House Sitting Willowdale

“We have hired Venissa several times since we got our dogs. She has been great with them and Tokyo and Petra love her. We have had issues with flight changes and dates having to be moved and she has always been helpful to try and accommodate, which we greatly appreciate. She is our go to dog sitter!”

“Having Lavender stay with Jane was a huge relief for me. I was able to relax on my vacation, knowing my cat was loved and cared for. Lavender sent me regular updates and I can tell from the photos that Jane loved having Lavender there. I am happy with the whole Rover experience and will definitely request Lavender again.”

“Nicole is super awesome and nice to work with, and super accommodating as well. We got home an hour later and Nicole said she’s okay waiting for us, which we really appreciate it. She also provided lots of pictures and updates for us throughout the stay! Needless to say, we will be retaining her service again in the future for sure!”

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.

“Steffany was absolutely wonderful! She took amazing care of Xiaoho and kept me updated throughout my trip, which gave me so much peace of mind. It was clear Xiaoho was happy, comfortable, and well cared for the entire time. She also went above and beyond. I couldn't have asked for a better sitter and would absolutely book with her again. Highly recommend! 💖”

“Janelle was absolutely fantastic and one of the best sitters we've ever had. She was incredibly attentive to Willow and Shiloh, and it was clear they felt comfortable, happy, and well cared for with her. Her communication was outstanding from start to finish, with regular updates that gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. She treated our home and our dogs with genuine care, and we couldn't have asked for a better experience. We would 100% book Janelle again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and reliable sitter. Thank you, Janelle!”

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. ❤️

“We love having Elizabeth come sit for Rocky. She's very helpful, occasionally providing us with useful tips on products or accessories to help with allergies or better general health. Also, noticing behavior tendencies that we haven't picked up on yet. All so helpful for a young pup!”

About: I have over 10 years of experience caring for dogs and cats. Pets have always been an important part of my life. I’ve cared for both puppies/kittens and senior pets, so I understand the different needs at each stage of life. My goal is to make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and happy. I am always available and at home, so I can provide care at any time of the day or week. Taking care of pets is part of my daily life, and I love giving them attention, love, and peace. I spend most of my time at home, so your pet will never be left alone for long. I enjoy daily walks with dogs and playtime with cats. I always use your pet’s own bed and toys for comfort, but I also have extra toys at home to keep them entertained. I provide a safe, clean, and calm environment at all times.

About: Hello, and thank you for visiting my profile! I have cared for animals for as long as I can remember, I became a cat mum in 2008. I’ve had three cats over the years, as well as rabbits, hamsters, fish and even a tortoise, so animals have always been a huge part of my life. I started cat sitting in 2022. I can be very flexible with visits and can fit around your cat or dogs usual routine as much as possible. Many of the babies I care for have timid personalities and one of my favourite parts of cat sitting is taking the time to earn their trust. I’m very patient and always let cats lead - I always pay attention to body language. More often than not, even the shyest ones end up becoming my little friends by the end of the booking! I absolutely adore boisterous and curious personalities too, I love to give attention and loads of cuddles. I have experience administering oral medication, syringe medication and insulin injections for cats. While you’re away, I’ll keep you updated with plenty of photos, videos and messages so you can relax knowing your cat is happy, safe and well cared for. I genuinely adore cats and dogs, I would love the opportunity to look after yours. Whether they’re playful, independent, cuddly or a little bit introverted, I’ll make sure they get lots of care, attention and company while you’re away. I work remotely and can be very flexible with visits. I am available mornings, midday and evenings. I do drive so can get to you easily by foot or car. I am very respectful and considerate of each pet owners home environment. I will always ensure pets and property are kept safe. I ensure doors are locked upon exit and windows are closed (unless otherwise requested).

About: I enjoy spending time with animals and making sure they’re happy, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. Reliable and lifelong Pet Owner. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to consistently prioritize pet care. I can reliably provide walks, feeding, playtime, bathroom breaks, and companionship as needed. I prioritize your pet’s safety and comfort by carefully following their routine and your instructions, while providing attentive supervision, secure walks, feeding, and regular updates.

About: I have taken care of dogs since I was 12, I normally walk dogs and make sure to be focused on their necessities. I've done senior care with not only my dog but my neighbours and I have always been happy to do it and be with them whenever I can be useful. I can basically walk or sit every Monday to Thursday from 4-11 or 12 (it depends). Fridays to Sundays y can work any hour for how ever much time you need. I stay with the dog(s) all the time. If I am going on a walk with them then I am most definitely trying to go for long distances or whatever the dog needs or wants (it will mostly depend on their age). I would love to hear anything special that you'd want me to do with you dog, because I will be delighted to do it. I mostly play with them till they tire out and just try to vibe with them.

