1. Jenna G.

“I feel very lucky to have found Jenna and would not hesitate to recommend her to others. She is clearly an animal lover and we were able to meet in person twice before her stay which was reassuring for me. My dog is a senior and my cat very timid and she was happy to cater to their specific needs and keep me updated throughout the week we were away. She was very organized and helped me navigate the process with Rover. Thank you Jenna!”


2. Alyssa V.
“Hey, I’ve known Alyssa quite awhile now and she takes wonderful care of her pets. They are trained well and she takes pride in having them and teaching them new things when she can. If she has the opportunity she would love to have more animals around when she can and she will always give it her all to make sure they are safe and well taken care of. She is a great pet owner and will be great for taking care of others pets too!”


3. Jennifer C.

“Jennifer is wonderful. Very caring and attentive, lots of communication (photos and videos). After one night, our dog wanted to go home with her! Highly recommend.”


4. Breanna L.

“Breanna was excellent! We left her with quite a crew of pets on the day of our daughter’s wedding, and she handled it like the pro she is. We’ll definitely book her again; she’s friendly, great with dogs, arrived on time, and kept the gang of 3 dogs, two cats, and two guinea pigs fed, watered, and loved.”


5. Shelby H.
“Shelby housesat for us for a week while we were away and looked after our cat Belly. She did a fantastic job, sent daily pics, and our cat absolutely adored her. She will be the first person we call when we need another housesitter. Highly recommend!”


6. Lynda R.
“It is my pleasure that I provide a testimonial for Lynda. I have known her for more than 30years and I can say that Lynda is one of the most caring people I know. Her stellar career working with children has proven that she is committed to making sure everyone around her are safe, healthy and happy. That commitment easily extends to include her pets as it is evident their health and happiness is of upmost importance to her. She has been a wonderful mom to her son and many fur babies while I have known her. She has a soft spot for all animals, domestic and wild. The pet owners who use Lynda’s services will find her very friendly, respectful and very responsible. She has an ability to make all people and their pets feel at home and free to be themselves. Lynda loves nature, enjoys walks and she is a lot of fun to be around. I believe she would make a wonderful pet sitter.”


7. Dorinda L.
“We entrusted Dorinda with looking after our dogs Raglan and Boomer and have nothing but good things to say about her service. She is organized and punctual as well as a prompt communicator. She also had a genuine affection for animals which is not always the case. I would consider Dorinda our top choice for pet sitters and would highly recommend her to anyone who wants nothing but the best care for their pets.”


8. Elle M.
“Elle is very good with dogs. She has taken care of our dog, McGuire. She has a comfortable, spacious home with lots of walking paths. She is reliable, outgoing and compassionate. I highly recommend Elle.”
9. Linda V.
“Linda is genuinely an animal lover. She grew up with pets from dogs, cats, hampsters, Guinea pigs and rabbits; and cared deeply for all. She recently lost her boxer to old age but was amazing with her throughout her life. My elderly female cat who is a bit skittish just loves her. I would highly recommend Linda to care for your pet, she is reliable, honest and a caring person.”


10. Judith K.
“I would recommend Judy to care for your cats or dogs. She has taken care of mine when I go away over many years and I am always really pleased with how much attention she pays to them. She’s an animal lover who goes above and beyond with her care and gives me great peace of mind when I’m away. She also communicates well during the time we are away to ensure we are kept up to date on our pets.”


11. Anastasia K.

“Anastasia is great! She’s very patient with my dog, Otis, who can sometimes be anxious and slow to warm up to others. She took the time to make sure he felt comfortable, and they've been great friends ever since. Now, he looks forward to his walks with her.”


12. Mélanie P.


“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.”


13. Stephanie K.
“I would recommend Stephanie to anyone who is looking for reliable and kind person to care for their pets. I would absolutely trust Stephanie with my 2 dogs without any hesitation. She provides a clean, caring environment that gives me a peace of mind knowing that my fur babies are in outstanding hands.”


14. Ryann S.

“Ryann was amazing with the dogs even though they are two new rescues and still working on some things. I got lots of lovely messages and pictures, and I felt secure that our little guys were in good hands. She was also flexible and accommodating when our flight had to be changed last minute. I'll definitely be booking with Ryann again in the future. She's a lovely person who's flexible and great with animals :)”


15. Veda L.
“Veda has been a fantastic cat sitter for our two grey cats, Dorian and Dora. She’s super reliable, communicative, and clearly cares about the animals she looks after. It’s such a relief to know our cats are well taken care of (and probably a little spoiled) when we’re away. We always come home to happy, relaxed cats — can’t ask for more than that. Highly recommend.”


16. Joelhyn K.
About: I’ve been a dog walker and dog sitter since I was about 14 or 15 years old. I started by babysitting and those families entrusted me with their pets while the family was away to care for and clean their dogs and cats. As well as dog walking for some of the older neighbours in my area who couldn’t do it themselves anymore. I’ve taken many different dogs on walks, given them baths, fed them to specific instructions and played with them till the sun went down! Currently working and in school both part time but would love to spend my spare days with your lovely furry friends! I own my own car so getting around is no problem for me! Assuring doors or gates are closed before bringing animals outside & always ensuring collars and leashes are on before going outside and before leaving a clients home. Walking dogs in a safe area and making sure to give them lots of time to walk or run as well as bringing poop bags with me to properly dispose of later on.


17. Becky M.

“Becky is always so reliable and keeps us updated with pics and news on the pets/home. We trust her with our home and are super appreciative having her house sit for us”


18. Jessica T.

“Jessica is next-level amazing! I almost selfishly didn’t write a review because I don’t want people to book her up but she deserves to be recognized for how exceptional she is. Jessica has an impressive background of working with dogs from working at a vet clinic to being a trainer and more, but the biggest piece for me and my Doods has been her educational background in dog behaviouralism. My AussieDoodle has recently become reactive to everything and everyone and my GoldenDoodle lacks confidence and having Jessica around to care for them allows me to fully relax while away. I’m no longer worried that someone else would not be equipped to handle some of the situations that would arise. She is also a natural talent with emotional intelligence and I could instantly see how aware she was of their emotions with just the slightest changes in their behaviour or body language. You can tell how much she cares for animals whilst being super realistic in their growth process and how that can be intertwined into our day to day lives. She is caring and kind to our Doods, but also knows how to behave around dogs who are outputting bad behaviours so as to not make them worse. One very basic example is not giving attention my Doods when they are barking and jump at her when she enters my house. Jessica watched my Doods in my home and spent some time training them and then shared some things that I could continue to help in my journey to reducing their stressors. She even shared some videos on my return so I could see their behaviours when I left them with her so I could finally understand the level of their separation anxiety and could take action to make it better. I feel so lucky to have found such a diamond in the ruff! Thank you Jessica for all of your support.”


19. Danika S.


“Danika is so wonderful! She always stays in contact and leaves my place so clean and tidy when she leaves after overnight stays. And most importantly, she takes such good care of my cat. I highly recommend Danika and hope that more opportunities come to hire her in the near future!”




20. Jason L.

“Jason went above and beyond to take good care of our home and 14 week old English Setter Puppy. Just after committing to a puppy, we had the opportunity to visit France with our daughter, and visit our granddaughter. We really wanted to go, but only if we could find someone super reliable to take great care of a puppy and continue the training we started. Jason came to meet us before we booked him and put our minds at rest. He sent us daily updates during our week in France so we were able to relax and enjoy a wonderful trip. Should you need a pet sitter, and Jason can do it, do not hesitate!”
