Pet Sitters in Edmonton

Michaelle

This was a great family to have as house sitters. They were organised and helpful. I think there was a competition running for the affections of our dog. And when one of the pumps we use to water the fruit and veg failed they managed to rearrange things so they were still able to water and we returned to living plants.

Molly & Bob

Molly and Bob took care of Marley for three weeks and every things worked perfetly. Communication with them was easy, they were reliable and made us feel very confident about how they would take care of our cat and our home.

Paul & Tracy

Paul and Tracy were lovely and took great care of both our home and pets. They met the pets a couple of times before staying so that we were all comfortable with them coming into our home after we had left. Upon our return, our pets were happy and our home was clean. I would recommend Paul and Tracy wholeheartedly!

Andria

if i could rate them higher than 5 STARS, I would. Andria and Chris were such amazing pet minders and house-sitters. I was actually sad when we I dropped them off at the train station the morning after we returned. We connected so seamlessly and so easily; it felt like family was in town for a visit! Incredibly thoughtful and so attentive and loving to our little boy, Jack! He had the best adventures and was a super happy boy! Chris and Andria were so respectful - we wanted them to relax and make themselves at home (and i hope they did) but once we got back, there was very little indication they made ANY impact - EVERYTHING was in place ... neat AND tidy! It was a dream sit and we can only hope that they will return to Seattle and let us host them again! PS - We have been waiting months for our local handyman to fix our back gate latch and when i got home, it was FIXED! i actually texted our guy to thank him but he said he didn't do it! it was CHRIS!!!!! he fixed it and i will forever be in his debt - Andria and Chris are really so good!!!!!!

Laura

Laura went above and beyond. Her daily updates about Roman truly had us giggling out loud and made us feel SO at ease about him being in her care. All of her updates and photos made it clear that she truly understood Roman and his personality & quirks. Ya'll, she EVEN GOT HIM A BIRTHDAY PRESENT. ❤️😭 (He has been obsessed with this random little blue fluff for MONTHS, but overtime, has destroyed it into pieces - so she got him a new one on his birthday. Like come on!!!) She was also so tender and sweet regarding the very recent passing of our Mastiff, who was Romans best friend, and she knew that Roman might need extra care & love. On top of the incredible care & thoughtful (and hilarious) daily updates and photos, Laura left the house spotless and was very responsive & fast in her communication. Incredibly grateful. Thank you, Laura!

Katelyn & Declan

This was the second time that Decland and Katelyn took care of our animals, but we had 4 new dogs for them to care for! From the moment they arrived, it was clear that our menagerie was in good hands. Our dogs, who are quiet the handful, immediately took to them, showing an uncommon level of comfort and trust. Each dog received individual attention, exercise, and plenty of playtime. Caring for horses, sheep, and chickens requires a unique set of skills and understanding. Everyone was well tended, and the farm was maintained. Communication was great with updates and responding to my questions. If you are looking for a wonderful couple to love your pets and care for your home/farm, Declan and Katelyn are your people!

Danielle & Alan

It was our second time having Danielle and Alan sit for us and we would happily welcome them back again! Danielle is thoughtful, a great communicator, and left our home cleaner than she found it. 5 stars for sure!

Gabriella

Gabby and Josh did an amazing job looking after our 2 dogs and our home. We would recommend them to anyone looking for a sitter and would be happy to have them come back anytime.

Rhonda

Rhonda and Alan were very easy to communicate with and extra considerate of our pets needs. They asked excellent questions about the home and our 2 dogs. They were very willing to be flexible with the dates and plans since travel can sometimes throw us a curve ball. We enjoyed getting to know them a bit as they stayed 1 night with us since we had an early departure. The house was spotless when we got home!

Erin

Erin was truly amazing. ❤️❤️ We left our two cats with her during our vacation and couldn’t be happier with how they were treated. She kept in communication with us about them, sending us pictures and videos and texting updates. Our one Maine Coon doesn’t take to people very easily and will usually hide or sometimes growl at people he doesn’t know. By the end of our vacation Erin sent videos of him cuddling in bed with her! She is the cat whisperer! Our house was so clean when we got home. It was very evident she took care of things. She took great care of our yard and even made us pesto from the basil that grew while we were away. There is no better feeling than coming home and knowing your space and your fur family have been treated so well! We would have Erin back in a heartbeat!

Taylor & Joel

Taylor & Joel were great pet sitters for our dog and hamster! They were responsive and our home was in tip top shape upon our return. Would recommend!

Nicole & Alistair

Nicole and her son watched our high anxiety dog for a week in our home. They were great - super communicative, patient with our dog (who definitely warmed up to them over time), and took excellent care of our home. I wouldn’t hesitate at all to have them house sit for us again.

Elise

Lovely couple who took great care of our home, mutts & fishes, giving us peace of mind to enjoy our holiday. 
I would definitely recommend Gregg and Leslie as Zeewoi!

Francesca

We had a wonderful time taking care of Pedro and Nina at Francesca’s home!

Pedro and Nina are very lovely, well behaved and it was very easy to take care of them both. They are charming, love cuddles and be with you around the house, an awesome companionship. We already miss them… 

Francesca and Jamil were amazing too, very welcoming, communicative and always reachable to reply any questions that you may have.

The house is beautiful, super comfortable and well located, just 1 minute to supermarket, a short walk to Amstel river and everything you will possibly need, we really enjoyed our time there. 

Thank you so much for the opportunity and for welcoming us into your home, we hope to come back and have more time with our besties Pedro and Nina ! 💚

Sandra

Sandy and Paul were very welcoming and friendly, showed us around their lovely home environment and provided a thoughtfully comprehensive welcome pack of information. Little Ike was a pleasure to be with, very cool, intelligent and inclusive, and made sure we understood his code for a treat before they left. He adapted to us wonderfully and we would recommend this sit, especially for those who enjoy a water view with beautiful walking paths outside their front door :)

Jodi

I have house-sat for Jodi’s home and her two kitties twice now, about to head over for my third sit coming up soon, and I couldn’t have asked for a better home in a perfect location. Only a 10 minute walk to Venice beach, and 5 minute walk to the famous Abbott Kinney Blvd. Shakti and Doogie are great kitties and are easy to care for, Doogie has alot of energy, while Shakti enjoys sleeping on the couch all day. They both provide wonderful cuddles next to the awesome fireplace! The rooftop hangout was perfect for my lunar eclipse experience! I would absolutely recommend sitting for Jodi’s lovely, clean home! Thank you!

amy

A lovely sit in Houston. Amy's place is lovely and she is so welcoming and friendly.  Location is great too, beside a park and close to downtown. I loved taking care of Jasper and Stella, they are so loving and cute and easy to look after. I was lucky to get to spend time with Any the evening before I left and we had a great chat. I would really recommend this sit if you get the opportunity.
