Awesome! Clarice can be reserved when she first meets a new person, but she warmed right up to Rose! I loved getting the dozen or so photos Rose sent every day, and her updates showed how thorough she was each visit. I will definitely book her again when I go away again!

Eliot was amazing with our sweet and somewhat shy cat, Lupine. Her daily updates and photos were greatly appreciated. It was so comforting to know Lu was well taken care of while we were away. Highly recommend and will definitely book again!

I’m so happy that Stacey was there to check-in on my cat over a holiday weekend. She responded right away to my initial inquiry and had great communication while I was away. It was such a comfort to know she was taking good care of my pet - will be using her services again, and highly recommend Stacey to anyone!

Rhonda was amazing with my cats! I felt so comfortable having her watch them for 10 days. She sent along pictures and updates which kept my mind at ease. My cats were also very comfortable with her as they showed her their true, sweet, funny, and sometimes a little weird, personalities. Please don’t hesitate having her watch your pets, she is wonderful!

Lindsay was amazing! I was worried about leaving my cat Juniper as she's a bit skittish; however, she warmed right up to Lindsay. Lindsay arrived promptly, gave me detailed accounts about how Juniper was doing and sent me lots of pictures. So I can now plan another trip and no longer have to worry about Juni!

We love Jackie! We have two crazy active pups and Jackie is so great interacting with them. They loved her immediately, Dapper even whined for 15 minutes after she left because he wanted his friend to come back! I have always been hesitant to rely on a sitter for them, but since meeting Jackie I feel very confident and secure leaving my dogs care to her! Thank you!!!

I've known Josh for over 15 years and have seen first hand how he prioritizes the needs of his pets. He is reliable, attentive and patient. Above this, he is committed to the comfort and well-being of any dog in his care. On a personal note, Josh understands the unique bond between a person and their canine companion. I recently had to bring my own dog to his final rest and could not have asked for a more caring and compassionate friend during what was an awful time. Peace of mind is so valuable when you need to trust your pet to the care of another. I can say with complete confidence that both you and your pet will have a great experience when you book with Josh.

Haley Jo was fantastic! We felt very comfortable with her when she came to do the meet & greet and our first impression was spot on. We are so fortunate to have found her. Luna (our cat) liked her right away. We got great pictures after every visit and a detailed report about the visit. I would definitely recommend Haley Jo, and will definitely have her watch Luna again!

The first time I met Alison, she was on the ground playing with a cute toy poodle. Dogs love her more than food, and she reciprocates. I have a lot of rules for my dog Lupin, which makes it stressful for me to find someone to take care of him. Alison has relieved all that stress by being unbelievably considerate of my often quirky requests. She's highly detail-oriented and disciplined with the doggo but also knows when to shower him with love when appropriate. Lupin is a Vizsla who needs essentially infinite exercise. Alison will take Lupin on 4+ mile runs which means I get a happy dog and a calm evening after work. I can't recommend Alison enough! She quite literally will go the extra mile for you.

About: I grew up volunteering at a dogsledding kennel and eventually started working at the summer camp that was run there. In my 5 years there I learned a lot about exercising, caring for, and training both Siberian and Alaskan huskies as well as the farm dogs there. I gained a lot of experience caring for dogs with medical issues, older dogs and training puppies. I currently work as a nanny/household manager for a family with a black lab and have been working alongside them to help train her in better manners, specifically around food. I also make sure that she is fed and exercised every day. I have a very flexible schedule in my current job, leaving me with time for pet care every morning until the early afternoon, and then again in the later evening. I also have availability to do overnights at the pet owner's residence both during the week and weeknights. I love to bond with pets and gain their trust. I make sure to read their signals and respect their boundaries while also respecting their owner's rules and boundaries. I'm very big on giving love and attention if dogs want it and taking them out to go on walks and get all their wiggles out. When in someone else's residence, I make sure to respect their space and their home.

About: I'm a lifelong dog owner and have enjoyed the experience of teaching my daughters the joys and responsibilities of caring for our dogs. As lead parent, I've been passionate about opting for daily outdoor adventures with my daughters and dogs and have often heard, "Boy, you have your hands full!", to which I have always replied, "I need to keep everybody happy somehow." Romps on the beach or marsh, trail running, and biking or rollerblading the Eastern Trail are just a few of our favorites. Over the past few years, we've said goodbye to our beloved Boss and Kona. We're still craving dog energy around our home and outdoor adventures, and want to assist other families in the Scarborough community to achieve "a tired dog, a happy dog" experience that we've known and love. We feel blessed to have a doggy daycare buddy, Finnegan, with us most weekdays and he is dog friendly. I work from home while my daughters are in school and am off with them during the summer months. We are available to care for your dog throughout the day and evening, and love boarding dogs for overnights. Summer hours are very flexible for walks. During the school year we can walk your dog weekdays after 3:30PM; or as scheduled outside of those hours upon request. My Mondays and Fridays tend to be light on my primary work and I carve out time for doggy adventures and exercise. We can accommodate based on your needs and recommendations specific for your dog(s). Please let me know if your dog has any special needs or behavioral issues beforehand. If any medication needs to be administered, I'd be glad to assist.

Sarah did an awesome job taking care of our very needy pittie while we were on vacay. She had no issues making his custom packed kongs every day and giving him his medications. Sarah didn't have any issues walking him or taking him on adventures and Petey adores her.

Anna was great dropping in to check on our cat while we were away. She is reliable and even braved the bad winter storm we had to check on our cat. We appreciate her and won’t hesitate to book with her next time.
