“Jennifer was amazing with my dog, Pablo! She cared for him like he was her own and kept me updated every day with photos and notes, which gave me so much peace of mind. Pablo was happy, well-loved, and so comfortable with her. I highly recommend Jennifer to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving sitter!”

“Sandy was wonderful and took great care of our Sofie! She sent us daily updates and pictures. We would not hesitate to ask Sandy to dog sit for us in the future.”

“Celene was fantastic! She’s easy going and flexible with the pick up and drop off. She loves dogs and took such great care of Vinnie. We received multiple updates a day with photos. Vinnie got along with Penny really well. Would recommend and use her again!”

“LaTonya was amazing! I left my energetic six month old puppy with her right in the middle of a bad teething stage and she was great! She sent multiple photos throughout the day along with frequent updates on how he was doing! My puppy had never been away from me for a night or stayed with anyone else and she was SO patient with him! Her having her own dogs is a HUGE plus since I think it was a big reason why my puppy got settled so quickly. I would recommned her to anyone!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs ever since I was a little kid. Our family always had a dog and my specialty is belly rubs and long walks I work from home and can spend as much time as possible playing with them. I give unlimited belly rubs and kisses to make them comfortable I have plenty of space to make your dog comfortable and happy with love and lots of rubs and kisses. The dogs have access to lay on the bed and furniture
“Cindy was great and my dogs seemed to love it there! We received pictures every day and they were obviously very comfortable with her since each day one of them (there are 2) was on her lap. Her regular communication was very reassuring. We will definitely book her again.”

About: I have many years of personal experience with my own pets which included several cats and fish. I now am a reptile owner. They include a beardie dragon, uromastix, a snake and several tarantulas. I have pet sat dogs(walking) and cats(check in) for neighbors and co-workers on and off as a kid and adult. Going to veterinary school and working in a vet clinic gave me additional experience and skills with animals.I enjoy being around animals and believe them to be part of the family. Reliable, trustworthy and punctual would describe me. Good communication with owners is also important. My availability is open at this time for weekdays and weekends. Don't hesitate to ask questions as I will respond. Have a good day and happy tails!! Currently I am available all seven days for pet sitting and housesitting. Feel free to message me with any questions you may have about my bookings Attending to their needs first. Potty breaks, feedings, litter cleaning or medication. Then some personal attention with pets or hugs. Then fun time with walks or toys!

About: My dogs are my babies. ❤️ If you feel the same way, we already have something important in common! I started dog walking because I know how important it is to find someone you can truly trust with your precious pups. My husband and I adopted two rescue dogs, Myrtle and Daisy, who came to us with potty and behavioral challenges after being poorly cared for in a puppy mill. With patience and love, they’ve blossomed into two silly, fun-loving dogs who are an important part of our family. I’m not a trainer, groomer, or vet tech—I’m simply a devoted pet parent who understands how much peace of mind matters when you’re leaving your “babies” with someone else. I’d love the opportunity to be a trusted friend to you and your pups! 🐾 I’m available for weekday walks starting around 3:30 PM. I enjoy getting outside and spending time with dogs, so pet care fits naturally into my routine. My own dogs also keep me familiar with the importance of consistency, attention, and lots of love! On weekends, I am available for boarding from Friday evening to Sunday evening. To ensure dog safety, we crate all dogs when humans are away. I treat every home and pet with the same care and respect I would want for my own. I follow your instructions and your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, while giving them plenty of attention, affection, and patience. I’ll also keep you updated during visits so you can relax knowing your pup is safe, happy, and well cared for.
“Nicole was absolutely great with Picasso, he came back happy and healthy! I received picture updates during his stay which was great. Would definitely book with her again.”

“This was my first time bringing my puppy Kallie, while Kai has already been here. Both of my dogs love it at Beth’s and love playing with the other dogs she watches. She’s always taking great care of my babies and sends me updates! 100% would recommend her.”

“This was our first time boarding our 5yo coonhound since she was 1yo. We had some nerves about how she would do away from us, but Angie was amazing! She cared for Grace as if she were part of her family and made sure she was comfortable with the other dogs. She kept us up to date on her status and even sent some sweet and hilarious pictures and videos. We would absolutely book time for Grace with Angie again in the future.”

About: Dogs are my favorite friends. I take care of them just like they are mine. i love giving them cuddles, kisses and yummy cold treats. Your loved ones will have the best time when they are with me. Frequent walking, playtime, and safety are my top priority when taking care of them. Of course, cuddles, food and comfy blankets/beds too! I enjoy training dogs with any kind of cool tricks. I’m currently working at home. I usually walk 3x during the day. Early morning, mid day and evening. Your furry friends will join me on my walks and have 30 mins individual play time x 2 during the day and before bed time. I have a fenced yard and a small friendly dog that will keep your dog active at all times. Water will always be filled up for them to sip on. Sunroom to keep them comfortable at all times when weather permits. When the weather gets too hot/cold, your furry bestie are going to warm up/cool off/play/rest in the basement. they are free to roam inside the house.

“June took such great care of my highly active dog Zozo. She did an awesome job learning Zozo's needs and adapting to make her stay care free. I will definitely use June again and highly recommend her for other people in need of some dog or cat house sitting.”

