“I’m lucky to have found Danielle! I have a senior chihuahua who needs a little extra care and patience with her drop in visits (she is mostly blind and deaf), and now I can rest easy knowing she is safe in Danielle hands. She is very caring and communicative. I will continue to use her services :)”
“Tatiana was absolutely amazing! From the first meet up to exchange keys Norman was instantly obsessed! Knowing he was happy and comfortable eased my anxiety. Through out her check-ins I got so many videos and pictures. She kept me very informed. I appreciate her care for Norman!! Will be booking again!”
“Setareh, thank you so much for looking after Cora and Cheri while we were away. You were so kind and thoughtful to them and even though we were away only for a couple of nights, you kept us updated throughout and it was easy to see why the girls loved you so much 💕”
“We were so lucky to have Svetlana as our cat sitter! She took amazing care of our cat (and our fish) while we were away — sending daily updates, photos, and making sure everything was perfect. Our cat, who is usually shy, clearly felt comfortable and happy with her. We could really relax on our trip knowing she was in such good hands. Highly recommended!”
“Gabrielle is wonderful! She is wonderfully responsive, kind and caring. She took great care of my precious pets and sent wonderful updates throughout the time. I would recommend her in a heartbeat!”
“Hoora was great! Will definitely be booking her again. She is reliable and communicative, and very good with cats. We appreciated getting all the photos and updates.”
About: With over 10 years of experience caring for dogs, cats, and a wide range of exotic species, I bring a deep understanding of animal behavior and a commitment to providing safe, reliable, and compassionate care. I’ve worked with pets of all temperaments, ages, and needs—and I take pride in creating a calm, comfortable environment for every animal I look after. I previously owned and operated a business specializing in training large-breed dogs with behavioral issues, giving me advanced skills in handling reactive, anxious, and strong-willed dogs with confidence and patience. This background allows me to support even the most complex behavioral or routine needs. I also have personal experience caring for special-needs pets and senior animals, including those requiring medication, mobility support, or extra time and understanding. I know how important consistency, gentleness, and attentive observation are when supporting pets who need a little more care. Whether it’s maintaining daily routines, providing enrichment, addressing behavioral needs, or simply offering love and reassurance, I am dedicated to ensuring your pets feel safe, respected, and truly cared for while you’re away. Your pets are family—and I’m here to treat them as my own. I currently work from home and have a senior shepherd x rottie, a cat, and many exotics. I am extremely flexible and have no issues driving to your home. I take my time to ensure that I leave your home as I found it, making sure to clean up any messes your pet may make.
“Shamika did an amazing job watching my cats for 3 weeks! They were very well looked after and I received detailed updates and pictures. I really appreciated that the litter and water bowls were consistently maintained, as that was my biggest concern. Maple and Toque say thank you too!”
“She was an incredibly caring and attentive sitter, and I felt completely at ease leaving my dog with her while I was in Mexico. My dog has pretty intense separation anxiety, and she went above and beyond—spending extra time with him during each visit to make sure he felt calm and supported. She also handled all the logistics seamlessly, from coordinating with the concierge to managing key pick-ups and returns between visits, which made the whole experience effortless on my end. What I appreciated most was her thoughtful, proactive approach—whether it was tossing treats to build trust, taking him on walks, or simply letting him sniff and decompress to release energy. You can tell she genuinely understands dogs and cares about their well-being. Overall, a truly great experience. I would highly recommend her.”
About: I am honoured to have been trusted with the care and custodianship of cherished pets, furry, scaly, and slimey, since I was a young child, which has given me invaluable experience and skill. Whether you need occasional help with walks, feeding, or sitting while you are away, I'm your gal! I've also got lots of exotic pet experience (I have three bunnies myself, and many aquaria) as well as experience caring for diverse houseplants and gardens. I pride myself in meeting the needs of even the most specialized critters, big or small, and look forward to providing the best experience for your pets, especially those that need a little extra love. I will make my schedule work with yours and look forward to talking soon! I am a mechanical engineering student, so my schedule is very flexible. I walk, cycle, and TTC, so no need for parking! I love having the opportunity to integrate furry friends into my routine. I am a seasoned carer for my three buns (dusty, soup, and drosophila), gerbils (miso), leopard gecko (artemis), and have had many hamsters. I maintain several freshwater aquaria with my partner, and have TONS of plants. I will follow your specifications and requests to a tee, and can be contacted on my cell whenever you need. I am also seasoned in housekeeping, should that be a plus!
