet parents share their Rover experiences
To say Anyelka was EXCEPTIONAL is an understatement. I couldn't have asked for better care of my fur baby. She was punctual, caring,committed,kind,thorough, very loving and attentive. My first experience has been absolutely amazing. My mind was at ease my entire trip with daily reports, pictures, videos and even a Christmas photo shoot ❤️ Knowing I had such a compassionate, dedicated and loving person for my Simba was priceless. 5 stars ++++ Anyelka goes over above and beyond❤️

Kaloutha is wonderful to deal with, has fantastic communication skills (the photos are always marvelous), and has a wonderful way of keeping our minds at peace about taking care of our cat when we were away. We are grateful that she is as great with our cat as she is professional!
