“Holly made our first Rover experience a positive one! Our dog Penny seemed very comfortable and we loved getting regular updates from Holly. We were able to enjoy our 1st family vacation without any worries and will book again with her in the future!”
“Deb & James did a fantastic job with Nino!! They would send us daily updates with the cutest photos and videos while we were away. We missed little Nino, but we knew he had been in great hands since day one. Deb & James are so kind and lovely, and we highly recommend them as pet sitters! We cannot thank them enough for being so patient with Nino and ensuring he felt comfortable and at ease with them (he is a very fearful chihuahua.) When we picked him up, we could tell that Nino loved them and had the best time while he was staying with them. THANK YOU!!”
“Brigit was absolutely amazing from the first time I spoke with her to the day I picked up my boy! The love she has for animals (great dane in my case) is unbelievable as my dog walked in and felt right at home during the meet and greet. Brigit loves to find out every small detail about your pet so she can make sure your pet is treated the exact way they are at home! She sends lots of updates which I appreciate. We have a large breed which involved some strict guidelines and Brigit followed everything so carefully. I HIGHLY recommend her and Robert and will most definitely be booking again! What a wonderful experience, and I didn't feel stressed at all while we were gone. Thank You!”
“I had never boarded my dogs, an old, scared Golden Retriever and an energetic Border Collie-X so I was worried. When I met Robyn and saw her setup, I was confident that she was a good choice. Both dogs took to her right away. While I was away, Robyn sent me updates and photos every day. My Golden, Dakota didn't want to do much...I expected that. Genie, the border collie-x had a great time. She even found a playmate in one of the day borders. Robyn says my girls are always welcome back. I highly recommend her.”
“Saskia took excellent care of Ripley, and even got the stinger out of her foot when she was stung by a bee! Ripley was super comfortable with her, and had a great time!”
“She is simply the best! My cat Aurelio didn't miss me at all because he was having the best time of his life with Danesha. She sent me daily updates and played with my cat all the time. Highly recommended!!!!”
“Stephen, Holly, and their family were wonderful hosts for our puppy, Cedar! This was Cedar’s first overnight stay away from us, and we came home to a happy, healthy, and tired pup. We really appreciated the photo updates, prompt communication, reliability, and their willingness to care for a high energy 6.5 month old puppy. It gave us great peace of mind while we were away. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with them again in the future!”
“Melissa is really warm and welcoming - we left our 11 month old puppy for 5 days. Although we were nervous to leave him, he was well taken care of and we will use Melissa in the future!”
“Luke has been beyond amazing with Wall-E. We do not trust most people with our dog but Wall-E had an instant connection with Luke. Luke was extremely attentive to all of Wall-E's needs and kept us updated multiple times during the day. Towards the middle of our trip our anxiety about Wall-E was all gone. Would highly recommend Luke to any dog parent. Thanks Luke!”
“Josephine recently took care of my 2 standard poodles - 12 years old and 4 years old. The 4 year old was rehomed to me a year ago and is a challenging dog. Josephine was just fantastic with both of them - taking care of the 12 year old's mobility issues and making sure the 4 year old was exercised and entertained. It was so clear from the photos Josephine sent that both pups were having a grand time and we have already booked their next stay!”
“Heather is our number one choice. Our dog is comfortable and welcome by her entire family in thier lovely home. What more could anyone ask for?? Thank you Heather and Family. 😊”
“Ricci is amazing. She adores our Bernedoodle Westley like he is her own, and she’s always taking time to send me pictures, videos and updates. I wouldn’t leave Westley with anyone else!!!”
“Pamesha and her husband took excellent care of our dog Korra. They were communicative, sending daily photos of Korra having a fantastic time in their care. They both clearly love dogs and understand how to take care of them. We will certainly be leaving Korra with Pamesha again in the future :)”
“Indy was well looked after at Kristiina’s home. She was in very good spirits when I picked her up. Kristiina adapted (enjoyed!) to her little quirks easing any stress that Indy might have had with her first stay. I will not hesitate to leave Indy in her care in the future.”