“Prerna is life saver. Very very genuine person who took so good care of my cat in my absence. In last 8years my cat had never been sick, but he did during our time away. But Prerna was there to take care and was very responsive during this time. She even came extra days to check on my cat. I am forever indebted. Prerna is very good at what she does and my cat also loved her. Now I know she would be my forever go to person whenever I need to step away. Thank u Prerna, u did great job. Also kudos to the cleanliness you maintained. 1000% recommend you!!”
About: I have been a foster for assistance dog training programs in both Ontario and BC for over six years (PADS, Lions Foundation Dog Guides). My dogs have become assistance dogs for the deaf, underprivileged, and others. I have several years of training with these programs, which has educated me on providing exceptional care. Most importantly, I offer a home with gentle energy that allows dogs to feel comfortable and secure. I currently foster a very cute two year old Labrador. I am retired, so my schedule is wide open, allowing me to provide care for your pet, even at a moment's notice. I will not take on two dog sitting requests at the same time, allowing me to focus on your pet. I have a very pet friendly dog who will gently play with yours. I am wide open to your requests, covering the specific needs your dog may have.
“Jane and her mom helped us take care of our cat Adel while we were away for almost a week. They were very attentive, punctual and neat. Can't thank them enough, and Adel is looking forward to seeing them again.”
About: Hi! I am a dog lover with a very flexible schedule and a lifetime of experience caring for energetic Border Collies. From leisurely strolls to off-leash adventures, I'm happy to cater our walks to your pets needs. With a deep understanding of dog behaviour and a commitment to safety, you can trust me to provide top-notch care for your beloved pet. I am available all day from Monday to friday and can be flexible on the weekend. Pet care fits into my schedule in the morning, afternoon or evening. I put the animals safety first to ensure a positive and enjoyable experience for everyone. On walks if allowed I would love to be able to let your dog off leash and am happy to keep them on leash if that is preferred.
“Maria Paula S. was so incredible taking care of our two cats. She was punctual, respectful and very reliable. She went above and beyond our expectations. She was also a great communicator and always let us know how our cats were doing and if there were any issues. We will be using her services going forward for as long as she is available. She is a rare person with a big heart. Thank you Maria !!!”
“Nguyen & Sami are amazing! They took care of my two little bunnies while I was away for a long weekend and they were super nice followed our instructions properly to ensure our little rabbits were properly care and loved while we were away.

They really think of everything and I can tell they love animals I will trust them to take care of Miel and Mota again :) Thanks a lot guys”
“Nathaly is the absolute best!! She sent us detailed updates and sooo many cute photos every single visit. And the cat absolutely loves her! She took amazing care of the cat, playing with him and giving him company. Thank you so much!”

Savannah was an excellent cat sitter for my recent vacation. She communicated often about my cat’s eating and drinking habits, kept me updated about the times she was planning on visiting, and expressed a very clear interest in my cat’s wellbeing - and sent the most adorable pictures. I would definitely use her again in the future!
I cannot say enough good things about Alaia! We have used cat sitters before, but no one has been such a perfect balance of communicative and independent. She told us what we needed to know but also paid so much attention to the information and care instructions we left her. Things were complicated slightly when one of our cats got sick 12 hours before we were scheduled to leave. We were so worried about whether we would still be able to feel like our cats were in good hands, but Alaia could not have been more adaptive. She followed the last-minute changes we had to make to the care instructions very well, and we always felt our cats were well cared for and loved. They don't usually warm up to strangers very quickly, but by day two of our trip, they were being super affectionate and playful with their new friend. Alaia will absolutely be our new go-to sitter, and we are so grateful to have her!
When I book Mackenzie I know what I'm getting - amazing cat visits and peace of mind! Once again Mackenzie reliably took care of our cats when we had to travel, and I knew they would not just get visited but be entertained. His timely and thorough updates ensured we always knew the cats were safe and thriving. Would always always recommend!
Ruiyuan is the perfect cat sitter! She was always on time, clean and thorough. My cat absolutely loved her & was climbing onto her shoulders haha. When I got back, the litter box was clean, my kitty was fed and played with… it gave me peace of mind and I would really recommend Ruiyuan! She even took lots of pictures which is so nice because I was missing my cat, Millie. 5 stars!
Bohdana is the best babysitter I have ever seen! She is loving gentle and caring! And absolutely the biggest cat lover in this world! My cat loves her with all her heart! Koshka was loved groomed fed and played all time I was away! If I could I’d give 10 stars!
