“Melanie was fantastic! Our pets were spoiled rotten and were very much at ease with her. I'm not sure if they missed us at all! She stayed at our house for a week while we were away on vacation. Not only were the pets were well looked after, the house was spotless. I highly recommend Melanie, we will be booking exclusively with her going forward. Her rates are very reasonable. Extremely good value. Don't hesitate booking her, you'll be glad you did. We were able to enjoy our vacation without a single worry about home and the pets.”


“Jennifer and Alex were very attentive to Harley and Oscar while I was away. They updated me regularly with pictures and texts reassuring me that both were fine. I would highly recommend them to anyone and I certainly plan to hire them again through Rover.”


“Josephine stayed at my house while I was away for a 7 day trip. The dogs were relaxed and comfortable when I returned which shows how happy they were while in her care. I highly recommend her and will definitely be booking with her again in the future!”



“Jason went above and beyond to take good care of our home and 14 week old English Setter Puppy. Just after committing to a puppy, we had the opportunity to visit France with our daughter, and visit our granddaughter. We really wanted to go, but only if we could find someone super reliable to take great care of a puppy and continue the training we started. Jason came to meet us before we booked him and put our minds at rest. He sent us daily updates during our week in France so we were able to relax and enjoy a wonderful trip. Should you need a pet sitter, and Jason can do it, do not hesitate!”


“Crystal was amazing! My dogs took to her right away. She kept to their schedules and sent me pictures to show me how they were doing. I felt safe and confident leaving my doggies with her :)”


About: For future reference; will not be accepting non neutered or spayed cats/dogs unless accompanied by a crate, especially if their not trained please. I do have one myself, so not that you need to have one per se but allow use if necessary! This is partially for Henrys experience too, so please keep that in mind when reading this; its not to be snarky. I have trained two dogs growing up who have above average listening and response times. Positive reinforcement was key to my success, psychology paid off. One was a rescue dog; she was such a sweet heart but it took some time getting her to open up based off her traumatic experiences prior to entering the adoption location she luckily found her way too. Henry on the other hand, was purchased from a breeder, so fortunately for him less baggage, and unfortunately for her given the circumstances. I've done dog sitting/pet care for family dogs when family members would go on vacation for anywhere from 6 to 8 weeks. Medication administration is a non issue, as well as grooming is another area I take great pride in doing myself, as it's a good trait to have being a pet owner. Have cared for puppies, adult or senior dogs; we were a dog first family growing up so I've grown to love them more than you can realize just through descriptions; with my active daily lifestyle it allows for the animals to gain as much out of exercise as I do and working from home helps as well. I treat animals as if their my family or children, so they'd receive the same treatment one would expect from a friend baby sitting their children. Seamlessly; he wakes up when I do and is let out accordingly at 4 AM we go for multiple walks a day most notably 430 AM and 530 PM. I work from home so it makes it very manageable to get him outside for bathroom breaks within 2-2.5 hour interval periods. I'd like to think we both operate at a high level through one another. We feed off one another, so when he's upbeat I am too, but when I'm down he has his tricks that ensure a great therapeutic touch. I treat them as if their my children; I speak to them in a way they understand with words or phrases we've practiced or has practiced to ensure optimal success in regards to understanding one another. Henry and I like to play often with his toys or just horsing around with Belly rubs and chasing him around the house. He sleeps with me too, so no furniture is off limits as I usually have blankets or other covers in place to manage hair loss.

“Kayla did a great job taking care of Caesar and provided regular updates and photos. She left the apartment very clean and tidy. Will definitely be my first choice the next time I need a sitter!”


“Katlynn was so great with our dogs. We added a puppy to our family last minute and she embraced it head on! Our dogs loved her and even watched her leave. I would trust her with my dogs any day of the week! She should be your go-to-gal for this area!”

“Julia did such an awesome job looking after our pets! We could really relax and enjoy our weekend away, knowing they were in good hands. We’ll definitely be booking with her again, thank you!!”


About: I love dogs! I have experience taking care of big and small, well and not so well behaved dogs : ). I have a private property for ball throwing and running around. I work at home so I have the time to care for your dog. My main reason to do this is because I love pets but I am not ready for my own again just yet. I work from home full time! I would be able to give your dog walks before work, lunch, and after work. I’m open to special needs. I have 10 acres. It’s not fenced but has a treed border. I would have your pet at my home. I don’t have any other pets or children in the home.

“Dekoda was very kind and pleasant to work with. She went above and beyond spending time with our animals. Our vacation was much more enjoyable knowing they were well taken care of. Will definitely be booking with her again.”


About: I am a super active person! I love to go to the near by park but will do anything to accommodate your dogs’ needs. I have had my own dogs my whole life, including rescues that had a lot of behavioural issues. I know how to deal with a dog of any type no matter how easy or difficult they may be in the most loving manner. I work shift work that consists of 4 days working in a row and then 4 days off in a row. I have two cats at home that I love so much. They typically mind their own business when dogs are around! I am very much for open communication between us on anything and am looking to develop awesome relationships with you and your fur babies! I work full time, 4 days in a row and then have 4 days off in a row! I like to spend my spare time with my own pets, taking care of others’, being active, playing sports etc! My place is clean, tidy, and safe for all pets! I am very attentive to their needs and behaviours. | | | | | |

About: My name is Emma , I’m 32 years old and a recent graduate of police foundations here in Brockville at St Lawrence College. I love the outdoors and spending time with my 3 dogs, my chickens & ducks. I’m an animal lover and have some extra time now and would love to walk/take care of your pets! Please contact me if you’re looking for dog walking or dog sitting. I have 5 years experience walking dogs and pet sitting. I have 3 dogs myself, 2 boston terriers (Dexter & Larry) and our newest addition: a whippet named Louie. They are all very sweet and good with other dogs. Please feel free to contact me anytime if you are interested in my services! I currently have 3 steady clients but am always looking to expand, I keep myself available almost every day of the week so if you are in need of a last minute walk or sit I will most likely be available/ I can be pretty flexible to accommodate. I’m also doing house cleaning & looking to get some new clients there so if you happen to be in need of a cleaner or know someone that is please let me know! I have over 10 years experience cleaning & consider myself a very thorough cleaner. I can clean/pet sit if that interests anyone as well. 😊 I currently am working as an instacart shopper & a housekeeper, but do dog walkings midday and can work around my instacart/cleaning schedule to include more dog walkings/visits. I am currently not offering boarding for dogs as I think it would be too much, already having 3 dogs myself. I am willing to do at home visits for anyone who is interested!
