“Tanis was absolutely phenomenal! Her communication was A++, and our fur baby spent 10 days being so loved and well cared for. It gave us total peace of mind and allowed us to truly enjoy our vacation without a single worry. I would highly recommend Tanis to anyone who wants a stress-free pet stay. I truly can’t say enough good things about how wonderfully our pup was treated!”

“This was our first time using Rover. Nicole was fantastic. Daily updates with pictures, videos, and messages and we had absolute piece of mind that Emmy was in great hands while we were on vacation. She was spoiled rotten with walks, car rides, playtime, and cuddles. Will definitely ask Nicole to watch her again!”

“Charlotte was exceptional during our vacation in tending to my little Jasper. I received at least one update daily and kept in touch often throughout the week. Jasper was so spoiled I wasn’t sure if he would want to come home 😂 Ruger is also the best big buddy for even my 12lb pup, and was so happy to have another dog to keep him busy! Feels going having a reliable sitter here in a new city for us 😊”

“Shavon was a dream to work with! Usually friends watch our dog, but were unable to. Shavon eased all our nerves before, and kept in frequent contact during the stay. Her home was inviting and set up to accommodate dogs. Our kids lived seeing the daily picture updates of their beloved pupper. 10/10 would recommend!”

“Alyssa was amazing! I was so nervous to meet & greet with her as our one pug can be nippy at new people. We arrived at her house and our pug’s tail was wagging so much! We booked her for one day and our fur babies were well treated. They loved her deck & fenced backyard! Will definitely rebook with her again!!”

“John and Lynda took excellent care of our husky shepherd last week for the first time. They sent us picture updates and messages during her stay. We could tell she was very comfortable and having lots of fun too! Their yard was perfect for her to run and play in.”

“Rebecca was amazing! She responded right away, was very professional and I just know Jet loved staying with her! I would recommend her to anyone and I will definitely rebook with her again in the future!”
“I will be booking these sitters whenever I travel. My little Yorkie had a strange life before I adopted her recently. She is scared of everything, became glued to my hip the moment I got her, and hadn’t lived a normal dog life. She is afraid to trust others. I hated to have to take her from her new home so soon and leave her with someone else. But Pratheeksha and Nilaykumar were fantastic! Extremely patient as she slowly warmed up to them. They sent me pictures and notes frequently so I could see she was doing well. I was only gone two days and while she was excited to see me, she clearly had enjoyed her stay. She hates my car because every time she gets in it she has new scary experiences - vets and going to strangers homes. I knew she had been happy with her stay because her excitement at seeing me was short-lived when she realized we were getting in my car. She turned right around and ran back up the steps preferring to stay with her new friends rather than face the unknown horrors the car could bring! 😁 Fortunately for her - the trip was straight home. And as soon as her belongings were back in their places, she quickly returned to trusting me. So I knew her time away had been good. (And full of the one on one attention she needs!)”

“Amazing! This was my dogs first time being watched by someone new and Ruth was amazing with him. She took him for many walks and kept me updated with lots of pictures. I didn’t have to worry at all for the entire weekend my dog was at Ruth. I would highly recommend her for dog boarding and walking!”

“Charmaine is an excellent pet sitter and clearly showed my pet all the love and affection he needed while I was away. She is very communicative and provides daily updates to show how my pet was doing. I had no issues whatsoever and highly recommend her!”

“Lindsay was genuinely the best option for our puppy Fez! Her family provided such a welcoming and loving environment for him- I could tell Lindsay's entire family fell in love with him and were sad to see him go! Will DEFINITELY book with her again! He was so well cared for and I could genuinely sense that while on my 8 day vacation, I was not stressed or worrying about him at all- he was in such good hands!”

“We have used Rover a few times in different cities and all have taken care of our dogs as thought they were their own. Mark is no exception and Mark has gone beyond our expectations to care of our dogs. Mark obviously loves dogs and enjoys his time with them.”

“Alyssa did a fantastic job with our dog, giving us the peace of mind that he was safe and well looked after. Plus she sent us pictures of him regularly. We would definitely work with Alyssa again!”

“Wenyu and his partner are wonderful people who took great care of my dog, Rex. We met at the park for a visit prior to confirming the booking to ensure it was a good fit, and it was clear immediately that it was. After five days away Rex was his normal self. I would not hesitate to book again.”

About: Hi, name is Michelle! I have a passion for animals of all types! I was in the pet industry for over 4 years caring for many different types of reptiles, all small animals, birds, fish, cats, dogs, you name it! I love every critter out there and treat each one likes it’s my own. If you need someone to look after your pet, take it for a walk or even just check in while you’re away or at work I’m your girl! I also have a lot of experience with administering medication and watching pets with special care. I’m reliable for you and patient with your pets. Im excited to cuddle them, love them and take care of them for you. A house is not a home without a pet🤍 I work in real estate with my husband so my schedule is very flexible and I do most of my job from my computer so I have ample time to spend with your furry friends. Although I had to technically select that I live in an apartment I actually live on the main level of a warehouse condo with private access, a yard and a garage!

