“Natasha is amazing. Levi felt right at home, she is calm and very observant on Levi. She gave Levi quality care which you can tell in your dog. Levi didn’t cry when I saw me like he normally does. He got his walks in and had a great time. We are so lucky to find Natasha and she’ll be our go to when we’re in town.”

“Johanne is so lovely, and our pup Stella is really enjoying her days there! We get great photo updates and she is super flexible with drop off and pick up times! She is super responsive and truly loves the dogs! Can't recommend her enough!”

“Grace is my dog’s new best friend! She is a great communicator, flexible on schedules and really truly loves dogs. My dog now freaks out when the carrier comes out as she knows she is going to see her friend Grace. Would highly recommend!”

“Michael and Mavis were wonderful! They suggested a meet and greet prior to our booking which really made things easier and smoother for my velcro little senior pup who can have a bit of stranger danger at times. Mavis sent regular updates and photos throughout the day and I could tell that Jelly was very well taken care of by how comfortable she looked snuggled up next to Mavis. I'll definitely be booking with them again and could not recommend them enough!”

“Shernaaz and her husband took fantastic care of Pablo, and were so happy to've met him and taken care of him! Communication was a breeze, pick up and drop off were really smooth, and they were very accommodating. I look forward to booking them again in the future.”

About: As an animal lover, I have significant experience with cats and dogs. My father is a veterinarian, so I have also gained extensive experience working with pets with special needs/accommodations. I have also fostered both cats and dogs for multiple rescue agencies. I can’t wait to discuss how I can support you and your pet! I am currently working part time, so I have plenty of time and attention available for your pet. When your pet is in my care, they will be the #1 priority. I have a safe apartment and a cute, patient kitty to keep your fur baby company. I am also an avid walker, so I look forward to walking frequently with your dog. As well, I am comfortable with crating your pet, and following any other routines.
“Jarmila & Eileen were so wonderful- Chase was pooped and you could tell he was well taken care of. They were also so accommodating with a fluctuating and unexpected work schedule. I will continue to book with them!”

“Enzo was comfortable very quickly with Judith. He was also very happy and content when picking him up. He sometimes takes some time to warm to new people but obviously felt very comfortable with Judith. Thank you!”

“Brigitte was so amazing with my little Toffee! She took him a little last minute as I couldn't get my regular sitter and just gave him the best day a little doggie could ask for with all the cuddles. Thank you so much!!”

“Leo seemed to have so much fun with Akanksha throughout the day. She sent a lot of photos and videos which I loved! Leo came back tired after all the fun playtime he had and slept instantly. Would recommend her and will definitely use the service again. Thank you 😊”

“I am super comfortable leaving my dog Aubrie with Ana Laura and her partner. They're caring, communicative, and accommodating. More importantly, Aubrie is excited to go play at their house for the day, and very relaxed when she leaves :)”

“Linda and Joe are awesome! Our moose is only 12 weeks old and they were so good at reassuring me and providing me updates throughout the day. Knowing full well how busy my puppy is they were very accommodating to his needs. Joe even trimmed his nails for us. We will be rebooking with them!”

“Lydia est très attentionné avec mes chiens et est en communication avec moi tout au long de la journée lorsqu'il y a un besoin. Après seulement deux visites, mes deux chiens étaient content de retourner la voir pour une autre journée, donc ça en dit beaucoup sur l'accueil et le plaisir qu'ils ont chez Lydia.”

Sydney & Brodie were absolutely amazing with Nymeria! 🐾 From the moment we met them, they made us feel comfortable and reassured. They were very kind, attentive, and clearly experienced with dogs. Nymeria came home happy, relaxed, and well cared for, which means a lot to us as pet parents. They kept great communication throughout the day and made the whole experience stress-free. You can really tell they genuinely love animals and treat them like family. We would definitely trust them again in the future and highly recommend them to anyone looking for caring and reliable sitters!

Daniel is great with our 5 month old puppy Cody. He looks after Cody during the day about once a week and Cody is always excited to arrive. He gets ample attention and time outside, and Daniel is really good with communication and providing photo and video updates during the day.
