“As always, Jennifer and Brent were great with Copper. He loves them and gets very excited when we are entering their home and he realizes where he is going. They are always great with him and flexible with his stay times which we really appreciate. Thanks, Guys!”
“Thanks Stephanie for taking such good care of our little Lexi. It was obvious by the videos you sent to us that she really enjoyed her stay with you. We are happy to know that we will have such a welcoming place to leave her in the future if the need arises. Anne & Jorg Seitz”
“I was nervous with this being Hercules first time at a sitter that wasn’t family. But we had a introduction a few weeks prior and I realized I had nothing to be nervous about!! Hercules had great time at Beverly’s. Beverly and her husband were wonderful, and Hercules loved them both! We received many updates, and pictures throughout his stay. Highly recommend Beverly. We will definitely book again with her.”
“Hayley did a fantastic job with Coco. Hayley responds quickly. She made a lot of pictures so we don't worry about Coco. I saw Coco's pictures lounging on the couch, walking together with Penny. Thank you so much for taking care of Coco. We will do this again.”
“I had to make alternative plans for boarding my dog the week before Christmas. I was in a bad spot and wanted the best care for Trouble. Samantha was extremely accommodating. Since I was nervous leaving my dog she provided updates and pictures through Troubles stay for me which was a gigantic relief. I also had to change my return plans to significantly earlier because of weather and again she accommodated the last minute request. I'm very happy and Trouble had a fantastic time. If I need to board Trouble again I will definately reach out to board with Samantha and her family.”
“I know my dog had a good experience because she was very calm when she came home, which indicated she was happy and hadn't been in distress. I received photos and updates on her behavior which were wonderful. Would definitely use Matrice's services again.”
“Catia was incredibly attentive to my dog while she was boarded. My dog was incredibly well taken care of and had exciting enrichment opportunities (playing with others, trips to the park, time in the backyard, and quality snuggle time indoors). Catia offered a safe and fun home for my dog to board while I was away and sent many updates while I was away. I would absolutely book with Catia again!”
“As usual Courtney and her family did an amazing job watching my two little ones. They are such a caring family. There was an incident with another dog and Courtney and her family took my dog to our vet to get her checked out. She didn’t have to but just knowing that she did that to make sure there wasn’t any major problem really reassured my trust for their family. I will continue to go to Courtney and her family to care for my dogs.”
“Camila watched our Morkie for 8 days and was so wonderful with him. We got daily updates with pictures. I felt so confident he was in good hands with her and Santiago. Thanks a million! So happy we found you both! Finnegan will be back! Xo”
About: Hi! I’m Holly, a lifelong dog lover who works from home, so your pup will get plenty of company and attention throughout the day. I have a 15 year old small fluffy white dog with medical needs, so I understand how important it is to trust someone with your dog’s care. Whether your dog is energetic and loves long walks, or prefers a slower pace and lots of cuddles, I’m happy to tailor their routine to what they’re used to. I’m comfortable with puppies, senior dogs, medication (including eye drops), special feeding routines, and dogs with separation anxiety who need a little extra patience or reassurance. I know every dog is different, and I take the time to learn their personality and routines so they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. I’ll keep you updated with plenty of photos and messages, so you can relax knowing your dog is in good hands. I’d love to meet you and your pup! I work from home, so I am available to take your dog on walks, playtime, and potty breaks as needed. There is a dog bed in my office for your pup to hang out with me! I am attentive to all specific instructions. If your pet has specific needs like personality quirks, separation anxiety, medication schedules, or is very routine-driven, just let me know and I’m happy to adapt. All dogs are different, so let me know how I can best replicate your typical schedule to provide some stability and comfort for your pet!
“Monique was amazing with our 2 little unsocial dogs. She spend alot of time with them to get them comfortable in her home and acquainted with her dogs. She kept us updated regularly with photos and messages. She did an incredible job and reassured us that everything was fine. She even administered vitamines to one of the dogs. She had great suggestions and tips to keep the dogs calm and how to introduce them in a new environment. Highly recommend!”
