Pet Sitting Oakville

“Cyndi is wonderful with our dog, Sherman and loved on our kitties as well. She was great at communicating, sending pictures and keeping us updated on how he was doing while we were away. We highly recommend Cyndi and will continue to book with her as long as we can. Thank you again, Cyndi!”

About: I’ve been caring for cats for many years and have experience pet sitting for both cats and dogs for friends and family. While my background is stronger with cats, I’m comfortable handling the day-to-day needs of dogs as well, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and maintaining routines. I know how important consistency is for pets, especially when their owners are away, so I make it a priority to carefully follow any instructions regarding feeding, medications, dietary restrictions, routines, or other special care needs. Because I work remotely, I’m also able to spend much more time at home with pets than many sitters can, which means more company, attention, and supervision throughout the day. I currently work remotely on a typical Monday–Friday daytime schedule and am able to work from anywhere within the state, which means I can comfortably set up my work-from-home station while house and pet sitting. This allows me to be much more present and attentive throughout the day compared to sitters who may be away for long periods of time. My work is also fairly flexible, allowing me to adjust meetings and tasks as needed to help accommodate feeding schedules, walks, potty breaks, medications, and other routine care. Weekends are typically very open for me as well, giving me even more flexibility and availability for your pets’ needs. I currently have two cats of my own: Draco, an 11-year-old part Manx, and Loki, a 6-year-old black American Shorthair. I’ve had both of them since they were kittens, and caring for them has given me years of hands-on experience with maintaining routines, monitoring health, and creating a calm, safe environment for pets. Draco previously needed some extra attention with his weight and diet, and through a consistent feeding routine and focused care, he was able to lose over 10 pounds and maintain a much healthier lifestyle. That experience reinforced for me how important consistency, patience, and closely following care instructions can be for pets. Loki is a rescue and can be a little shy at first, so I also understand the importance of giving pets time to adjust, respecting their comfort levels, and helping anxious pets feel safe and secure. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I aim to maintain their normal routines as closely as possible so they feel comfortable, relaxed, and well cared for while their owners are away.

“Rachel helped us out with Maybel as she was adjusting to a new routine with our work schedules. Rachel is a repeat sitter with us! Great communication and Maybel is always well taken care of!”

“So very grateful for Alex committed to care for our silly girl last minute. Saved us a lot of stress for our trip. It seems like Alex and Poppy got along great!”

Allison R.

“Natalie is awesome and a great person to watch our girls! You can tell she really cares. We hope she’ll watch our pups regularly!”

“Bethany is great! Donut (the pup) loves her. She sends pics and updates of their time together.”

“Tara is wonderful and goes above and beyond to make sure our Roxy is happy while we're gone. She's fantastic and makes us feel so much better about being out of town. She always seems tons of pictures and updates. Can't recommend her enough.”

About: I have experience in walking dogs, and house sitting. I have stayed with cats as well. I used to be a doggy daycare attendant! My responsibilities included: feeding animals on a regular schedule, walking them on a schedule, giving them medication, and giving them play time and attention. As an animal lover I know that pets need more than just food and water. They need love and affection too! Count on me to give it my all to your pets. :) I am currently employed part time, and am looking to make extra cash and to connect with pets since I don’t have any of my own. (Yet!) I would have to have an early heads up of when you’d need me, because I get my work schedule weekly. I apologize, but I am unable to provide at home services. I will do all that is necessary to love and take care of your pet.

“Evelyn went above and beyond when she watched my cats. From having to deal with my senior cat and her issues to taking care of a cat that she never saw, she even tried to engage her to come out of hiding. She always made sure they had what they needed. I couldn't have asked for better experience. For sure will have her back when I travel.”

Amber F.

“Nicki was absolutely wonderful and kept great communication throughout every check-in. She truly went above and beyond, and I’ll definitely be booking with her again!”

Victoria L.

“Hayle was gracious enough to take my almost last minute 3 day booking when my friend (who usually checks in on my boy) wound up having to go out of town for the second half of my trip. We had enough time for a quick meet n greet and got things squared away before I left. I feel like I didn't give enough info about my boy and probably forgot things for her when she came here. In spite of that, she did a fantastic job and my boy was taken care of while I was gone. Thanks so much!”

Melissa P.

“Melanie did an wonderful job keeping in contact and updating me with how my cat is doing! She also took great care of my kitty and interacted with her on each visit to make her feel loved in my absence.”

