We have used Rover services previously and it was a good experience, but we now have a very active Dalmatian and a grumpy cat and had never had a sitter in my home so we were a little nervous. Thomas made all my fears go away. He sent nightly pictures and updates regarding our pets' well being and activities. When we returned from our trip, we came home to not only a very happy spotted dog and a content grumpy cat, but also a clean house. We so appreciate the care, kindness and attention showed our pets! Definitely will book him again, in fact, in a few weeks.

I've known Carly for a very long time. Ever since I've known her, she has been kind-hearted and has had a loving affinity for all animals. She has taken care of my animals on several occasions and I would recommend her to anyone.

Dana is phenomenal! She was very responsive and friendly during the scheduling process. She went above and beyond to take care of our 3 dogs, sending multiple daily updates with photos and quickly responding and supporting any needs we had while we were away. Our dogs were so well loved they did not notice we were even gone. We would recommend Dana for all pet needs :)

Leland is compassionate towards all animals. I've witnessed his dedicated care for his own pets, and his kindness, dedication, and the joy he brings to their lives are evident. When I left my cat at his house for a week, he consistently provided daily updates, ensuring my peace of mind. Leland goes beyond the essentials; he nurtures their well-being with long, enjoyable walks and regular grooming.

About: I’ve been a pet owner my entire life, and have been pet/house sitting for family and friends for 3 years now. I’ve worked with animals big and small for training, and love to take furry friends on adventures! **unfortunately, I am unable to do overnight stays with cats due to severe allergies- I am, however, more than happy to do ‘stop by’ visits! I’m a current college student, so my weekdays are open after 12:30 most days, and my weekends are free to care for your canine companion! Your pet’s comfort is important to me, which is why I offer to stay at your home if needed! Why bother your pet with the undue stress of staying in a new place or spending hours alone? We’ll be sure to go on plenty of walks and adventures, or chill out at home if that’s more their speed, while sticking to your normal routines as best as possible!

About: I have consistently taken care of cats my whole life. My personal experience includes providing care, comfort, and companionship to my own pets as well as caring for my grand dog when his family is out of town. I currently care for my own pets on a dailly basis by providing fresh food and water in clean dishes, clean litter boxes, and individualized attention. I am open to providing whatever care is needed to suit your pet specifically. As a pet owner I understand that while there are basic needs that must be met for all pets, one size often does not fit all. I would prefer to follow direct instructions given from the owner to maintain consistency for the pet.

I am delighted to write this testimonial for Bryce, who is an exceptional and responsible pet owner. I have had the pleasure of knowing Bryce for several years, and during this time, I have witnessed their unwavering dedication and love for their furry companions. Bryce’s commitment to the well-being of their animals is truly commendable. They prioritize the health, happiness and safety of their animals above all else. What sets Bryce apart is his genuine affection and love for animals. It’s evident in the way they interact with their pets with patience, kindness, and understanding. I wholeheartedly recommend Bryce as a pet sitter to anyone looking for a compassionate and responsible caregiver for their animals. Their dedication, love and sense of responsibility make them an exemplary pet sitter, and any pet would be lucky to have them.

About: I’ve had pets my whole life and have always been an animal lover! I’ve watched pets for neighbors, friends, and family, both cats and dogs. I’m currently a college student and I do not have a job at the moment, so my availability is pretty open when I’m not in class! I’d love to walk and feed your dog and even stay and play with them to keep them company. I’d also love to take care of cats, I can feed them and keep them company as well.

About: I have always had dogs in my home since I was a baby. My parents currently have 4 dogs. The dogs in our home are always treated like family. They get a nightly walk also. We have a huge fenced in back yard along with 2 dog pens. One outside and one in our garage for rainy days. I have currently live on my own with my 2.5 year old Shiba Inu, Billy. He’s full of sass and love and keeps me on my toes! I’m currently an Esthetician in Ottawa and work Tue-Friday 10-5. And Saturday 8-12. I’m available half days saturday and full days Sun and Mon! I can be flexible thought and make almost anything work! Billy gets fed in the morning, and has free range in my fenced in yard and house during the day while we’re at work. He gets time to stretch his legs as he pleases. He gets dinner when we gets home. After that he gets his nightly walk! Any dogs taken care of at my home will have plenty of space to run around in my fenced in back yard. Any accommodations can be made. Your fur baby will be greatly cared for by me and my family!

About: I’ve had animals ever since I was born, ranging from cats, dogs, fish, hamsters, birds, turtles.. And since I was young I helped care for them! Once I hit my pre-teen years I began volunteering at animal shelters, helping with animals of all kinds! I once even held a fundraiser in middle school for a local shelter who needed help gathering supplies for their pets. I have experience with animals who need medications or have special needs! I personally have a small elderly chihuahua and assist my parents in caring for their young energetic german shepherd. I’m currently a college student focusing on my education, so I have plenty of time to assist you with all your pet care needs! I’ll be available to stay with your fur babies for as long as you need me to, with no disruptions! Since I have a pet of my own I’m unable to house-sit in my own house, but I’ll love your fur baby in their own home just how you want me to! I’ll respect any and all rules and make sure I follow instructions to a T! I won’t bring anything with me when I care for your pet that could pose as a risk to them and their health.