“I usually leave my dog with family anytime I go away. But with everyone at a family wedding I had to look elsewhere for a dog sitter. I was drawn in by the number of positive reviews that Jeff had as well as the number of repeat customers. Jeff was awesome. He was very responsive prior and set up a meet and greet right away. He sent multiple pictures and small video updates throughout my dog's stay with him. I will definitely be a repeat customer.”
“Melanie has been boarding my German shepherd River for several months now, and she’s simply just the BEST! She’s very professional, kind and caring, and accommodating. River is always excited to go there to hang out with her dog Tulo and her kids. It’s a huge load off my mind that he’s being well looked after for both short and long stays. Thanks so much for all you do Melanie!”
“We are very grateful and happy for the care they gave our little Loki. They were always very communicative and affectionate. Thank you very much. 100% recommended.”
“My cat Vlad was well taken care of and loved with Julio! I got consistent updates and pictures of how he was doing during his stay, and would recommend Julio to anyone needing a trust worthy sitter for their furry friend! I’m excited to continue using his services in the future!”
“Couldn't be happier with the care Connor gave to Atlas. He also sent amazing updates and so many great pictures. It was clear that Atlas was super well cared for and we're so grateful.”

“Fantastic service our pups were well taken care of and I felt so relaxed and at ease to enjoy our trip to niagara Falls! Marie sent pictures, was on time and did a great job! I would use her again and i recommend her to anyone! Thank you Marie!”
“Amanda was fabulous! She watched my cat and her 6, 5-week-old kittens as a last minute request, and on Christmas too! She clearly spent meaningful time with the cats because in the wonderful pictures, they were playing and snuggling with her. She also extended our time to include one additional visit, also with very little notice. Thank you Amanda!”
“Barbie was incredible with my cat family -- she went way above and beyond in feeding them and medicating them. I definitely hope to ask her again to care for my kitties.”
“April is so great! She took excellent care of my cat who is very lovable and doesn’t like to be alone for too long. She sent photos and a perfect update after dropping by my house to care for him. I have asked her to come back already for another sitting! Thank you again”
About: I have been fostering dogs for the past 2 and a half years. Animals are a true passion of mine. I am experienced will all breeds. I have also taken dog training classes. I work most nights. So I am available during the day to check on your pets during the day while you are at work. I understand the feeling it’s great leaving them alone all day. I’m here to help. I care for all pets as they are my own. I love meeting new dogs cats and other animals as well. Pets are truly family members
“Belle was great and I would highly recommend her! This was the first time using a service, we always had a family member watch our pets, so I was a little nervous. Belle put my mind at ease, she texted me updates everyday with pictures, and I knew by the pictures and texts she was thorough and taking such good care of my kitties (and fish). She was concerned when one of my kitties wouldn’t come out, but she is a very scared cat around new people, so I wasn’t worried about it, but within a couple days she came out while Belle was there, so I knew they loved her and trusted her. We did a meet and greet prior which I was really happy about, we were able to introduce her to the kitties and went over everything. We are going on another trip and have booked Belle again!!”
“Mackenzie always does an awesome job with Penney Lane. My somewhat neurotic cat loves her. She always shares lots of pictures which assures me that all is well. I'll always go to Mackenzie first to book pet care.”
“Megan did a excellent job watching our little man Guido. He can be very picky on who he gives his attention to. In every picture she sent he was snuggled up on her. Which means he is very happy and comfortable. So glad we found Megan as a sitter. We will definitely use her again.”
“Shantel kindly helped me out in an emergency situation on a holiday weekend. She sent photos to put my mind at ease, and was communicative and compassionate with my situation. I’ll gladly rebook Shantel anytime for caring for my fur babies, for the peace of mind and the exceptional care she offers.”