About: I've been the go-to pet sitter for family and friends since I was 16, caring for dogs of all ages, from energetic puppies to senior dogs who need a slower pace and extra attention. I'm comfortable administering medications and following specific care instructions to help keep pets happy, healthy, and on their normal routine. I understand that every dog has a unique personality and needs, and I take the time to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your dog. My goal is to provide reliable, attentive care and give owners peace of mind knowing their pet is in good hands. I'm partially retired and have a flexible schedule, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the pets in my care. As a former dog mom, I miss the companionship, walks, joy and love that dogs bring to everyday life, which is what inspired me to join Rover. Whether your dog needs a walk, company during the day, or extra attention while you're away, I'm able to provide reliable care and accommodate a variety of schedules. I genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs and look forward to making them feel safe and comfortable. Safety and trust are my top priorities. I carefully follow each owner's instructions regarding routines, feeding, medications, and any special needs. During walks, I pay close attention to my surroundings and your dog's comfort level to help ensure a safe and positive experience. I understand that every dog is different, and I take the time to build trust at their pace. My goal is to provide consistent, dependable care so both you and your pet feel comfortable and confident.
“Myriam did an excellent job on all levels with the feeding, litter cleaning, entertaining Polly and especially keeping me posted both with pics and messages so I was always confident and happy that all was well. Myriam was also very professional in her approach to the assignment making sure visits were timely, and really went all out to leave things clean and tidy I will highly recommend Myriam to others an my own future use. Thanks Myriam”
About: I've always been a cat person and have plenty of hands-on experience caring for cats of all ages. I rescued two kittens and adopted a rescue cat while I was living in Toronto, so I know every cat has their own unique personality and likes to do things on their own terms! My oldest cat is 19 years old and has diabetes, so I'm comfortable administering medication and keeping a close eye on changes in her health and routine. Whether your cat loves to play, prefers quiet company, or just wants someone to keep their food bowl full and litter box spotless, I'm happy to care for them the way they're most comfortable. My goal is to make sure your cat feels safe, relaxed, and well cared for until you're back home.
About: I obtained a Bachelor of Science degree in Animal Biology from the University of Guelph and completed the Veterinary Technology program at St. Lawrence College. With experience caring for dogs and cats of all breeds, ages, and sizes, I bring a strong foundation in animal care and a genuine passion for their well-being. I work as a Registered Veterinary Technologist at an animal hospital Tuesday-Friday, with Saturday-Monday off. However, I am very flexible and can accommodate your pet care needs, including staying at your home and commuting to work if required. Your pet’s comfort and well-being are my top priorities, and I am committed to providing attentive and reliable care. With 7 years of post-secondary education in the field of animal medicine, I am committed to providing the highest standard of care for your pet. I treat every pet as if they were a member of my own family, ensuring their safety, comfort, and happiness at all times.
About: Hi! I’m a third year Queen’s University student who seriously misses having dogs around while I’m at school! Back home, I have six dogs of my own (yes, six lol! chaos, love, and fur everywhere), and I’ve fostered over 100 dogs throughout my lifetime with many different dog rescues. Basically, my life resume is just… dogs. I love pups of all ages, from high-energy puppies to sweet senior dogs who just want a slower stroll and some extra love. A few of my dogs have been through puppy school, where we both learned tricks, so I’m comfortable reinforcing basic training, routines, and good walking manners. I truly believe dogs are better than humans (no offence), and I treat every dog like they’re my own. Whether your pup needs a long adventure walk, a potty break, or just someone who genuinely loves being around dogs, I’ve got them covered. Your dog’s safety, happiness, and tail wags are always my top priority 🐾 Since I am a university student with a mix of in-person and online classes, that leaves me with lots of consistent free time between classes. My schedule doesn’t change week to week, and I’m free most weekends for walks, drop-ins, and quality pup time! When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always follow their routines closely so they feel safe, comfortable, and happy. I have experience with dogs of all ages and temperaments, from playful puppies to gentle seniors, and I treat every dog like they’re my own. I prioritize safety on walks, keep spaces tidy, and provide regular updates and photos so owners can relax knowing their pup is in great hands:)
“Thomas did an great job with our cat Rosie. I really felt like she was loved while there. The house itself was also spacious so she had lots of space to roam. Rosie has medical issues and so needs meds at very specific times of day and Thomas made sure to let us know that she got them. I would definitely have him cat-sit for is again 😊”
About: Absolutely! Here's the same question answered specifically from the perspective of an experienced **cat sitter**: --- I have over 5 years of experience as a cat sitter and currently have two cats of my own, so I truly understand the unique behaviours, needs, and personalities of feline companions. What sets me apart is my deep patience and intuitive approach to building trust with cats, especially those who are shy, territorial, or take time to warm up to new people. I have experience caring for cats of all ages, from playful kittens to senior cats who may need medication, special diets, or gentle handling. I’m confident with administering oral medications, grooming long-haired breeds, managing litter boxes, and providing enrichment through play and stimulation. I also have experience with multi-cat households and understand the importance of maintaining routines, respecting boundaries, and recognizing signs of stress or illness early on. I keep pet parents updated with daily photos and detailed reports, and I always treat every cat like they’re my own — with love, respect, and a calm, reassuring presence.
