House Sitting Walkerton

“Briar did an excellent job bonding with my shy spaniel Lita, and what’s more, she managed to help Lita feel safe and entertained with outings and car rides. I’ll certainly rely on her services the next time I have to go out of town.”

“Miles was so great with Kip. He walked him, went lots of pics and took absolutely fantastic care of our house too. Will absolutely book him again.”

About: Hi! My name is Olivia, and I’ve been caring for dogs and animals for as long as I can remember. Growing up around pets gave me a natural love for animals, and over the years I’ve helped care for dogs and cats of all sizes, ages, and personalities. I have experience with walking, feeding, playtime, administering medications, and maintaining each pet’s normal routine to help them feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. What sets me apart is the genuine love and care I give every animal. I treat every pet like family and truly enjoy spending time with them, whether that means long walks, playing fetch, or simply keeping them company in their home. I currently have a very open and flexible schedule while I wait to begin my career as an Emergency Medicine Physician Assistant in late August. Because of this, I’m able to dedicate plenty of time and attention to your pets throughout the day. My flexible availability allows me to accommodate walks, drop-ins, overnight stays, and last-minute scheduling needs whenever possible. I love staying active, so spending time outdoors walking and caring for dogs is something I genuinely enjoy during this transition period before starting work. Providing a safe, loving, and trustworthy environment for pets is my top priority. I understand how important it is to feel confident leaving your pet in someone else’s care, and I always strive to create a calm, dependable, and comfortable experience for both pets and owners. I live in a pet-friendly environment with plenty of safe areas for walks and outdoor time, and I carefully follow each owner’s home instructions regarding routines, medications, feeding schedules, and special needs. I’m attentive, responsible, and communicative, and I’ll always make sure your pet receives the love, attention, and care they deserve while you’re away. 🐾

“Dogs seem to be more comfortable and warming up to Randi on their second adventure with her. They enjoy someone hanging out with them. Very thankful.”

About: As an animal lovers, I promise to treat your pet like my own. They’ll be in good hands with me for the duration of their stay. My dog has a strict routine as I believe taking care of pers works better with a specific schedule. He wakes up, gets fed, gets taken out, is given treats, among everything else at the same time. Every day. I work from home and that makes it easy to adjust our schedule. My dog gets taken out early in the morning and fed. After he then gets taken back out later that morning. In addition, we spend some time outside in the afternoon during lunch. In the evening, he’s fed and taken back out for a bit. Later at night, he’s taken out once more and given a dental treat before bed time.

“Lindy was amazing! They gave us great updates every day on how Laika was doing, and what they were up to everyday. And lots of adorable pictures in which it was clear Laika was having a great time with them. Highly recommend!”

“Michael exceeded my expectations in taking care of my two dogs. Prior to my trip, he came to visit my pups in order to get to know them, observe their behavior, talk about my daily routine, and any special needs. This interaction surely made me feel so much more comfortable in the fact that I could go away and not have to worry about my dogs while being away. I certainly looked forward to his many daily pics and information that he provided to me. In future trips, I will only request Michael because I never had to worry or be concerned about anything. He is definitely a KEEPER and highly recommend him to my family and friends.”

About: I've grown up with pets and was practically raised with my parent's first child, our dog Rascal. I adopt senior and special needs dogs and love giving them a safe haven in their later years. I love to walk my own dog, Wilbur and would treat your pet like my own. I'm currently available on weekends and work from home on Friday so I have the flexiblity to provide daytime potty breaks if needed. I have reliable transportation and am eager to provide care for your fur babies. I have a fenced in yard, and a dog and cat who would welcome meeting new friends. I also have room to create your pet if needed.

“Mindy was amazing especially with my grumpy senior dog. I have never seen Bucky take to a new person so quickly. She sent photos of my dogs on their walks and checked in with me each day. I can not recommend her enough.”

About: I’ve grown up on a farm since I was little. I’m not only experienced with cats and dogs but other livestock that you may also have. I currently work at aylett animal hospital as a kennel assistant. I’m currently working part time as a kennel assistant at animal hospital. So I am pretty flexible with my schedule to fit your sitting needs. I have a fenced in kennel area and two friendly dogs to keep yours company. I can easily crate your dog if needed. . .

