“Lucy had a great time! She played and rested and played some more. Their home is lovely and the yard is safely enclosed for outdoor fun. They are very accommodating to our weird schedule. We shall return and relax knowing Lucy is well cared for!”


“We needed a last minute sitter for our senior dog Ash on a holiday weekend. Emmy was very responsive and willing to take her in. She took great care of Ash, attending to all of her needs, walking her multiple times, giving her attention, and making sure she got her medication. She was also great about sending us pictures and updates. Highly recommend Emmy for sitting or boarding!”

“Erica and her pack are amazing! Nitro had so much fun with her and the dogs. Erica was so thoughtful to send videos and photos of some of the antics that Nitro was up to with the other pups. Definitely a wonderful experience and we can’t wait for the next visit. Erica is such a kind, cool, and impressive person, and she understands dogs so well. Nitro was immediately at ease with her and had a fantastic stay! We are very grateful for all the care and kindness! Thank you Erica!”

I've been living in Fort Erie for the past two years and my husband and I are amazing dog lovers.

My fur baby lives miles away in India and this is a way for me to share my love with your pets!!

“Mary is AMAZING! Tikka is always so excited to go there and barely wants to leave sometimes! Tikka gets plenty of play time and exercise while there which is great. Mary is very accommodating as well. I 100% trust her with my pup, I wouldn’t take her anywhere else!”


“Kimberly is super kind and chill. She watched my dog even though he had a cone. She kept me posted on how he was doing and was prompt at responding. I'll definitely be using her again!”


About: I have raised two dogs (one large bread and one small bread) both from puppy to 16 & 17yrs old. I have had three cats (one still residing with me). Currently I dog sit two fur babies since 2020. In a week I am losing one of my buddies due to his parents relocating. I am already missing him and am hoping to make some new walking and cuddling partners. I work part time on weekends but can sit with advanced notice. Monday til Wednesday I am available for anytime on shorter notice. When I have your furry sweetheart I do not leave them by themselves at all,so I like to schedule when there is nothing to conflict with the time I have them. When in my house they have no restrictions from me, only what the parent wants. I have an outside bathroom area on leash for quick bathroom trips. I like to go for at least one or two long walks per day, weather permitting and your dogs abilities. I live in a walkable neighborhood and close to parks. When at your house I will follow whatever routine your partner is used to.

They spent the whole day there’s I received pictures throughout the day and she stayed in contact with updates throughout the day as well. When I went to pick them up they both seemed happy and well cared for. Very please with her service she was super friendly and welcomed my fur babies with loving open arms. I would definitely book again when needed. Thank you so much Lindsay!!”


“Our pup Avocado had a blast with Beth’s three dogs, each of whom was an excellent host. Beth was responsive and caring, and exceptionally kind and understanding when Avocado had tummy issues due to the fact that he (unbeknownst to us at the time) ate some food that disagreed with him before we dropped him off.”


“This was a last minute booking and Holly was more than eager to watch our Anakin. Holly was a delight to meet, very friendly, outgoing, and personable. She was great with Anakin and sent us updates, pictures throughout the day and had him play with her dog and asked if she could give him things before providing anything. Holly made us feel at ease and Anakin was very happy when we picked him up and even got a new toy which he has not let go. We highly recommend Holly for your pet care needs and will use her again if we’re in the area. Thank you Holly!”


“Laura was amazing with my off the wall super energetic 3 month old springer spaniel puppy!! She is a super experienced trainer and was amazing at providing a balance between structure/close monitoring for safety and a lot of fun play time for my girl. She sent a lot of updates and advice that was very helpful for our training as well! Laura went above and beyond and even gave me tons of training tips outside of the visit because my pup is very difficult and has been struggling with separation anxiety. Best value out of a Rover stay I’ve ever gotten!”


About: We’re the proud pet parents of Miss Maggie Moo, our sweet and spirited 3-year-old rescued Siberian Husky. Over the years, Jen and I have shared our lives with two other incredible dogs — Chompers, our beagle mix who was with us for 17 years, and Mia, our hound mix who truly was the heart of our home. Chompers taught us the gift of loving a dog through her senior years, while Mia showed us the deep care and attention that comes with supporting a pup with health challenges. We share this with you so you know your family member will be in kind, experienced, and loving hands. Their well-being is our priority, and we want you to feel confident and at ease knowing they’ll be cared for like one of our own. Jen works from home, so your pup will be treated like one of the family and will have her attention, 24/7. We do daily walks and have a fully fenced in back yard for play time. We have a very walk-friendly neighborhood and do morning and evening walks every day (in addition to regular potty breaks). We also have a fully fenced-in yard with a privacy fence. Maggie, our husky, is very friendly and does great with other friendly dogs. We do request for our guests to be crate-trained for sleeping at night. *No aggressive dogs, please.

About: With over 10 years of experience as a dedicated dog caregiver, I’ve had the pleasure of caring for a variety of breeds, from small Chihuahuas and Pugs to playful Beagles, energetic Aussies, and gentle Rottweilers. I offer everything from daily walks and potty breaks to teaching tricks and providing loving overnight care. My calm, patient approach allows me to build trusting relationships with every pet, ensuring they feel safe and loved while you’re away. As a true fur lover, I treat each pet like family, always giving them the attention and care they deserve. I’m currently stay at home so I will have enough time to watch your dog over the day and nights. Also available during the weekends. I have a fenced yard to let them go out on potty break whenever they need. I’m a strong person, so I ain’t afraid of taking them over walks, great relationship builder skills. I also can take them on a run if dog needs to canalize their energy.

About: I have years of experience caring for and training animals, including my own dog and cat. I understand the unique needs of both energetic, playful pets and more independent or senior animals. Whether it’s keeping up with a high-energy pup, reinforcing training, or providing gentle care for older pets, I tailor my approach to each animal’s personality and needs. My hands-on experience has given me the patience, knowledge, and intuition to ensure pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. Since I work in freelance Talor/Clothing Designer my schedule is OPEN! and I can work from anywhere. As a tailor and clothing designer, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to be available for pet care at various times throughout the day. Whether your pet needs attention in the morning, afternoon, or evening, I can adjust my availability to fit their routine and ensure they get the care and companionship they need. Overnight boarding are ACCEPTED if you need me to stay overnight and watch over your home and animals I got YOU covered. 😀 I provide attentive and personalized pet care in my clients' homes and on walks, ensuring each pet feels comfortable and well-cared for in their familiar environment. Whether it’s following their routine, providing playtime, administering medication, or giving extra affection, I tailor my care to their specific needs. On walks, I make sure pets get the right balance of exercise, exploration, and training reinforcement. I also take my own dog to the local dog park regularly, so I’m experienced in managing social interactions and creating safe, enjoyable experiences for dogs of all energy levels.

“Bailey took wonderful care of my pup today! He had such a great time, and I could tell he was immediately comfortable and at ease with Bailey. She is very gentle, and so good with animals. Also, my pup has some health and spinal issues, and I felt totally comfortable leaving him in Bailey’s care. We’ll definitely be booking with Bailey again soon — highly recommend!”


“Monica was EXCELLENT! I was terrified to try this and she communicated with me the whole time! Sent me tons of pictures and videos and showed my sweet penny so much love while her family was out of town! I will be using her for ALL of my future needs!”
