“Gina was amazing! We were struggling to find a dog sitter while we were on our vacation in Salmon Arm. Oreo had THE BEST 24 hours with Gina and all of her dogs! He got to run around and play in the huge yard. He met so many new puppy friends! All of the humans at the house were so kind and caring with Oreo. I had piece of mind being in a different province, knowing that oreo was well taken care of. Thank you so much for accomidsting us Gina!”

“Our dogs love to spend time with Joseph and Tina. They are comfortable with the surroundings and feel completely at home. The yard is amazing and Joseph and Tina make frequent visits to the dog park to get them out and to socialize. We could not be happier with the care Charlie and Murphy receive.”
“Cassie and her family are wonderful, caring people who will take good care of your dog! She has looked after my 9 year old Dutch Shepherd and my 4 month old pup. I would definitely recommend Cassie for all doggie care.”

“Gail was excellent. Met with her beforehand to get an idea of the layout to see if my senior boy-Harley would fit in at her home. Harley loved his companionship with her two little dogs. I felt very comfortable leaving him there. It’s good knowing he has a place to go to where he’s comfortable. Gail sent me pictures and was very communicative on how he was doing while he was in her care. I highly recommend Gail.”
“Brianne was wonderful taking care of my puppy for three nights. She gave updates everyday and was able to spend one on one time with her everyday. It was Harleys first time away from me and she had a great experience! I don’t hesitate to recommend Brianne for anyone’s fur babies ❤️”

“Tamara did an excellent job of taking care of my dog. My dog is aggressive towards other dogs which can be challenging. Tamara had no problems with managing him and I am really grateful. I would definitely recommend Tamara and I know my dog would be very happy to be in her care again.”
“Chester had an awesome vacation with his new friend Paul. We were travelling from out of town so could not do a meet and greet. Paul and I met by phone and after discussing our needs I felt very confident in Paul. My main concern was how Chester would behave in someone else’s home. Paul was very relaxed and we could tell that he had Chester’s best interests at heart. Loved getting regular photos and newsy updates. I hope we have the opportunity to book Paul again.”

About: I’m a born a dog lover 🐾 How much dogs mean to us? They’re more than dogs, they’re family members. I know how difficult it can be to find a safe and caring sitter, that’s where I come in :) My schedule is quite flexible right now and I am working mostly from my computer 3 days a week 9-5 at most. I’ve been really enjoying using Rover to make a bit of extra income in the side while I help my Mom with her farm & market business venture. That being said I might not always be available when you want me :( send me a message to see if I can help you out. 🐾 I take any special instructions seriously. I will only feed them what and when you’d like. I will socialize how much or how little you want them socialized. I generally only take one dog or one family at a time to ensure the most personalized care. Special circumstances I can take 2 dogs or 2 different families pets at a time. This is a farmstead and there are other dogs that live nearby but everyone gets along and is up to date vaccinated 🐾

I have a great job that allows some flexibility. My daughter helps me care for pets as it is her passion too.

“I am a new resident of the Northern Okanagan and prior to relocating when I would have a few days away from home I had family close by who would care for my cats, Norman and Lester. As typical when it is something new - I was excited that I found Debbie, but still a bit anxious at leaving the “boys” for an extended number of days. Well, I had nothing at all to worry about and I knew everything would be great when I met with the sitter and the cats came right over for hellos and pets. The daily snaps of both cats - looking at her as though they were looking at me - and being outside - which - thank you so much - was over and beyond what I had asked for and expected. I’ve been home an hour and both cats don’t care - they’ve had their attention needs taken care of by Debbie and I guess I’ll be the favourite again once the food dish is empty! Thank you so much Debbie for being so great!”
About: Hi! My name is Natasha and I’ve taken care of animals for most of my life. I’m experienced in handling pets of all sizes and ages. Whether you have a puppy who needs a playdate or a senior cat who just needs a bit of company, I’m happy to help! I work part time and my hours are fairly flexible, so I’m available during most times of the day. I can do half an hour or hour long visits, whatever your pet needs! For drop in visits, I can travel anywhere from Vernon to Salmon Arm. I have lots of experience with cats and dogs, and I’m comfortable with exotic pets as well.
“Laura was absolutely wonderful with our dear Hannie. I highly recommend her!! She connected with Hannie right away when we met her and this continued on into the visits while we were gone. . The many Pictures told the happy story for Hannie as well as Laura’s frequent texts. Thank you sooo much Laura!”
“An absolutely fabulous cat sitter! Carly was great and I got regular updates showing that my kitty was thoroughly entertained. So happy to have met Carly and will be asking her for cat sitting during all my travels!”
“Morgan went above and beyond our expectations. She is a genuine animal lover and it is so evident. We have two demanding male cats and a senior female cat who has special needs. We came home to happy and well fed kitties - not to mention a very clean house. Morgan stayed in contact with us while we were away with lots of photos. Any concerns we had were non-existent as we realized what a responsible and caring person Morgan is. Would not hesitate to recommend her and we will definitely ask her again to pet sit.”
About: I was raised on a farm with everything from chickens to giant Kangal dogs. Animal care has been a big part of my life. Both of my own dogs I have rescued and hand fed from birth. I have experience caring for reptiles, cats, puppies, large/small dog breeds and rabbits. I’ve spent the last few years caring for Armstrong friends’ and families’ farm animals and pets and I would love to do the same for you! I am available early mornings and evenings to help care for your furry friend. I can do walking lengths depending on your dog’s energy expenditure needs. I try to stick to the exact same routine that the pet(s) are used to from their owner (ie. direction of walks and walking style). I find this makes the animal the most comfortable with me and more likely to enjoy my company.
“I was so reluctant to use Rover but then I found Shelly! Now I’m reluctant to leave this review because I don’t want her to get too busy and not be available but she deserves a glowing reference from me. Shelly, is absolutely the best and I feel so blessed to have found her…she is experienced with all their meds, loving and reliable. I highly recommend her as a caregiver. A+++ (and I don’t leave this review lightly….I am very particular when it comes to my babies )”

“I was so happy and relieved to find Gina and her family for my puppy’s care. This is a five star place . Our pup came home happy and sleepy . She socialized with the resident dogs as well as the other dogs in care . I received pictures of Gina’s son and daughter snuggling with our Molly as well as Molly playing with another Boston terrier. Such a relief to have a look at how Molly’s day was going. Thank you Gina and family , you are phenomenal !!!”

“Marcella was fantastic! She took my little dog on short notice and I felt comfortable with her right away. Her home is beautiful, welcoming, and clearly set up with dogs in mind. Her dog Winston is incredibly sweet and friendly, and was great with my little guy from the moment they met. It’s obvious she genuinely loves dogs and has lots of experience with them. I wouldn’t hesitate to leave my pup with her again and will definitely be using her services in the future.”
“Tamara was amazing with our standard poodle! We were in town skiing for the day and dropped Hanna off for some fun while we hit the mountain. Will definitely be bringing Hanna back next time we are in Revelstoke and need daycare.”
About: I am a pet owner and I foster for a rescue local to the Shuswap area. I specialize in large breed dogs however I love all animals regardless of breed or size. Being local to the Shuswap I know where a lot of our local walking trails are and different neighborhood routes are and can walk according to what your fur baby needs. I work full time in the community and very close to my house, so even when I am not home I am able to run home and let the dogs out for potty breaks or other needs. Because I am a foster for our local animal rescue if an animal is to come into our home I need to guarantee that they are up to date on vaccinations and fixed. This is to protect any fosters and your furry friend. Otherwise I will be happy to care for your animals in other environments
