“Raquelle saved me on a holiday weekend by agreeing to walk my dog and feed her dinner when I was out of town for a few hours. She responded right away and was very communicative and easy to plan with. She left a great update on how things went and I can see from the pictures she took that my somewhat timid puppy had a fun walk with her :)”

About: I have experience as a PSW and have assisted in training for service alongside my clients. I also have experience training fosters and adopted family members of all ages into the same homes. At home we have a particularly food driven and curious LabxShepherd. She came to us as a puppy, so I know what it takes to help the young ones become comfortable and loved in their homes as well-mannered and obdient members of the family. I currently work part-time during the school year as a student supervisor. This schedule allows me plenty of time in between the hours that I am at school with the children for walks and play dates, check-ins and short stays. I have a fenced in backyard that would be enormous for a small dog and is an adequate size for a large dog. I have a friendly LabxShepherd who is super playful and will keep your pet busy, and will sometimes have them tired by the end of the day. We have barriers in our home to keep of unsupervised areas. We also have a large crate available for those who require it. If care is needed in your home, I will do my utmost to adhere to all rules, feeding times, appointments and exercise schedules.
About: Animals have always been a big part of my life, and caring for them brings me so much joy. I’ve worked with dogs of all ages, from playful puppies to senior dogs who need a little extra TLC. I believe every dog has their own personality and needs, and I love getting to know each one individually. My home is a calm and pet-friendly space, and I treat every dog that visits like family. I also understand how hard it can be to leave your pet in someone else’s care, which is why I make communication a top priority. I’m always happy to send photos and updates so you can feel at ease while you’re away. As a full-time stay-at-home wife, I have a very flexible schedule and am available throughout the day to care for your pup. Whether it’s a midday walk, or last-minute drop-ins, I’m here to help. I’m home most of the time, which means your dog will get lots of attention, interaction, and supervision—no long stretches alone. We have a friendly puppy of our own who loves to make new doggy friends! It’s a great environment for dogs who enjoy socializing and playing with others. I keep a calm, structured home where pets can feel safe and loved, and I’m happy to work with your pet’s specific routine or needs. Because I’m always nearby, I can give frequent potty breaks, playtime, and cuddles. I also provide quick responses and regular photo updates to keep you in the loop. My goal is to make you and your pet feel as comfortable and cared for as possible! I live in an apartment but go for daily walks and go to my parents house a few times a week to let my pup play on there yard! I also love going to the beach with my pup
“Mickayla is professional and reliable. She’s always prompt and eager to help us. She has been great with our energetic dog Marble, who even after 2 walks with Mickayla has been better on her leash. Marble comes back well exercised and happy. Would recommend Mickayla and happy we have found her.”
About: I’ve spent the last 9 years actively caring for dogs and have grown up with them my entire life. I’ve worked with dogs of all sizes and temperaments — from energetic puppies to gentle giants. Most of my experience comes from hands-on care with my family's senior dog, who taught me so much about patience, routine, and the extra love older pups need. I have hands-on experience with anxious dogs through caring for my own, and I’m confident in creating a calm, safe space that helps them feel at ease. I’m confident with walks, playtime, feeding, administering medications, and recognizing changes in behaviour. Whether your dog is playful or prefers a slower pace, I’m here to give them the care and attention they deserve. I'm currently unemployed and can devote my full time to caring for and playing with your pets! I'm available any hour of the day and can easily add overnight care to my schedule! Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priority. I make sure their environment is calm, clean, and secure — whether I’m in your home or they’re visiting mine. I follow any specific routines, feeding schedules, and medication instructions you provide, and I always take time to get to know your pet’s personality and needs. I respect your space and your pet’s comfort zone, and I aim to create a stress-free experience for both of you. You can count on clear communication, updates, and lots of love and attention for your furry family member! 🐾
About: I have grown up with many different pets. Mainly cats and dogs but I had 2 pet rats when I was 7. My family had a pet bird, a couple of bunnies and crayfish at one point. I love all animals and can be relied on to offer exceptional care to your companions. I am a very active person and can walk (or jog with) your pets, play fetch with them, check in on them and/or babysit them at my residence or yours. Please check my availability. I update it often but you can always message me if you have any questions! :) My apartment is very clean and organized, ensuring a safe and enjoyable stay for your pet. I am very respectful and can be trusted inside of your home if that is what you prefer. I am also very active and will have no problem keeping up with your active companion.
“Maple my dog was very happy with her walk!”
About: I’ve cared for a variety of animals including dogs, cats, birds and fish. I have a very safe, clean, calm and loving home to take care for your fur baby. I am currently working afternoons but at home in the morning and night. I am also available most weekends 24 hours a day to provide loving care. I have a large house in a quiet neighbourhood. The property has a big fenced in yard where your fur baby is safe and can freely roam.
“What an amazing lady! Thank you for taking such great care of my Poodles ❤️”
About: Over the years, I have cared for animals of all life stages, from newborns to seniors and animals with special needs. Many years ago, I worked with a wildlife rehabilitation center fostering raccoons, opossums, squirrels, and other animals. Since I worked at a pet store for many years, I have gained extensive knowledge about caring for various types of animals, including fish, reptiles, cats, dogs, and a variety of small animals. Besides dogs and cats, I am willing to care for all animals, including fish, reptiles, birds, and small animals. Over the years, I have owned/cared for many dogs, including specialty dogs (blind, diabetic, cancers that require medication), cats, fish, reptiles, and a variety of small animals. Having just moved from Nova Scotia, I am looking to slowly integrate into the work force and have plenty of time to care for pets. Whether I'm visiting your home to let pets out for a bathroom break, litter cleaning, or feedings, I'll follow any special instructions you specify, such as crating or medications.
About: I have had dogs my whole life, have dog sit for many years for family and friends, enjoy taking care of and playing with animals very much currently, i work mornings, so i am available most of the time or can be home if needed i have 3 of my own so i am around a lot to take care of them i have a fully fenced in yard for them to run and play and trails nearby to walk , i currently own 3 dogs, to older and a 1 year old who loves to play with other dogs they can have freedom of the house or can be crated, whatever your preference
About: I have taken care of and owned cats and dogs for many years, as well as training my own dogs. My love for animals knows no bounds. They will be safe, well cared for, and loved with me. I also offer longer boarding/housesitting for your extended trips. I currently have a full-time job and my schedule is known well in advance which leaves me plenty of availability for your 4-legged babies. I'm gearing up for retirement in the next 10 years and would love to carry my pet services well into retirement. I recently lost the last of my beloved pets and realize how empty my life is without them. I look forward to taking the love I've had, and still have, for my previous pets and showering it on yours. The care of your pets in my home will depend on their individual needs and how you have trained them, such as crate trained dogs. I live alone so there will be plenty of time for cuddles, walks, brushing, play time, etc... I have a spare room that is perfect for crates, cat tree, beds, play tunnels, etc... My home is lived and loved in and if they're on the furniture, that's okay. Please note, I do like to have 2 'meet and greets' with you and you baby. The first is outdoors where we can interact and the second is in my home so your baby knows and remembers the environment when they arrive and they don't feel anxious or sad when you leave them.
About: Growing up we had various pets to take care of and learn responsibility for so my love of animals started young. I have over the years done drop in visits, overnight stays at your home as well as having your pet at my own place. Each pet is unique and their care should reflect that. I have cared for senior animals with various medication requirement as well as puppies just finding their bearings. I appreciate the simplicity of going for a walk and believe that having a dog alongside yo u enhances the experience. I currently work shift work with 5 days off at a time so my schedule fluctuates, but allows for an ample amount of free time to be adjusted for your needs. Prior to care, I would discuss with you the pet's schedule and routine as well as their needs to ensure they get the proper care. This would also include any additional information about your pet for situational circumstances and their personality. While your animal is in my care I do provide updates to give peace of mind.