“Jana was very helpful, our dog recently had surgeries and had a long list of things we needed her to do and watch out for. She did them all and was very helpful and communicated great.”

“We recently boarded our cat with Ruth for a week and we could not be happier with her service. She took phenomenal care of Blue and provided us with multiple daily updates and pictures of our boy. I really cannot say enough good things about how Ruth handled our cat. 10/10 service. We will definitely be contacting Ruth again in the future when we need a sitter.”


About: My cat experience has grown significantly over the past few years through regularly house-sitting for my brother and a relative, who, between them, have three cats. I've become familiar with their routines, personalities, and independent nature, and I'm comfortable providing attentive but low-pressure care, which I've found cats tend to appreciate the most. If your feline friend is more socially active - that's pawfect! I adore vocal and playful cats and will always be up for tossing around their favourite toy with them!

“Rebecca was accommodating to my cat's difficulties in new spaces and had a nice private space where she could hang out. Friendly, kind service, I would definitely recommend Rebecca for boarding :)”


“We left our kitty at home for a week with Ali doing 2 visits a day. It was scary for us because we had never left our kitty for more than just a weekend. Ali kept us up to date on how kitty was doing which gave us peace of mind on our vacation. When we got home kitty was in great shape and clearly well loved. You’d hardly know we had been gone for so long! Thank you again Ali!!!”

About: I have had pets my whole life! As well have taken care of pets for family and friends, I am able to administer insulin to cats as my brothers is diabetic and I have been providing this care when he needs it! I have also dealt with my fair share of super nervous pets, who take a little bit of time to trust but always end up the sweetest. I am a full time worker, with 2 set days off that I am able to use to care for pets. I am also able to attend to pets after I finish work. Pets, belly rubs, ear and chin scritches. Taking them for walks, or just playing with them. Lots of pet cuddles as some require lots of affection
“I would highly recommend Sarah, she really helped me out when the lock on my door was frozen and she was not able to get in to feed beans. She made multiple trips before she was able to get in so that I didn’t have to drive home on the Holidays. Beans is a nervous kitty and Sarah still spent time with her and sent me a photo! Thanks so much Sarah for everything ☺️”
“Michelle was loved and appreciated by my kitties. She spent lots of time with them which was so important to me, and to them. She kept in touch with me regularly during the 7 days I was away, giving me updates and videos, which I really appreciated. My kitties are social and love attention. I think Michelle was just perfect for the job. She also left the house in fantastic shape, having cleaned and vacuumed. I will hire Michelle again for sure!”

About: I have 2 puppies back home, and have an absolute love for dogs, as well as cats. I live with 2 dogs as well as my own kitty named Ollie. I have had animals my whole entire life!

“🐾 This was our first time leaving our two dogs with Tanis. From our initial meeting I immediately felt at ease with leaving them in her care. Tanis is very attentive and obviously a genuine dog lover. I could not be happier to have found her and would not hesitate to book with her again. 🐾”

“Nicole clearly loves animals! I felt very comfortable leaving our dog there for the day. She got lots of pets and a walk and was clearly very comfortable based on the pictures I got! Nicole communicated very quickly, have already booked again!”

About: Animals have always been an important part of my life. As the owner of a Bernese Mountain Dog and a Shih Tzu mix, I have experience caring for dogs of very different sizes, personalities, and needs. I am patient, reliable, and attentive, and I understand how important it is for pets to feel safe and comfortable when their owners are away. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, maintaining routines, or simply providing companionship, I treat every pet as if they were my own. My goal is to give pet parents peace of mind while ensuring their pets receive loving and responsible care. Pet care is already a big part of my daily routine. I spend most of my time at home, which allows me to provide frequent attention, supervision, potty breaks, walks, feeding, and companionship throughout the day. I understand the importance of maintaining a pet’s regular schedule and will do my best to keep their routine consistent so they feel comfortable and secure while you are away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have experience caring for both dogs and cats, including large breeds and rescue animals. My home provides a calm and pet-friendly environment, and I always supervise interactions carefully. I follow each pet owner’s instructions regarding feeding, medications, exercise, and routines. I also have a fully fenced yard for safe outdoor time and understand how important it is to earn a pet’s trust and make them feel at home. As a pet owner myself, I know how difficult it can be to leave your pets with someone else, so I provide regular updates, photos, and communication for peace of mind.
“Tammy and her boys were great! We were in Regina for a graduation and she was able to watch Naslund for the day! Flexible in the exact drop off and pick up times. Allowed us to see the initial greetings between our pup and hers and it went so smoothly, they all started to play right away! I got updates on how it was going which included pictures, which was greatly appreciated! She even gave him treats (asked if it was okay first) and sent us with some homemade ones for the road! Would highly recommend ?”

