Dog Sitting Toronto

About: Animals have been part of my life for as long as I can remember. My experience began with my childhood cat, Uncle Shay, and later grew through caring for Maya, a Basset Hound and Rottweiler mix, and Fred, a Rottweiler. Over the years I've learned that every pet has a unique personality, routine, and way of communicating, and taking the time to understand those differences is one of the most important parts of providing great care. 've been caring for animals for as long as I can remember. My experience began with my childhood cat, Uncle Shay, and continued with two wonderful dogs, Maya, a Basset Hound and Rottweiler mix, and Fred, a Rottweiler. Growing up with them taught me that every pet has their own personality, routine, and way of communicating, and that the best care starts with taking the time to understand them as individuals. Outside of Rover, I'm a member of the Canadian Armed Forces Reserves, where responsibility, reliability, and attention to detail are part of everyday life. I'm also building a veterinary-related business, which has given me an even deeper appreciation for preventative care, client communication, and creating a safe, low-stress experience for every pet. One thing that sets me apart is my approach before a booking even begins. Every new client receives a structured meet-and-greet where I learn about your dog's routine, personality, medications, behavioural triggers, emergency contacts, favourite activities, feeding schedule, and any special instructions. Rather than providing one-size-fits-all care, I tailor every visit to your pet's individual needs so they feel comfortable, safe, and as close to their normal routine as possible. Whether I'm taking your dog for a walk or caring for them while you're away, my goal is simple: to treat them with the same care and attention I'd want for my own pets. I'm based near Yonge & Finch and primarily serve North York and neighbourhoods along Toronto's Line 1 subway, including: • Willowdale • North York Centre • Newtonbrook • Lansing • Yonge & Sheppard • York Mills • Lawrence Park • Yonge & Eglinton • Davisville • Midtown Toronto • St. Clair • Summerhill • Rosedale • Yorkville • The Annex • Downtown Toronto If you're outside these neighbourhoods, feel free to reach out. Depending on my schedule, I'm often able to accommodate other areas as well. My schedule is flexible with advance notice, allowing me to accommodate both daytime and evening bookings throughout most of the week. I work part time on my veterinary business, giving me flexibility to provide dependable pet care around my existing commitments. I'm generally available during the day and evenings, with the exception of Thursday evenings. Your pet's safety, comfort, and wellbeing always come first. Before every booking, I take time to understand your pet's daily routine, medical history, medications, exercise needs, favourite activities, behavioural tendencies, and any special instructions. I also review leash routines, home access, emergency contacts, and safety considerations so every visit goes as smoothly as possible. During walks and visits, I provide constant supervision, use positive reinforcement, carefully secure doors, gates, and leashes, and follow your instructions closely. I pay attention to details that can make a big difference, from monitoring weather conditions and avoiding hazards to recognizing changes in behaviour or energy levels. You'll receive regular updates, photos, and messages throughout each visit so you always know how your pet is doing. I believe consistency creates confidence, so I work hard to keep your pet's routine as familiar and stress-free as possible while you're away.

“Madeleine was absolutely wonderful with our dogs! She took exceptional care of them and went above and beyond to make sure they were happy, comfortable, and well looked after. When one of our dogs had an upset tummy and anxiety, Madeleine stayed with them to make sure they were alright and waited for us to return home rather than simply leaving as planned. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing they were in such caring and attentive hands. We truly appreciate her thoughtfulness, compassion, and dedication, and we would happily recommend Madeleine to anyone looking for someone trustworthy to care for their pets!”

About: Got my first family dog in 2020, a rescue with some baggage who quickly warmed up to every one and every thing around him. Currently have a cute a cuddly 3 year old miniature dachshund of my own, and looking to fill my summer off with some other fur friends! I’m a teacher with the summer off, so I have plenty of free time on my hands to check-in on dogs, as well as take them for a stroll! I live in a condo with a grass patch out front, so I take my dog outside every couple hours to potty and get his sniffs in. I usually take him for 2-3 walks a day, on top of his bathroom breaks.

About: We are so excited to get to know your fur babies! We have been surrounded by animals our whole life, and have had over 15 years of taking care of pets of all sizes, breeds, and ages. Yours can expect the utmost TLC from us - whether it's lounging, cuddling, roughhousing, or just some space. We are doting pet auntie and uncle at heart. You're already taking a big leap of faith to entrust your dogs and cats to us, so it's important to us that we only take 1 client at a time in order to provide the best care possible. Rest assured that they will receive undivided love and attention in a quiet & calm environment where they can relax and thrive. We work from home and can provide round-the-clock supervision. There is usually at least 1 of us home, and if not, we're not usually gone for more than 4 hours at a time. We only take 1 client at a time, so privacy, safety, and space won't be an issue. Your dog will also be welcome to roam our large fenced backyard. There's no off-limits space in the house, except our bed.

“Dom loves Anieli and Gustavo, and he always have so much fun with them! Thank you for taking such great care of him”

“Patty is great! We had to leave for a week and she took great care of our cat! Not only that but she also took care of our house and stuff, I felt very safe and comfortable with her service. She followed all the rules and was professional. Strongly recommend!!!”

