“Raye was our first pet-sitter ever and I couldn't be happier with the service provided. She met my dog prior to the booking, introducing my dog to hers and making sure they got along - which made me feel more confident that it was a good fit. Throughout the stay, Raye keep me posted about how things went and I could see that my dog was having a blast! After picking her up, she was so tired from all the play and super calm the day after she was back home. Thank you very much, Raye!”

“Dominique was great right from our meet and greet!! Both me and my pup Rupert felt comfortable with her from the start. It was my first time boarding Rupert and I was a little nervous, but Dominique left me with no concerns about having him stay with her. She was attentive to the instructions I left about Ruperts care, and for a somewhat nervous dog he sure seemed comfortable with her! I would definitely recommend Dominique to help you meet your pups needs!”

“Georgia was lovely, came over before we needed to catsit to go over details, did exactly what she said she would. Tried to fuss out cat but our cat wasn't having any of it. Even posted pictures during her visits”


“Outstanding! Dominique is an excellent communicator and did an amazing job with our kitties. The updates provided after visits were most reassuring, the pictures and feedback beyond expectations. She was more than happy to follow any and all directions for our kittie’s care. I did not hesitate to book Dominique again for a future pet sitting need.”

About: We had a familydog as a kid. When I met my husband I also got to be part of his dog's life, we were lucky enough to have her until she was almost 17. I am working on training my first search dog. We brought home a 2nd dog in April, a puppy from Little Mittens Animal Rescue. We also have a very dog-tolerant cat from Little Mittens. I work full time, but seasonally. I'm looking to see how this works and how I enjoy it and am fitting it into my schedule on days off, for now. I have a fenced in yard and 2 dog runs set up so that my dogs are safe when I am not home. I have my vehicles set up with dog crates so tgat animals are contained and safe while travelling with me. I will talk to you and learn about your pet and their needs so that I can give your pet the beat care.
“I was traveling on vacation and had Chloe watch Ava for me during my stay at Whistler Village. I was concerned about Ava because she is an extremely shy dog, we’re in a new place, and we recently lost her companion dog buddy. I was very surprised to see Ava take to Chloe almost immediately. Ava in the past has sometimes sulked in her kennel or curled up in the corner and is not interactive. Chloe managed to take Ava out on walks several times and even sent some photos of them cuddling on the couch. I can’t say enough good things about Chloe. She was flexible and very attentive to our special needs. Absolutely five gold stars.”

“Raye came over to meet us and everyone was put ar ease with my senior cat. I received daily updates and photos of my Leona who was very content. Rae was very caring and kept my place neat and tidy with a few welcoming touches much appreciated and a happy and well cared for cat. I would highly recommend Rae.”

About: I know cats thrive on comfort, routine, and trust. That’s why I take time to get to know your cat’s personality and preferences — whether that means playtime, quiet companionship, or sticking to their exact feeding and care schedule. My goal is to keep their routine consistent so they feel safe and stress-free while you’re away. I always prioritize quality time, so your cat gets not just reliable care, but a caring friend who understands them.
About: I grew up with animals and have always loved having them around - I am an empathetic person who is very sensitive to animals needs. They bring great joy into our lives and I believe in return we owe them the best care possible. I work from home with a very flexible schedule, so I can work around your animals needs, give them as much exercise as needed, and be with them so they don't feel as stressed out being separated from you. I have an "adventure mobile" I am not afraid to get dirty and love taking dogs out for hikes and river adventures if they are up for that.
About: I grew up on a ranch and have been around animals my whole life. I absolutely adore all animals, but especially dogs and cats, and love to get in my cuddles and animal lovin’ in whenever I can! I have experience with all different types of animals, and will love, care and respect all pets as if they were my very own. I love all breeds of dogs, I do not discriminate against any particular breed, I just ask that if there is anything I should know about your pet, to know ahead of time so there are no surprises. I have 2 cats and a King German Shepherd puppy of my own :) Sirah, Tikka and Thor! I am a full time server, so my schedule does vary day to day- however I do know it about 2 weeks in advance and am able to work around it fairly easily. I have a huge fenced yard, which is great for playing and zoomies. In your home, I will accommodate to what you have to offer and what your fur baby is used to.
About: Lifelong pet owner and animal lover with years of experience as a pet sitter and dog walker. I grew up with cats and dogs my entire life and have learned how to take care and train kittens and puppies when I was child. I provide safe, and nurturing care for a wide range of animals. I am friendly and trustworthy, putting pets and their people at ease with reliable, conscientious care. I also have experience fostering with twin meadows animal rescue in fernie. I am currently unemployed as my winter season has finished at Islake Lake Lodge and at the ski hill. I have full-time availability to take care of your pet. Overnight stay, early mornings into the evenings.. I am available! :) I insure that they are comfortable with me right away, and build a trustworthy relationship. I am skilled at providing companionship and vigorous walks to pets. I also maintain a well organized daily schedule. I provide in-home pet sitting and pet care services, including workday check-ins and feedings, litterbox, cage, and kennel cleaning, overnight care, and long-term vacation care.
About: Having spent my whole life around dogs, from German Shepherds to Yorkshire Terriers, Working dogs to pets I feel I have a great understanding of how to interact with a vast variety of breeds, even the particularly headstrong ones! Working previously in an environment that required me to learn a lot about nutrition, training, general health and collar and harness fitting I feel I was able to develop skills in pet management and learn how to create and nurture bonds with new pet friends. Getting to know pet owners that were brand new to the life that having a dog allows right through to those that had been doing it for years and just wanted a little advice was also super beneficial in learning how to adapt different methods that would work for both owner and pet to create the happiest of environments. With regards to my own experience in pet care I have learnt how to administer medication for diabetes and other ailments whether that be through injectable’s or oral medication and am comfortable in ensuring this is done correctly and on time. Working late afternoon shift work, I have the majority of my mornings free along with a couple of set days and would love to spend this time engaging with different animals and providing a service for anyone who might need it! I am very comfortable around both small and large breeds of dog and am happy to follow instructions on how you would best like them to be cared for within your home whether that be specific restrictions around the home or set meal/ medication times.

“Raye was fantastic. Extremely communicate both in the booking process and while she was watching our dog. Our puppy came home happy and very tired from a fun day of playing in the snow. Will definitely call Raye when we’re back in Golden next.”

“Lauren and Lukas were so great!! They were able to watch Nellie last minute and answered my request almost immediately! They were flexible with timing, kept in contact, and sent me photos all throughout the day. Nellie definitely had a full day of zooming around their yard haha and was sound asleep when we picked her up. I would highly recommend them :)”
