“Wonderful care from start to finish. My dog came home happy, clean, well-fed and relaxed. I felt completely confident that she was safe, loved and in great hands. Will use again. Highly recommend!”

“When we dropped Teddy off he immediately took to Wayne. We gave Wayne all of Teddy’s stuff and off they both went to the house - it was that easy! During the stay we received constant updates, pictures and videos which made our first time away from Teddy very comforting. Also being away from home for the first time for Teddy he didn’t sleep that well but Wayne assured us things would be fine. Teddy had such a busy day of playing that next day he zonked out for the whole night. Upon pick up Teddy was as happy as the moment we dropped him off. We know that this first time away was a great comfort and success because of Wayne and his way with dogs. We will absolutely book with Wayne again, and if you are looking for a great sitter you should too !”

“Everything has been great! Good Communication about walks, activities and photos provided. We needed to add an extra night and Jane accommodated this for us. Would highly recommend.”

“Katia looked after our dog, Skittles for 2 weeks when we were traveling overseas. Katia sent updates and photos daily how Skittles was doing and what they did that day. Katia and her family, along with their family dog, loved our "social butterfly" pup so Skittles fit right into their home! Skittles was happy to see us but I am sure she would like to go back some time. We will definitely use Katia again.”
“Andrea was amazing from the start. My boy, Humphrey, was stressed and a little clingy and she handled him beautifully. He was happy and relaxed when I picked him up. Would use again, and will!”

“My dog Beau had an excellent stay with Valerie at her home in Honey Harbour. He was with her for 7 days and I felt very confident with her. She gave me updates throughout his stay to ensure he was doing alright. I will definitely be using her as a sitter again!”

“Denise and Mindy were amazing with our dog Lucy. They showered her in love and cuddles while we were away and sent us lots of pictures to reassure us. We would love to have them watch our pup again for us. We highly recommend Denise and Mindy to watch your pup!”

“Sabine was thoughtful, caring and communicative before and throughout Pearl's stay. Pearl loved her and her family! (And came home with an adorable bandana! Thank you, Sabine!”

“Lisa was amazing with my 2 year old bouvier, Molly. I was sent pictures of her walking, resting, investigating Lisa's home and yard. I would definitely recommend her and will use her again if needed. It was Molly's first time away from family and she had never met Lisa before. I was nervous that Molly might cause problems, but she was very comfortable with Lisa. Thank you for such great care.”

“Ruby had a fantastic stay with Danielle over the weekend; she didn’t even want to leave when we got there to pick her up! Danielle took amazing care of Ruby and instantly made her feel right at home. She gave her lots of attention and affection and lots of photo updates. She truly is the dachshund whisperer! I would definitely recommend her for dogs with separation anxiety. We’re very grateful she was available!”

“Rhiannon and Patrick are exactly what we have been looking for. We have 2 Bouviers that need room to roam and people to love and they have found them. With 100 acres and endless trails Sadie and Koda came home happy and tired😀 We will definitely be booking with Rhiannon again.”

“Kristen did a great job looking after Obi. He had a great time playing with Ellie and the other dogs and we loved getting the photo updates. We were never worried about him and were very happy to know he was well cared for.”

“Susan Y took care of our older pompoo, Eddie, for 2 nights. Eddie didn’t want to leave when I went to pick him up, and he’s got a pretty good home life! My first impression of Susan Y is that she’s friendly, personable and communicative! She will be the first person I call if we need someone to take care of Eddie again! We are definitely done with kennels!”

“Danielle provided our 4yo Golden Retriever with a full day of play and exercise. I received many photos and videos throughout her stay and knew she was having the best time with Danielle and her pup. It’s the next day and our dog is still tired!”

“Joan is wonderful and highly recommended. Our dog had such a fun time staying with Joan over the weekend. She sent us many pictures, kept us updates on all he was up too and we were so at ease knowing that our dog was in good hands while we were away. So thankful to have found her !”

About: Senior dog care experience Clean and healthy environment Work from home professional I live in a detached home with a backyard which the dogs can enjoy supervised. Most importantly, I will provide a comfortable and loving environment for your furry friend as if they were my own. I work a professional job full time from home, making it incredibly easy to provide the attention they need as well as to ensure they're safe and comfortable. I go for daily walks and have a backyard which I can let the dogs out throughout the day. The scheduling and attention is not a challenge given my work arrangements. I have a miniature poodle (Theo) myself and can take on 1 small dog at a time. There will be no other pets or dogs present during my care asides from Theo. Given my work arrangements, I have the ability to take care and watch the dogs at all times. I do not crate the animals unless you specifically require it. For the safety of my own dog, I ask that you do not book with me unless your dog is friendly with other dogs.

