“Natalia was incredibly attentive with my dog. I have zero complaints and would book again. Thank you so much, Natalia! Arthur came back very happy and tired.”


“Pallavi was very welcoming and kept us updated at all times with mylo. The report card sent afterwards was the cherry on top! Will definitely be rebooking!”


“Lasya was incredible with my guy Rocky! He loved hanging out with her two pups and came home happy and tired from a busy day! He had such a great time and was looking back with longing when we picked him up! Rocky is looking forward to see them again :)”


“We are from Ohio, and recently had Lizbeth watch our dog, Oreo, for about 4 hours. We couldn’t be happier with the experience. Oreo had such a great time—not only was he well cared for, but he also got to play with another dog. One great thing about Lizabeth is that she knows how to make dog feel comfortable. We highly recommend her and will book again if we are in that area.”


“Momo got right along with Shivadarshini and her pups. Very satisfied and will be returning for a longer stay in the future. This was the first time Momo was staying without us and Shivadarshini did a great job provide constant updates.”


“Great sitter, quick communications, sent pictures, accommodated late pick up, pup is pooped and napping, grey job, highly recommended.”


About: I’m currently a student and working from from home and love dogs to my core. I have a 5 year old toy poodle named Mason. He’s so sweet & playful and he’s always looking for another puppy to play with. I have had experience with dogs my entire life, but in college I decided to get one of my own and I have no regrets yet! I will make sure your pet receives endless love and affection, long walks, loads of fun and trips to the dog park to mix and mingle. Safety of your pet is my priority so there’s no need to worry while they’re under my watch. I understand how stressful it can be to find someone you trust with your baby, so I will be sure to keep you updated throughout our day. I enjoy taking photos of my dog and nature so expect pictures updates as well. I am super flexible so for whatever you need, don’t hesitate to ask! I can’t wait to meet you and your pet! I’m available for daily walks, drop in visits and boarding. I work from home so I have the time and flexibility to care for your pet and give them the attention they need throughout the day. I am very respectful of your space and your dog and their’s. Making sure only do what I am advised to and anything outside of that I’d check with the owner prior.

About: Hi, I’m Megan — a lifelong animal lover and dedicated pet care provider based in beautiful East English Village. I live with my two friendly, well-socialized dogs who enjoy the company of other calm, respectful pups. I provide a personalized, low-volume boarding experience from my home, where your dog becomes part of our little pack. My services are designed with your pet’s comfort and safety in mind. I only board one guest dog at a time, ensuring constant supervision, individual attention, and a peaceful, low-stress environment. Whether you’re looking for drop-in visits, a walk while you’re at work, or overnight care, I treat every animal like one of my own — with affection, patience, and professional care. I provide updates with every visit, and I’m happy to accommodate custom routines, feeding schedules, and medication administration when needed. Let’s schedule a free meet-and-greet to make sure it’s a great match! Caring for animals is a natural part of my daily life — I structure my routine around it. With two dogs of my own, I’m already up early for walks, feeding, and snuggles. I work from home, which allows me the flexibility to provide frequent potty breaks, plenty of supervision, and lots of one-on-one attention throughout the day. Because I intentionally limit my boarding and walking services to just a few clients at a time, I’m able to give each pet my full focus without being overbooked or rushed. Whether I’m doing a drop-in visit, hosting a pup overnight, or stopping by for a midday walk, I plan my calendar so your pet gets reliable, unrushed, high-quality care. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities — whether they’re staying in my home or I’m visiting them in yours. BOARDING AT MY HOME: When boarding in my home, I provide a calm, structured, and low-stress environment by only accepting one guest dog at a time. This allows me to give each pet plenty of individual attention and supervision throughout the day. I have two friendly, well-socialized resident dogs who are used to having guests and do best with other well-mannered pups. I take time to carefully introduce everyone, and I require a meet-and-greet prior to first-time bookings to ensure everyone is a good fit. My home is pet-safe, clean, and set up with cozy resting areas, a large and securely fenced outdoor space, and plenty of enrichment opportunities like walks, playtime, and snuggles. I also follow the pet’s routine as closely as possible to make their stay feel familiar and reassuring. FOR DROP INS I aim to maintain your pet’s routine in their own environment, minimizing disruption and providing consistent care. I refresh water, follow feeding and medication instructions closely, and always leave your home secure and tidy. I also provide visit updates with photos so you can feel connected and at ease while you’re away. Building trust through consistent, compassionate care is what I do best. Whether your pet is staying with me or I’m visiting them, they’ll be treated like family.

“Karen was a great help with Luna when I unexpectedly had to leave the dog home alone for a VERY long day. She came over to give her cuddle and pee breaks and a trip to Barkside, Luna’s home away from home. 💕 Even went the extra mile to clean up a little dog mess. Thanks!!!!!”



