We recently had Pascale stay at our home for four nights to take care of our pup, Denali. From the outset, Pascale was kind and it was evident that she genuinely cares for animals, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. However, there were a few challenges during her stay that prevent us from giving a full five-star rating. Firstly, we had some communication issues before the start of her stay regarding arrival and departure times. Despite originally saying she could take Denali out before heading to evening events on her arrival day, she later told us that she could no longer do so at the last minute. Pascale also informed us of a departure change right before we left, which left us scrambling to make alternative arrangements on short notice. Second, she lost our house keys during her time with us, necessitating getting her access to another set (fortunately, the lost set got turned into our super). Third, there was an instance where Denali was left alone for over 10 hours, despite a previous explicit discussion about the appropriate length of time away from Denali, where we had indicated 8 hours was the limit to ensure no accidents. While Pascale’s kindness and love for Denali are commendable, these issues highlighted some areas where communication and reliability could be improved. We appreciate her efforts and care for our dog, but future pet owners might want to discuss these aspects to ensure a smooth experience for everyone involved.

Sue and Nick
Nick and Sue were very hospitable and accommodating. They helped us with a range of things during our stay. The house is beautiful and Louie is great fun! 

And there are lots of pretty villages to see in the local area. Do yourself a favour and apply for this housesit!

I had the most wonderful time house pet-sitting sweet Jasper! Meeting Sophie and Pierre was an absolute delight – they were warm, friendly, and made communication a breeze throughout my stay.

The highlight of the experience was spending time by the serene lake with Jasper. Playing fetch and watching him splash around in the water brought so much good times.

I'm incredibly grateful for the opportunity to care for Jasper and enjoy such a beautiful setting. Sophie, Pierre, and Jasper made this pet-sitting experience truly pleasant, and I can't wait for the chance to do it all over again!

This sit was heaven! Brother and Billie were both angels. Their energy and love they have for each other was so adorable. The way they played tag and darted through the house made me wish I was a child again. 
Brother was super affectionate. He would lay on the couch with me during bird watch. And Billie would talk to the birds. I let them watch YouTube cat tv for a few minutes a day. They loved it! 
Missi has a beautiful home and comfortable amenities. The house is conveniently located just two blocks from the grocery store and many restaurants.
Overall a beautiful and I’d love to come back! I miss the boys already.

Barney was a true gentleman. Laid back and a pleasure to care for. Luke and Maddie's home is spacious with a quaint and comfortable feel. Luke was in contact before and during the sit.

What a pleasure and privilege we had to stay with Stéphane. The house is extremely clean, very quiet and furnished with so much taste. The neighborhood is si nice for walks with Angus and Gordie. We loved these two boys. They are so nice and funny. Really no problem with them. Their affection overwhelmed us. Less than 10 minutes walk, there are all the necessary shops. The Junction is so close to downtown Toronto. We used Uber taxis to get there, it was perfect. Stephen was super flexible and easily reachable. Many thanks to him for this comfortable stay.
