Our 2 year old fur pup, Skye, has idiopathic epilepsy. She takes three different medicines that have to be given at precise times, and she may still have an unexpected seizure. When we left for a two and a half week trip, we gave Marcie all the instructions: how to give Skye her pills and what to do if she seized. Marcie was amazing. Skye did have two seizures, and Marcie’s care was flawless. She followed her seizure protocol and recorded the details in our seizure log. Our trip was unexpectedly extended, and Marcie ensured a seamless hand-off to a new sitter. Marcie kept Skye busy (or Skye kept Marcie busy?), tossing her ball hundreds of times and making sure she got her regular walks. She also took care of our kitty, Louis, and made sure he got his outdoor condo time and plenty of cuddles. She kept us informed of his eating habits, as he has become a bit finicky lately. Her pictures and video updates showed us that our fur babies were doing great. We are so grateful to her for the care she showed them. Marcie took exceptional care of our home, including filling the outdoor fountains and pool and cleaning the pool with the automatic cleaner. She left our home spotless and organized. Even the pool robot filters were cleaned. Our garden was regularly watered, and trash/recycle cans were empty. We highly recommend Marcie and look forward to having her sit for us again in the future.

Judith
It was a real pleasure to house sit for Judith and look after Casper and Bloom. 
I can highly recommend this sit. It's close to the town centre and Casper ( the beautiful white German Shepherd ) and Bloom are both great characters and good company
It was a fun sit. 
Thank you so much for a lovely sit.

Robyn
Robyn had one of the cutest cats we have met so far. 😍 Her three kitties were easy to take care of and loved to play with us. A first they started a bit shy but quickly got accustomed to us. 
The communication with Robyn was clear and we thoroughly enjoyed sitting her place. We would highly recommend her :)

Danielle
Deux semaines exceptionnelles dans une maison très confortable, dans un environnement paisible avec un Maine Coon (Boulette) en forme et indépendant. Il est affectueux à ses moments. Danielle, la propriétaire est attentive et très gentille. Elle a été disponible lorsque nous avons eu besoin d’elle en plus de devenir une amie suite à nous avoir occupé de Boulette et de sa maison. Vous aurez que du plaisir et des bons moments lorsque vous serez chez Danielle et Boulette. Je vous conseille de découvrir et de vivre à vous aussi des beaux et bons moments prochainement :-) Danielle et Mario

Juan Carlos
Maria and Juan are such a friendly couple, very detailed with their communication and made sure I was very comfortable in their home. I love the neighborhood and all that it has to offer. And Lola! What a cutie - she is so cuddly, you can hold her with no problem, and she was on my lap all the time :). I recommend this sit to anyone and I personally would love to be back if the opportunity arises. Thank you both!