About: I’ve taken care of many family members cats for years, gaining experience with a wide range of breeds, temperaments, and medical needs. I have a passion for keeping pet spaces clean and stress-free—yes, even the litter box! My goal is to give every pet personalized care and every owner complete peace of mind.
About: My first formal pet sitting experience was taking out and playing with my uncle’s black lab puppy after school, my senior year of high school. Then, that same year I pet my aunt’s 2 cats in 2016. During the pandemic, for over a year, I stayed at my friend’s house while she was away at work. I would take her precious pup Lala out for walks, give Lala and her cat-sister Sophia their meds with breakfast, and treat them like the princesses they are. I recently left law school, so my availability is completely free until I find a full-time job! I would love to set your mind at ease by visiting your home as often as you’d like! I would care for my clients’ pets the same way I care for my cat-son, Remy. I give him all the attention he desires, and I do the less-than-desireable things (like washing his litterbox monthly, clipping his nails, and brushing his teeth) with a smile because I know it’s what’s best for him.
“If I could rate higher than five stars, I would! Jaddua is incredible. I received daily updates, photos, and videos of my cats while they were in his care, and he was extremely accommodating and kind. I will definitely be using his services in the future (and highly recommend them)!”
“We absolutely recommend Samantha to anyone looking for help with their pet , she is a wonderful, caring, professional and kind person who adores animals!!! We were so thrilled with her services, and will definitely use her again. She came to our house for several weeks, doing drop-in visits with our dog when I was out of town working remote. I received a over Report Card everytime, detailing all the care and the fun that they had together. She also sent multiple pictures everytime as well. Millie looked forward to Samantha's visits and they became fast best friends. They played fetch, went on walks, had potty breaks and food breaks and lots of cuddling! Thank you Samantha:)”
About: I am a lover of all animals. Growing up, we had a dog and rescued cats. Currently, I have two dogs and no cats, but I often care for cats of my family and close friends. Drop ins, routine feeding and water, play time, litter changes, whatever is needed.
“Natalie has been an amazing help for me and my wife whenever we go out of town. She is super caring and takes the time to make sure everything is well taken care. Our two cats love her and always look forward to it when she comes over to take care of them. Highly recommend Natalie!”

“Martrice, had very good communication and kept me updated with goober and sending lots of pics i truly enjoyed the pictures. I will definitely book again and highly recommend!!”
“Meagan, you and your family did such an amazing job caring for my pup, Alfie! Meagan followed all of my requests and kept me updated throughout the whole entire visit according to my request. Their home is intentionally set up to accommodate caring for a dog, with areas gated for safety. Her daughter's are also extremely sweet and I appreciate that they spent time and playing with Alfie. They are clearly dog savvy kids and were very respectful of him and his needs. I don't even think Alfie knew I was gone 🙄😂 Thank you very much Meagan & family!!”
“Our Max had a wonderful time in Monique’s care. We took advantage of the pick up & drop off service, (worth every cent or the additional charge), as we were traveling in a RV parked at the KOA. She sent many photo up dates throughout the long day 9am - 10pm. He enjoyed socializing and walking with the other dogs and a lot of lap time. Max was very excited to see us and told all about his days adventures in his silly way of conversing with us. 🐾❣️🐾”
“We were very pleased with Andreas' care. Very friendly, reliable, calm, and our dog seemed quite comfortable with him, despite often having separation anxiety. Also appreciated the pro-level photography.”
“We are very grateful that Kelly is very flexible with our drop off and pick up time. She also updated us with whats happening when kobe is with her and we appreciate that. We are not from Niagara and we feel secure that Kobe is with Kelly. We will definitely be back to send Kobe for daycare with her.”
