“Anothai and Mersad went above and beyond to care for our dog. We had multiple photo and video updates and we were so at ease knowing our dog had such a loving home while we were away. Thank you both again for everything! Would 100% recommend to anyone looking for a great home away from home for their Pup!”
“She was absolutely amazing! She kept me updated throughout Vito’s stay with regular messages, photos, and videos, which gave me so much peace of mind. It was clear that she genuinely cared about him, and he had such a great time playing with her sweet dog. He came home happy, relaxed, and well cared for. I would definitely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter!”
“Amy is a fabulous sitter! She keeps us updated all the time with photos and notes. She is flexible which has been so helpful with picking up and dropping off our dog.”
“We couldn’t be happier with the care Jeanine provided for our dog, Benji. She was available on very short notice, which already meant a lot to us—but what truly stood out was how welcoming, loving, and attentive she was from the start. Jeanine is incredibly caring and clearly very experienced with dogs. Benji felt comfortable right away, and that gave my wife and me complete peace of mind. It’s honestly the best dog care experience we’ve had. We will definitely be reaching out to her again on a regular basis, especially whenever we travel. Highly recommend!”
“Excellent experience! Our dog Melody was super comfortable here and seemed to have had the best time! Thank you for caring for her like we do!! Will most definitely book with Tessa again.”
“Viktorria was able to take Maggie for us on really short notice! She sent many pictures and videos of her on walks and cuddling on the couch. Gave us peace of mind while we were away for 3 nights. Thanks so much for looking after Maggie for us!”
“Kelene cared for our 9 year old Sheltie and did an amazing job with good communication and pictures while we were away! Highly recommended and will contact her for pooch care in the future!”
“10⭐️!! Luke had such a great time on his vacation — I swear he didn’t want to come home! Jaeb was great with sharing daily photos of Luke’s stay, brushed him, took him for walk, played inside and out in the yard, and cared for him when he was nervous during the thunderstorm that hit. Immediately after meeting Jaeb we knew Luke was going to be in good hands, and we wouldn’t worry one bit while we were away. We will 100% be using Jaeb again in the future.”
“Susanna and Claude were great. I have 2 very senior dogs and they took them for leasurely strolls at their pace and sent me lots of pic updates. They even had a family emergency and still made sure that the doggos were taken care of. Definitely recommended!”
“Gabrielle is sooo great and provides great warmth - in both her personality and home - for watching Rupert. Our boy had so much fun also with his good friend Juniper. On this first beautiful dat of Spring in the Okanagan, it looked like Rupert also enjoyed soaking up the sun on the balcony. Thank you so much, Gabrielle, for looking after Rupert and the great photos. Much appreciated!!”
“Carla was exceptional with our little boy, TJ. We received daily updates and happy, relaxing puppy pictures. Very confident and pleased to have Carla as our dog sitter, and we would not hesitate to call on Carla again, for sure!”
“Suzanne took very good care of our senior dog, Pepper. She kept us updated with how he was doing over the weekend. She is a very nice person and I would recommend her to anyone who needs someone to take good care of their dog!”
About: I am a responsible and well-experienced pet caregiver who would treat your fur baby like they were my own. I have had animals in my life since childhood, including cats, dogs, birds, reptiles, horses, chickens, ducks, rodents...you name it, I have probably had it! For dogs, I am available for walks, hikes, in-home sitting, overnight boarding, training, feeding, medication administration, belly rubs, nail trims, and playing fetch and/or other games for stimulation and enrichment. I am confident with all sizes and breeds of dogs. For cats, I am available for drop-in visits, in-home sitting, overnight boarding, feeding, administering medications, nail trims, and providing snuggles. I will also care for reptiles, birds & farm animals of all kinds (just not in my home of course, haha). Most recently I had a cat and a dog, both of whom I said goodbye to earlier in 2026 - so now I looking to fulfill my love for animals by caring for others' babies. Please reach out if you think it may be a good fit! I work from home and have a flexible schedule, so I am easily able to schedule my day around your pet's needs. I am also easily able to bring my work with me, so I can house-sit / pet-sit at your home if that is the preference. There is a beautiful pond and park with walking trails within 200m of my home. I have an outdoor enclosed patio to provide a safe outdoor space for animals (and me!). I also live within walking distance to Knox Mountain where I frequently go for longer hikes (5-10km). I work from home and am a home-body, so your pet would almost always have company, with minimal time alone. I am willing to follow your pet's home routine as closely as possible, and am able to crate your pet when I do leave them alone, if that is your preference.
