What can we say?  You are fantastic and I doubt we will ever find anyone quite like you to look after our fur kids.
Thank you so much for everything - we've always known our dogs were well looked after with you. Thank you for living
through Bobby's 'issues' with us. He was a rather special individual (dog) and knowing you understood him was great for us.
We will keep in touch and let you know how the dogs are doing!  If you ever come to England please look us up!!!
We will miss you!!

Rocky has been running my dog Murphy for about 6 years now. Murphy and Rocky's dog Brutus (BaBa) are like brothers. Rock
has taken all our boys/girls under his wing and truly is their shepherd when on the trails. He has a huge list of locations he
takes the dogs to which personally I like. Variety is good for dogs.

He has treated Murphy like his own. He has also double walked and fed Murphy when we can't make it home and also
house/dog sat many times for us over the years while on holidays and we are truly grateful for that.

You will be hard pressed to find a more educated and caring walker. Bottom line....Rocky is part of our clan!!!
Best Regards,
Brian K. (E: bknight@cosella-dorken.com)

We just got back from a 2 week vacation & had Carole watch our fur babies - Tia our darling little dog - Midnight our
lovable cat - and our fish aquarium - I have no words to commend Carole on a job well done!! - not only is Wags 2 Whiskers
reliable, affordable but your fur babies are not just taken care of they are tenderly loved by Carole.  We think Tia is
missing her today.  Carole emailed us regularly while we were away making our holiday that much more enjoyable. Rocky
went out of his way to assist Carole when Tia would not go to the bathroom, Rocky also took time out of his day to look at
our vacuum cleaner as Carole was ensuring our place was spotless upon our return.  We have hired other pet sitters in the
past & our thoughts are that Wags 2 Whiskers is the best!!  If you have a upcoming holiday and worried about the care of
your fur babies Wags 2 Whiskers is highly recommended by both Russell & me.

we're away....as well as repairing our kitchen cabinet door :-) !!  We sure appreciate you.

Overnight Pet Sitting Review:
Carole did a fantastic job looking after my 7 year old Boxer Ronin, while I traveled for work.
Ronin usually gets a little depressed when I am away, doesn't eat and actually mopes. He also does not play well with other
dogs. They came into my home and connected with Ronin right away; being able to keep Ronin in his own environment was a
huge bonus. She did a great job caring for him and when I got home from my trip Ronin was a relaxed and a happy puppy! You
rock guys, it was obvious that my dog loved and trusted you, which made leaving for me easier.
:-) Thank you again!!

I highly recommend W2W as a cat and live-in house sitter.  The first time Carole came to stay at my home my cat was
sick.  She emailed me with updates on my cat's progress and her comments indicated her insight into the kitty's personality
and needs.  I returned home to a cat who was gaining health!  I am grateful for the caring, skilled, and trustworthy
services that they provided and will certainly call upon them again.

Thanks for all you do for my gorgeous boy. I see how excited he gets when you come to the door. That tells me what a
great job you're doing.  Thanks again Rocky.

Thanks for taking care of Mr. Smudge. He was so excited & vocal when we got home, he was more like a dog than a cat. He
certainly wasn't stressed in any way as when someone stayed here last (wrong person I think - young and boisterous). Hope
he remembers you next time! I'm thinking the lonliness is better than the stress.
Thanks again, Jane

Zoey is my new 1 year old rescue dog that didn't receive proper training or socialization as a puppy. Walking Zoey has
always been quite a challenge in the past as she tends to pull really hard and can become rough with other dogs when playing.
Within 1 month of using Wags 2 Whiskers Pet Services, Zoey's manners and behavior while walking and playing improved
exponentially. I also noticed how excited she gets when she knows she is going out for a walk/run with all of her new
friends.. 5 other dogs.. I definitely recommend Wags 2 Whiskers to anyone that is looking for an energetic dog walker or
just some extra socialization for their furry family member :)

I just wanted to say THANKS for looking after our cat Luckie for me last weekend. You guys are so friendly and organized
and I think Luckie must have been happy because she showed absolutely no stress at all.

