Melanie cared for our rat terrier, Rosie, for 3 weeks in April, and we are thrilled with the experience! I was nervous because we had never left Rosie with anyone, and for such a long time. Melanie met with me ahead of time to let me & Rosie get comfortable with her -- I knew right away we'd be in good hands, and Rosie adored her from the start! Melanie sent lots of messages and photos every day, and we ended up chatting about everything from food and the weather to my houseplants. She followed my detailed instructions for treats, exercise, and dog food, and left our house spotless, even washed the towels & sheets. We highly recommend Melanie because she is a very responsible dog-sitter, and is truly passionate about dogs. I think Rosie would have gone home with her if she could, they really bonded with all that cuddling! We will ask Melanie to care for Rosie for all future trips.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of different kinds since I was 7. My family have relied on me to walk and feed their pets. Dogs and Cats need unconditional love and the best care. I have retired recently and love dogs and walking. Dogs love walking and it makes me happy to be part of their fun and excitement I live in the country and walk daily. A lease would be needed on quite roads to walk dogs. I live on 8 acres with bush trails and have a car to drive to customer homes to walk dogs.

About: Ever since I was a young girl animals have always been a passion of mine! I began at Age 10 with dog day-sitting and began to extend my experience into overnight pet sitting, stray animal rescue, trap and neuter, volunteering with local rescues and now work full time with animals. I have previous experience with a range of animals from dogs, cats, birds, bunnies, bearded dragons, hamsters, ferrets and even some wild animals! I have worked with many types of dog breeds ranging from 5lbs-175lbs and have acquired no issues in handling thus far. I also have background with puppies, disabled dogs (deaf/blind, incontinent, difficulty walking etc.) senior dogs, Pet CPR and First Aid (reacquiring certification) as well as pet behaviour (ie. people reactivity, dog reactivity, resource guarding etc.) and have never had issues with any pets in care. I take pride in the care I offer with the knowledge and understanding each dogs personality traits and behaviour characteristics along with breed standard needs. I currently work full time at a local dog/cat boarding & daycare facility Sunday/Monday 7am-3pm & Tuesday-Thursday 12pm-7pm with Friday/Saturday off. When I am not at work you can find me spending time with my cats and educating myself on all things animals! Whether it be feeding, training, behaviour modification or health/medicine related I’m reading it! I always strive to take care of animals when I’m not at work and love to spend any minute with them possible! Every pet in my care is always treated with love and respect! I understand that not all animals want to be touched or pet all the time and respect any pets/animals space when needed. I also always pay attention to movements while playing to ensure no injuries are made. Everything I do with pets are positive to ensure a happy outlook on things moving forward in life!

Jason went above and beyond to take good care of our home and 14 week old English Setter Puppy. Just after committing to a puppy, we had the opportunity to visit France with our daughter, and visit our granddaughter. We really wanted to go, but only if we could find someone super reliable to take great care of a puppy and continue the training we started. Jason came to meet us before we booked him and put our minds at rest. He sent us daily updates during our week in France so we were able to relax and enjoy a wonderful trip. Should you need a pet sitter, and Jason can do it, do not hesitate!