About: I'm an experienced and hard-working sitter in the Kingston area, offering peace of mind that your home and little ones are well taken care of in your absence. I have lived with animals my entire life. Naturally, I understand you're seeking the best possible care for your little ones, and that's exactly what I strive to provide. I've been a Pawshake sitter since February 2019 and have been loving every moment of making so many new four-legged friends! About my services: HOME VISITS consist of one afternoon or evening visit that lasts up to 45 minutes, depending on your pet's needs. During this visit, I would feed your pet(s), refresh their water dish, play & socialize with them, clean their litter box, and so on. I'm also happy to water your plants, bring your mail inside and take out garbage/recycling when needed. HOME BOARDING at my spacious, ground-level apartment means that your cat or dog would stay with me and my pets for overnights over an extended period of time. You can rest assured that your feline friends will get tons of pats and cuddles, and that dogs will be walked twice a day with plenty of opportunities to run around the yard in between. All you need to bring is their food, treats, and leash! I also offer HOUSE SITTING. The house sitting option means Birdie, Bowie and I would stay at your residence round the clock, provided I don’t have any bookings for home boarding at the requested time. This service would be ideal for households with both cats and dogs, or for animals who have a harder time adjusting to new environments. My apartment is puppy-proofed, equipped with puppy pads if needed, two litter boxes (scooped daily), and lots of toys, beds, and treats for cats and dogs alike. It's clean and spacious, with big windows for bird-watching. I have a very large, fenced-in yard for tons of extra play time, rain or shine. I have installed pet gates with built-in cat doors throughout the apartment, so cats and small dogs can have their privacy away from the larger guests when I am unable to supervise. About my pets: I have two pets of my own: An easygoing, playful, and extremely dog-savvy black cat named Gigi Luigi (4 years, male, neutered) who loves making new kitty friends, and a flat coat retriever/labradoodle named Bowie (3 years, female, spayed). Both would relish the extra company and have been socialized to respect animals of all shapes and sizes. Both are also up to date on their vaccines. I think that covers it! Thanks for giving my page a gander. I hope to meet you and your little ones soon! ☺️ I do work full-time as a community mental health nurse, but working in the community means I can drop by my home for short visits as many times per day as needed, and spend my lunch break at home every day as well. I take Bowie for 1-2 off leash adventures every day, whether or not I am working. I have a large, fenced yard and a friendly pup of my own to keep yours occupied, and would be taking them on and off leash adventure at least once a day, regardless of whether I work. I also have the flexibility to pop into my home throughout the day on days I do work, so the pups get frequent potty breaks and are never left alone for long stretches.

“Charles took amazing care of Mario! When we picked him up, Mario was happily tired out after all the playing. We were visiting Gananoque on a trip, and it was such a relief to have Charles look after him while we went on a cruise.”
“Luke was great with Cow! She immediately started playing with her toys with him and that’s a rare occurrence with strangers. She was pooped after a day of walks with him and it was nice to know that she could get some exercise and some couch cuddles, the perfect balance for her. Luke was keen to oblige to all the picky requirements that a chihuahua has. 20/10 would leave Cow with Luke again! Thanks for being flexible with booking and for taking good care of her!”

