“I can't recommend Karen enough as a dog sitter! She has taken exceptional care of my dog, Django, and I always feel at ease knowing he's in her hands. From the moment I met her, it was clear that she has a genuine love for animals. Karen goes above and beyond, ensuring that Django gets plenty of playtime, exercise, and affection.

“I can't say enough wonderful things about Ana! She took excellent care of our Bella. This was our first time using a dog sitter and we couldn't have asked for a better caregiver. Ana gave daily updates that included pictures and videos. She also took Bella on walks and provided lots of cuddle time. She treated her like family and we appreciated that!”

“Albina was very sweet and patient with our little baby. He is a handful with lots of energy. She sent lots of pictures and played with him. She was very patient as it was his first time being away from home and he cried a lot at night. Albina tried to comfort him by sleeping on the couch with our pup and even taking him to her bed. She even went the extra mile to make sure he eventually got some sleep when we took him home. 10/10”

“Katherine is amazing! We have a very shy cat who typically hides from people and Katherine won him over right away! She took great care with our cats and was excellent at communicating with us. We never had to worry at all! We will definitely hire her again and can't recommend her services highly enough.”
“We booked Michelle and Christy last minute because our usual sitter was unavailable. They were great with our cats and provided pics,videos, and notes while we were away. We would use them again if our usual sitter happens to be unavailable again.”
“Cheryl is very personable, friendly and amazing with cat. She took great care of my 15 y/o senior kitty who required daily medications. My cat feels very comfortable around her. Grateful to have found her. Highly recommended!”

I understand that cats are creatures of habit who thrive on routine, and I treat every client’s feline family member with the same patience and respect I give my own.
“We had left our 2 cats under Kelly’s care when we went on our trip. One of them is under medication. Kelly was very regular in sending us the pics and the daily updates. It’s always nice to have the feeling that someone is there to take care of our pets with the same care we give. Kelly has been great. Even my timid cat went and mingled with her ... which is a big deal!!”
“Roisin did daily drop-ins for my two cats for 3 days. She sent me multiple updates after each visit and sent several great photos. Even when one cat was hiding each time - she found her! This was my first time leaving them this long - they’re rescues so I was really nervous, but I felt so much better knowing they were in Roisin’s care, especially with all the pics/updates. She’s very trustworthy and followed their feeding schedule perfectly. I will absolutely be rebooking with Roisin. Thank you!”

About: We treat all breeds with love! Friends and family know we will take care of their dogs as our own and have always relied on us to care for them. My husband and I love dogs, so we have opened our home for boarding and daycare of all breeds under 100lbs. I have raised puppies until they were seniors, so I have experience with every age. I have given dogs oral, eye, and ear medications before. Working part time has allowed me the time to be home all day with the dogs. My husband comes home for the night and takes care for them while I go to work. We have a 6ft fenced yard and three friendly dogs to keep your fur baby company. All dogs are crated for the night and when we are not home for their safety. We only allow dogs free roam when we are home. We also supervise all play time outside and always watch everyone inside.

