“Karen was exceptional with our blizzard and kept him for an extra night. She took him on hikes and walks and helped with potty training. Sent us tons of photos and made blizzard feel like he’s part of the pack! They had a great time!! We will use Karen as our go to every time we are in Whistler!”
“Jennie looked after our puppy during our first time away from home since getting him. I was very comfortable as she sent lots of photos and updates and always answered promptly. Thank you Jennie!”
“Jade and her partner were incredibly caring with our pooch. They took her on lot's of adventures, and kept us updated with fun stories and pictures. When my flight was delayed they even went out of their way to make sure she got home safely at the end of her visit. Would love to have them take care of our girl again in the future!”
“Sona was super responsive and caring for our two senior pups. She sat with them while we skied and enjoyed Whistler. She made sure they were safe and happy. Would definitely recommend!”
About: I’ve loved caring for animals since I was a teenager, starting with my beloved sausage dog (even if some say they’re not “real” dogs!). Since moving to Whistler, I’ve regularly dog-sat for friends whenever they traveled and couldn’t bring their pups along. For the past two years, my partner and I have had a hedgehog, but since he’s nocturnal, I’ve definitely felt a bit of an “attention void” during the day—so I’d love to give your pet all the care and affection they deserve! I work from home as a sales rep for a pool construction company, and ever since COVID, all my meetings happen online, over the phone, or through email. That means I’m home most of the time, which makes it easy to give your doggie plenty of attention throughout the day! We live in a house with a spacious living room where pets can relax and feel at home when I’m pet-sitting. Our neighborhood is perfect for dogs, with dog parks and forest trails just a few minutes away—so your furry friend will get plenty of walks and outdoor time! Even while I’m working, I always keep an eye on them to make sure they’re safe, comfortable, and getting the attention they need.
“Carla, Jeremy, Poppy and Mavi were just amazing with Roxy. We could tell Roxy was getting as much love and attention as she does at home. We would highly recommend them to dog sit, dog walk or board anytime. Thanks so much. Roxy is looking forward to her next visit.”
“Damian was fantastic. This was the first time I have used Rover and left Lenny with a stranger. Damian was great with sending updates and pictures. Lenny is a high energy 2 year old Golden Retriever, he came back happy and tired. I would recommend Damian to anyone who is looking for dog care in Whistler.”
“Laurence and Charles were gentle and attentive with our older Golden, Molly. They picked her up, walked her often, gave her lots of love and snuggles and made us feel safe knowing Molly was well loved while we were away. Daily photos and updates really helped. Their interaction was kind, polite and very comforting. Highly recommend!!”
“Vanessa took amazing care of our Finnegan and sent us a bunch of photo updates throughout the day. We would definitely book with her again if we were visiting the Whister area ?”
“Amanda and Thomas took care of our dog Red for a day and night when we were out attending a wedding, and we could tell right from start that they are dog people and are super familiar with nervous/anxious dogs. They were both ready with treats for the intro with Red, which was super thoughtful! Red had a great vacation with Amanda and Thomas, felt right at home with them and enjoyed a hike! She was happy to see me when I arrived to pick her up but was also totally happy to stay with Amanda and Thomas. Looks like she had a great time and grateful to have connected with Amanda and Thomas at such short notice.”
About: We are an active couple with experience caring for a wide range of dogs, primarily medium to large breeds. We’re comfortable with multiple dogs, high-energy dogs, dogs in heat, and pets with medications or specific dietary needs. Living in Squamish, we love spending time outdoors and enjoy taking dogs on long walks, hikes, and adventures. Our flexible schedules allow us to provide plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship throughout the day. We take a patient, calm, and positive approach to pet care, focusing on trust, consistency, and making every dog feel safe, comfortable, and at home. Pet care fits very naturally into our routine. Amanda works just five minutes from home, allowing for regular check-ins throughout the day, while Drew is building his company remotely and has the flexibility to work from home. Safety is our priority. We pay close attention to traffic, wildlife, other dogs, and each dog's comfort level when we're out walking or exploring. Off-leash time is only done with the owner's permission and when it's appropriate for the dog's environment. Trust comes from following your instructions and putting your dog's needs first. We take the time to understand each dog's routine and personality so we can provide consistent care. Our goal is to make dogs feel relaxed, loved, and at home by maintaining their usual routines and providing plenty of attention, exercise, and care in a clean and comfortable environment.
