Birch obviously loves dogs! She took care of medications and mobility issues with our senior dog. She spent time with her outdoors, and took her for gentle strolls (as we requested). We were pleased to see that our dog was happy to see us at the end of her stay, but not frantic to get into the car to leave. Birch was responsive to questions and pleasant to work with.

Our little dog stayed with us Birch for a week. He was well cared for and seemed to enjoy himself there. I really appreciate it. The pictures we received while he was there. I wouldn’t hesitate to use this sitter again.

It was a fantastic stay, with walks and photos. She also very thoughtfully made Sophie a bandana. Our dog would definitely enjoy staying again!

Birch took fantastic care of our dog! It was easy to organize a meet and greet, and she was ready at the organized times. She was thoughtful in her care, taking our dog for lots of walks and giving treats. She also very considerately sewed our dog bed. I would highly recommend her!

Birch is a caring, responsible, honest and dependable person. She has had several pets of her own, 2 dogs that lived into their teens and her cat who was 18 when he passed. I know Birch is missing them, and though she is not quite ready to adopt another pet, she would like to be with animals.

Schedule

I have a flexible schedule, so can fit in walks and play. Weekends we tend to go camping but have a permanent site that is dog friendly and a great place to explore.

Safety, trust & environment

No pets, yard is not fenced so outside time would be leashed and supervised. If your dog has a favourite toy of dog bed plenty of room to enjoy. I live in a quiet small town with lovely walking paths.

A typical day

I miss my daily walks with my 2 dogs, it was a fun routine, watched them explore their surroundings and just get to be carefree.

I would just like to know any history of leash aggression towards other dogs. Makes it easier on walks to avoid a few yards in our area where I know their dogs wander free.
