1. Jodi K.

“Jodi was a great house sitter. She cared for my two cats and geriatric dog for a long weekend and all animals were very happy on my return, and my house was tidy! Jodi handled an emergency with one of the cats and followed my instructions perfectly. I will definitely hire Jodi again!”


2. Tara P.


“Tara was an awesome house/doggo sitter. My dog has a seizure disorder and needs to take medication twice a day, so I needed somebody who was competent and responsible. I've never left with my dog with someone I just met, but Tara came over after I booked to meet us and right away I felt like I could trust her with the job. Tara took care of everything without issue while I was gone. She sent me updates and photos throughout each day. She also took great care of my house. I cleaned before I left and I came back to it cleaner than I left it. I highly recommend Tara as a dog or house sitter, and will be using her again the next time I have to go out of town and can't bring my dog.”


3. Rebecca S.

“Rebecca is awesome! All our neighbours commented on how often they saw Rebecca out for walks with the dogs during the day and how friendly and engaging she was. The house was very clean on our return. We highly recommend Rebecca.”


4. Colleen F.

“Colleen and Robb are incredible! They went above and beyond in every way. They truly made our vacation better: we knew our dog was being well cared for and loved (the pics were amazing), our house was immaculate, they were flexible with our travel delays, they were conscientious and considerate with every detail, and the communication level was phenomenal. We were a bit nervous about leaving our quirky Frenchie, Walter, but it’s clear in our return that he was in the best hands. We won’t hesitate to reach out to Colleen and Robb in the future or to share their profile with our friends and family. We highly recommend them if you are looking for a stress free vacation and pampering for your furry friend/s.”


5. Matthew P.

“Matthew is a very reliable and caring person that I entirely trust with my dog and home.”


6. Taryn B.

“Taryn relieved all of our worry and stress in leaving ‘the boys’ at home while we left for a day. She was so responsible, caring, and considerate with our dogs and our home. We will absolutely ask her to look after our dogs in the future!”

9. Deidre R.
“Hi there my name is Kayla christopher. I owned a little Shih Tzu for over 10 years. He was the love of my life. And I would have trusted his life with Dee. She loved him with all her heart as well. And any animal I've ever seen her with is being petted and adored and pampered. She is very responsible. And an animal lover. She would be an asset to any pet caregiving needs. All the best.”


10. Gammy B.

“Gammy was awesome with Luna. He stayed at my house for several nights, sent me regular photos and videos to keep me updated on how she was doing. I asked him to help me keep my garden watered and both dog and garden were looking great when I got home :) ....Gammy even stripped the bed he slept in and washed/dried the bedding, without me asking that of him. Great communicator, trustworthy. I'll be hoping he doesn't get so busy I can't book him again!! ....but highly recommend.”


11. Alex G.

“Alex was so great with takin care of my fur monster. She was extremely receptive to any and all of his quirks, and has managed him so well. Alex was great at communicating throughout the booking - prior, during and post… with awesome updates of the adventures they went on. Super thankful for her assistance, and would highly recommend her to anyone who’s looking for premium care for their furry loved ones. Thank you alex”


12. Lyne F.
“Wonderful person, super trustworthy and the pooches loved her. Looking forward to hiring Lyne again.”


13. Patricia C.
“Having known Pats for almost 20 years, I can attest to Pats being a true lover of furry friends. She has cared for our animals over the years, and if we could always have her be our surrogate, we would be set! If you get Pats to care for your animals, you should consider yourself lucky!”


14. Michelle L.

“Michelle took such great care of our little Snoopy. She was lovely to communicate with and sent us many photos and videos, which we were so grateful for!”


15. Joanna M.

“Joanna and Mark stayed for one week in our home and cared for our high energy/anxious dog and laid back cat. They exceeded all expectations! Both are incredibly kind, caring and responsible people. Their #1 priority was the wellbeing of our pets, and they strived to make sure they were happy and healthy. Our dog and cat quickly fell in love with Joanna and Mark. They provided morning and evening updates along with photos to help put our minds at ease while we were on vacation. Our home was treated with respect, and we returned to a sparkling clean house! We highly recommend them, and look forward to having them stay again in the future.”


16. LC G.
“Good pet sitters are hard to find, and Lindsay is someone I’d trust my dogs with anytime! She’s thoughtful, responsible, and my two pups (Jasmine and Finn) are always VERY excited to see her! Would highly recommend her to look after your furry friends.”


17. Jen G.

“The boys had a great time, lots of photos sent to us of all their outings.”


18. Tara F.

“Tara fulfilled our list of requests with no problem or miscommunications! Our dog is reactive so it’s important to be able to leave him with someone we trust. He loved his time with Tara and we will definitely be booking again! She was extremely polite and easy to work with and left our house clean and tidy.”


19. Jillian S.

“Jillian cared greatly for my two dogs and cat while I was away for nine days. I had a bit of anxiety about leaving my animals, but Jillian communicated with me multiple times a day, and sent many photos of all of them. She went above and beyond my expectations and thoroughly cleaned my whole house before we arrived back home. It was wonderful coming back and not having to clean anything! I couldn’t have found a better house sitter for my fur babies. I know they miss her already! Will definitely be booking with her again 😊”


20. Keah S.

“Keah has been sitting our Frenchie for some time now. She has been excellent and very responsive. Regular photo updates have been great too! She’s made it possible for us to book some last minute travels without any worries on our mind.”
