“Aditya and Ipshita were everything we could ask for and then some. They cared for our dog like a beloved family member and kept us posted throughout his stay. This is the first time we've truly felt comfortable with the care of our dog and I will use them again without hesitation. Thanks Aditya and Ipshita.”
“I couldn’t have asked for a better family to take care of my 10 year old Goldendoodle, Ginger! Anne and Andrew were amazing with caring for her while I was overseas for two months! Anne kept me in the loop with tons of updates and pictures. You could tell Ginger really grew attached to them, and she seemed so comfortable and happy there. She was spoiled and allowed up on the couch and even cuddled up in their bed! They also have an older Goldendoodle who’s the sweetest, and they got along so well. Their place is beautiful, safe, and perfect for dogs. I’d absolutely trust them with Ginger anytime and will definitely use them again. Anne and Andrew are truly wonderful dog sitters!”

What a great pair and what agreat team to take care of the pups. Thank you both!”

“Sara took excellent care of our energetic Airedale terrier. He had multiple walks, a clean and spacious house, and large fenced backyard. She sent us plenty of photos and updates, and we knew that our dog was very well cared for. They have 2 friendly, non-aggressive dogs that played well with our dog. I highly recommend Sara and Cody for anyone who wants exceptional care for their dog.”
“Natasha and Sandro were amazing! This was my first time leaving Riley overnight, so I was a bit anxious, but they were super reassuring and kept me updated the whole time. They were really communicative, and it was clear Riley was happy and well taken care of. She came home relaxed and content. I was really happy with the experience. I’d definitely book with them again!”

“Rohit was a great dog sitter for my Golden retriever pup! My dog seemed like he had a great time as Rohit took him on many walks in his neighbourhood. He sent regular updates throughout the day and informed me of any mishaps that happened. My dog came back home safe and happy!”
“Our dogs had a wonderful stay with Donna and her family! Both Gus and Winnie are senior dogs (14 and 13) who have been going to the same kennel for 10 years. When our kennel had to cancel last minute we were at a loss as we had a 3 week trip coming up -over the Easter holiday - and no one to watch the dogs. This was our first Rover experience and I’m so glad it worked out! Gus and Winnie have never stayed with anyone else so we were really nervous. Donna was so great at making both dogs comfortable and communicating with us while we were away. Gus had some issues early on (we think due to stress) and Donna went out of her way to adjust her schedule and his surroundings so that he was comfortable. Winnie is your typical snuggly Pug and I could tell she was right at home by the photos sent of her snuggling on the couch and hanging out with Donna’s children. Would definitely recommend Donna - thank you!”

About: I have been taking care of pets around my neighbourhood when they go away for a vacation, a short trip or just need me to pop in to check on them. I have looked after older cats with disability’s and also dogs aged 6 to senior ages. I love animals more then people so you know your furry friends will be taken care of like they are my own. I am currently working full time but would love to walk or check in on your pups while I’m home or have a day off. Anything that the owner needs I will accommodate. I have had clients in the past who’s pets needed medication at a certain time and there is no problem following these expectations.
“Danielle is an excellent cat sitter and took wonderful care of our Piper. We felt very confidant about being away that everything would be taken care of…..and it was. Five stars ⭐️”