“Karen and Tom were great with my girl Xo. Their big yard is perfect for Xo and her excess energy! They kept me updated and sent photos and videos of Xo. I was very pleased with Xo’s overall stay. Xo normally doesn’t eat when staying in a new environment. However, Karen was able to get Xo to eat comfortably. Xo enjoyed her stay, she came back an happy girl. I feel very comfortable leaving Xo with Karen and Tom and would definitely recommend them!”
“Rose met some new friends today. I think Rose is adapting on being away from home for the day. Sylvie always makes sure Rose gets pets, hugs and belly rubs. She must of had a busy day today sniffing everything. When I got home Rose ate her dinner and went to take a nap!”
“Estefania was wonderful with Apple! This is the first time I used Rover.com and I am a 1000% satisfied client. Even though it was just a day care while I worked extended hours and needed to get some house cleaning done, I got lots of pics and videos, and Apple was very happy in the pics. Apple is a senior pup with partial blindness and diabetic(<2 years) so I wasn't sure how she would respond to a new environment. This is the first time I sent Apple to day camp in 4 years due to the pandemic and her health ailments, but as soon as I pulled into the driveway and saw the baby gate on the front porch to provide extra security, I felt very comfortable. Apple can have separation anxiety from Mom (me) at times so I knew she couldn't get past the front porch if she tried to run out. Estefania welcomed us into her home, and it's an extremely clean and safe residence for pups. Apple had so much fun! She worked up a good appetite and ate a full meal once she came back home. Because she's diabetic, she has a set feeding schedule to accommodate her insulin shots. I woke up for work this morning and heard Apple snoring and she had "Bed Head" hair. It was a great day camp visit and we're looking forward to coming back!! Thanks so much for taking care of Ms. Apple for the day :)”
About: Hi! I’m Nicole, and I work remotely as a graphic designer while pet-sitting! I’d love to hang out with your baby or take them on walks or just keep them company! The details: I’m currently open for a recurring lunch time walk/drop-in spot! I do have meetings throughout the day and work full-time, so it’s u likely I can accommodate any other weekday times. Weeknights and weekends are open though! I am open to sitting for all types of animals! I love to be outdoors, so walking and playing with your pet will be a treat for both me and them. I’m also cool with a little snuggle bug watching tv on the couch! I’ve walked and spent time with dogs of all shapes and sizes through volunteer work at a shelter in SK. You can count on me to love your pet as my own while I’m with them. I have no problem giving medication or any other special needs your dog might have. - I require meet & greets. - All pets must be up to date on vaccines. - All pets must be in generally good health. - I am not able to offer constant care during daytime hours on weekdays. (Additional costs will be applied for constant care). - Please let me know all about their personality, quirks, and habits! House Sitting notes: Every sitter uses this service a bit differently. For my services, house sitting = staying overnight in your home and caring for the pet between 5pm - 8am and 1 drop in around noon. Any additional needs require additional drop-in costs because I am not able to stay in your home the entire day (I must care for my own pet and another client daily). Don’t hesitate to ask questions if you have any! I'd love to hang out with your pet and work out a schedule! I do work full-time but have some flexibility in my hours. I currently have an opening for lunchtime walks or drop-ins, and I’m always open to doggy daycare. Weeknights and weekends are open! My home has a fenced in yard with lots of room to run and play, our house is small but we live in a quiet neighborhood with lots of good places to walk and sniff!
“April was great for day care for my golden for 2 days when I was recovering from hip surgery. My boy was completely worn out when he came home. He also enjoyed having a playmate . Will use again👍🏻”
“Ever since we started searching for a home, Vanessa has been our go to person to take care our my Lulu. She’s wonderful, very accommodating to last minute scheduling. I highly recommend Vanessa to take of your fur babies.”
About: I have hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages and temperaments. I have a dog of my own who I personally potty trained and taught basic tricks, which has given me a strong understanding of patience, consistency, and positive reinforcement. I am very caring and truly love animals more than anything, treating every dog as if they were my own. I focus on keeping pets safe, comfortable, and happy while following their routines closely, and I always make sure they receive plenty of attention, affection, and care. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I work part-time, which gives me plenty of time and flexibility to care for pets. I prefer morning and afternoon schedules, allowing me to provide consistent attention, walks, feeding, playtime, and companionship. I enjoy building my day around pets’ routines to make sure they feel comfortable, cared for, and well-loved. I make sure to follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and any special instructions. I focus on keeping pets comfortable in their familiar environment, giving them plenty of attention, affection, and supervision. I always prioritize safety, cleanliness, and communication, and I treat every home and pet with respect and care.
About: I love all dogs! I have a senior 12+ year old pitbull who is the most social and friendly dog anyone will ever meet. He himself has been going to doggy daycare for the last 8 years due to seperation anxiety. I work from home and do have to be at the office from time to time or job sites, so my days will vary. I’ll treat your pup like they are my own! I have been a bully breed dog mom for 21 years. We have no kids and a big yard almost a half acre where they can roam, play and of course sploot in the sun! If you pup needs meds I’m happy to help make sure they get their meds. I have plenty of dog beds for them to lounge and sleep too. I work from home, so am at a computer and can work from any room. I start at 8:30 and finish at 5 PM. I will never leave any pets unattended so they feel safe. Fenced yard and I’ll always be around watching when they venture out to the bathroom. If you tell me they need to pee every hour, on every hour it is.
“Bentley had a wonderful time with Rocket and Chewie. So much fun that I had to wrestle him out of their house. He didn't want to leave his two new friends who treated him like he was part of their family. Highly recommend.”