“Charlotte took great care of my dog Cher and left the house super clean! She was super patient and understanding of Cher’s leash reactivity which made me feel more confident leaving. She also sent me tons of photos which was so nice because I was missing Cher a lot! Looking forward to hopefully having her stay again sometime. Thanks Charlotte!!!”

“Linda went over and beyond for our pups and us during our get away. We felt very comfortable leaving our babies with her! She was also willing to water our garden and feed our hermit crabs. The house was clean and dogs were happy when we returned! Thank you, Linda!! We hope that you will come back and stay at a later time! Sincerely, Elan and Angela (Oli and Loui)”

“Caitlyn did a wonderful job watching my two dogs. She always responded in a timely manner and kept us updated. Would definitely book with her again!”

“Helena was absolutely AMAZING!!! This was our first time using Rover and the first time we left our dog overnight. She sent us pictures and updates throughout the time we were gone, showing just how relaxed and happy our dog was in her care. When he whined about sleeping in his crate, she kindly let him share the bed with her (with our approval, of course!). He even seemed disappointed when we came home 😉. We cannot recommend Helena more highly!!”

About: I’ve had dogs and cats of all temperaments and types for my entire life. Pet-care is something I take seriously and seriously enjoy! We don’t deserve our animals, so they deserve the best! I’m working part-time from 4am-12pm so my daily schedule is pretty open! I’m comfortable house-sitting if needed or just checking in and caring for your pets, whatever they need! I know how to handle and care for dogs and cats and i’m very open to your requirements or instructions! I try my hardest to make sure they are comfortable, cared-for, and not stressed by my presence.

“Christina did a great job of taking care of our pet family! They were all very healthy and happy when we got home! She was very communicative and sent many pictures which was very much appreciated!”

About: I am open to caring for any and all pets. As someone who currently has 3 Great Pyrenees, an Austrian Kelpie puppy, and other pets, I am experienced in all areas and types. I have open availability to care for pets. I work for myself so build my schedule around jobs and appointments as needed. I am very flexible with accommodations so please reach out if you have any questions. I do not offer overnight in home care at the moment due to all of my pets at home but will gladly stay at your home with your pet. I can send pictures and videos of your pet to you and don't mind cameras in the home so you can drop in any time and see your fur and/or scaly baby.

“This was our first time with Rover, and I could not have asked for a better sitter for our dogs and house. Rochelle made a real and true bond with our two dogs. She made a personal connection with our pups. I want to emphasize that she really cared. Rochelle sent us daily pictures and videos that brought so many smiles to our faces while we were away. Her care took away our separation anxieties. This allowed to relax and enjoy our trip rather worry about how things were at home. If I could give Rochelle more than 5 stars, I would do that.”

“Absolutely amazing with the dogs. Kept us up to date with them and went above and beyond. Would recommend to anyone! Will definitely be hiring again.”

About: I’ve been an animal lover for as long as I can remember, and I have had always had a dog by my side. After having lived on a farm, volunteered at animal shelters, worked at an animal sanctuary, managed multiple dog kennels, as well as taken care of my own pups, I have gained the skill, patience, and passion for working with animals of all shapes, sizes, and backgrounds! From the big snoot of a malamute, to the floppy ears of a beagle, all puppers are welcome in my home! I have a spacious home on a quiet street with a large fully fenced yard for all furry-friends to play in. Working as a dog-care-extraordinaire and being a pet parent myself, my schedule is extremely flexible and I fully understand the worries that accompany putting your pooch in the hands of someone else. All I aim for is giving your fur-child a place that not only they, but you as well, will feel comfortable, safe, and happy with. I’m also human and pet CPR certified! Pet care is my full time job, so my daily schedule revolves around the care of all animals hanging out with me. I make sure to provide plenty of outside time, toy time, park time, and adventure time. So come on grab your friends, because I do have a limited capacity for services! In my home I take pride in offering a clean, welcoming space for the pups staying with me. I have ample beds and toys available, and plenty of treats for those moments when the puppy eyes are just too strong. I strive to cultivate an environment where all dogs can not only feel comfy, but will learn basic manners and learn to build their confidence and social-skills. So end of the day, not only are they coming home tired, but are coming home enlightened. At least we try ;-) Pets outside of the home, I try to offer the same love and attention they would get if their owners were right there with them. Depending on their needs, I try to include activities and accommodations that will brighten their time while you’re away.
