“Lucille was very good with Dash while we traveled. He looked forward to her visits an shorts walks & belly rubs. I was do glad she could step in on short notices, because our other sitter had to cancel at last minute.”
“Our dog is not easy and not good with people. Amber won her over AND truly cares about our dog. Amber always does the little things to make sure all is good. Good communication and care.”

“This was my first time using Rover in my new area, and I am so grateful that Holly was the one taking care of my dogs! Holly was punctual, responsive and really cared about taking care of my animals. She even brought in a package that was delivered which was very nice of her. I would 100% recommend Holly and will requesting her again!”

“Jacob was an absolute professional! Extremely polite and sincere. He took amazing care of our 6 dogs and 2 cats while we were away on a weekend trip. I would highly recommend Jacob if you’re looking for someone who truly loves animals.”
“Samantha was quick to respond to my request. Helped me out with short notice too! She also was kind enough to work with my puppy on commands and training which was very helpful! Thank you!”

“Becky is so good with our particular cats. They are really starting to enjoy her visits. She even has our trouble maker who hunger strikes when we leave convinced to keep eating. She’s delightful!”
“My GSD is very picky about who she will let in the yard. Athena LOVED Misty. She came and played with her and sent lots of pictures. I've booked her again.”

About: I’m exceptional in training puppies, cats and dogs. If necessary I can discipline although I prefer positive encouragement towards good behaviour with rewards. I love teaching commands using an animals favourite treat or a clicker, whichever is more effective. When it comes to older animals it’s critical for me to be aware of and understand their history. Dietary restrictions, sleeping/eating habits, medication and application processes, etc. I love all animals but ultimately will treat them as family with the love and support they each deserve. I’m currently working as a part time Youth Director at a local church so I have plenty of time throughout my days to play with and care for your furrr babies. My main goal currently is to fill in the gaps of my day to day with joy and happiness that only pets can bring. We all need something to look forward too to make life enjoyable and for me right now that’s figuring out how to play with as many animals as possible to make sure they’re all loved while you’re away. Our home has as expansive enclosed back yard for dogs to run around in and play or simply take a potty break. Our living room and kitchen area are great open places for cats to explore and the basement is very clean and comfortable as well. Although, I prefer to go to a cats home instead because as you know being a cat owner most cats dislike change of environments or any change in general for that matter. When it comes to walks I like to take as many precautions as viable. Dog parks are available and accessible more so during the day. There are plenty of nearby parks in my neighbourhood as well as bike paths and sidewalks. I’m open to any suggestions for locations or preferred methods of transportation as some animals dislike car rides so a simple walk around the block would suffice. I take any and all advice seriously when it comes to the attention and care of your animal.
“Amazing! Would trust her with my pup anytime. Asked questions about what I wanted, walked my pup and tired her out, and even worked on some training and tricks with her. Definitely would recommend her!”

“Katie was awesome! She was extremely communicative and that put me at ease. Thank you for taking such good care of my fur babies and giving them all the love. She also took the best pictures! Thanks again :)”
