Hello... we are Jon and Laurie. My wife and I are both retired. We are registered on other House/Pet Sit websites. When you use our services, you get both of us - your Furball Sitter Team. We are morning people, so if your four-legged family member(s) like early morning outings, we can easily accommodate them. Both my wife and I are fitness enthusiasts. We have the energy to handle, entertain and love-on the most demanding pups. Please read on to see additional value-added services you will only get when you use us as your house/pet sitters. When our children were young, our rescue dog Thunder (featured photo), became part of our family. Her days of terrorizing the neighbourhood squirrels and rabbits came to an end when she succumbed to age-related complications. We understand that many clients have different requirements according to their individual circumstances. Based on your needs, we offer expanded services not listed in the basic general duties on Rover. We offer playdate adventures to off-leash dog parks, visits to the beach, forest visits, social interaction and behaviour modification training, to list a few. These value-added features can be incorporated into any sit, according to your preference. Please contact us to get more information on all the added services we provide. We will always stay in touch with you with texts and photos (videos) - the frequency is your choice. Here is are a few reviews. I arrived home to a beautiful clean house – we cannot thank you enough. Stella looks amazingly healthy. My only regret is that I did not get to meet you before I left. Clive has not stopped telling me how much he enjoyed your company before he left. I am sitting here sipping the wonderful Pinot Grigio that you left in the fridge. I look forward to meeting you sometime in the future. Leyla Stewart – Oldsmar, Florida We could NOT have picked better home and pet sitters than Jon and Laurie! From the moment we first met them on FaceTime, we knew we had met like-minded people. We picked them up at the airport and that fact was supported as they are kind and open and respectful individuals. When we returned from our month vacation in Europe, we found our home and our little dog in perfect condition! Additionally, there was a beautiful bouquet of flowers, a loving letter of appreciation and food in the fridge. These two people are simply THE BEST and we have no hesitation in recommending them for any other home sitting or pet sitting assignment. Thank you Jon and Laurie, thank you. Barbi & Jim Graham - West Vancouver, B.C. Can’t express how pleased we were with the care and attention Jon gave our dog Coco. Coco is a rescue who is very wary of new people but he was so patient with and won her heart. Jon’s professional attitude and knowledge of dogs made us feel very comfortable. He took her out on many walks and adventures and regularly sent pictures. Coco had a great experience. Taught us to be a little more adventurous as well. This was our first experience with a house/pet sit and Jon made it amazing. Lynne V, - Whitby, Ontario
