“I loved that Chloe gave daily updates with photos. When we went to pick up our dog, he literally ran back into her house, presumably for more play time! Would highly recommended Chloe to give you peace of mind that your dog is in very good hands!”
“Amber took amazing care of my golden retriever,Mabel, while we were away. She went above and beyond to make sure Mabel was comfortable and happy, providing regular updates and photos that gave me peace of mind. Amber gave Mabel plenty of extra snuggles and attention to help her settle in, which I truly appreciated! Mabel enjoyed lots of muddy, wet walks alongside Amber’s lovely dog, Copper, and was treated to enrichment activities and treats that kept her engaged. When I picked Mabel up, she was calm, happy, and relaxed—a true testament to the care Amber provided. Highly recommend! Thank you so much, Amber! Mabel looks forward to her next visit!”
“Lucy was so well taken care of. We were able to relax on our trip knowing she was in such good care . Our family also really appreciated the photo updates of Lucy. Kids especially loved that. Her communication was fantastic and she updated us continually without us having to ask, So considerate and thoughtful of her. We would highly recommend Susan for pet care and will definitely be using her again. Thank you!!!”
“Dominique and family took very good care of our Ava girl. The kids were very tentative and caring aswell as Dominique. They took our girl out on adventure played with her and the kids like to have sleep overs with her aswell as ava. Thank you so much Dominique and family you were all so great and we know Ava is well taking care of in your home and we look forward to her visiting again 😊”
“Ingrid did a fantastic job looking after my dog. She was very accommodating with my inconvenient times and sent photos and made sure he was safe. I’ll be using Ingrid again for the next time I’m away!”

Dogs can come along for any and all the adventures where appropriate. Biking, hiking, beach plays, trail runs. Back yard not fenced, very friendly German Shepard shares the yard. Steps away from the beach so many strolls for sniffs and pee breaks. One very excited toddler to pet and play. Has learned to be gentle with dogs.
“This lovely family took such good care of Opie. I know he was a bit of a brat but they handled him well. He loved their boys and was so tired he slept for 2 days. Thank you for your care and attention.”
About: Hi! I’m a mom of three with a 8 year old pup and 2 year old cat of my own, so I understand how important it is to know your pup is being well taken care of. I offer dog walking in your neighbourhood, drop in’s and dog boarding in my home. Dogs must be good with small children, dogs and cats if staying in my home. I’m currently working part-time. I can be very flexible with your schedule needs, I will have plenty of time to tend to your animals. Thank you! When caring for pets in my clients’ homes, I stick to your pet’s usual routine as closely as possible. I make sure they’re fed on time, have fresh water, get outdoor breaks (for dogs), and have clean litter boxes (for cats). I spend time with them so they feel comfortable and not just “checked on.” I’m respectful of your space, and I always make sure everything is secure and tidy when I leave.
“Taryn is a kind and conscientious dogsitter. I would recommend her to anyone for dog sitting. Also, my car wouldn’t start after I picked up my dog and she was so helpful during this unforeseeable hiccup. Thank you so much for your kindness and hospitality, Taryn!”
“A big help when I suddenly was in town for the day for a tour and needed boarding for my dog during the day, during a holiday weekend. My dog is a recent rescue and nervous around other dogs, but she had a glorious time and I’m so glad for all the bonding, and for the open spaces that she was encouraged to explore outside on the land and inside the home.”
“Honey had a great time at Carol's, it was her first time away from us and she was very reassuring with Honey. Loved that Carol kept in touch while we were away and sent us pics of Honey on her vacation. Her dogs are also very sweet and patient. Thanks Carol !”
“Janine and her family took such great care of Natty-Bo! Lots of fun play-time, couch snuggles, photos and love. This was our first time leaving our pup and we had zero concerns while we were away. Thank you so much for that peace of mind!”
About: We had to say goodbye to our sweet dog last fall and would welcome some occasional furry love in our home again! I understand what’s involved in taking care of a dog properly, all while giving them love and attention. I raised a vizsla dog from puppy through to senior and passing on. He had epilepsy which required daily medication his whole life, was a high energy alpha male, and had lots of minor medical issues. I also grew up with a collie-shepherd rescue when I was younger. During the summer months I don’t work, so looking to add a furry friend to our family while I’m home. I have kids, so while we may go out for occasional outings, if the dog isn’t joining us, the dog would only be home for a few hours. During the school year, I would only be gone weekdays for 4-6 hours. I have a fenced rural property (just under an acre) on the edge of Comox, with access to trails and beaches, galore! There is a mudroom inside our home that is a safe place to leave a dog, or a crate if they feel safe. My children understand how to approach and treat dogs carefully and respectfully (they are 7 and 10 years old). With some blankets on the couch, your dog is welcome up for some cuddles! The house is well setup for a dog, as our last one lived here too. There is always access to fresh water for your pup, we have a walk in shower with easy access from the door on tile, and our home is a comfortable temperature year round with a heat pump.