We feel very lucky to have found Rocky to walk our dog Bobby. We work long days and knowing Rocky will be taking Bobby
out for a walk each day gives us great peace of mind.  The service we have received has been professional and caring, we
love reading where Bobby has been each day.  We would say that Rocky gos above & beyond what is expected of him and our
dog seems very happy!!

We are so sad about the passing of Rocky's favorite beloved dog....Bobby. He is missed so much.
What a precious dog he was. Congrats on your new puppy this Christmas...can't wait to see him/her.

September 28, 2009 - THANK YOU Rocky and all, for your very professional and caring way you looked after our 3 cats
(and thanks also for tolerating our 1-1/2 hour interview!) We sure appreciated the TIME you spent with our Emily, Sammy
and Bootsie. For anyone looking for reliable, gentle and loving cat sitter, Wags 2 Whiskers Pet Sitting & Dog Walking is
GREAT!  They took the time to listen to what we wanted, were very gentle with our cats, and were meticulous in doing the
twice daily feeding and playing with them. Our cats were relaxed and totally at ease when we arrived back from vacation -
that's a good sign!  Thanks again Carole & Rocky.

Three weeks after we brought home our new 8 week old puppy Mack,I started a new job that required me to work at an
office. I worried that Mack would not get the exercise he needed; a large husky rottweiler mix, he needed a vigorous
workout every day to remain calm and balanced. The best decision I ever made was to hire Wags 2 Whiskers to take Mack
on his daily walk.  Rocky takes him on long and varied walks every day, including swimming at the river which is Mack's
favourite - every day is a new adventure!  Both Rocky have felt like partners in raising our dog, showing genuine interest in
his health and well-being.I trust and rely on them completely and am eternally grateful for their help raising a wonderful
dog.
Sincerely,
Cher Bond

I want to recommend Wags 2 Whiskers Pet Sitting to anyone looking for a dog walker or for anyone that needs a place for
their dog to stay while they are away. They recently took my dog for the weekend while I was on vacation. It was last
minute but they were willing to take him in on short notice and the whole process was super easy and hastle-free. Carole
was nice enough to email me with updates & photo's so I knew how he was doing! When I picked him up it was obvious that he
was not only well exercised but given lots of love and attention as well.
I will definitely use Wags 2 Whiskers Pet Services again!

Marley & I wanted to thank you both for all your great care. It meant so much to know that my fur baby was so safe and
happy in your care. If I could, I’d take you to the North Shore with us!

I am a frequent traveler and have a one-year-old Dachshund named Doolittle. Most of the time it is unfeasible for me to
take my dog when I travel; so him & I have a fair amount of experience with sitters , Some are good and some are bad. I
can tell you that Wags 2 Whiskers are one of the best I've ever used. The amount of attention given to my dog was
unparalleled. When I picked him up, my usually hyper dog was exhausted, a hard feat to accomplish!  Additionally, I began to
notice that Doolittle was much better at following my commands. Because of the high level of attention given to my dog, I
would strongly recommend using Wags 2 Whiskers.
I know I plan to use their services again. If you have any questions pls. contact me at jba19@sfu.ca

My boyfriend and I started working long days and were worried about leaving our dogs at home for 10 hours a day with no
company. I found Rocky and Carole's website and emailed asking about mid day potty breaks. They came to meet Tanner and
Ty on a Friday and they started coming for visits 5 days a week the very next Monday. They took amazing care of our
boys. Tanner and Ty were always so happy when we got home, it's like they had so much to tell us!  So if you have long
work days I highly recommend Rocky and Carole to come spend some time with your pooch(es), it makes all the difference in
the world.  Thanks for caring for our boys you
guys.

Just a note to say that I highly recommend Wags 2 Whiskers who took good care of Roxie while I was away on holidays for
a few weeks. I had total peace of mind as they were detailed in taking care of my house as well. I used to take Roxie to a
dog boarding place but I never felt good about leaving her there as she gets extreme separation anxiety but she was calm
and happy when I got home.
Thanks Carole!
Steve A./Roxie




In loving memory of our dear Bobby who will always have a very special place
in Rocky's heart.
We are so sad at the passing of our dear friend and you will always be missed
dear Bobby.