“Darcy was an amazing dog sitter. Ollie our 10 lbs. Multipoo was so happy when we picked him up. Darcy sent photos and updates throughout his stay. We would definitely use Darcy again!”
“Yolanda, you were amazing babysitter for Rex. I appreciate you putting Rex first while you were looking after him. You were a great dog sitter. Dealing with you Yolanda was incredible experience, you were kind, very Understanding, accepting to all my demands. It was pleasure dealing with you.”
“Cielo was a fabulous a sitter for our little guy. She kept us posted with pictures! She lives close to our place and it was nice to see he had another pal to chill with. Last minute accommodation was a delightful surprise. Thanks Cielo!”
“We had a fantastic experience with the Jeremy! He did a great job giving our dog enough exercise to keep him happy. We also appreciated how well they managed his medications, making sure everything was given on time and correctly. Throughout our time away, they kept us updated with plenty of photos and messages, which really put us at ease. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a trustworthy and attentive dog sitter!”
“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.”

“It's so reassuring to have someone look after your pet and know that they are in the best hands while you are away. What more could you ask for! Thank you Paige for a very professional service and for looking after our boy so well. We're incredibly grateful 😀”
“Kate was absolutely amazing, she sent us multiple pictures each day with a nice write up. My cat is a messy eater and she went of her way to clean up all the cat food that was split. I felt very confident that my cat was in good hands. I will be booking with Kate again when we go away.”
“Any time I need to leave town, I choose Patricia now. She is EXACTLY who you want taking care of your fur babies. She provides photo updates, is extremely reliable, and friendly - Not to mention my Charlie (who is scared of lots of folks) loves her too!”
“Daria is very personable and our pets took to her without issue. We received daily updates and pics (thank you!). We will be recommending Daria to friends and colleagues and will definitely utilize her services for our pet care again.”
“Michaela was amazing with my 2 cats! I was gone for a week and she sent plenty of photos and made sure I had enough updates. My one cat is very shy to new people but he loved her right away which is such a good sign. She took amazing care of the kitties and I will definitely be booking her again!”
“Trinity was wonderful to have looking after our cats! She made the effort for an initial visit to meet them which made us very comfortable. We received pictures of them out and about, which was so nice to see! She messaged with any questions and kept us up to date on their eating as they require a little more attention than most. Can’t wait to hire her again!”
About: I appreciate how intelligent cats are and how they have a mind of their own and follow their own rules. I have experience taking cats on walks around vehicles on leash. I have worked with cats behaviours (ignoring undesired behaviours and helping reward positive ones etc) to gradually help them learn to sit, go on walks, scratch posts etc.
“Angela took fantastic care of our two cats, she even brought different toys to play with them, she really truly cares about animals, and is very responsible and kind person! We are very grateful for her visits.”
“Viktoriia is an awesome dog walker. She responds quickly to our requests. She is friendly, committed, timely and most importantly our dog really looks forward to her arrival and walks. Thanks Viktoriia.”
“Toni was great for x2 daily weekend drop/ins for my 2 cats. My shy 9month old kitten warmed up to her by the second visit. Easy to communicate with and took care of both cats feeding, playtime and litter box cleaning. Would recommend and hire again. Thanks Toni!”
“I can't say enough about the GREAT care Anna gave my cat!!! she was given so much love and attention i thought she must have rubbed herself in Catnip! LOL she was healthy but not so happy to be home with this old lady (me). she was with a younger women that gave her all the playtime she needed. she's very understanding and kind., i HIGHLY recommend Anna!! i wish i could share all the pictures she took on the "daily" which also made me a little jealous. LOL THANK YOU ANNA!!”
