I can come take care of your pets in your home when you are away. I am available for drop-in visits in evenings and on weekends. I will make sure your pets are very well-cared for and will love them like I love my own dog. I am happy to help with training, administering medication, bathing or anything else they may need. I will be sure to follow any house rules like not letting them on furniture etc. I am very detail-oriented and will make sure that all instructions are followed closely. Unfortunately I cannot board dogs in my own home as my dog is territorial. For new clients, use code ROBINL61342 to get $20 off your first booking :) I look forward to meeting your pets and having fun together!

Information Robin L. would like to know about your pet

Let me know about any special needs your pet has beforehand and I will make sure they are met. I also appreciate knowing what your pets like and dislike so I can make sure they are happy and we have a great time together. Don't forget to add your vet's information to your Rover profile as well :)

A typical day

I can play with your dog, give them lots of cuddles, practice obedience or tricks or take them for a walk anywhere nearby. If they like tug-of-war or want me to throw their ball for them, I can do that too!

Experienced Animal Lover

Pet care experience

Hi there! I am an animal lover who would love to help look after your pet(s) or walk your dog(s). I am a dog mom myself and have been obsessed with dogs for as long as I can remember. Growing up, my family always had dogs (and some cats) and I would help walk, feed, train and take care of them. I always dreamt of adopting a rescue dog and my dream came true 7 years ago when I adopted my dog from a shelter in Mexico! I was living in Mexico City at the time and got very involved with a local shelter where I volunteered as a dog walker, foster, adoptions assistant and social media coordinator. I quickly fell in love with one of the dogs I walked and the rest is history! My girl Pulga is a 7-year-old Mexican mutt and I love her to pieces. She has brought so much joy into my life and the lives of many others. For a dog that suffered on the streets as a puppy, she has infinite love to give. I also fostered my sister's dog Rosa (who came from the same shelter as Pulga) for 6 months before she was able to travel to Canada and I love her as my own (she is the caramel-coloured one you can see in some of my photos). Rosa also often stays with me when my sister is away for the day or weekend.

Robin has a gentle manner, which suited my shy cat. She answered messages promptly and fulfilled her pet sitting responsibilities well. We arrived home earlier than expected and found that Lilly's food and water dishes were well filled. Robin sent three pictures of Lilly, which we appreciated.

Robin did a fantastic job caring for my cat - her reliability and detailed updates/photos during the drop in visits gave me great peace of mind that my pet was in good hands & well cared for. I would absolutely use her services again and would recommend her to anyone who needs a cat sitter!

Robin was great watching my dog, making sure he was fed, exercised and taken care of while I had to leave last minute. She made sure to reach out with any questions and to keep me informed and my dog loved her!