“Dilara was absolutely amazing with my finicky and shy cat, Ivan. Honestly, she did a better job with his litter and food than I do! He warmed up to her quickly and was soon literally eating out of her hand 🙂. She was also incredibly kind to my elderly mother who was home but unable to perform all the cat-care duties. My mom loved Dilara and so did Ivan and I. I highly recommend her, she is kind, caring and very responsible.”

“I don’t have enough words to describe how wonderful Alaia is. Alaia looked after our cat for a 10 day period and went above and beyond in every way. She often stayed longer than the scheduled visit time to keep our cat company. Her care, kindness, and attention to detail gave us such peace of mind, and her daily report and beautiful pictures were such a joy to receive! We’re so grateful to have found Alaia - our shy cat is totally bonded with her!”

“Yamini took care of our cat and bird for a few days. She was very responsive and went out of her way to make sure our sad bird got some treats. We came home to happy pets!”

“Jane and her mom helped us take care of our cat Adel while we were away for almost a week. They were very attentive, punctual and neat. Can't thank them enough, and Adel is looking forward to seeing them again.”

About: I have been trained at a local animal shelter as a cat and dog caretaker, with frequent training upgrades in areas of medical needs, behaviour, and senior care. In daily life, I have been happy to be a pet sitter, walker, and caretaker for friends and neighbours for more than a decade! As a student, I am flexible with my schedule and available most days, including afternoons, evenings, and weekends. If needed, I am able to offer house-sitting for extended periods of time. I am happy to follow a steady, existing routine to eliminate any stress for your pet. My approach is a balance of play and a calm, safe space, following the direction of the animal.

About: Hey everyone! My name is Tundi, I'm nanny so I know how to take care of family members! Because to me, pets are family! Ever since I remember my family always had dogs in different shapes and sizes: bulldog, boxer, German Sheppard, dachshund. So I have lots of experience with different breeds. Unfortunately I don’t have any dogs right now so I’m in serious need for some doggy love! I'm a kind, passionate, honest, caring person and I guarantee that your dog will be in great hands! I'm also more than happy to send pictures of our daily adventures! I can't wait to meet you and your dog! I work full time Monday to Friday but I am available on most weekends! I am really flexible so don’t hesitate to contact me as it’s all about communication and scheduling :) I don't have a favorite breed, I genuinely love them all! Over the years, I've cared for Boxers, French Bulldogs, German Shepherds, Border Collies, Maltipoos, Labradors, so I'm comfortable with dogs of all breeds, sizes and personalities. Before caring for your dog, I'd love to learn everything that makes them unique, their routine, personality, favorite activities, any quirks, dietary needs or anything else that will help us have a fun, safe and enjoyable time together. My goal is to make your dog feel happy, comfortable, and loved while you're away.

“Prerna is very responsive and easy to coordinate with. She has been great company for Tigger while his owner was unexpectedly away. She clearly takes extra care in her visits - Tigger very much loved having her around to spend time with and his needs were very well looked after.”

“Nguyen & Sami are amazing! They took care of my two little bunnies while I was away for a long weekend and they were super nice followed our instructions properly to ensure our little rabbits were properly care and loved while we were away. They sent lots of cute pictures too ensuring we knew they were doing well. They really think of everything and I can tell they love animals I will trust them to take care of Miel and Mota again :) Thanks a lot guys”

“I have booked Jummy several times. She’s great - kind, responsive, and responsible. I appreciate the detail in her updates (how my cat is doing, any signs of anxiety, how he is bonding with her). My cat loves her. Thanks Jummy!!”

About: I've cared for pets belonging to friends and family for years, and I'm also a proud cat mom! I've been a dog mom since I was a kid, so animals have always been a big part of my life. My love for pets runs deep, and I’m passionate about making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and most of all—happy. Whether it’s cuddles, playtime, or quiet company, I focus on what each pet needs to feel at home. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine! I work from home, which gives me the flexibility to provide attentive, consistent care throughout the day. I have time for walks, playtime, and lots of one-on-one attention. There are plenty of parks and green spaces nearby, so dogs get to enjoy fun, safe outings and fresh air. Whether it's a quick check-in, a cuddle break, or an afternoon stroll, I love making pet care a regular part of my day. When caring for pets in their own home, I prioritize creating a calm, stress-free environment where they feel safe and comfortable. I follow each pet’s routine closely—feeding, playtime, and rest—to maintain consistency and reduce anxiety. I’m attentive to their behavior and needs, and I keep owners updated regularly with photos and messages to build trust. If caring for pets in my home, I ensure a clean, secure, and welcoming space with plenty of room for play and relaxation. I separate pets as needed for their safety and comfort and provide constant supervision to prevent any accidents. My home is fully pet-proofed, with access to fresh water, cozy resting spots, and toys to keep pets engaged and happy. Above all, I treat every pet like family—respecting their individual personalities and ensuring they feel loved and secure.
