“We are extremely happy we had to leave our home with short noses and with no hesitation Randi helped us oh and Trip had a ball And I was sleeping because he’s exhausted all the fun he had with her and your family”

“Gail is amazing! My 2.5-year-old husky came back happy, well cared for, and completely tired out after his stay. It was clear that her entire family helped take care of him, not just Gail, which made me feel even more comfortable leaving him there. She provided regular photo updates and communicated very well throughout the stay. I would 100% recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable dog sitter.”

“Howl had another wonderful stay at Fiona and Dale’s! He stayed for multiple nights and had a great time playing with the other pups :) Fiona sent daily updates with videos and photos! Thank you again for loving our boy! Will definitely be booking again.”

“Alysha and her family were so great with my dog Bo! He stayed with them for 3 nights and had so much fun! Alysha kept me updated and reassured me the stay was going well (I was a bit nervous because Bo can bark quite a bit at first with other dogs) and sent me photos and updates of their adventures as they cuddled him and exercised his energy with lots of walks and adventures. I cannot recommend Alysha and her family enough and will definitely book with them again if they are available when I go away in the future!”


“My dog clearly had a wonderful time with Melissa! She sent me lots of pictures of him living his best life, and I felt super confident that he was in the best of hands! I am so appreciative of her excellent care.”

“Josue and his family were amazing in taking care of Aspen. They were also very considerate and flexible during pick-up/drop-off. We received continuous updates and Aspen had a great time with their dog as well. Would definitely recommend Josue to anyone looking for a great sitter!”

“Rocky had a great time with Madison and Jeffrey. It was his first boarding experience, and being a puppy, we weren’t sure how he would behave in a new environment. He was happy and relaxed and it looked like he could be their pet as well! Rocky is looking forward to his next stay with Madison and Jeffrey in 2 weeks!”

“Olivia is a very responsible girl, patient and with a lot of energy to share with Toffee (Lab 1 year) who demands a lot and with her was able to make new friends, go for a walk and even share with her kitten , She bring us feedback during the day about the activities with our dog. 100% recommended”

“She was amazing! She sent me plenty of pictures and videos of Milo, and he looked so happy and comfortable with Samantha and her husband. I’ll definitely rebook with them next time. She’s very kind, responsible, and even accommodated when I needed to extend my time—she was more than happy to take care of Milo longer. Highly recommend!”

“Had a great experience with Jana and our 14 pound shihpoo. Jana is kind, attentive and responds quickly. You can tell she is a genuine pet enthusiast who has a wonderful setup in her home for you pup to feel safe and provided for. She took our pup on lots of long walks and made sure he had everything he needed.”

“Jessica and her husband were incredible with my little guy. Our dog can be super high maintenance but he seems to feel right at home with the both of them. They will certainly be our preferred sitter for our little guy!”

“Our first time boarding our Bordoodle with Yani. She provided excellent care and attention to all his needs. He was fussy about eating and Yani suggested food toppers to bring for his upcoming multi-day stay with her. She ensured he and the other dogs in her care got along well. We have peace of mind knowing Quigley will be in good hands while we’re away”

“Charitini did an amazing job watching rory! Shes great and super patient with her. She kept us updated on rorys progress, overall definitely would trust her to watch rory again!”

“Can’t Thank her enough for her gentle care and warmth with my buddy, Berny…!!! She took utmost care of him whilst I was away for urgent trip, timely notifications and updates, which were perfect to see him enjoying…. THANK YOU AGAIN…!!”

Waterloo pet parents share their Rover experiences
If it was not for Isha and Carlos… I don’t know what I would do! They love our pup as much as we do and everytime we leave Grimm, it is worry free because we know she is in the best hands. This is the 3rd long trip we have left Grimm with them for. I actually felt bad picking Grimm up because it seemed like she was having a blast and didn’t want to go.. I’m getting a little jealous by how much she loves them ! 😜 We received photos/ videos everyday of Grimm which was so nice. Never had to ask for an update! Thanks for everything!

Charitini & Pana took great care of Moose when we were away for a couple of days. It was our first time dropping Moose off with them and they made him feel right at home. Took him on lots of walks and played with him so he wouldn’t be bored. He came home happy, tired and ready to crash! We will definitely reach out to them next time we are looking for boarding for Moose.

Amazing and very kind and caring lady! She has looked after our dear dog several times! We are so happy to have found her! Very professional, keep us updated every single day with texts, photos and videos of our dog, and took our dog for several daily walks. She also cared for our dog by giving her meds and food exactly the way we needed it her to have them. Overall I will totally recommend Carmen! And we hope to continue having her look after dog in the future! Thank you so much Carmen!

Behnaz is one of our favourite sitters and she just hosted our dog for two weeks. She took excellent care of her and ensured she got exercise tailored to her rehab program, had her medications and appropriate enrichment. She was very conscientious about details from the right amount for the weight loss diet our dog is (sadly!) on to monitoring her for other health concerns. We feel so much at ease when our dog is with Behnaz and would strongly recommend her. We even drove from out of town before a flight just to make sure our dog was in the beat hands for a long stay. Thank you for the love and care !

Dogs came back healthy and tired, it seems like the dogs had a great time. They asked great questions and had a pretty good intro routine set up at the dog intro which made us very confident leaving our dogs with them. Will definitely reach out about dog-sitting in the future!

Had a great experience with Jana and our 14 pound shihpoo. Jana is kind, attentive and responds quickly. You can tell she is a genuine pet enthusiast who has a wonderful setup in her home for you pup to feel safe and provided for. She took our pup on lots of long walks and made sure he had everything he needed.

Hayley is a fantastic cat sitter! She took wonderful care of my senior cat, effortlessly managing a more complex feeding routine. She is reliable, attentive, and clearly has a lot of love for animals. My cat Olivia had the best time, she got so many cuddles! If you’re looking for someone you can trust with your pets..especially those needing a little extra TLC…Hayley is the one!"

Cole and Hanee showed my two German shepherds the kind of love and attention that parrelels my devotion for them. For 8 days they sent pictures and videos of them running in a fenced yard or multiple walks around the parks. Including giving my girls affectionate hugs and doing tricks. I highly recommend this couple to everyone.
