“We are so grateful for Lynette! We’ve had her take care of our 5 month old yorkie poo twice now, once for a weekend and once just for the day. The true testament to how good she is with our pup was how excited he was to see her when she came back to pick him up the second time! Lynette has been on time, very good at comminicating how things are going, and sends pictures while we’re away. She also took Dobby for walks and sent us a map of where and how far they went. I definitely recommend Lynette, she’s very sweet and you can tell how much she loves dogs and knows how to train and care for them.”
“Josephine recently took care of my 2 standard poodles - 12 years old and 4 years old. The 4 year old was rehomed to me a year ago and is a challenging dog. Josephine was just fantastic with both of them - taking care of the 12 year old's mobility issues and making sure the 4 year old was exercised and entertained. It was so clear from the photos Josephine sent that both pups were having a grand time and we have already booked their next stay!”
“We are beyond thrilled with the exceptional care our dog, Louis, received from Deb and Marron. From the very first interaction, their communication was outstanding—always prompt, clear, and incredibly thoughtful. They went above and beyond in terms of flexibility and attention to detail, which made us feel completely at ease leaving our boy in their care. It was so evident from the photos and updates that he was not just being looked after, but genuinely adored and doted on. They took him to the Santa Claus parade, had holiday photo shoots, and filled his days with so much fun, love, and big walks. He clearly was happy and we felt completely comfortable and trusting in their care. We have never experienced such personal, warm, and exceptional service from a dog-sitting duo. It’s clear that they do this for the pure love of dogs, and their kindness and professionalism shines through in every aspect of care within their lovely family home. Thank you for giving Louis such a memorable, safe, and joyful experience—we couldn’t recommend you both more highly!”
“Amanda and Lee have an amazing family to take care of your pet! Timber had such a blast at their house playing with their family and other pets. Amanda and Lee are very good with updates and pictures! We will definitely be back!”
“Heather is the most wonderful dog sitter! She is warm and understanding of our pet’s needs and I cannot say enough about the quality of care that our Willow received from Heather while we were away at a wedding. Willow was well fed, walked, played with and snuggled! We really felt at ease knowing that she was in good hands. Heather sent us updates, photos and even a little video of how Willow was doing and having so much fun playing with her dog Alfie. We are so totally impressed with Heather!”
“It has been several years since we have utilized Robyn’s services. She has previously stayed at our home to stay with our boys while we have travelled and she has also done drop in visits in the past. We had a family member who was able to stay with them for the last couple years. Now circumstances have changed and we decided to take them to stay with Robyn and could not be happier with the choice. We received lots of updates, and every picture had happy puppy dogs! Will happily bring the boys back. I know they are being well taken care of! Thank you Robyn!!”
“Dhanesha took good care of Phoebe, making sure she got lots of cuddles! It was great getting all the photos and videos so I could see how she was settling in - mostly on Dhanesha’s bed! I would definitely book Dhanesha again for future dog care!”
“Karli was very accommodating to Miss Sallie. Her warm welcoming dog friendly home and fenced yard allowed us to be stress free leaving are fur family there. She will top of my list next time we require overnight care for Sallie 💕😊”

“Stephen, Holly, and their family were wonderful hosts for our puppy, Cedar! This was Cedar’s first overnight stay away from us, and we came home to a happy, healthy, and tired pup. We really appreciated the photo updates, prompt communication, reliability, and their willingness to care for a high energy 6.5 month old puppy. It gave us great peace of mind while we were away. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with them again in the future!”
“Luke has been beyond amazing with Wall-E. We do not trust most people with our dog but Wall-E had an instant connection with Luke. Luke was extremely attentive to all of Wall-E's needs and kept us updated multiple times during the day. Towards the middle of our trip our anxiety about Wall-E was all gone. Would highly recommend Luke to any dog parent. Thanks Luke!”
“Kaylee and her family are amazing. She always sends me plenty of pictures making my getaways from my fur baby much easier. If your looking for a trustworthy, loving, caring family, Kaylee and her family are definitely the family for you.”

