“Benjamin made us feel at ease leaving our dog behind for a short trip. He sent frequent updates, was easy to communicate with, and flexible. Koya came back to us happy and tired from her play time with other dogs.”
“Jessica and Tyler were incredible with Chester. Jessica sent plenty of updates, showing just how spoiled he was. I would recommend Jessica without hesitation. We have one exhausted puppy, which tells me just how happy he was and how much he enjoyed himself.”
“Alfie loves staying with Suzanne and her husband. He is treated like a king with full access to the house and couches. He goes for many walks during the day and is excited to see her when we drop him off. He comes home happy and healthy.”
“Cara a eu un super séjour avec Josée. Elle a eu beaucoup de marches et a aussi jouer à la balle. Josée est une personne très attentionnée avec les animaux et sait s’adapter aux besoins de nos poilus. Ce fut une première visite 5 étoiles.”
“My dogs, Moose and Chester, had an amazing stay at the farm! Ashley was incredibly kind and kept me updated throughout their time with her, which gave me so much peace of mind. It’s clear how much she truly loves and understands animals. She even administered Chester’s medication with no issues. The boys were happy, comfortable, and so well cared for. I couldn’t ask for a better place for them! I highly recommend!”
“This was our first time with Justyne and I would highly recommend her. My dog Theo spent 12 days with her and every time she would send us a picture, Theo looked like a very happy boy. I really appreciated all the updates and pictures throughout his time there. For anyone that is anxious about getting their dog babysat by a stranger, Justyne is the best person to go to, as she is kind and loving to us and the dogs. My dog Theo is generally a very anxious dog, however when he first met Justyne, her warm presence instantly reassured him to the point where he would follow her around within the first 10 minutes. Thank you Justyne for looking after my little boy! Theo and I look forward to connect with you for next time!”
“Mellissa went above and beyond in taking care of Wilma in every way. She sent me daily pictures and videos of Wilma and I could easily see that my dog was having a wonderful time being treated with lots of love and attention. It’s not easy being away from your pet and this helped put me at ease. Her dog Jasper also gave my dog a big buddy to play with and put up with her antics. I would highly recommend Mellissa to anyone, especially if this is your first time being away from your pet. Mellissa will take care of them like they were her own.”
“My dog Freddy had a great time with Erin and her dogs. The videos and photos Erin sent me made me happy to see him having fun while away from home. I recommend her as a sitter for anyone with a dog that loves other dogs ❤️”
“Mahnaz was wonderful with our temperamental little Mocha while he stayed with her last week, and had patience with him while he settled in. She sent many pictures and videos while we were away, so we could see that he was well cared for. We’ve already booked a second stay.”
“We had a wonderful experience leaving our 2 Boston Terriers with Debbie and Greg. They treated our dogs like their own. They sent us frequent updates and sent photos too. It gave us such peace of mind to know that our beloved animals were in such good hands.”
“Selina and Pascal are nothing short of amazing. This has been the 3rd time booking with them and I will only choose them. I trust them wholeheartedly with the dogs and vice versa. Bandit is anxious being left with strangers and he felt comfortable for the 12+ days with no anxiety signs whatsoever. He felt right at home and didn’t even want to leave. Seems like both dogs are showing signs of missing their 2nd family since being back home! Lol Selina and Pascal created a safe space for them, took them on multiple walks, took them in as their own. Absolutely exceptional sitters!! They kept sending us updates and pictures while we were away and made sure the dogs were ok. The dogs were in very good hands! We were unfortunately unable to come back in time for pick up due to unforeseen circumstances and Selina/Pascal worked with us right away to find a solution. Like I said, amazing people and dog sitters. Book with them, your dogs and mind will be at ease!!”
“Raquel lovingly cared for our dog Bella for ten days! She frequently sent us photos and videos showing us that she was very happy, which gave us a lot of peace of mind. I recommend her 100% to leave your dogs in a safe place. Thank you, Raquel!”
“We had a great experience with Praveen over Easter weekend! He took excellent care of our cat, Izaak, and kept us updated throughout his stay. Communication was easy, and we felt confident that Izaak was safe and well cared for. We would definitely book again—highly recommend!”
“Archie was right at home right away. Very clean house and Pesto and Archie became friends quickly. Sent lots of pics and updates. Archie came home a happy boy! Thank you.”
“Had a wonderful meet and greet with Christopher - Millie was so excited when we dropped her off for her stay! You can tell Christopher really loves dogs and we felt at ease leaving Millie with him. We would absolutely leave Millie with Christopher again!”