About: I’ve had dogs and cats around me pretty much my entire life, and I’ve always believed they’re part of the family. In our house, Pepper and Lily pretty much run the show! 😊 Pepper is our 8-year-old Maltipoo, and Lily is our 6-year-old American Shorthair cat. They keep us entertained, keep us on schedule, and remind us who is really in charge. I’m retired, which gives me something many pet sitters don’t have as much of — time. I enjoy being around animals and would much rather spend my day with a dog or cat than rush in and out between a dozen other commitments. Over the years, I’ve cared for the pets of friends, relatives, and neighbors. I haven’t done it professionally, but I’ve been a pet owner and animal lover all my life, and I understand how much trust is involved when you leave someone with your pets. A little about how I care for pets Every pet is different. Some want a long walk and lots of play; others are perfectly happy curling up beside you. I’m happy to follow their routine and your instructions — whether that means walks, meals at a particular time, medications, special attention, or caring for an older pet. I offer dog walking, drop-in visits, house sitting, and overnight care in your home. My preference is house sitting because I think most pets are happiest in their own surroundings, with their familiar beds, toys, smells, and routines. I don’t offer boarding at my home because Lily has made it clear that she does not appreciate houseguests of the canine variety! 😄 Your home matters to me, too. This is something I feel strongly about because I’ve used Rover myself. We’ve had Rover sitters care for our pets and stay in our home, so I know what it’s like to hand your keys—and your furry family members—to someone you don’t know. I will treat your home the way I want someone to treat mine: with respect, care, cleanliness, and common sense. I’ll follow your instructions, keep things tidy, and make sure your home is secure while you’re away. Most importantly, I want you to be able to enjoy your trip or time away without worrying about what’s happening at home. I’m not looking to simply “check in” on your pets. I enjoy their company. I’ll talk to them, play with them, take them for walks, give them attention, and let them keep me company. If your pets are happy, I’m happy. That’s really what this is about. ❤️🐾 I’d love to meet you and your pets, learn their routines, and see if we’re a good fit. I’m retired and have a very flexible schedule, including evenings and overnight stays. I enjoy being with pets and can give them plenty of time and attention. I treat your home with the same respect I expect for mine. We’ve used Rover sitters ourselves, so I understand the trust involved. I’ll follow your instructions, keep your home secure and tidy, and give your pets attentive, dependable care.

“Asa was wonderful. Trustworthy, spent quality time with our puppy Violet. When I got home she looked better than when I left and is better behaved. I can't say enough great things about Asa. I never needed to worry because the updates and pictures told the story.”

“Katy did an amazing job with our boys and they were so happy. Seemless communication from the initial consultation visit thru the scheduled care visits. We definitely recommend Katy and will be utilizing her services going forward.”

Jonathan P.

“Allison gets 10 stars out of 5!! This was our first time using Rover and we couldn't be happier with Allison and the job she did with our 7 year old dog. She stopped by on two separate occasions prior to our trip to get acquainted with our dog. She was super diligent and on time for every visit. She communicated very well and provided ample updates and pictures. We’re lucky to have found her and will use her again.”

About: I’ve been around dogs since I was a kid. Recently I have started dog sitting for family friends and decided to join on here to offer my services. I’m currently working full time from 7am-3:30pm in office 5 days a week M-F. Within my work hours, I’m not available to do visits. Outside of these hours, any dog I care for will have my undivided time and attention. I take care of the pet I’m watching over by taking them on walks, play with them, and making sure they are well fed. I like to make sure they are well accounted for and treat them as my own.

About: I am a huge animal person and love to take care and play with your pets of any kind! I have been cat sitting and dog walking for years for family and neighbors, and have always been there for even a short pop-in visit. Working in my local animal shelter I specialized in both feline and canine care, and know everything about keeping your pet happy and healthy. I have two cats of my own that I treat like my babies and grew up with dogs all my life, and I hope I can treat your pets as good as my own! I am currently working part time with a varying schedule, but will typically have the same days off every week which will allow me to have a more consistent schedule when caring for your pet. I will always approach a new dog or cat with caution and assess their behavior before jumping right in, not only for my well-being but also theirs to avoid any extra stress.

“Misty is reliable, kind, attentive, and quite frankly, an animal whisperer when it comes to taking pics of my German girls (that says enough alone about how hard it is to get their pic). When Misty cares for my girls, it's like I know they're going to get pampered while I'm away. She brushes them, walks them and of course loves on them and gives them their favorite treats. She gives both of them their meds daily and doesn't mind that our dogs eat three different foods at a meal. She has even worked me into her schedule while she has had other check ins to do. I can't recommend her enough!!! We are so appreciative of you, Misty, thank you ♥️”

“Jayne has been just amazing! She provided drop in service for our cat Bernice for a week and I could not imagine ever getting any better care. She came on a regular schedule every day, took care of all her needs and spent time playing with her. I received pictures and a Rover report after every visit. She even bought her new toys! Bernice and I were extremely happy with Jayne and would highly recommend her.”
