“Nicole was amazing with our rescue dog Leo. She kept us updated with texts and photos, and it was clear Leo adored her. We’d 100% book again with Nicole. Thanks again for being so patient with him!”
“Taylor is pretty incredible! 3 dogs can be alot, but she made us so feel so at ease, and made it look easy. Lots and lots of pics and feedback while we were away gave us such peace of mind. The dogs were happy and tired when we got home. Taylor stayed in our house (which always makes us feel a bit nervous not knowing someone) but she was a great house guest. Couldn't even tell she was there:) Taylor is just a lovely human, great with dogs and us, and we highly recommend!”
“Sara was wonderful. We got as many updates as we needed to feel at ease. She was supportive knowing we were traveling abroad and stressed about the pets. Our pets have never been this at ease with us gone. And our house was cleaner than how we left it! I can highly recommend Sara!!!”
“Alexis did a fantastic job caring for my very high energy little puppy for 2 days while I was away for a family emergency. She frequently provided updates and kept him safe, happy and healthy.”
“Robyn took great care of our two dogs, two cats and a fish while we were away. She sent us lots of photos and updates throughout the week which was greatly appreciated. She obviously loves animals and I will book her again the next time we need someone to watch the pets and the house! Thanks Robyn!”
About: I’ve had a huge passion for animal care since I was very young and I’ve taken care of all type of animals from rodents, dogs, cats, birds, and even reptiles and amphibians. I will go above and beyond while caring for your pets by helping to keep your home training consistent and ensure they even stay clean by grooming. I am a University student aspiring to become a vet one day so it’ll be great experience for me to care for your pets. I’ve always been the one my family and friends turn to when needing some advice on pet care so I can assure your pet will be in great hands! I’m currently a full-time university student and I do work part-time but I always have lots of gaps in my schedule to still care for your pets. Personally, I treat this as if they were my own pets and so I don’t see to much of challenge in caring for them. I am very flexible and understanding so I can work with anything as long as I’m free. Since I offer in-home boarding, I’ll be sure to keep your pet comfortable and keep your home just the way you left it. I will respect your space and any rules you may have and also keep out of your personal areas such as your bedrooms or office space.
About: I’ve cared for animals of all sizes, from tiny pups to large breeds, and in doing so, I’ve learned how to meet each one’s unique needs. Over time, I not only fell in love with animals, but also with the joy of supporting the families who love them. My goal is to make pets feel safe, happy, and understood while giving their humans peace of mind. I am a university student so my schedule is pretty flexible and open. Specially now in the summer. During the week I am available Monday, Thursday and Friday after 2:30 pm and totally available on the tuesday and weekends. I would love to spend my free time doing something that makes me so happy like taking care of animals, while lending a hand to you. For any type of services, is important to discuss the lifetime your pets has and your personal requirements. I am aware each owner has different standards for their pets and we shall discuss them before home care, walking dogs, or any other services.
“Sheng is an amazing house sitter and took such good care of our dog Kilo. She followed instructions perfectly, and sent us numerous updates along with pictures. Kilo loved having her and we highly recommend and will absolutely be using her again.”
“Nova was absolutely amazing! She stayed at my home and took care of both my cat and dog. It was the first time I've left them and I was a little tense, but she made sure to provide updates and photos very often, which helped put me at easy. I have to say that my pets can be a lot, and she handled everything perfectly well. She took really good care of my pets and the house as well. I will definitely book other times!”
About: I've grown up with a wide range of pets, from dogs and cats, rabbits and lizards, fish and rodents, and even horses. Every pet is a member of the family and deserve the care a family member should have. I will treat your pets just like my own, with all pet types being welcome. As I am studying online for a career change, my schedule is open at the moment. Weekdays I am available for everything, and most weekends I should be available as well. If something comes up, it will be shown on my schedule. When it comes to pet care, the owner's directions are important. If there is anything specific you or your pet need, just let me know. The pet being happy and having any needs met matter most.
“Kiah was wonderful with my senior dog, sending me a couple of pictures throughout the sitting, to keep me updated on how Misty was doing. Kiah was really responsive about a meet and greet beforehand, which allowed us to chat so that we both felt comfortable. She also checked in the day before to confirm she was still coming, and then arrived on time for the job. Thanks so much Kiah!”
About: I’ve had pets all my life, including dogs, cats, and even guinea pigs. I’ve trained my two dogs when they were puppies, and enjoy taking them out for walks! I have also done dog and cat sitting for my family and friends while they were away in their homes. I’m currently home from university for the summer, so my schedule is fairly open. I’m flexible to help out in the morning, afternoon, evenings as needed. In my home, I have a fenced in yard for dogs to play and run around in. I’m also comfortable with taking multiple dogs out for walks using leashes.
“Nicole did an excellent job looking after our senior dog Tia during her stay. She truly loves animals and made Tia (who tends to be anxious) feel happy, comfortable and relaxed. With her experience, love and care for animals, Nicole made sure that Tia felt at home and made the time enjoyable for both Tia and us. It was truly a worry-free experience, as we received daily updates and pictures. When the time came to pick her up, the connection between them was evident and Tia did not want to leave LOL. We would be very happy and confident to leave Tia with Nicole again and highly recommend her to any pet owner. Thanks Nicole!”
“Taisiya was fantastic! She watched 3 of our dogs for a week, 2 small dogs and a very big dog. She walked them everyday and took them to an off leash park near our house. We received pictures multiple times per day and our dogs always looked so happy, comfortable, and well taken care of. I'd highly recommend her for any dog services :)”
“Katherine saved me with a last minute request and my puppy loved her! She followed all of the instructions I left and gave my pup plenty of love. Highly recommend!”
