Chris has been amazing to work with. He is very attentive to our cat Cooney and leaves a very detailed summary after each visit. I had to make a few last minute changes to the original schedule days and he accommodated with no issues. Took lots of pictures and videos to keep us updated, and was very responsive.

Frank makes sure to look after his own dog and makes sure to entertain any other dog he encounters. Frank is aware all the time of what is happening around the pups, including vigilance around what they are sniffing and trying to eat stuff off the ground. Frank is friendly, and shows his care for every pup he comes into contact with.

This was my first time working with Michele, and she was amazing! She was punctual, reliable, and communicated effectively with me. She gave my shy senior cat the time and space he needed to get comfortable with her, allowing him to warm up to her much quicker than he typically does with new people. I enjoyed hearing about how their check-ins were going, and Michele was very receptive to trying new tips and tricks I'd share along the way to help win his affection. I know I can trust my cat with Michele, and I will definitely be requesting her services again in the future!

Estela has such a huge heart especially when it involves animals. She's is so caring and loving to every animal. If she had a farm she would take in all stray animals because she loves animals. Her heart makes her go above and beyond when taking care of animals she will follow the animals routine since she knows that is important for an animal. She will for sure snuggle your animal if your animal is a smuggler but will give it it's space when needed. If you choose Estela you won't be disappointed.

About: I love animals and have been my friends and family's go-to pet sitter for as long as I can remember dubbing me their favorite aunt! Whether it's a tiny kitten or a Great Dane like my best friend's dog, Cleo, I've watched a variety of pets with lots of love and care. Being raised on a farm provided me with a heartfelt connection to animals as well as a thorough understanding of the responsibilities of caring for them. Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priority during their stay. You can rest assured they will receive the same love, attention, and care as they do at home. I'm currently working part-time, so I have plenty of time and days off during the week as well as weekends to take care of your pups! During their stay, your pet's safety and comfort are my top priority. I will play with and give them attention when they seek it, and respect their need for space when they want to be alone. I will also provide excellent care to whatever needs they may need.

Licco has been dog-sitting my 2 dogs several times in the past three years. Her place has a backyard with grass which is very convenient for my pups (they only go 💩on grass 😂). Licco is sweat and both of my pups like her. They seems comfortable and happy whenever they see her. I would trust Licco with my dogs and recommend her to any dog parents that are looking for a trustworthy dog sitters.

Highly recommended and definitely will book her again.

Kessling was amazing taking care of my 2 cats! One of them unfortunately has oral cancer and now is on wet food while my other cat is still also eating dry kibble. She was able to take care of then and meet their needs and also able to give pain meds to my cancer baby. Definitely appreciate her!

Jazmin did a great job taking care of my 2 year old Shih Tzu mix whenever I am out of town. She is responsible when taking him on his walks as well as providing him his meals at a timely manner. My dog is always excited when dropping him off which shows that they have build a strong connection with each other.

About: I've cared for dogs since I was around 10-11 years old. I love animals and, with time, have done my best to provide for my dogs and others. I have cared for my friend's dog for about two years and give him the same love and care as my dog of 10 years. I have taken care of puppies my dog has had and raised them well enough to be healthy for adoption. I notice small details about my dogs and will do the same for yours in case of a difference in behavior. I just graduated university and am available whenever for your pets needs! I am flexible and will give the best care I can for your lovely pets. Caring for pets in a client's home means respecting their space while still carrying out the tasks needed for their pet. I will do my best to clean any messes that are pet-related and if the pet is to be placed in a crate, I will do just that.