About: Hi everyone, my name is Chelsea and I would love to take care of your pet. I had a dog until recently when she passed away. I love dogs and would love to have a dog to take care of and take for walks. I also own two cats who love other animals. I am happy to assist you in any way possible. I was off all summer but now I’m back to work as a teacher! I work Monday to Friday but I have weekends available. I also can come home during lunch breaks throughout the week! Unfortunately I don’t have a fenced yard but I live right next to a walking path. This path is great and has lots of grass.
About: I’ve been taking care of pet from my childhood at home and being a pet lover i make it my profession so for almost three years im working as an pet sitter Im currently working part time so Ive plenty of time plus i just love to play with dogs so I’ll do anything to play with them If you have an athletic or active dog, we are the hosts for you!!! Trips to parks (on and off leash), running the trails, and swimming in a Lake will happen every day. If your dog is less active, we can bring our activity level to where your dog is most happy and comfortable.

About: Dogs have always been a part of my life, and will always be! I have a masters degree in Animal Behaviour and am currently a vet student here in Saskatoon, SK. Leaving your pet in my care means unconditional love and playtime, daily recreation and walks and devoted attention and concern for any of their special needs. I have owned and taken care of both dogs of pedigree and adopted street dogs of all ages, from newborns to senior and blind doggies with mobility issues, to dogs with dietary and allergy needs. Leave your pup in my care knowing that I would take care of them like my own! (Also if you like, daily texts and pictures can be arranged to capture cuteness while you’re away!)
About: My family has always had dogs around, and growing up, I naturally took on a lot of the care over the years. This was not out of obligation, but because of the bonds I'd built with them. That foundation grew into a love for all animals, and hands-on experience looking after dogs and cats for friends and family; whether for a weekend or an extended vacation. I've also brought my dogs along on hikes and camping trips, so I'm quite comfortable caring for pets in a variety of environments, not just at home :) Your pets' care is my priority! I will deliberately keep my day(s) clear so the pet gets consistent attention, proper walks, and company throughout the day rather than being left alone for long stretches. I take the safety and comfort of every pet seriously. I am currently unable to provide care in my own home; however, I am more than willing to stay overnight at your home if requested. Before any booking, I'm happy to arrange a meet-and-greet in a neutral public space so you and your pet can get comfortable with me beforehand! During care, I will also keep my location services on so you can check in on walks at any time. Additionally, I will send pictures and/or videos throughout my stay so you are always kept up to date! I won't take dogs to dog parks or allow unplanned interactions with other animals unless you've specifically asked for that. I also make it a habit to walk through the space and clear any potential hazards, such as cleaning supplies, loose cords, anything within reach that shouldn't be. I fully understand leaving your pet in the hands of a stranger can be stressful, which is why I try my best to alleviate as much of that as possible so you, and your pet, can enjoy your time away.

About: Hi, I’m Diana a reliable and attentive dog owner with hands on experience caring for my own energetic 3-year old pup. I understand how important routine, patience, and positive energy are when it comes to keeping dogs happy and well behaved. I’m great at reading dog body language, managing different temperaments, and creating a safe, enjoyable walking experience tailored to each dog’s needs. Whether your pup needs a calm stroll, structured leash training, or high energy playtime, I bring care, confidence, and consistency to every walk. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. As a dog owner myself, I already prioritize regular walks, feeding schedules, playtime, and grooming. I enjoy staying active, so adding in more walks and pet visits fits seamlessly into my day. Caring for other pets feels like an extension of what I already love doing—being outdoors, staying active, and spending quality time with animals. It keeps me grounded, present, and joyful, and I treat every pet I care for like one of my own. Safety, trust, and comfort are always my top priorities when caring for pets. Whether I am visiting your home or hosting your pet in mine, I create a calm, secure environment where your dog feels safe and cared for. In your home, I follow your routine closely including feeding, walks, and rules so your dog feels at ease in their own space. I am respectful of your home, keep things tidy, and always ensure doors, gates, and leashes are secure. When pets are in my home, I dog-proof the space, remove hazards, and provide a relaxed environment with plenty of love, supervision, and structured downtime. My own dog is well-socialized and friendly, so your pup will have a gentle companion to keep them company if desired. With every pet I care for, I focus on trust, routine, and communication so you can feel confident your dog is in good hands.