“Took great care of my fur babies and consistently gave me updates of them. She was able to accommodate for my last minute change and I have no complaints! My cats had their own seperate part of the house away from any other animals in the home and they had a good amount to room to roam. Would definitely recommend her to anyone in the area!”
About: Hi, I’m Michaela! Animals have been at the center of my life for as long as I can remember. I grew up on a farm, so caring for animals has always been second nature to me. From dogs and cats to horses, goats, and other livestock, I’ve spent my whole life learning how to handle animals of all sizes with confidence and care. Professionally, I’ve built my career around animal care: • I currently work as a Client Care Specialist at Countryside Veterinary Clinic, where I interact daily with pets and their families, gaining valuable insight into health, behavior, and comfort needs. • I previously worked at the Lewis County Humane Society, where I cared for shelter animals, helped match pets with families, and supported the team with everything from feeding and cleaning to hands-on enrichment and socialization. • I also run my own small business, Kales Kritters, offering grooming, boarding, and in-home care for dogs and cats of all temperaments and needs. • Additionally, I founded A New Leash on Life, a local nonprofit that provides pet supplies, food, and resources to families in need. Between my farm upbringing, shelter work, and veterinary clinic role, I’ve had the privilege of caring for animals in every stage of life — from bottle babies to seniors — and I’m comfortable with special needs, medications, and unique temperaments. Whether it’s walks, drop-ins, overnights, or just giving your pet a little extra love while you’re away, I treat every animal like they’re my own.

Perfect for high energy dogs - Wellesley Island
“Charles took amazing care of Mario! When we picked him up, Mario was happily tired out after all the playing. We were visiting Gananoque on a trip, and it was such a relief to have Charles look after him while we went on a cruise.”
“Luke was great with Cow! She immediately started playing with her toys with him and that’s a rare occurrence with strangers. She was pooped after a day of walks with him and it was nice to know that she could get some exercise and some couch cuddles, the perfect balance for her. Luke was keen to oblige to all the picky requirements that a chihuahua has. 20/10 would leave Cow with Luke again! Thanks for being flexible with booking and for taking good care of her!”
“Another great visit for Jackson with Nicole. He was happy to see her and had a fun play day with her family and other guests staying for doggy day care. He was not stressed and was very content when we picked him up. Thanks Nicole for taking such good care of Jackson.”
About: I've been the go-to pet sitter for family and friends since I was 16, caring for dogs of all ages, from energetic puppies to senior dogs who need a slower pace and extra attention. I'm comfortable administering medications and following specific care instructions to help keep pets happy, healthy, and on their normal routine. I understand that every dog has a unique personality and needs, and I take the time to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your dog. My goal is to provide reliable, attentive care and give owners peace of mind knowing their pet is in good hands. I'm partially retired and have a flexible schedule, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the pets in my care. As a former dog mom, I miss the companionship, walks, joy and love that dogs bring to everyday life, which is what inspired me to join Rover. Whether your dog needs a walk, company during the day, or extra attention while you're away, I'm able to provide reliable care and accommodate a variety of schedules. I genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs and look forward to making them feel safe and comfortable. Safety and trust are my top priorities. I carefully follow each owner's instructions regarding routines, feeding, medications, and any special needs. During walks, I pay close attention to my surroundings and your dog's comfort level to help ensure a safe and positive experience. I understand that every dog is different, and I take the time to build trust at their pace. My goal is to provide consistent, dependable care so both you and your pet feel comfortable and confident.
“Saskia was wonderful! She gave sent us numerous photos and kept us updated through the day. We got updated through the day and she was very kind and friendly. We’ll definitely be using her again!”

I have a fenced in backyard as well as two friendly dogs of my own, which can keep your furry friend company throughout the day. I am available anytime of day and would be so honoured to take care of your loved ones.
“Anna & Aleksei has been really helpful and attentive to all my pet’s needs. She was consistent in giving updates and making sure that Chico’s having a great time in their company. I would highly recommend them to my friends and everyone looking to look after their beloved pets.”

