Retired Canadian couple past 5 years. Currently residents of Panamá and have been full time pet sitters in both Panamá & Mexico.

favoriteWhy we love house sitting

Coming to Panamá was not to be pet sitters, just came our way. We got so many requests from clients friends it ballooned to full time. Not only do we love all the animals but gives us a great opportunity to explore the different areas. We get our pet fixes since we always were pet owners ourselves.

We were home owners in the Valley with a waterfront home on the Madawaska River. We have experience with off grid living, solar, hot tubs, and pools. Kevin grew up north of Toronto on a farm. He was a cattle and pig farmer with many pets and chickens. We have always had dogs and or cats while in Canada. With Kevin’s background in HVAC he’s able to troubleshoot/fix most things that pop up.

Our life in Panamá has been extremely busy and we have a dedicated group of clients that book us yearly. We are very comfortable dealing with senior/palliative pets. We had a blind Samoyed in Canada that required twice daily insulin shots. Giving meds and caring for sick animals is not an issue for us at all.
