“Anissa was extremely attentive to mine and my cats needs. She went above and beyond. I even got a souvenir of my cat and a compilation video in the end :). I additionally asked her to water my outdoor plants and she did a stellar job with it. 10/10 would rebook with her again. Save yourself the stress and choose anissa!”

“The cats loved her so much I added an extra day of care! I came home to only mildly peeved cats affronted that we would leave so long, rather than truly annoyed creatures plotting our doom. :)”

“We had such a great experience with her! She did drop-in visits for our cat Simba while we were away on vacation, and we couldn’t have been happier. ❤️ She was very sweet with him, kept us updated with pictures and messages, and made us feel so much more relaxed knowing someone was checking on him while we were away. It was clear that she really cared about him and took her time during the visits. We came home to a happy kitty and everything was taken care of perfectly. We would definitely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring to check in on their pets! 🐱❤️”

“This is my second time working with Tannie. She’s always so caring to my cats, lets me know the details of the visits and always take care of them so well. She also lets me know if my cats show any signs of discomfort, and help me with solutions when I’m away. I trust her always with my cats:)”

About: I have been taking care of cats since I can't even remember actually. Cats naturally like me and I loveeee them all You can trust me for your cat care. Day or night.. I can come to your house if you live close by or close to transit. Feed them, play with them. I'm currently working part time at my home so I have plenty of time to take your precious ones. I have two teenage daughters too and they can help me after school as well. I respect you and follow your instructions. I have a home with a yard which is semi closed. I have a cat at home. She is neutralised, calm and easy going cat. She likes going out. You can leave your cat to me for many days and I make sure I will take him/her with responsability and follow your instructions.
“Anita took really good care of both of my cats, she took the initiative to come and get familiar with them before i even booked her. They got comfortable with her almost instantly, i would absolutely book her again and would highly recommend her to look after your fur babies!”

About: Hi, I'm Rui! I live in North York with Gemini, my Siberian cat, who firmly believes she owns the place — I'm just the staff. 🐾 🐾 🐾 🐱 CAT CARE: Caring for a Siberian means I'm fluent in high-maintenance: daily grooming for that thick double coat, strict feeding routines, litter box upkeep, proper play sessions, and spotting the small behaviour changes that tell you how a cat is really feeling. I've harness-trained Gemini and travel with her, so I truly understand cats with strong opinions — patience, consistency, and routine are everything. 🐾 🐾 🐾 🐶 DOG CARE: I've covered both ends of the size chart: I've walked and fed a friend's Doberman — large, strong, and full of energy — and I've cared for a family member's teddy Poodle, walks, baths, and daily grooming included. Big and powerful or small and fluffy, I'm comfortable either way, and I adapt to each dog's own routine and personality. 🐾 🐾 🐾 ✨ WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT: Drop-in visits follow your pet's routine to the letter — meals on schedule, fresh water, a clean litter box, and play or quiet company at their pace. Shy cat? I'll let them come to me. Social butterfly? Play session it is. Dog walks are matched to your dog's energy, pace, and usual route. And you'll get photos and updates from every visit, so you can actually relax while you're away. 🐾 🐾 🐾 💬 I speak English and 中文, and I'm happy to do a meet & greet before any first booking so I can learn your pet's personality, habits, and special instructions. Your pet gets the same standard of care I'd want for my own — and trust me, my standards are set by a very demanding Siberian. My schedule is flexible, and pet care fits easily around it. I'm available for drop-in visits and dog walks seven days a week, from 10 AM through the evening — midday walks, afternoon play sessions, or evening check-ins are all welcome. I'll always confirm timing with you in advance and do my best to match your pet's usual routine, because a predictable day is a calm pet. Your pet's safety — and your home's security — come first on every visit. I follow your instructions exactly, double-check doors and windows before I leave, and I'm extra careful at the door so indoor cats stay indoors. Your pet always gets fresh water, a clean space, and unhurried attention. On walks, I use your dog's own leash and gear, stay alert to our surroundings, and stick to their usual route. Shy or nervous animals get extra patience — no forced interaction, ever. And you'll receive photos and updates from every visit.
About: Hi, I’m Maurice. I grew up in the Netherlands and growing up my family fostered rescue dogs from Spain, so I’m used to all kinds of personalities: shy, anxious, high-energy, or reactive. I stay calm, read body language, and give dogs time to feel safe around me. I live in North York and keep routines steady: on-leash walks, fresh water, meds or meals as directed, doors locked, and harness/collar checks before every walk. No off-leash or dog parks unless you ask me to, and we can always try a short walk together first, to see if the dog is responsive to me. You’ll get clear updates each visit. I’m comfortable with large breeds, senior dogs, and pets with quirks or reactivity. I follow your training cues and your household rules. I’m currently working part-time with a flexible schedule, so I have plenty of time for your pets. I’m usually available weekends and weekday afternoons (after 2pm), but I’m happy to adjust: just reach out. Most bookings happen in your home so pets stay relaxed in their routine. I’m calm, tidy, respectful of your space, and happy to do a meet-and-greet first.
“Nicole is wonderful and gave me real peace of mind! Super responsive, diligent, kind, thoughtful, transparent, considerate, and so clean & tidy in the home. As a first-time user of an in-home sitter, I was hesitant, but Nicole was a very trustworthy professional from start to finish. My senior cat, Georgie, needs extra encouragement to eat and drink. Nicole was so intuitive and attentive that Georgie not only looked great but she was clearly so happy and thriving (I swear she was showing off her “new bestie” to me when I returned). Nicole is truly excellent to work with and great with providing updates. I’ve already recommended her to my neighbours and I hope she’ll be able to take care of Georgie again. Thank you again Nicole!”