About: I'm comfortable with walks, feeding, playtime, reinforcing routines and providing lots of attention and affection. I understand that every dog has a unique personality and energy level, so I tailor my care to their individual needs. I work from home Monday to Friday and my schedule is quite flexible on thursdays and Fridays. I can visit the animals in between work hours and am free evenings/weekends. I have a vehicle and driving to you is not a problem. I follow each pet's regular routine, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, potty breaks, medications (if needed), and plenty of attention and affection. I can keep owners updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you're away if they prefer. I treat every animal like they are my own.
“Sean and his wife are wonderfully warm and welcoming. Our dog was comfortable right away in their home. Sean has previous experience with training and caring for his dogs. Our boy had just received surgery and Sean was respectful of his aftercare. I enjoyed the photos they would send me. When the time comes I would definately call them again!”
About: Hi! My name is Oxana, and I would love to take care of your dog. I have been a dog owner for over 13 years and have plenty of experience caring for dogs with different personalities and energy levels. I currently have a Husky mix, so I’m very comfortable with active, intelligent, and high-energy breeds. I have a flexible work schedule, which allows me to be flexible with both days and hours. Whether your dog needs walks, playtime, companionship, or loving care while you’re away, I’ll make sure they feel safe, happy, and well looked after. I understand that every dog is unique, and I’m happy to follow your pet’s routine and specific needs. I will care for your dog as if they were my own. I look forward to meeting you and your furry friend! 🐾 have a flexible work schedule, which allows me to be flexible with both days and hours.

“Firstly, THANK YOU. Our sweet little Senna had the best day of her life at Andew & Diana's. They are responsive, friendly, communicative and passionate about caring for dogs. We did a meet and greet before doing a full day of doggy daycare. I appreciated Diana's emphasis on safety and her attentiveness to the animals. It's not easy to find good, safe, reliable care so knowing that they had eyes on her was reassuring. The check-ins and pictures were wonderful, I would highly recommend them.”
“Amber did a fabulous job taking care of Ranger. She was calm and thoughtful with our exuberant young husky. Communication with Amber was easy and she sent lots of photos to keep us up to date. I am pretty sure Ranger looked back over his shoulder as we walked back to the car at the end of the day. I would recommend Amber and will call on her again.”
“Janine took good care of Darla while I went to go check out the Tulip Festival. Took her on a walk to the beach and ensured she was quite entertained. Janine also frequently sent photo updates and quite responsive when I asked how Darla was doing. ☺️ Highly recommend getting her as a dog sitter.”
About: I’m Sandy — an animal-loving sitter with 30+ years of experience caring for dogs and cats. Pet sitting lets me combine my love of travel and animals while giving pets lots of love and their owners a completely worry-free vacation. I’ve spent decades involved in Pomeranian rescue, performed home checks for Little Paws Rescue, and most recently was a flight angel bringing two pups from Mexico to their forever homes. I’m especially good with seniors, shy animals, and pets who need a little extra patience and attention. I work part-time remotely, so your pets get plenty of company throughout the day. I’m a non-smoker with a peaceful, easygoing demeanor. I enjoy quiet hobbies like reading and yoga — which helps create a calm, relaxing environment for the pets I care for. I’m clean, respectful, and will look after your home as if it were my own. 🐾 Optional: I share my life with a gentle, well-socialized Pomeranian named Sable. She gets along well with both dogs and cats, and is fully housetrained, friendly, and easygoing. If you’re open for her to join me, she makes a sweet, low-maintenance companion — but she’s just as happy staying at home if you’d prefer a pet-free sit. References available. *Sable's reference: She was a therapy dog at the last dental office I worked at. She helped calm nervous patients, especially children. This speaks volumes about her character. I work from remotely part time. This gives me lots of flexibility to spend time with your pets and caring for you home while you are away. While you are away, I will treat your home and pets as if they were my own. My priority will be to keep your pets comfortable, happy, and on their normal routine while also making sure your home is safe and well cared for. Pet care will include: Feeding your pets according to their regular schedule and instructions. Providing fresh water every day. Giving medications or supplements as directed, if required. Making sure they receive their usual exercise, playtime, attention, and companionship. Keeping litter boxes, food areas, and other pet areas clean. Watching for any changes in their behaviour, appetite, or overall well-being and contacting you if I have any concerns. Sending you updates and photos so you know how your pets are doing while you're away. Home care will include: Keeping the home clean and tidy. Bringing in mail, packages, and newspapers. Taking garbage and recycling out as needed. Watering plants according to your instructions. Following any instructions for heating, lights, security systems, or other household routines. Making sure doors and windows are secure when I leave. Letting you know right away about any maintenance issues or unexpected problems. I will respect your home, privacy, and belongings and will do my best to leave everything in the same condition as when you left. Most importantly, I want you to be able to enjoy your time away knowing that your pets are safe, cared for, and receiving plenty of love and attention.
“Leaving my puppy with Jaqueline was an absolute peace of mind. She was very kind and took care of my puppy in his last days of wearing the cone after his neutering surgery. My puppy loved staying with Jaqueline!”
