“Darcie was absolutely wonderful taking care of our anxious pup. She was easy to communicate with, very responsive, and sent a number of updates and photos. Ultimately, Darcie made our time away completely stress free and we came home to a very happy and well cared for fur-baby. 10/10 would recommend!”

“Tammy provided excellent care for both my home and my pets. She made sure my dog got daily walks and little adventures, and I really appreciated all the photo updates while I was away. My dog is a senior, and Tammy was incredibly thoughtful—she even brought a dog stroller so Bella could ride comfortably whenever she got tired. Tammy truly went above and beyond. She left my home clean and tidy, even organizing a few things around the house. I was welcomed home with freshly baked banana bread on the counter and a handwritten note, which was such a lovely touch. We would be absolutely happy to have Tammy back again and highly recommend her!”

“Madison took such wonderful care of Churro today! 🐾 She kept me updated with photos, spent lots of time playing with him, and I could instantly tell how much he adores her. It made me feel so at ease — I was actually able to enjoy my day without a single worry. Thank you so much, Madison — we really appreciate you! 💛”

“Catharine took great care of Maggie and Mabel. The pets loved her. Catharine kept us updated with photos regularly and responded quickly. Our house was left spotless, she was friendly and was respectful. We would definitely book her again. She’s the best!”

“She is a very good listener, communicated well & gave our senior cat meds, feel very comfortable having her stay at our house to care for our cat with special needs, highly recommend!”

“With short notice of my trip, Lynsay quickly responded and set up a meeting. She was knowledgeable and down to earth with a caring nature and genuine desire to make sure my cat Sachi was well cared for in every way. From giving medication, playtime and lots of love, Lynsay went beyond expectations to make sure he was happy. She always let me know what his day was like with lots of cute pictures that made me smile. She even asked to be notified when I was home so she’d know he got his meds that day. I was lucky to find her and appreciate everything she did for my boy.”


“We had Tommy come and stay with our 15 yr. old Pomeranian for the second time now. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend his services. We received several pictures daily and our place was spotless when we returned.”

About: I’ve always had pets in my life, so taking care is like second nature to me. I love being around animals and have always taken care of them when needed. I work Wednesday to Sunday, 12-5 so will never be away from home for more than 5 hours. I do work in a dog friendly workplace, if that were ever a worry! I follow the pets normal routine as best as I can, to reduce as much stress as possible. Walk them and feed them at the same times the normally would, and make sure to play with them or stimulate them.
“Chris was a complete gem. Bella was so happy when we got home. He took great care of her and communicated to us well. Sending us pics of how happy she was daily. Highly recommend.”

About: Animals have been apart of my life since I was a kid. I've cared for and raised animals of all kinds, from puppies to farm animals and small pets. My own dog, Rufus, has brought such light to my life, that I understand the important of comfortability when taking care of animals. Rufus has suffered from seizers since he was young. Through those experiences, I became comfortable with medication routines, food and digestion support, and providing calm energy and loving care during his episodes. Over the years I've experienced caring from many different types of animals, including cats, fish, hamsters, sugar gliders, farm dogs and other small pets. I think each animal has their own unique personality and I love getting to know them, which helps me understand the care they need. It is my upmost importance to make them feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I work from home and have a flexible schedule, which allows me to provide plenty of love, attention, and exercise throughout the day. I enjoy being active and going on hikes and walks so caring for animals, especially dogs, naturally fits into my daily routine. I treat every pet as if they were my own. I strive to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while owners are away. I take the time to learn their routine, personality, and any special needs so I can provide consistent care and help them feel at ease. I am more than happy to provide regular updates and photos to owners so you can assure your furry family member is in goods hands.
“Chantal was wonderful. My pups were well cared for and my home was spotless when I returned. Chantal took the time to set the routine with the dogs and I could tell she understood their needs and quirks and made sure they were comfortable. I would absolutely have Chantal back again!”

“Can't say enough amazing things about Michaella! Wish I could give her infinity star rating! She was so communicative from the start and was incredibly reliable and sweet. Our fur babies loved her so much, and she went above and beyond making sure our home was tidy when we came back from our weekend away. Would absolutely have her back!”

About: I have taken care of many dogs, cats, rodents and reptiles since I was 10. Trusted by friends, family and neighbours to follow strict care plans and medication instructions I’m currently working part time so I have plenty of time to cuddle and care for your pets. My work schedule is often fluid so I can make sure I’m home whenever needed. I live in an apartment right on the Galloping Goose Trail that is perfect for long walks. I have a very social cat who loves playing with other cats and dogs, perfect if you are wanting to socialize your fur baby’s.
About: I have 15 years caring for my own dogs, 10 years working in a pet store, and hands-on experience with agility puppy training. I’m confident handling high-energy breeds, enrichment, routines, and safety-focused care. I’ve previously had an Icelandic sheepdog and border collie mix, each with their own special needs such as extreme allergies, behavioural triggers and high prey drive. I know the challenges these breeds face and want to help you out as much as possible in easing their energy. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. As a masters student, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to plan walks, check-ins, and sits consistently. I prioritize reliability, routine, and making time for each pet’s individual needs. I prioritize safety, trust, and a calm environment in every home I care for. I follow owner instructions closely, maintain routines, secure doors and leashes, and ensure pets feel comfortable and respected. I keep spaces clean, monitor behavior, and provide regular updates for peace of mind.
“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,”

About: I grew up with dogs (golden retrievers and a papillon) for 23 years, I love every dog I see, so dog care is definitely my thing. I am very accustomed to all types of dog behaviour, walking, feeding, giving medication, itchy paw care, and all other pet care associated with dogs. I'm a well seasoned dog caretaker and am very familiar with many types of challenges and hyper puppies. I currently do not have a day job, so I am very able to be a hands-on caretaker to your pet. Walking, feeding, and attentiveness are my main priority. The best way to make sure your pets feel safe, trusting, and comfortable is for me to continue on the daily routine they tend to follow. I'm very familiar with having to separate animals in different rooms, gates, stairs, feeding schedules and walking times. The best way I can give the utmost care for your companion is if you tell me exactly what you'd appreciate in terms of caretaking from me and I will make sure I do it exactly how you'd like in a way that is comfortable for you and you pet!
“A++ Amy! What a great sitter - very conscientious, thorough, communicative - and my pets adore her. From our first meeting Amy asked all the right questions and took the time to learn specific details of each pet and catered to their quirks with a great sense of humour. She will continue to be my go-to pet sitter.”

Trina has watched our pups a number of times and I have nothing but great things to say. She was able to ease my (very stressed) mind about leaving our very senior dog for a week and took great care of both dogs and all of their special needs. We got lots of photo updates and were able to actually relax on vacation knowing they were being loved. Highly recommend and will absolutely book with her again. Thanks Trina!
Amy is incredible. Our doggie truly feels like he is on his own vacation whenever he stays with her. We have complete peace of mind knowing he is in such capable hands, and we always look forward to the frequent photo updates she sends. We cannot recommend her services enough!

Daytona is the most amazing pet sitter I have ever had! She treats both of the dogs like her own and they absolutely adore when she stays with them. I always have peace of mind leaving town when I know that they are in her excellent capable caring hands. I would highly recommend her to anybody who is looking for a top-notch pet sitter and HOUSE SITTER.
