“I can’t say enough about how much we were pleased with Sandra’s service. It was our first time in 7 years leaving the dog with someone. My wife was extremely worried. But the first day we received a picture of Max (our dog) walking with kids to school, we realized he is fine, which allowed us to relax and actually enjoy our vacation. Sandra is very caring, responsible and just great. We were receiving pictures and short reports every day and in general the communication was very easy and prompt. Max had a great time as well, being in a company of kids and a centre of attention, we couldn’t find a better arrangement for our dog. And actually we think he misses them. Highly recommend!”
“Our 13 year old Ruby stayed with Maryanne overnight. Maryanne sent text and photo updates to let us know the dog was doing alright. Ruby enjoyed the backyard with their dog. Unfortunately, Ruby made a mistake on the area rug! So sorry about that.”
“We had such a great experience leaving our dog with them in their home. She was clearly so comfortable and well loved, and we got updates that made us feel totally at ease while we were away. Millie came home happy, relaxed, and very well cared for. We’re so grateful and wouldn’t hesitate to have her stay with them again—highly recommend!”
“Maple and Otter had a great time. Connie gave me lots of updates and it sounds like they were comfortable with her family from the very start. Her dog Alpha was a great playmate and welcomed them graciously. I will definitely book with Connie again.”
“Thank you for taking such amazing care of our dogs. We know that they are in such a good care when they are in your hands. We received daily updates of our dogs having a great time with Coco. We plan on boarding them again soon.”
“We’ve used Andrea and Sergio twice for dog sitting in preparation for an upcoming vacation. Prior to our vacation, we just did a two-night trial stay, and we’re so glad we did. Our baby boy Prince, a teacup Maltipoo puppy, had an amazing time with them. Prince is quite shy and needs a little extra attention and care, and Andrea and Sergio were attentive and understanding of his needs. They kept us updated and provided some really helpful feedback about his stay. We’re very happy we chose Andrea and Sergio again.”
“Frank and Maye were vary accomodation and took all the steps to make sure our Fred will have a comfortable stay. They even arranged a pre-trip visit to see the environment. They sent us many updates through out the day and kept Fred active during the stay. Very loving home I can recommend for anyone!”
“Minerva was absolutely amazing with our dog, Pablo! From the moment we met her, it was clear how caring, kind, and compassionate she is. She treated Pablo like he was her own, making sure he was happy, comfortable, and well cared for while we were away. Knowing Pablo was in such loving and capable hands gave us complete peace of mind. Minerva went above and beyond, and we couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter. We are incredibly grateful for the care and attention she gave Pablo. Thank you so much, Minerva!”
“Nairoby took wonderful care of our dog, Leo, while we were away for a few days. She was flexible with timing, clearly loves dogs, and sent frequent updates that gave us peace of mind. Leo was a happy boy. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable sitter!”
“Angela was the best pet sitter i could hope for for my senior dog. I felt so lucky that she was available and I knew my dog would be cared for really well. Super thankful for Angela and her kiddos.”
“Amazing cat sitter! My cat was happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. I really appreciated the updates and photos. My cat is diabetic and Trudy was very comfortable giving his insulin injections which put my mind at total ease. I’d absolutely book again and highly recommend!”
“Kelsey was wonderful overall! She gave daily updates, took my dog on walks, and was very flexible and easy to work with and clearly someone who truly loves animals. I came home to a happy, well-cared-for pup. Highly recommend! I would absolutely book with her again.”
“This was the first time leaving George with a non family member. Ashleigh made us feel so comfortable and that George would be looked after. She sent pictures and updates which made us feel happy. George really enjoyed his time and I could see he was cared for and was treated like a king. Thank you and we will book again with Ashleigh, as we know she really cared for our Mr George. This was a great experience.”
“Jessie took such wonderful care of Max, and I couldn’t have asked for a better dogsitter. She genuinely cared for him and kept me updated with lots of photos, which gave me so much peace of mind while we were away. It was heartwarming to see how happy Max was and how quickly he bonded with Bubbles (her pup) and settled into her home. Knowing he was comfortable, loved, and having fun made all the difference. I would absolutely book with Jessie again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring dogsitter.”