“Jason took amazing care of my dog ! They were reliable, attentive, and kept me updated with photos and messages. I could tell my dog was happy and comfortable the whole time. Highly recommend!”
“We had a great experience with Lianna, she took amazing care of our dog. She provided regular updates and was very easy to deal with. We highly recommend her. Given the chance, we will definitely book with her again.”
“Jean was incredible with Gillbert. She sent us lots of photos and took incredible care for him - he seemed to have a great time. We will definitely be going back to her in the future if needed.”
“We can't recommend Casey & Daniel strongly enough! They took tremendous care of our dog Jack. We were a little worried that Jack wouldn't want to come back to us! We loved receiving all of the updates and photos, and it was clear that Jack was pampered with lots of outside time and lots of affection. Casey & Daniel were also very accommodating. We had wonderful peace of mind knowing that Casey & Daniel were taking such great care of Jack.”

“Isabelle s’est occupée de mes deux chats et mes deux poissons lorsque j’étais parti en vacances en Irlande. Ma chatte Lexie est asthmatique et Isabelle lui a donné sa pompe et elle étais confortable avec ça. Même avec le décalage d’horaire Isabelle répondait à mes messages très vite. J’ai aussi apprécié les photos à tout les jours. Merci Isabelle !”
“Mala was really helpful we had a last minute trip and needed a sitter ASAP and she was there when we needed her. She communicated with us throughout the day and when she left. Great sitter!”
“Rebeca is amazing! My cat is very shy and she was able to develop trust and get her to spend time with her. I could relax knowing that she was my cat sitter. She timed the visits very well due to some wild weather. I will be hiring her every time I go in holiday. Thanks so much for taking good care of Punko.”
“Tamara was absolutely wonderful with our two cats. She clearly cared for them with attention and love, carefully followed all the instructions we provided, and truly went above and beyond. If you're a fellow pet parent who worries about leaving your pets behind, Tamara is the person you want looking after them! I had asked for at least two updates a day, and she even sent a few extra ones, which I really appreciated—it allowed me to enjoy my weekend with peace of mind. The house was left spotless, and she even washed the sheets before leaving, which was incredibly thoughtful. When I got home, my cats acted like I had never even left—which is actually a great sign! They’re usually stressed if I’m gone for even a few hours, so this showed me they were completely comfortable and happy with her. Knowing they enjoyed their time and felt at ease made me really happy. Thank you so much, Tamara 🐱”

About: What sets me apart from other cat sitters is the level of care, attention, and dedication I bring to every feline I look after. I have hands-on experience with cats that require specialized care, including my mom’s cat, whom I cared for after eye surgery—administering medications, monitoring recovery, and ensuring a calm environment for healing. I’m meticulous when it comes to hygiene and comfort, and I actually enjoy deep-cleaning cat areas, litter boxes, and accessories to keep everything fresh and safe for the cats in my care. Over a six-month period, I successfully took care of a friend’s six cats, balancing different personalities and needs while maintaining a happy and healthy environment. On top of that, I have two hairless cats of my own, which means I’m well-versed in the extra attention and maintenance they require, such as regular bathing, skincare, and temperature regulation. My experience with both everyday care and special needs makes me a reliable, attentive, and exceptionally thorough cat sitter.
“We have three senior cats with special needs, and we were very worried to leave them alone for a few days. Jean‑François completely put our mind at ease and truly stole our hearts with the exceptional care he provided. Every day, he sent detailed updates about how our cats were doing, complete with notes about their meals, medications, playtime, litter cleaning, and all the affection he showered them with. I cannot recommend Jean‑François enough to care for your furry family members. Finding someone so trustworthy, attentive, and reliable has been such a gift. Thank you Jean‑François, on behalf of Mitaine, Kyra, and Hubert :)”

“Taylor did such an amazing job. My puppy is exhausted from daycare. Taylor took Bernie out for walks and gave me updates when asked. She also helped Bernie meet his first cat and enjoyed his type. Will sure be using Taylor in the future.”
“Chai is so happy to stay with Mellissa and play with Jasper. How reassuring to drop our dog off and know that she is having such a wonderful adventure and great care. Thanks!”
“Ginger just came back from her first visit with Jessica and Dozer. Jessica was great at making Ginger feel safe and secure in this new environment and giving her some love and cuddles. Jessica sent me a bunch of pictures which was awesome and reassuring to me. Dozer (her big dog) was also great at giving Ginger the space she needed when we first got there. I will definitely bring Ginger back to Jessica’s!”