About: I have looked after dogs and cats for many years. While I don’t have a dog at home currently (my last dog, Iggy, an Australian Kelpie passed away in March at 15 years old) I would like to welcome fur babies from time to time. I work part time from home so I have plenty of time to look after doggies. It’s just my 9 year old daughter and myself and we both adore 4 legged companions. I live on a quiet cul-de-suc with plenty of greenery and snow in winter with a dog park near by (walking distance). I offer plenty of short outdoor breaks or long walks (whatever the preference is). I can provide regular updates and plenty of pictures/videos. I am happy to look after senior dogs or puppies as I have experienced with both.
About: Hi, I’m Rachel! I’ve spent my whole life around dogs and cats and love spending time in their company. I know how important it is to give pets not just care, but love, patience, and attention. I have owned my own dogs and cats and have worked with them professionally too, as a dog aquafit specialist in Vancouver. Now, i work from home in Squamish a few days a week, which means I can offer plenty of company, playtime, walks and snuggles. I also have a toddler who is very respectful of animals and loves being around them. Your pet will always feel safe and comfortable in our home. Whether it’s walks, cuddles, or just a calm presence, I’ll treat your furry family member like my own. Pet care naturally fits into my daily routine because I’ve always had animals in my life. I’m used to feeding, walking, playtime, and giving lots of affection throughout the day. Since I work from home a few days a week, I have the flexibility to provide companionship and regular check-ins. On the days I’m not home full time, I still structure my mornings and evenings around pet care, whether that’s longer walks, cuddle time, or keeping up with their routines. In my home, pets are treated like family. I make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and loved by keeping to their normal routines—whether that’s walks, playtime, feeding schedules, or quiet cuddle time. I’m attentive to their needs and always provide plenty of supervision, affection, and stimulation. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow your instructions closely to make sure your pet feels secure in their own environment. I maintain their regular schedule, give them lots of attention, and provide updates so you know how they’re doing while you’re away.
“Jenna and her partner were great with Kevin. He spent 3 days and 2 nights with them and seemed to settle in really well despite his anxious tendencies. We felt at ease while away knowing they were doting on him as much as we do. On pick-up day, the highway was backed up for hours but Jenna was happy to keep him longer until we could safely get to their house, which was so appreciated. Thanks Jenna!”
“Choose Kelly for her regular updates, adorable photos, and the frequent hikes in beautiful forested areas. My dog had the best time, and I had peace of mind knowing they were in great hands!”
About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life, so I get how to keep young puppies happy and active or give extra TLC to senior pups. Whether it’s fun walks, playtime, or cozy care, I’m all about making your dog feel loved and keeping those tails wagging! Pet care is my daily jam! As a dog walker, I take pups on fun hikes, blending work with love for dogs. My wife’s home to keep an eye on them, and our 5-year-old golden retriever loves making new friends. We have an 8 year old that will also be around the pets but always under supervision. My family loves your dog like our own. I lead leashed walks, staying alert for other dogs. My wife and son ensure constant care, and our golden retriever plays gently. Your pup stays happy and safe!
“Our dog Gus loved this stay with Tessy. He was socialized with other dogs, had plenty of activity and she was so flexible with his drop off and pick up times changing. I actually think this was Gus' favorite dog sitter to date.”
“Raffie had a great stay with Olivier and Marie! Raffie is an older pup, and requires a little more care but Olivier was on top of it. They were quick to respond, sent lots of pictures and flexible when it came to all of Raffie's needs. Highly recommend and looking forward to booking again!”