“Nicole was great with Jackson and flexible when our timings changed unexpectedly. Jackson was happy and stress free when we picked him up. We will be repeat customers for sure.”
About: For over 3 decades, I have been providing high quality care to extended fur family, as well as to those of our friends and neighbors who have been generous enough to lend me some of their pets' time. From big dogs to small dogs, young dogs to old dogs, our single-family detached home and fully fenced yard is sure to provide a warm and comfortable environment for your well-natured, and good-with-kids pup. I work from home 3 weekdays days out of 5, and can come home for lunch on those 2 days where I have to be in the office to let your pup out and provide food and water. Long walks, lots of fetch, and plenty of pictures are in store if you choose to trust our family with your fur babies. We have one family dog already, a 5-year old pug named George, who has shown himself to be very good with other dogs, both big and small. We take long walks around the neighborhood, stopping to say high to other dogs and their owners. We also occasionnaly go to the dog park Kingston East, or sometimes further afield for beach days or hikes on local trails or conservation areas. Our pug naturally sleeps on the bed with us (we couldn't stop him if we tried), so we'db be delighted to extend your dog the same courtesy. They'd become a part of the family.
“Daniel was so great watching my little guy Harvey! He really took the time to learn about Harvey’s walk schedule, what some of his favourite games are and you could tell he just really loves dogs!”
“Paige and Vanessa took great care of my dog! They communicated often and updates were much appreciated. My dog was very content and happy which is awesome because he has some separation anxiety and I was worried about leaving him.”
“I booked Rose for my dog Luna and the experience overall was smooth and easy. Communication was friendly, scheduling was simple, and I appreciated the updates during the day. Luna came home happy and tired, which is always a good sign! Thank you for taking good care of her.”
“Kirti was very pleasant to deal with. We really did appreciate her taking our pup last minute when we had plans come up. It was very obvious that Bo was having a terrific time with Kirti. He made himself at home on her bed and on her lap and the pictures and videos through out the day showed how well Kirti took care of him.”
“Pamesha cared for our two pups on short notice. Was quick to communicate, good location for downtown Kingston and friendly. Appreciated the pictures. Would trust Pamesha with our pups again.”
“Our dog took to Peter right away! Steeler had a blast playing with Peter’s dog and we were entirely comfortable with Peter’s care for a day. He was flexible and responsive too. No hesitations to recommend his services.”
About: Our family included a sweet cat who lived to the age of 19. We also have a dog who is 5 years old and we understand the joys of puppy training. We enjoyed Puppy school and agility training and understand what is required to keep dogs happy and well exercised. I recently retired and I am looking for ways to stay active and dog walking is an activity that I enjoy. We currently have our own dog and he loves companions when appropriate. If your pet is not social- no problem! I have a fully fenced yard and a 5 year old mini golden doodle who loves furry friends. I enjoy long walks and am well prepared with treats and water. Rain or snow don't deter me from a walk- its always enjoyable with the right outerwear! I have attended puppy school with my dog and understand the concepts of dog behavior and how to keep dogs in control, engaged and happy.
“Ana was very friendly, polite and knew exactly how to take care of my Chico. Definitely recommend her to anyone who need to leave their furbabies either for a few hours or a few days.”
“Heather did a great job with Rigby. He was anxious to be away from us but she gave him the attention he needed and he rallied well. I really appreciated the interaction throughout the day. Highly recommend Heather if you need a pet carer.”