“Victoria was a great and reliable walker for my Bernese Mountain Dog while I was away on vacation. She was very prompt for her arrival times and always shared pictures and a well written summary of each walk which was above my expectations! It had us feeling like she wasn't too far away from us the entire trip. I'd highly recommend her for your dog walking needs.”
About: 8 years of experience in pet care and dog walking with my own dogs, I would love to have the opportunity to share my love for dogs with your furry friends. I have grown up with 3 Rottweilers and I am currently raising my own 6 month old German Shepard puppy. I have experience working with a variety of breeds, sizes, and temperaments, and have developed a strong understanding of canine behavior. I have a natural affinity for animals, and have a knack for putting them at ease and creating an enjoyable experience for them. In addition to my pet care experience, I have a very flexible schedule to be able to work around the needs of you and your fur babies. I also love to share pictures of your dogs on our daily adventures! I am currently enrolled in the Lambton College Practical Nursing Program for September 2024. I have always enjoyed the company and unconditional love dogs give. I would love to meet your furry family member and discuss how I can help care for your canine companion! As a responsible dog owner myself I have a strong understanding of the importance of physical activity for all breeds. Being familiar with large breed dogs I will work with your needs and expectations. I am always seeking new hiking trails and adventures! I am always willing to accommodate specific needs of every dog. I am also empathetic to leash reactivity and have a strong understanding of individual needs so I am capable of planning walks around your dogs temperament. Both my dogs have a strict feeding schedule and I value the importance of structure and routine for all canines.

St. Thomas dog parents share their Rover experiences
Carley was a great help taking my dog for walks when my work schedule got a little hectic and family was unavailable. Her communication was great, keeping me informed on Levi’s behaviour throughout the walk and always included a photo! She was also very flexible when I needed to add another date. You can tell Carley has experience with dogs, as mine can be a little wary of new people and she gave him lots of time to sniff and warm up to her! I will definitely reach out in the future.