“Misty is the best!”


About: I have been a Registered Veterinary Technician for 12 years. I am competent and confident with a variety of pets, as well as different stages of life and health statuses. I am willing and able to administer prescribed medication to pets if requested. I am organized and reliable. You can expect me to bring a passion for care and professionalism into all aspects of my time with your pet. I have a very flexible timetable in order to help facilitate ease of scheduling. I am available primarily weekdays, but will have weekends available during the summer months. My preference is to keep your pet in their own home in order to ease any stress or anxiety that transitioning to a strange home may cause.

“I only left my puppy Sasha with Seyhan for a handful of hours, but the experience was nothing but positive! Seyhan and her husband seemed very warm and patient from what I could tell, and Sasha gave them a very happy, warm goodbye. I also loved the couple of photos I received from her, and the confirmation that she fed her her dinner. Besides that, I appreciated the honesty when she told me that she hadn't eaten very much of it (perhaps just a puppy distracted or a little nervous in her new environment).”


About: hello! Cannot wait to meet your furry friends! I’ve been around dogs my whole life and absolutely adore them. I have a dog myself, her names Mable and she’s a golden retriever! I have a big back yard that’s fully fenced in for your dog to run around wild in and be safe. I’m quite active so your dog will also be getting walked alongside my own dog. Looking forward to meeting your dogs :) I won’t be working in the summer, so this will be my full time job! (I am a teacher and off in the summers) ! I have a house that is fully fenced and gated. My husband and I will provide great care to your fur baby and go above and beyond so your dogs are comfortable!

About: I love animals! I’m a professional, working part-time and from home! I enjoy exercising and like to make it fun with my pup! I have a Bernedoodle puppy who loves playing with other dogs! I My siblings and I had many animals growing up from rabbits to horses to dogs—we had 8 at one time, with a cat! I like to think of us as the Doolittle’s :)! I’m ready and excited to provide pawsome, loving and attentive care to your animal baby! I’m currently working part-time and have a flexible work schedule; your pup will be priority. I am attentive and able to put your animals needs first. Fully fenced backyard and i will take your pup for walks in the neighborhood if that is preferred over play and bathroom use in the backyard.


“Chauna did an excellent job watching my 13 week old puppy all day! She kept me updated throughout the day with pictures and reports of what he was up to. She was also very responsive if I had any questions. I would definitely recommend!”


About: I have two of the friendliest dogs who enjoy having friends over & spending the night. Comfortable caring for special needs animals & will go above and beyond to make sure your pet is cared for well while your gone. Lots of play and interaction as I work from home. I work from home - the dogs really dictate my days most of the time :) Dogs have full access to the home including beds & furniture. We incorporate lots of play! I have a fenced in yard and live bear multiple parks. We take daily walks & ensure the pets get a ton of outside play.

About: I currently work in an animal physical therapy center where I treat special needs dogs and cats. Throughout my life span, I have owned 15 pets: 5 lizards, 8 fish, a hedgehog, a cat, 6 dogs, a scorpion, and a guinea pig. I studied animal science with a concentration in animal biology at MSU, following the pre-vet track. I’ve yet to meet an animal that I don’t get along with- it’s like we just click. I’m a very caring person that loves pets! If I could, I’d be a zookeeper. A lot of things I know about pet care I have learned in a Companion Animal Biology and Management class, from stress to diseases to development, etc. There couldn’t be a more perfect friend to watch your pal! Hope to meet you soon (: ! I am a full-time Rover sitter. Aside from Rover, I am a vet assistant at an animal PT rehabilitation center. To my best ability, I will give your pet my undivided attention. I’m rarely too busy to leave them unattended. I always ask clients for feeding and potty schedules and adhere to their pets’ needs. Safety is top priority, and your pet is in good hands. Upon request with unfenced yards, leash walking available.

“Yuri always loved coming over for daycare with Meaghan”


“Tara was the best! She provided tons of updates throughout the day and kept my hyper pup very tired with walks and rounds of hide & seek, which is his favourite! Along with updates, I got tons of photos which is something I’m always looking forward to.”

MEGAN B.
“Megan is an exceptional pet sitter! She has such a genuine love for animals and is such a natural at interacting with them. She was communicative the entire time and sent me lots of cute photos too! I have never felt more comfortable leaving my boys (cats) than I do with Megan. I know she has two dogs of her own and her level of care for them is impressive and inspiring. Highly recommend!”

Ashlyn C.
“Ashlyn is a very dependable person. Any time I’ve needed help from someone with a lot of patience, Ashlyn is the one I go to. She is very caring as she has experience with several pets (dogs, bunnies, fish) and has childhood education experience, which means she will be an ideal candidate to care for animals that require lots of time and attention. She is attentive and very observant which is ideal when caring for a dog. She is energetic and willing to play and take dogs for long walks!”