About: Hi there! My name is Denise. I am studying an MBA program and working part-time. I had to leave my doggy son in my home country while I’m studying here and I miss him so much. I would love to spend my time taking care of your dog as if they were my own. I would make sure to keep happy just like I did with my own I enjoy walking as well as just going down to the lake for some playtime. I have a very flexible schedule and look forward to hearing from you. Feel free to message me anytime and arrange something. Hope to hear from you soon! Thank you I'm currently studying and working part time so my schedules are flexible. We can coordinate and see how our schedules will fit the best way for your dog I'm always watching your dog to know that he is safe and doesn't need anything. When walking him I can take him with the leash or without it, depending on your preferences

About: Hi! I’m an experienced animal caregiver who’s always loved being around pets—especially cats. I grew up with cats (along with a few other animals!) and started pet sitting at 15, so caring for them has always been part of my life. I have a Horse Specialist degree and have spent years working and living on farms and ranches, so I’m very comfortable reading animal behavior and adapting to different personalities. I’ve also assisted vets with all kinds of treatments—from surgeries to smaller care like bandaging and injections—so I’m confident handling cats who may need a bit of extra care or attention. I know every cat is unique, and I always approach them with patience and respect, making sure they feel safe and comfortable in their own space. I treat every cat like my own and will do my best to keep their routine as stress-free as possible. I’d love to meet you and your cat! 🐱

“Olly was a wonderful sitter for our little fur friend and was willing to stay a bit longer so my partner and I could enjoy a nice birthday dinner while visiting Whistler. Olly came prepared with treats to win our little buddy and gave us updates on Loic's behavior. Thanks again Olly and if he's available to help while you're visiting Whistler I would highly recommend!”
“Marni, helped me out when my house sitter left unexpectedly while I was out of Canada. She was very reliable and took great care of my two cats for several weeks. She was great at letting me know how they were doing and letting me know in advance when pet supplies were running low. It was a great comfort knowing that they were getting such good care. I highly recommend her!”

About: Everybody wonders why I don’t have a dog. In my free time I walk dogs. They bring me so much joy. And they get me out and about. For the majority of my life I have had a dog. At this point in my life it’s not ideal as I use to and hopefully will travel again for work. I was a canine massage practitioner so your pet will get lots of good pets! I am very active and love discovering all the trails the Sea to Sky has to offer. I have lived in Whistler for 20 years and I am very familiar with the area. If would like to know more please let me know. Looking forward to meeting your furry family member(s). I work for myself so I have a very flexible schedule. I like morning adventures in the woods and maybe one in the afternoon as week! Depends on what the dogs needs! I like to meet the owner and the pets a few times to make sure the pets have time to adjust and the owners feel comfortable with me in their home taking care of their pets.
About: Before moving to Whistler, I had never lived in a home without a cat! They are my favourite animals! I understand their unique personalities and quirks, and I’m happy to provide a calm, cozy space where they’ll feel safe and relaxed, whether that’s in our cozy one-bedroom or your place! :)

About: I have over 9 years experience living with and taking care of family and friends dogs. I have cared for many dog breeds from large Mountain dogs to small Cavachon pups. I love to walk pups around the valley trail and forest trails that are close to my home, there’s also a number of dog parks nearby where the dogs can play off-leash. I work from home remotely, part-time and have a flexible schedule so I find it easy to fit in pet care. I am available weekdays and weekends. I live in an a-frame house, close to Creekside. My home has enough space for pups to play and relax. I am a 10 minute walk away from the dog park and forest trails.
About: I am 30 years old and live in Squamish full time. With 6 years of experience pet/house sitting in the Sea to Sky, I have developed strong relationships with many dog & cat parents. I miss having a dog of my own, so caring for local pets brings me so much joy. I grew up caring for neighbourhood dogs, volunteering at the SPCA and assisting at vet clinics. This experience in animal care exposed me to dogs with challenging behaviours and taught me what’s needed to keep your dog happy and healthy. I am also very active, and would love to take your dog on runs and trail walks. I am willing to adapt to different pet routines and keep your animal company with house sitting services. I love incorporating training techniques and mental stimulation into your dogs care. I am open to caring for all breeds and sizes as well. I am very organized and responsible as a service provider. Walking, playing with and spending time with your dog are my top priorities! I work from home which allows for flexible time to care for your pet(s) and go for mid-day walks. I am happy to provide 2+ walks a day for active dogs. I will not be able to provide care in my own home, but would be happy to do home visits or housesit while you are away, in addition to daily walks.
About: Having already worked in doggy daycare and kennels in both the UK and Australia I have vast experience of working with all different breeds, big and small. Currently settled in Whistler for the winter, available for every service other than boarding. Different length walks available, as well as drop in visits as required. When housesitting, the dog will get atleast 2 walks a day and fed at their regular intervals. I will only walk off lead if the client feels comfortable with me doing so and I have built that trust with your pup.
