Avril was amazing with my dog and cat. They were well taken care of and she was amazing at sending us daily pictures. Would 100% recommend to anyone gladly! Thanks again Avril!

Avril did a great job with my dog Tacoma! I would recommend using her for your dog boarding in the future. I will!

Disappointing. Avril didn’t appear to be very interested in house sitting or our dogs. Arrived late on the first night then left. I had to message her at 11:30pm to ask if she was going back to our house. She did, and stayed the night, but left the next morning, doing a couple of drop in visits before returning around 11pm that night. She left at 7:40am the following morning and didn’t come back until I messaged her after 3pm to ask that she let our dogs out as we were still hours away. She did pop by and let them out, but left 4 minutes after she got there. We received a single ‘update’, that being 1 pic each of our dogs at 11pm the 2nd night. The only other communication was to ask when we’d be home. When we got home the door to the back yard not only wasn’t locked, it wasn’t even latched. We were left feeling that not only didn’t she care much for our dogs, she didn’t care about our house or safety either. Very disappointing.

Avril was super great with my 1 year old Bernese Beana. She was super quick to respond and Beana came home super happy! Thank you Avril! :)