About: I have had cats my entire life, at one point, I had three of my own! I am well experienced and confident in all things cats - feeding them, playing, teaching them tricks (I had a cat who played fetch), cleaning litter boxes, administering medications, giving snuggles (on their terms of course), having conversations, providing nail trims... I'm a bit of a crazy cat lady, I must admit. Your kitty will be safe with me.
“I’ve had Yolanda do two drop-in visits in my home for my two pups (16 month old labradoodles) and she did a great job. She took them for a little stretch break and sent pics during the visit, etc. Both pups were calm when I got home and she had no problem with their little routine. Glad I called her and will have her back to hang out with my pups again!”
About: *****Please read all the way to the end before messaging me****** I have over 14 years of combined experience in pet and house sitting. My dog passed away recently, so please be patient with me: ****Dogs 5 years old and up, and Senior dogs preferred***** I want to be very clear that I am a dog sitter not a trainer. I do not watch dogs who are not fully house trained, have major separation anxiety, stress accidents, don't sleep through the night, who are in the teething/chewing phase, or have been aggressive and bitten dogs or people in the past. Trainers do exist out there, they charge a lot more money, and I am not one of them. If you have never left your dog with a stranger before, I am not your sitter***** Just because they behave well at home or at Grandma's house doesn't mean they won't be anxious at a new sitters house. What I do provide is the following: My main services involve providing food and water, brushing, taking pets to vet appointments, administering medicine, taking dogs out for a walk, and providing companionship. I only accept 1 or 2 dogs at a time, so that I can give great care! I often go for hikes and will bring the able dogs with me. (Please have dogs treated against fleas and ticks), and I also take those who are able to the dog parks. For senior dogs who prefer to be walked shorter distances, I bring them on a leash around the block. Prior to each dog sit, I always like to receive a full brief from the owners with a specific focus on the pet behavior and requirements. While on duty, I regularly take photos and videos of your dog(s) and share them upon request. You deserve a holiday, and your pet also, and I love to spoil them! Please bring your fur baby over clean with trimmed nails, a crate that is a proper size for your dog, also please wash their bed cover before coming over. I have had a fair few clients that bring their pet to me dirty, matted, and their bed is not clean, and as much as I love them I don't want dirty beds and dogs in my home. Thank-you for understanding. I am working full time from home so I will have lots of time to play and walk you dog that I board! I am home 7 days a week currently. Please respect my work schedule and appointments do vary, so meet and greets may also need to vary. I have a fenced yard in a townhouse downtown in Kelowna. I care for them by feeding and walking them twice a day. I have lots of flexibility in my schedule to attend to dogs needs. I require that all dogs are well groomed and flea and tick treated before staying at my place for the safety of my home, and other dogs. I do occasionally have to step out, so if your dog has major separation anxiety and barks a lot then I am not the right fit. Please read the rover guarantee in full. If your dog bites any other dog in my care and I have to take them to the vet then I will hold you responsible for the first $250 dollars rover does not cover. You will also be responsible for the claims process. If you are not a responsible pet parent, and willing and able to take responsibility for any damage your dog causes,please do not book with me. I take them out on walks and give them lots of cuddles. I prefer dogs who are 5 years old and older. Seniors are my favourite since I had a senior rescue for a long time. I have a fully fenced yard and my house is dog proofed. All food and treats are kept out of reach, and I make safety a priority.

“Emilie was amazing. I required a safe, cool place to leave Ranger for an hour everyday for the week, and Emilie's condo was absolutely perfect for that! The fact that she worked from home and was able to be flexible with pickup and drop-off times was amazing and even allowed me to get a few dog free longer bike rides in while I was visiting Kelowna. Ranger seemed completely comfortable with both Emilie and her pup Jacki, though I'm sure her Jacki was unimpressed with my tired dog that just wanted to sleep in the A/C for a few hours! Everything went perfectly smooth and I would definitely use Emilie again!”
“I recently visited Kelowna and needed someone to take care of my dog, Aki, on short notice. I was incredibly fortunate to find Suzanne. She was absolutely wonderful! From the moment I contacted her, she was friendly and accommodating. She took Aki in without hesitation and provided ample space for her to run and play. It was clear that she truly understands and loves dogs. Aki was well looked after, and I felt completely at ease knowing she was in such capable hands. I highly recommend Suzanne to anyone in need of pet care. Her kindness and dedication to Aki's well-being made all the difference during my trip.”
