“We had a wonderful experience with our dog sitter! She kept us updated throughout our time away with messages and photos, which really gave us peace of mind. It was clear our dog was getting lots of love, attention, and long walks. You can tell she genuinely cares about the pets she looks after. Highly recommended—we’ll definitely be reaching out to her again!”
“Maria and Ryan are amazing! Our cockapoo struggles with separation anxiety but felt comfortable and right at home being with Maria and Ryan, they took him on several walks, and made sure he was well looked after. We will definitely be using them again, and would highly recommend them- they’re clearly dog lovers!”
“The cats came home happy and relaxed - the space available to them was spacious and bright with lots for them to see and do. Jeanette and family are lovely and we felt very comfortable leaving the cats with them. Highly recommend!”
“Mariel and Bram went above and beyond to take care of our puppy while we were gone! We knew that he was having a great time through all of the updates and photos Mariel and Bram sent us each day of our Winnie's stay! Communication was amazing and the next time we need boarding, Mariel and Bram will be our first choice!”
“Sara was amazing! Arnie loved his time with her, they played, went to the park, went on several walks and Sara provided many updates throughout the visit which we really appreciated. Highly recommend Sara and will be sending Arnie back next time we’re out of town.”
“We’re extremely happy with how everything went. Even though it was just a short trip, they put in a lot of effort. It was clear to us that they truly love dogs and have plenty of experience. They were very communicative throughout, sending regular updates and lots of great pictures. Five out of five stars for sure!”

“Paula is an amazing dog sitter! She recently watched our puppy for a full week, and we couldn’t be happier with the care she provided. She is reliable, attentive, and truly goes above and beyond to make sure our pup is happy and safe.

I highly recommend Paula to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and loving to care for their pets!”

“Allen looked after my dog for 10 days, and he was absolutely wonderful! Thanks to his amazing care, I could completely focus on my work without a single worry. Allen is incredibly nice and genuinely loves taking my dog out for walks. He kept me updated the entire time, letting me know what my dog was doing and eating, which gave me great peace of mind. I especially loved the photos he sent—my dog looked so incredibly happy and comfortable in every single one of them. I will definitely be leaving my dog with Allen again in the future. Highly recommended!”

Hongxiang provided such a great home for our two dogs, they came home really happy and seemed to have had such a great time. She sent us regular videos and pictures, was available for questions and really took care of them including administering medication for our older dog. Would 100% recommend.
Adam and Rover proved a wonderful find for us and our Schnauzer Gucci as we travelled out of the country for 2+ weeks. Gucci felt right at home as there was another Schnauzer to hang out with and lots of affection from the resident humans. Having daily reports and photos was a real plus. We would definitely recommend this as a dog care site.
Jeongah and her boyfriend were incredible dog sitters. They sent us so many photos and videos and provided Becky with lots of love and affection. It truly felt like she was part of their family. They are very responsible and I would recommend them to anyone looking for reliable and loving care 🥰
We left our dog Anaya with Rebecca for 3 nights and were very satisfied with the experience. Anaya seemed very happy and comfortable with Rebecca when we picked her up, which gave us a lot of peace of mind. Rebecca was very responsive, easygoing, and great to communicate with throughout the stay. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for pet boarding, and we will definitely be rebooking with her in the future!
Kasha & James ask for a meet & greet before accepting a booking, which helps ensure everyone is feeling comfortable. They sent a ton of great pictures and videos showing my boy having a great time. You can always tell by how comfortable the dog is when you pick him up, and he was so relaxed when I came to take him home!
Barbara was absolutely amazing with my dog. From the very beginning, she was warm, attentive, and clearly experienced. She kept me consistently updated with photos and videos, which gave me real peace of mind while I was away. Definitely a great person to trust
Mariel and Bram went above and beyond to take care of our puppy while we were gone! We knew that he was having a great time through all of the updates and photos Mariel and Bram sent us each day of our Winnie's stay! Communication was amazing and the next time we need boarding, Mariel and Bram will be our first choice!
Saba took excellent care of Harper for the weekend! She was very easy to communicate with, kept me updated, and sent photos throughout the stay which I really appreciated. Harper came home happy and well cared for. I’d definitely bring Harper back and would highly recommend Saba to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter.
We feel incredibly lucky to have found Anna during our time in Calgary. She responded right away to our request and stayed wonderfully communicative throughout, which immediately put us at ease. Because of her, we were able to enjoy dinner out and explore parts of the city that simply wouldn’t have been possible with Scout — and we never once worried about how she was doing. What truly stood out was how deeply and genuinely she cared for Scout. It didn’t feel like hiring a sitter; it felt like leaving her with someone who treats animals with the same love, intuition, and attentiveness she gives her own little “zoo.” The updates from the dog park were full of joy and personality, and it was clear Scout was not just safe, but genuinely happy — especially with her new buddy, Oreo. On top of her amazing care, Anna went above and beyond by sharing so many thoughtful local recommendations that made our stay even better. Her insights helped us discover places and experiences we wouldn’t have found on our own, and we appreciated that generosity more than she knows. Anna is calm, observant, experienced, and truly exceptional. We’re so grateful for her kindness and care, and we wouldn’t hesitate to book her again.
