“Followed all my instructions for my very particular cat, and even went back twice in one day to make sure my kitty was staying cool on a hot day! Definitely recommend and will be booking again!”
“Fern was amazing with our 2 pups visiting mid day while we were away from the house for long stretches. She played with the puppy and fed him lunch and left us with great updates from each visit! We will absolutely be booking Fern again next time we require one of her services! Fern was very professional and accommodating when working with our ever changing schedule she was so patient with us and her demeanour with our dogs was very calming! Fern was so diligent in making sure she knew all the protocols of our household including the alarm system and dog accessories! Thank you so much Fern for making our time away stress free.”
“Karen and Dan were wonderful! They sent lots of pictures and updates throughout their stay and made us feel very comfortable trusting our puppy with them. I would recommend them to anyone!”
“From the moment my dog met Andrea, she was enamored. Pepper is normally suspicious and barks at people who come to the door, but I think Andrea has such a calm quiet gentle demeanor, that Pepper felt comfortable with her right away! The cats, too, came right over and were mesmerized. Andrea carefully listened to and took note of all instructions, was easy to communicate with throughout, and I had absolutely no worries leaving my pets and home in her care. She got some great photos of my pets during visits, too, so I could see how content they were. Andrea also noticed and responded to my senior dog's needs in terms of energy levels--walking her when she was energetic and staying chill when she needed that. I highly recommend Andrea!”

About: Hello I grew up on a ranch/farm and I did take care of our dogs and cats we had throughout the years. I fed them and loved on them and played with them. Taking them for walks, and playing with their toys and giving them love and affection. I'm a stay at home mom of 2 kids and I would like to help others with walking their dogs and caring for them during the day. And it's something that I can have my kids with me when they are not in school. When I am in your home to care for your animals. I'll make sure they have fresh water, give them food if requested. Give them some pets. Let them outside to go to the bathroom. Play with them. All while respecting that I am in your home.

About: I have a lot of compassion for animals and they bring joy into my life.I grew up on an acreage and had all kinds of animals.Dogs are my favorite because they love you unconditionally and make you feel better when you’ve had a bad day.I take care of my own pets like they are my children.I will look after your dogs like they were my own.I will spoil them and snuggle with them.I find that dogs gravitate to me , they can feel when someone really loves them.What sets me apart from other pet sitters and dog walkers is that I have a big heart towards animals and they will get the greatest care while they are in my home or just going for a nice walk. It fits well as I work but have days off and my daughter is home often, she’s 19.My hubby comes home every day at lunch for an hour, so he lets the dogs out . I have a big fenced yard where dogs can run and play.I prefer not getting dogs that arent spayed or neutered as it’s been a problem in the past.
