1. Mélanie P.


“Melanie was wonderful! I was a first time Rover user and was a bit anxious about the whole thing but Melanie was wonderful! She was in constant communication with lots of pictures and some videos. My boy can be anxious and when I got home it was a non-event. A big win! Melanie walked him when the temperature wasn’t too hot and was up for a flexible schedule (he’s a big boy so needs shorter more frequent walks when it’s hot outside) and was very respectful of my home and left it in perfect condition. I would highly recommend her and will have her again! Thanks Melanie!”


2. Nicole & Alexandre G.


“Nicole and Alex were amazing! Our animals were happy and relaxed when we came home and they took great care of our place as well. They have excellent communication and we had no concerns leaving our animals in their hands. We will definitely be using them to sit down r us again!”




3. Hamsha P.

“Hamsha was amazing from our first communication to the end of the stay. Hamsha was very communicative and responsive before and during the booking. When I returned home, my dogs seemed happy and tired from all the exercise they got!”


4. Lynda R.
“It is my pleasure that I provide a testimonial for Lynda. I have known her for more than 30years and I can say that Lynda is one of the most caring people I know. Her stellar career working with children has proven that she is committed to making sure everyone around her are safe, healthy and happy. That commitment easily extends to include her pets as it is evident their health and happiness is of upmost importance to her. She has been a wonderful mom to her son and many fur babies while I have known her. She has a soft spot for all animals, domestic and wild. The pet owners who use Lynda’s services will find her very friendly, respectful and very responsible. She has an ability to make all people and their pets feel at home and free to be themselves. Lynda loves nature, enjoys walks and she is a lot of fun to be around. I believe she would make a wonderful pet sitter.”


5. Fauve G.

“Can't recommend Fauve enough!! A true animal lover that our fur babies immediately took a liking to. She went above and beyond in every aspect of care and updates. She made sure our pups got plenty of exercise and playtime. It was heartwarming to receive regular updates of them getting endless snuggles. Fauve also took exceptional care of our home, leaving it in pristine condition upon our return. You will be leaving your dogs in great hands. They might even jump her in car and try to go home with her! Thank you again!”
