“Jenn and Brian were outstanding. I gave them a long list of details about my puppy and they were able to accommodate everything. I was given a bunch of pictures throughout the day of him having a great time. Burned all his energy and had a bunch of fun. Didn’t want to leave as we were pulling away! Would highly recommend.”

“Erika is a truly kind spirit whose patience and caring has always been appreciated any time she’s watched my dogs and cats. I’ve had her care for my pets several times while I’ve been away and have never had to worry because I knew they were in good hands. She’s responsible and attentive and a true help while I’ve been away on vacation, making my trips more enjoyable knowing my fur babies were cared for at home.”

About: ✨ Welcome to private care for your dog. We only accept bookings from one family at a time.✨ Our one visitor at a time policy helps with: 🥇Less opening/closing of doors preventing an escape. 🥈Lower chances of fighting amongst unfamiliar dogs which decreases the risk of spreading diseases. 🥉The opportunity to have time and space to hang out together. ❗️Our rates are higher than some other sitters & kennels in the local area. Please note that this is because of the unique service offering of private dog sitting. We are not in competition with businesses that take on multiple clients at once. We thank you for your understanding and for your business! 📸 Anxious about spending time apart from your four legged friend? Not to worry, a daily photo and description will be sent to calm those nerves. If you’d prefer, you can also have a quick video call with them! 🇨🇦💲🇺🇸 All rates are in Canadian dollars. Enjoy the exchange rate savings by booking with us! 👬 Both my partner and I have taken care of dogs since early childhood. They have been an integral part of our day to day lives. Providing care to someone without a voice means understanding their emotions and expressions. 🕐 If your booking is accepted it means that we will be present with your dog. Any work conducted outside of Rover is fully remote. 🔒 We maintain a gated, locked, and fully fenced in backyard. This means that there is no risk of a dog escaping on our watch!

About: . As cliché as it sounds , dogs are my life! I am passionate about the way they communicate. I highly enjoyed back when I volunteered at a foster rescue agency in Charlotte, NC. This opportunity polished my skill of handling myself in high pressure and high energy situations when it comes to dogs and cats. Working for Rover, growing up with dogs, and volunteering was another rewarding pet experience I had which gives you basic but hands on independent experience with clients and there furry loved ones. Rover is actually my main job. It’s enough to support yourself as well as I love the schedule flexibility. I am home most of the time and if I do leave it’s usually just to the grocery store or maybe to dinner. I love being home and watching TV or doing some type of new art. I’m studying to attend Animal Behavior College so I can train PTSD Service dogs and maybe even help socialize shelter pups. As I said I am home most of the time minus the normal grocery store run or what have you. They will get frequent potty breaks as well as a nighttime long walk to wind down so shall they stay overnight. If they have any problem areas,I like to dedicate a small slot of time to enrichment aka knowing as training time. Great way to help me practice as well as help any areas a part might need to work on… Not that they’re not perfect as is 😇. I’m a single mom who has my son by myself full-time however, please don’t think that will interrupt the level of care or undivided attention that your pup will have! My son loves animals he absolutely gets so excited whenever I have a client! Due to being a single mother, I am home full-time, and Rover as I said as my main job. Although I don’t even look at it as a job I seriously love what I do. Whenever I do have a client, I like to adapt to whatever your pups schedule is! I don’t mind getting up as early as 6 AM if that’s what they’re used to. I found that it’s better to keep them on the schedule that they have at home as it helps them acclimate to being away from home. I love my clients and I’m very signature with each one. I like to tailor my service based on the clients needs. For instance, if they are an anxious client with separation anxiety, I will sleep in the living room with them so they do not feel alone. I even like to do little blanket forts with my son and the client and that gives them a little den to feel safe in. If they don’t mind being in the bedroom they are more than welcome in there. I give each client free roam of my home. Whether you choose your home or mine, I will focus solely on making sure your fur baby is not only cared for, but stays entertained as well as meet all of their needs accurately and on time. What’s more is that my home is a calm, peaceful, spacious 4 bedroom with a good size backyard. In the backyard, I have a stake leash tie out so your pup can be secured since it’s not fully fenced in but they also will have about a 20 foot diameter to roam around and feel free. I never leave any client unattended out there however just for safety precautions. In my home, I have plenty of guest items in case you forget anything such as toys, food/water bowls, beds, even doggie sweaters in three different sizes for the colder months and doggy boots in two sizes in case it’s muddy/rainy! I offer meet and greets before the sitting so you and your fur baby can get comfortable and acclimated with myself and my home and I can then address any concerns and answer any questions you may have. During the meet and greet I will also ask YOU a few short yet detailed questions to make sure I take the utmost care of your fur baby while you’re away be it in your home or mine! Some of the questions include specific feeding times, vet & ICE information, favorite, toys, and games, and discuss any behavior issues or anxieties and how I can best comfort them! All pups get to go home with a thank you card and a new toy whether it’s a rope, ball, or squeaker depending on what their favorite is! As you’ll see, it’s an option to take care of your pup in your home if you’re more comfortable with that. When you book housesitting, this includes of course, first and foremost, taking care of your fur baby just the way I would at my house but also includes watering any plants, bringing in any packages or mail, and though it’s not specified through Rover, I like to go above and beyond, so I don’t mind doing any laundry or lighthouse cleaning. I assure you when you arrive home your home will be in the same if not better condition then you left it!

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!”

18. Jennifer P.
“She has taken care of my dog before and she's great! She makes sure to give them plenty of time to play in the fenced in yard, and she makes sure to follow any special directions or requests specific to the dog. It's obvious she truly cares not only for her own dogs but all pets!”
19. Mitchell S.
“I have been close friends with Mitch since we were kids living in the same neighborhood. He is a great guy, and loves dogs! I have two dogs and he has his doggo Mason. Our boys play all the time and get along really well. He is good with dogs and takes them in we go out of town. He is good at working on training during walks and I notice an improvement when I come home and walk him again. 10/10 would recommend to a friend.”
20. Ariel H.
“I left my pup with Ariel for the day while I was in town visiting Niagra Falls. She was great to work with me on the details, and my pup seemed well taken care of!”