About: For future reference; will not be accepting non neutered or spayed cats/dogs unless accompanied by a crate, especially if their not trained please. I do have one myself, so not that you need to have one per se but allow use if necessary! This is partially for Henrys experience too, so please keep that in mind when reading this; its not to be snarky. I have trained two dogs growing up who have above average listening and response times. Positive reinforcement was key to my success, psychology paid off. One was a rescue dog; she was such a sweet heart but it took some time getting her to open up based off her traumatic experiences prior to entering the adoption location she luckily found her way too. Henry on the other hand, was purchased from a breeder, so fortunately for him less baggage, and unfortunately for her given the circumstances. I've done dog sitting/pet care for family dogs when family members would go on vacation for anywhere from 6 to 8 weeks. Medication administration is a non issue, as well as grooming is another area I take great pride in doing myself, as it's a good trait to have being a pet owner. Have cared for puppies, adult or senior dogs; we were a dog first family growing up so I've grown to love them more than you can realize just through descriptions; with my active daily lifestyle it allows for the animals to gain as much out of exercise as I do and working from home helps as well. I treat animals as if their my family or children, so they'd receive the same treatment one would expect from a friend baby sitting their children. Seamlessly; he wakes up when I do and is let out accordingly at 4 AM we go for multiple walks a day most notably 430 AM and 530 PM. I work from home so it makes it very manageable to get him outside for bathroom breaks within 2-2.5 hour interval periods. I'd like to think we both operate at a high level through one another. We feed off one another, so when he's upbeat I am too, but when I'm down he has his tricks that ensure a great therapeutic touch. I treat them as if their my children; I speak to them in a way they understand with words or phrases we've practiced or has practiced to ensure optimal success in regards to understanding one another. Henry and I like to play often with his toys or just horsing around with Belly rubs and chasing him around the house. He sleeps with me too, so no furniture is off limits as I usually have blankets or other covers in place to manage hair loss.

We had the pleasure of having Emily dog sit our two pups, our 100lb Doberman and our 5lb Miniature Pinscher and she handled them both with absolute ease! It was our first time using the Rover app, as we’ve always relied on friends and family, but we’re so glad we connected with Emily on the app. Emily was wonderful to work with, professional, reliable, and great with dogs. Our pups were well cared for and we felt completely at ease knowing they were in such good hands. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy and experienced to watch your fur babies, I can’t recommend Emily enough! 🐾

About: I have grown up with a number of medium breeds and large breed sport and working dogs. I rescued an abused presa canario which I raised from 2 years to 10 years. I am not shy with large intact males as I have lots of experience with reassurance, consistency, obedience and dominance as well as recent experience dog sitting and caring for long term two gun dog hound breeds which I love their drive and energy! I have the patience and tolerance for some of the attitude and energy levels of those breeds. They made me fall in love with bird and hunting breed dogs even more! I have had a few dogs as puppies so I do have experience with the basic obedience and training skills. I have experience with medications, injections and wound care for animals as well as 15 years as a registered nurse for caring for humans! I am practiced with nail trimming with large dogs with anxiety behaviours. I enjoy and am comfortable with puppies and senior dog care! My nursing background has made me unbothered by messes and sickness which is helpful in caring for puppies and senior doggies! I genuinely love dogs and most animals I find alot of joy in caring for others and animals 😊 I am currently on a leave from nursing and am looking to find joyful and some financial support through working with great hounds and pups I am a registered nurse with a live se in goodstanding, I have cared for people and pets with the utmost respect and love! I am looking to walk dogs mainly but am also available for drop ins and house pet sitting if it aligns with my life. I am very observant, caring and great at documenting anything that may look out of the normal and going well with your furry friends.

About: I have owned and walked many dogs. I am able to control the dogs through walking (preventing them from jumping, waking right beside me, pulling etc) pets seem to love me and I create an immediate bond with them. I am available most of the time to look after your pet. If I am working with other animals I will schedule it in to fit your needs. I spend time with them and many pee breaks. Make sure there is water, toys and food when needed. A short walk if required upon visits.

I feel very lucky to have found Jenna and would not hesitate to recommend her to others. She is clearly an animal lover and we were able to meet in person twice before her stay which was reassuring for me. My dog is a senior and my cat very timid and she was happy to cater to their specific needs and keep me updated throughout the week we were away. She was very organized and helped me navigate the process with Rover. Thank you Jenna!