About: Hi! I’m Krystal, and I’ve been caring for pets for over 13 years. I provide dependable dog walks, drop-in visits, and in-home pet care for dogs, cats, seniors, and multi-pet households. Whether your dog needs a midday walk while you’re at work, your puppy needs a potty break and some playtime, or your pets simply do better with a consistent routine, I’m happy to help. Visits can include walks, potty breaks, meals, fresh water, medication, playtime, enrichment, and plenty of attention based on your pet’s normal routine. I also have experience caring for senior pets and pets requiring medication or a little extra patience and support. After caring for my own senior dogs, I understand how reassuring it is to have someone dependable who will take the time to get to know your pet and their individual needs. I’m available for both occasional and recurring weekday walks and drop-ins and love building long-term relationships with pets and their families. My goal is for you to feel confident that your pets are safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. Pet care is my full-time focus, and I structure my days around the pets in my care. My daytime schedule typically includes walks, drop-in visits, errands, appointments, and other everyday commitments. For boarding and house sitting, I spend plenty of time with your pet throughout the day while balancing my scheduled visits and commitments. Because of this, pets should be comfortable spending some time independently while I’m out. I also offer complimentary meet & greets so we can connect, review your pet’s routine, and make sure we’re a great fit before their stay! Whether I’m caring for your pet in my home or yours, I do my best to maintain their normal routine so they feel safe, comfortable, and settled while you’re away. For boarding, I provide a comfortable home environment and follow your dog’s feeding, potty, walking, and sleeping routines as closely as possible. Favorite toys, treats, and comfort items are always welcome! In your home, I follow all care instructions closely, including feeding, walks, litter care, medications, playtime, and household preferences. I’m also happy to reinforce any training or routines you’re currently working on.
About: I’ve cared for dogs for several years, including my own pets as well as dogs for family and friends. My experience includes daily walks, feeding, playtime, giving medications when needed, and making sure pets feel comfortable while their owners are away. I’m comfortable with dogs of different sizes, ages, including energetic puppies and older dogs who need a slower pace. I pay close attention to each dog’s routine and personality so they feel safe and cared for. I understand the importance of consistency, exercise, and affection, and I’m committed to providing reliable care while keeping pet owners updated along the way. Pet care fits easily into my daily summer routine because I enjoy being active and spending time with animals. I’m able to plan my schedule around walks, drop-ins, and making sure pets get the attention and care they need. I’m reliable with routines like feeding, potty breaks, exercise, and check-ins, and I make sure each pet gets the time and care they’re used to. In my client’s home, I follow the pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding, walks, potty breaks, playtime, and any special instructions. I make sure pets feel comfortable in their familiar environment and give them plenty of attention while their owner is away. I also send updates and photos so owners know their pet is doing well. If caring for pets in my home, I provide a safe, clean space with plenty of supervision, regular potty breaks, exercise by going on walks or playing in our large gulley fenced in yard. I make sure pets feel comfortable and cared for, just like they would at home.
About: Hello fellow fur parents! I'm Caitlin, I am a fur mama myself, not to just those I own, but to everyone else's pets but to also the strays. I know how it feels to have to leave your furbabies in someone else's care, especially to someone you never even met. It's worrisome and not a go-to situation. But I can put your mind at ease. I promise, your pet will be cared for and treated as if it were my own child too. I love all animals, no discrimination of species, breed, age, health problems, nothing. Caring for animals is what I love and do best. I love being able to give others the sense of relief knowing they left their animals in good hands and can enjoy their time away without having to worry. And to make you feel extra comfortable, I send videos and pictures along with detailed updates every couple of hours. So go on and take that weekend get-away, family vacation, road trip & know you left your babies with someone reliable and trustworthy. I have years of experience including professional. I also caretake in livestock with extra charge. With my current schedule, I am available in the late afternoons, evenings and nights, including overnight stays. I will only be away for the mornings until the late afternoon for work. Your furbaby will then have their entire afternoon to play outside to their hearts content, get some dinner, then enjoy their evening/nights getting all the lovins and relaxion until it's time to sleep. I have a dog of my own along with 2 cats. Your dog will have to be cat friendly to stay. No exceptions. I have large yard with plenty of space to run. It is not fenced but it is far from the road and any dangers. They will be attended to at all times, so they will always be safe.
“Fantastic service! Very accommodating to my travel schedule with pick-up & drop-off. Great communication in very timely way including daily updates. Very knowledgeable of dogs, and how she introduced my dog to her two. Even allowed me to meet her pups. I’m in process of booking again, and very grateful for Lisa and her thorough care of Winston!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Ottawa
Lily and Jeremy were wonderful with Theo! This was my first time leaving him with sitters, and I was nervous about how he would get along with their dogs. Jeremy made sure they had a careful introduction and sent lots of pictures, which really put me at ease. I loved seeing Theo playing with their dog, Boov! They always responded promptly whenever I checked in. I’m so grateful for the care they gave Theo and would happily book with them again!!

My dogs are both old dogs! My baby has never been anywhere other than with me...since he was born. She calmed me down, sent pics. I was very nervous, worrying about every outcome. Those are my KIDS!!! She took care of my kids. Thank you, Ashley. I was a ball of nerves. She made my dogs smile.
