About: I grew up with a golden retriever. As well as used to walk a young dog in my neighborhood. I can handle calm or energetic. Im currently not working so I mostly spend my days at home with my cat and on my weekends I tend to spend time with my mom I know how to care for cats needs as well as dogs. I have a cat at home who is older and more shy. I will follow any medical regimen for your pet.

About: For as long as I can remember, I have always loved all pets and animals. Growing up in Italy, my family always loved to have a non-human family member to take care of. My fondest childhood memories were playing with our labrador retriever, Lola, and later adopting another dog named Spenk (named after a popular anime cartoon charater in Italy at the time) in my adolescence. We also had pet chipmunks at one time! I continued living with and taking care of dogs while I lived with host families in Austrailia and New Zealand in my 20s. When I moved to Canada and later met my now-wife, she was a dogsitter through Rover. It was through her that I was able to discover this opportunity and help her with the various responsibilities that came with petsitting. I find taking care of pets in this way to be so rewarding - it boosted my mood, and helped get me moving! Unfortunately, my wife is no longer able to continue being a petsitter due to the committments of her current full-time job. However, since moving to the National Capital Region, we have regularly watched our friends' pets, both at our house and theirs. We both agree, that we really hope to have a pet of our own one day, but for now the best way to fill that void is for me to continue petsitting. I always find it so exciting to have a new "friend" be apart of my day that I can't help but give them my undivided attention. No matter this age, size, or energy level of your pet, I will always stive to give them the exact amount of play, walks, bathroom breaks, treats, and overall attention they may need. We're very lucky to live in a very walk-able neighbourhood near the Gatineau River and Lac Leamy, so regular walks are doable. Pet owners need to have a great deal of trust in their petsitters. Whenever I watch pets, I love to have constant communication with the owner - sending them regular updates and photos throughout the day. Even if their pet is having no problems and seemingly a very happy time, it's still important that the owners know that so they feel more at ease. We thankfully have a very large backyard which would make bathroom breaks very easy, however, at the moment our yard is not fenced, so I would only feel comfortable taking them on bathroom breaks both on-leash and supervised. We're very lucky to live in a very walk-able neighbourhood near the Gatineau River and Lac Leamy, so regular walks are doable. Additionally, we live in a bungalow with a door that closes, so we can block off stairs if that is also a concern for you.

About: Dogs are my passion. There is nothing that makes me happier than petting (or snuggling) a dog. I have never lived without a constant K9 in my life. Having many family pets, two of my very own as an adult, fostering many dogs for over 6 years and being the go-to sitter for friends and family. These are just a few ways I get to fulfil my dog obsession. I have more than 10 years experience caring for dogs with allergies and dogs recovering from varies surgeries. I do not discriminate based on breed, age or most behaviours. I have two dogs of my own so my schedule wouldn’t change too much! Maybe some extra play and some separate walk times. I currently work from home for the majority of the time (2 days in the office). I have two friendly dogs of my own who love a good play session. We also have the space and tools to rotate or allow your dog space/ quiet time. We are well versed with crate training and happy to use a crate in our home if needed.

“Alyssa was amazing. Very punctual and she treated Monty like gold. She was very generous with her time and was an absolute pleasure to speak with. She really knows dogs which is such a help!!! Will definitely be using her all the time. Highly recommend. Thank you Alyssa!!!”

About: Hi there! My name is Tylo and I am both a life-long animal lover and owner, hoping to help people out with giving their fur babies the best care possible. I grew up on a small farm in Manitoba where animals were a big part of my daily life. From bunnies, cats, and dogs, to ponies, horses, and chickens - it's safe to say I have experience caring for animals of all shapes and sizes. I currently own a 5 year old lab mix named Stella (and live with a 1 year old Chocolate lab named Sedona!) who I enjoy adventuring with daily. I own a car and would be happy to do drop ins. I also have experience tending to animals who need special care (special medications, feeding rituals, etc) and a happy to accommodate to whatever will make your baby the happiest. Feel free to message me with any questions, I look forward to meeting all of your adorable fur babies. I currently work from home so my lucky dogs don't have to spend too much time away from me :) I walk my dogs daily so I am used to getting outside no matter the conditions in order to let my girls enjoy a good run. My work schedule can be very flexible so I am happy to be able to offer care at all hours of the day - whatever works best for you. I know it can be hard to have to leave your pets at home all day when you go to work, so I look forward to helping break up that time for your pet and giving you peace of mind when you have to leave them for any amount of time. I have two dogs that live in my home with a fully fenced in back yard. I am more than comfy cleaning up after animals as I have experience picking up poops, scooping litter, and even mucking stalls in a barn. I have crate trained one of my dogs as well so I am comfortable with that as well if that's what makes your fur baby the comfiest. My dogs are very good off leash so we often go to the off leash dog park. However, if off leash exercise is not for your dog, I am happy to do on leash walks as well. At the end of the day, it's whatever you are comfortable and whatever your dog/cat prefers.

