Personalized care for your dog or cat - Simcoe
Highly-rated overnight sitters - Simcoe
“Kristi is phenomenal! She took my babies in last minute. She gave them their own huge room with a ginormous cat tree. They were extremely comfortable and had no stress whatsoever. She cared for them as I would, I have no doubt they were comfortable in their home away from home. I never worried about their food or their environment. I would most certainly recommend her and use her again a million times over. Thank you for everything Kristi!!!”
“Madison was absolutely AMAZING with Harley. He was loved, well cared for and extremely happy with her and her family. Madison took great care to keep me posted on how Harley was doing. The daily pictures, videos and contact was excellent and gave me great peace while I was on a two-week trip without him. I highly recommend Madison, and she will be seeing Harley again when I am not able to take him with me. What joy to have found her!”
“Wonderful experience ! Meaghan and Johnny are very loving people with great communication. They sent me pics and videos during my pup’s stay and kept me updated without having to even ask. Definitely booking again and they will be my sitter anytime I need one ❤️”
“Donna is absolutely the best dog sitter ever! Lucy loves her, Will and her doggie family. When I take her there, I am always confident that she’s getting the best care.”
“Cody was awesome! We did a meetup before boarding where we were able to have our dogs meet and chat. Cody was great about sending pictures and updating us on how our pet was doing. Upon pickup, we could really tell how much our dog enjoyed staying with Cody. I highly recommend him and will definitely book him again.”
“Ms. Shume was great with Frank, and very considerate. My flight was cancelled on my way coming home and she assured it was no problem to keep Frank overnight as I figured my flight situation out. I was super thankful for her service, thank you again!”
“This was Oscar’s first overnight without us. He was with Kristin and her family for 2 nights. He was a bit anxious, but got better the 2nd night. Kristin took good care of him and tried to keep things as close as possible to his normal routine. We definitely recommend Kristin and will be using her again.”
“Kelsey and her family provided safe and loving home for my two cats during my travel. She sent frequent updates with pictures. Her kids are wonderful with animals. One of the pictures shows Kelsey's little daughter gently petting and kissing my cat. It is so beautiful that I'm going to frame it.”
“Juyne sent updates throughout the day with messages and pictures of my Lexi. I am new to the area and she was my first experience with letting anyone keep her. Juyne assured me I was comfortable leaving Lexi in her hands. I will definitely use her again.”

I clean houses part time but still have plenty of time to care for your pets. I can board, walk, and do drop ins and doggy day care weekdays and weekends. My schedule is flexible. My yard is not fenced in but I can take your pet outside to play on leash or without leash if they don’t run off. I can watch in your home or mine . I have 3 kids who will love your fur baby just as much as you do.
“Haley was so accommodating to our dog. She sent frequent updates with pictures and videos. It was our dogs first time getting boarded so I was a little nervous , but my anxiety went away with Haley.”
About: I’ve had dogs throughout my entire life, but currently I have a 7 year old golden retriever I treat like my child! I’ve always trained all of my dogs myself and participated in many safety training classes regarding training. I am currently in graduate school and unemployed, so mostly it’s just me and my golden at home most days, so I have plenty of spare time to help in your pet’s care!

“Mila has had many dog sitters, all of them great. Ronda stands out as a sitter, she is careful, caring and attentive. I would use Ronda whenever I could. Highly recommend her and her home!”
About: I have over 20 years of experience caring for dogs. Boarding facilities or drop-in care can’t give your spoiled baby the attention they deserve. I offer safe and loving care for your dog in my home. I am happy to accommodate a single dog at a time in my home. I work, so your dog needs to be able to be alone for up to 8 hours. Your dog will be cared for on a regular work week schedule along with my own dog in my home. I have a fenced yard and a 10 year old very calm and sweet lab/golden retriever mix. Your dog must be able to co-exist with her in order to board. I do require a meet-and-greet with your dog prior to accepting a booking. Your dog must be able to crated or left alone in the house for up to 8 hours per day without separation anxiety or destructive behavior.

