House Sitting Wagner's Corner

“Torgeir took excellent care of my two cats during a week of house-sitting. The cats grew very fond of Torgeir and sought him out for snuggles and play time. I returned to a clean house and calm, happy cats. Would definitely hire Torgeir again.”

“Wenge was very sweet and very attentive to my elderly cat, Olive. I especially appreciated the fact that she was willing and able to come and house/cat sit at very short notice after I was gifted a surprise two night get-away. Thank you SO much, Wenge.”

Cathy C.

“Our two Chocolate Labs were in great shape when we got home. Appreciated seeing pictures of them enjoying their kiddie pool and hearing when they were napping since this was our first time hiring Elle. Will definitely be using her services again for our next adventure! 💕”

About: I have taken care of many pets since I’m a child, so I’m very experienced and love to stay with them. I would love to provide the same care to your pet. I’m home full time, so I can care for the dogs according to your schedule based on their daily routine. I can keep them like home. I’m serious about keeping them safe and healthy, so I’ll watch them full time whenever they’re having meals, take rests or interacting with each other.

“Amanda was an amazing dog sitter and perfect house guest. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable sitter. Looking forward to hosting her again in the future!”

About: FIRST TIME BOOKING WITH ROVER? RECEIVE $20 OFF WITH MY CODE: KIRAO92445 I love being around animals. I have had many cats all my life and now I have a Husky named Aurora who is an absolute joy to care for . I have a 3 story townhouse with lots of space for playing and a fenced in yard with space to run and have unlimited potty breaks! Aurora loves other dogs and is not aggressive at all(she's not spayed). I am available around the clock to keep an eye on your furbabies and/or have a vehicle to visit your home for walks and anything else your pet needs. My cats keep to themselves but do not appreciate being chased, I can arrange to keep them in a separate room if need be. I can't wait to hear about all your little cuties and arrange for a time to meet you and them! I am a hairstylist working from home, I work part time as a beauty advisor and hangout with pets with the rest of my free time :) Because I have a fenced yard I can offer many potty breaks if needed and Aurora is available all day to play and tire your pup out! If your pup needs a lot of walks, I can also provide that no problem whatsoever.

About: I provide reliable, attentive care tailored to each pet’s needs. I currently look after a senior dog who requires scheduled pee breaks, support with mobility, and two easy going snuggly cats. My experience includes short-term and long stay with both mixed pet homes and single pet homes. Cat care included feeding schedules, litter cleaning, and plenty of lap time. I am comfortable with senior pets, pets with medical needs, and busy multi-pet households. I prioritize routine and attention to their wants. I work online with a deeply flexible schedule, I can interrupte what I do at any moment. Caring for your pets is my privilege and joy. When caring for pets in your home, I follow your routine exactly as you set it. I’m a long-time homeowner myself, and I treat your space with the same respect and care I expected in mine. Clear routines & structure • I follow your schedule for feeding, walks, medications, movement support, and bedtime routines. • I confirm details like coat/boot use, leash type, walk length, and whether your dog needs structured play or a run. • I maintain established routines between multiple pets, including safe feeding order and supervised interactions. Home safety & respect • No guests ever enter your home. • I am a quiet, low-impact presence. • Doors are locked, areas of the house you specify are avoided, and I follow your nighttime routine for pee breaks and house security. • I tidy as I go and leave your home as I found it. Pet-specific care details • I confirm treat limits, what behaviour they’re used for, and any food or item that must remain inaccessible. • I ask about any recent food changes, sensitivities, or mobility concerns. • I monitor subtle changes—energy, appetite, bathroom habits—and communicate anything noteworthy. Cleanliness & preparedness • I ask where cleaning supplies, vacuums, or mops are kept in case of spills or accidents. • Litter, food areas, water bowls, and pet spaces are kept clean and consistent. Communication & emergencies • I provide daily updates and will clarify any instruction necessary to ensure accuracy. • I follow your emergency plan, including your preferred veterinarian. • Cameras, alarms, or home-specific systems are respected exactly as directed. My goal is simple: your pets feel secure, your home is respected, and your instructions are followed with precision.

About: If my name is hard to pronounce you can call me Dora! If the dogs or cats want to take my chair or bed, I the type of person who would sit or sleep somewhere else. As a former researcher, I would always try to understand animals behavior in a scientific way, and of course in a loving way. I love a clean and tidy space. I work from home and with no family around, so your pet would become my best friend. I work from home and do lots of walks everyday, so all the pet's need can be taken care of nicely. I take at least two walks everyday, stay the rest of time at home working, that's why I'm capable of pet care. And most importantly, I love pets. I can care the pets in the way he was cared at home. I have a cat and lots of energy to take the dog on a walk, and the flexibility to meet the dog's need.