“Erin took care of my 6 month pup for the day and was very communicative, asking about his routine and what he’s been learning so she could reinforce while he was with her. She thoughtfully put a coat on my doodle when it snowed unexpectedly to protect his fur. He came home tired and slept for the evening. I’d happily book care with Erin again.”
“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!”
About: My Aussie, Ava, is 5 years old and knows ~60+ commands. When looking after dogs that belong to friends/family they are treated the same as my Ava; that goes for training, obedience, walks, you name it! If there's a trick you want your dog to learn, I will do my best to help! I Love all animals although I am a dog person, through and through. My two cats, Polo & Pan, are incredible and loved equally. Can't wait to play fetch with your dog or scratch your cat behind the ears :) I'm off work for the time being, love animals and most of all, love being outside in nature breathing in the sweet fresh air! That being said, I am available all day Monday to Friday and most weekends. We can chat schedule and have a consistent time table My animals are my children. They receive the same love and care any human family member would be entitled to. I love them, treat them with respect, train them with enthusiasm and cuddle them each and every day. Animals are awesome, no!?
“Amazing! She took good care of Pyper! Pyper was tired when she got home but not too tired to sniff around the new home we moved into. Thank you so much for taking care or our baby on such short notice!”
About: Hi my name is Debbie. I retired from the insurance industry in 2021. Around that time I took a course for dog training, as well as Dogsafe first aid. I have had dogs and/or cats almost my whole life. I currently live with 3 cats. I am retired so I am available at any time of day, seven days a week for your pet's needs. I can also accommodate weekends and holidays. I will visit your cat in your own home. Care will depend on individual needs but typically i will fill water and food bowls and clean litter.
About: Dogs have been a big part of my life for years, from looking after pets for family and friends to raising my own 4-year-old Beagle, Buddy, who’s friendly and gets along great with other dogs. I’m patient, attentive, and comfortable with all breeds and sizes, whether it’s a high-energy pup who needs a good run or an older dog who just wants company. Every dog I look after gets treated like one of my own. I have a flexible schedule throughout the week, with plenty of time to spend with your pup. We’ve got a big fenced backyard where dogs can run and play safely, and I’m available most days for drop-in visits and walks, so we can find a time that works for you. Safety comes first when caring for your dog in my home. I have a securely fenced backyard for supervised play, and I introduce new dogs to my Beagle, Buddy, slowly so everyone's comfortable and gets along. Dogs are never left unattended, and gates and doors stay secured at all times, so your pup is always safe and well looked after.
About: Being a mom to my border collie/aussie shepherd for almost 5 years showed me how pure a pet’s love is, and it made me want to look for more opportunities to spend time with pets. I currently volunteer at Penny Lane Animal Sanctuary, where I help take care of animals that come from situations of abuse and neglect. It is hard, rewarding work and I get to spend some time with cows, goats, sheep’s (and more!) while I am at it. I love taking care of animals and getting to know their quirks and unique personality. With a pretty high-energy dog that requires long walks, lots of exercise and mental stimulation, I can help you taking care of your pet, if you are struggling to find the time or the energy, or if you are going on vacation. I am available for walks, drop ins, house sitting, boarding or daycare. Send me a note if you’d like to schedule a meet and greet! 🐶 My schedule is pretty flexible. Whether it’s during the weekend, in the afternoon, evening, or a lunch drop in, my schedule is flexible enough to accommodate that. If you have an emergency event and need to leave the house, I can make myself available!
“We couldn't have asked for a better first experience for our Mira! She's still a bit shy and nervous around new people, so we were worried about how she'd handle it — but Julia was absolutely wonderful with her. She took the time to help Mira feel safe and comfortable, and you could tell she genuinely cared about making sure Mira enjoyed herself. Thank you!”
“I’m so glad that happy got to spend time with you. Initially I was really nervous about leaving her with pet sitter , but Clara proved it all wrong. She did an amazing job, and you can tell that she really loves to take care of pets. I loved all the pics.I definitely recommend Clara, if you want your fur baby to be taken care of like their own.”
“Debbie and Greg are always great sitters. Our Izzy is so excited to see them when we go over and is very happy and calm when we pick her up. She has separation anxiety but she feels right at ease when she is with them.”