About: Dear pawrents, I have taken care of dogs since I have memory. When I was born, a beautiful German shepherd was brought home and we grew up together, since then, my love for dogs (and all animals) is inexplicable. I have taken care of my own dogs (Belgian and German shepherd, lab, schnauzer, dachshund, mixed, etc.). I have taken care of senior dogs with different needs (medication, carrying them to walk, etc.) and some dogs with diseases such as chronic seizures, cancer and arthritis. As a pet owner myself, I totally get it! Our pets aren't just pets, they're family. And that's why I'm on a mission to give them the VIP treatment they deserve. I'm currently working in a remote (work from home) position, so I have availability to take care of your puppy/ies during the day. I’m available for boarding during the weekends with some breaks in between so I can take care of my own dogs. I prioritize the comfort and well-being of the pets while respecting the routines and preferences set by the owners. Here's how I typically approach it: - Initial Consultation: I start by scheduling an initial consultation with the owners to discuss their dog's needs, routines, feeding schedules, medical history, and any specific instructions or preferences they may have. - Visits: During my visits, I ensure that the dogs have access to food, water, and a clean environment. I follow their feeding schedule and provide any necessary medications or supplements as instructed by the owners. - Exercise and Playtime: I engage the dogs in regular exercise and playtime sessions to keep them mentally and physically stimulated. This could include walks, play sessions in the backyard, or games indoors (depending on the weather). - Potty Breaks: I take the dogs out for regular potty breaks according to their usual schedule, ensuring that they are comfortable and their living space remains clean. - Updates and Communication: Throughout my time with the dog(s), I maintain open communication with the owners, providing updates and photos to reassure them that their pets are in good hands. - Security and Safety: I take measures to ensure the security and safety of the home, such as checking that doors and windows are securely locked and being mindful of any potential hazards in the environment. Overall, my goal is to provide personalized and attentive care to dogs in their own familiar surroundings, minimizing stress and ensuring a positive experience for both the pets and their owners.
“Saskia was amazing!! She always kept me updated and took so many cute pictures of my pup. Her and her family took wonderful care of him while I worked this weekend. Definitely will be booking with her again and I recommend her to anyone looking for pet care in a comfortable and welcoming environment.”
About: We have a quiet, orderly home with regular routines. Our last dog lived to be 16 years old and needed quite intensive care in the last year. We live in a quiet neighbourhood and are happy to take your pet to the dog park nearby or the Lemoine Point walking trail. I have few daily commitments outside of the home and am seldom gone for more than an hour or two. An anxious or timid dog would do well in my care. I believe in plenty of walks and playtime with favourite toys. I’m also happy to let them cuddle with me as much as they want.
“Nicole provided excellent care for our little Zander. We had traveled far from home for a family event and needed someone to look after him for a few hours. Nicole was a very caring and calming person who was able to bond with our nervous dog right away. I was thrilled to see the pictures of him out shopping and walking with another dog.”
About: Hi, I’m Elsa! 🐾 Animals have been a huge part of my life for as long as I can remember. I’ve been caring for pets for family, friends, and people in my community since I was 16 years old, and it’s truly one of my greatest passions. I live in Kingston in a spacious home with a fully fenced backyard that’s perfect for pets of all sizes. I happily welcome both small and large dogs, as well as cats and other small animals. 👩🏻💻 I work from home full-time, so your pets will rarely be left alone. They’ll receive plenty of love, attention, playtime, walks, and cuddles throughout the day. 💕 I grew up with dogs, cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, birds, fish, and turtles, so I’m comfortable caring for a wide variety of animals. Every pet has its own personality, and I always take the time to follow their routine and make them feel safe and loved. When your pet stays with me, I care for them as if they were my own. You’ll also receive regular photo updates and messages, so you can relax knowing they’re in good hands. I can’t wait to meet your furry (or not-so-furry!) family member and give them all the love and care they deserve. ❤️ MY SERVICES • Boarding in my home (all sizes welcome) • Drop-in visits at your home • Daily walks • Available days, evenings, and overnight • Short- and long-term stays • Medication administration if needed • Full-time work-from-home supervision Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I work from home full-time. I’m home throughout the day, so your pet will receive plenty of attention, companionship, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and cuddles (not just before and after work). I enjoy keeping pets on their usual routine and making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Caring for animals is something I genuinely love, and I make sure every pet gets the time and attention they deserve. I believe the best pet care starts with getting to know each animal. Before every booking, I take the time to learn about their habits, favourite activities, energy level, and anything that helps them feel comfortable. For dogs, that might mean walks, outdoor play, games, or simply relaxing together. For cats, it could be quiet company, playtime when they feel like it, or respecting their space. I always follow your instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, medication, and any special needs. When pets stay in my home, they also have access to a fully fenced backyard for safe outdoor time and fresh air. Whether I’m caring for your pet in my home or yours, my goal is simple: to make them feel happy, safe, and loved while you’re away, so you can enjoy complete peace of mind.
