“Megaen is clearly a huge dog lover! She was easy to communicate with, came to meet my dog the day before, and very punctual. She’s walked my dog twice, both times taking him for a good length and reporting back afterwards. I was able to book her the day before I needed her & would definitely book her again!”

“Katherine was a great help to us while we were away. She came to walk both of our dogs accommodating the individual needs of each dog with walks, cuddles and playtime. We are happy to have a reliable person to call on when we need assistance in the future.”

“Terrific service. Brenna is very competent. She is always on time and gives them their full walk. Very dependable. Nice to have someone I trust with the dogs.. Love the Rover cards!”

“Natalie was great, so glad we got to know her! Our Sally, who is often shy and cautious, was comfortable and friendly from the start. And Natalie took great pictures; black dogs like Sally are really tricky to capture on camera! We hope Natalie stays with Rover!”

About: Growing up, I had a family dog named Katie who I spent lots of time with: feeding, playing, walking, and snuggling. When she died, we got another dog named Leo who I also spend tons of time with. In 2015, my partner and I got our very own fur baby named Ahri. We've recently moved to Stratford, where I grew up, and are enjoying walking by the Avon River and around town! I've taken care of Ahri while she is very sick, and can happily walk with her for hours in all weather. I feed and walk Leo for my parents when they need a dog sitter. I follow directions well, am tidy and considerate, can do weekday visits and am beloved by the pooches.
About: Family friends have gladly left their dog repeatedly with me to care for (up to 4 or 5 nights). When I was younger, I walked the neighbour’s dog a few times a week. I also have a regular visitor who stays at the house during the day when her mama is busy. I have participated in Trusted Housesitters for two elderly dogs, you can read the review below. "Maria and Max were very considerate with our doggies they are both elderly and they were careful about not leaving them on their own to long . Maria looked after our newly planted garden and kept everything well watered ready for our return . Thank you for looking after our beautiful doggies and keeping them both entertained and fed . The house was nice and tidy on our return and would recommend you you both to others." I am a recent graduate with a flexible schedule who has moved back home for the year. I won't be home 4-7 Monday through Friday, but there will be people around to help out if needed. My home: - no other dogs to worry about conflict - 3 other adults in the home (sister and parents) - backyard with a stake so the dog can have free range - lovely, safe neighbourhood to take walks in Your home: - I will make sure to keep the dog in their normal routine - leave everything tidy and the way I found it (the chewed up cushions were the dog, I swear…) - I am a relaxed and easy-going person, comfortable in someone else’s home but also respectful of your space Both: - Follow instructions given intently and purposefully - Will call in case of emergency, and health concerns, I will take them directly to the vet clinic if possible - Have a blast with your dog- I promise they will be happier after hanging out with me:))

“Adam is very caring and kind. He has been a daily walker for us for a month now and takes our dog’s needs into account during challenging conditions, like weather, making sure she stays well. Adam communicates quickly if something arises and is very adaptable to time changes if he is able to accommodate. We completely trust him with our girl and she now looks very forward to seeing her new friend as well. I highly recommend Adam. He has been a godsend to us.”

I have my own dog for them to socialize with if that’s of interest and am comfortable crating dogs based on their needs and training schedules.

Noah is fantastic with the dogs and extremely reliable which is something I really need. Noah showed up as a courtesy and met the dogs and our family for the first time and we all got to know each other for a while so the dogs were very comfortable when Noah arrived. Noah went above and beyond making us feel comfortable. On the day of walking Noah took the dogs for a long walk, took pictures and replenished water and food. Couldn't have asked for better care! Thanks Noah- We will call back soon!

Natalie was great, so glad we got to know her! Our Sally, who is often shy and cautious, was comfortable and friendly from the start. And Natalie took great pictures; black dogs like Sally are really tricky to capture on camera! We hope Natalie stays with Rover!
