“Brian is awesome! Our dog, Hank, is a lot to handle. In only a few days, he's really helped us with making sure he walks properly... it has been quite the transformation. I would recommend Brian to anyone. You can tell he has tons of experience and genuinely cares about animals. He goes above and beyond, always sending pictures and giving updates.”

About: Ever since a young age I have been a huge animal lover. I grew up with a lab retriever which taught me the importance of giving every dog the utmost attention and love. Whether it's a playful pup or a chill senior dog, I treat every dog like family and always make sure they feel safe and happy while you're away. This has lead me to be trusted by neighbours, friends, and family with their furry friends over the last 3 years. I am recent graduate waiting for my full time job to start in August, so I have lots of time to spend hanging out with your dog :) Your dog’s safety is my top priority. I always make sure my home is pet-proofed, with no access to anything harmful. I am also a local so I know the best places around town for dog walks!

About: Hi! I’m Heather, and animals have been at the center of my world for as long as I can remember. I’ve had dogs my entire life, but nothing compares to the love I share with my current girl, Lyla — a Lab-Terrier mix who is truly our child. I’ve dedicated myself to her care, health, training, and happiness. Whether it’s long walks, belly rubs, or sneaking in healthy treats, I know how to tune into a dog’s needs and give them structure, comfort, and fun. I understand how hard it is to leave your pet behind — which is why I treat every animal I care for like family. You can count on me to give your dog the same attention, affection, and respect I give Lyla every single day. My flexible work-from-home schedule allows me to easily fit in drop-ins and dog walks throughout the day. As a busy professional who sets her own hours, I’m able to prioritize pet care and be there when your dog or cat needs me — whether it’s for a potty break, a midday walk, or just some company and love while you’re away. I’m dependable, punctual, and treat every visit as a chance to make your pet’s day a little happier. When I visit your home for drop-ins or walks, I treat it — and your pets — with the same care and respect I give my own. I follow your instructions closely, whether that means feeding, refreshing water bowls, administering meds, or just spending quality time with your pet to make sure they feel safe and loved while you’re away. For walks, I make sure your dog gets the exercise, sniff breaks, and mental stimulation they need — always using safe routes and checking for weather conditions. During drop-ins, I can also handle small tasks like bringing in mail, watering plants, or adjusting lights if requested. Above all, I aim to be a calm, consistent, and compassionate presence your pet can trust. You’ll always get updates and photos so you know exactly how your pet is doing.

“Lilli was easy to communicate with—responsive and flexible! My 110 lb boy loved walking with her and we both appreciate her being available last minute. Thank you Lilli! I’ll be reaching out soon”

About: My love for animals has been there since day 1! I grew up around all sorts of animals: dogs, cats, chickens, the list goes on. I loved my time on Rover in 2021 and I am excited to come back and meet new animals! I have a wide variety of pet care experiences from walks to house sitting to providing medicine. There is no animal I fear getting to know and taking care of!thank you for the opportunity to show your pets some love! Every week, I run and walk my dog a minimum of 4 times. I grew up with high energy dogs and love to get my exercise with pets. On the other hand, I love a cuddle bug moment and relaxing with my pets. Anything I can do for my pets I help out with: walks, feeding, administering medicine, picking up after them, etc. I am open to any and all services. I have had plenty of experience with walking dogs as well as house sitting for up to 5 animals at a time. I like to keep things clean and structured so there is no room for harm. My biggest moto for helping out is: leave the space better than you found it!

“Michael is a huge help with our girl Nala! She is anxious and afraid of most people but took to Michael bc of his patience and experience. Thank you for getting Nala to come out of her shell more during her weekly walks!”

About: I’ve been caring for and training dogs since I was 13, starting with my own dog who I raised from a young age. Over the years, I’ve worked with dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments—including service dogs and energetic puppies. I’m known by friends and family as the dog person: the one everyone turns to for advice on training, behavior, and care. My experience goes beyond just walks; I truly understand dogs and what they need to feel safe, happy, and loved. I bring patience, consistency, and a calm, confident presence to every walk and visit. I’m currently a student with a free schedule before the summer semester starts. I am free daily until my classes start, in which case I will then be available part-time. I am experienced in dog sitting, and have the utmost respect for your house and your pets safety. I am not currently available for pet sitting at my home.