About: I’ve had dogs and cats my whole life, and caring for animals has always been a huge part of who I am. I also fostered a court-rescue dog through the SPCA for over a year, giving me valuable experience with anxious and nervous pets. I’m experienced with rescue dogs, puppies, senior pets, and multi-pet households. I have a calm, pet-friendly cat at home and a fully fenced yard for safe outdoor play. Since I work from home, pets in my care receive plenty of attention, regular walks, playtime, and a consistent routine. Friends and neighbours regularly trust me with their pets because I’m reliable, attentive, and genuinely love what I do. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness will always be my top priority. 🐾❤️ I work from home, so your pet will enjoy plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship throughout the day. I’m available for boarding, dog walks, and drop-in visits. In my home, your dog will enjoy a secure environment with a fully fenced grass yard for safe outdoor play and fresh air. Since I have a resident cat who is very laid back, I primarily welcome guest dogs who are already comfortable and friendly with feline companions. Because I am currently based at home, I can offer constant supervision and a consistent routine that mirrors your pet's life at home. Whether I am boarding a dog or visiting a cat for a drop-in, I focus on personalized care, ensuring they are well-exercised, fed on schedule, and given plenty of attention. My background with rescue animals means I am highly observant of body language, so I’m always making sure every pet feels relaxed and at ease, whether we’re relaxing in the garden or out for a walk.

“Mikaela is the best! She is reliable, trustworthy, friendly, kind, and is great with our dogs!! She takes the time to get to know your dog which was really helpful for us and our 8 yr old stubborn terrier. Her background and experience in animal care is an added bonus.”
“Working with Rebecca has been so great! She walked my guy Einstein for close to two months daily. While also visiting my cat and giving them both treats. Additionally I booked her to take care of Einstein and Anquan in my unit, while I went to Las Vegas for 4 days. Becca is great to work with, trustworthy, thoughtful, and reliable. I’ll continue to request her in the future!!”
About: I can still remember getting my first pup when I was around 5 years old. He was a lot a work! But that didn't stop me. I have had experience with a variety of breeds and ages. I started working for a dog walking/sitting company and from then I went on to get my Veterinarian Assistant Certificate. I was an Animal Control Officer for 3 years and now currently work in a Animal Shelter environment on most weekends. From walking to feeding to bathing to giving medications and of course lots of love you can trust your dog with me. I'm currently at home during the week with my two children, (2.5 & 4) and work every other weekend. Pet care in my home would be from Monday- Friday, time and amount of days is flexible. Also could fit in a few weekends here and there if needed. I have a large partially fenced in yard. However, for safety I would prefer not to let your dog off leash and most likely do more walks. I have a 2.5 year old daughter and a small dog to keep your pup company. They are excellent in playing but also love their cuddles and comfort. I am also okay to crate your dog if need be.
About: I am Pet First Aid certified and certified through Fear Free’s Shelter Program and Boarding & Daycare Program, which trained me to recognize fear, anxiety, stress signals, arousal levels, body language, and environmental triggers. I grew up in a dog friendly family and spent 12 years caring for my family dog, including her current senior stage care. My Life Sciences and Biomedical Science background also makes me detail-oriented and observant with changes in behaviour, comfort, and well-being. During walks, I focus on secure handling, safe routes, calm interactions, and adapting the walk to each dog’s temperament, age, and energy level. My goal is to provide reliable, low-stress dog walking that owners can trust. I am currently in my summer break (May-Sept). while writing up my research paper draft, I will be flexible with my schedule 7 days a week 6:00am-10:00pm for dog walking. I have full G license with my own vehicle. For dog walking, I focus on safety, consistency, and calm handling. Before each walk, I confirm the dog’s routine, leash or harness setup, energy level, triggers, and any special instructions. I also apply what I learned from Fear Free shelter and boarding/daycare training by paying close attention to body language, fear-anxiety-stress signals, arousal level, thresholds, and environmental triggers. I check that equipment is secure, choose safe routes, avoid unnecessary dog to dog interactions, and adjust the pace to the dog’s comfort level. My goal is to provide a safe, reliable, and low-stress walk while giving owners peace of mind.

