Carolyn and Jeff
We were understandably apprehensive about leaving our home and animal in someone else's care but Carolyn and Jeff were absolutely the BEST experience we could've asked for. Our 110 pound Rhodesian Ridgeback, Bodhi, had a few special needs which Carolyn and Jeff handled as well as if he were their own. It's always a little nerve-racking to leave your fur-baby behind (especially when you fall into the "dog crazy" category) and Carolyn and Jeff were amazing at alleviating those fears. We had confirmed their stay three months out and their communication leading up to the visit was phenomenal; we really got to get a great feel of each other during that time. I had invited them to come get settled in the night before, have them over for dinner, and get to know one another and it turned out to be a great dinner party with lovely guests. Even when they pulled up in our driveway I felt that I could already trust them as we had such good communication prior to their arrival. So when we left the following day, it was a relief to know my dog and house were in good hands. While we were on vacation, they sent pictures of Bodhi daily (and sometimes more than once!), with regular updates on his eccentric and goofy behavior. They took him on two walks a day and had no issues feeding him his special raw food diet as well as his midday bones for teeth cleaning. When we got back from the trip the house was in great shape and I could tell my dog was not only relaxed but even missed his temporary guardians! As a very gracious and generous plus, Carolyn and Jeff left us some lovely flowers and a beautiful card. If we ever have a chance to use them again in the future I won't hesitate! We could not have wished for better or more trustworthy people.

Responsible retired couple
Loved having Janet and Al take care of my puppy!. While I was overseas, they would take pictures of Aoife and go to McDonald’s and use the Wi-Fi to send them to me since I have no Wi-Fi – simply can’t afford it and do these mission trips. At My request they actually stayed overnight a couple of weeks before my petsit d/t they had two pets sets further south. Aoife warmed up to them immediately! They made sure they played ball with her and walked her every day, even though it rained a lot of the days they were here. She was well taken care of. I never worried the entire time I was overseas. My house was very clean when I got home and Janet left me little flower .arrangements and a wonderful dessert for me to enjoy! You will be completely satisfied having them pet sit for your beloved pet! I hope they come back again!!!

Animal loving couple to look after your pets and home
Patti and her husband were dream house sitters and looked after our dog beautifully and with care. It was so easy to hand over our house to them and not worry about our old dog while we were away. I would not hesitate to recommend them to others and they will be my first call when we travel next time. Love this service!!

Caring and Responsible Homeowners Would Like to Housesit For You!
We couldn’t have asked for better care for our pup. Kelly and Patrick provided a video chat before the visit and came to meet us in person before we left for our trip. We felt very relaxed knowing our pup was in good hands. We couldn't have asked for a better experience!

Animal lover working online, so your pets will get plenty of love!
This was Courteney’s second time staying with us but first time for an extended period of time. She communicated daily with us on how our dog and chicken were doing and updated us daily on what they got up too. She was flexible when our dates differed from the original set dates and communication was excellent from when we first agreed to have her come stay at our house. She is tidy took great care of our house including shovelling and taking the garbage out. I am sure the house was cleaner then when we left it. Our dog, Bella was sad to see her go and every time she goes outside she is hoping that someone will be as great as Courteney and play fetch with her- I think she misses her already! I would recommend Courteney to anyone looking for a kind, trustworthy responsible person to look after your pets. You and your pet would be lucky to have her.

Caregiver Extraordinaire
It was an absolute pleasure to have Rayna stay at our home and take care of our little zoo. She communicated with us the whole time we were away, sharing adorable pictures of all our pets. We felt so good knowing that they were being so well taken care of. Heidi, our dog, fell in love with Rayna. She kept her busy with plenty of walks and hikes. Rayna also kept the house perfectly clean. If the opportunity ever presents itself, we would be grateful to have Rayna back again.

Professional, non-smoking couple. Experienced, reliable home owners.
Five stars for Claire and Terry! They were wonderful, responsible, tidy, communicative and great company. My two boys settled in with them super fast and Terry even received the much-vaunted stamp of approval when Grimth decided to sleep on his feet at night. This is a big deal and should not be underestimated, as Grimth is very sparing with his sleeping honours. I highly recommend this pair for any of your housesitting needs.