“Mandy and Jacky are the best. They took very good care of my boy, provided regular feedback and treated him as their own family member. I would again go back to them. Very professional and gentle souls : )”
“We couldn't be happier Rui as sitter for Theo, again. She was incredibly attentive, caring, and professional. Theo instantly warmed up to her, and it was clear they treated our furry boy like their own. We received regular updates and photos, which gave us great peace of mind. Highly recommend Rui to anyone looking for reliable and loving care for their pets!”

About: Dear pet parents, over the past 8 years, I’ve been traveling the world as a full time house and pet sitter lovingly caring for dogs and cats across six continents. For me, a home without pets simply doesn’t feel like home 🐱🐶 Along the way, I’ve also regularly worked in animal rescue which has given me experience with anxious animals as well as administering medication. I'm currently living and traveling in Canada and would love to offer my services. Feel free to message me and I’m happy to share lots of positive references 🤍 All the best, Verena I am currently studying online and spend a lot of time at home myself, which means I can dedicate plenty of time to your pets. However, since I also love being in nature, I enjoy taking long walks and even longer hikes. I prefer to care for animals in their familiar environment, at your home, and I do my best to stick to their usual routines and daily habits, as I have found through many years of experience that this is what is best for the animal. :)
“We were very happy to leave our dog with Bee and Scott and their dog. Our dog was well cared for as Bee walked him a couple of times, at least for an hour.each time. Our pup enjoyed playing with their dog who was very well behaved. Bee fed our dog lunch and cuddled with him on the couch. Bee's love of dogs and her affection for our dog was obvious. Bee sent us several pictures throughout the day which we enjoyed. We felt reassured leaving our pup with her for the day. We would recommend Bee and Scott as dog sitters!”
About: I hade previous experience walking dogs before, all sizes. I’ve volunteered in animal shelters. VTA certificate, trained and my friends and family always refer to me to take care of their pets knowing I would be happy to do it. I currently have open availability. Mornings and mid-afternoon is the best time for me to give service. Sunday's is my day off, but for the rest of the week you can count on me. I live in a pet friendly neighborhood with a lots of free space around to take walks, a beach close to me and a space for crate.
About: I have had cats or dogs my whole life. I’d love to make your travel easier by caring for your beloved fur babies while you are away from home. I work from home and can rearrange my schedule during the day to stop in and take your pets out for potty breaks or a quick walk or cuddles. I don’t currently have pets in my home, so if your pets overnight here, they will have my full attention. I live in Sidney very close to walking paths and parks for walks and playtime.
“Sasha had a great day with Heather and Ivan. Not only did they make their home welcoming to her, they also made sure she got out for some exercise and fun! It’s much easier to walk away when you pooch walks straight into their home and starts checking things out and we were greeted warmly. I would for sure reach out To Heather again. Thanks for the positive experience and caring for Sasha.”
“My 9 month old dachshund puppy, Poppy, had an another great visit with Julia and her lovely family. We had a long day at a funeral out of town and it was too long a day to leave her. Julia was available and it worked out perfectly.”
“Kristine was so accommodating… on a last minute booking. She welcomed Ruby with lots of love and enthusiasm. She sent us photos and updates which we we loved. Ruby was well cared for.”
“Thank you for helping our family with last minute bookings when are schedules don’t align. Our Nala loves coming to see you and enjoys time with your family. Thank you for taking such great care of her.”
“Danielle is wonderful! I trust her with my dogs completely and she has great communication around what she offers and expectations. She has a wealth of knowledge on dog behaviour and she applies it to support my dogs’ learning where it’s needed! She also sends updates on the day and even takes them on adventures, etc! Highly recommend! She has been a huge relief and help to me as a single working person!”
“Linda provided amazing care for my dog! Super helpful to deal with, accommodated my busy schedule, and my dog came back happy! Thank you so much for looking after my precious pup. I feel lucky to have found you, and will definitely be back again:)”
About: I grew up with cats & dogs, & have experience with all sizes of dogs, cats and other small animals like rabbits. We are in a condo so accepting dogs and cats under 30 pounds. I have experience giving medication & injections when needed. Your pet is in good hands! We will play, snuggle and have a good time. I work from home so I am available all day & weekends. I have a small dog named Gizmo who gets along with most dogs & cats. I have one 18 lb Jack Russell who is almost five. Your pup can play with Gizmo, pets are part of the family here we care for them like children.