About: Please read my full profile to ensure you have all the information you need! Currently only able to accept permanent part-time or full-time clients Monday-Friday in Perth and Lanark area in late afternoon. Thank you for checking out my profile! My name is Josee and a HUGE animal lover. I’ve been exposed to dogs, cats and other animals my whole life. I love to walk and hike with my own dog, as well as train and provide enrichment activities. Whether it’s a daily walk, a quick drop-in, if you have a puppy or senior senior dog, you can count on me to ensure that your pet is happy, safe, and comfortable. I thrive on giving pets what they need—from walks to enrichment, snuggles, training, or just being a companion while you’re away. I am a confident handler and very respectful to each dogs wants and needs based on behavior, body language, and breed. I am confident in handling your nervous, difficult, or anxious dog if this is a concern. As a reactive dog owner, I understand it can be difficult or frustrating taking them out or ensuring that they’ve had enough mental stimulation and exercise during the day. Learning about dog behavior/body language, separation anxiety and positive reinforcement/force-free training has also been a large area of focus in the last 5 years and I'm certified in pet first-aid - I never leave the house without my pet first-aid kit! I also have my certificate in canine nutrition (Cert.CN) - helping dogs live their best and healthiest lives through diet, exercise and stress-free living. I’m highly respectful of your dogs’ individual needs, if they have a routine to follow and I will do whatever is needed to ensure that you feel comfortable with leaving your furry friend in my care—I will treat your pet as my own. Prior to scheduling, I like to do a face-to-face meeting before beginning my services. I am available days, early evenings and the occasional weekend for clients who are scheduling regularly. When caring for your loved one(s), I will begin by assessing your dogs’ behavior and comfort level upon each visit. I am highly respectful of house rules and routines and will always advocate for your pet. **PRICING & SCHEDULING** Please contact me for pricing and service schedules as prices listed on Rover are not firm. Please note that "pet sitting" consists of up to 3 visits per day (priced per visit). Pricing and scheduling will be discussed to determine what best suits your pets needs. EDUCATION & ACCOMPLISHMENTS: Here is a list of courses, seminars and lectures I’ve completed through Canine Foundations Behaviour Consultation & Obedience Training, Fenzi Dog Sports Academy and Team K9 Training: Canine Behaviour, Canine Separation Anxiety, Socialization, Engagement, Confidence Building, Enrichment, Helping Reactive and Fearful Dogs, Noise Phobia in Dogs, Loose Leash Walking Games, Dog Training 101 Basics of Foundation, Quiet a Barking Dog, Resource Guarding

Leah has unique passion and an infectious love for dogs that is undeniable. When Leah arrives at my home to sit with my dog Daisy, I watch as Daisy is overwhelmed with uncontrollable excitement to see Leah. Daisy is so excited that she doesn't even "say goodbye" to me because she knows Leah will be with her that day. Leah loves to go on long walks which works out great for Daisy because one of Daisy's favorite things to do is to go for a walk as well. Daisy always gets her exercise in thanks to Leah getting Daisy out of the house and taking for walks. I never thought I could ever trust anyone with my fur baby until I met Leah. Thanks to Leah's love for dogs and her deep connection with Daisy I'm am truly grateful to have Leah sit with Daisy.

About: I have 20+ years of experience taking care of dogs & cats. I would love to take care of your fur babies so you can enjoy some much needed time away! I’m working full time as a general manager for a hair salon - usually from 9-6 - but am available before and after for pet care! I have two cats of my own so unfortunately my house is not an option. I am happy to care for yours at your house!

Serena was sweet and did a great job pet sitting for our short trip. When we left, our large senior dog was getting along great with her, and when we returned the house was clean and tidy, pets were fed, and waters were filled. I would have liked more updates/photos while we were gone, but I did not talk about it with Serena before our trip, and was busy during the trip. I now know to set that expectation before.

Camryn is a lovely person who clearly loves animals. She is an excellent communicator and always responds quickly. We have her booked for another weekend later this month.

Hey, I’ve known Alyssa quite awhile now and she takes wonderful care of her pets. They are trained well and she takes pride in having them and teaching them new things when she can. If she has the opportunity she would love to have more animals around when she can and she will always give it her all to make sure they are safe and well taken care of. She is a great pet owner and will be great for taking care of others pets too!

Meaghan was a wonderful sitter. She was very communicative and kept us up to date with what was going on in our home and with our pets. I would absolutely use Meaghan again.

Josee has been watching our new puppy for us for a few weeks now. We are very happy with her care, and she's even helped us with curbing some of his bad behaviors.