“Brittany looked after our cat Baker for two weeks. She’s been accommodating (e.g. stayed at our house for the first few nights to make sure Baker was adjusting well to us being away and even took him on walks - he’s like a little dog!) and took great care of Baker while we were away. She also sent us updates and pictures every day, which made us really happy and reassured us! We came back to a clean house and a happy cat! We will definitely ask her to look after Baker in the future and recommend her to anyone who’s looking for a great pet sitter! :)”

“Joanna was very confident and caring with my nervous girl and was very keen to make sure Molly felt comfortable in her home. I appreciated the updates/photos to know everything was going well on their first day together!”
“Michael was a great choice for dog sitting Beans, and was very flexible with our changing plans. Beans had a great time. Would definitely book again if we’re in Whistler and recommend him to a friend.”
“Harvey enjoyed another great day with Vanessa! He got lots of walks, we got photos, and it was easy as always to coordinate pick up and drop off. Recommend for sure!”
“Carla and her family are a great choice for a pup sitter! They had my dog, Maudie, for 3 days over Spring Break while we skied. They were super flexible with dates and times and Maudie loved them! After the first day she was practically pulling me off my feet to get to their front door at drop off time. They took her for long walks and adventures and she came home tired at the end of the day! They obviously really love dogs and were a breeze to communicate with! Highly recommend.”
“Jenna was fantastic to work with. Our pup loved her and her communication was great. Would highly recommend to anyone looking for a reliable trustworthy pup sitter when in Whistler. Thank you”
“Sophie was wonderful! My Golden Retriever Jackson adored her. She was reliable,flexible,conscious and outstanding with communication. Also appreciated her partner Rob working with Jackson on leash walking. Would definitely recommend her to take care of your pet while in Whistler.”
About: I started pet-sitting when my beloved cat Briciola passed away. I was missing her so much but couldn’t get another cat as I was traveling all the time, so I posted an ad and had the chance to look after three adorable cats while I was studying in Bologna. When I first moved to Berlin I used to walk my host family’s dog Flora every morning and every noon. I would take her to the lake for a 20/30-minute walk. Last summer 2017 my mom and I rescued a little dog in Italy we named Gigio who’s now our sweetheart! He loves to go on the beach in the early morning to take long walks along the shore; he loves to play and he’s such a fountain of love and happiness. I’m currently working full time, so please, send me a message before booking service. I will do my best to accommodate your and your pet’s needs. I live in a fairly big apartment with my partner. We do not have a yard but a small balcony. We keep the door closed all times if pets are around. I also always make sure your pet is under my supervision .
“Amazing! Had a good feeling right away, was available on a short notice and most importantly: he was really sweet to our dog and gave him a small treat right away so he would walk with him :-) Thanks, Chad!”
About: My passion for dogs started at an early age as I grew up on a farm in the UK with seven dogs, a wonderful mix of working breeds like Labradors, collies and spaniels, plus a couple of spirited Jack Russell's who ruled the pack. Today, I share my home with Peanut, an 9lb Chihuahua who loves naps, sunshine, people and gets along well with other calm dogs. Over the years, I’ve cared for a wide variety of breeds and sizes—from toy poodles to Newfoundlands, pointers, Staffordshire bull terriers, and countless loveable mixes. This experience allows me to adapt to each dog’s personality and needs. What I Offer I work from home full-time, so your dog will never be left alone. Here’s what you can expect: ✔ Regular walks ✔ Playtime and enrichment activities ✔ Plenty of cuddles and companionship Whether your pup needs a calm, safe space or an energetic adventure, I’ll tailor their care to suit their temperament and preferences. Just let me know what makes your dog happiest. Please note: Due to the size of my small dog, I cannot accommodate dogs in my home that have a strong prey drive. Why Choose Me I’m trustworthy, attentive, and respectful. When house or dog sitting, I treat your home and pets as if they were my own—providing comfort, security, and privacy at all times. My goal is to deliver the 5-star level of care you expect for your beloved companion. ✅ Need a hand with your dog care? Let’s connect! I work from home so can offer all day companionship to your furry friend, plus regular walks and bathroom breaks. There is room in my office for them to hang out with me, or they can choose their favorite spot in the apartment. My schedule is mainly open on week days, but I can accommodate some weekends (advanced notice helps!), so please feel free to enquire about weekends even if they aren't showing. If you have specific directions and instructions to keep your dog safe or happy, I will ensure to follow these. I always use my intuition and experience with dogs to ensure they are happy and relaxed when in my care, whether that is sitting with them, giving them space, taking them for a walk, or anything else they may need. They are all individuals and I will always respect their boundaries to ensure they feel safe and relaxed.