About: I have experience caring for dogs of different sizes, ages, and energy levels, and I’m comfortable adapting care to each dog’s routine and needs. I focus on calm, consistent handling and clear expectations, which helps dogs settle quickly. I’m attentive on walks, respectful of training cues, and comfortable supporting puppies as well as senior dogs. I follow care instructions closely, keep environments safe and structured, and pay attention to behaviour or health changes. You can expect reliable communication, thoughtful updates, and care that prioritizes your dog’s wellbeing while you’re away. Although I work full time, I have flexibility to work from home when needed, which allows me to build pet care smoothly into my daily routine. When working in the office I commute to Nanaimo, which means I can provide home care to pets from Shawnigan Lake to Nanaimo. I focus on creating a safe, calm environment for pets, both in my home and in clients’ homes. I stick to routines, follow instructions carefully, and pay close attention to safety on walks and at home. I’m respectful of clients’ spaces and keep things clean and secure. You’ll receive regular updates so you can feel confident your pet is well cared for.
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and currently care for 4 cats and a dog of my own, so I understand the daily needs, routines, and personalities of different pets. I genuinely love animals and treat every pet like family. I’m experienced with feeding, walking, playtime, and giving pets the attention and care they deserve, whether they’re energetic or more relaxed. I also offer boarding in a safe, comfortable, and pet-friendly home where your pets will get plenty of attention and care while you’re away. I work part time for myself from home, so I’m able to give pets lots of attention throughout the day. My flexible schedule allows me to stay on top of feeding times, walks, playtime, and check-ins, making sure pets feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away. I have 5 acres of space for dogs to explore and play, along with a fenced play area for safe outdoor time. I also have a friendly 2 year old lab to keep your dog company. I’m able to crate dogs if needed, depending on their routine, to make sure they feel safe and comfortable while in my care.
“Sara was great, she clearly knows dogs very well. My dog is 95 lbs, has unreliable recall, and can be reactive to certain things, but after meeting Sara and chatting a bit, I felt 100% confident that she could handle him. Will be using her services regularly.”

“Heather was great about getting back to me in a timely manner for planning last minute, and sent lots of photos of my pup for me. It looked like Dolly had a great time there and appeared to be very comfortable when i arrived to pick her up, really appreciate the help and will be using Heather again in the future!”
“We had great experience booking with Allison, she was very responsive, kept us updated throughout the stay, and sent lots of pictures, which we really appreciated. Communication was excellent and gave us peace of mind the entire time. We highly recommend her to anyone!”
“Shane was a gift and a blessing to our family. We were left with a last minute situation to find care for our Australian Shepard, Lucy. With no time to prepare Lucy suffered from unexpected anxiety. Shane was so patient and knowledgeable. She helped Lucy through her anxiety and by the end of their week together I have no doubt that they bonded forever. I would, without a doubt, recommend Shane as a safe, loving home to board your pet.”
“Karin was wonderful with my husky, Baylee. I just felt so comfortable with her and her family from the moment I met her and when I left Baylee with her. I will definitely be booking stays again with Karin!”
“Anisa was extremely responsive, flexible, and easy to communicate with throughout the process. Most importantly, it was clear that my dog was comfortable with her and had a great time while in her care! It’s always reassuring to know your dog is happy and well looked after, and I felt confident leaving him with her. I would definitely recommend her to others looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter!”
“Sidney was amazing. Oslo took to her from the moment they met. She was very accommodating. I was delayed on my return from Kelowna and while I was stressing about it she kept reassuring me that it was fine. When I picked Oslo up, not only did I return to a happy boy, but he seemed to have charmed the entire family as I met Sidney's family who were clearly spoiling him with love. I recommend Sidney to anyone that is looking for kind and thoughtful caregiver to your fur baby.”
“Rannah and Franki were absolutely amazing, so caring, thoughtful and really caring for Toby ! They kept a great schedule of exercise, playtime, feeding and breaks !! Loved the regular detailed notes, pictures and videos! Toby had loads of fun with and their sweet dog !! He was so happy and relaxed ! We’re very comfortable leaving our high energy guy with them. We plan to leave Toby with them for an extended period of about 17 days in February while we’re out of the country!! Rabnah and Franki are honest, professional, caring and responsible!”
“Criofan took excellent care of Handsome! He had a lot of fun, and her well-trained delightful dog is H's new bestie. She was responsive, intuitive, and attentive, ensuring that H fit in, and that he remembered to eat! He came home from his adventure tired but happy. The dream! Thank you!”
