Personalized care for your dog or cat - Port Renfrew

About: My partner and I are 2 active people who absolutely love dogs and regularly dogsit for our friends. Your pup will enjoy a cozy home and a spacious yard, a perfect place to play, relax and feel at home! On weekends, we are either working on the yard, out and about on local trails and beaches, or cozing it up at home. During the week, I work at a local school. I leave around 8 and come back at 3. My partner (who is also registered as a caretaker with Rover) works from home 3x/week. We are both active people. We’ll bring your pet on the adventure they need. It can be a beach walk, a forest hike, a short loop in the neighborhood or just a pee walk and some cuddles on the couch. Our backyard is not fenced and we live on the countryside. Depending on your comfort level and recall skills of your pet, there is lot of outdoor space to explore if they can be trusted. They could also be set up on a long leash if they need to with lots of space on the front yard. When hanging out inside, couches and beds are available for them, we dont mind if they want to get cozy. During the week, our schedule allows for walks in the morning and after work depending on your pet’s needs. Some work days, we are away for 6-8hours. Others (3x/week), my partner is here and will love having a work companion. On weekends, we would love to bring your dog on our adventures !

About: I have been a cat own most of my life growing up and I love them and they love me, I work online so I’ll be giving your pet list of company and pet (if they want them). I’m clean and organized and respectful so your space will be taken care of as well.

About: I have over 7 years of experience caring for cats of all ages and personalities. From playful kittens full of energy to calm senior cats who need extra patience and attention, I know how to provide the right balance of love, safety, and comfort. I can handle feeding routines, litter box cleaning, grooming, giving medications if needed, and making sure your cat feels safe and happy while you are away. I truly enjoy spending time with cats, playing with them, and building trust so they feel loved and cared for like they are my own

“Absolutely amazing! We left Nibbler so we could go surfing on our last day, and Nibbler was a tired and happy dog when we got back. He got to walk all the way into town, and stop at the beaches on the way. If we ever need a sitter again in Tofino, I’d absolutely trust Etienne. Nibby can also ‘scream’ at sticks and such sometimes (he has a weird bark) and Etienne handled it with grace!! I’ve always been worried because of my dogs breed - that people may judge him, but Nibbler is full of love and kindness and Etienne shared that back with Nibby! Thank you so so much!”
