“Lesa was amazing with my two pups. They are my babies and both very large breeds. I am very nervous about trusting people with them but as soon as I met Lesa I instantly felt at ease and knew they would be in good hands. Lesa sent a ton of updates and photos/videos and left the house tidy and the dogs well taken care of. Thanks again!”

Highly recommend Lianne!”

“Amazing dependable young man who leaves my home the same as I left it. My dog is very happy and excited to see us, with no temperament change (no trauma at all). I get updates and pics sent throughout the day of all of their activities. You won't be disappointed!”
8. Kreston P.
“Quick and easy service. Our pets were well taking care of and most of all did not have to worry one bit. 10 out of ten would recommend. Very happy with the service.”
9. James M.
“I’ve known James for more than 20 years, all of which have been deeply connected through love of the outdoors and four-pawed canine family members. We’ve toured much of Nova Scotia and New Brunswick, exploring off grid campgrounds, coastal multi-kilometre hikes, and city exploration with our pets in tow. Our lives have always revolved around pet friendly plans, they were never left out, and James would be the man I would entrust with my animals, should I ever need to lean on him. This guy is a top notch dog lover (and a pretty amazing best friend) 10 out of 10, would recommend.”
10. Joel Q.
“Joel and Kim are a wonderful couple filled with so much positive energy. They have nothing but love and compassion with all animals they encounter. Their own pets are always so well behaved and spoiled but very respectful. I would trust them with my pets and would definitely recommend them to all. Yours pets would find nothing but joy with them.”
11. Sophie C.
“Sophie’s patience and love towards animals has been evident for many years. She possesses a big heart and pet care acumen. Anyone can trust that their pet will be in good hands. All pets will receive top notch kindness and attention they consistently need while in her care.”
12. Katrina G.
“Katrina is the only person I trust to watch my fur baby Jersey when I go away. I’ve never met someone who loves and cares for animals the way Katrina does. Katrina is a natural caretaker, and has a big heart for animals. My dog Jersey absolutely adores Katrina and always gets super excited whenever we pull up to Katrina’s house. I wouldn’t trust too many people with my dog, but Katrina I do trust 100%.”
13. Morgan J.
About: I’ve had dogs throughout my life and have always connected well with animals. Responsible, mature adult looking to help out. From big to small, I’ve walked them all. I work from home and have evenings and weekends free. I already have my own dog so what’s another one or two? I have availability during the weekday also if needed. I have a fully fenced back yard and partially fenced driveway. Bedrooms and dining room have doors or gates to keep dogs in main area of house. I also have a vehicle and am able to travel within reason.
14. Cassandra A.
“Cassandra was an awesome sitter for our 3 pups! We had to head out of town at the last minute and we were very thankful she was available. She sent us lots of photos and updates. Wouldn't hesitate to book her again. Thanks Cassandra!”
15. Melanie T.
About: I have experience administering various medications, trimming nails and brushing teeth. I love spending time with pets and teaching them tricks so they can surprise their owners! My current work schedule is flexible, which is suitable for walks or short visits. Sometimes I work late but I love walking and jogging at night. I have a fenced in yard and a catio. I’ve made sure to catify my home. My cats are on a raw wet food diet, which requires keeping a schedule and feeding them several times per day. I love providing a quiet, comfortable and safe environment for pets to come out of their shell. Administering medications, trimming claws, and brushing teeth are never fun, but I’ve learned a few tricks along the way that work with different pet personalities.
