“Marilyn was fantastic! Great communication, very sweet and kind, and very timely. I would have no hesitation in booking her to watch your pet!”

“Mylène took great care of Obi and our home while we were away for a week! She was very careful about his meals (both the timing and the content) to help keep him on his normal schedule. He is a Springer Spaniel so he requires a lot of physical activity and she took him for long walks and hikes almost every day. Communication throughout was fast and clear, and she sent us daily updates with photos. When we got home, Obi was happy and healthy and our house was in great shape. Mylène is very trustworthy and we would certainly book again!”

About: Je suis une personne douce, responsable et attentive aux besoins des animaux. J’ai un grand respect pour leur bien-être et je prends le temps de comprendre leur personnalité, qu’ils soient joueurs, timides ou très énergiques. Patiente et fiable, je veille à leur sécurité, à leur routine et à leur confort, tout en leur offrant mon affection et ma présence. M’occuper de chiens et de chats n’est pas seulement une tâche pour moi, c’est un engagement sincère et un plaisir quotidien Je travaille actuellement à temps partiel, ce qui me permet d’avoir une grande flexibilité dans mon horaire. Mes journées sont bien organisées et me laissent plusieurs plages libres en matinée, en fin d’après-midi et en soirée. Je suis également disponible les fins de semaine selon les besoins. Cette stabilité me permet d’offrir une présence attentive et régulière aux chiens et aux chats dont je m’occupe, que ce soit pour des promenades, des visites à domicile ou des gardes plus longues. J’ai un grand jardin et une maison avec deux étage et un sous-sol. Cependant je donne priorité à garder les animaux dans leur environnement et ainsi interagir avec eux en sécurité.

“Emily et Nicholas ont été des gardiens absolument remarquables. Ils se sont occupés de mes animaux avec beaucoup d’attention, y compris de mon jeune chien de grande taille qui demande des sorties régulières et une bonne dose d’énergie. Tout s’est déroulé à merveille : ils ont su gérer son rythme, ses besoins et lui offrir une présence rassurante. En plus de cela, ma maison était impeccable à mon retour. Ils ont fait preuve de sérieux, de respect et d’un grand sens des responsabilités. Je me suis sentie en totale confiance du début à la fin. Je les recommande sans hésitation à quiconque cherche des gardiens fiables, attentionnés et professionnels.”

About: I’ve always had dogs in my life, and I truly love animals. I share a special connection with dogs — they quickly feel calm and happy around me. What sets me apart is not just the loving care I provide, but also the environment: a large, comfortable home and direct access to the forest for hikes and outdoor adventures. Your dog won’t be left alone often. Whether I’m going to the grocery store, running errands, or heading to the park, your pup comes along for the ride. They’re part of my daily life and routines, just like my own dog would be. I’m calm, caring, and fully present with the dogs I watch. From active pups to senior companions, I adapt to their needs to make sure they feel safe, loved, and fully included — at home or on the go. Pet care is a big part of my daily life — and I wouldn’t have it any other way. Whether I’m at home, running errands, or going out for a hike, pets are part of my routine and come along whenever it’s safe and possible. I spend most of my time at home or in nature, which makes it easy to provide lots of attention, playtime, and companionship. My days are flexible, so I can adapt to each pet’s schedule — from regular walks and mealtimes to cozy downtime and cuddles. Taking care of pets doesn’t interrupt my routine — it is my routine. At my home, pets are treated like family. They have full access to the house, cozy places to rest, and plenty of playtime and attention throughout the day. We go on daily walks in the forest right behind the house, and if I need to go out for errands or activities, they often come with me — safely and comfortably. They’re never left alone for long, and I always prioritize their comfort and happiness. If I’m visiting pets in their home, I make sure to follow their usual routine to keep things familiar and stress-free. I take the time to connect with them, give them the care and attention they need, and make sure everything is clean and safe before I leave. Whether at my place or theirs, I always treat pets with the same love, patience, and respect as I would want for my own.

About: I’ve had pets my whole life. Currently with a cat and wanting a dog for years now, but waiting for the right moment. I’d love to take care of your animal, play with them and give them love. I work from home, I have my own business, I am home everyday. I can make my schedule around yours and your pet’s needs. My Saturdays are often busy, but still possible to arrange. I live in a house in the forest with a grassy backyard, garden beds and a nice short hike with a stunning view 10 minutes from the house, it’s a great walk for dogs. There are other friendly dogs in the neighborhood.

“Manon a pris grand soin de Boogie, elle lui a appris des nouveaux tours, a tenté d'améliorer sa réactivité et elle a joué avec lui. Manon a aussi administré les médicaments et a fait vivre des belles nouvelles expériences à Boogie. Dès qu'on la rencontre, on voit qu'elle a le tour avec les chiens et qu'elle les adore ! Nous avons reçu des nouvelles et des photos pendant notre voyage ce qui a été très apprécié. J'ai été en confiance avec Manon, elle est d'une spontanéité accueillante et déborde d'énergie. Et elle est aussi très respectueuse de la maison, à notre retour c'était impeccable! Merci Manon!”

About: I am used to take care of dogs since I was a child. My family and friends let me in charge of them everytime they need. I have taking care of all kind of breeds in Colombia and Canada. I work from home with a flexible schedule that allows me to take them outside several times a day. I will be capable to stay next to them the whole time assuring they play and walk as they pleased or need. We don't have any pets at the moment, all our love will be just for yours. They always have a comfortable space to lay down and rest as they need. I live in a big open space that allow me to watch them with care. I am used to take care of pets and babies, always been aware of the silent and mysterious moments (lol)

About: I’ve had dogs since I was born and always had a passion for dogs and animals in general. They are literally all treated like royalty :) I work full time remotely. That allows me to always be available for day walks and to supervise them and be available whenever the dog is in need of anything. My work is very flexible so I can play with the dog even during the day and not leave them alone I have a fenced yard and live close to a few parks. I never send the dogs out alone as I am always there to supervised, even if fenced areas
