You were a great caregiver for ruby. At almost 14 years old this lady lab really appreciated your gentleness and consideration. Thanks for the updates and pics.

Emily looked after my two senior dogs and house-sat while I was away for work. She provided regular updates on feeding, walks and the overall status of my dogs. I was extremely happy with the service. Typically, when I go away and leave my dogs with a sitter, I worry about their care. I didn’t worry once the entire time while Emily was caring for them. I ended up having to stay an extra day, and Emily was very flexible, accommodating and able to extend her service. I would definitely recommend her service, and I will be using it again in the future!

I've been close friends with Linnea for years, and I’ve seen firsthand the incredible care, love, and attention she gives to everyone around her, especially animals. She treats her dogs with so much kindness and respect, and she brings that same level of dedication to every pet she cares for. Linnea is one of the most hardworking, disciplined, and trustworthy people I know, with the integrity and reliability of a true competitor who I've seen excel at the highest levels of sport. She loves being outdoors, staying active, and taking her dogs on exciting adventures, ensuring they get plenty of exercise and stimulation. I would trust her with my house, my pets, and even my own life. If you're looking for a responsible, compassionate, and all-around amazing pet sitter, Linnea is the best pick!

Tara fulfilled our list of requests with no problem or miscommunications! Our dog is reactive so it’s important to be able to leave him with someone we trust. He loved his time with Tara and we will definitely be booking again! She was extremely polite and easy to work with and left our house clean and tidy.

I was very hesitant to leave my beloved dog because she takes awhile to warm up to people, but I had no reason to worry! Kathryn was an amazing pet sitter! She won my dog over completely right away! My dog fell in love with her and even looked for her around the house the first few mornings after I returned from my trip. Kathryn sent me updates and video each day which helped to keep me relaxed to know my dog was so well looked after. I would 1000% have Kathryn pet sit again and I can recommend her highly.

About: I grew up on a ranch in southern Alberta, caring for multiple litters of kitties and their mama’s, our 4 dogs (German shepherd, great dane, husky and an unknown breed). I’ve also cared for livestock and children, so I like to think I have a keen understanding of the delicate needs of living things! This is currently my only gig while in university! My schedule is flexible toward morning and afternoon care depending on the day, and I’m happy to work out a schedule around my classes/ extracurriculars that best suits your fur baby’s needs. I have not done any Rover pet-sitting ventures yet! (First time) But was engaged with my own animals when we had them. At least 1-2 walks per day for dogs if they can tolerate it, respect for feeding, cleaning and sleep schedules, as well as gentle redirection in any areas of discipline that may require special attention.

Sarah was very communicative and considerate with the needs of our dogs. She was also really accommodating when it came to meeting us beforehand a couple of times (both to make sure she was comfortable and the dogs). She left our apartment in the same condition in which we left it, the dogs were calm and comfortable upon our return. We are so grateful to Sarah for taking amazing care of our Dogs, and would absolutely have her stay with us again! Thank you!!!

Joanna and Mark stayed for one week in our home and cared for our high energy/anxious dog and laid back cat. They exceeded all expectations! Both are incredibly kind, caring and responsible people. Their #1 priority was the wellbeing of our pets, and they strived to make sure they were happy and healthy. Our dog and cat quickly fell in love with Joanna and Mark. They provided morning and evening updates along with photos to help put our minds at ease while we were on vacation. Our home was treated with respect, and we returned to a sparkling clean house! We highly recommend them, and look forward to having them stay again in the future.

According to Bailey, our Maltese, Pat treated him with attention and affection like never before (except from us) while we were away on Christmas vacation: he frankly hated to see her leave. Pat responded to our enquiry promptly and met with us on two occasions to get all the details regarding staying in our home, including Bailey's culinary details and exercise and sleeping preferences. Upon our return we found everything as we had left it and a very happy Bailey eager to have us go on another vacation in order to have fun with Pat again. We highly recommend Pat as she saved the situation for us. Initially, we did some "interviews" with a local kennel but were rejected since all Bailey did during the "all day trial" was try to escape. On future trips, Pat will be the first person we'll contact for the job.

About: I’ve owned dogs my whole life. I used to breed shorkies and had four generations. I recently lost my last one and she lived until 19 years old and two months. I am so sad without her. I would love to spend time with your pup. I work part time at home so will have lots of time to spend with your pet. I love to hike and go for walks all over the neighborhood. Exploring new places with a pup is my favourite thing to do. I am familiar with crate training and understand the importance of keeping your pet on a leash. I will respect and take good care of your dog and your home.