“Bette Joe was a fantastic cat sitter! She took great care of my cat, kept in touch regularly, and sent adorable photo updates that really put my mind at ease. Her communication was clear and timely, and it was obvious she genuinely cared. Highly recommend!”
About: I’ve been caring for animals since I was 12 years old and grew up surrounded by dogs my entire life. Over the years, I’ve also cared for a chameleon, hamster, and ferret, which gave me experience with a wide range of pet needs and personalities. I adopted my dog Maia 3 years ago, and she’s full of energy with a big personality, which has taught me a lot about active dogs, structure, and keeping playtime both fun and safe. I also adopted my cat when I was 20. She was very feisty, and no one else wanted to handle her, but I built a strong bond with her over time. We also went through a lot together, including managing her diabetes, so I’m very comfortable and experienced with giving medication and administering insulin injections when needed. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I always aim to provide calm, attentive, and loving care so every animal feels safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away ❤️
“We cannot recommend Tanya enough! She has looked after our three cats several times, including once for an extended vacation, and every time we’ve been thrilled with her care. Tanya is attentive, thorough, and genuinely caring. She takes the time to play with them, brush them, and check on their well-being. She keeps everything clean and organized, and it’s obvious she loves what she does. Coming home after our last trip, our boys were relaxed and calm, something that has never happened after a longer time away. We know Tanya does everything she can to make them feel comfortable while we’re gone, and it gives us total peace of mind knowing they’re in such capable hands. They’ve even been waiting for her at the door since we returned, they absolutely adore her! Tanya is, without a doubt, the best cat sitter we’ve ever had.”
“Sara and Cody are incredible people who took amazing care of my fur baby. Charlotte was very well cared for, and Sara truly went above and beyond to make sure she was happy, comfortable, and loved. I couldn't have asked for better care, and I highly recommend them!”
“Natalie was absolutely fantastic! She was incredibly communicative throughout our time away and sent us lots of pictures and updates, which we really appreciated. She was wonderful with our cat, Ellie Rose Princess, and it was clear she was very well cared for and got lots of attention. We came home to an immaculate house, which was such a nice bonus. Natalie went above and beyond, and we felt completely comfortable knowing Ellie Rose Princess and our home were in such good hands. We would absolutely use Natalie again and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and trustworthy pet sitter!”
“Nicole was absolutely fantastic! She went above and beyond for us and we couldn’t be more grateful for all her help during our trip out of town. She truly calmed all our worries and our cat loved her and will most definitely be rebooking her in the future.”

“Laura and her wonderful family are truly one of a kind! From the moment Cooper stayed with them, I knew he was in the best hands. Laura, her husband, and their two sweet toddlers welcomed him like part of the family and treated him with so much love and care. Cooper came home happy, relaxed, and clearly adored. It’s obvious how much attention and affection they give, and it meant the world to know he was safe, comfortable, and genuinely loved while we were away. I can’t recommend Laura highly enough; she and her family are the absolute sweetest, and we feel so lucky to have found them! 🐾💛”

About: I’ve been around dogs all my life and am super attentive to their every needs. I just love being around them so much and am known by friends and family as an over the top dog lover and owner in the best way possible! I am free most days and spend most of my days prioritizing being around dogs of some sort, be it going to dog sanctuaries or just taking care of my own dog :) I am not only attentive towards dogs and their wellbeing but I am also very attentive towards people’s belongings as I would want others to do the same. I am also very big on making sure the dog has comfort no matter what be it making sure they have their favourite toy with them or just being affectionate to them.