“Eskel had a fantastic time with the family! Pick ups and drop offs were easy, and I got mini updates thought the day or at the end of the day. Esk would love to visit again!”
“This was my puppy's second time with Lauren and I think he had a great time. Lauren has a new puppy herself and the two puppies got along great, had some good playtime, and side-by-side walks. Lauren was super easy to communicate with and was very accommodating. Her care for dogs is clear and much appreciated.”
“We were visiting the area and had a few non-dog-friendly activities planned for the day, so we had to board our 9.5 year old pup for a few hours. Vanessa took great care of Frisko. He warmed up instantly to her when we met and looked calm and relaxed when we picked him up. She was also really flexible with schedule.”
About: I've been taking care of animals since I was a kid, walking dogs, pet sitting, feeding cats and peoples birds. I have also had my own pets since I was 5, including dogs, cats, hamsters, and birds. I take great pride in my genuine love and care for animals, and have been called the "animal whisperer" by many people. I have a knack for attracting animals to me because I believe they can understand how deeply I love them all. Whether they are young or seniors, I will take special care depending on their needs or limitations. I am currently taking time off from working in any fasted paced environment, so that I can tailor my schedule to walks, pet care, pet sitting, house sitting, while I enjoy the summer in Squamish. I have lots of availability and a flexible schedule to work around your needs, so you can be worry free while you're at work, away, or also enjoying life. I will cater the experience to the individual pet and their needs. I can handle pets that need to be crated at night, or not. I can handle pets that need strict med schedules, particular feeding needs etc. I have a fenced in backyard, so you can be worry free about your dogs. I am happy to pamper them at your house or mine, so I can accommodate many specific needs and their quirky personalities.

“Thanks for your afternoon with Max. Karen was a big help covering an afternoon walk and outing for our active pup. She was helpful with working out a schedule and getting a quick home visit in to introduce herself. We loved all the text and photo updates and will absolutely recommend and use her services again. Thanks so much. Max had a great time”
“Michael was the perfect solution when I was in a bit of a jam with my dog Sydney. Upon meeting Michael I had no issues leaving my dog with him. He communicated well and was on time for pick up and drop off. I highly recommend Michael!”
About: Hey :) I've lived in Whistler for just over 3 years, after moving from Cambridge (UK) and work for the mountain. I enjoy hiking, skiing and going to the gym on my weekend!

About: Hi! I’m an experienced animal caregiver who’s always loved being around pets of all kinds. I grew up with cats, dogs, and rabbits, and started pet sitting at 15, so caring for animals has always been part of my life. I have a Horse Specialist degree and have spent years working and living on farms and ranches, so I’m comfortable with everything from household pets to larger animals and different temperaments. I’ve also assisted vets with all kinds of treatments—from surgeries to smaller care like bandaging and injections—so I’m confident handling pets who need a bit of extra care. I truly treat every pet like my own and aim to make them feel safe, happy, and loved. I’d love to meet you and your pet! 😊 I currently work part-time, which gives me plenty of flexibility to adjust to your schedule and your pet’s needs. I have lots of time to play, care for, and give attention to your pet so they feel happy and comfortable. I’m based in Whistler and have my own car, making me reliable and able to travel easily. I’ll care for your pet either in your home or mine during the day, making sure they get lots of attention, play, and downtime. I’m a very active person and love being outside as much as possible, so walks and fresh air are always part of the routine. I live just a short walk from Alta Lake and have the Valley Trail right outside my door, which makes it easy to give pets plenty of fun, safe outdoor time.
“Ashley was great! She quickly accommodated a meet and greet, and took Jaxon out for two adventures with regular updates along the way including pics. I would definitely book Ashley again!”
About: I have looked after dogs and cats for many years. While I don’t have a dog at home currently (my last dog, Iggy, an Australian Kelpie passed away in March at 15 years old) I would like to welcome fur babies from time to time. I work part time from home so I have plenty of time to look after doggies. It’s just my 9 year old daughter and myself and we both adore 4 legged companions. I live on a quiet cul-de-suc with plenty of greenery and snow in winter with a dog park near by (walking distance). I offer plenty of short outdoor breaks or long walks (whatever the preference is). I can provide regular updates and plenty of pictures/videos. I am happy to look after senior dogs or puppies as I have experienced with both.