Retired Canadian couple who love animals
Robert and Roberta were the ideal house sitters. They are clean, punctual, organized, and were very caring toward your dogs, home, and garden. Can't say enough good things about how safe we felt having this couple take care of our dogs.

Pick us! Pick us!
It was great to have Nicole stay with our pets and look after our home - she took great care of both! She was very responsive and kept us up to date on things at home. She took our dog for long walks and would send photo updates! We'd be more than happy to have Nicole back again, and would definitely recommend her to other.
Seàn was an amazing pet and house sitter! He was super communicative and took amazing care of my dog Nala and cat Bruce. They were happy and loved while I was away- I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter for the two little fur babies! He sent great pictures and checked in every day so I had nothing to worry about. On top of all that, he also kept my place immaculately clean and left my place in wonderful shape. We can’t wait to have him back to sit and I would highly recommend him to anyone and everyone looking for a sitter!
Pares is an experienced and quality sitter and we knew our cat Juniper (and a few plants) was well cared for. We received regular updates and photos which was really nice to have during our travels. While we missed Juniper, we could see that she enjoyed receiving cuddles and attention from Pares. Upon returning home, our flat was clean and tidy, and Juniper was very happy! Thank you for taking care of her!
Sabre is a sweet, honest person who stepped up at the very last moment (after the prior sitter flaked out) to watch our dog and cat for 17 days. When there were a couple minor accidents, she informed us of them right away. One involved a burnt pan (easy to do if you’re not familiar with an induction stovetop) which she offered to replace. Sabre also washed the towels and sheets, and made up the bed before we got home. The yard was pooper scooped and litter box was clean. Pets seemed well-cared for. When she had to leave town for several hours one day, she made sure to arrange for our neighbor take care of the pets. Additionally, I appreciated how she didn’t assume that it would be ok to bring her cat. When we found out she was going to keep her cat in a kennel during her stay here, we told her she could bring him which worked out fine. Overall, I would confidently recommend Sabre to watch your pets and house.
My husband and I are so grateful for Cendy staying with our ~1yr old cat for nearly a full month. We were nervous to leave her for so long but Cendy had Wilma literally eating out of the palm of his hand and snuggling with him in no time. Cendy was incredibly communicative with us and attentive to Wilma consistently for the entire duration of the sit which was such a relief and gave us the piece-of-mind needed to fully enjoy our trip. We returned back to an impeccably clean apartment and a very content kitty. For the first few days back Wilma was definitely looking around for Cendy, missing her buddy. We (and Wilma!) would welcome Cendy back any time, especially for a longer stay knowing how responsible of a sitter he was. Couldn't recommend enough!
Tracy was an ideal pet sitter when we left for 12 days. She was communicative, friendly, and most importantly took perfect care of our two cats and our house. I would highly recommend her for any sit!
Tonya was great and filled in after our other sitter had to cancel. She was very self sufficient and navigated acclimating herself to everything since she arrived after we left. She gave thoughtful updates on my cat and I could tell she really enjoyed her, so that means the world to me! She left the place immaculate and we will certainly have Tonya back!
Chris was a fantastic cat sitter for our elderly and high maintenance kitty. Chris was the perfect combination of responsible and on top of her medication needs while also being calm and relaxed about her picky eating habits and the need to monitor her food and medication consumption. He was prompt, easy to get a hold of, responsible, and overall, a great sitter. I would definitely recommend him and most certainly hope to have him stay with her again.
Cat and Paul were wonderful sitters - our cats were contented and calm when we returned. And the house was spotless. Plus Paul mowed our entire yard including the back meadow - what a surprise! We very much enjoyed visiting with them as well and getting to know them. Highly recommend :)
Rick and Sally are marvelous cat sitters and we would gladly have them back anytime. We highly recommend them to any and all pet owners. They arrived when they said they would and were ready to go when we returned, making sure our cats were present before departing. Our home was left spotless, undoubtedly better than we left it for them. We can't urge you enough to engage them if you can!
Super nice sitters and extremely flexible. Really enjoyed their company and I only regret that I was too frazzled to chat with them more and get to know them! Kept the house super clean, pets loved them. Dog especially. Had a little problem with my new kitten not meshing well with the older cats (which was not too surprising since cats can be territorial). Pennee was very patient and gave me constant updates and tips. And the older cat was much more calm when I came home. Highly recommend and welcome back anytime!