About: An enthusiastic dog lover and cat owner for all my life! I currently own one kitty, and am a dedicated foster home for our local cat shelter since 2016, where I have helped raise kittens from birth on multiple occasions. I am also responsible for the care and safety of a variety of animals such as hamsters, guinea pigs, reptiles, birds and fish at my current workplace of 3 years — not to mention all of the pet parents who come into the store with their dogs to visit with! I have so much love and expertise to go around for all felines, canines, and specialty pets! I work my other job on Wednesday and Saturday mornings, and get involved occasionally with local volunteer work, but for the most part my schedule is quite open and flexible! If any interested clients prefer to contact me directly regarding availability, I do my best to be very timely in responding to messages. I am very committed to the work and care required to keep pets safe and happy! I value integrity and commitment, and I strive to be a sitter you can always rely on. Though I don't currently board pets to my own home, I always like to ensure I know of every pet's needs in their own home, where their favourite treat is located or keeping their favourite napping spot nice and clean. I can adapt to almost any environment, and once you return it will be such a clean and happy space you might believe I was never there!
About: I have hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats through overnight stays, drop-in visits and dog walking. I’ve cared for pets with many different personalities, from energetic and playful to shy, nervous and anxious. I’m patient and take the time to let each pet become comfortable with me at their own pace. I follow their regular routines, including feeding, walks, potty breaks, playtime and lots of love and attention. I especially love seeing a shy/anxious pet begin to trust me and become my little shadow. Building relationships with pets and having families trust me to care for them again is one of my favourite parts of pet sitting. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. As a kindergarten educator, I’m available for morning visits before work, evenings, weekends, holidays, and overnight stays during the school year. During the summer, I have much greater flexibility and am available throughout the day, allowing me to accommodate a wider range of schedules and your pet’s routine. I plan my schedule carefully to ensure every pet receives the time, attention, and loving care they deserve. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being are always my top priorities. I believe pets are happiest in the comfort of their own home, where they can maintain their familiar routine and surroundings. I take the time to get to know each pet’s personality, needs, and preferences so I can provide calm, personalized care tailored to them. Before any booking, I offer a free Meet & Greet so we can get to know each other, discuss your pet’s routine, and ensure we’re the right fit for one another. I also ask all pet parents to complete a detailed intake form, which helps me learn about your pet’s routine, medical needs, preferences, and any special instructions so I can provide the best care possible. For dog walking clients, I also like to do a short practice walk so your dog can get comfortable with me before our first scheduled walk. I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages throughout each visit, so you can have peace of mind knowing your furry family member is in caring, trustworthy hands.
About: I have been taking care of animals of all shapes, sizes, breeds, and species as long as I can remember. I am very cognizant of all the animals in my care and find I can read their cues like a book. I am learning dog training and have worked hard with my dog on his skills. I am no stranger to giving pups medication as well, let me know what your pups needs and I can take care of them as if they were my own! I am currently a stay-at-home mom of 1, so I have lots of time and love to give your furry family. We are quite flexible so let us know your needs for care and we will be happy to oblige! We have a large fenced backyard, the dog beach nearby and 2 dog parks not far from our house. We have 2 dogs and 3 cats in the home so we are very familiar with accommodating different personalities and their needs! We can crate pups if they need some space or we have a deck that they can lay on to get some sun.
About: I grew up raising dogs from puppies to senior dogs, volunteering in shelters and have spent my life reading their body language, energy and needs. I specialize in calm, structured walks that help dogs feel safe, confident and balanced-especially those who struggle with anxiety or over stimulation. I don't rush, overwhelm, or force; I lead with patience, consistency, and quiet confidence so a dog can relax and trust the walk. I also have deep experience caring for senior dogs. I recently said good bye to our family Weimaraner Lexi, who taught me the importance of gentleness, awareness and dignity in every stage of a dog's life. Whether your dog needs confidence building, a steady routine, or thoughtful care tailored to their age and temperament, I treat every dog as an individual-never just another booking. Right now, I'm primarily available on weekends, with some flexibility for weekday evening walks or drop-ins. I'm intentional about my schedule so every visit stays calm, unrushed, and consistent-especially important for anxious dog who rely on routine. My availability will be expanding in the near future as I transition towards pet care as a primary focus. This means increased weekday flexibility and priority scheduling for repeat clients who value long-term consistency. I'll always be clear and upfront about availability before confirming a booking, so there are no surprises-for you or your dog. My home is calm, structured, and safety-focused. Dogs are cared for with clear routines, close supervision, and attention to body language and stress levels. I prioritize consistency so dogs feel secure and know what to expect. This is the same standard I follow with my own Doberman, who receives structured daily walks, routine feedings, constant access to fresh water, and regular training, trust-building exercises, and enrichment puzzles. I keep the environment clean, low-stress, and intentional, so dogs can relax and feel confident while in my care.

About: I have loved and taken care of animals since age 10 - when I welcomed my first bunny for my 10th birthday. Since then I have also taken care of hamsters, birds, dogs, and cats. I am an expert in providing an environment where they can be comfortable and profusely loved, but I do not forget firm discipline where necessary. I am fully available on weekends for walks, drop-ins, and house sitting but I do require at least a 2-day notice. Additionally, I am available for walks and drop-ins all weekday evenings, anytime after 7 PM. At my client's home I have the best practices of pet- and property-handling honed down, which will keep both the client's pet(s) and property (as well as myself) safe and happy at all times. I trust that I will be provided with all the information I need to satisfy any expectations from my hosts during my visits. At my own home, I have two cats, but I have enough space and accommodations to keep my client's pet(s) separated and happy as necessary.

