1. Jenny P.
“Jenn was fantastic with my and my daughter’s dogs, even when my little anxious rescue was being awful! She was loving and kind with them and we had no worries at all while we were away for the weekend. We had lots of communication and photos and my dogs and my house were all in good shape when I returned. We would definitely book Jenn again!”
2. Terry C.
“Terry is an absolute delight! She took very good care of my puppy while I was away for the holidays. She went over and beyond to ensure my puppy felt comfortable and was entertained. Would recommend Terry to all friends and family!”
3. David B.
“David did an *outstanding* job taking care of our two golden retrievers for four days. From the moment we met him, it was clear how much he genuinely cares for animals. He went above and beyond to ensure our dogs were happy, comfortable, and well cared for. When we returned, they were completely relaxed and content—a true testament to how well he handled them. Not only did he take excellent care of the dogs, but he also kept our house spotless. David's professionalism, kindness, and attention to detail impressed us, and we’ll absolutely be hiring him again. Highly recommend!”
4. Phoebe T.

5. Arlana T.
“Arlana stayed with my dog Philly for the weekend at our house and it worked out so well! She is great at communicating & left the space spotless. We met prior to Arlana staying at the house which was perfect - will definitely have Arlana take care of Philly again!”
6. DARCY N.
“I’ve known Darcy for 6 years. I’ve always known her to be a loving, kind attentive dog mom. I loved seeing all her adventures with her dogs over the years. Since the loss of her senior dogs she took on fostering dogs. She was so patient and compassionate of their needs and helped find their forever homes. If you choose Darcy for the care of your precious pets, I know you will be at ease knowing your pets are being treated with respect, patience and kindness. Cathy Cyr”

11. Kirsten M.
“We recommend Kirsten with the highest regard and confidence! She is great at building trust and a positive relationship with a shy and needy dog. I greatly appreciate Kirsten’s kind touch with all and communication with us. We feel fortunate to have had her watch our dog while we were away.”
12. Kate M.
“I have used Kate multiple times to look after my two golden retrievers and could not recommend her more! Kate always goes above and beyond- she takes them out for long hikes, visits the beach on sunny days and they always return back home exhausted and tails wagging. She keeps me updated with pictures and little stories from their adventures, which is such a comfort when I'm away from my fur babies. Kate truly treats my dogs like her own, and it’s clear they adore her. Her genuine love and dedication make her the best pet sitter I could ask for.”
13. Kim W.
“Kim was amazing! We had zero anxiety about leaving our home and fur babies in her hands. When we arrived home, lights were on anticipating our late return, the house was immaculate. She provided loving snuggles and great care to our two dogs, one requiring special care. She sent lots of photos and updates. She kept our gardens watered and even dealt with water supply issues like a champ. She is incredibly grounded, adaptable, and reliable...really I could go on. I can’t thank her enough and will definitely contact her again for future sitting.”
14. Chelsea C.
“Chelsea takes my high energy dog mountain bike riding and he absolutely loves it. Very excited everytime she shows up when I don't have time.”
15. Kendallyn & Wade M.
“Huge thanks to these guys for taking such great care of our pups! Such a sweet couple, who clearly love dogs, and providing excellent care and service. Communication was great from start to finish, they went above and beyond to make us feel reassured and happy. Would highly recommend, and wouldn't hesitate to reach out for future sitting needs. Top notch! Thanks :)”

“This was our second booking with Megan. She was so caring and went above and beyond with our 2 pups and cat. They were very well looked after and so was our home. We will not hesitate to have her back! Thanks, Megan!”
19. Dariya M.
“We have used Dasha to look after our 2 very large dogs. One is an easy going golden retriever and the other is a rescue from Mexico who can be a little skiddish. Dasha looked after them very well in our home when we went away for a couple of nights. I was super bummed when she moved away from Ontario as I would have used her again and again. I highly recommend her!! Such a lovely person!”
20. Silke V.
“Silke has a smile that lights up a room and a wonderful calm energy. Animals sense this so it makes it easy to go away and have peace of mind. My two cats are very skittish and cautious and just loved her.”