“I would definitely recommend Nicole to take care of your furry pet. Our dog usually just finds a corner to mope in. Nicole sent us some photos of Lucky mingling with the other dogs and he looked So happy. Thank you for putting Lucky at ease while staying with you.”
“We had a wonderful experience with Walelign. Mimi was very well cared for, and we truly appreciated the constant communication, we always received quick and thoughtful updates whenever we reached out. Mimi came back calm and happy, which means a lot to us. She is usually quite anxious around new people, but she didn’t show any signs of stress this time and didn’t cry at all. It was clear she felt safe and comfortable. Walelign truly went above and beyond, and we are very grateful. We would absolutely trust him again and feel confident leaving Mimi in his care. Thank you so much!”
“Oreo loved his stay, I dropped him off on both Saturday and Sunday for a few hours ! Each day , she responded immediately and let me bring him very short notice! She was amazing with him, she sent pictures during his stay ,i can tell he enjoyed the walks ( he’s used to walks in the city not country walks) she kept him on schedule and I loved to see him interact with the other dogs , the new environment , and the love and care Andrea effortlessly gave to Oreo. I will continue to book with her when I’m in the area. Thanks again 🫶🏾”
“Daniel was so great watching my little guy Harvey! He really took the time to learn about Harvey’s walk schedule, what some of his favourite games are and you could tell he just really loves dogs!”
“I booked Rose for my dog Luna and the experience overall was smooth and easy. Communication was friendly, scheduling was simple, and I appreciated the updates during the day. Luna came home happy and tired, which is always a good sign! Thank you for taking good care of her.”
“Ana was very friendly, polite and knew exactly how to take care of my Chico. Definitely recommend her to anyone who need to leave their furbabies either for a few hours or a few days.”
About: I have taken care of many different types of cats and dogs over the years and can't wait to meet more. I provide high-end care for any pets in the Kingston area! For pets coming over to my home for care, I have one female golden, Sia, who gets along well with all animals. I work part-time at Queen's University during the evenings and always have all daytimes free for whatever you or your pet has in mind for that day! I have strong safety senses and always come prepared with all the crucial first aid equipment and pet tools that could be needed in any situation. I also have the back of my car setup for pets, should yours need to be transported somewhere.

About: I’ve had pets (dogs of all sizes and cats) my whole life and currently have two corgis. If there’s a dog or cat in a room, that’s where you’ll find me. I follow your instructions to a T because I believe the way you need pet care doesn’t stop when you leave for a trip. Also available for emergency drop ins and help, because you never know when life get crazy. Having pets myself, pet care it’s my routine! I focus my day around making sure pet’s needs are met, as well as try to go above and beyond to make them as happy as they make us. I follow your instructions to a T - if you need/want your pets cared for in a certain way, I’ll make sure that it’s done just as you need!
About: I’ve had dogs all my life. My 23 years have been surrounded by dogs, it was up to us to take care of them. Food, water, walks, playing, affection, and of course cuddles. I’m going to college for vet tech at the end of the year 2026, so I take high pride in taking care of any precious being I have the gracious chance of doing so for. I’m currently a door dasher so my schedule is extremely flexible. I will be able to be on here as well as do door dashing. I will be aware of the clients home and the surroundings inside and outside of the home as well as where it is located. Use extreme caution near busy areas.
About: I’ve grown up with animals in my life since I was born and my mom worked at a Vet Clinic for 13 years so I’ve seen my fair share of all sorts of breeds! From little Pugs to giant Cane Corsos! I’m up for anything and happy to help in anyway I can! I am usually free throughout the week especially with a heads up I should have no problems being able to help you out with whatever needs to be done! And I’ll be happy doing it! I have a dog named Motley who is 4 years old! She’s a mutt but we love her so much and she gets along well with other animals. Sometimes she’s a bit excited with new people/ animals but she is crate trained and potty trained so shouldn’t be a problem!