“I couldn’t have asked for a better family to take care of my 10 year old Goldendoodle, Ginger! Anne and Andrew were amazing with caring for her while I was overseas for two months! Anne kept me in the loop with tons of updates and pictures. You could tell Ginger really grew attached to them, and she seemed so comfortable and happy there. She was spoiled and allowed up on the couch and even cuddled up in their bed! They also have an older Goldendoodle who’s the sweetest, and they got along so well. Their place is beautiful, safe, and perfect for dogs. I’d absolutely trust them with Ginger anytime and will definitely use them again. Anne and Andrew are truly wonderful dog sitters!”
“We feel so blessed to have met Amanda!!! Mabel was treated like family! Amanda communicated often with updates and pictures! It was so nice to be on vacation without a worry about her! Highly recommend Amanda and will definitely bring Mabel to her again in the future!”
“What can I say about Geo & Amanda? A wo perfume place to have your pet (s) stay. They are so easy going and accommodating. They relieved any stress I could have had about leaving my pups while I was off getting married. Lots of communication and pictures sent to add to my comfort. What a great pair and what agreat team to take care of the pups. Thank you both!”
“Dale has looked after my golden doodle Dani many times.This time for a week while I went on a ski trip. She is totally reliable and trustworthy. She is gentle and kind and clearly loves Dani!”
“This is our 4th time using Sheila's services. Riley gets so excited each time she gets to stay. It feels like a home away from home for her. We always know Riley is loved and well cared for. No hesitation in rebooking.”
“Sara took excellent care of our energetic Airedale terrier. He had multiple walks, a clean and spacious house, and large fenced backyard. She sent us plenty of photos and updates, and we knew that our dog was very well cared for. They have 2 friendly, non-aggressive dogs that played well with our dog. I highly recommend Sara and Cody for anyone who wants exceptional care for their dog.”
“Natasha and Sandro were amazing! This was my first time leaving Riley overnight, so I was a bit anxious, but they were super reassuring and kept me updated the whole time. They were really communicative, and it was clear Riley was happy and well taken care of. She came home relaxed and content. I was really happy with the experience. I’d definitely book with them again!”
“Kimberly is a second home for Stanley! He LOVES her and her family so much and she takes incredible care of him. She really puts a fur momma at ease with her kindness and love towards him. We are so grateful”
“Erika did a wonderful job caring for my cat over the last 10 days while I was away. I was pleased to hear he got along well hanging out with her two cats. Manny definitely got spoiled rotten going by his very happy attitude, and super soft fur, he was getting all the pets XD so if you're reading this review I would definitely recommend her as a sitter!”
“Mike was amazing looking after our fur baby Milo. He wasn't stressed after we picked him up at Mike's home. Thank you Mike for taking care of Milo and we truly appreciate it and thank you for the accommodation you provided Milo. We promise not to be late in picking him up again next time.”
“Liz is excellent service provider. We used her service first time, no complaints at all. She fed our dog on time shared tons of photos with us of him playing eating and sleeping every day. I highly recommend her.”
“Our dog was well looked after by Sal and family, clearly having a great time while we were away. Good communication, organized and flexible in planning our dogs stay at their home. Thanks!”
“We had an amazing experience with Brenda. Brenda and her family went above and beyond to make sure our puppy was comfortable, loved and happy. They took her for daily walks too although the weather was very cold. This was our first experience leaving our puppy with someone else and turned out pretty well. I definitely recommend Brenda and her nice family.”
“Our dog Odin has never been happier at a kennel than he was staying here. He loved all the exercise and running around and he loved getting to stay inside the house and feel like part of the family. Santanna was great with providing regular updates and sending pictures of Odin during his stay. I highly recommend Santanna and her services. Your pet will be safe and cared for like they are at home.”
About: I've had dogs and cats my whole life. They aren't just pets though, they are part of the family! We currently have a 2 year old black lab/boxer. I always want the best for my dog and I know you do too! I am currently retired and home all day every day! Your dogs will never be alone. In fact, I love taking them for walks through the forest and playing with them in the backyard! My dog has the run of the house and is allowed everywhere in the house and the backyard is entirely fenced in. They are allowed to go in and out on their own as much as they want to!
“Many thanks to Jacqueline for making Bosco so at home while we were away. The daily updates let us know all was good. Jacqueline handled Bosco's little idiosyncrasies with laughter and love! Jacqueline's dog, Pete, is friendly and happy and the two dogs were immediately comfortable with each other.”
