“We recently reached out to Ashley to care for our dog Marley and explained his separation anxiety. She was incredibly kind and accommodating to his needs right from the start. Ashley kept us updated while we were away and sent photos where we could clearly see Marley was happy and having lots of fun. That peace of mind means everything when you are leaving your dog with someone new. We will absolutely be reaching out to Ashley again in the future and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable pet sitter.”

“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.”

“We had an excellent experience with Selina and Pascal! They were very communicative, easy-going, and friendly. We got updates several times a day and felt confident our dog was receiving amazing care. Our dog took to them very quickly - he’s normally unsure around men, but he even warmed up to Pascal amazingly quickly. We will definitely book with them again in the future.”

“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.”

“Super satisfied. Benjamin kept me update on how Kyra was doing and how she was enjoying playing with other boarders. Highly recommended. I will be booking again with Benjamin.”


About: Passionnée par les animaux depuis toujours, j’ai eu l’occasion de garder régulièrement les chiens de mes proches, ce qui m’a permis de développer une vraie sensibilité à leurs besoins et à leur bien-être. Ce qui me distingue ? Ma disponibilité totale et mon attention constante. Chez moi, votre chien n’est jamais laissé seul dans un coin — il est intégré à mon quotidien, chouchouté et surveillé en permanence. Mon appartement calme est idéal pour les chiens qui ont besoin de sérénité. J’accueille tous les gabarits et tous les tempéraments avec la même bienveillance. Chaque chien est unique, et je prends le temps d’apprendre à le connaître pour lui offrir une garde sur mesure. Les propriétaires peuvent partir l’esprit tranquille — je tiens à donner des nouvelles régulières avec photos et messages. Mon copain et moi sommes tous les deux en télétravail, donc on a une belle flexibilité dans nos journées ! Ça nous permet de vraiment prendre soin du chien qu’on garde — des marches quotidiennes, des moments de jeu et plein d’attention tout au long de la journée. Garder un chien fait partie de notre routine et on adore ça, c’est jamais une contrainte pour nous. Chez nous, c’est un appartement calme et douillet où votre chien est supervisé en tout temps. Comme on est deux à la maison, il y a toujours un œil sur lui ! On s’adapte à ses habitudes — que ce soit pour les sorties, les repas ou les moments de repos. Notre objectif, c’est qu’il se sente comme chez lui dès la première heure.
“Justyne is an incredible sitter! She made us feel completely at ease leaving our dog Stella in her care overnight. She communicated regularly sending us photos and updates of how Stella was doing throughout her stay which we really appreciated. Highly recommend and will absolutely be reaching out the next time we need to send Stella on a vacation!”

“Josée was an amazing dog sitter. Our dog Juny instantly fell in love with her. She took care of her needs, above and beyond. The guilt instantly disappeared, she was in dog paradise while we were on vacation. Thanks again! ❤️💜🩵”

“Mahnaz was extremely responsive, provided frequent updates and pictures and gave our kitty a home away from home. Would recommend her to others and would love to send Charlie there again in the future.”

“Melanie was a very affectionate and kindly sitter with my princess; I am very happy with her hospitality; with her patience Popi had a nice New Year. She and her family are very friendly; it gave me great peace of mind to leave Popi with them!!”

“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 ❤️”

“Bruna is amazing! I couldn't ask for anything more. From the very beginning, when I was scheduling Duna’s stay, Bruna made me feel comfortable by addressing my concerns about leaving my dog with someone else for the first time. She assured me that Duna would be in good hands, and indeed she was! I received updates about Duna’s walks, potty breaks, playtime, and sleep, along with pictures—Duna always looked happy, by the way. I will definitely book Duna’s future stays with Bruna; she truly went above and beyond!”

“Cathy took care of my dog, Luna, for several days, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. Luna ended up having an upset stomach during her stay, and Cathy’s support was truly A+. She handled the situation calmly, responsibly, and with great care, keeping me updated so I never felt 100% worried. It’s clear she genuinely cares about the pets she looks after. I’m very grateful for her help and wouldn’t hesitate to trust her with Luna again. Highly recommended!”

“My dog Billy stayed with Lucas and Thyara for 5 days in their beautiful home. Lucas and Thyara are very friendly. They were very welcoming to Billy. They are very caring couple, they wanted to know all about him. They sent me pictures every day, I liked that. I can tell he enjoyed his stay. I would give them my highest recommendation. Thank you Luke and Thyara !”

“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!”

When we met Jessica, we knew right away that our dog Tessa would be in good hands. She took great care of Tessa. She texted lots of photos and comments throughout the time Tessa was in her care. It’s clear that Tessa had a wonderful time staying with her! We highly recommend Jessica and will be using her services again in the future.