About: Hi! Thanks for visiting our page! We’re Michelle and Christy, a wife duo, who both run this account and are here to take care of your pets so you can a stress free vacation/business trip/break! We have always talked about owning a farm and adopting every dog available but since we know that’s not possible right now, we figured we’d offer our services to take care of other pets. We know how hard it can be to find a pet sitter you can rely on and trust but we would like to be that for you. We treat our pups like family (because they are!) and your dogs will be no different. We don’t want you worrying when you’re on vacation or a business trip and will provide updates and photos as much as you’d like. We’ve taken care of dogs our entire life. We’ve had family pets and our own pets that we’ve walked, administered meds, fed, and cuddled. We currently work from home so we would always be home with the pets to hang out and take care of them. They could go out whenever they needed. At my home: have a fenced in yard and we have two pups that love to have fun running around and playing with other dogs. At your home: I work from home so I can be around all day to hang out and take care of your animals.
“Absolutely amazing! Katherine not only booked on short notice (I was freaking out because our normal walker had to cancel last minute!) She was personable, went above and beyond and most importantly to me, Cookie loved her! It’s always scary leaving our pets home for trips etc. Katherine will put you at ease. Thanks again!!!”
“I used Annie for a few walks with my 2.5yr old lab and she was amazing! She took her for nice walks and even hung out with her in the yard, as my dog loves to sunbathe. Winnie can be hesitant with new people, but you can tell from the pictures she sent that she loved having Annie here! Thanks so much and will definitely be using her again! Highly recommended!”
About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life and have always had a love for animals. My current dog, Ellie, is a 4-year-old Shih-Poo. Before Ellie, our family dog was Cora, who was also a Shih-Poo and lived to be 16 years old. I also volunteered at a local dog shelter for 4 months, where I walked and bathed dogs of all different sizes. I helped my dad train Ellie, and I regularly help with her bathing, walking, and grooming. I’ve also dog-sat for family and friends while they’ve been away on vacation. I understand how important it is to feel comfortable leaving your pet in someone else’s care, and I would treat your dog with the same love, patience, and attention I give my own. 🐾 I work full-time during the week, so my availability for pet care is primarily on weekends. I’m committed to being dependable and making sure each pet feels comfortable and well cared for while they’re with me. I have a fenced in yard and a friendly 4 year old dog. I understand that every pet has their own personality and needs, so I’m happy to take the time to get to know them and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I’ll also keep pet parents updated so they know how their pet is doing.

About: I’ve taken care of many pets! From dog to tarantula I’ve had them all. I’ve handled the stubborn breeds like bull terrier to the loving breed like Labradors. I’ve raised multiple kitten litters and helped them get adopted out and took in many strays. I treat every animal as my own. Im available every week day after 8am!

I can easily crate your dog if needed and have a fenced in dog park. I do live in an apartment complex so room isn’t as spacious as a house.
“I had an absolutely wonderful experience with Bradlei. She was incredibly intentional with her time with my dogs and made sure they were well cared for, comfortable, and happy. Her communication was excellent, and the detailed updates including a thoughtful report card from their walks. This gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. She was trustworthy, respectful of my home, and clearly attentive to my dogs’ individual needs. When I returned, my dogs were calm and relaxed, which says everything about the level of care they received. I’m so grateful to have found her and would wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, compassionate dog walker”
About: I've had pets my entire life- cats and dogs both! I love animals, and love taking care of them. If my pets are happy, then I'm happy! I'm self-employed, so my schedule is wide open and set by none other than myself. I can make myself available as needed, and am able to change plans on short notice. I care for pets as if they're my own. I love animals and spending time with them, and I'm always sure to be respectful of whoever's home it is that I'm in.
About: I have owned a pup for 13 years and taught him how to be the best behaved dog at home - not to mention, I give the best doggy hugs and kisses :) My Fiance and I work from home all week so it’s usually not common for any dogs to be left alone. I give them all of my attention, and assure you are updated with all my pupdates!! I make sure to give them enough time outside, feed them, hydrate them, and of course give them unconditional love! Currently work from home and a very flexible job so I am able to provide most attention towards your pup and in general I have a lot of free time I got on multiple walks every day, I prefer walks over letting them out for potty breaks in a fenced yard. Getting their energy out on a long walk always calms them down a bit more throughout the day and I ensure they get all attention throughout the day :)

