About: I have had a small dog for 10 years that lives at my parents house as they are retired and love having him around. I now have two cats living with me who are the most snuggly cats you'll ever meet! I am also frequently around large dogs and horses as I live with my fiance at the Stable he works at. I love all animals and understand how difficult it can be to take time away from them for other priorities. I am currently working from home just outside of Georgetown. I have flexible hours, including lunches. On weekends I usually go for hikes or walks outside, so I can easily fit my services into my schedule. I have a dog that was untrained when we first got him. I was able to crate train and potty train (peeing outside) with treats and encouragement. I am generally a calm person, which I have found helps as well. I would love to come for a introduction to make sure everyone is comfortable.

“Robin was amazing, came out to visit before we left on vacation to socialize with our dogs.. While we were on vacation she communicated with us daily and sent us pictures while she sat the dogs at our house. House was even picked up and clean when we got home. Was a real pleasure having her take care of our house. Will certainly book her again in the future when we need her help. Would definitely recommend her!”

About: Work-from-Home Dog Lover by Scenic Trails — Available all day for exercise, potty breaks, belly rubs, extra snuggles, and attentive loving care. I joined Rover because I love dogs. I work from home, which means I can give dogs lots of love and attention throughout the day. Every break is spent walking, playing, or giving belly rubs. I live beside the Collingwood trail network, so I often take dogs on longer, scenic walks through the trails or down by the water. Your pup will enjoy exercise, fresh air, and plenty of companionship. I have beautiful grassy areas around my building and access to safe, scenic trails, which makes walks enjoyable and varied for dogs. Inside, dogs are welcome to make themselves at home — whether that means snuggling on the sofa or lounging on the bed. I treat every dog like family, giving them attention, playtime, and comfort so they feel safe and loved at all times.

“This was my first time booking Jessica to house-sit and take care of my dog while I was away on a 10-day vacation. She was incredibly professional, reliable, and clearly has a natural connection with animals—my dog absolutely loved her and even missed her after she left! I came home to a spotless house and a happy, healthy pup. I would definitely recommend Jessica!”

About: For five years, my mom and I traveled the world through pet-sitting, which gave us the opportunity to see so many beautiful places and care for so many wonderful cats and dogs along the way. From playful puppies and kittens to sweet seniors, every pet had their own personality, routines, and little quirks. Now, being a bit more settled, I'm looking forward to continuing something I’ve always genuinely enjoyed: helping pet owners and getting to spend time with wonderful animals locally. Since I work from home, I have the flexibility to work around your schedule. And when house-sitting, it means your pets get plenty of company and attention throughout the day. My biggest strength is my ability to follow instructions and routines. I know that every pet has their own way of doing things, and I’m very happy to follow their usual schedule, whether that means specific feeding times, walks, playtime, or medications. I’m dependable when it comes to sticking to the details, so you can feel confident that things will carry on as normal while you’re away. I work from home, so I’m lucky enough to have a flexible schedule that allows me to easily make your pet’s routine fit into mine. I’m big on following directions and keeping things as consistent as possible, so I’ll stick closely to what you’ve asked me to do. Whether it’s walks, meals, medications, or anything else, I won’t introduce anything new or unexpected. My goal is simply to keep your pet safe, happy, and comfortable while you’re away.

About: I love animals, how can you not!? I would love nothing more than to provide great care for your furry family member while you’re away. There are lots of great hiking trails close to our house for walks and adventures. I understand the needs of animals and can communicate with them without words. They are magical creatures and deserve all the love. We promise to love on your pet and take the best care in your absence. I have a flexible schedule and work from home. Currently mornings start with a bathroom outing, followed by breakfast, playtime, another bathroom break, a hike and nap time, dinner, wind down, bathroom & bed -repeat : ) Routines are schedule around your existing rules and structures already in place. I have an arsenal of hiking trails and open concept house when your dog can roam and feel at home.

