“Serenity is the most wonderful sitter! Not only does she lavish my cat with love and affection and send lots of photos and anecdotes, but she also stepped and went completely above and beyond when an unexpected situation arose. I cannot recommend her enough!”


“We booked with Paula for our first ever dog drop-in visits and are so glad we did. Paula, gave continual and great updates (with pictures), of the dogs schedule and visits. The pups looked very happy. When we got home, our house was still very tidy- as she cleaned up after our pets. We recommend Paula and will book with her again. Thank you!”

“Emma was great! She was available with very short notice and communicated throughout. I was in a bind and she saved the day. Highly recommend and will definitely use her in the future!”
“This was the first time I had ever used this kind of service for our cat. I was nervous about a stranger coming into my home and taking care of him. I struck gold booking with Tess. She was amazing and truly helped make the entire experience a positive one ! The care and compassion Tess showed was comforting for us, and it was the little things she did that meant so much. Tess took that extra step ensuring our cat was happy !”

“I have older cats. One has been timid since day one, so it is hard to leave them for extended times. Alexandria has been a godsend, and the scared cat now waits for her at the door. My deaf, diabetic cat gets the care he needs, making extended work trips manageable. I highly recommend her.”

“Jessica agreed to meet ahead of time to make sure she was comfortable with my dog Bailey and to learn the tips and tricks of the house. She showed up on time for both walks and sent me lots of pictures of Bailey during the day. I would recommend Jessica”


“Words cannot express my gratitude for June. She graciously accommodated a last minute booking for my post-op pup. Then there was a snaffu with my profile which put her out. June was quick to contact me and was overly accommodating to make sure my pup got the care she needed. All while maintaining such a positive and caring disposition. My pup also gives her ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ for the cuddles and exceptionally cute dog photo skills!”


About: Our family has had one or two cats for the last 18 years and so I love to make a kitty feel at home when possible! I am a stay at home mom with ample free time during the week to accommodate pets in my nearby area for walks or more! I will treat your pets as I do my own. With love and respect . I have a big backyard, not fenced however I am super careful about keeping my eyes on the dogs.
“Kendra bonded with our skittish rescue puppy immediately. She is always on time and provides updates when necessary. Her availability is always updated and scheduling is a breeze.”

“Michelle was wonderful with our cat while we were away internationally. She was reliable, communicative, and her thoughtful updates and photos gave us real peace of mind while traveling. It was clear our cat was comfortable and well cared for. We would absolutely book with Michelle again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and attentive cat sitter.”

About: I have had pets the majority of my life! Dogs, cats, hamsters, fish, you name it! I have always been an animal lover, I will try to pet anything! I treat every animal with kindness I do work full time, however I have a lot of time off during the week. My schedule is 12 hour shifts so it gives me time off on days most people have to work I approach all animals calmly and always tell them how good they are and how loved they are. They are definitely part of the family!
About: I have been taking care of dogs since I was 6 years old , I remember how scared I was when I met my first dog , his name was sultan and honestly he was the one who took care of me and after that my love for them just expanded and still every time I see a dog I fall in love them . I work part time so so you can leave your loved one with me at nights or afternoons and for mornings we can figure something out . Note - there will be an additional charge depending on the distance I have to travel to get to your house.(estimate $6-8 for short distances) I work part time , so I am mostly home I usually take a one dog at a time unless your pet is comfortable with other pets. Before we book I prefer doing a meet and greet where we can talk and arrange something that meets your needs. I currently don’t have any pets of my own here , but I have an immense love for animals especially dogs , I live in a townhouse with a back yard where we can play and we can visit the nearby parks or trails if that’s what you want for your loved one .

Samantha is a fantastic cat sitter! They were reliable, attentive, and great with our two cats. The regular updates and photos gave us peace of mind while we were away. Both cats seemed very happy and relaxed when we returned. Highly recommend and would book again!

Serenity took fantastic care of my cat Cater while my fiance and I were away for 9 days. This was our first time having someone outside of family take care of him, so we naturally wanted the best care possible. Thankfully Serenity fulfilled that and more. Her communication and care was excellent, resulting in a stress free trip due to her care. Next time we go away it will be a no brainer to have her come care for Carter again! If I could give 6 stars I would!

Michelle was wonderful with our cat while we were away internationally. She was reliable, communicative, and her thoughtful updates and photos gave us real peace of mind while traveling. It was clear our cat was comfortable and well cared for. We would absolutely book with Michelle again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and attentive cat sitter.

Kim was amazing with Penelope. Will definitely request her again. Kim is confident and calm. Perfect for Penelope. Kim gave us feedback each day with photos. We know that P was happy with Kim, and P is very particular! They got into a wonderful routine quickly. Please consider Kim for your pet care needs. She is a wonderful person to care for your beloved pet!! Thank you Kim!!

Thank you Clarissa for coming to my aid Saturday morning when I needed to book a last minute service to check in on our 3 dogs because our first rover had ended and our flight got cancelled Saturday. We got home late on Sunday night. I will definitely use her services again for regular walking and check ins. Hopefully no more emergencies and only planned visits. Thanks again.

This was our second time returning to Michelle as our preferred sitter for our cats. She was just as amazing as the first time. Michelle's multiple photos and frequent updates on their behaviour gave us a lot of comfort and confidence in her ability to watch our cats. We highly recommend Michelle as a sitter / watcher for your pets. Thank you again, Michelle
Taylor was hired to check in and hang with my cat for a few days. She came over ahead of time for a meet and greet and was attentive and thoughtful, asking all about my cat and the things she liked. Over the course of the few days she did drop in visits, she gave me great updates, sent photos and took great care of my cat. She was super helpful, even asking if I needed my plants watered. I would most definitely hire Taylor again and refer her to anyone looking!