About: Growing up around pets and working as a shelter trainer gave me a solid foundation in canine behavior, positive reinforcement, and managing all energy levels. Whether your pup needs fun long walks or sweet couch snuggles, I tailor my care to their routine. While you’re off enjoying your vacation, your dog will be having a blast staying with Auntie Zara! Since I work from home with a flexible schedule, I’m able to customize my daily routine completely around your pet’s needs. Whether your pup requires frequent outdoor breaks and playtime or your cat prefers company during their afternoon nap, being at home allows me to provide attentive, low-stress care and lots of love all day long. As a former dog shelter trainer, safety and trust are my top priorities. My training background means I’m always reading body language, anticipating needs, and maintaining secure environments to prevent stress or escape attempts. In My Home, I maintain a clean, secure, and pet-proofed environment where safety comes first. Dogs are monitored closely, kept on structured routines, and never left unsupervised in unsecured areas. In Your Home, I treat your space and pets with total respect. I strictly follow your house rules, stick to established feeding and exercise routines, and double-check doors, gates, and locks during every visit or overnight stay. I send regular photo and video updates, clear communication, and plenty of happy check-ins.
About: I’ve been caring for dogs my whole life, from looking after friends’ and family members’ pets to providing them with lots of love, attention, and care. I’m also a professional dog groomer, so I have experience handling dogs of different sizes, personalities, and needs. You can feel confident knowing your pets are in caring, experienced, and trustworthy hands! I’m currently in my last year of university and have a very light schedule, which gives me plenty of flexibility and availability. I live alone and am naturally a homebody, so I spend most of my time at home. This makes me a great fit for pets who love having company, attention, and affection throughout the day! I’m happy to spend lots of quality time with your pets and make sure they feel comfortable, loved, and cared for while you’re away. 🐾 I live alone, so your pet will have a calm, quiet, and comfortable environment with plenty of one-on-one attention. I always prioritize their safety and well-being and will treat them like my own. ❤️

About: I have 7 years of experience caring for cats in Hong Kong, so I understand the importance of patience, consistency, and paying attention to each pet’s unique personality and needs. I know that every cat is different, and I take the time to help them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I’m responsible, gentle, and attentive to details, whether it’s following feeding routines, keeping their space clean, or spending quality time playing with them. I’ll treat your pet with the same care and attention I would give my own, and keep you updated so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I am currently working at part time remote jobs, so we have plenty of time to take care of the pets and be around with them.