“Deb & James did a fantastic job with Nino!! They would send us daily updates with the cutest photos and videos while we were away. We missed little Nino, but we knew he had been in great hands since day one. Deb & James are so kind and lovely, and we highly recommend them as pet sitters! We cannot thank them enough for being so patient with Nino and ensuring he felt comfortable and at ease with them (he is a very fearful chihuahua.) When we picked him up, we could tell that Nino loved them and had the best time while he was staying with them. THANK YOU!!”
“Brigit was absolutely amazing from the first time I spoke with her to the day I picked up my boy! The love she has for animals (great dane in my case) is unbelievable as my dog walked in and felt right at home during the meet and greet. Brigit loves to find out every small detail about your pet so she can make sure your pet is treated the exact way they are at home! She sends lots of updates which I appreciate. We have a large breed which involved some strict guidelines and Brigit followed everything so carefully. I HIGHLY recommend her and Robert and will most definitely be booking again! What a wonderful experience, and I didn't feel stressed at all while we were gone. Thank You!”
“I had never boarded my dogs, an old, scared Golden Retriever and an energetic Border Collie-X so I was worried. When I met Robyn and saw her setup, I was confident that she was a good choice. Both dogs took to her right away. While I was away, Robyn sent me updates and photos every day. My Golden, Dakota didn't want to do much...I expected that. Genie, the border collie-x had a great time. She even found a playmate in one of the day borders. Robyn says my girls are always welcome back. I highly recommend her.”
“Saskia took excellent care of Ripley, and even got the stinger out of her foot when she was stung by a bee! Ripley was super comfortable with her, and had a great time!”
“She is simply the best! My cat Aurelio didn't miss me at all because he was having the best time of his life with Danesha. She sent me daily updates and played with my cat all the time. Highly recommended!!!!”
“Stephen, Holly, and their family were wonderful hosts for our puppy, Cedar! This was Cedar’s first overnight stay away from us, and we came home to a happy, healthy, and tired pup. We really appreciated the photo updates, prompt communication, reliability, and their willingness to care for a high energy 6.5 month old puppy. It gave us great peace of mind while we were away. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with them again in the future!”
“Melissa is really warm and welcoming - we left our 11 month old puppy for 5 days. Although we were nervous to leave him, he was well taken care of and we will use Melissa in the future!”
“Luke has been beyond amazing with Wall-E. We do not trust most people with our dog but Wall-E had an instant connection with Luke. Luke was extremely attentive to all of Wall-E's needs and kept us updated multiple times during the day. Towards the middle of our trip our anxiety about Wall-E was all gone. Would highly recommend Luke to any dog parent. Thanks Luke!”
“Josephine recently took care of my 2 standard poodles - 12 years old and 4 years old. The 4 year old was rehomed to me a year ago and is a challenging dog. Josephine was just fantastic with both of them - taking care of the 12 year old's mobility issues and making sure the 4 year old was exercised and entertained. It was so clear from the photos Josephine sent that both pups were having a grand time and we have already booked their next stay!”
“Heather is our number one choice. Our dog is comfortable and welcome by her entire family in thier lovely home. What more could anyone ask for?? Thank you Heather and Family. 😊”
“Pamesha and her husband took excellent care of our dog Korra. They were communicative, sending daily photos of Korra having a fantastic time in their care. They both clearly love dogs and understand how to take care of them. We will certainly be leaving Korra with Pamesha again in the future :)”
“Buddy spent another fun and relaxing vacation with Caitlin! We so appreciate how we can fully enjoy our time away knowing that Buddy is being well cared for and having so much fun! Thanks again Caitlin!”
“Outstanding. Brynn was responsive and the dogs seemed well exercised and super happy there! Would recommend her to other dog owners and would happily use her services again. Thanks Brynn!”
“We are so grateful for Lynette! We’ve had her take care of our 5 month old yorkie poo twice now, once for a weekend and once just for the day. The true testament to how good she is with our pup was how excited he was to see her when she came back to pick him up the second time! Lynette has been on time, very good at comminicating how things are going, and sends pictures while we’re away. She also took Dobby for walks and sent us a map of where and how far they went. I definitely recommend Lynette, she’s very sweet and you can tell how much she loves dogs and knows how to train and care for them.”
