Information Joseph & Tina S. would like to know about your pet

It is good to know as much about your pet and their routine, as possible, so that we can cater to their needs and for you to know that they are being at tentatively cared for.

A typical day

This really depends on your pet and what is a typical day for them Tina and I are pretty chilled apart from yoga and golf or skiing in winter we tend to hang around (inside and outside of ) the house. We enjoy bushwalking especially around Kal Lake and would enjoy taking (when appropriate) your pet on a hike with us

Big yard lots of love

Pet care experience

G'day everyone, Tina and I moved from Australia to Canada in 2022 with our senior dog Sandy who sadly passed away one month short of her 17th ( Oct 2025) birthday. We have always had a dog(s) in our lives though for a number of reasons have decided that Sandy will be the last dog we own. However we love having dogs around and thought dog sitting allows us the flexibility to travel and when home to have a dog(s) to play with, hang out with and enjoy the variety of personalities they display. We are non smokers and have a very large fully fenced yard for your pet(s) to explore - the beach (pixie) is a short drive down the road if they are swimmers and there are some nice dog parks that we used to take Sandy to close by. Tina and I work part time so it is rare that no one would be home when your pet(s) stay with us. With us they will enjoy cuddles, tummy rubs and lazing on the grass in the sun or lounging on the sofa looking at the lake.

This is our first time booking with Rover.com. Joseph and Tina were the care providers for Charlie and Murphy. We are very happy with the care and attention our boys received. Our dogs settled in well and seemed very content with the experience. Joseph and Tina have a great home and yard to accommodate larger dogs. They were very flexible and allowed time for the dogs to get oriented and comfortable. It is important for Charlie and Murphy to get ample exercise, which Joseph and Tina were more than happy to make happen. All in all it was a great experience. We will not hesitate to book with them again.

Joe and Tina are fabulous! They provided a safe and loving environment for our dog Maverick and shared daily updates to put our mind at ease. They were very accommodating with changes in our travel plans. Absolutely I will be rebooking with them!

Joe and Tina went the extra mile for Monty. Many updates throughout the stay, many trips to the dog park, many cuddles, and many scritches, I could tell he was SO well cared for and loved his time at their great home and property. I would highly recommend Joe and Tina and will certainly be in touch for future pup-sitting. Thank you both again so so much!

Joe and Tina are the absolute best! They took in our puppy, Prairie, for a week on pretty short notice and gave her all the love and training she needed. They have a big beautiful fenced yard for Prairie to run and play in and were so patient with her, letting her explore and dig as she is trying to figure out the world. We will absolutely be sending Prairie back to them should we ever need their services again. Thanks Joe and Tina!