About: I am home all day to Love and Protect your pet. My home is quiet and my arms are open for pups, seniors, those in-between & even your quirky rescue. Animals aren’t a side hobby for me; they’ve been the central thread of my life. I grew up caring for and training horses and dogs, which taught me to read animal body language before I could even read books. Raising puppies is my true love—they fill my heart and soul. Over the years, I have loved and cared for five of my own dogs from their very first puppy steps all the way to their final resting places—including my Shepherd (Max), my Rottweiler (Misty), my Golden/Rottie mix (Maisy), and my Golden Retriever (Lily). From years of agility training to countless puppy classes at McCann’s, I’ve poured my life into understanding and bonding with dogs. While I am on Rover to offer boarding, housesitting, and drop-in care—not formal training services—my deep background means your pet is in exceptionally skilled, safe hands. I have been a puppy raiser for National Service Dogs, successfully raising a pup who graduated to assist a first responder with PTSD. I also have a deep comfort level with rescues and senior dogs—whether it's connecting and gaining the trust of a reactive rescue Pitbull/Rottweiler mix for five months, or catering to the slow, gentle pace of a sweet 15-year-old Dachshund like Diesel. Whether you have a brand-new puppy who needs consistent crate training and patience, an elder statesdog who needs extra care, or a rescue who requires an experienced handler who truly understands their world, I offer a level of intuition, safety, and genuine love that goes far beyond standard pet sitting. I also provide drop-in care for cats who prefer staying in their own kingdom. You can travel knowing your pet is being cherished as one of my own. PS. Dogs are welcome on the furniture and I may encourage them to hop up on the bed Because I m home full-time, your pet becomes the primary focus. They won't be left alone for long stretches or stuck in a crate while someone works a 9-to-5. My home is a quiet, predictable environment where your puppy can get the frequent potty breaks they need, or your senior dog can get the peace, quiet, and cuddles they deserve. Whether they are staying with me or I am visiting them, they get my undivided attention, endless affection, and a seamless continuation of their normal daily routine. My home will be an extension of yours - whatever rules your pets have - the use of crates, or not; on or off furniture, specific feeding or walk times. I am here to support. My yard is not fenced, which means more time together outside (on leash).

“Stefan took excellent care of our girls. We could tell they had a blast when we got back. Lots of texts photos and regular updates. Will surely hire in the future!”

About: I have been a pet parent all of my life. I grew up on a farm with every sort of animal. My parents bred Dachshunds and American Eskimos. Currently, I am mom to a rescued Frenchie girl with a heart murmur. She has a Grade 3 of 6 heart murmur which makes me especially familiar with special needs animals. Being a Frenchie mom also means that I am aware of the special needs of Brachycephalic dog breeds (especially during the hot summer months). I worked in a privately owned holistic pet store for more than four years helping customers find the right food, treats and remedies for their fur babies. There is no more satisfying feeling than the results of the help I provided. Seeing the transformation of the fur baby and the happiness that it brought to their pet parent ❤️ I also fostered for Niagara Dog Rescue for a brief period before finding my forever girls. I dealt with dogs with behavioural issues and showed them that not all humans hurt or leave. No request or care detail is ever overlooked. Post walk paw cleaning, face fold cleaning, special post walk treats... Clean water from a freshly washed bowl. Whatever your pup needs will be done. I practice Cesar Millan's techniques and am a calm and confident walker. However; I also know how super important it is for pups to have the opportunity for enrichment through sniffing. All dogs are the cute, cuddle kind. I can't wait to meet yours! I'm home full time other than when walking or checking on fur friends. Your fur family will be able to get as much time and love as they need while you are out/away. In my home, your fur babies become adopted family and will be given the freedom to roam and cuddle wherever they like. If your fur baby needs the safe space of a crate, that is completely doable.

“It was our first time leaving our Frenchie Lily with a sitter and Christine made the entire experience stress-free and comfortable. She took the time to learn about Lily and her personal needs. Lily had a great time and we definitely trust Christine to take care of our fur baby!! She sent us lots of photos and updates, that was really appreciated. Thank you so much Christine, I would recommend her to anyone. We will definitely be booking Christine again!”

About: I have had dogs and cats my whole life including Guinea pigs and fish as well. I did schooling in some vet tech care for all animals. I have worked in professional doggy daycare settings as well and walking and checking in for potty breaks or feeding and cleaning litter. I work in the trades from 8am-5pm Monday to Friday and am free anytime before or after that and weekends to help you out with any of your pets needs! I care for my own pets amazingly there always groomed and litter is cleaned daily fed daily and of course playing with all kinds of toys for enrichment and exercise. I love taking dogs on walks and playing a good game of fetch or tug.

About: Your dog's personal preferences come first! I love dogs and do my best to hear their needs. I have taken dogs through more than 200 training classes, either for my many adult rescues or on behalf of local Humane Societies. I've helped integrate many large dogs into foster homes. My previous large breed dog visited seniors' homes and schools. Whether your dog stays with me, I come to your home, or we just head out for walks, my schedule is flexible every day, and I send photo and video updates constantly or as many as you like. Your dog's day is full and structured. A morning walk to start, sniff breaks and yard time whenever they ask, a long daily outing if it suits them, and a calm evening wind-down. My schedule is flexible every day and I work from home for myself, so boarding dogs get lots of company, and when I have a guest I plan myself even closer to home than usual. If I'm caring for your dog in your home or walking them, that same flexibility means we work around your dog's routine, not mine. Dogs do best with consistency, and I provide it patiently and calmly. Every dog needs different types of direction. Communicating with your dog in the way they best understand is the first priority. I provide clear leadership, patience, and fear-free handling. Always considering and integrating your own standard handline style. Just calm direction, treats, and time. In my home, new dogs are introduced slowly, starting through a barrier with treats and distance while I read body language, then exploring the yard together once everyone is relaxed. I've attended more than 200 training classes as a handler of my own dogs and shelter dogs. Guests join a calm household with a gentle large Setter and a 7-pound senior, with a crate space for crate-trained dogs and a separate quiet floor for any dog who wants their own space. In your home, I follow your dog's routine exactly and keep things secure, doors, gates, and leash checks every time. On walks, I use secure equipment and give full attention. You'll get photos and videos every day.

“Lynn did an amazing job taking care of my dog and 2 cats! They were so well taken care of while I was away for the weekend, and I could see that through all of the pictures she sent during her time with my fur babies! I will definitely be booking Lynn again, she was amazing with all of my pets, and I knew they were in very good hands with her!”
