“Ethan and Flo took on our high energy, deaf, part bengal, adventure cat with enthusiasm and expertise. The daily updates with pictures showed just how much fun he was having with them on bike rides and walks. We have never felt so comfortable leaving him with anyone before. They are kind, remarkably responsive, easy to communicate with and pay lots of attention to details. We came home to a very happy cat and a spotless house. Best pet sitting experience ever!”
“Courtney did a great job looking after our two dogs. She was easy and quick to communicate with and sent us pictures of our pups while we were away. We will definitely book her again in the future!”
“Rosa was amazing! Arrived on time She got my anxious dogs out and walking, and earned their trust quickly! Lots of vids and pix sent provided comfort for me seeing my fur babies were doing good. I have no reservation to have Rosa back!”
“Zara was a meticulous and caring house and pet sitter. She managed our sometimes challenging Husky with gracious patience and calm. Our cat bonded quickly with her, the house was spotless when we returned and yard waste all picked up as requested. An absolutely wonderful experience and it made our trip that much better knowing the pets were in such competent hands.”

About: As a pet parent and animal lover, I have always had a passion for caring for animals. Throughout my life, I have had the opportunity to care for a variety of pets, including dogs, cats, birds, and even reptiles. This has given me a wide range of experience in pet care and has allowed me to develop a deep understanding of the needs and behaviours of different animals. I understand that pets are not just animals, but they are members of the family, and I will treat them as such. I am committed to providing the best possible care for every pet under my watch. This includes following any specific instructions given by the pet's parent/s, maintaining a safe and clean environment, and giving their loved ones plenty of love and attention. I currently work 8:30-3:30 in Beasley Wednesday-Sunday. I can provide care outside of those hours. I am available for pet/house sitting, walking, and drop-in visits. As a pet sitter, my top priority is always the safety and well-being of the pets in my care. I take every precaution to ensure that they are safe and secure at all times..
About: I would be a dog whisper, letting them know I am on their side and it will be safe with me. Playing with the pups and taking great walks with them. I will let them receive plenty of fresh air and plenty playing time when necessary. I would make sure the pups are well fed and dehydrated. I will understand the pups needs and make sure to help the pups in there needs as well. I have gained experience over the years while training my own family pups and taking care of my friends pups. The most recent care I have done was for a friend and I always took her pup for a walk around and the pup really liked to outside with me. I will keep the pet on a strict routine based off their owners instructions, if none instructions are given, the pet will be in my embrace at all times and well taken care of. I will assure that the pets have their personal space and privacy from my pets as long as they choose to play with each other.
