“Ashton was wonderful. She used her initiative to decide how to walk, our not walk our senior dog and ensure our 1 year old was well walked each day. She was punctual and ensured we got timely updates and photos. We highly recommend her services.”
“I was very happy to have found Alyce to take care of our home and our kitty cat Princess. From the moment I met her I knew she was one to care for sweet Princess. I had total trust in her abilities and had no worries while we were away.”
About: I have experience caring for pets with medical needs, and physical differences. I am comfortable providing oral medications by syringe or pills. Previously I have cared for pets who are deaf, blind, or have high levels of anxiety. I am willing to work with & understand their temperaments and personalities. My experience with caring for pets comes from owning my own pets, pet-sitting for friends, and assisting with pet care when I babysat for families. I’m currently working Part time & looking to supplement my work with pet care! I am available during the day for drops in or walks! I am available for short daily walks, longer weekly walks, playtime sessions with your active pup, etc. I am also happy to drop in to spend some quality time with your pet, give them some top up on water/food, and let them do their business!
About: Animals have always been a big part of my life, and caring for them is something I genuinely enjoy. Through my Veterinary Assistant program at St. Lawrence College, I have gained hands-on experience working with both cats and dogs, learning how to safely handle and restrain them, understand their behaviours, and recognize their individual needs. My education has also given me a better understanding of animal health, proper care, and the importance of making animals feel safe and comfortable. Outside of school, I have experience raising and caring for my own two cats and dog, which has taught me so much about the patience, time, and attention that goes into being a pet owner. From keeping up with their daily routines and making sure they are happy and healthy to getting to know their different personalities and quirks, I truly enjoy being around animals. I am a patient, caring, and attentive person who loves getting to know each animal and making sure they feel comfortable, loved, and well cared for. I currently work part-time, which gives me quite a bit of flexibility with my schedule. I have lots of availability during the afternoons and on weekends, but I'm also more than happy to communicate and adjust scheduling needs whenever possible. I'm always willing to accommodate where/if I can! I would care for pets in a client's home just as I care for my own, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I have a large-breed dog of my own who lives with me in an apartment, so we're very used to staying active through daily walks, trips to the park, and finding ways to burn off energy. This has taught me how important regular exercise, patience, and keeping pets entertained can be. I'm also comfortable with crating when needed, and I understand that every pet has their own routines, preferences, and needs. I would always do my best to keep their routine consistent, give them lots of attention, and make sure they feel right at home!

About: I have taken care of dogs since my family adopted our first miniature schnauzer when I was seven. Since then I have adopted two adult cats and have tried to spend as much of my free time as possible around animals of all kinds. I work full time, but am available for mornings, evenings, weekends and overnights. I work remotely two days for week and have some flexibility in my hours at my day job. My cats have been on special diets or medications at times and I am comfortable accommodating this. I can work with cats of any temperament, my own youngest was semi-feral when she joined my family. I am comfortable providing enrichment, crating and walking dogs of any size! I definitely have a soft spot for terriers!
About: I have over 5 years of experience caring for cats and dogs, including working as an Animal Care Attendant at a veterinary clinic and volunteering at animal shelters and dog daycares! At the veterinary clinic, I worked with dogs of different breeds, sizes, ages, and temperaments. My responsibilities included feeding, walking, administering medications as directed, and providing daily care and socialization for boarding animals. I also assisted veterinary staff with safe handling and restraint during appointments and procedures. Through these experiences, I've learned how important it is to understand each animal's body language, personality, and individual needs. I'm comfortable caring for energetic, playful dogs as well as shy or nervous pets who may need extra patience and reassurance. I'm genuinely passionate about animal welfare and hope to pursue a career in veterinary medicine. I'll always treat your pets with the same love, patience, and attention I would give my own! I have a flexible schedule and am happy to accommodate walks, drop-in visits, and quality time with your pets throughout the week! I understand how important consistency and routine are for animals, so I'll always do my best to follow their usual schedule and ensure they receive plenty of attention, care, and companionship while you're away. Your pet's safety, comfort, and well-being are always my top priorities! Through my experience working at a veterinary clinic and volunteering at animal shelters, I've learned how to safely handle animals with different personalities, temperaments, and needs. I understand the importance of respecting each pet's boundaries and recognizing signs of stress or discomfort. I'll carefully follow all feeding, medication, and care instructions, maintain a clean and safe environment, and provide regular photo updates so you can feel reassured knowing your pet is in good hands!
About: I’m calm, reliable, and attentive to each dog’s needs. I’ve worked with all breeds, including reactive dogs, leash pullers, and high-energy dogs, and I adjust my approach based on their behaviour and comfort level. I’m also comfortable reinforcing basic training and sticking to routines to keep dogs happy and safe. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine, and I’m able to be flexible with scheduling. I have a consistent routine and can plan my day around visits, walks, and check-ins to make sure each pet gets the time and attention they need. I’m reliable and make it a priority to stick to each pet’s schedule. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as consistent and stress-free as possible. I make sure they are safe at all times, follow any specific instructions closely, and keep a clean and calm environment. I’m very attentive to details like doors, leashes, food, and water to ensure everything is secure and comfortable for the pet. My goal is to build trust so pets feel relaxed and cared for while their owners are away.
“Jacob was great! I appreciate that he came beforehand to learn the process for food and medicines for Mia. He did morning and evening feedings on schedule- which I am sure Mia appreciated. (We loved the photos too!)”
Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Shannons Corners
Buddy had the best care while we were away. Normally, he’s pretty aloof and skittish, so we’re always reluctant to leave him. However, Katherine sent us regular photo updates of him living his good life, which put us at ease while we were away. I highly recommend!

This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone.
