“Caitlin was amazing with Toph! She took the time to set up a meet and greet to make sure that our pooch would be comfortable with her, was incredibly warm and friendly, and kept us updated with text and photos while we were away. As a house-sitter, Caitlin was also wonderful- she left the house better than we did. We are booking Caitlin for another stint immediately, and would recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and thoughtful dog/house sitter.”

“Zara was fantastic with our dogs who are both seniors and require some extra attention. She was great with communication and we can tell our pups we’re happy and very well cared for. We’ll definitely be using Zara again and would recommend her for sure!”

“We were going out into the backcountry for an overnight ski hut trip and Bob was available with little notice to come stay at our place with our dog Moka. He was very punctual, and respectful of our home ? I'd love to have Bob again as a sitter.”

“Kesi helped out over the holidays last minute as another sitter let me down! Kesi was absolutely brilliant with Gio and the house was spotless when we got home. The best sitter I’ve had 😍”

About: I have had all sort of different responsibilities when it comes to animals. I am an only child raised on a farm, primarily with horses, chickens, dogs, and cats. Even the odd wild animal, rescue, or a lost being that needed a helping hand. I have learned from the best when it comes to rehabilitating small to large animals. I am passionate about animal care and I always have been. Dating back to volunteering with the SPCA, then fostering in the later years. I have a lot of knowledge and experience with big dog breeds, and unique needs. I'm currently working part time, so my schedule is adaptive. I do spend my time doing odds and ends helping at the family horse farm. I have rules in my own home for my pets, as everyone does. Typically I crate train in early years and that has been super helpful for me. My experience is primarily with big dogs, stereotyped breeds, and even reactive rescues. Training spot placement, as well as nose utilization for scent training. I want to be able to cater to your pets needs when your not there as best as I can. By trying to stick to the schedule they know. The routes for walks, bathroom, and sniff walks. It Varies per pet.

This is our second time with Caitlin as a dog/house sitter and once again she did a great job. She took wonderful care of our pooch, so much so that our dog didn't really seem to care that we were back. The house was also clean and tidy when we returned, which is a huge relief after a long travel day. Caitlin even painted a lovely portrait of our dog! Caitlin is a gem- I'd strongly recommend her for a house / dog sitter.

We get pretty nervous about leaving our senior pups with someone new but Amanda did an incredible job. Our pups were happy and relaxed when we got home, and we got several photo updates as well. Our house was left in perfect shape as well. Will definitely be having Amanda back the next time we need a sitter!