Perfect for high energy dogs - Simcoe
About: I've had all kinds of pets from dogs, cats, horses, goats, to even emus! and the list goes on! I will make your pets feel loved and safe while their owners are away! My schedule is flexible! I would be available to care for your pet and or pets at various times for different days of the week. Making sure your pets feel loved and safe is my top priority. I prefer detailed instructions letting me know the best way to take care of your pets.
About: My Boarding Policies: I want every dog to feel safe, loved, and comfortable while they’re with me, so these guidelines help keep things running smoothly for everyone. 💬 Meet & Greet I always do a quick meet & greet for new clients so I can get to know your pup’s personality and make sure we’re a great fit! I will need an emergency contact and vet reference. (Last minute bookings happen, I am willing to work around this for this purpose, just reach out to me) 💉 Health & Vaccinations For everyone’s safety, all dogs should be up to date on rabies, DHPP, and Bordetella. Please also make sure your pup is free of fleas/ticks and not showing signs of illness. ⏰ Drop-Off & Pick-Up I’m flexible, but I try to keep drop-offs and pick-ups within agreed time windows so the day stays smooth and predictable for the dogs. If you’re running late, no worries — just let me know! If at any point I can not get ahold of you, this will result in me reaching out to Rover Support or possibly Animal Control (depending on the situation) 🍽️ Food, Treats & Supplies Please bring enough food for the whole stay, plus any medication with simple instructions. If anything unexpected comes up, I’ll let you know right away. 🐾 Behavior & Comfort I welcome all sorts of personalities! I just ask that pups are: Friendly with people and other dogs Able to be crated or safely separated if needed Not showing aggression If your dog has any quirks (anxiety, chewing, reactivity, etc.), please share — it helps me give them the best care. 🩺 Safety First If a true emergency happens, I’ll contact you immediately and may take your dog to the vet if needed. Owners are responsible for any vet costs. 📸 Updates I love sending photos! Expect at least one update per day — or more if you’d like. Just tell me your preference. 📅 Cancellations & Holidays I follow Rover’s cancellation policy and keep things fair, but holiday bookings may fill up fast, so early scheduling helps! I loved animals for as long as I can remember, and pets have always been a big part of my life. I’ve cared for dogs and cats of all sizes, personalities, and ages — from bouncy puppies and curious kittens to senior pets who just need a little extra love and patience. When your pet is with me, I’ll treat them like family. I enjoy long walks, playtime in the yard, and plenty of snuggles on the couch. I’m also happy to follow your pet’s routine so they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. Whether they’re energetic and playful or calm and cuddly, I’ll make sure they get the love and attention they deserve. I provide full-time dog care, including doggy daycare, boarding, drop-ins, and walks. When doing Drop ins or walks, if you are outside of a 5 mile radius, a small fee will have to be added for the distance traveled. Each day starts with morning walks and potty breaks, followed by supervised playtime and socialization. Midday is quiet time for rest and meals, with afternoon walks, and play. Evenings include dinner, potty breaks, and calm activities to help dogs wind down. Overnight, I monitor boarding dogs to ensure they’re safe and comfortable. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I provide a clean, secure, and loving environment where your furry friend can feel at home. All interactions are supervised, and I make sure playtime is safe and stress-free. I follow any specific instructions you provide for feeding, medications, or routines to ensure your pet’s well-being. I believe trust is earned, which is why I maintain open communication with owners throughout their pet’s stay or visit. You’ll receive updates, photos, and messages so you can see how your pet is doing in real-time. My home is pet-friendly, calm, and structured, offering plenty of space for exercise, rest, and fun. I strive to create a positive experience that leaves your pet happy, healthy, and eager to come back.

