“Don was great with our 2 small pups! He used the app for checking in and out so we knew when he was there and he sent us little summaries through the app with photos everyday which was nice. His love of dogs was very apparent and his excitement to see our dogs each day made it feel like we were doing him a favour and not the other way around! We felt confident and safe having Don in our home caring for dogs and wouldn’t hesitant to work with him again!”

“We are so grateful for the care you provided for our cat on such short notice over the holidays. It was a huge relief knowing they were in such good hands. Communication was great, and it was clear our cat was comfortable and well cared for. We wouldn’t hesitate to book again—thank you so much!”

“We loved having Chelsea looking after our two small puppies! She was friendly and responsive to messages and was respectful of our house. We would happily have her look after our dogs again!”

About: I've raised and trained 4 dogs, with one being trained and registered as a Service Animal. My dog is not an animal but part of my family and I will treat yours with the same care and attention. I am flexible to meet whatever needs you and your pet have. I am availalbe early morning, to late at night and even over night. I provide safe, loving, and personalized care. I follow each pet’s routine, offer plenty of playtime, walks, and affection, and ensure they feel comfortable and secure while you're away.

About: I have had farm animals and pets my whole life. All of my pets have had long wonderful lives ranging from 19-22years. I feed my pets all natural and raw foods. I keep my pets groomed and medically sound. I currently work 3 days a week which leaves 4 days a week of being available at home. I only work a 5 minute drive from my home. I have my own dog who is trained and well behaved. On the days that I work I take her for a walk in the morning, come home on my lunch for a walk and then 2 walks in the evening. My Siberian Husky is great company and she has plenty of toys to share. I will have crates set up in my house if you prefer your pet to be crate trained or if the crate is a comfort zone for your fur baby.
About: Are you looking for someone your pet will love? Look no further! I’m an active, compassionate sitter who truly listens to what your pet needs most whether that’s energetic adventures or peaceful snuggles. I’d love to meet your furry friend, provide them with the best care, and meet both their needs and yours as a pet owner. I would love to take your dog for a walk three days a week,Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. After an exciting morning walk ot play they'll be all tuckered out and ready to rest for the remainder of the day. It’s a great way for your pet to start the day off right! I would love to spend time with your pet and am able to provide them with whatever they need, whether that’s cuddling in a quiet environment or playing a high energy game or going for a walk. I’m flexible and happy to meet the needs of your furry companion.
“Chastity is amazing. She checked in on my cat daily while I was out of town. She was incredibly helpful and responsive. My cat loves her, and she went above and beyond to take care of him! I will definitely book her the next time I am out of town!”

About: I am a former Veterinary Technician with several years of clinical experience. Prior to graduating I worked at a variety of pet stores and learned to care for dogs, cats, lizards, birds and more. I've also previously worked as a dog walker for a kennel in Montreal. As a child, I also cared for the neighbourhood animals while their owners were on vacation I currently work full-time office hours Uptown. Available in the evenings and weekends. Early mornings can be discussed, dependent on distance and how early we're talking! Cannot care for other animals in my apartment, three animals in a one bedroom already has me at max capacity! However, I can work within the limits of your home with your pet! As a fellow pet owner, I understand the importance of trust and the ability for a pet sitter to follow instruction
“I feel so comfortable leaving my pups with Meaghan!! Dogs just know - and even our nervous rescue dog warms up quickly!! If you’re looking for someone super friendly and great with dogs, Meaghan is your girl!”

About: As a dog lover and owner myself, I have a deep understanding and appreciation for the joy and companionship that dogs bring into our lives. Since 2019, I have been caring for my own furry baby and have also had the pleasure of looking after friends' dogs as well. They have all said that I am a reliable and trustworthy caretaker, providing love and attention while making sure their pets are safe and comfortable. Playing games such as tug of war and catch with dogs is one of my favorite activities, as it allows me to bond with them and see their playful personalities shine through. Above all, the happiness and fulfillment I get from taking dogs out for a walk is unparalleled, and I am excited to share that joy with your furry companions. I work from home so I am generally open anytime from 10 am to 6 pm. I can do lunch potty breaks or afternoon walks. I do not currently offer services to care for dogs in my own home, or in the client's home. But for dog walks, I always stick to the areas with less people, sidewalks, and parks. If the neighbourhood seems good, I will try to stick to the neighbourhood.

About: I’ve had pets my whole life, including dogs, cats, and small animals, and caring for them has always been second nature to me. I’ve looked after many furry friends over the years and take pride in being patient, gentle, and treating every pet like my own. Animal care fits naturally into my schedule. I work full time and do some cleaning on the side, but I truly love making time to spend with furry friends whenever I can. Pet visits and walks are something I genuinely look forward to, and I enjoy adding a little extra animal time into my days—it’s a joy, not a chore. I care for pets with patience, kindness, and respect for their routines, whether in my home or in my client’s home. I follow all feeding, walking, and care instructions closely to keep pets comfortable and stress-free. I take time to get to know each animal’s personality, provide plenty of attention and affection, and ensure their safety at all times. My goal is to create a calm, loving environment so every pet feels secure and well cared for while their owners are away.

About: I grew up with golden retrievers and bernease mountain dogs all throughout my child hood. I enjoy and connect very well with all dogs and take them in as my own. Let me give you peace of mind by knowing that I truly care for you pet and by enjoying spending time with them as I can’t have my own because of my current landlords restrictions.

About: Hello everyone ! My name is Lyla Waycott. I’ve got on Rover to fill up my spare time spending time with animals and making some extra cash. I work full time at Mountain View Stables in Norton, therefore my schedule is limited primarily to late afternoons and evenings. That being said, I can accommodate early morning (before 7am) walks/drop-ins. If you take a look through my photos you’ll get a glimpse of my herd! I have one horse, three dogs and two cats. That being said, I’m quite comfortable with a variety of different species. Big & small, I love them all! I also have experience administering medication to horses, dogs and cats. Thanks to a fair amount of life experience I’m quite capable and knowledgeable with animals, though always eager to learn more!! I look forward to hearing from you and your furry family members, if you have any questions at all please don’t hesitate to reach out!! Talk soon. Take care, Lyla && the herd ❤️ As mentioned above, my availability is primarily late afternoons (after 4pm) and evenings. Though I can make early mornings (before 7am) work as well. I already have a schedule set in place with my animals, so I’m just looking to squeeze in a few extra hours of “work” in with Rover a week!! I will always do my best to make your animals comfortable with my presence and to make our visits as enjoyable and fun for us both as possible. I’m comfortable with and able to crate dogs after my visit if need be, I have experience using shock collars and walking reactive dogs if either things are a concern. I will always respect any safety measures you have in place.
About: I've taken care of cats & dogs (& many other critters) for over 40 years. I grew up on a farm and know the importance of treating animals with care and compassion. I've walked, groomed, bathed and played with more dogs & cats for myself, friends/family & neighbours than I can count. I'll treat your furbaby like it was my own - with love. I have markets that I attend on weekends for my business, so I have plenty of time during the week to dedicate to pet care. My schedule is pretty flexible. I will be caring for your pet in your home, which means I'll be following whatever rules you have in place. This includes feeding, play, outdoor time & walks.
About: I’ve always had a special place in my heart for animals, big, small, young and old. I have experience taking care of different types of dogs and would love to care for yours! I work 9-5 Monday to Friday but I could do evenings and weekends. As well as the occasional lunch hour if the pet is in my area. My prices are flexible depending on what your pet needs and the length of time. I can top up your animals food and water/ clean water bowls. Play with them, take them for a walk or whatever you and your pet needs!