“Charlene was amazing. My doggie is from the US and he now has a CA dog buddy name Dora & a special human friend Charlene🌷. She took such great care of Rocket. He enjoyed himself for 2 daytime daycare visits.. This helped us have a more enjoyable vacation and afforded Rocket the same as well. This was our first road trip with Rocket. Thank You so much Charlene.💐🌸🌺🌸🌷🌷🌷🌷🌺🌸💐”
“Emily was great to work with! Very flexible and accommodating. She had great communication. I could tell that my dog had a good day with her. I would definitely book with her again!”
“Karen and Jorge were amazing with Ocho! They took great care of him, kept us updated with photos throughout the day, and made us feel completely at ease. We highly recommend them and would definitely book with them again! 🐶💛”
“I can't say enough good things about Jolene and Martin! Ellie loved them and loved going to their home for care:) she came home tired and hungry and that was great! She was so excited when we were in the car turning onto their street, it was so reassuring to see! This is my first experience with doggy daycare and I won't hesitate to book them again should the need arise:) thank you for being so good to my Ellie!!!”
About: Extremely experienced and have been taking care of animals for over 15 years! I treat each pet like a family member with unconditional love <3 I am currently at home full time, so I will have unlimited time to spend with each and every fur baby! My schedule is very open; available for boarding almost 7 days a week! Caring for animals isn't just a job to me; it is natural and part of my every day life! Great size family home with lots of room and comfy furniture for them to feel right at home. I have a fully fenced in back yard, offering lots of play time outside. Awesome neighborhood for ample walks as well. I do have two friendly cats; both love and are used to dogs. If the need for crating is requested, I do have one available.
About: I am a mid 30s working professional looking to provide care and companionship for your fur babies. I have a flexible schedule most days and am willing to travel within a few hours of the Niagara area for multi-day housesitting. I have the time and patience to care for your pets and home as if they were my own. I am a dog mom to a very special rescue girl and have over a decade of experience as a foster mum to puppies, adult dogs as well as cats and kittens. I have worked with dogs with limited on-leash training and some reactive behaviors. I am a current Humane Society dog volunteer. I am conscientious when it comes to introductions and interactions with other dogs, or as you instruct. I am happy to chat with you further about my services or arrange a meet and greet I work from home 3 days a week and have flexibility with my work hours, depending on the day. If staying at your home, I would need wifi access. I am experienced with fearful and flight risk dogs. I have a dog bed in almost every room and there are plenty of welcoming snooze spots on the blanketed couch. I'm happy to maintain the same rules as you in terms of furniture access :)
“Bo had an amazing fun time with Connor! We definitely recommend Connor to care for you fur baby. We'll be back for sure! Connor was quick to respond to messages and actually did things with Bo rather than keep him in the backyard all day. Bo was happy to be included in Connor's activities and hang out with Connor when Bo was ready to rest. Thanks Connor for taking great care of our pup!”
“My senior rescue babies are so shy, but they felt immediately at home with Hayley and her sweet pup! This inspires so much confidence and we are definitely rebooking!”
“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!”
“Lauren connected very well with my fur girl from the very beginning. Looking at the pictures that she share I could definitely see that being outside on the balcony with Lauren was one of her favorite times of her stay....as she took in the sights and sounds of the neighborhood along with catching a few rays!”
“I feel like Courtney isn't just the best dog sitter, she's one of the best humans. She was so welcoming and understanding of my not completely house trained pup, and she's almost like a trainer as well as sitter. She's worked on crate training and commands with my pup, even letting me borrow things to help at home. Five other sitters denied my request to watch a puppy, but Courtney is the ultimate dog lover, and honestly has more patience than anyone I've ever met. My only concern is that my pup loves being at her house maybe more than mine, since Courtney's dogs are her new best friends! I can't recommend her highly enough, except I'll be sad if she ever ends up booked when I need her. I couldn't imagine using anyone else.”
“We were in NOTL for vacation and needed a dogsitter while we took an all day tour. Paula was most helpful in watching our Roxy while we were gone all day. She communicated frequently with us and gave us updates on how Roxy was doing. She even sent photos of Roxy snuggling with her. She obviously is a dog (and cat) lover. We would definitely use Paula again for our petsitting needs.”