You’ll receive regular photo updates and quick responses while you’re away — I know how important peace of mind is when it comes to our furry family members. If your pet has special needs, training cues, or specific routines, I’m happy to follow them closely to help your pet feel at ease. Your fur baby will be treated with patience, love, and a little extra spoiling 🐾 My schedule is flexible, which allows me to offer consistent care throughout the day. I’m available for potty breaks, walks, check-ins, and overnight stays depending on what your pet needs.

While working at an animal clinic I learned how to take care of every doggy personality whether it be high reactivity, shyness, dog-aggression, or high energy. I also, of course, learned a good bit about vet med too. I’ve also taken care of many types of cats friendly and sassy ones too!

We have a completely fenced in yard with about .3 acres of area to sniff and dig. (yes, we let them dig) We love to spoil with cuddles and toys and treats.

About: Friends, family and coworkers always pick me to take care of their pets! I can train basic commands and work with all ages! I have gone to clients homes for days to care for animals, done drop by care and drop by walks. I have also boarded dogs in my own home! I want the animals to feel as comfortable as possible and also keep their parents at ease about their well being! I have my own dog so pet care is in my daily routine morning and night feedings and at least one walk a day weather permitting. We also do daily training on commands she is completely off leash trained but training is essential for her to exercise mentally. I can do either, however I have a dog myself and I would not expect anyone to ever sacrifice their own dogs attention for mine. She is so sweet and loves meeting new friends. I will stick to a clients preferred schedule for their specific dog. For us we do two feedings a day morning (7am) and night (7pm). We do at least one walk a day weather permitting and if we are unable to go outside we play fetch indoors and do brain stimulating activities.

“Kristi is phenomenal! She took my babies in last minute. She gave them their own huge room with a ginormous cat tree. They were extremely comfortable and had no stress whatsoever. She cared for them as I would, I have no doubt they were comfortable in their home away from home. I never worried about their food or their environment. I would most certainly recommend her and use her again a million times over. Thank you for everything Kristi!!!”
“Madison was absolutely AMAZING with Harley. He was loved, well cared for and extremely happy with her and her family. Madison took great care to keep me posted on how Harley was doing. The daily pictures, videos and contact was excellent and gave me great peace while I was on a two-week trip without him. I highly recommend Madison, and she will be seeing Harley again when I am not able to take him with me. What joy to have found her!”
“Wonderful experience ! Meaghan and Johnny are very loving people with great communication. They sent me pics and videos during my pup’s stay and kept me updated without having to even ask. Definitely booking again and they will be my sitter anytime I need one ❤️”
“Cody was awesome! We did a meetup before boarding where we were able to have our dogs meet and chat. Cody was great about sending pictures and updating us on how our pet was doing. Upon pickup, we could really tell how much our dog enjoyed staying with Cody. I highly recommend him and will definitely book him again.”
“Ms. Shume was great with Frank, and very considerate. My flight was cancelled on my way coming home and she assured it was no problem to keep Frank overnight as I figured my flight situation out. I was super thankful for her service, thank you again!”
“This was Oscar’s first overnight without us. He was with Kristin and her family for 2 nights. He was a bit anxious, but got better the 2nd night. Kristin took good care of him and tried to keep things as close as possible to his normal routine. We definitely recommend Kristin and will be using her again.”
“Kelsey and her family provided safe and loving home for my two cats during my travel. She sent frequent updates with pictures. Her kids are wonderful with animals. One of the pictures shows Kelsey's little daughter gently petting and kissing my cat. It is so beautiful that I'm going to frame it.”