“My dog Alice is a bit shy and hesitant to go new places and Jean was able to put her at ease. She had a fun day playing outside with another dog visitor and came home ready for a nap :) Jean has a great doggie play yard. I appreciated the photo updates too.”
“Mélanie was wonderful with Matcha and Juny! Matcha felt at home after only one day 😊 She is patient and caring toward our puppies and takes such good care of them!”

About: Salut 😊 Les animaux ont toujours eu une grande place dans ma vie et j’adore prendre soin d’eux comme s’ils faisaient partie de la famille. Je suis une personne douce, calme et attentive, et je prends le temps de m’adapter à la personnalité et aux besoins de chaque animal. Que ce soit pour une promenade, une visite à domicile ou une garde, votre compagnon recevra beaucoup d’attention, d’affection et de patience. Je comprends aussi que ce n’est pas toujours facile de laisser son animal à quelqu’un d’autre, donc j’envoie volontiers des nouvelles et des photos pour vous rassurer pendant votre absence 😊 Je suis à l’aise avec : * les chiens énergiques * les animaux timides ou anxieux * les chats * les routines et consignes particulières * les demandes de dernière minute selon mes disponibilités Mon objectif est que votre animal se sente en sécurité, aimé et confortable pendant votre absence ❤️ Je cherche à bâtir ma clientèle, donc mes tarifs sont actuellement plus avantageux 😊 Au plaisir de rencontrer votre compagnon ! 🐾 Prendre soin des animaux fait déjà partie de mon quotidien. J’aime intégrer les promenades, les visites et les moments de jeu dans ma routine, et je prends le temps de m’adapter aux besoins de chaque animal. Que ce soit pour une courte visite ou une garde plus longue, je m’assure qu’ils reçoivent de l’attention, de l’affection et une présence rassurante. Je prends soin des animaux avec beaucoup d’attention, de douceur et en respectant leurs habitudes. Chez les propriétaires, je m’assure de suivre les consignes données (nourriture, promenades, jeux, médicaments si nécessaire) afin que l’animal reste dans sa routine et se sente en sécurité dans son environnement. Lors des promenades, je m’adapte au rythme du chien et je veille à ce qu’il dépense son énergie de façon sécuritaire et agréable. Pour les visites à domicile, je prends aussi le temps de donner de l’affection, de jouer avec l’animal et de vérifier qu’il va bien avant de repartir. Si l’animal est accueilli chez moi, je lui offre un environnement calme, sécuritaire et confortable, avec des moments de jeu, des promenades régulières et beaucoup de présence afin qu’il se sente comme à la maison.

Patiente et fiable, je veille à leur sécurité, à leur routine et à leur confort, tout en leur offrant mon affection et ma présence. M’occuper de chiens et de chats n’est pas seulement une tâche pour moi, c’est un engagement sincère et un plaisir quotidien Je travaille actuellement à temps partiel, ce qui me permet d’avoir une grande flexibilité dans mon horaire. Mes journées sont bien organisées et me laissent plusieurs plages libres en matinée, en fin d’après-midi et en soirée. Je suis également disponible les fins de semaine selon les besoins. Cette stabilité me permet d’offrir une présence attentive et régulière aux chiens et aux chats dont je m’occupe, que ce soit pour des promenades, des visites à domicile ou des gardes plus longues. J’ai un grand jardin et une maison avec deux étage et un sous-sol. Cependant je donne priorité à garder les animaux dans leur environnement et ainsi interagir avec eux en sécurité.

“Benjamin made us feel at ease leaving our dog behind for a short trip. He sent frequent updates, was easy to communicate with, and flexible. Koya came back to us happy and tired from her play time with other dogs.”
“Alfie loves staying with Suzanne and her husband. He is treated like a king with full access to the house and couches. He goes for many walks during the day and is excited to see her when we drop him off. He comes home happy and healthy.”
“Cara a eu un super séjour avec Josée. Elle a eu beaucoup de marches et a aussi jouer à la balle. Josée est une personne très attentionnée avec les animaux et sait s’adapter aux besoins de nos poilus. Ce fut une première visite 5 étoiles.”
“My dogs, Moose and Chester, had an amazing stay at the farm! Ashley was incredibly kind and kept me updated throughout their time with her, which gave me so much peace of mind. It’s clear how much she truly loves and understands animals. She even administered Chester’s medication with no issues. The boys were happy, comfortable, and so well cared for. I couldn’t ask for a better place for them! I highly recommend!”