About: I’ve taken care of many dogs as a child and adult, my own dogs as well as those of family and friends. I’d love to help your pet stretch their legs, burn some energy or go on a casual walk My remote with schedule is very flexible so I’m able to come care for your dog on the schedule that fits their needs as well as yours. I can feed your pet, have some play time, take them out to use the bathroom, or go on a walk. If they are crated when you aren’t home, I can crate them too.
“Roisin is amazing! I have two dogs and one takes a long time to warm up to people. She doesn’t just stop by to walk the one that will go out with her, she spends time getting to know my second dog so hopefully one day he’ll be willing to go for a walk with her too. She is very respectful of his boundaries though. She’s so friendly and you can tell her love for animals is a passion of hers. She’s also very accommodating with my schedule! I couldn’t say enough great things about her to really emphasize how great she is! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!”
About: Natural born dog whisperer. Wanted a Pit bull ended up with a Chihuahua. I truly believe Cuco, my dog, was my animal soulmate. Although he has since passed, I loved caring for him full time and now hope to have the opportunity to care for your pup part time. I am a patient walker — even if that means infinite stops to sniff stuff. Will always speak to them as I would to a human child. Plus, no human children in household only your pet child. Can help with potty training and social/public anxiety relief. Guaranteed good belly rubs, affection, and fresh bowl of water/food at all times under my care. I’d be thrilled to take very photogenic pictures of them and send them your way along with updates. Please do not hesitate to contact me with any additional questions and/or concerns. I am a remote employee and am home 100% of the time with your pet. Pups are welcomed to join me for a day of work, enjoy window views (bark at delivery drivers) and take all the naps desired. Sliding door for them to look outside while inside. Indoor cameras to keep an eye on pup if up to trouble from my office. Designated space in the living room, kitchen, office, and loft for them. This is our home, and we hope to make your pup feel right at home too—pups are allowed on all furniture (couches, human beds). My partner Martin also lives here—he’s a very loving caretaker of dogs and often helps keep them busy on weekends or when he’s not at work.
About: Hi! Currently we have a 7 month old toy Australian shepherd puppy. I am a very active person that loves to love on pups by taking them for walks, playing in my fenced yard or offering snuggles! You can expect a total dog lover who will follow your rules and make your pup feel comfortable. I prefer smaller dogs with lots of energy because I love to walk dogs! I work from home. I enjoy taking the boarded pups for 1-2 walks per day. Our senior pup recently passed but I love the oldies too! Lots of love for them! I have a large, fenced yard and many routes for walks. I am an avid runner and can run with your dog at a pace of 8-9 minutes per mile for a minimum of 1 mile and maximum of 6 miles, after that I get tired!
About: Hi! I’m Nicole, and I work remotely as a graphic designer while pet-sitting! I’d love to hang out with your baby or take them on walks or just keep them company! The details: I’m currently open for a recurring lunch time walk/drop-in spot! I do have meetings throughout the day and work full-time, so it’s u likely I can accommodate any other weekday times. Weeknights and weekends are open though! I am open to sitting for all types of animals! I love to be outdoors, so walking and playing with your pet will be a treat for both me and them. I’m also cool with a little snuggle bug watching tv on the couch! I’ve walked and spent time with dogs of all shapes and sizes through volunteer work at a shelter in SK. You can count on me to love your pet as my own while I’m with them. I have no problem giving medication or any other special needs your dog might have. - I require meet & greets. - All pets must be up to date on vaccines. - All pets must be in generally good health. - I am not able to offer constant care during daytime hours on weekdays. (Additional costs will be applied for constant care). - Please let me know all about their personality, quirks, and habits! House Sitting notes: Every sitter uses this service a bit differently. For my services, house sitting = staying overnight in your home and caring for the pet between 5pm - 8am and 1 drop in around noon. Any additional needs require additional drop-in costs because I am not able to stay in your home the entire day (I must care for my own pet and another client daily). Don’t hesitate to ask questions if you have any! I'd love to hang out with your pet and work out a schedule! I do work full-time but have some flexibility in my hours. I currently have an opening for lunchtime walks or drop-ins, and I’m always open to doggy daycare. Weeknights and weekends are open! My home has a fenced in yard with lots of room to run and play, our house is small but we live in a quiet neighborhood with lots of good places to walk and sniff!

“I can't recommend Karen enough as a dog sitter! She has taken exceptional care of my dog, Django, and I always feel at ease knowing he's in her hands.

“Really came through for me when I needed a sitter last minute. Kept me really well updated with pics and videos of my dog while in his care. My dog and his dog have gotten along great, really kept him entertained!”
“I can't say enough wonderful things about Ana! She took excellent care of our Bella. This was our first time using a dog sitter and we couldn't have asked for a better caregiver. Ana gave daily updates that included pictures and videos. She also took Bella on walks and provided lots of cuddle time. She treated her like family and we appreciated that!”
“I can always trust Diana with our fur baby! He feels right at home when he stays at Diana and Brian’s. Thank you for being a trusted caretaker and friend!”
“Albina was very sweet and patient with our little baby. He is a handful with lots of energy. She sent lots of pictures and played with him. She was very patient as it was his first time being away from home and he cried a lot at night. Albina tried to comfort him by sleeping on the couch with our pup and even taking him to her bed. She even went the extra mile to make sure he eventually got some sleep when we took him home. 10/10”
“Our pup was so well-loved by Patricia and her family. From the second she met our dog I knew she was in good hands and the regular updates and pictures she sent reassured us of that. Could not recommend her services more highly!”

Her thoughtful care and regular updates gave me peace of mind. It’s clear that Kim truly cares and takes her responsibility seriously.”

“Katherine was absolutely amazing! I have two pups and she welcomed in her home for the weekend. My older dog tends to be my shadow and Katherine very graciously took that role making my pup feel so comfortable. My other dog is a bit choosey about other pups she plays with but Katherine’s dog Nemo is one of the good ones and they were great together!”
“My stella had a nice time staying with them. I received text each day telling me how the night went. Even when I came to pick her up they were on a walk with her. I will use there service again.”