“Haley was so accommodating to our dog. She sent frequent updates with pictures and videos. It was our dogs first time getting boarded so I was a little nervous , but my anxiety went away with Haley.”
About: I’ve had dogs throughout my entire life, but currently I have a 7 year old golden retriever I treat like my child! I’ve always trained all of my dogs myself and participated in many safety training classes regarding training. I am currently in graduate school and unemployed, so mostly it’s just me and my golden at home most days, so I have plenty of spare time to help in your pet’s care! I am open to boarding and house sitting, but also happy to do drop-ins or just walks! I have a big fenced in yard and a sweet golden who loves making new friends to keep your pup company! I have plenty of room to crate your dog if needed.
“Mila has had many dog sitters, all of them great. Ronda stands out as a sitter, she is careful, caring and attentive. I would use Ronda whenever I could. Highly recommend her and her home!”
About: I have over 20 years of experience caring for dogs. Boarding facilities or drop-in care can’t give your spoiled baby the attention they deserve. I offer safe and loving care for your dog in my home. I am happy to accommodate a single dog at a time in my home. I work, so your dog needs to be able to be alone for up to 8 hours. Your dog will be cared for on a regular work week schedule along with my own dog in my home. I have a fenced yard and a 10 year old very calm and sweet lab/golden retriever mix. Your dog must be able to co-exist with her in order to board. I do require a meet-and-greet with your dog prior to accepting a booking. Your dog must be able to crated or left alone in the house for up to 8 hours per day without separation anxiety or destructive behavior.
About: If you’re looking for someone who will love your dog like their own and bring a level of professionalism and medical awareness most sitters simply don’t have, I’m your person. As a registered nurse, I’m trained to recognize subtle changes in behavior, respond calmly in emergencies, and confidently administer medications or follow detailed care plans. I’m also a proud dog mom to two golden retrievers, so I understand firsthand the energy, affection, and attention dogs need to truly thrive—not just get by. I’ve cared for a wide range of breeds with different temperaments and needs, and I helped foster six puppies in high school, which sparked my lifelong passion for animal care. Your dog won’t just be supervised—they’ll be genuinely cared for, understood, and treated like family in a safe, loving environment you can feel completely confident about. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine because as a nurse, I only work three days a week, which gives me four full days dedicated to being home and fully present. On my days off, I have complete flexibility for walks, drop-ins, boarding, playtime, and sticking closely to your dog’s normal routine. Even on the days I do work, my schedule is predictable, allowing me to plan dependable care and maintain consistency. Nursing has made me highly organized and intentional with my time, so pet care isn’t something I squeeze in — it’s something I thoughtfully plan for. Your pet would receive focused, reliable attention from someone whose schedule truly allows for it. I tailor my care to each pet’s personality, routine, and needs, whether they’re staying in my home or I’m caring for them in theirs. In my home, pets are treated like part of the family. They receive structured playtime, regular potty breaks, enrichment activities, and plenty of affection throughout the day. I’m mindful of maintaining their normal feeding schedules, exercise routines, and any medical needs, and as a nurse, I’m comfortable administering medications and monitoring for any changes in behavior or health. Safety is always a priority, and I create a calm, supervised environment where dogs can feel secure and comfortable. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as consistent as possible to reduce stress. I follow all instructions closely, whether that includes specific feeding guidelines, medications, crate routines, or preferred walking routes. I spend quality time with them beyond the basics—playing, cuddling, and providing companionship—so they don’t just feel “checked on,” but genuinely cared for. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners can feel confident and connected while they’re away.
“Highly recommended! I received updates with pictures and videos during my dog’s stay which made me feel at ease while I was away. This is a very pet friendly environment and I’d recommend to anyone as a great place to board your pet while you’re away!”
About: I’ve had dogs most of my life, and I love meeting new ones and learning their quirks. I will treat your babies as if they were my own. I have experience pet sitting growing up as well as working 5 months full time at a kennel before going to college. My home is 1 story with a flat fenced in yard. This is perfect for young dogs through senior dogs. This is my only job, so I have lots of time to dedicate to caring for your pets! I also have a reliable vehicle which makes it easier to get to and from your home or to the vet in case of emergency. I have a single story home with a fenced in yard. We have one very sweet, friendly, senior cat. I can follow your wishes to the best of my ability. And I’m happy to discuss any questions. My pets have always been allowed on furniture and in my bed. But if you prefer them not to, I will do my best to meet your needs.