“This was our first time with Justyne and I would highly recommend her. My dog Theo spent 12 days with her and every time she would send us a picture, Theo looked like a very happy boy. I really appreciated all the updates and pictures throughout his time there. For anyone that is anxious about getting their dog babysat by a stranger, Justyne is the best person to go to, as she is kind and loving to us and the dogs. My dog Theo is generally a very anxious dog, however when he first met Justyne, her warm presence instantly reassured him to the point where he would follow her around within the first 10 minutes. Thank you Justyne for looking after my little boy! Theo and I look forward to connect with you for next time!”
“Mellissa went above and beyond in taking care of Wilma in every way. She sent me daily pictures and videos of Wilma and I could easily see that my dog was having a wonderful time being treated with lots of love and attention. It’s not easy being away from your pet and this helped put me at ease. Her dog Jasper also gave my dog a big buddy to play with and put up with her antics. I would highly recommend Mellissa to anyone, especially if this is your first time being away from your pet. Mellissa will take care of them like they were her own.”
“My dog Freddy had a great time with Erin and her dogs. The videos and photos Erin sent me made me happy to see him having fun while away from home. I recommend her as a sitter for anyone with a dog that loves other dogs ❤️”
“Mahnaz was wonderful with our temperamental little Mocha while he stayed with her last week, and had patience with him while he settled in. She sent many pictures and videos while we were away, so we could see that he was well cared for. We’ve already booked a second stay.”
“We had a wonderful experience leaving our 2 Boston Terriers with Debbie and Greg. They treated our dogs like their own. They sent us frequent updates and sent photos too. It gave us such peace of mind to know that our beloved animals were in such good hands.”
“Selina and Pascal are nothing short of amazing. This has been the 3rd time booking with them and I will only choose them. I trust them wholeheartedly with the dogs and vice versa. Bandit is anxious being left with strangers and he felt comfortable for the 12+ days with no anxiety signs whatsoever. He felt right at home and didn’t even want to leave. Seems like both dogs are showing signs of missing their 2nd family since being back home! Lol Selina and Pascal created a safe space for them, took them on multiple walks, took them in as their own. Absolutely exceptional sitters!! They kept sending us updates and pictures while we were away and made sure the dogs were ok. The dogs were in very good hands! We were unfortunately unable to come back in time for pick up due to unforeseen circumstances and Selina/Pascal worked with us right away to find a solution. Like I said, amazing people and dog sitters. Book with them, your dogs and mind will be at ease!!”
“We had a great experience with Praveen over Easter weekend! He took excellent care of our cat, Izaak, and kept us updated throughout his stay. Communication was easy, and we felt confident that Izaak was safe and well cared for. We would definitely book again—highly recommend!”
“Archie was right at home right away. Very clean house and Pesto and Archie became friends quickly. Sent lots of pics and updates. Archie came home a happy boy! Thank you.”
“Had a wonderful meet and greet with Christopher - Millie was so excited when we dropped her off for her stay! You can tell Christopher really loves dogs and we felt at ease leaving Millie with him. We would absolutely leave Millie with Christopher again!”
“We had a great experience with Lianna, she took amazing care of our dog. She provided regular updates and was very easy to deal with. We highly recommend her. Given the chance, we will definitely book with her again.”
“We can't recommend Casey & Daniel strongly enough! They took tremendous care of our dog Jack. We were a little worried that Jack wouldn't want to come back to us! We loved receiving all of the updates and photos, and it was clear that Jack was pampered with lots of outside time and lots of affection. Casey & Daniel were also very accommodating. We had wonderful peace of mind knowing that Casey & Daniel were taking such great care of Jack.”
“Our pup had such a wonderful stay with Mel. She was so incredibly attentive and sent us pictures of him throughout the weekend. We’ll certainly contact her again for her services!”
“Thank you so much for the excellent care of our dog! I felt lucky to find them and they seem happy to care for our dog like we do. :) She is a somewhat anxioius dog and they were so understanding. We got daily updates and pictures. I would definitely book again!”
“My dog had a lot of special requests and Quintelle was always able to accomodate. Very friendly, even just set up the front door so my dog could watch the neighborhood. Thank you very much!”
“Nos deux chiens sont restés chez Pénélope et Maxime. La communication a été excellente du début à la fin. Ils nous tenaient au courant régulièrement et nous envoyaient des photos, ce qui nous a beaucoup rassurés et fait plaisir. Nos chiens ont adoré leur séjour. Nous n’hésiterons pas à réserver avec eux à nouveau dans le futur!”
