I'm so happy Melanie agreed to come spend time with Giuseppe. Joe was happy, and fluffy, and fed. He got cuddles and scritches and everything. Melanie went above and beyond in taking care of him, and my humble little house. She even took the time to learn how to administer Joe's daily injections. She took such good care of him! It all made my time away that much more enjoyable knowing Melanie was taking care of everything. She was communicative and responsive and sent plenty of pics during her stay. I would wholeheartedly recommend her and will not hesitate to reach out when the next occasion comes along. Many thanks, Melanie. From Giuseppe and Fred.

Sabrina was fast to respond to my request to sit my two little chihuahuas. I had my regular dog sitter cancel last minute on me and Sabrina agreed to watch my boys with only two days notice. I saw other sitters asking for 1 weeks notice. Sabrina has great energy, is very kind and took an interest in my dogs asking about all the things that would make them most comfortable during her stay in my home. Sabrina arrived on time and gave me updates and photos while I was away. Her communication was great. Sabrina left my home clean and tidy. I felt comfortable right away leaving my fur babies with her, which says a lot because my boys are very timid and don’t take to just anyone. It takes a certain kind of energy to make them feel comfortable. If you have chihuahuas you know what I mean. I will use her again and would highly recommend her to others. Thank you Sabrina!!

I can’t recommend Nicole and Alex highly enough! They took care of my shy and elderly cat, Moose, while I was away for one week, and I couldn’t be happier with their care. From the moment they arrived, they were incredibly patient and understanding of Moose's timid nature. They took their time to let him warm up, sitting quietly in the same room. It was heartwarming to see how they created a calm environment, allowing him to approach on his own terms. Over the course of their time together, they developed a lovely routine that included cozy moments by the sunny window, where they would chat softly to him and enjoy the sunshine together. Nicole and Alex also ensured Moose was comfortable with his meals and medications, finding special ways to entice him with his favourite treats. Their dedication to his needs was evident, and I loved receiving regular updates and adorable photos while I was away. I returned to a happy and relaxed cat, which is a testament to Nicole & Alex's exceptional care. If you’re looking for someone who is kind, patient, and truly understands the needs of shy or elderly pets, these two are the perfect choice. I will definitely be booking them again in the future!

Jasmine watched our dogs while we were away for the long weekend. She took the time to meet with us ahead of time to get to know us, our home and pets. While we were away she was very communicative, sending us updates and photos that kept our mind at ease, knowing they were well looked after. We’d highly recommend Jasmine to anyone looking for a trustworthy, reliable, caring and friendly sitter for their loved ones while away.

Lynda took care of our 12 year old dog Zoe for a week while we were away on vacation. She truly gave us peace of mind as Zoe is getting older and needs extra loving care. Lynda provides a clean and safe environment as well as a large fenced backyard. She is honest, kind and energetic. Her love for animals is obvious, this is why we will not hesitate to ask Lynda to look after our dog again.

I have two Golden Bernese Doodles ( Lulu and Coco) and they LOVE Stephanie. She is 100% part of their pack and their official Godmother. You can not get a better person to watch your dog than Stephanie. The care and devotion she puts into the care of animals is exceptional.

I highly recommend Maggie if you are looking for someone trustworthy, reliable and responsible to care for your treasured pets, plants and home. Maggie has cared for our puppy on several occasions before she was fully potty trained. Maggie was so calm and patient with her, cleaning after her messes and offering her all the attention and toys she wanted. Maggie cares for pets and homes as though they were her own.

April is the most caring and adoring animal lover I've ever met. She treats each and every pet like her child. I never hesitate to ask her to watch my pets. They normally prefer her over me! She has a way with animals that just makes them at ease and comfortable instantly. I highly recommend April as a pet sitter, your pet will feel right at home with her.

I love Tina!!! I've never used a house sitter before and was always nervous for a few reason (mainly leaving my 5 furbabies alone). Tina eased my fears, learned our schedule with them and sent us daily updates. We couldn't of been more happy with her. She took such good care of our home & alerted us ASAP when the septic started to leak into the house. Her quick action allowed us to call in some experts and find out exactly what was wrong with out system. The house is also insanely immaculate!!! I’ll be a client for life I really do love how she cared for everyone. ❤️❤️

Kianna was an amazing pet sitter, my 3 year old dog has extremely bad separation anxiety, and usually doesn’t do well staying nights with pet sitters. She watched my dog for four nights and he had the best time. I was provided with pictures and updates on my pet while I was on vacation and that made me feel at ease. 10/10 recommend service with Kianna

Caroline took wonderful care of our dog while we were away on vacation. We received regular updates and some great pictures which reassured us that we left our dog with the right person. Caroline took care of our dog like it was her own, took her for regular walks and even bought her little gifts! We will definitely be using this service again.