“Jeanine was great with our little Marty. He is quite shy with separation anxiety. I used to worry leaving him at doggy day care, but I felt much better leaving him with Jeanine and Tegan. Jeanine has a large gated yard yet still went the extra mile to put up more barricades by her fence to make sure little 10 pound Marty couldn’t sneak out. We look forward to Marty spending more time with Jeanine and Tegan.”
“Jutharat looked after Pippin for a day. He had the best time ever. He played with other puppies and was well taken care off, so much so he didn’t want to come home. 🥹 We enjoyed the wonderful photos throughout the day, it was much appreciated.”
“Lovely couple with big hearts. I gave them very little notice but they were quite accommodating and helped me when I was in a bind. For that I am truly grateful. Tucker was very tired when he came home so I know he played and played.”
“Courtney takes great care of my girl Safira. She regularly walks her and even takes her to the beach when its nice out. I get regular photos and updates sent. Appreciate her kindness and care!”
“Tessa looked after Wes for a few days while I was in town working and Wes just loved his time with her! She's an awesome person and I would highly recommend her! Will definitely reach out next time im in town! Thanks Tessa!”
“Thank you so much Mike! Koda was so happy to have sweet dogs around to help her with her nervousness and she had an amazing time :) so many photos of her having a good time”
“We had a great experience with Anothai and Mersad watching our dog Molly today. They are such a kind and caring husband-and-wife team, and you can tell they genuinely love what they do. Molly was very well cared for, and we felt completely at ease leaving her with them. It is such a nice feeling to find sitters who are warm, trustworthy, and clearly treat dogs with so much love and attention. We would absolutely book with them again and again!!! 😍😍😍”
About: What sets me apart is the genuine love and care I have for every dog I meet. I've always been a huge dog lover, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. Whether it's going for walks, playing, giving lots of cuddles, or simply keeping them company, I make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you're away. I have a very flexible schedule and plenty of time to dedicate to the pets in my care. I can provide regular walks, playtime, feeding, and lots of companionship throughout the day. When pets stay in my home, I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved from the moment they arrive. I have an amazing backyard for them to play as well as near by parks to take them on walks.
About: I love going for walks and training my second rottweiler, Brembo! I love the breed as they are excellent family dogs, great snugglers, and match my energy levels. I love big dogs but I'm also no stranger to small and medium pups! My family has had small dogs for the past 20 years, who I have cared for during my time living with them, and my previous roommates had two medium dogs who I loved to go for walks with. I have previously house and dog sat for up to 5 weeks at a time. I am active and caring, and I love walking and running, especially with a buddy! In addition to walking and hiking with Brembo, I have taken my roommates' dogs on hikes and big runs, and love having a pup to join me while getting active. I love to do training while we are walking, such as sitting while waiting to cross the street or practicing stay and come. I am looking to pick up other dogs while walking or hiking with Brembo, or stop in for short visits (without my dog) to play, give potty breaks, and provide meals! I also work from home full time during the week, so I'm happy to host your pup for the day and take them out for a walk or potty break at least every 2 hours. If you have any questions please don't hesitate to reach out! I work from home full time - I have my own digital marketing business and I set my own hours. I am available most days between 9-5 and would love to take your dog out for activity, come for a short visit, or host them at my place! I leash dogs before we go outside to ensure they are by my side and so that we can easily get back indoors. I take dogs for walks from your place, or drive with them in the back of my SUV if we are going to a hike.
“It’s clear that Erica and David truly love dogs! Winston had a wonderful time with them and enjoyed going to the dog park and spending time with their two dogs. He had great company and was clearly well cared for. We’re so happy with the experience and will definitely book with them again. Thank you both for taking such great care of Winston!”
“Westerly spent a few days with Tania & her hubby and he loved it! They are great people with a lovely home and I could relax knowing Wes was looked after during the days while I was at work. He was always happy to go back when I dropped him off the next day. Will definitely be booking in future when I'm back in town for work!”
