With five-star reviews across the board, you can be sure that your furry friend will be well taken care of with their staff. They offer 1-night, 10-night, and 20-night packages, with photos and updates upon request and endless cuddles for your dogs.

We Wag Toronto

Located in Leslieville, We Wag Toronto offers pet-sitting services for dogs and cats, at the sitters’ homes or yours. Since they don’t operate as a kennel, their qualified sitters only accept two dogs per home to ensure each pet receives the care and attention they deserve. You can also opt for their sitters to stay in your home where your pet is most comfortable, and they are happy to do small side chores during their stay such as bringing in your mail and watering your plants.