About: I have loved animals for many years and had my own cat from around 2012 until 2022.

“Jasmin is amazing with my cats as always ! They look forward to seeing her every time I’m away. She’s really prompt with texts and helped out when my one cat was unwell and was really quick to change their food and take care of them. Looking forward to have Jasmin pet sit soon again. Thanks !”

About: I have experience caring for dogs of different sizes, including a Border Collie and smaller breeds. I’m comfortable with both active, high-energy dogs and smaller dogs with different exercise needs. I make sure dogs get outside at least twice a day, with walks typically lasting 30–60 minutes depending on their energy level and routine. I also enjoy providing plenty of playtime, toys, attention, and companionship at home. I’m happy to follow each owner’s usual routine and care instructions so their dog can feel comfortable and well cared for while they’re away. I’m available for drop-in visits and walks on weekends, as well as on weekday evenings after work. On Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays, I have more flexibility and can also provide daytime care. My schedule may vary slightly, so feel free to message me and I’ll be happy to coordinate a time that works best for you and your pet. I live in a condo with my own cat, so I generally prefer providing drop-in visits and walks at your home, where your pet can stay comfortable in their familiar environment. My cat is friendly and is used to being around dogs, so I can also accommodate pets in my home when needed. They are welcome to move around freely in the condo and spend time with us. Safety is always important to me. Even though my cat is comfortable around dogs, I prefer to separate them when I’m away from home or overnight, especially with a new dog, until I’m confident that they are completely comfortable with each other. I’ll always follow your pet’s usual routine and make sure they have a safe, comfortable, and relaxed stay.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Willowdale
Manni was wonderful with our senior cat Pandora. She followed Pandora's complicated care routine exactly, and she was so careful and patient with her. We received lots of photos and videos with every visit, which gave us real peace of mind while we were away. Manni communicates clearly, is reliable, and genuinely cares about the animals she looks after. We would happily book her again and recommend her to anyone with a senior or special-needs cat.
Siqi was amazing! Great with communication, very reliable, took great care of the cats and tended to all their needs and really looked after the appartment by watering plants, changing the garbage and keeping things tidy. I would highly recommend Siqi as a cat sitter and look forward to using her services again! ☺️

I hired Amanda to walk my cat, who thinks he's a dog. He's not, but who am I to shatter his dreams? She took him out for a 30 minute stroll, made sure he was fed and brushed, and all settled in his cat bed before I got home. It's hard leaving my furbaby home and going to work, but it gives me peace of mind knowing he's getting his daily walk and cuddle even when I'm not there. 5/5

We had such a great experience with her! She did drop-in visits for our cat Simba while we were away on vacation, and we couldn’t have been happier. ❤️ She was very sweet with him, kept us updated with pictures and messages, and made us feel so much more relaxed knowing someone was checking on him while we were away. It was clear that she really cared about him and took her time during the visits. We came home to a happy kitty and everything was taken care of perfectly. We would definitely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring to check in on their pets! 🐱❤️

Miral is an amazing sitter. I was little anxious to leave my cat who I recently adopted for the first time at home as I had to go on a trip but Miral ensured I felt at ease about it. Miral is punctual, will understand your and your pet’s needs, will follow instructions, ensure you are updated on every visit and will flag if she notices something out of the ordinary. I highly recommend her.

Ari was able to accommodate our request for drop-in visits to our cat on a very short notice. She followed the instructions closely, was very gentle and attentive to our shy kitty, and shared detailed updates and pictures from the visits so we never felt worried. Thank you so much!