“Vania is caring, reliable and trustworthy. She has cared for my 3 senior dogs a few times already and I have no hesitation in booking her again.”

About: As a proud guardian of an energetic Border Collie mix and a dog trainer-in-training, I know firsthand what it takes to fulfill both the physical drive and mental enrichment needs of intelligent, active dogs. What sets my care apart: • Canine Behavior & Body Language Expertise: With hands-on experience handling diverse breeds and temperaments—including shelter rescues and sensitive dogs—I accurately read subtle stress signals, respect their comfort thresholds, and prevent overstimulation to keep outings calm and safe. • Structured Walks & Leash Skills: During walks, I actively encourage loose-leash habits, focus games, and impulse control while giving dogs plenty of "sniffari" decompression time to satisfy their natural curiosity without frustration. • Puppy Management & Routine Building: Experienced in puppy care, including reinforcing potty training schedules, redirecting mouthy behaviors, crate comfort, and introducing calm, positive socialization. • Enrichment & Mental Stimulation: I believe a mentally stimulated dog is a happy, relaxed dog. I incorporate puzzle feeders, lick mats, and engaging focus games tailored to your pup's energy level. • Respectful Home & Overnight Sitting: When staying in your home, I follow your pet's exact daily routines, treat your space with complete respect, and provide clear, photo-filled updates for your peace of mind. Whether your dog needs a patient companion for neighborhood walks or an attentive, knowledgeable sitter while you are away, I treat every dog with the same care, safety, and respect I give my own. Pet care is a natural and consistent priority in my daily routine. As a dedicated dog handler, my schedule is structured around high-quality exercise, timely potty breaks, and mental enrichment. • For House Sitting: I provide dedicated evening, overnight, and morning care directly in your home. While I may step out for a few hours during the day for work or walks, dogs are never left unattended for longer than 3–4 hours at a time, ensuring they receive midday potty relief, feeding, and companionship. • For Dog Walking & Visits: My weekday and weekend schedules allow ample flexibility for scheduled walks and drop-ins, whether your pup needs a midday decompression walk or weekend exercise. Before confirming any booking, I always review schedules in detail during our Meet & Greet to ensure my availability seamlessly matches your dog’s specific routine. Thorough Intake & Consultation: Before any booking, I go through a detailed checklist with you about your pet’s routine, triggers, home access, and emergency contacts, and I'm always happy to do a phone call to talk through any specifics. • Force-Free & Safety-First Handling: I utilize secure, properly fitted gear and never use aversive equipment. On walks, I maintain full situational awareness to give other dogs and unfamiliar triggers plenty of space. • Respectful In-Home Etiquette: In your home, I treat your personal space with total care and cleanliness. I adhere strictly to your dog's established feeding, crating, and medication schedules to minimize any disruptions or stress. • Ongoing Communication: You will receive timely photo and text updates during every booking, keeping you fully informed of your dog's mood, potty breaks, and daily activities.

About: I’ve grown up with both dogs and cats, so I’m comfortable caring for either. Over the years, I’ve helped take care of pets for friends and family, and have a dog and cat of my own. I’m confident handling different temperaments and always make sure pets feel safe, loved, and well cared for. Im currently working remotely which gives me time to spend a lot of time with the pets and offer long walks and potty breaks! Overall able to be present with pet. I understand how important it is to feel confident about who’s caring for your pet. I have a dog myself, so I truly know they’re more than just pets, they’re family. I have a well-socialized maltipoo myself who loves making new friends. I’m also happy to follow any specific routines or preferences to make the transition as smooth and stress-free as possible.

“We had such a great experience with Kaleigh! She took amazing care of our pets while we were away and gave us such peace of mind knowing they were in good hands. She was kind, responsible, communicative, and clearly really cared about them. She also took great care of our home, which we really appreciated. We’re so grateful for everything she did and would absolutely have her pet sit for us again. Highly recommend! 🐾”

About: I grew up with dogs and once had a Japanese Spitz. We spent sixteen years together. After she passed away, I haven’t considered getting a new pet for now, but I want to extend my love for her to other furry friends and share companionship with them. I’m currently working part-time, so my schedule is very flexible. For overnight stays, please book in advance, but for dog-walking services, just let me know a day ahead. When caring for dogs, I prioritize both scientific understanding and kindness. I have endless patience with them and always ensure their safety while allowing them the freedom to play and enjoy themselves. My goal is to create a positive and stress-free experience, where dogs feel comfortable, happy, and well-cared for.
