“I cannot express enough how thankful I am for Carly’s outstanding service in taking care of Cue by letting him out twice a day and walking him. Her reliability is truly commendable; I can always trust that she will be there on time, which is incredibly reassuring for me as a pet owner. Carly’s communication skills are just as impressive, she consistently provides me with updates about Cue’s walks and shares any noteworthy observations, which makes me feel more connected to his daily activities. It’s evident that she genuinely cares about Cue’s happiness and well-being, treating him as if he were her own. I wholeheartedly recommend Carly to anyone in search of a trustworthy, dependable, and communicative pet caregiver”



“Overall Liz was great! Good communicator and sent lots of photos. She was very nice and friendly from the start. She gave detailed updates every day. Liz went above and beyond by cleaning the food and water bowls, scooping the litter and taking out the trash. The home was clean and just like how it was left when we came back.”


“Stephanie was amazing with care for our dog! She was on time, friendly, thoughtful, gentle, extremely knowledgeable and super responsive to requests and details about our fur baby! She even went above and beyond with making sure he ate all of his food/meds and sent detailed updates! Really appreciated having her watch over our pup!”


“Daisy is wonderful ! She knows how to relate to pets. Our shy cat comes out to be petted by her. Gives us piece of mind while we’re away that he’s happy!”


“Came to my poocharama at the last minute! Life saver”

About: What sets me apart as a pet sitter is my individualized care. Every animal is unique, and I tailor my approach to their specific needs and personality, ensuring they receive dedicated, personalized attention and genuine companionship, not just a standard service. Caring for animals isn’t just a job for me — it’s a natural part of my daily life. I structure my week around my pet-sitting commitments, making sure each visit gets the time and attention it deserves. Whether it’s early morning walks, midday check-ins, or evening cuddles, I plan my schedule to match each pet’s routine as closely as possible. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, and making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved is something I take seriously every day. When I’m caring for pets in their own homes, my goal is to keep them as comfortable and relaxed as possible by sticking to their usual routines. I take time to get to know each pet’s personality, preferences, and needs — whether that means keeping up with their favorite walking route, feeding schedule, playtime habits, or simply giving them space when needed. I always follow any instructions you provide closely, from medication to mealtime routines, and I keep the home tidy and secure while you're away. I treat every pet and home with respect, as if they were my own.

About: I've had a labradoodle in my heart long before I had him and still now that he has passed. I've trained him since he was a puppy and cared for him in his senior debilitating years. We took up running together the last few years of his life and my heart aches now everytime I see a dog and would love to share the love of dogs! Our house has been a revolving door for fosters in need, mostly puppies who I have found that I am potty training them within the first week of having them. And before I know if, they have found their furever homes. I'm currently still running and realize some dogs need more than just a walk! A quicker pace or run will do. So why not do it together? I'm a FT SAHM Volunteering mom. I have a flexible schedule between the hours of 8:30 am and 3:30 pm weekdays and can work other days as long as it's scheduled. I run every other day, so I am happy to take a dog out for more rigorous exercise! I will care for a pet in their home as if it was my own and per their owners requests making sure they are fed, able to go to the bathroom and are loved.
