Cat Sitters in Capilano Highlands

Rocky

Rocky did an amazing job looking after Nala, my pool and the plants! He was very good at communicating with you about day to day things and sent me some great pics of Nala. I would recommend Rocky to look after your pet and house for peace of mind while you're on vacation! Thanks so much Rocky!

Karen

Another great sit by Karen. This was her first pet sit for our new cat Peep - who demands a lot of attention! Karen was great with her and kept us up to date with lots of pictures and videos. We came back to clean home and a happy cat - we couldn't ask for more. Thanks Karen!

Ben

We enjoyed having Ben and Susan sit our home and dogs. They were organized, responsible, kind and thoughtful. They clearly followed care instructions and left our home as it was found. We highly recommend.

Xandr

Mel just finished his second sit for my cat and I feel so lucky to have connected with him! He has really bonded with my pretty difficult cat and even figured out how to get her to enjoy being brushed which was a huge game changer. He took amazing care of the apartment and it felt great to come back to an immaculate apartment and happy cat. Don't hesitate to book Mel!

Mary

Mary (and her partner Keenan) were absolutely lovely. Mary was very organized, communicated well, treated our pets like her own, and was very clean and tidy! We have a lot of pets, which can be a lot to handle for some (four dogs, a cat, and chickens) but Mary wasn't even the slightest bit phased by this. I would definitely recommend Mary and her partner!

Anouk

Anouk took care of our cat, Rae, while we were away, and she was absolutely fabulous! Her excellent communication kept us at ease, and we loved receiving all the adorable cat photos during her stay. Anouk left the house even cleaner than when she arrived, washing all the linens she used and even making up a fresh bed for us, which was greatly appreciated after a long day of travel. We look forward to welcoming Anouk back in the future for petsitting and highly recommend her to anyone considering her services.

Rita

I’m so so pleased with Rita and Roger and how well they cared for my place and my doggies. Always responsive on text, showed up exactly on time, lots of sweet pics, excellent house and pet sitters! I will be inviting them back!

Emily

Would definitely have Emily watch our puppies and home again. Very tidy and updated us about the dogs plenty while we were out of town.

Frankie & Chris

Frankie and Chris were the perfect house and pet sitters. Both our dogs and cats were well cared for and we received regular photos and updates. If you’re lucky enough to get Frankie as your pet sitter you will be able to have a worry free trip and return to happy fur babies. We look forward to welcoming them back anytime.

Neale & Megan

Neale and Megan were awesome sitters, but I would only hire them if you want your animals to feel like they've been sent to a luxury spa! Seriously, they went above and beyond in their care of our animals and home, especially when dealing with our elderly dogs and all their issues. The dogs have informed us that we are welcome to go away anytime, as long as Neale and Megan can be their carers. ;-) Lovely people, and communication was outstanding. Highly Recommend!

Suzie

Suzie was a most wonderful cat sitter. She was very communicative, attentive and professional. I could tell that my cat was well cared for, and my place was totally clean and tidy when I came home. I would recommend Suzie for any house sit.

Ann

Ann and her partner Graham were excellent house and pet sitters. All communication was clear, professional and helpful. We felt at ease right away with their reliability. They came early to meet our dog and get a tour of the house. They communicated their travel plans in advance. We appreciated the updates and pictures. Our dog was healthy and happy. They took good care of our dog and house and we would recommend them easily. Thank you!

Nancy

We like Brennan and Mila but Mila is not around much, busy with her Kombucha business in Vista. That might just be during the busier summer season. Brennan is great with pets (my friend uses him often) but out of our 4 cats, I have one who does not particularly warm up to men as fast as women and another who just does not trust men and the two of them basically stayed downstairs the entire 9 days we were gone. They probably came up while he was asleep. He took good care of our hummingbirds and the cats but we would probably be better off choosing female pet sitters. 
The bed was stripped but the used sheets were left for us to wash when we got home. He did wash the towels and the rest of the house was clean. If your pets don't have a problem with males (my friend's pets really like Brennan) then he would be a good choice.

Alexandra

Kristen was fantastic!  She came for a tour and to meet the dogs before the trip, which was helpful for all of us.  She was very comfortable taking care of our geriatric, incontinent dog who takes medication twice a day and wears diapers.  She was very communicative about the dogs and house.  We would 100% recommend her and have her house sit again!