“Katie was very easy to work with - she communicated quickly and clearly with us and followed all instructions. We left our dogs with her for the day and felt in the loop with their day and any issues so we were able to enjoy our trip to Kelowna without any stress. Our boys seemed to have a great time hanging out with her! We would definitely recommend Katie to anyone looking for a dog sitter.”
“Nash had a great time playing at Darcy’s and is exhausted now ha ha. He always gets excited when we drive up to her place. She takes good care of Nash. Thank you Darcy!!”
About: I’ve owned dogs all my life and am fortunate to now have a small Pomeranian girl who is VERY sociable. She gets along with any dog and would be present if your dog is staying at my house. I love dogs and would provide the best care for them wether just a walk or pet sitting. I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to give your pet the attention, exercise and companionship they need. I genuinely love spending time with animals and am happy to accommodate walks, drop-in visits, playtime and pet sitting throughout the week. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my priority. I will always follow your usual routine, feeding instructions and any specific care needs you provide. I’m attentive, responsible and will treat your pet and your home with the same care and respect I would want for my own.
“Aiden and Amy were amazing. They took such good care of my dog and were great at staying in communication so I knew he was in good hands. I highly recommend them to take care of your pet.”

“Laura is professional and reliable. She’s very great with my 6 month old puppy and is a great communicator. I hesitate writing a great review as I don’t want everyone scooping her up from me 😅”
“Amanda has been a lifesaver that allowed us to attend a few afternoon and evening events that we wouldn't be able to otherwise. She was very timely and left excellent notes and feedback on our pet's experience and care. We would definitely have Amanda over again in the future!”
About: Hey there, my name is Trinity and I am a HUGE animal lover.I am great at following instructions if your pet is needy or a bit of a handful. I have experience taking care of all sorts of animals since I was a little girl, this includes young and elderly animals.I have also taken care of an elderly cat for an acquaintance multiple times(feeding, cleaning, administering medications, etc.) for extended periods (1 week- 6 months). Furthermore, I have taken care of multiple animals for coworkers and acquaintances on multiple occasions (walking, feeding, and coming up with creative ways to get them to take their medicine! lol). I have now watched dozens of cats and dogs varying in size and breed and have plenty of experience to feel confident in watching any animal, big, small, or even difficult! I am new to rover but not new to animals and how they should be cared for, please message me if you have any questions!

I'm currently in school, so I have plenty of time to feed, play and care for your pets even on short notice! I have lived and cared for pets my whole life until just this past two months, I am missing my little furry buddies! I want to assure you that I take your beloved pets needs seriously and am grateful for the clients who have trusted me to take care of such precious animals in the past.

“Paige has been great with Dave! He is always pooped at the end of his walks and she send great updates through photos. Paige has been really flexible with scheduling and reliable, which has been great! Could recommend more.”
About: I currently own a very sweet and gentle Doberman, he is the third dog I’ve trained over the last 4 years, I have owned him for the last year, he’s great with other dogs! I work from home and create my own schedule so my daily routine is very flexible, I can make any time work any day of the week My apartment is fully enclosed and safe, I live downtown and like to take the dogs for walks and to the fully gated dog park near by
About: I am a calm and quiet person, and I believe pets appreciate me because I understand the importance of giving them the time and space they need to adjust when I am in their space while their family is away. Growing up, I loved helping my family take care of their dogs. I have helped groom, train, feed, and walk their dogs. But I have always had a soft spot for cats and so the first pet of my own is a dog-like cat. I've pet-sat for my friends while they went on longer trips. I have taken care of small to medium sized dogs. I've also worked at a cat cafe, caring for as many as 20 cats at one time. Some of my responsibilities included cleaning, feeding, playing, and observing the cats to ensure they were living their best lives at the cafe before finding their forever homes. My pet is a 2 year old large breed cat whom I adore. He understands basic commands like sit, up, lay down, jump, give paw, spin, roll over, kiss, hug etc. Let me know what your pet's usual routine looks like and what you're looking for and we can go from there! For house sitting: Standard overnight sitting includes 1-2 daily check-ins and staying overnight. Custom schedules or higher-needs care can be accommodated at an adjusted rate. Safety and comfort are my top priority, and that starts with understanding your pet’s unique personality. If you have any notes or a care guide on their routine, please share them with me. I have a particular cat myself, so I’m very experienced with 'fussy' pets. I know that following their exact preferences isn't just about comfort—it’s about making sure they feel secure while you're away.