About: I have 15+ experience raising my own dog and helping my daughter with her own dog. Over the last 2 years I have dog sat for a friend’s dog periodically . Most recently, I have fostered a sweet little pot cake from Mexico (going through the adoption process because I fell in love with her). I house (she is able to ring a bell to let me know she needs to go outside) and crate trained her and am currently training her to walk on leash (she was a street dog). I WFH two days a week. Pets would be left at home either 3 days a week for about 7 hours or 2 days for 7 hours. Besides these days, there would always be someone here. Dogs would get walked 2-3 times a day and fed twice (morning and evening). I have a small fenced in yard that dogs are welcome to anytime. I have a rescue pup (5 months) from Mexico and she is lovable and friendly. She has been around several dogs and she likes to play with them.

“I’m very happy with Kayla’s service! She walked my dog a number of times. She developed a positive relationship with my dog and did everything to keep her comfortable and happy. Kayla is very reliable and communicative, which I appreciate. I will definitely book with her again in the future!”

“Kevin has been very reliable. I don’t want to make a habit of it, but I have requested his services with somewhat little advance notice and he accepted the requests.”

I approach each pet with professionalism and compassion, respecting both the pet's individual needs and the owner's expectations. I am always ready to offer my expertise and support to guarantee that every pet has a joyful and fulfilling experience while in my care.

About: I love animals ! Ever since I was 8 years old I started to learn and take care of my pets starting with my first cat I had , always fed him and changed his water everyday and played with him , he passed away when he was old and I was 12 . Following that I was took my grandfather neighbor always for a walk when I was visiting him , this pleased my grandfather and his neighbor due that they had health issues and couldn't always take the dog for a walk . I was always interested to take my aunt dog for a walk aswell , as a kid I always got excited to spend time with a dog to go play or go for a walk and I still due with my family dog today named Sammy , he's one of the best and I always take him for a walk or two when I see he needs it or bored , and I always do my best to take care of him by feeding him , cleaning him and play with him since he's still a young dog who is now 2 years old . I am available every weekends and everyday the whole Summer July and August , morning , afternoon and even evenings. Rain or Shine without a doubt. We have a locked by fenced yard for Sammy to run around when he's at home , and I always make sure when we got for a walk in the neighborhood that his dog leash his attached properly and when we encounter other dog walkers that he doesn't go to close of them. Again more at home , I always feed Sammy early in the morning, late afternoon, and in the evening and play inside the house with his toys during the day .

About: "I’ve owned dogs my entire life, and all of my siblings have dogs too, so I’m always looking after them. I’ve also regularly babysat dogs for my friends. I truly believe dogs are part of the family, and I treat them like little children. My dog cuddles with me and sleeps with me every night—showing just how much love I have for them!" I am experienced in caring for pets of all ages and personalities, from playful puppies to senior dogs. I provide lots of love, attention, and care, and offer daily walks, playtime, and even basic medication if needed. I believe if humans were as kind as dogs, the world would be a much better place!" (Weekly boarding rates) message me for details😊😊 "I work from home full-time, so I’m always here to attend to the dogs, ensuring they never have to be alone. I take them for walks twice a day—once during lunch and again in the evening. I’m also available for overnight boarding at any time, providing constant care and attention to ensure they feel comfortable and loved." "I have a welcoming and pet-friendly home where my 5-year-old dog is a part of the family. I don't crate my dog, and he sleeps with me every night, so I’m happy to let other dogs sleep with me too if they need that extra comfort and human touch to feel relaxed and secure. When caring for dogs in my home, I make sure they’re all treated with love and attention. All the dogs in my care will go on walks together twice a day, once at lunch and again in the evening, ensuring they get plenty of exercise and fresh air. I understand that some dogs may feel more comfortable in a crate, and if that’s the case, I’m happy to accommodate that as well. My main goal is to create a safe, comfortable, and trusting environment where your pet feels right at home."
