“I can’t say enough positive feedback with our experience with Katrina and her family! She sent us lots of pics and videos during his stay which was great. My Great Dane/ English Mastiff had amazing stay! He was well taken care of and given the attention he loves. He has some separation anxiety but with the kindness Katrina gave him he was right at ease. Will 💯 use Katrina again 😊”
“Never having left our dog with someone we hadn’t known before, I was fairly nervous. But Joseph and Tina were great. Very loving and attentive to our dog who loves attention. Our dog was a bit mopey today….i think he misses them. I highly recommend this couple.”
About: I have loved animals my entire life. I have taken care of many different types of animals since I was very young. Horses, dogs, cats, guinea pigs, rabbits and birds. I have raised and trained two Working Line German Shepherds from puppies, with whom I have trained and competed with in high level obedience. I understand what it takes to have well trained, happy and genetically fulfilled dogs. I am actively going to training seminars and constantly expanding my knowledge. I have worked part time as a dog trainer teaching pet obedience classes. I have also taken online dog training courses, emergency dog first aid and raw fed nutrition courses. My day starts by making sure my dogs needs are met. They are fed, walked, stretched and trained daily. They are groomed multiples times throughout the week and participate in fun activities like tracking, obedience, dock diving and swimming weekly. When your dog boards with me, on our farm, they will be treated with the outmost love, care and respect. I would treat your best friend as I treat my own dogs. They will have access to 5 acres to explore and rest in a peaceful, relaxing environment.
“Gina and her family took great care of our Toby - many updates of him having a great time playing and getting snuggles. I’m not sure he wanted to come home :) Thank you so much Gina!”
About: Our daughter would like to take the lead. She is new to pet sitting but has a way with all animals. Mom has dog and cat sitting experience from before kids and also had a dog growing up. We are mostly available for weekend jobs. With notice we can usually work a Monday or Friday in. We are open to weekday stays but we work out of the house so it’s a long day for the animals in the house. We have a fenced yard and are open to crate trained or free range animals. Your animals will become part of our family during their stay.
“Teresa, treated Coltrane like part of the family. She kept us updated with pictures of their hikes, dog play and big sleeps. Coltrane returned to us happy and settled. She put our hearts at ease.”
“Jackie was absolutely incredible with our GSP, who has very high energy levels. She took him on long hikes and spoiled him with love and attention. She went way above and beyond what any other dog sitter would have done and we highly recommend Jackie for taking care of your fur babies!”
“Gail took great care of my dog - she sent photos and updates throughout my dog's stay with her. It was clear to me that she prioritized my dog's safety and that she enjoyed spending time with my dog.”
“Tamara did a great job with Fitz and kept me updated while on my trip. Very accommodating and gave him a lot of love! Made it easier to enjoy the trip and now know someone in the area who can watch him! Thanks again, Tamara!”
“Lisa was truly amazing. She was kind, welcoming , so attentive to my little ones and just an overall joy to interact with. She kept me well updated with photos and videos and she did so shortly after drop off. I’m often very nervous leaving or trusting my dogs with anyone but she was definitely the best choice I could ever make!”
“Cassie was amazing. We got regular updates on our dog. The kids were so good with our dog as well. They treated our dog like he was a part of their family. Cassie is super responsive and lovely.”
“We loved having Sarah here to look after our cat Hannie. When we got home Hannie was very happy and Sarah kept the house spotless. She really bonded with Hannie and we are so grateful to her for looking after our beloved pet for us for the Easter weekend. I .Highly recommend her to anyone who needs somebody who’s really loving to look after their beloved cat.”
“Leesa was absolutely amazing with our golden retriever, Moose! From the moment we met her, it was clear she genuinely loves dogs and takes great pride in caring for them. She kept us updated with photos and messages, which gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. Moose came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. It’s obvious he received lots of attention, exercise, and affection during his stay. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and reliable to look after your dog, I can’t recommend Leesa highly enough.”
“Wesley had an amazing time with Audrey and Alex! They sent me pictures every day, and told me what they were up to which was very nice. It seems like they took him everywhere! When I picked him up he was happy and relaxed. They are also lovely to coordinate with and very accommodating. I would definitely ask them to take care of Wesley again! Thank you guys!”

“Brianne was wonderful taking care of my puppy for three nights. She gave updates everyday and was able to spend one on one time with her everyday. It was Harleys first time away from me and she had a great experience! I don’t hesitate to recommend Brianne for anyone’s fur babies ❤️”
About: I am an active & very mobile lady who can offer various types of walks from leisurely to high energy, rain or shine. On leash is preferred but for well trained dogs I will consider off leash. Pick up and drop offs are available for one hour walks. Your dog/s should be dog friendly but if not then I will work with you so your fur baby can have the best experience possible. I can administer medication. As a responsible, skilled, current small dog owner, and former two large dogs & cat mom, your animals will be treated with lots of compassion and love.

“Highly recommend! Tamara was so attentive with perfect care for our two dogs. I could tell both Sonny & Bosun were having a blast from the pictures she sent. If we ever visit this area again would definitely re book!”
“Marcella was fantastic! She took my little dog on short notice and I felt comfortable with her right away. Her home is beautiful, welcoming, and clearly set up with dogs in mind. Her dog Winston is incredibly sweet and friendly, and was great with my little guy from the moment they met. It’s obvious she genuinely loves dogs and has lots of experience with them. I wouldn’t hesitate to leave my pup with her again and will definitely be using her services in the future.”

About: Hello, my name is Teresa and I'm dog walker who is Walks and Wags Certified with Pet First Aid. I've also taken International Academy of Canine Trainers Certified Professional Dog Walker program. I'm an animal lover and have had pets all of my life. I especially love dogs of all shapes and sizes and am looking forward to taking care of your dog either as a dog walker or just for home visits to play and make sure that he/she is fine while you are at work. I'm happy to visit both young puppers and more senior doggos - as we all know your dog is the 'best dog ever' and I'm happy to treat your dog like my own! Looking forward to meeting you and your pet!

About: We had a beautiful Golden Retriever 2013-2025 who went everywhere with me and was never left alone. I loved being with him, caring for him and other friends pets, walking, brushing, veterinary drop offs and collections as well as caring for elderly dogs too. I love all dogs. Will be with the dogs all day in my home and we have beautiful trails right at our doorstep for quick walks or longer hikes. Happy to be slower if dogs are older or small or longer if they have lots of energy. I work from home so pets would never be left alone, I have set up my work to fit in with caring for our own pet as a priority. Have looked after our own dog and walked 4-5 times daily with shorter potty breaks and longer excercise trips for 12 years. I have no fenced yard but have a provincial park and walking trails directly at my door so walking is never a problem. My own golden retriever will go outside for a variety of mini walks and a longer walk daily or we can take the car to other parks if requested.

“Absolutely lovely couple. Prompt, professional, and they very obviously love what they do. They'll be watching our dog over the holidays, so we'd set up some walks beforehand to get the dog comfortable with them. When he came home, I thought he was going to try to leave with them! Highly recommended.”
“We were very happy with our experience! Our dog was clearly comfortable, well cared for, and genuinely happy during their stay. Morgon's communication with us was great with regular updates and photos. We would absolutely book again and highly recommend her.”

Pocket pets enjoy their own room and birds are upstairs with outdoor lookout.
