Anner is amazing!!! He is literally the dog whisperer. Lola is happy and with her doggy friends when with him. I love my baby dog and I really appreciate how clean, kind and attentive Anner is. You cannot go wrong choosing him as your sitter!

Clinton and his son Lincoln were fantastic. Lots of pictures and videos along with walks and play sessions. Our pup might have had more fun on vacation than we did. Highly recommend!

Ivon was the most perfect peace of mind. We’re new to the area and she helped us in a pinch. She communicated often — and with lots of photos! We never had to wonder what our pup was up to, the updates were so frequent and thorough. And filled his day with so many fun activities. We’re so grateful!

About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life. I am a Vet Tech full-time with hands-on experience working around dogs in both grooming and veterinary settings. I’m comfortable caring for pets with different personalities and needs, including those who require extra patience or medical attention. I provide loving, reliable, and attentive care while keeping pet parents updated so they always feel at ease and informed. I currently work a full time job as a vet tech in a local general practice, if I’m pet sitting I’m allow to take them with me, where they are going to be loved for everyone working there. I’m off Tuesday, Thursdays and saturdays afternoon and Sunday all day, mon-wed-Friday work 9-5 My location is 2min from a dog park where I walk my own pets everyday. I’ll always use leash walking them. Also I’ll be sending pictures to owners every day to keep owners informed

Nandita did such an amazing job watching our Goldendoodle for nearly 2.5 weeks!! We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter while we were away, she was so great at providing us updates and pictures. We never once were worried about his wellbeing while being gone for so long. He got plenty of exercise and play, and we can’t wait to use her again when we go away next, knowing he’s in amazing hands!

We had such a wonderful experience boarding our miniature dachshund, Bailey! From the moment we dropped her off, it was clear she was in great hands. Jon took amazing care of her and we are really impressed with his knowledge and attention to detail. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing Bailey was safe, happy, and well cared for while we were away. We could tell he was treated like family. We’ll absolutely be booking with Jon again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy and experienced dog boarder!

Carrigan is a lovely young woman with a dog whisperer touch. Puppy Sammy immediately sat at her feet as we were preparing to leave her driveway for an overnight trip — his first stay outside of our home/with a non family member EVER. I was worried that he may not take well to the situation, but he adjusted quickly, and Carrigan took him on several long walks which exercised him and tired him out. I recommend Carrigan highly!

Clinton was such a lovely host to Beau. I don’t think Beau will be happy back with us.🤦🏻‍♀️ From plating his food - to getting his allergy medicine that we forgot to pack. jumping in when flights got cancelled, keeping him another night and providing his favourite fruits and veg for toppers and snacks throughout the day. A big gracias, merci and than you Clinton we will be back 🩵🤍🩷🙏🏼

Kevin and Ana are the best. Our pup Bruce is officially obsessed with them after a few walks and one weekend stay- he didn’t want to leave! They were so great about acclimating our dog with their neighborhood and house, then slowly introducing him to their own dogs. We received pics and videos all weekend, proving that he was (more than) well taken care of. We will definitely keep booking with these two!

Yury was also super sweet and always sent me videos and pictures. I will DEFINITELY book with her again! Thank you, Yury — we are so grateful!
