“Kamryn was great! Arya went crazy and was so excited when she arrived. She fed her and kept me updated through the night. Highly recommend and will be booking with her again!!”


“Alexis was an amazing pet sitter overnight for my dog Stewey. Right from the beginning she went above and beyond bc I had a complicated scheduling situation and she was able to manage all of it like a pro. My dog loved her right away and she has a gentleness that makes you feel totally confident that she will do a great job. She is empathetic, caring and smart. Our communication was also top notch sending updates and when she had a question. In every way it was a great experience and I will book her again in a heartbeat the next time Stewey needs a pet sitter. Thank you Alexis!”


“Jennifer was an absolute delight. Very personable and took such great care of my puppy. She shared great tips and asked me wonderful questions to make sure the experience was good.”


About: I’ve been working with dogs since I was 15 I’m now 28. I’ve done dog walking/pet sitting for 3 years now. I love meeting everyone’s dogs and treating them like my own. I run a health business on my phone so I do walks whenever there is someone in need of one. If someone needs helps I’m here. Whatever your request is for your pup I will do in the best of care with the best amount of love and care for your furry one

“Maggie does a great job. The dogs love her. They are happy to see her and sad to see her go. They and we look forward to seeing her again. Really reassured when she's with the dogs while we're away.”


“Chelsey was absolutely wonderful! She communicated often and sent updates on my two pups throughout the day. My dogs were so happy and seemed to love her! Highly recommend Chelsey and will definitely be rebooking with her next time we need a sitter.”



“Morgan was amazing. She was constantly sending updates and pictures of Rigs and I never had to worry for a single second. And my house was cleaner than I left it when I got home. I will definitely be using Morgan again!!!”


About: With over six years of hands-on pet care experience, I’ve worked for three pet sitting companies, the MCSPCA, and at the same kennel twice. I’ve cared for dogs, cats, and countless other animals—big and small—with love, patience, and reliability. Growing up surrounded by animals shaped my deep passion for their well-being, and I’m committed to treating every pet like family. 💞🐾 Pet care fits easily into my weekly routine, as I currently work part-time and have a flexible schedule. That means I have plenty of time and energy to dedicate to your pet. I'm available for dog walking and drop-in visits during the week and weekends, and I’m happy to help with holiday or last-minute bookings. Spending time with animals is something I genuinely love, so this never feels like “work” to me—it’s something I look forward to every day. I grew up with dogs and have been surrounded by animals for most of my life, so I understand how important it is to find someone you trust with your pet. While I don’t offer in-home boarding, I treat every animal in my care as if they were my own. I always follow instructions carefully, prioritize safety, and strive to make every visit calm, fun, and stress-free. Whether it’s a big, energetic pup or a shy senior cat, I have experience with pets of all shapes, sizes, and personalities.

“Samantha is kind patient and reliable. I would recommend her to any and all pet owners!”



“Angelica was so attentive to Max, our 13 week Cavapoo. I got lots of photos and video throughout the weekend. He was so happy playing and snuggling with Angelica and didn’t have any accidents on the rugs. I would recommend Angelica without reservation. She left the house tidier than it was before the weekend!”


About: I’ve taken care of dogs and have done fostering of dogs since 2019. My friends, neighbours, and their friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed, and be with their dogs. I have stayed at dog owners place and sometimes dogs have even stayed at my place too. I’m currently working full-time in a software engineering industry but my work is fully remote and therefore the dog allows me to get up from my chair and help them have a walk while me also taking a walk break from screen and work. I’m a very clean person so you wouldn’t find things laying around in my place. I am very cautious while walking the dog and will follow the instructions that are provided.

“I'm so grateful to have found Bethany! I booked her for 5 nights with walks at my house and she took amazing care of my huge Newfoundland, Ted. He actually had an injury and the care and attention she showed him while I was gone completely warmed my heart. She treated him like he was her own and went overboard to make sure he was walked, fed, snacked, and loved constantly. Bethany also took great care of my home! She was in constant communication with me which really helped my anxiety with leaving him! (First time) Ted absolutelyyyy loved her too. So happy to have found her on here and highly recommend her.”


About: I’ve taken care of many different dogs since the age of 11. I used to dog sit with my mother, and take in dogs of all sizes! I’ve fed, walked, and bathed dogs, and played with them of course. I had a senior dog, who I cleaned after all the time, and I have experience in helping others senior dogs! I work a few days a week part-time, so I have plenty of time for taking care of these furry friends and getting a start on my career path to becoming a veterinarian. In my clients homes, I respect the environment and take care of the quality of the home! I clean after these friends with care and ease, and make sure the furry ones feel comfortable and safe with me in their homes.

About: I have experience training and caring for dogs and cats. I Specialize in dogs with hearing issues/ deafness. Both of my dogs are graduates of multiple behavioral and obedience classes resulting in our therapy certifications. We visit a multitude of schools, hospitals and other wellness centers. All volunteer work done by my companions and myself is strictly a passion and non profit. I was inspired by a visitation to my grandfather by a golden retriever, when my grandfather was in the hospital for open heart surgery. Seeing my grandfathers reaction to a dog visitation while he was in the hospital was a monumental moment for me that further inspired my passion and drive to work with dogs. I currently work early mornings for a government agency as an officer which gives me a lot of available free time at off times of the day and week. Making me readily available to care for your pets . A fenced yard is a must. My dogs are trained and raised to be curious and outgoing, thus a fence is needed. Although my dogs don’t need a leash, I find it’s necessary to generally have a leash attached. I allow my dogs to be curious, and put there noses where many wouldn’t generally allow. It’s important to always cover your stove switches/ burners with dog safety devices!. But ultimately I strongly believe in allowing your dogs and pets to be curious and open to learning. Dogs and cats alike are much smarter then most realize, and I believe this is there first time living as well.. and deserve the best experiences life has to offer!

“Nicole was great! Very patient with our dog who takes time to warm up to new people. She kept us in the loop, sent updates and photos, and was overall fantastic to our pets! I would 100% recommend.”


“Toni was AMAZING!! She house sat and pet sat for our dog and 2 cats - everything was super smooth - great communication, sent photos and all the pets loved her - even our shy Tabby 🐱- will 10/10 book Toni again when we need to leave town and can’t take the fur babies with us!!”


“Thank you for doing such a great job watching Rocky. He really enjoyed his time with you!”


About: I have volunteered at an animal shelter for 8 months, taking care of cats, dogs, bunnies, and anything that came through those doors. I have dealt with waste, scratches (thankfully not bites). I love to get outside and move and pets are a great way to do that, however, I don’t have any of my own right now so I’m excited at the chance to walk and interact with others! I work 7am-3:30pm Saturday - Wednesday. Therefore I am free in the early afternoons and on Thursday and Friday. I love to get exercise so I will walk as long or as little as your fur baby needs. I am good at following instructions. I can not have pets where I am so I can only do at home care. With that being said, I will ensure to follow any/ everything your fur baby needs.

About: I’ve grown up with all types of animals on my farm! I love running around with dogs and giving baths. At the age of 15 I worked at a dog boarding facility where I took care of over 10 dogs at a time. I have experience training puppies with treats, positive reinforcement, and of course, lots of love. My schedule is very flexible, leaving me with plenty of time to take your dogs on long walks. I am available Monday-Friday at any time. I live in an apartment with my husband and our son (golden retriever). We live very close to the beach and love to bring dogs there! We also live in a great neighborhood for long walks.

About: Lifetime dog lover, searching for some pups that need some daytime love and exercise. I have owned a boxer, cane corso and a sheep dog but can’t responsibly own a dog in my current work situation. Would love to meet you and make a new furry friend!
