1. Jenna R.

“Jenna was great. She accepted to take our Oscar for walks on quite a short notice. She shared pictures and the dog was very happy on these. She communicated well at every step of the process. I will definitely work again with Jenna in the future and will recommend her services to anyone.”


2. Karen M.

“Buddy does really well with Karen. We’ve discovered he has some separation anxiety when “he” leaves the house & that’s why Buddy will only go so far. He actually walk the trusts Karen & walks farthest over all of our family. Now that he marks his different paths with her, he can check out more places so that is awesome.”


3. Kelsie A.

“Amazing job!!”


4. Erica M.

“My dog loves Erica so much. He actually smiles like the joker face in all the pics. He rolls on his back, belly up smiling ear to ear in the fields and fluffy powdery snow of the year. I wish he smiled this much for our walks. This tells me that he has a special bond and each morning before I leave for work I say her name and he knows today is going to be the best.”


5. Kaleigh S.

“It’s obvious from Kayleigh’s reports that she really takes the time to get to know the dogs in her care. She brings Fitz to some of his favourite places and he’s so happy and spent at the end of the day. She really cares about their experiences :)”


6. Jessica L.

“She is great with my dog! Qwyn is SO happy for their outings.”


7. Ellen O.
“Ellen is the best! She’s so great with my dog, who has a lot of energy. Ellen takes her for long walks, to the park, and continuously plays with her.”




8. Craig S.
“Craig has been a dog owner for several years and always outs the needs of his dog before himself. He has cared for my dog when I have been out of town and I am always confident that my pooch is in safe reliable hands.”


9. Ben C.

“Highly recommend Ben. Thanks again!”

About: I love all pets- big and small. I grew up around horses and had family dogs from a young age. Since moving to the city, I adopted a senior cat who has quickly become a spoiled companion. My pets are my family, and I intend to treat yours no differently. I am willing to cater to specific needs and I look forward to meeting your furry friend! Please reach out if you have any questions :) I currently have a very flexible schedule. I am available during weekdays, weekends, and evenings. If this changes in future, I will update my calendar and provide adequate notice. I am unable to care for pets in my home, however, when in public or at a client's home, I value your pet's safety to a high degree.


11. Emma C.
“Emma is the BEST! She has watched both my dog and cat on multiple occasions and They love her! She will always be my go to pet sitter! Highly reccomend! :)”

About: My husband and I have had pets together for more than 20 years and our children have grown up with these animals their whole lives. We are trying to raise our teenagers to be responsible, hard-working men. With few job opportunities and busy school and extra-curricular activities, we thought why not help them turn their love for animals into a learning opportunity. Currently we have a 1.5 year old Siberian Husky (intact) and two 8-10 year old cats. All are up-to-date on vaccinations. We can offer dog-walking (with or without our dog tagging along), check-ins, house-sitting (your home or potentially our, depending on the pet). If you have special training needs or things to work on, we will do our best to accommodate. Our schedule is quite flexible. My husband and I work full-time (days), with some days being work-from-home. Our sons, aged 14.5 and almost 16. Are home during the daytime for the summer. We have a daughter (almost 4 years old); she loves animals and is respectful of them. We have a large fenced yard in a quiet neighborhood. Our house is 2 stores and animals can be separated into smaller areas if ever needed. Pets would not be left unattended at any time while at our house.


13. Nipuni M.

“NIpuni is great ! Was great with my dog , and he is high energy , was punctual and great communication! Would highly recommend 😊”




14. Courtney M.

“Courtney is fantastic. She is reliable, punctual, and genuinely cares for my pups. I highly recommend her to anyone in need of a trustworthy and caring dog walker!”


15. Leah B.

“Leah is great with my boy Odin. He can be a handful sometimes, but Leah does great with him!”


16. Carl D.
“My partner and I had Carl come live at our apartment and look after Fig, our two year old Lab for four days/nights. He provided amazing care, made sure she had tons of love and exercise and even sent photos of how happy she was to be out and about. Cannot think of someone who care for dogs like Carl. Thanks to him, we were able to fully enjoy our time away knowing Fig was in capable hands.”


17. Naomi H.

“Naomi really helped me out with getting my dogs exercised and giving them some love on a day when I was working long hours! She was very communicative and thoughtful. I’d be happy to have rebook with her in the future!”


18. Brooklyn M.

“Brooklyn was great with Finn and very accomodating on such short notice....he really liked her and I appreciate the walk.....”


19. Josie S.
About: I've taken care of three different types of medium and large dogs in my family as I've grown up. One was a German shepherd/husky mix, another was a terrier/Shih Tzu mix, and my current dog is a black Labrador retriever. I have come to understand just how much of a responsibility comes with being a dog owner ever since I was little, so I know it's not always just a walk in the park (pun intended). I am experienced with both senior dogs and puppies, and am extremely attentive in order to cater to their needs. Safety is always a priority to me as well as properly maintained communication between myself and any client/employer. I am available any day, as long as I am given at least a day's notice in advance. I am also a part-time online student during the spring semester, so I have a fairly flexible schedule for pet care. I always make sure my own dog has access to water and feed him on schedule everyday (getting up early is not an issue). I make sure to pay attention to whenever he needs to be let outside to do his business or if he needs to get some energy out. His exercise is also a priority whether that be walking, running, or playing fetch in a field. While on walks, I keep him on-leash unless in an enclosed public field for dogs and I carry poop bags with me at all times when I take my dog anywhere.




20. Carissa W.
“To Whom it May Concern, My name is Becky and I've known Carissa for close to ten years. As long as I've known her she's been passionate about animals. Carissa has always been a great dog mom to her two pups and I would trust her any day with my own. She would make a great animal caretaker because she goes the extra mile and pays attention to the little things. Not only does she understand the needs of dog, she is aware of their many behavioral differences in a way that she can manage any difficulties a dogs individual personality may present. To sum up I highly recommend Carissa and she would be a great member of your team. Warm Regards, Becky”
