1. Shelly S.


“Shelly is amazing with my girls and lovely as a human :). Look forward to Shelly hanging with Kisha and Sadie whenever our schedules allow ????”


2. Katherine D.

“Katherine was excellent with our two dogs. She came in advance for a meet and greet to get information and meet the dogs which I really appreciated. She made the dogs comfortable and happy. She provided updates and photos. We will definitely be using Katherine again. Miso and Hamilton were happy with their dog sitter!”


3. Tamara O.

“Tamara was fabulous with my senior dachshund, Dexter, in our home. She arrived a few minutes early and was kind enough to stay longer when I let her know I was going to be later coming home. It was really nice to get a photo of him eating his food after one of the walks they did together. Dexter is happy and it seems like he is tired, which means he had some good walks. Thank you, Tamara!”


4. Sachini U.

“Sachini was absolutely fantastic with Loki! She was responsible for petsitting and housesitting for a month while I was away for work. She cuddled and coddled my attention-seeking and verbose siamese cat to his little heart's desire. Right from our first interaction through the app, she was extremely responsive and willing to meet twice before the booking and asked plenty of questions. Over the month of petsitting, she would regularly send me updates and ask questions if she ever had concerns about anything pet or house related. Communication between us was great throughout the whole process. And, most importantly, Loki was a very happy cat while I was away. I'd recommend Sachini to anyone who needs some pet support!”


5. Mélanie P.


“I don’t know if we can fully express the praise we have for Melanie’s absolute care and love of our dog and our daughter’s two cats while we were away for 9 days. Our 3 pets are lovable and quirky and Melanie loved on them as her own. So much so that I will need to step up my dog walks. Our 8 year old dog Xochi is a rescue we adopted in 2020 and for our last trip in 2022 we boarded him in a lovely kennel but even that was too much for him. To have him in his own home and surroundings was important to us and finding the right person was equally important. We hit gold with Melanie. This is not a cheap option and likely not something you do often but the peace of mind we had while we were away and pictures and videos received were priceless to us. You will not go wrong with Melanie. Thank you Melanie!!”


6. Tahsin (Tess) T.

“We hired Tahsin for her house sitting services to take care of our elderly cat for a full week and we are so pleased with her service. She was attentive to details, she kept us updated daily with texts and pictures and she respected my cat's boundaries (she is anxious and scared easily). Tahsin administered medication as indicated and kept me in the loop of any changes I should be aware about my cat's behavior. Our cat was trying new medication just before we left so I was nervous to leave her but Tahsin instantly put my mind at ease the minute I met her. We came home to a content kitty and our home was exactly as we left it. We highly recommend Tahsin's services :)”




7. Christine D.

“Christine watched our dog for 3 weeks this summer. We were very satisfied with the level of care she provided. She also provided regular updates and communicated very well with us while we were on a trip. Would definitely recommend her and looking forward to book her in the future again.”


8. Leah M.

“Leah is amazing! She was so patient with Willy (chihuahua) and got along great with Lady. She took the time to meet our dogs before pet-sitting, and kept us posted on how they were doing.”


9. Janelle V.

“Janelle is fabulous with our dog, Cassie. Janelle has really helped us out - dog sitting at our home multiple times, including for an extended period when Cassie required medication and extra care as she was recovering from an injury. Janelle kept Cassie active, happy and safe while we were away. I look forward to hiring Janelle again!”


10. Mackenzie P.

“Mackenzie was phenomenal with our poodle. Easy t communicate with, prompt, respectful and very attentive to our dog, Mackenzie comes highly recommended.”


11. Isabella M.
“She is just amazing, no other words to explain it! Isabella took the time to build the connections needed to take care of my three dogs. The oldest a Pitbull has had a hard start to life and has been dealing with a lot of trauma. Usually she has a really hard time adjusting to other people (unfortunately this means she is seen as being aggressive, however as all pitbull lovers know its not the breed its the owner), however she warmed right up to Isabella after the first 10 minutes around her. Isabella was also able to help me learn about some dog care tricks I can now not live without. She taught me when I clip my dogs nails to put peanut butter on one of those clear face shields (this has been a great help when I clip the nails of my Great Dane whos 75 cm (cant believe that she's only 8 months)). Isabella is a great help and the first person I call whenever I need someone to watch my dogs and house. From one proud dog mother to another dog parent in need shes your gal! (also for those wondering my oldest is a Pitbull rescue whos 8 (Princess), the middle child is a corgi who is playful and full of energy and he's 5 (Oliver (though we like to call him ollie)), and lastly a 8 month year old great dane who is really well behaved (Dutches)).”




12. Kira K.

“I had a great experience with Kira while she watched my cat, Eggy, for 4 days. From the start, communication was easy and reliable. She sent daily updates and photos, which really helped me feel at ease while I was away.”


13. Keely O.

“We received excellent service from Keely! We have a golden retriever with a lot of energy and she went above and beyond for our boy Noah. She kept me updated and sent me photos and I knew my boy was in good hands. She is very professional and her love for animals are evident. Our house was in a very neat condition when we got back, as if we were never even gone. We will definitely make use of her services again, she is an excellent pet sitter! ?”


14. Aleksandra B.

“Aleksandra was a very attentive sitter to my dog Baby. I received multiple photo updates on how Baby was doing, which was very appreciated. Aleksandra was punctual, communicative, and flexible. I felt Baby was in very good hands and I highly recommend her to anyone.”


15. Alexandria C.

“I cannot recommend Alexandria highly enough! From the moment we met, her warm and friendly demeanor put me at ease. She has an exceptional personality that shines through in everything she does and she is incredibly attentive and caring, treating my dog as if she were her own. Her professionalism is unmatched. She sent daily communications and pictures and it is clear that she genuinely loves animals. If you’re looking for a reliable, compassionate, and personable dog sitter, look no further. Thank you, Alexandria for treating Bella as if she were your own.”


16. Noah M.

“Noah is considerate with communication, very present for Chacha and clean and responsible (he stayed at my apartment). I highly recommend him.”


17. Anike M.
“Anike watched my cat at her home while I was travelling and preparing to move to a new house. She did an amazing job, keeping to the feeding and litter schedule I prefer. She sent me some photos of my cat to reassure me that she was settling in okay. When I came back, I could tell my cat was happy and in good hands. I highly recommend Anike: she's great with animals 😁”


18. Jayme C.

“Jayme was very communicative throughout her stay at our place, where she house sat our two dogs. She also spent a lot of time with the dogs, walking them and doing enrichment activities with them, which I' sure they loved! We would trust Jayme with our dogs any time!”


19. Audrey T.

“Audrey was nothing short of amazing when I was away for the holidays. Gave me piece of mind that my little kitty was in good hands. I would highly recommend Audrey for house sitting services.”


20. Jamie G.

“Jamie is the best! We have re booked her multiple times and she’s always so accommodating and helpful in anything we need for our baby girl! Can’t wait until our next booking! 😀”
