“Bridget & Glenn were very nice to take Blaze on with a last minute booking. They took the time to show me around the farm. My dog and he had lots of fun with the other dogs exploring all the sites and smells on the farm.”

“This place is amazing!! Kim's family are professional. I had my little Lilly, Maltese mix, here for a weekend and I was happy they have the same dog breed at home. They care about everything, time, safty, entertainment, etc. at the same time really flexible. They have children at home who play with Lilly all the time, even draw a beautiful gift card for her. Their address is also in a great location with fenced yard at the back. Will definitely Lilly coming back again to play and stay with Oreo and their children.”

“I can’t recommend Lei enough! We started with a meet and greet near her place at the park. She was calm and super friendly. She asked all the right questions regarding my pup - what he likes, doesn’t like, his schedules, routines etc - all questions that indicate that she has his best interest at heart. Throughout my pup’s stay, she sent an abundance of updates with pictures. Ollie seemed super comfortable and well taken care of. So much so that I can tell he misses her now that he’s home with us! I will be picking Lei every single time from this point forward.”

“Hui was absolutely amazing with our little dog Gupie! She was very attentive to his needs as he has arthritis and can be a shy dog. She constantly gave us updates on his daily activities and sent us many videos and pictures of him living life! We felt so comfortable leaving Gupie with her and will definitely be contacting Hui again! We 100% recommend Hui.”

“Such a wonderful experience! Sarah, Daniel, and their two children brought my two small dogs into their home for a weekend away and treated them as if they were their own. The photo updates were fun to get when I checked my phone and the communication was easy and quick. I’ll definitely be booking another stay for my dogs the next time then need care. We’re so glad to have met this crew.”

“Kavya took care of Bailey while we were away. Bailey made herself at home and was treated like family! I received news and photos every few days, it was perfect! Thanks!”

About: I’ve had tons of different animals growing up. Recently had to euthanize my 15 year old family boarder collie. Also an English bull dog who passed away at two due to breathing issues. I miss having a dog around, however am not ready to adopt my own just yet. Would love to have them over here and there. I Absolutely adore dogs! I currently work from home so I am always here to take care and love your animal! Will walk, feed, cuddle them and if permitted, take them where me and my family go, weather it’s a walk to the park or beach! We will love and care for your pet as our own. We have a backyard for them to pee/poo as well as a pool if they can swim. Will go on walks! I have two children who adore animals who are very gentle so we will all be spending lots of time together. Dog must be kid friendly though.

“Left our big guy with Madeleine for a weekend. Was worry free that he was in great hands, received picture that he was nice and settled and just made us feel at easy. Will definitely be using Madeleine for our next trip. Highly recommend!”

“Bear had a wonderful stay with Beverly. Beverly was kind, responsive and the perfect match for Bear. She was extremely helpful and prepared for our dog's stay. Beverly's home is well appointed for dogs, with proper fencing and many walking trails nearby. We will definitely be booking with Beverly again.”

“Wow is all I can say!! Jason and his family are incredible people!! I fell sick and ended up hospitalized while Mavis was with Jason. Without hesitation he agreed to keep Mavis and kept her for several extra days. They also took amazing care of our girl. They were an absolute life saver!!”

“This was the second time Autumn looked after Remy, and the experience was excellent once again. I really appreciated the updates, pictures, and videos throughout the stay. Remy was clearly well cared for and had a great time. I wouldn’t hesitate to book again and would definitely recommend Autumn to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter.”

About: I have several years of professional and independent pet care experience, including dog daycare, pet retail, dog walking, drop-ins, house sitting, overnight care and extended stays. I currently work from home, which gives me flexibility for pets who benefit from having someone around throughout the day, and I’m especially interested in building relationships with regular clients. I previously worked in dog daycare where I cared for groups of up to 75 dogs of all ages, sizes and temperaments. My experience includes feeding, walking, bathing, brushing, crating, administering medications, puppy care, senior care and working with special-needs dogs who require additional attention or accommodations. I’m also trained in canine first aid and comfortable caring for pets with more involved routines. Through my previous work at Village Pets Boutique, I gained extensive knowledge of pet nutrition, supplements and natural health products. Before that, I worked in the Pet Care department at PetSmart, giving me an even broader background in animal care and handling. I’m equally comfortable with cats and have plenty of experience caring for them through my work at PetSmart as well as independent drop-ins, house sitting and overnight stays. I’m very comfortable staying in a client’s home for extended periods and frequently provide this type of care while clients are travelling. Animals have also always been a huge part of my life outside of work. I grew up in a home with both dogs and cats and currently have two black Labs back home, Louie and Lenny. I bring a calm, capable and compassionate approach to pet care and genuinely enjoy getting to know each animal’s individual personality and routine. I currently work from home, which gives me a lot of flexibility for pet care throughout the day. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, daytime care, overnight sitting and extended stays, and I’m especially interested in finding regular clients who need consistent weekly care. My schedule can vary week to week, so feel free to message me about what you’re looking for! For house sitting, I’m very comfortable staying overnight or for longer periods and can often continue my normal workday from your home while keeping your pet company. I try to keep each pet’s routine as close to normal as possible, especially when caring for them in their own home. I’ll follow your usual feeding, walking, medication, crate, sleep and exercise routines and take the time to learn your pet’s individual habits, boundaries and personality. My professional daycare experience has made me very comfortable reading animal body language, recognizing stress or changes in behaviour and safely managing pets with very different temperaments. I’m also comfortable administering medications and caring for pets with more specific routines or needs. When house sitting or staying overnight, I’m very respectful of my client’s home and make sure everything is cared for while they’re away, not just their pet!

“Rodrigo was a fantastic dog sitter. He gave me a tour of his home and kept Bella on her usual routine. He sent daily photos with captions, which gave me peace of mind. He's home from University for the summer and is also volunteering, it's clear that he's responsible and kind. His parents were lovely and also cared for Bella. I'd absolutely book with Rodrigo again.”

“Copper was very well taken care of with Nancy. I also loved the personal touch of daily updates to keep us in the loop of how he was doing. Definitely would recommend and hope to use her services in the future!”
