About: My dog/cat are my best friends so I know just how important it is to make sure they get the best care while you’re not around. I don’t have a routine job. I work out of town so when I’m home, I’m home. I take my dog for multiple walks a day, and we would love to have your dog join us I have a fenced in back yard, and my dog is very friendly. You’re dogs safety and comfort is a priority. I allow dogs on my furniture/bed.

“Leanne is highly trustworthy and professional. My cat had a great time with her for two weeks. There was a minor emergency with my cat while I was abroad, and I felt completely helpless, but Leanne handled the situation very well. I can't thank her enough for that. I was worried about leaving my kitty alone for so long, but Leanne gave me a total peace of mind. I highly recommend her!”

About: For as long as I can remember, animals of all kinds have been drawn to me, and me to them. I grew up with cats, and to me, they were more like siblings than pets. My first cat Pugly tucked me into my crib each night, protecting me from thunderstorms, and keeping my secrets. I've never known a life without cats! Keeping purrs rolling, litter tidy, and water fresh are how I've been expressing love for my whiskered friends since I was a kid. I've had the pleasure of tending to cats of all ages and dispositions and know when to give them space, play, or cuddles. I'm also experienced with administering oral medications, including to cats with strong temperaments! I adore cats of all personalities, from cuddly lap cats to independent observers. I'd love the opportunity to care for your "royal roommate" and make a new feline friend!

About: Hey there! I'm Ashling - originally from the UK but have been living in BC since Feb 2023. I have looked after many wonderful animals - from goats, chickens and turtles, big dogs, small dogs, old cats and kittens! I love animals and believe they are a truly important member of the family. Very happy and comfortable with sitting, walking, and/or running your animals 😊 Look forward to meeting you! I work from home and my schedule is super flexible, so have lots of time during the day to get out and about or sit with your pets. I love running so if you've specific request for this then do let me know and I'd be happy to run your dog too. No two animals are the same and so I like to know a little about your pets personality to make sure they are comfortable and happy.

About: I have had 10+ years of golden retriever and shih-tzu owning. My sister has 3 Bernese mountain dogs and two cats so I’m comfortable with all sizes and different breeds. Out of work until it starts full time in November! Have plenty of friends with dogs if your guys love pet socialization, but currently just join friends on dog walks. I do not do home boarding!! I live with my fiancé and his brothers, who are allergic. My yard is not fenced. I’m willing to make your dog feel welcome and loved wherever they are.

“Abra responded very quickly and was able to accommodate without much notice. Very professional and polite! We will be utilizing her services again.”

“Our dog had a great time with Courtney! She showed up at the scheduled time, gave us an update and provided photos. She was super easy to communicate with and made the process easy. Would book again, thanks Courtney!”

“This was my first experience with Sue. She is very responsive to messages and answered all my questions prior to booking. My terriers had a great 1 hour walk with her and received awesome photos to show for it! They looked thrilled!!!! Will definitely book her services again!”

“Kalie is absolutely incredible with our pups!! Everytime we come home from work they’re in the best mood. Very tough because our puppies our sisters and we’ve found that typically makes it harder to deal. But she has no issues and they respond so well to her. Highly recommend her for any walks you may need!!”

About: For as long as I can remember, animals of all kinds have been drawn to me, and me to them. Though I grew up in a household of cats, I had the pleasure of being "raised" part-time by a German Shepard named Blackjack who rescued my Grammy. And what can I say? I adore doggos! I'm the type of person that will adjust my walking route to go to work so that I have more opportunity to see dogs (and their humans too, I suppose) on my commute. I've had the pleasure of tending to pups of all shapes and sizes, from my fur niece Willow the Wiener Dog, to my very first overnight sit with Juno the Husky. I love them all! I'm comfortable with older dogs and any additional medical support they may need, as well pups in training who might need a bit more guidance with getting to know the lay of the land. I truly love each animal I care for as if they are a best friend. I would love the opportunity to hang with your pup and make a new bestie! I'm currently running my own wellness business, primarily online at the moment, so I have plenty of space and time to care for your furry friend. I have been house and pet sitting across Canada and New Zealand since 2018 and treating any host homes as I would my own. If I can help out with any improvements while I stay, it is always my pleasure. Things like sharpening dull kitchen knives, weeding the flower bed you've been meaning to get to for weeks, deep cleaning the "pet tub", and of course nurturing your fur babies.

“Helen was wonderful was with my pup and he came back super happy and tired. She provided the cutest pictures and information about the walk once returned. I’d definitely recommend!”

About: Helping your pets living their best life! I’m experienced with big size dogs, elder animals, giving medication if needed. I have my pet first aid course. But most of all, I’m a pet sitter that cares a lot about your pet’s well being and will adapt to all level of energy! I work evening shifts at Island Lake Lodge so my calendar is very flexible for walking your dog at mid day during the work days. For pet sitting, this season I’ll be working 8h/day except Wednesdays & Thursdays so I won’t be able to be full time with your pet at home. I walk dogs & do pet sitting within Fernie only. Always one dog at a time (or multiple dogs if they are from the same household). I also take care of cats & other pets and will give them all the love they deserve!

“Ashling is very responsive, reliable, and flexible. I will be using her services again in the future!”

“Haylee was fantastic! Great and easy communication and I came home to a super happy and tired pup. Would absolutely recommend Haylee and hope to have her take Una out again!”

About: What sets me apart is that I genuinely love and understand cats. I’m a cat owner myself, so I know how important it is to have someone reliable, gentle, and attentive checking in on your pets while you’re away. I offer cat-focused drop-in visits where I can feed them, refresh their water, clean/scoop litter, give them playtime, cuddles if they want them, and send photo updates so you know they’re safe and comfortable. I’m especially good with cats who are shy, cautious, or need someone patient who won’t overwhelm them. I understand that every cat has their own personality, so I let them warm up at their own pace while still making sure they’re cared for properly. I’m also happy to follow detailed instructions for feeding routines, litter care, house rules, and any little habits that make your cat feel secure. My goal is to make your cat feel calm, cared for, and loved while giving you peace of mind that everything at home is being looked after. My main experience and comfort is with cats, but I’m also happy to help with calm, friendly dogs for drop-in visits, feeding, water refreshes, potty breaks, and short leash walks. Because I’m still building my dog-care experience, I only accept dogs who are gentle, leash-trained, and non-reactive. I always do a meet-and-greet first so I can make sure it’s the right fit for both me and your pet. I work full-time, but I’m available for drop visits before 8:30AM & between 12 and 1 PM & after 4:30 PM during the week and available most weekends and stats. I offer drop in visits at your home. This way, your pet does not need to feel the stress of being in a new environment.