About: What sets me apart is the genuine love and care I have for every dog I meet. I've always been a huge dog lover, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. Whether it's going for walks, playing, giving lots of cuddles, or simply keeping them company, I make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you're away. I have a very flexible schedule and plenty of time to dedicate to the pets in my care. I can provide regular walks, playtime, feeding, and lots of companionship throughout the day.

About: Sweet and personable which each dog.I have experience taking care of dogs since a young age and have plenty of time to give your best friend the most attention possible! Right now i’m fully free and open to have your pet be my #1 priority as long as I have enough of a heads up notice! I am always very close and personable with each animal I come across, I love building bonds with plenty of different animals and will care for your pet like they’re one of my own.
About: I grew up with pets in my home and I have a great deal of experience dog sitting and dog walking for friends & family. I am currently working part-time hours for the city, so I am looking to fill my afternoons and evenings with something I enjoy. I am available from 2:30 pm-6:30 pm (Monday-Friday). However, I would be open to adjusting my availability depending on the request. I am a trustworthy, organized and reliable person. I hold a current 2026 Police Information Check. I am well versed in safety, trust, and security as I recently graduated with a MA in Criminology.
About: I bring hands-on experience with puppy and kitten development, training, reactivity management, socialization, agility training and pets medical, dietary and behavioural needs. I’m observant, patient and comfortable adapting care to each animal’s temperament and routine. I have owned and cared for dogs from Boston terriers to Pitbull Sharpeis, and have managed through every obstacle possible with two sassy rescue cats, as well as provided pet sitting and boarding in my network, many times through the years. Most recently I provided daily walks, drop ins and training sessions to my neighbour and his Husky pup for 3mo earlier this year. Pet care fits naturally into my schedule, and I’m currently flexible and available for house sitting, drop-ins and walks. I’m comfortable building my day around a pet’s established feeding, exercise, training and care routine. I prioritize a calm, clean and secure environment, following your instructions and keeping pets’ routines as consistent as possible. I use attentive supervision, clear boundaries and positive reinforcement, while treating your home with the same care and respect I would my own.
About: I’ve always loved animals, especially dogs, and have grown up around them. I’m very close with my family dog, Kaia, a 14 year old bichon Shih Tzu. I have many years of hands on experience caring for her, including attending puppy training classes together, she has taught me patience, kindness, and how important it is to make a dog feel loved safe and comfortable. I’m caring, and responsible and genuinely enjoy taking dogs for walks, playing with them, and giving them plenty of attention. I hope to have a dog of my own one day so caring for other people’s pets is something I truly enjoy and take great pride in. Very available weekends, afternoons, and evenings. Available some days during the week depending on my work schedule. Happy to take your pet for long or short walks or even overnight. I treat every pet like they’re part of the family. I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while keeping their normal routines, including walks, playtime, feeding, fresh water, cuddles, and plenty of attention. I’m respectful of each pet’s personality and needs, and I’m happy to follow any specific instructions from their owner. Whether I’m caring for a pet in my home or theirs, my goal is for them to feel relaxed, happy, and well cared for while you’re away.
About: I’ve grown up around animals and have had both dogs and cats in my home since I was nine years old. At one point, I lived in a busy household with four dogs and two cats! For the past 10 years, I’ve also regularly pet sat and walked dogs for people in my community. So, I have lots of experience walking, playing with, and caring for animals of different breeds, sizes, and personalities. I now have a two-year-old mini Goldendoodle of my own, his name is Matcha! We’ve completed both beginner and intermediate dog training together, which has given me more hands-on experience with training and positive reinforcement. I’ve also volunteered at a veterinary clinic, where I had the opportunity to work around animals while helping out in my community. I genuinely love animals and would treat your pets with the same care I give my own. I currently have a very flexible schedule, which allows me to accommodate walks and drop-in visits throughout the day. I’m available on both weekdays and weekends. I always make sure pets feel safe and comfortable and do my best to maintain their normal routine. I pay attention to each pet’s body language and personality and adapt as needed. On walks, I’m attentive to our surroundings and always prioritize your pet’s safety.

