House Sitting in Ottawa

“Julia was absolutely amazing. From the first moment meeting her you could see how much she loves animals. She took great care of our pups, providing updates that really help put our minds at ease. The house was immaculate when we returned. Honestly we could not have asked for more.”

“Melanie cared for our rat terrier, Rosie, for 3 weeks in April, and we are thrilled with the experience! I was nervous because we had never left Rosie with anyone, and for such a long time. Melanie met with me ahead of time to let me & Rosie get comfortable with her -- I knew right away we'd be in good hands, and Rosie adored her from the start! Melanie sent lots of messages and photos every day, and we ended up chatting about everything from food and the weather to my houseplants. She followed my detailed instructions for treats, exercise, and dog food, and left our house spotless, even washed the towels & sheets. We highly recommend Melanie because she is a very responsible dog-sitter, and is truly passionate about dogs. I think Rosie would have gone home with her if she could, they really bonded with all that cuddling! We will ask Melanie to care for Rosie for all future trips.”

“Can’t recommend Zain enough! Zain took care of our old dog and young cat in our home while we were away for 4 days. Our dog is a rescue who was abandoned, and she has anxiety issues in addition to being on several medications and special food. Zain took the time to go over all her meds and food and ensured she got what she needed promptly. She is usually pretty wound up and anxious when we return from a trip, but was calm and happy when we arrived after Zain’s care. Our cat is pretty chill and low maintenance but also seemed content and well cared for. Zain communicated regular updates and sent pictures of our girls. He also left our home immaculately clean, possibly actually cleaner than when we left. Our departure was delayed and we ended up arriving home more than an hour after the agreed upon time. Zain stayed to watch our girls and take our dog for one last walk so that we didn’t come home to a stressed out dog and a mess. We wouldn’t hesitate to rebook Zain and recommend him highly!”

“Kayla took care of my 3 cats for a whole week while I was away in Europe and it went extremely well :) my apartment was extra clean when I came back and my cats also seemed super calm and happy. She also updated me and sent pics once a day (as I requested). I felt that my cats were in great hands. Kayla would definitely be my first choice of cat sitter if I ever go away again.”

“From the time I met Shelley, I knew I would feel completely at ease leaving our dog with her. You can tell right away how much she loves animals. She went above and beyond during the stay, sending updates, and giving our (sometimes needy and quirky) girl lots of attention. I’m so happy to have found Shelley. Next stay is already booked!”

“Rachel is so calm and patient and loving towards my dogs. great interaction she is a perfect for for my anxious Jax.”

“Megan was amazing with our doberman and cat for in home pet sitting. My dog is hesitant when people care for her as she has some separation anxiety, but she was very comfortable with Megan on our meet and greet was I was able to travel without worrying about my pets, they were well taken care of. My dog also gets medication multiple times a day and this was not an issue. I highly recommend Megan for pet sitting.”

“Christine was the first non family person who stayed with our Gigi for 2 nights while we were out of town. She was open to learning about her schedule and followed it to a tee in our home. It was a relief knowing our dog was following her regular schedule in her familiar place. Thx Christine. Can’t wait until the next time.”

“Dana took such good care of not only my dog Bodhi and cat Audrey, but also my home. We had a meet and greet prior to booking, and Bodhi fell in love. I received updates and photos while in Europe, and with the time difference had full confidence Dana could handle everything alone. Thanks for a wonderful experience! The fur babies will be excited to see you again I’m sure!”

“Kandice was great! She was very communicative throughout and I felt very stress free leaving my cat with her. I could tell from the pictures of Bologna that she was very comfortable with Kandice. I would definitely request Kandice's services again.”

“To put it into perspective, when I left for college lexa didn't shed a tear. When she had to depart from her dog for a week, she balled her eyes out. The love that lexa has for dogs is undeniable. Her dog at only a few months old was better trained than my two year old dog. She is a dog whisperer to say the least. She is and forever will be the person I ask to watch my fur baby. She is extremely responsible and trustworthy. 10/10 recommend lexa to walk anyone's dog!”

“Chloe is amazing! She provided us with regular updates and was so great with both our dogs (one of which is slow to warm up). She has a wonderful personality and we trusted her from the get go! Would definitely recommend Chloe!”

“Rebecca did a great job taking care of our quirky little Chihuahua and our home while we were out of town for a week. Cooper was immediately comfortable with Rebecca when she dropped over for our meet-and-greet. As agreed, she texted updates and pics several times throughout the week. We arrived home to a tidy home and a happy and contented pup. Rebecca also texted to ensure that we had arrived home safely, which was much appreciated. We would highly recommend Rebecca to anyone in need of a home/pup sitter.”

“Christina was great with Zoe and very responsive 🙂”

“Melina is a wonderful cat/house sitter. Reliable, attentive, and genuinely caring towards both my home and cat. Kept everything tidy and Korsan happy. Highly recommend for peace my mind while away.”

“Jamie was really great with my dog, Beta! She was very responsive and provided updates throughout the visit. She took great care of my home as well and I came home to a happy pup! Will definitely recommend her and book with her again in the future.”

“She has always loved to care and learn about animals. She used to scour the local libraries (before the internet became as prevalent as it is today) to read about different species, body language, and care. It’s always been her passion to have pets and provide them a safe and loving home.”

“Top notch! Bianca stayed for a week at my place taking great care of my elderly dog. She sent regular updates with pics. I would definitely book again with her.”

“She was very friendly and flexible with my schedule. She always showed up when expected, followed instructions, and my dog always looked forward to walking with her.”
