“Michelle was amazing. She was responsive, flexible and thoughtful. Juni had a terrific time with Michelle and Molly and we will for sure be back again! Thank you Michelle!”


“Where do we begin? We were so nervous about leaving Nicky with strangers. And we are truly so grateful to have found Susan and Brian. Full disclosure, we thought about not writing this review so that we could keep Susan and Brian all to ourselves, but we know that they will take very, very good care of other, beloved pets so here we are. We cannot say enough good things about our experience with Susan and Brian! They made sure that our human and the furry family members were comfortable from the start. Communication was excellent. They made sure to keep us updated with regular messages and photos. They also created a little “report card” upon our return so we knew exactly how and what Nicky was doing each day — such a thoughtful touch! They went above and beyond while caring for our dog. When Nicky had unexpected tummy issues, they handled it with such care and ease. We had peace of mind the entire time we were away. We highly recommend Susan and Brian to anyone looking for reliable, attentive, kind, gentle, funny, dedicated and wonderfully caring sitters for their furry family members. Susan and Brian, thank you so much!”


“Heather and her husband and kids are SUPER nice, prompt and passionate about animals.. They took my girl Mea, VERY last minute and loved and cared for her for 24 hrs. She seemed very comfortable with the Heather and her family. Awesome awesome family and animal lovers. I'd give 10 stars if I could...”


“My small dog really seems to have enjoyed her time while at Jan's and I appreciated the picture updates of an obviously happy puppy. I also liked that Jan was flexible about pick up and drop off times. Will be using Jan's service again in the very near future!”


“Jillian made Theo feel right at home. We received a few photos of him where he looked very content. Thank you for taking such good care of him; and when we’re back in the area we will definitely rebook!”


About: I’ve had dogs all my life and bonded pairs of dogs for the past 20 years. I enjoy walking dogs on area trails, parks and at the waterfront. I am home full time and can attend to your pet’s every need including giving medication, and lots of love and hugs. I have a small 10 lb. Shitzu cross who loves to play and chase squirrels in our very large fenced yard. We have lots of toys, beds and treats so all you need to bring is your pet’s food, fave toy if you like, their own bed or blanket, however I’m down with dogs on my couches and beds. Your pet will have the run of my house and yard. My home is your dog’s home away from home. I offer initial free meet up to check out the yard space and to meet Chloe. I’m home full time and provide multiple walks during the day including area trails and parks. My routine revolves around your pets needs and schedule. I’m flexible around your dog’s feeding times, walks, and pee breaks. I’m also comfortable with puppies and paper training if needed. I have loads of experience with senior dogs and can administer medication, etc. as needed. Let’s meet up and see if it’s a good fit for your pet. If you only need dog walks or visits I can do that too! Totally flexible to meet your’s and your pet’s needs. I have a large fenced yard and a small pup who can play with your dog. My home is fully accessible to your dog, no locked separate rooms or crates. However I’m happy to crate your dog if you prefer. I’m also happy to let your dog sleep on any bed (3 to choose from) or couch they prefer. I also have multiples of dog beds, treats and hugs!

“I left Elphie in Catherine's care for a weekend while I was visiting Blue Mountain. She was absolutely wonderful at creating a comfortable and fun environment for my pup. Was great with communication and sending updates. Would definitely recommend!”


About: I've had family pets for my whole life and two dogs of my own - both with fun quirks that come with rescue dogs. I love animals and especially walking dogs. Experience sitting all sizes of dog from puppies to senior dogs. I work from home and have a fenced backyard where I can also work when the weather is nice. Therefore, I can let a dog out as much as it needs during the day and have time for two good walks (or a few shorter ones) each day. Pets in my home are allowed to nap on furniture and there are also a few pet beds around, so they can have their pick. I like to take dogs to the backyard, which is fenced, for some outdoor relaxing time, and have a good supply of poop bags, dried beef liver treats, and some fun toys depending on what the dog likes. The house is calm and quiet, and one of the first things I do in the morning is go for a nice big walk.

“I love how much Ginger gets excited to stay with Anne and Andrew (& their dog, Winter!). It feels like Ginger’s second home and I’m so grateful to have found such wonderful sitters for her! Anne always shares lots of photos and updates. The best!”



