Ben has been outstanding with Jango. He was attentive and understood all my requirements and took very good care of Jango. The best part was long walks every day which Jango really loved. I'm definitely becoming a repeat customer of Ben ?

Spencer was so good to my and Lester got to enjoy their daughter. I rested easy while away because after meeting Spencer I knew he was in goods. Leaving my pup and going anywhere without him is new to me and while it was challenging fir me, it was all possible after meeting Spencer and his pups. I would book with Spencer anytime if he will have us again. Thank you so much!

Kelly & William looked after our dog Duke (very large and a younger dog) while we were away out of country. They were very responsive and sent us updates/pictures/videos often which was very comforting. Duke seemed to enjoy his time with them and their dog Ziggy on walks and playtime. I would definitely book with them again!

Lucas and his girlfriend took great care of our little dog Jake while we were out of the country for a week. He had a great time and I could tell he enjoyed his stay and was very comfortable with them. Their home and space is very clean and they are very kind and accommodating. Jake is a senior chihuahua with a big personality and a couple of behavioral quirks and they handled this with understanding and patience. I would definitely recommend their services and would happily have Jake stay with them again!! :)

Gail and Felicity took excellent care of Stevie once again. He seems so happy and content with them! I also totally trust them to look after his eye issues - and that's a huge relief for me!

Jill-Ann has been taking care of our Nellie for a couple of years now, whenever we vacation, or do a weekend away. Nellie is a pretty fussy eater, so we were worried when we first went away leaving Nellie with Jill-Ann and her family. Well, after an hour we had pictures sent to us, with her little fellow and Nellie sitting next to each other snuggling up, and later on, more pictures of Nellie on a walk etc. and we have pictures sent to us every day, so we get to feel connected to our little girl. Jill-Ann is just wonderful with our Nellie. Now we don't hesitate to go away on a long weekend here and there nor worry about Nellie when we take a vacation away. We used to feel so guilty, as Nellie would NOT want to go to the doggy day-cares etc. Nellie comes home well loved and we can relax knowing Jill-Ann is taking good care of her. Thanks so much Jill-Ann!

We were so fortunate to have Andrew and his family look after Monty- who has lot’s of energy and is in his awkward teenage phase. Monty was so comfortable upon first meeting them. He made himself right at home. Andrew kept us updated with photos. Monty received lot’s of exercise, walks and adventures. He came home a very happy and tired pup! Knowing Monty was well cared for gave us peace of mind while we were away. We would definitely book with Andrew again! Thank you so much for taking such good care of Monty and treating him like your own pup.

I cannot be thankful enough for Lily. She takes care of my puppy Ellie with lots of love and kindness. She has been very thorough on her care and walks I actually left Ellie with her today and Ellie was extremely happy to see her, jumping around in celebration. She has also taken care of her while having an eye infection and administering her antibiotics. Lily's location makes having her as a sitter very convenient. Additionally, she is a very kind person to person aside from her love for dogs. I offer my highest recommendation for Lily, anyone would be very lucky to have her as a dog sitter!

Teddy seemed to be well looked after. With 4 guys in the house, he never lacked attention. I would not hesitate to have Teddy looked after by Muhammad.

Trent spoiled my dog with lots of exercise - he came home pooped after spending the night! He sent lots of photos during Yogi’s stay. I’d highly recommend Trent, and I’ll be using him again for sure!

Megan is an outstanding pet caregiver and phenomenal person! She’s responsible and loving and will look after your furry friend just as you would. She has a natural way with animals and dogs just gravitate towards her. Whether you have an outgoing or shy/nervous dog she knows how to be around them and will of course have no problem following your specific caregiving directions. She’s very communicative and I would have absolutely no hesitation recommending her to anyone looking for a dog sitter! My only reservation is that she would have less availability for me and my beloved dog ;) but she’s too good not to share!
