“We left our little dog with Narly for a second time. Just like the first our dog enjoyed being there, especially having the company of the other dogs. You are really awesome with the care & attentiveness of our family pet. Thank you so much”

“My Claire stayed with Samantha. She gave Claire space to settle down and get comfortable in a environment that was not home. I felt at ease leaving Claire with Samantha. I received pictures even it though it was slightly over a 24 stay. I would totally recommend Samantha!”

“Nachay was amazing! She sent us constant updates on Louie, sent us pictures, videos and even took the time to facetime with us. Louie had the best time and was very comfortable. Couldn’t recommend higher!”

“There are no words to express how thankful I am for the excellent care Grace provided our puppy when we went away on vacation. My puppy is an anxious dog, he’s never away from us and every time we go on vacation and get him back he always tells us how mad he was for leaving him. This was the first time that my dog didn’t show that attitude. He stayed happy and was back to his old cheerful self. Grace made his stay comfortable, he was kept clean and fed. We were updated with pictures and videos. Grace had also offered to have our dog spend a few hours several days before the real vacation to get my dog acclimated. Her place is very clean, has no odor, is air conditioned with a closed fenced yard for play. My dog who does not eat when not at home, ate and he was the same dog as we left him. I think that tells ALOT! We will use Grace again and we’re lucky to have found her. God bless you! ❤️”


“Chris has watched Greta multiple times now and is my go to. She gets to snuggle on bed and hang out on the couch just like at home. Always professional and send images and video. Great sitter”

“I can’t recommend Samantha enough! From the moment we met, I knew my dog was in amazing hands. She treated my pup like family — giving them tons of love, attention, and care. While I was away, she kept me updated with regular messages and adorable photos, which gave me so much peace of mind. My dog came home happy, calm, and clearly well taken care of. It’s such a relief knowing there’s someone I can fully trust with my fur baby. I’ll absolutely be booking with Samantha again. Thank you for everything!”

“Duvin provided a great service watching my dog . My dog does have some anxiety and he was super comfortable staying with Duvin . He sent pictures and was very accommodating . My dog got along well with his dog . I would for sure use him again .”


“This is the first time I used Denise and was very happy with her watching my dogs. They seemed happy in the pictures she sent me. They came home fine. I would definitely recommend her and use her again.”

“Janine was great! She made Rory feel comfortable and took good care of her for a week while we were away. I got daily updates and would definitely have Rory stay with Janine again, which I know Rory would love.”

“Amazing i highly recommend. Very warm and welcoming and kept me updated every day with pictures and even was able to video call to speak to my fur baby when i missed him.. i will be booking very soon again . I can tell he miss them already so that’s a plus in my book”

“Jessica is a dedicated dog sitter. She is a professional who understands the needs and importance of providing excellent dog care. Thx, Jessica for everything u do.”

“Kara-Ann took wonderful care of our cat, Bernie, while we were away. She was reliable, attentive, and clearly cared about making sure Bernie was comfortable and well cared for. We really appreciated the updates and the peace of mind knowing he was in good hands. Bernie warmed up to her quickly, which says a lot! We would absolutely book with Kara-Ann again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and dependable pet sitter.”

About: Hi I'm Nicole! I’ve been dog-sitting for over 4 years for family, friends, and neighbors, caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments. I’m responsible, attentive, and genuinely love spending time with animals, whether that means feeding, walking, playing, or just keeping them company! I make sure each pet feels comfortable, safe, and well cared for while their owners are away. I’m a college student, so I’m home during breaks (including holidays) and for about four months in the summer. I also come home frequently on weekends during the school year. In the summer, I’m available any time of the week and have a very flexible schedule, so I’m able to give your dog plenty of attention, playtime, and care throughout the day. I have a large yard where dogs can play and get plenty of exercise, and I always make sure to supervise them while they’re outside. My home is a spacious two-story house where dogs are free to roam and feel comfortable. I treat every dog like my own and many have even slept in my bed! I also have experience adjusting to each dog’s needs, whether that means crating them, sticking to a routine, or giving them extra attention and care.
“Michelle was amazing she treated my furry baby like it was hers . I was very nervous about leaving her for the first time with a stranger but she not only reassured me she will be fine I received Videos and pictures text through out the day about her behavior and how she’s doing I’m definitely going to book her again me and Brooke thanks you so Michelle PS she even gave her a goodie bag with treats a card and a new toy so sweet thank you again”

“Sherry and Walter looked after our little puppy Figo for a night, and were fantastic sitters! They played with him, made him feel very comfortable with lots of snuggles, took him on a lovely walk and sent us lots of updates throughout. We’d recommend them highly!”

“We had such a wonderful experience! Dior felt right at home from the moment she arrived and was so well cared for during her stay. We loved getting updates and could tell she was receiving lots of attention, love, and even some extra treats. Especially because Dior was in heat we were so happy she was comfortable. The thoughtful gift keychain was such a sweet surprise and really showed how much they care about both pets and their owners. We came home to a happy pup and couldn't ask for more. We will definitely be returning and would highly recommend them to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and attentive to watch their dog!”

“Adriana was such a savior for us this past week, she took great care of our little friends. Sent us pics everyday ensuring that they were being treated great and happy and around loving energy. We will definitely be going back to Adriana in the future.”

Cannot say enough great things about Sam and her family. You can truly tell they love animals and took care of my dog like he was their own. She kept me updated and send me pictures for the week I was away. My dog truly did not want to leave when I went to pick him up. I know he cannot wait to go back!

Alex took great care of our puppy, Fintan! He was able to accommodate us at the last minute, took the time to find out where we were in our training with Fintan and what kind of issues we wanted to work on, sent us pictures and videos, and took the time to socialize our puppy. Would be happy to book with him again!
Once again, I was worry and stress free leaving Lucas in the care of Caitlyn and family. They are so kind and caring with Lucas. He is particular and has specific needs which they are able to accommodate. I received updates, pics and stayed informed of his care during our time away. Thank you so much for taking excellent care of my furbaby :)

Stephanie is an incredible pet sitter! We are so grateful to her for taking such great care of our dog (1 year, 8 months old) for a weekend stay. We have a high-energy dog who requires a lot of attention (e.g., play time/soccer in the backyard and walks) - Stephanie truly went above and beyond for our dog. Stephanie also constantly checked in with multiple photos every day (during the weekend stay), provided updates, and followed our detailed instructions. We can tell our dog enjoyed his time with Stephanie as well! Thank you very much to Stephanie for being a kind-hearted, loving, attentive, reliable, and wonderful dog sitter!

Shushma and her family are amazing! She saved me during the last snow storm when the person meant to watch Haddie couldn’t get home due to flight cancellations and it was absolutely meant to be. She provided lots of updates and it was clear the family and their dogs had completely embraced Haddie as one of their own.

This was Rory’s second stay with Julie. Julie is amazing! Rory had such a good time her first stay she dragged me to Julie’s door on our second visit. Julie is very caring and Rory got plenty of playtime outdoors in Julie’s fenced in yard. Julie is a pleasure to work with, very flexible, and Rory will definitely come back.

This is my first time using Rover so I was unfamiliar with the whole process. I had lots of worries and questions but Catalina did an amazing job with my dog. She kept me updated every day and sent me lots of photos! She made this experience a great one. I will definitely be booking her in the future. Highly recommend!

This was the first time we left our 12 year old pooch with someone other than family. Nancy was great. She gave us updates and pictures while we were away which kept my daughter so happy. Our dog looked like she wanted to stay longer when we picked her up. Would book again without hesitation. Thank you for giving us peace of mind during our vacation!