“Angi was fantastic! We felt very comfortable leaving our dog with her over the weekend as we attended an event. You can tell she is a dog person, and was very welcoming and communicative. We appreciated the regular updates and photos to reassure us Maple was having a great time and was being well cared for. Would highly recommend and we’ll rebook if we are ever traveling that way again. Thanks Angi.”


“Adi is amazing 👏 our young doggie Nera was with him and his family for about 3 weeks. Excellent communication, always kept us updated, everyday sent us pictures and videos, and ultimately he really helped us out. Thank you very much for all your help Adi ❤️ Definitely recommending Adi to anyone looking for doggie walks or sleepovers.”


About: I’ve been a pet owner for over 20 years. Currently loving a ~6 year old rescue chi mix. He plays well with older, gentle dogs. I work from home and do morning walks, afternoon walks and long evening strolls. I also have a teen that helps to provide extra attention as needed! I’m always home as I work from home. Plus we have a completely fenced yard. I’m also a walker - so we’re always out enjoying Georgian bay. I have fenced yard, and my home is well suited to a playmate for Oso - we go on lots of walks and the dogs can watch me in the garden.

“Jessica and her family cared for Milo like one of their own. He came back happy and tired from all the running around with her dogs. I would have Jessica watch Milo again in a heartbeat.”


“Monty was spoiled rotten with love and attention and “just a few” liver treats. Lindsay has created a very warm and fuzzy environment for the woofers in her care. I picked up a super happy dog. I highly recommend Lindsay to any future furry clients looking for sitter.”


“We left our 2 dogs with Sheila for one night as a trial before we leave them for a week in September. We could not be happier! She took care of them like her own, which is all we wanted when searching for someone to watch our babies. They were walked, fed (even though our younger dog does not eat when anxious/scared, Sheila tried her best and even made her boiled eggs to try to get her to eat!), and well rested. We are looking forward to their stay in September and are very confident they will enjoy their time with her. Thank you Sheila!”



About: A little note: I travel overseas every year for at least 2 months, so if you're looking for a lifetime sitter on a daily basis, I may not be the best fit. Don't want to let anyone down. 🍀 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I know that giving love and affection to animals is important - but safety is always my top priority. I’m a pet owner myself (a black stray cat), and I’ve always had a good, almost “healing” relationship with animals. (Ask the 4 poisoned chicks I saved!) I worked at a doggie daycare for two years, and have been a freelance dogwalker for even longer, so it’s years of actively working with dogs. I always make sure that their leash is clipped properly, and that they don’t step on broken glass pieces on the street etc. because I’m a safety freak, and I LOVE every one of my furry friends dearly! I've been working from home since my father passed away, so I can always manage my time. And my main job doesn't require my full-time attention. I'm a smoke/alcohol/drug-free person and I will leave your home clean, and your pets happy for sure! They're welcome at my place as well, since both my husband and I are crazy about animals! We're working on having a fence around the yard too. Hopefully we'll get that done soon! 👍 Thank you!

“Siobhan created a calm, and inviting atmosphere for my dog and made sure he was well taken care of. Getting him out regularly for the walks he needed and spending time with him throughout the day. I appreciated the updates and pictures. Archer and I recommend.”


“Jordan did a fantastic job looking after our anxious pup for the weekend! She was super communicative with updates and made us feel confident about our choice. We’d book with her again :)”

I left my puppy overnight with Michelle, and it was a fantastic experience. She took such great care of my pup and kept me updated throughout. Her dog Molly was amazing with my puppy—so gentle and playful. It was clear they got along really well, which made me feel even more at ease. My pup came home happy, calm, and clearly well looked after. I’d absolutely trust her again

Vanessa looked after our two mini Aussies for 10 days. We got frequent updates and communication which is always appreciated. When one of the dogs got into something he shouldn’t have, Vanessa was quick to let us know and call our vet for guidance. She’s a dog person - We felt very comfortable with Vanessa and our dogs settled in quickly with her and her family. She is attentive, caring and we’d happily rebook again!
