“We were very happy when we moved to a new place and McKenna was able to look after our cat again. It gave us peace of mind knowing that our cat would be with someone familiar again. As usual, McKenna was very reliable, responsive and caring. It puts a smile on our face whenever we see the pictures she sends us when looking after our cat.”

I keep the pet's living area clean, regularly refreshing water, and cleaning up any messes.Communication: I provide regular updates to the client, sharing photos and information about their pet's well-being.

“I can’t say enough good things about Catherine and how wonderful our experience was with her. Excellent communication, professional, considerate, thorough, and super loving! My pup is relatively new to me, and as a rescue, I wasn’t sure how it would go. But Catherine met him, he loved her, and they did great all on their own. A huge blessing to me so I could enjoy my family holiday. Definitely will hire Catherine again. Thank you SO much!”

“Jess was absolutely amazing! She was incredibly kind and accommodating and communicated every step of the way. She sent pictures and updates after every visit and I know my cat was well taken care of. We will definitely book her again in the future and you should too!”


15. Alister A.
“Some people just have a natural ability to connect with pups, and Alister is definitely one of those people! Incredibly caring, responsible, and always up for an extended play in the park, I couldn't think of someone that I would trust more with my canine companion than Alister. My dog always transforms into a Tasmanian devil of excitement when Alister comes by to pick her up, (and sometimes I question where her loyalty truly lies). I've always found that dogs are an incredible judges of character, and from the way my dog lights up whenever she sees Alister (and by 'lights up' I mean that she gets so excited, her tail wags so furiously that it becomes a weapon) just goes to show what a fantastic canine caregiver he truly is! ”


16. Sadie K.
“Sadie is one of the most reliable and trustworthy people I know. She has the energy to match any dog, no matter ifs size, age, or personality. As a dog person through and through, growing up with dogs her whole life, rest assured she will take care of hour petbaby with the utmost care, respect, and responsibility. Your dog will be just as delighted to have Sadie as you will be.”




17. Ivan O.
“Alex Olchowski demonstrates exceptional ability in animal care, a dog lover and displays utmost responsibility, making him a highly recommended individual for dog care services.”


18. Sandra W.
“Sandi loves animals, especially dogs! I highly recommend her to care for your fur family members! Whether it be walking, playing with, or just hanging and keeping them company, Sandi is a great choice to take care of your pet!”


19. Colleen W.
“Colleen was a wonderful sitter for my two elderly dachshunds. She was very attentive to their needs and made sure they got their medications daily. Overall, Colleen is very warm and compassionate and you can tell she really loves animals! She’s also very communicative and would send us updates and pictures several times a day which made us feel much more relaxed and at ease. Would have her watch our pups again anytime!”
