2. Cassie C.

“At first meeting, Cassie asked all the right questions and ensured that she was familiar with our cats and their specific needs. Our home and our pets were well taken care of during our trip away. She sent daily updates with pictures that gave us great peace of mind. We highly recommend Cassie and will be using her again in the future.”


3. Lynda R.
“Lynda has helped look after our poodle. She is a very caring and responsible dog caregiver. She is patient and ensures all of the dogs needs are met. She also has experience caring for dogs that are older and/or have health conditions. I would highly recommend her as a canine caregiver. And we will be requesting her service again in the future.”


4. Jennifer T.

“Linda was awesome, so happy I found a really nice person first time I used this site. I would also use her again without hesitation. Thank you”


6. Dominique C.
“Dominique is a caring, attentive and amazing with pets. Dominique previously owned a beautiful Welsh Corgi, who ended up being diagnosed with diabetes later in her life. Dominique was incredible attentive to her dogs needs, including never missing an insulin shot in the four years her dog had diabetes. Dominique has cared for one of my pets on weekends where I have had to be outside of the city. My cat requires daily medication, and Dominique had no issues administering his medication and making sure he was comfortable. Dominique lives on a beautiful 2+ acre property with lots of room for dogs to run and enjoy the outdoors. I would never hesitate to leave any of my pets in her care.”


7. Taylor L.
“I’ve always had sweet, reliable service with Taylor! I feel reassured when she’s walking my dog, Sterling, and love to see how excited he is to see her for their walks. Your pup will be in good hands with Taylor!”


8. Jenna G.
“When we left town, Jenna looked after our dogs several times. She provided great care, and each time the dogs returned happy and healthy, she provided updates and let us know if anything was out of the ordinary. The dogs were excited to see her each time we dropped them off in her care, both my dogs are a handful, larger breeds with a lot of energy and Jenna has been equipped to handle both. I appreciate all her hard work and care, and I know my dogs are provided for when I am gone, she makes the process worry-free as I know they are in great caring hands.”


9. Michaela T.

“Michaela was on time and had great communication! I booked last minute and she was able to accommodate us. My dogs loved her, she sent me some picture of her playing with them. She also gave me a nice recap of the evening. Would definitely recommend and rebook her again! Thank you!”

15. Sarah W.
“Sarah has been an enormous help with my working gsd Rhea. She has watched her several times while I am out kayaking and is always very attentive to my (over-specific) instructions. Most importantly, Rhea loves her, and she is incredibly patient with her. A 10/10 person who is incredibly responsible.”


16. Carly B.
About: Our home is filled with love - we have one very affectionate doggo and one cat. Personalized care for your pet is no problem at all. Walks can be provided on leash or dogs can be taken to run around at the dog park. If your dog prefers to be alone then we can play in the separate fenced-in area. If you have an elderly or less-active pet we are also more than happy to relax inside. For the time being my availability is set for weekends - and with life being on hold with the pandemic, they are absolutely open and free! Each stay will be customized for your pets needs and preferences. If you have an active pet, we can spend the whole day running around and playing. If your pet is less active, elderly or injured, etc. we can happily relax and just do potty breaks.


17. Nicole R.

“Nicole took great care of our 2 cats while we were away. When our flight was delayed, she also offered additional visits outside of what we had agreed on to ensure their well-being. We will definitely book with Nicole again in the future.”


18. Emily R.

“Rachel took great care of our cats, will be rebooking again.”


19. Elle M.
“I have left my two dogs - 1 miniature pincher and 1 Doberman - with Elle at her home in Lanark. It is a beautiful home in a lovely area and has a great sized dog run. Elle was so accommodating with picking up and dropping off my dogs in Ottawa. My dogs love her and are so happy when they see her!”


20. Tamara B.

“Tamara has had her own dog for ten years now and is a great example of a responsible dog owner. She is very good with her dog as well as other dogs. Trusting someone with your dog (a part of your family) is a big deal for a lot of people, including myself. Having said this, I would trust Tamara with my dog, and would definitely recommend her to become a dog sitter.”
