About: I’ve been around animals most of my life - growing up with dogs and cats, rescuing strays, and helping them find homes. I’ve cared for French Bulldogs, Huskies, Dachshunds, mixed breeds, and more - from active pups to quiet seniors. In New York, I volunteered at Muddy Paws Rescue and photographed adoptable pets. Now in Thunder Bay, I work from home and offer calm, one-on-one care tailored to your dog’s personality. If your pup’s the active type, I’m always up for a run! I work remotely with a flexible routine and spend a lot of time at home. Your pet won’t be left alone for long - they’ll get walks, attention, and someone around to keep them company. I live in a dog-friendly apartment next to Marina Park - perfect for peaceful lakeside walks. I usually care for one dog at a time, but may accept two if they get along well. I’m happy to follow your routine and keep you updated with sweet photos.

About: I've had dogs all my life. Recently lost my precious pooch. Just want a temp fur baby to look after if I can help you. I'm retired and have all the time day and night to board in my home from June to October. At the moment just don't want another dog. I have a fully fenced large backyard. I will play with your pooch and take the occasional walk. I'll treat them like my own and spoiled too.

About: Throughout the years I've shared times with pups ranging from eager little rascals to seasoned retirees. Growing up with dogs, fostering and casual dog sitting have created many memories scattered with wet noses and muddy paw prints. I'm an active individual ready to accommodate various needs. I'm available for boarding 7 days a week and for walks early morning, evening and select afternoons. I have a big yard to play in and a lot of love to share. We have a country property with quiet roads to explore.

“Kunika has been excellent with my small breed dog. She was in constant communication and also provided confidence by sending pictures of the walks and meals. I would definitely recommend Kunika as a sitter in the future! Leo was with her for almost 12 hours and she was able to handle him with lots of care!”


About: I’ve been taking care of cats and dogs for over 5 years. I currently have 4 cats of my own and treat them like family. Friends and neighbors often count on me to help feed, groom, and play with their pets. I’m comfortable with administering basic medications and keeping pets calm and happy while their owners are away. I currently work part-time, which gives me plenty of flexibility to care for your pets. I’m available for boarding on weekends and most weekdays after 2 PM. Whether your pet needs a walk, playtime, or cuddles, I’ll make time for them with love and care. I have a safe, fenced yard and two gentle, well-socialized dogs who love making new friends. Your pet will enjoy a cozy and supervised environment. I can also crate your dog if needed and will always follow your instructions to ensure your pet feels secure and happy.

“Lisa did an incredible job taking care of my dog while I was away. She was reliable, caring and she clearly has a natural connection with animals.

Launi W.
“Launi has been an animal lover since a very young age. No matter the size, age or type, she loves them all with her whole heart. You can always count on your animal to be in the best care and have the most fun when Launi is watching them. She is the best aunty to our 2 dogs at home. As soon as her car pulls in the driveway, the boys are running to the front door with toys to greet her. They are so excited to see her knowing that it is endless play time now. Launi is also great at teaching them lessons and learning new tricks. If you would like your pets to have the time of their lives, I would highly recommend Launi! Whether it is for a short or long time she with love them endlessly!”

Thunder Bay dog parents share their Rover experiences
Steph and her boys were amazing! She asked all the right questions to make me feel comfortable that my girl would be taken care of and sent videos and photos through the day so I knew things were going well. I picked up a very happy and tired dog at the end of the day thanks to Steph, Bert & Ernie 😊