About: Hi, I’m Jaida! If there’s one thing people know about me, it’s that I love animals and am happiest when I’m around them. I currently work part-time as a dog groomer and previously worked at a dog daycare, where I spent my days supervising, training, and caring for dogs. Those jobs have given me experience working with dogs of different breeds and sizes, and helped me become comfortable handling different behaviours and situations. I also have two large dogs of my own, so I understand how important it is to find someone you trust to care for your pet. I’m currently an undergraduate student hoping to build a career working in veterinary medicine. Spending time with pets is something I genuinely enjoy. Whether your dog wants to spend the day playing or would rather relax beside someone, I’m happy to adapt to what makes them comfortable. Since I work part-time, I have a flexible schedule and can often make time for pet care throughout the week and on weekends. I’m reliable, easy to reach, and happy to send pictures and updates while you’re away. When caring for your pet, my goal is to make things feel as normal as possible for them. I’ll take the time to learn their routine and follow it closely, from feeding schedules to walks and any special instructions you may have. I know being away from their owner can be stressful for some pets, so I try to make sure they feel comfortable and secure while you’re gone. My experience in grooming and daycare has taught me how to read dog body language and recognize when a dog is excited, nervous, tired, or needs space. I’ll always pay attention to how your pet is feeling and adjust my approach to what works best for them. If I’m caring for your pet in your home, I’ll treat your space with respect and leave everything the way I found it. I know pets are family, and I don’t take that responsibility lightly. My goal is for both you and your pet to feel comfortable, whether that’s during a quick walk, a drop-in visit, or an extended stay.

About: I’ve cared for animals my whole life — from raising fish and hamsters to loving guinea pigs, cats, and dogs. Right now, I share my home with my sweet dog named Winnie who is a Miniature German Shepherd and an affectionate cat, named Luna, who I’m completely obsessed with. I love observing animals’ behaviors, understanding their needs, and showering them with the affection they give (and ask for!) in return. Whether your pet is playful, shy, or somewhere in between, I’ll make sure they feel safe, seen, and loved! Im working full time so the first thing I make sure to take care of is to feed my furbabies food and replenish their water dish. Winnie has been waiting all night to use the bathroom so I either send her out or if I have time take her on morning stroll to stretch those tiny legs. I also make sure to clean Luna’s litter no matter how un-used it was over night because of the princess that she constantly reminds me that she is! On my day offs I make sure to spend more time with Winnie outdoors whether that’s going to the dog park, extensive walks or just playing fetch in our neighbourhood! I also give Luna her attention by giving her bum scratches and pats, refilling her cat nip toy, or brushing her which she always enjoys. I will most likely be visiting my clients home mostly because Luna is uneasy around other animals. But following crating instructions, keeping doors closed when necessary, creating a calm and peaceful environment, not leaving garbages or food bags/containers or anything that can put either pet at risk.

“Karen is a caring, responsible and trustworthy dog-sitter. She sends lots of photos and is in communication with us while we are away so we always know our fur baby is in good hands. She takes Ace on many fun walks and he just loves her! We highly recommend her.”

About: I look like Hagrid, I love animals more than people, they can sense it and they love me back. Before the war in Ukraine, I regularly looked after my friends' pets when they were traveling or on vacation for three years. I'm currently looking for a job, so I have a lot of free time that I'm willing to dedicate to cats. Since childhood, I have loved cats, I always brought strays home from the street and asked my mother to leave them at our house) I regularly looked after my friends' cats in Ukraine when they were on vacation. For me, the most important thing is the comfort and freedom of the cat. Therefore, I am ready to carefully observe him and give him my care and love. If he wants to play with me, I will gladly do so...

“Ashley went above and beyond watching our two dogs for the week. Our older dog had an unexpected medical issue and Ashley identified an issue quickly and was able to bring our dog to the vet and coordinate giving meds for the rest of her stay. The house was left in better shape than when we left for vacation. Would highly recommend!”

About: I have a lot of experience with cats and dogs, but also with bunnies, turtles, birds like chickens, pigs, fishes. I am vegan, so besides being a caregiver, I am also an animal defender, advocate, protector and guardian. I go out of my ways to ensure their wellbeing, safety and joy are prioritized over anything else. I respect their space. I usually ask if there's anything else that i can do for their care. Example: washing their water fountains, blankets, organizing their spaces, fixing toys, preparing homemade treats. I often fall in love, and given the time, even the most independent cats end up creating trust in my presence and allowing us to grow a unique connection and bond. I am a dual citizen in the process of changing carreers, so my schedules are very flexible. I tend to hyper focus on new jobs at first to learn as much as I can about my new clients personalities, needs, dynamics and environment. I also offer them a safe and clean space so they can be themselves, express their needs, with mutual respect and some discipline. I ask as many questions as needed to learn about my client's needs and expectations. I take a lot of notes and communicate openly about what I can offer for their wellbeing and safety. I adapt my schedules according to their needs and the methods I work for their requests. I avoid toxic foods in the house and harmful cleaning products. I don't smoke at all and I like organizing spaces with health and safety in mind. I change their water, clean their bowls often to avoid bacteria growth, scan their bodies as needed for their health. When allowed, I share healthy snacks and can even prepare balanced meals as treats.
