1. Casie & Neil C.

“Casie & Neil were great. They were easy to communicate with and quick to respond to our messages. They sent photos which reassured us that our dogs were doing well while we were away. They were able to cope with our fairly elaborate instructions for the dogs. We would definitely book them again.”


2. Ellie & Sam B.

“Amazing! They took our dog on multiple walks and played and loved her just like she was their own pet. Highly recommend”


3. Christine G.

“Christine took excellence care of our two dogs (one 5years old and the other a 4 month old puppy). I was nervous because our former dog sitter completely flaked on us just before we were to leave to visit family over the holiday. Christine immediately replied to our inquiry and promptly came to our home to meet us and our dogs. Christine’s professional manner and her obvious love of dogs made us feel comfortable boarding our pups with her. The dogs stayed in her home, and she sent us several photos and texts about their activities every day, which assured us that all was well.”

“Julie watched my dog Gus overnight. She took the time to meet us beforehand and took great care of Gus.”


5. Amy S.


“We recently had Amy house and dog sit for us while we were out of the Country for two weeks. She was great to deal with and did an excellent job. She sent us several photos and videos of our pets while we were away and kept us updated. The house was clean and in great shape on our return. Communication was excellent. We will not hesitate to use Amy again in the future.”


6. Kalie H.

“Kalie was really awesome with our 2 boys sent lots of photos of them having a blast. She was also super accommodating with some other request we had because we had a family emergency going on and she let the house looking amazing too! 5 star would definitely recommend.”


7. Sarah F.

“Thank you Sarah for watching our house and pups. Sarah kept us updated throughout our vacation and always asked lots of questions. She went out of her way to make sure the dogs were happy. We really appreciate it. When we had a snow storm heading back to Fernie she was reassuring and helpful. Lovely to come home to a spotless house and happy pups. Thank you!”
8. Cassidy G.
“Cassidy loves dogs more than anyone I know. She has a warm energy that pets are immediately drawn to. I’ve seen her go out of her way with multiple pets to find creative and fun ideas for keeping them active. She is very knowledgeable about pet care and animal wellbeing. I have no doubt that anyone who chooses Cassidy as a better sitter would be making a terrific choice.”


9. Kevin D.
About: I’ve lived with dogs for the last 10 years. Love taking them on adventures and seeing their individual personalities. Can handle any breed types or ages I’m taking a break in between jobs so my schedule is fairly wide open as far as times of the day and days of the week. I have vehicle access if I need to drive to meet you. I live in a pet friendly home. I would mostly be walking the dogs or checking in on them if needed. Most of the time would be spent getting exercise.


10. Erin M.

“Erin and Elle, and their dog Bim, did a wonderful job of caring for our dog and cat, in our home, while we were away. The pets were so well looked after and we felt so good knowing that they were at home being well cared for. We will definitely reach out again in the future.”


11. Lauren M.

“Lauren was awesome, super nice, clean and kept us updated, throughout the weekend.”

13. Megan N.
About: I love animals and have interacted with pets since I was four. I have experience volunteering at the Humane Society, in addition to walking my friends' and neighbor's dogs. I enjoy taking moring or evening walks, and would love to have a furry friend join me. I also go jogging a few times a week. I always keep dogs on a leash while outside to prevent any incidents. Inside, I ensure all windows and doors are properly secured at all times so furry friends don't escape. Also, I make sure that choking hazards or dangerous objects are safely stored away.