“I was a little nervous leaving my cat at home while on holiday but Siobhan made the whole experience stress free. From the first meet up to the final day when she dropped off the key, I felt confident Fudge the cat was well looked after. He is 13 yo and on medication, an extremely finicky eater and not especially ‘social’. Each day I got an update with pics or a video. What a relief knowing I didn’t have to worry about him. She’s great, has a warm personality, is reliable and skilled. I have recommended her to friends and would be happy to have her look after Fudge again.”


“Marissa was great! Very responsive and caring. My cat can be a little extra needy and we felt comfortable leaving her in Marissa’s hands. We will definitely book with her again.”

About: I think it is the connection I make with all doggies. I like to make sure they are very happy to be around me and that they have what ever they need. I adjust my actions to look after senior doggies or puppies and all in between. I am retired and my schedule is usually flexible. I am looking to meet new doggies and look after them during the week. I could be available on weekends if needed. We don’t have any pets and have a large rural property. We would discuss the needs of your dog and taylor their needs to make everyone comfortable. We can accommodate off leash and leased dogs.

“Our dog Rocco had the time of his life hanging out with Lisa and Andrew. He had two back to back day care stays. Returning for day two he leaped from our car and tugged me towards Lisa’s door and couldn’t wait for her to answer the door bell. A very good sign he was looking forward to all the love and play time he had with them. Also great communication and sweet pics! 100 percent —high recommendation.”

Ruby had a great time and she was all smiles and tail wags when we picked her up. Susan has a lovely home and I think Ruby really enjoyed herself there. I would highly recommend her services :)”

About: I have been surrounded by dogs my entire life and have always had a deep love and appreciation for animals. Growing up, I had the joy of caring for Shelties, Golden Retrievers, and Papillons, each teaching me the importance of patience, companionship, and understanding every dog’s unique personality. I currently have a Golden Retriever puppy who is very loved, well-socialized, and has the sweetest, most gentle personality. He is extremely well-behaved and will be starting puppy school in July to continue building his training and manners. My partner is also home and able to help care for him, ensuring every pet receives plenty of attention, supervision, and love. If your pup stays with me, they will be welcomed into a safe, caring, and dog-loving home. I want to be transparent that my puppy may be present during stays, but I always prioritize the comfort and needs of your pet. For walks, your dog will receive one-on-one attention — I will take your pup on their own walk rather than walking multiple dogs together. For drop-ins or visits, my focus will be on giving your pet personalized care, affection, and making sure they feel happy and comfortable while you’re away. Your pet will be treated like family here 🐾 I am a teacher and will be off during the months of July and August, which means I have a very flexible schedule and am available for pet care whenever needed. I have plenty of time to provide walks, drop-in visits, playtime, and companionship throughout the day. Starting in September, my availability will depend on whether I accept a teaching position (LTO), but I will always have availability in the evenings and on weekends. I am committed to providing reliable and consistent care and will communicate clearly with each pet parent to make sure your pet’s needs are met. Creating a safe, comfortable, and loving environment for every pet is my top priority. Whether I am caring for your pet in my home or visiting them in theirs, I focus on making sure they feel secure, happy, and well cared for. In my home, pets are welcomed into a calm, clean, and dog-loving environment where they receive lots of attention, affection, playtime, and supervision. I understand that every dog has their own personality, routine, and needs, and I will always take the time to make sure they feel comfortable. My Golden Retriever puppy may be present in my home, but he is extremely friendly, well-behaved, and continuing his training. When caring for pets in their own home, I respect their space and routines while providing dependable care, companionship, walks, feeding, playtime, and lots of love. I know pets feel most comfortable with familiarity, so I aim to keep their normal schedule and environment as consistent as possible. I will always communicate with pet parents, provide updates, and make sure you feel confident knowing your furry family member is safe and cared for while you’re away. 🐾
About: Have had dogs all my life. Just lost our sweet pug at the age of 15. Tended to all of his senior special needs. Have trained several puppies with family pets and missing having a dog to care for. Would love new dogs to spend time with, snuggle and walk! I am at home all day and would love to have a dog to take care of and cherish! I do not work so I’ll be able to give my full attention. We live full time at our cottage and have lots of space for dogs to run and play. Plenty of walking trails nearby for more active dogs.

About: Grew up on a dairy farm, always had animals in my life. I’ve been the designated pet sitter for family and friends. Excited to continue my experiences. I work from home, so my hours are flexible. I play hockey in the winter so I tend to be available and in town in the winter months. Always looking for a reason to exercise or companionship of any type of pet. Following your needs, I am flexible to provide in home care if required. Will update daily if requested, or happy to give you privacy on your vacation.
“Marissa is one of the very few people that understands what it is to be a pack leader. She naturally seems to be one. Madi just took to her the moment she saw her. When getting feedback from the walk, I came to the conclusion that Madi responded differently to Marissa than other walkers because the dog knew who was in charge. I was left impressed - very few naturally have her talent!”