About: I’ve been around and cared for animals my whole life and would love to spend time with yours! I regularly house sit and do overnight stays for local families and take care of their pets while they’re away.

About: I’ve taken care of a couple different dogs for around three to four years now doing basic care takings needs such as playing, walking, and feeding. I have also had a Shih tzu of my own for 3 years now. I work part time and I am a full time student. My summer schedule has classes and work several days of the week. I’m generally free most mornings and after 9pm on days I work. I let my dog walk around our home freely. However in our backyard I have a leash for him so he can walk around while not being able to run off! When I am dog watching when I am away I would crate the dog if im gone for several hours and let them roam if its for a short amount of time.
“Tatyjana was phenomenal! She took great care of our 8 month old corgi, Poke, during his walk and was careful to not let our 3 year old indoor cat outside during the process! She is very professional, and made sure to keep us updated from the start of the walk to it’s finish. We will definitely be reaching out to her again in the future.”
About: Hello! My name is Reta, and I look forward to meeting you and so many new animal friends. At home, we have our seven-year-old St. Bernard, Moose, and Tobi, an eight-year-old shepherd/husky/lab mix. Every now and then we have a foster or an overnight dog friend added to the mix. Volunteering with a dog rescue organization, I have experience with dogs of all ages and breeds with different temperaments, needs, and skills. Services provided: dog socialization, check-ins, feeding, walks, play time, general needs, overnight stays at yours or mine. I am an animal lover. I’m the person at the party hanging out with the dog. To able to do that professionally is the dream. Allow me to put your mind at ease whether it’s walking, feeding, checking in on your pet, or an overnight while you’re away. I work evenings in the restaurant industry so my schedule is flexible given time ahead. Any questions, please ask away! I work nights in the service industry so my schedule is fairly flexible with time given in advance. Daily check-ins, feedings or walks I am available daily until 4:00, if it is a work day. Pet sitting overnight or for extended stays, I would make proper arrangements. If boarding, I have a fenced-in yard and two dogs at home. When staying over, all animals eat from different bowls, and are fed separate from fosters or guests. We work on our manners and listening, as well as walk and play. Crated by request. Dogs can be kept separate if needed. If checking in, we would have covered basics and expectations during our meet and greet. Your space and your home, I treat with the utmost respect. Enter quietly, greet the pet, and proceed with walks, feeding, etc. I ask that we lay out all required services, copies of pet vaccines, and emergency contact information ahead of time.
About: I have had both cats and dogs for nearly my entire life. I have owned and cared for dogs of all ages and sizes, some with special needs. I believe that for the love and companionship animals offer us, the least we can do for them is make sure they are well loved back and always happy and healthy! I do work part time during the week, however I am available Tuesdays and Thursdays indefinitely and have the ability to work around my work schedule for bookings on other days of the week if need be. I look forward to helping with your pet care needs and making new friends! ☺️ If you have a fenced in yard, I am more than happy to play with your pup in their own yard. If you do not have a fenced in yard, I would just ask that their leash and a secure collar be placed in an area where it is easy to find, as well as instructions of how far/long you would like them to be walked/exercised. I am also willing to accommodate any other requests clients may have to ensure the safety and well being of their pets.

“Thanks Stephanie for taking such good care of our little Lexi. It was obvious by the videos you sent to us that she really enjoyed her stay with you. We are happy to know that we will have such a welcoming place to leave her in the future if the need arises. Anne & Jorg Seitz”

If I need to board Trouble again I will definately reach out to board with Samantha and her family.”
“I know my dog had a good experience because she was very calm when she came home, which indicated she was happy and hadn't been in distress. I received photos and updates on her behavior which were wonderful. Would definitely use Matrice's services again.”
