Amazing! This was my first time leaving Lucca with a pet sitter and so I was fairly nervous. Haley and Mark were amazing. Lucca needs at least 3 or so good walks/runs each week to be at his best and Haley and Mark delivered! I received regular updates with pictures and Lucca looked so happy. I also worried that Lucca could come home with some undesirable new behaviour but Haley and Mark were respectful of the rules we have for him and Lucca came back to us just as we left him. Haley and Mark are great. I highly recommend them and I will certainly consider them.firat if I need a dog sitter again.

Marcy was able to look after Kilo, unexpected, and on extremely short notice for us and kept us informed as to how Kilo was doing while we were away. The second time in a month and Kilo was well cared for. We would highly recommend Marcy.

Amazing, wonderful care for our 11 week old puppy. She was safe and loved, well taken care of. Lindsey took her on walks, frequent potty breaks and sent several updates with photos. A very good option for doggie care, I’ll use her and her sweet family again.

This is our very first Rover experience. Dorothy was warm and welcoming. Her response time was impeccable. Drop off was smooth and pick up was swift. We needed that to make good time for our ferry reso. Our dog was so calm at pick up. We are glad we picked Dorothy. Thank you Dorothy.

This was our first experience with leaving our dog in someone else’s care. Barb was fantastic! Great communication before and during the dog boarding in her home. I appreciated the time she took to get to know our dog even before the event, in asking us about Bear, about her routine, feeding, bathroom and the commands or words Bear is used to. Barb kept us up to date on their adventures, sent us pictures from the walks in the park. We felt comfortable with leaving Bear in her care from the first contact, phone call and the actual first meeting. I knew Bear would have a great time at Barbs place. We will definitely book with Barb again and highly recommend her. Bear had a great time!

About: I have always grown up with dogs and animals around me, I love to go on hikes and to the ocean with my furry friends to keep me company. I usually have duties such as, feeding the animal, grooming, bathing, and giving attention! I’m currently working full time but can do night visits and come back home on my break during the day, whatever is comfortable with you! I like to go out with the animals when they are doing there business to make sure they aren’t getting into trouble, or walking them around then Neighbour hood.

Chelsea was so accommodating and super responsive with our same day request to have our dog for 2 nights over a long weekend (our other sitter had to cancel due to a sudden family emergency). Our dog Bailey was happy at drop off and pickup, and Chelsea was amazing in coming through for us. Bailey was in great hands with Chelsea and well taken care of and loved during her stay. Would definitely recommend and book again if we need a dog sitter in Nanaimo!

Amy has been lovely to connect with. My dog is quite introverted and I was a bit nervous at first but Amy was able to put things at ease. My dog connected with her dogs quite well and it was lovely to see how well they’ve connected. I’ll be asking Amy for her help with dog day care and boarding more this summer for sure. If you’re considering having Amy help your dog, I think your dog would be in good hands.

Joanne was excellent with our pretty active border collie/lab Lucy. Our first meeting inspired trust and confidence that we were leaving our family member in good hands, and Joanne clearly displays the compassion and understanding anyone would want to see in the person taking care of their dog. Lucy came back to us tired from all the fun she had, and anytime we need dog-sitting in the Nanaimo area we know where to take her. Thanks Joanne!

Germán is an outstanding pet sitter who I've known for years. Their commitment to the safety and well-being of animals is unmatched. They create a nurturing environment where pets thrive, and their dedication to building trust with both pets and their owners is remarkable. I wholeheartedly recommend Germán to anyone in need of a loving and responsible pet care.

Did not expect my feral rescue to be comfortable in her first time away from home, but apparently she was quite calm and easy to look after. Thanks Kim.
