Jenna was amazing! You can tell she really loves animals, and does everything she can to make sure they’re loved and taken care of while you’re away. Our cat warmed right up to her and they got along great! Would absolutely trust her with our pets again and would recommend others to do the same!

Norma was great in taking care of our cat. Her daily reports were super detailed and always with pictures. I can certainly say that Rocky had a great time in her daily visits. If I need a sitter again, without a doubt, I will ask Norma again.

Would give her 6 stars if we could. Cleah was an absolutely wonderful sitter for our cat while we were gone for two weeks (and during Tropical Storm Fiona!). She took pains to sit and play with Orson, kept us updated on him with pictures and notes after every visit and went above-and-beyond, post-storm, to ensure that he remained well cared for. Assuming she wants to, we'll want her back for future cat-sitting. Thanks Cleah!

About: Outside of being a huge dog lover, I teach group fitness helping many feel active and fit daily. Which is a service I can also provide for your dog! My animals are my kiddos and I think I love animals more than people.... I am open to group walks, or solo walks, agility walks and senior doggos walks. I have my cpr c and aed course. I am happy to feed them, make sure they get their pills/supplements if they need them! My specialty is senior dogs and rescue dogs. Both of mine were rescues and both were seniors! I have enough energy for many, and I hope that I can make your dog happy healthy and tired by the end of my visit! I have a flexible schedule and can cater it to your dog’s schedule! I update my calendar weekly, so please check out of the dates work for you. I have a big backyard that is not fenced but I would keep your babies close by and on leash. I am also beside a big park with lots of grass and things to sniff. Lots of sunlight in my space if they like to be sunbeam dogs. And I’m always keen to get up and moving if the dog is restless. At my drop in visits, I will check their food, water, temperament, let them do their business outside. And hang out with them for few minutes. Play some games and get them comfy again. On doggo walks we will explore the neighbourhoods, smell all the smells and take all of the pictures. I work from home. So I have a flexible schedule. Dogs can go outside with me every 2-4 hours. I generally let the pets tell me when they need to go out. The dogs are really my clients. So I let them tell me what they need. I also try and take the dogs place where they will enjoy themselves. If you have a more reactive dog, I will find spaces the can be without too much stimulation. I’ve worked with many animals that have some level of reactivity, and I do my best to make them feel comfortable and safe.

We asked Loren to house and dogsit for our reactive, kinda crazy, kinda aggressive pooch (Tuzzee) for 2 weeks over the holidays, we gave her lots of instructions and were a bit nervous cuz our dog is really tricky in a lot of ways but Loren did a fantastic job, Tuzz seemed really happy when we got back and all the pics Loren sent us during our trip served as proof of how comfortable around her he was :) Highly recommended!

Saad was a great caregiver for my dog. He had to house sit my dog as well as two of my cats for 10 days while I was away. Saad consistently took my dog on walks and showed great responsibility of taking care of my dog. I was pleased to be kept updated by saad on a regular basis when he took my dog for walks.

Hannah was fantastic with our 5 month old golden! She did not hesitate to reach out with questions and made sure we got some cute pics. Despite the rain she was able to tire her out! Will definitely be reaching out to her again.

Sophie was great for checking in on my cat for three days, I would recommend her 10/10! She always sent many photos of my cat on her visits which made me feel much better about leaving him at home for a few days. She played with him in addition to feeding, water and litter. She was very easy to communicate with as welll!