I have fostered dogs and was a foster-fail (meaning we adopted) with my dog Juno who is featured in most of my pictures. I have learned so many skills from fostering and raising Juno. I keep Juno quite structured in her day to day because she thrives off that being a working breed, with lots of down time and snuggles. I am respectful of how each owner operates and will follow instructions diligently. I recently moved to Kelowna from Ontario for school. I am a social worker back home and currently doing my MSW at UBCO. My schedule is quite flexible, I’m available Friday-Tuesday anytime and Wednesdays and Thursdays I only have morning availability. I currently do not have any pets in my home, I am doing long distance from both my partner and my dog Juno. When I am interacting with pets in my home or their home I am respectful of their space and needs, and provide structure as needed.
About: I grew up with 8 German Shepherds, 3 cats, and 1 Poodle! I’ve been around dogs my entire life. I’m calm, patient, and great with shy or anxious dogs. I’m able to read dog body language and respect their boundaries. I believe in safety first mindset on walks and in the home, and I genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs, not just watching them. I’m currently working part-time and my job is close to home, so I can walk over during my breaks for check-ins. I attend school full time, with half of my classes online, which means I’m home for majority of the day and able to give pets regular attention and care! I follow a clear schedule for walks, meals, and play-time. On-time care everyday. I care for pets by maintaining their usual routine as closely as possible, whether in my home or a clients home. I make sure they are fed on schedule, get regular walks, and have plenty of attention, playtime, and rest. I pay close attention to their behavior, comfort, and safety, and I always respect house rules and special instructions. I also provide regular updates with photos so pet parents feel at ease while they’re away.

“Anothai and Mersad went above and beyond to care for our dog. We had multiple photo and video updates and we were so at ease knowing our dog had such a loving home while we were away. Thank you both again for everything! Would 100% recommend to anyone looking for a great home away from home for their Pup!”
“Excellent experience! Our dog Melody was super comfortable here and seemed to have had the best time! Thank you for caring for her like we do!! Will most definitely book with Tessa again.”
“Viktorria was able to take Maggie for us on really short notice! She sent many pictures and videos of her on walks and cuddling on the couch. Gave us peace of mind while we were away for 3 nights. Thanks so much for looking after Maggie for us!”
“10⭐️!! Luke had such a great time on his vacation — I swear he didn’t want to come home! Jaeb was great with sharing daily photos of Luke’s stay, brushed him, took him for walk, played inside and out in the yard, and cared for him when he was nervous during the thunderstorm that hit. Immediately after meeting Jaeb we knew Luke was going to be in good hands, and we wouldn’t worry one bit while we were away. We will 100% be using Jaeb again in the future.”
“Susanna and Claude were great. I have 2 very senior dogs and they took them for leasurely strolls at their pace and sent me lots of pic updates. They even had a family emergency and still made sure that the doggos were taken care of. Definitely recommended!”
“Judith was great! Our dog has some quirks that we communicated with her. She is a confident leader and a kind sitter. Our dog was very content upon pick up. Thank you!!”
“Gabrielle is sooo great and provides great warmth - in both her personality and home - for watching Rupert. Our boy had so much fun also with his good friend Juniper. On this first beautiful dat of Spring in the Okanagan, it looked like Rupert also enjoyed soaking up the sun on the balcony. Thank you so much, Gabrielle, for looking after Rupert and the great photos. Much appreciated!!”
“Carla was exceptional with our little boy, TJ. We received daily updates and happy, relaxing puppy pictures. Very confident and pleased to have Carla as our dog sitter, and we would not hesitate to call on Carla again, for sure!”
