“Lixia was a perfect sitter for my older cat Emily, she was attentive with the instructions I gave her on giving Emily her medication and followed through perfectly on feeding and giving Emily her medicine. I am so thankful to have booked lixia for my week away and wouldnt hesitate to book her again!”
“Chantelle was wonderful and really put my mind at ease. She came before the visit to meet the boys, which helped so much since it was my first time having someone I didn’t know come check on them. The updates she sent were great, and I appreciated how reassuring she was throughout the process. I also really liked that she took the time to try to befriend them, which makes me feel like future visits will be much easier for all of us. 🫶”
“Vanessa helped care for my Jane & Nemo pretty last minute and was wonderful to engage with, attentive and communicative. She let me know when she was heading over and gave me a lil report and took a few photos of my bebes. She kindly washed their dishes and everything looked great when I got home. Highly recommend and would happily trust her with my kitties again 🙏🏼”
“My cats were well loved and cared for. Lion and Gabe took to Tayor right away. Taylor was punctual, responded quickly to messages and sent lots of pictures. I would highly recommend Taylor as a petsitter!”

Also if you are needing/wanting a day that’s not on my availability just send me a message and I can double check my schedule and see if I can make time for you.

“Emily was amazing! I felt super confident knowing she was coming to check in on my kitty. I got lots of photos and updates, and always got a reply within the hour. Will def be booking with her again and highly recommend!”
About: I am a young professional who loves the outdoors. I spend most of my time being very active outside. I enjoy hiking, running or long walks on the beach in all types of weather! I have always loved dogs and have spent many years being around them and caring for them. Growing up, I had dogs, cats, turtles, hamsters and guinea pigs, mice, frogs etc. I often volunteer to take friend's and familie's dogs for walks in my spare time or pet sit over longer periods of time. I genuinely enjoy the company and energy that dogs bring. I have a life long ambition to care for animals who have been neglected or poorly treated. Apart from being active, I also enjoy downtime/ snuggle time with older/less energetic animals. I have a gentle touch and a lot of love to share for 4 legged friends, no matter the size or temperament! I am currently taking the Summer off so my schedule is wide open for all your furry friend's needs! Please feel free to reach out regarding any availability questions/concerns. I have a large property (a dogs paradise!) but I am also happy to go on as many or as little dog walks/fetch dates as needed for whatever length is best suited for your dog. I have lots of experience with anxious animals or unsocialized pets so therefore I am confident I can keep your fur baby safe.

“Bryce was very attentive to both my cats and the house while housesitting. His experience with and love of animals are very evident. He is friendly, very responsive, and detail oriented. My place was left clean, and the space was respected as if it were his own. If you have any reservations for booking him, I promise they will vanish as soon as you meet him. I will 100% be booking more house sitting services with Bryce in the future! Thank you :)”

“Kassie was very nice and responsive. Our cat has happy and healthy as normal and I'm sure that she did a great job dropping in on him while we were out of town camping. Would totally call again for future kitty care. Thanks Kassie!”
About: I have not owned a cat in many years but always enjoy their company. Even the most unsocial cats seek out affection and attention for me. I have been involved with farming and farm sitting since I was a child. I work a couple of part time jobs in healthcare. My schedule for meeting with clients is flexible and can easily be worked around pet care commitments. I have walking trails and a fenced dog park in my neighbourhood. I have a spacious home and areas of my home can be closed off in order to assure a safe environment when I am not able to be around to observe the pets in my care directly.

This was my second time booking with Chantelle, and once again everything was fantastic! She took wonderful care of the boys, kept me updated, and gave me complete peace of mind while we were away. It's such a relief knowing they're in such caring and reliable hands. Definitely wouldn't hesitate to book her again. Highly recommend!
