1. Michelle H.

“Michelle was great and I would highly recommend her. Very communicative and punctual. She took great care of my cat while I was away. Can’t recommend her enough.”


2. Brian W.

“Needed cat-sitter for the first time ever after moving to Vancouver recently and was a bit nervous, but Brian was super communicative, friendly and professional putting me at ease. Most importantly, my shy cat who hides from everyone came right out to say hi at our first meet and greet and liked him right off the bat. I loved the pics and little videos during my four day work trip which were really the highlights of each day. Ruby seemed like a happy camper when I got back and I plan to hire Brian again. Thank you, Brian!!”


3. Acoya R.


“Acoya cared for our 3 cats over Christmas week, feeding them wet food and giving them attention 3 times daily. She was dependable, caring (our senior cat especially enjoyed her attention), and flexible (our departure flights ended up being delayed by one day). We especially appreciated Acoya agreeing to meet with us before booking to confirm details. Our cats sensed she was a cat person right away when she arrived! Our two boy cats usually hide from strangers, but they were out and about during her visit. Hopefully Acoya will be available the next time we need cat care!”

17. Abigail P.
About: I’ve been lucky to love so many cats and dogs throughout my life and I know the deep joy and commitment that comes with pet parenthood! I’m most passionate about ensuring doggies are given love through attention and play and understand the importance of quality outdoor time. I currently work at a middle school during the fall/winter/spring but my schedule will open up fully in the summer! I’d love to fill up my schedule with dog-walking and occasional drop-in pet care. I’m most interested in providing your doggies with exercise through neighborhood walks! I live in a great, safe area with many parks and sidewalks to easily navigate and ensure the safety of your pet, first and foremost.


18. Rachel S.


“I really appreciate Rachel’s patience with my boy. He gets nervous when I leave town and Rachel spent extra time with him to help him feel better. I look forward to having her watch my boy again!”


19. Kathryn V.
“Kathryn's love and devotion for dogs was apparent the first time I hung out with her. That evening she headed home early, because her schedule revolved around her dog. Keeping the rituals of feeding, walking, potty, and play time consistent was very important to her. Once I met her happy dog, I could see how beneficial and rewarding it was to be so responsible. Therefore, asking Kathryn to watch my puppy dog while I've been out of town has been a no brainer. I have always felt confident that she will be cared for with the utmost love.”


20. Angela B.
“We've been so lucky to have Angela as our dog companion and walker, and we truly can't say enough good things about her. She takes care of our three pups with so much love, patience, and attention-it's clear from the start that she genuinely cares about their well-being. Angela is incredibly reliable, always shows up on time, and keeps us updated with messages and adorable photos from their walks and playtime. It's such a relief knowing our dogs are not only getting exercise, but are also in the hands of someone who treats the like her own. We're beyond grateful for her and would wholeheartedly recommend Angela to anyone looking for a dedicated, trustworthy, and truly wonderful dog companion.”