About: I am a responsible and well-experienced pet caregiver who would treat your fur baby like they were my own. I have had animals in my life since childhood, including cats, dogs, birds, reptiles, horses, chickens, ducks, rodents...you name it, I have probably had it! For dogs, I am available for walks, hikes, in-home sitting, overnight boarding, training, feeding, medication administration, belly rubs, nail trims, and playing fetch and/or other games for stimulation and enrichment. I am confident with all sizes and breeds of dogs. For cats, I am available for drop-in visits, in-home sitting, overnight boarding, feeding, administering medications, nail trims, and providing snuggles. I will also care for reptiles, birds & farm animals of all kinds (just not in my home of course, haha). Most recently I had a cat and a dog, both of whom I said goodbye to earlier in 2026 - so now I looking to fulfill my love for animals by caring for others' babies. Please reach out if you think it may be a good fit! I work from home and have a flexible schedule, so I am easily able to schedule my day around your pet's needs. I am also easily able to bring my work with me, so I can house-sit / pet-sit at your home if that is the preference. There is a beautiful pond and park with walking trails within 200m of my home. I have an outdoor enclosed patio to provide a safe outdoor space for animals (and me!). I also live within walking distance to Knox Mountain where I frequently go for longer hikes (5-10km). I work from home and am a home-body, so your pet would almost always have company, with minimal time alone. I am willing to follow your pet's home routine as closely as possible, and am able to crate your pet when I do leave them alone, if that is your preference.
“Riley can be anxious in new environments and has never been away for more than a few days. We did a meet and greet prior to her stay and were happy when we came to drop her off and she ran into the house without a second glance. Chalan and Joel provided a loving home, and Riley also loved the attention from their two daughters. They communicated and sent photos during the stay. I would have no hesitation recommending them.”
“Yolanda, you were amazing babysitter for Rex. I appreciate you putting Rex first while you were looking after him. You were a great dog sitter. Dealing with you Yolanda was incredible experience, you were kind, very Understanding, accepting to all my demands. It was pleasure dealing with you.”
“Cielo was a fabulous a sitter for our little guy. She kept us posted with pictures! She lives close to our place and it was nice to see he had another pal to chill with. Last minute accommodation was a delightful surprise. Thanks Cielo!”
“We had the absolute BEST experience with sylvie and her family! Our dog Annie was completely spoiled , it was like Annie was on a true holiday! They took her on amazing walks , swimming in the lake and so many fun adventures! Sylvie gave multiple updates and pictures daily ! And she was truly a joy to leave our dog with. I can’t recommend her enough! Thank you so so much sylvie for giving Annie the BEST time ever !”
About: My partner and I have been caring for dogs since we were kids, and dogs have been a huge part of our lives for as long as we can remember. Together, we bring over 40 years of experience caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities. Over the years, we’ve learned that every dog is different. We’ve cared for playful puppies, sweet seniors, energetic goofballs, and dogs with more challenging personalities. We understand the different needs and challenges that come with each stage of a dog’s life, and most importantly, we love them all! ❤️ Spending so much time around dogs has also taught us how to read their body language, understand their behavior, and communicate with them in a way that helps them feel safe and comfortable. When your pup stays with us, their safety, happiness, and comfort will always be our top priorities. We currently have a 10-year-old canine family member named Donnie. He is a super friendly guy who has been around other dogs and enjoys having canine company. To make sure everyone gets along safely and comfortably, we might do a meet-and-greet with Donnie before the first stay. Whether your pup is an energetic ball of chaos, a professional couch potato, or somewhere in between, we’ll do our best to make them feel right at home. 🐕💕 We're also very active and love to go for walks with our canine friends, what's already part of our routine with Donnie. Have questions or want to make sure we’re a good fit for your furry family member? Don’t hesitate to reach out, we’d love to hear from you! I work regular daytime hours, while my partner works nights, which means your pup will rarely be home alone and won’t be left alone for more than a couple of hours a day. We love having dogs around and are happy to give them plenty of attention, playtime, cuddles, and companionship. We have a nice fenced backyard with grass and trees where the dogs can enjoy some outdoor time. We also have a dog door so they can go freely between the house and backyard.
“We had a fantastic experience with the Jeremy! He did a great job giving our dog enough exercise to keep him happy. We also appreciated how well they managed his medications, making sure everything was given on time and correctly. Throughout our time away, they kept us updated with plenty of photos and messages, which really put us at ease. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a trustworthy and attentive dog sitter!”
