1. Miranda M.

“Miranda is a nice dog sitter. She was nice from our first communication. She texted me and sent some pictures of my dogs! I was so happy to see how my dogs were doing. I will recommend Miranda to any dog parents! Thank you, Miranda,”


2. Ashley E.

“Ashley did an amazing job looking after my two cats while we were away. She showed up on time despite my very last minute booking and sent me regular updates and photos, which gave me peace of mind knowing my cats was in great hands.My two cats received the care and attention they needed, and my house was very well kept!”


3. Darcie R.

“Darcie was amazing with our pets and kept our house nice and tidy! Overall extremely happy - we will definitely be asking her to come back again!”


4. Kaitlyn B.

“Kaitlyn is a wonderful cat sitter. She was on time, communicative, kind, clean, and spent tons of time taking care of my cat. Besides being all that, she’s clearly an amazing animal person. She did an amazing job and was perfect from start to finish, going above and beyond what I asked. Thank you so much Kaitlyn.”


5. Kelsey B.

“Kelsey took such great care with our two cats, Julian and Greta. She provided us with regular updates, made sure they were good on water, food, and litter, and went above and beyond to be affectionate and amazing company for them while we were gone over the holidays. I’d highly recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter!”


6. Kristen T.

“We gelt very comfortable having Kristen watch over our cat, Luna. Kristen read Luna’s body language well and adapted to Luna’s nervousness appropriately. Kristen kept us updated and we could tell Luna liked her and felt comfortable. Kristen was very responsible, we were able to enjoy ourselves on our vacation without any worries at all. 10/10, would recommend her to anyone.”


7. Sara-Maude D.

“Sara-Maude was really good with both our cat and dog. She took her time to let them get used to her as they can be fearful of strangers. She sent updates and pictures daily. Would definitely recommend-hire in the future!”


8. Kristin T.
“Kristin has a very deep love of dogs - from growing up in a dog-loving family, to now having her own rescue dog. This familiarity and her love of dogs were extremely apparent as she established a very strong bond with my golden retriever, over the many occasions she has taken her for walks, hikes and longer home stays over several years. She is experienced in working with large dogs, and is very fit and energetic, so is able to handle high energy dogs. She has been working diligently at training her own pup as I saw with my own eyes her dog’s amazing progression from a fearful, shy pup, into a sociable, well trained and responsive dog. I appreciate that Kristin was very attuned to my dog’s health and took the initiative to take her to the vet when we were away, and when some unusual symptoms appeared. My dog clearly became very attached to Kristin and got very excited when she saw her. I would unconditionally recommend Kristin as a great dog walker and home pet sitter.”


9. Pat M.

“According to Bailey, our Maltese, Pat treated him with attention and affection like never before (except from us) while we were away on Christmas vacation: he frankly hated to see her leave. Pat responded to our enquiry promptly and met with us on two occasions to get all the details regarding staying in our home, including Bailey's culinary details and exercise and sleeping preferences. Upon our return we found everything as we had left it and a very happy Bailey eager to have us go on another vacation in order to have fun with Pat again. We highly recommend Pat as she saved the situation for us. Initially, we did some "interviews" with a local kennel but were rejected since all Bailey did during the "all day trial" was try to escape. On future trips, Pat will be the first person we'll contact for the job.”


10. Maia L.
“Maia is the best! She stepped up to help us in a difficult situation, and she was loving, attentive, and active with Clementine. She was also dependable and flexible with me and my family. I highly recommend!”


11. Sonya J.

“As soon as Sonya arrived, I knew that my pup was in good hands. Her warm, calm nature was evident and Charlie took to her right away. It didn’t take him long to snuggle in with Sonya as if he knew her all his life. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Sonya.”


12. Chantal S.

“Chantal is an exceptional person with incredible energy. Our fur babies have never bonded so well and so fast with other sitters. She is also very respectful of our wishes. A bonus she left our house as clean as we left it for her. Chantal is our forever! Thank you so much young lady, super impressed!”


13. Lindsay M.

“Lindsay got along well with Sheeba and they enjoyed several walks. I was updated on the walks and pictures where nice to see. Thank you Lindsay. Hope to be able to enjoy your dog sitting services in the future.”


14. Cherish F.

“Not gonna lie, we were a but nervous about having someone we don't know staying at our house for 3 days! We have never left our dogs with anyone we don't know. Especially our new rescue dog Eva who is afraid of everyone. We were put at ease as soon as we did the meet and greet with Cherish. Eva was interested in her, and even let Cherish touch her, which never happens. They say dogs are a good judge of character! Cherish sent multiple photo updates while we were gone, which was unexpected and so appreciated! She even sat out and had a campfire in the yard one night and let the dogs run and play for hours. We even got a selfie of Eva snuggling with Cherish the day after we left! When we got home, the house looked as clean as when we left. The dogs were happy, and had clearly been taken great care of. We will hire Cherish again and again. If you are considering Rover, and you are unsure like we were, look no further! Just hire Cherish and rest easy. She is amazing!”


15. Alexandra M.
“Alex is a great pet caregiver. Couldn't recommend her more! She went above and beyond making sure Duke was happy and well cared for. His behaviour on walks with me improved after Alex came and took care of him for a few days. He is now way less interested in other dogs when we go out, making our walks much more enjoyable. Was an unexpected bonus. She keeps the house clean and even took out all the recycling, even though I completely gaffed and forgot it was a recycling week. Any time we go away, where we cannot take our dog, we always cross our fingers that Alex is available, as we know he'll be in great hands if she is.”


16. Teanna G.
“We have a very timid dog that it usually takes 4-5 meetings before she will come to them. Teanna had her sitting calm on the first visit. Teanna's calm demeanor and patiences put even the most skittish dog at ease.”
17. Elel P.

“I needed someone last minute to watch my dog after her dental surgery, Elle was absolutely amazing! She was so sweet, easy to communicate with, and made everything stress-free. She sent me the cutest photo updates throughout the day, and my dog warmed up to her right away. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Highly recommend!”


18. Karen R.

“Karen looked after our Westie, Pippa, this weekend. Pippa has multiple health issues so it was the first time in almost 2 years since we left her with anyone. We couldn’t have found a nicer, more capable person to take care of Pippa than Karen. She is calm and caring and very confident. She certainly had to use a lot of her vet tech assistant training while caring for Pippa. I would not hesitate to ask Karen to sit for us again, nor would I have any issues recommending Karen.”


19. Amy G.

“We met Amy through the app. Right away she was easy to get along with and her love for animals was obvious. She provides daily updates and photos of our babies which was really great!! Even with one of our dogs developing an ear and skin infection days before we left, she was ok with providing her medication and giving me updates. Our girls seemed very well taken care of when we got home. (Amy even watered my garden!) Grateful for this service and finding Amy! Hopefully she will sit for us again :)”


20. Kirsten C.

“I'm so glad I reached out to Finn to take care of my cat! They were absolutely amazing and I couldn't recommend them enough. What set them apart was how thoughtful and considerate they were of my cat right from the start. As an anxious cat mom, I felt completely at ease while Finn was watching my cat. They followed my instructions perfectly-it was like they were my clone! Communication was always quick and easy, and I really appreciated receiving updates and adorable photos of my cat. On top of all of that, my home was exactly the way I left it when I returned, and my cat looked happy, healthy-maybe even better than when I left! I'll definitely be reaching out again on my next trip.”