“Catia was incredibly attentive to my dog while she was boarded. My dog was incredibly well taken care of and had exciting enrichment opportunities (playing with others, trips to the park, time in the backyard, and quality snuggle time indoors). Catia offered a safe and fun home for my dog to board while I was away and sent many updates while I was away. I would absolutely book with Catia again!”
About: Hi! I’m Holly, a lifelong dog lover who works from home, so your pup will get plenty of company and attention throughout the day. I have a 15 year old small fluffy white dog with medical needs, so I understand how important it is to trust someone with your dog’s care. Whether your dog is energetic and loves long walks, or prefers a slower pace and lots of cuddles, I’m happy to tailor their routine to what they’re used to. I’m comfortable with puppies, senior dogs, medication (including eye drops), special feeding routines, and dogs with separation anxiety who need a little extra patience or reassurance. I know every dog is different, and I take the time to learn their personality and routines so they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. I’ll keep you updated with plenty of photos and messages, so you can relax knowing your dog is in good hands. I’d love to meet you and your pup! I work from home, so I am available to take your dog on walks, playtime, and potty breaks as needed. There is a dog bed in my office for your pup to hang out with me! I am attentive to all specific instructions. If your pet has specific needs like personality quirks, separation anxiety, medication schedules, or is very routine-driven, just let me know and I’m happy to adapt. All dogs are different, so let me know how I can best replicate your typical schedule to provide some stability and comfort for your pet!
“I usually leave my dog with family anytime I go away. But with everyone at a family wedding I had to look elsewhere for a dog sitter. I was drawn in by the number of positive reviews that Jeff had as well as the number of repeat customers. Jeff was awesome. He was very responsive prior and set up a meet and greet right away. He sent multiple pictures and small video updates throughout my dog's stay with him. I will definitely be a repeat customer.”
“Melanie has been boarding my German shepherd River for several months now, and she’s simply just the BEST! She’s very professional, kind and caring, and accommodating. River is always excited to go there to hang out with her dog Tulo and her kids. It’s a huge load off my mind that he’s being well looked after for both short and long stays. Thanks so much for all you do Melanie!”
“We are very grateful and happy for the care they gave our little Loki. They were always very communicative and affectionate. Thank you very much. 100% recommended.”
“Couldn't be happier with the care Connor gave to Atlas. He also sent amazing updates and so many great pictures. It was clear that Atlas was super well cared for and we're so grateful.”
“Kendra was amazing to work with. She made a stressful last minute trip that came up for my family so much easier. The comfort I felt knowing my dogs were being cared for by her was priceless. She was very attentive with communication and pictures. I will definitely be using her again. 🥰”
“Mindy was great with my dog and made sure he was able to stay active while staying with her. She has a nice backyard where the dogs can play and also takes them on walks. I also received several pictures/videos throughout the stay, which put my mind at ease knowing that my dog was in good hands and having a good time.”
“Erica was absolutely amazing! This was our first experience boarding outside of friends and family, and she made us feel so comfortable with pictures and updates. Arthur had the best time and came home a very happy pup. Erica went out of her way to know our preferences and make sure Arthur felt at home. 100% will be booking again!!”
“Jessica is fantastic! She is very loving, kind, and communicative! 1 of our 2 pups is special needs and she kept us in the loop with everything and sent pictures. Both puppies came back so happy!”
“We just picked up Louis after he stayed with Grecia and Stormy from May 27 -June 6. Once again, Grecia has taken such good care of our boy and we will book again the next time we are away.”
“Jenn & Brian did an amazing job with our puppy! She loved playing with their 3 dogs in their backyard and going on walks with them. They took great care of our puppy!”
“Jade was awesome! Sh looked after my 15 week old pup Marlo and made me feel very comfortable leaving her there. She made sure that Marlo would get along with the other dog in her care and would send me pictures of Marlo. Also her response time was always very quick. Would highly recommend.”
