“My dog, Selah, absolutely loves being at Fiona's place. She runs around like crazy with the other dogs and enjoys the cuddles and comfortable environment indoors as well. Fiona always sends videos and picture updates which help me stay in touch. Grateful to have found this wonderful place!”

“Eva is awesome! She’s super communicative and helpful in organizing my dog’s stay. She took excellent care of my dog. My dog, Lucy, takes some time to get used to new people. Eva did a great job and within the first hour she sent a photo of Lucy smiling and playing with her. Eva updated me throughout Lucy’s stay. Lucy came home tired and happy. I highly recommend Eva! A great experience.”

“Dawn was a lifesaver! Our original sitter canceled last minute, and Dawn accepted our booking the same day. We were so grateful she could take Choki in on such short notice. She kept us updated with photos and took amazing care of him. When I picked him up, he was calm, happy, and even freshly washed and groomed—he looked better than when we dropped him off! I couldn’t recommend Dawn more. She’s caring, professional, and truly goes above and beyond. Thank you, Dawn!”

“We had a wonderful experience with Tyrone! He provided many photos and updates, and we had no doubt our boy Ollie was in the best care. We will definitely use Tyrone’s help again! Highly recommend!”

“Amazing dog sitters, sent us constant pictures of our puppy, reassuring us he was okay and having a great time! Their setup is amazing, perfect for dogs of all sizes. They gave our puppy an adorable crochet collar!”

About: I've had 3 dogs as part of my family from 2004-2023 with two of them being rescues, and have watched after many other family pets in my home and in their homes. Experienced with leash reactivity. Only your provided food and treats will be given. Why leave your fur family in a kennel, all alone, when they can spend quality time in my home or yours? While I watch your family member, I work from home to be there for them. While I am watching you furry family member, I will work from home so that I am there for them. Morning, afternoon, and evening walks, with as many potty breaks as needed. Indoor and outdoor play. If I am sitting in your home, I will also travel to Kitchener, Waterloo, Cambridge, Guelph, London, and surrounding areas. 1. Keep them safe and clean 2. Meet basic requirements including on time feeding and outdoor activities 3. Enhance with playing and interacting with pets to build trust and relationships. Let me know if your pets need special care. Instructions are required for allergies, medications, or specific routines. Willing to discuss and meet any requirement for your beloved ones.
“Elizabeth was helpful setting us up for our first time leaving our dog. I loved seeing all the pictures while I was away. Our pup is happy and it was nice to have her in a cozy home with great care while I was away. Everything went so smoothly. Thanks so much Elizabeth.”

“Our energetic pup, Louie, was well taken care of and well loved during his stay with Charlanne. Charlanne is an excellent communicator and kept us up to date during Louie’s stay and provided lots of pictures and videos. Charlanne went above and beyond and had paths in the deep snow in her yard so Louie could have a safe place to run and play. Highly recommend and have booked Louie’s second stay!”

“Edward and his family are awesome. They took really good care of Tako while we had to be away and Tako loves them. Couldn't be more happy to have found a 2nd home and family that Tako (and us) love!”

“Great experience with Claudia and her family. Communication was good during the booking and especially during the stay. She even sent me home with pictures from their stay. Definitely would recommend and I have already rebooked!”

“Emma was amazing with my fur babies Teddy is hard to please but he was smiling through the stay if Emma will watch them again I feel comfortable leaving them with Emma.”

“This past weekend our family used Rover for the first time and Adam kindly and quickly responded to my booking request as well as any questions I had. He kept contact throughout Nova's stay and sent us pictures along the way. It was FANTASTIC to be able to go away and have her stay in a safe, warm and caring environment. We would highly recommend and hope to book with Adam again in the future.”

“Charlie had his first stay with Donna last weekend. He had a fantastic time playing with Lucy, Donna’s dog. I got updates on how he’s doing as I asked for them and I could tell that Donna sincerely cared about him and wanted him to feel at home. He adored her daughter too and was her constant companion. Charlie will definitely be back!”

About: Wiener dog mom with a big heart for all breeds! 🐾 I share my home with a couple of sweet dachshunds and would love to welcome your pup, big or small. I know how important it is to feel safe and loved while you’re away, and I treat every guest like family. I work from home and my schedule is very flexible, so your pup will never go long without attention. Our pups Rosie and Tucker also love to make new friend's. I have a fully fenced backyard with a big area to run, play, and explore—always supervised for safety. Inside, pups can relax in a cozy, home‑like space and follow their own feeding and potty routines.
“Can I please give Judy 10 stars?!? What an incredible person! She was able to take me at the VERY last minute! Ren loved her and seems to have not even noticed that I went away (he has debilitating separation anxiety)! He got along with her dogs, actually ate his dinner and breakfast and came back to me happy! Thank you, Judy, for taking such exceptional care of my dog!”

It was our first time leaving Bella with a boarding service and we are very happy with the results. Dallas was great with Bella. They got along fantastic. We could could tell as Bella was excited and happy to start her time with Dallas after her first visit. We had a great trip knowing that Bella was secure with Dallas. Thank you
5 stars isn't enough for Maria. What was suppose to be a simple few days while we went on vacation quickly turned out to be anything but. right before we were to leave we discovered Ellie had a brain Tumor and needed alot of extra care.. We gave Maria the chance to back out as that's not what was originally discussed.. and she didn't.. she was up for the challenge. Simply Amazing.. thank you so much for taking care of our girl for us.