About: I have taken care of dogs ever since I was 10 years old. From feeding, walking and training my doggies, to family and friends relying on me to look after their pets whilst they are away! My schedule at the moment mostly consists of evening work when I am not skiing on the mountain! I am very flexible with timings around my evening work, and can make myself available for dog caring whenever is best suited to your needs I am a huge dog lover, looking to not only look after your furry friend but provide a-lot of love and affection! With 20+ years of animal care experience, 15 of which were with my own pups, I know how to care for dogs inside and outside of their home, interacting with other people and pets, and generally being aware of the care and understanding for each individual dog as every dog is different!
“Jade was awesome with Loki! She obviously loves dogs, and made Loki feel totally comfortable with her. She instilled me with confidence that she could handle my energetic girl, and they clearly had a great, long walk together. I will definitely ask her to walk Loki again!”
About: I’ve been around dogs for my whole life and love getting to know them. I have experience training a very timid and aggressive rescue dog. Pet car fits easily into my daily routine since I’m currently in between jobs and have a very flexible schedule. I love spending time outdoors so taking your dogs for walks would be a great addition to my day! I currently, unfortunately, don’t have a dog. But, I’m excited to fill the empty void with your doggo! I’m happy to follow your instructions to provide your preferred care for your dog.
About: I have over 9 years experience living with and taking care of family and friends dogs. I have cared for many dog breeds from large Mountain dogs to small Cavachon pups. I love to walk pups around the valley trail and forest trails that are close to my home, there’s also a number of dog parks nearby where the dogs can play off-leash. I work from home remotely, part-time and have a flexible schedule so I find it easy to fit in pet care. I am available weekdays and weekends. I live in an a-frame house, close to Creekside. My home has enough space for pups to play and relax. I am a 10 minute walk away from the dog park and forest trails.
“Sophie was awesome…! We brought 2 dogs up to Whistler - both above 80 lbs (doodle mix and Great Dane). She took them out together and they had a ball. What I appreciated most was that Sophie communicated consistently, was flexible when we asked for a longer day (hrs with both dogs), and they explored and adventures…! Our pets are family, and when we go away we want them to have fun, as well. Sophie asked great ?s in advance (not too many, tho) and was delightful. We would recommend Sophie!! ❤️”
About: Having already worked in doggy daycare and kennels in both the UK and Australia I have vast experience of working with all different breeds, big and small. Currently settled in Whistler for the winter, available for every service other than boarding. Different length walks available, as well as drop in visits as required. When housesitting, the dog will get atleast 2 walks a day and fed at their regular intervals. I will only walk off lead if the client feels comfortable with me doing so and I have built that trust with your pup.
About: Everybody wonders why I don’t have a dog. In my free time I walk dogs. They bring me so much joy. And they get me out and about. For the majority of my life I have had a dog. At this point in my life it’s not ideal as I use to and hopefully will travel again for work. I was a canine massage practitioner so your pet will get lots of good pets! I am very active and love discovering all the trails the Sea to Sky has to offer. I have lived in Whistler for 20 years and I am very familiar with the area. If would like to know more please let me know. Looking forward to meeting your furry family member(s). I work for myself so I have a very flexible schedule. I like morning adventures in the woods and maybe one in the afternoon as week! Depends on what the dogs needs! I like to meet the owner and the pets a few times to make sure the pets have time to adjust and the owners feel comfortable with me in their home taking care of their pets.
About: Hi, I'm Ingrid, a passionate pet sitter and dog walker with over 10 years of experience caring for dogs of all sizes and breeds. I’ve served many dog owners, offering personalized care that caters to each pet's unique personality and needs. Whether it’s helping anxious pups feel at ease or ensuring pets with special diets are happy and healthy, I go the extra mile to ensure your furry family members feel safe and loved while you're away. While traveling, I've had the opportunity to petsit and care for pets and homes across Canada, the U.S., and Australia, building trust with pet owners who value my reliability and genuine love for animals. Now based in beautiful Squamish, I live in a pet-friendly townhouse with plenty of space for playtime and relaxation. There’s also a peaceful park and a forest nearby where dogs can run and explore freely. I’m here to provide a safe, fun, and nurturing environment to your pet. I’d love the opportunity to meet your furry companions and give them the same love and attention they deserve! I'm quite active and enjoy regular walks throughout the day, which is even more enjoyable with a dog by my side! As a professional dog walker, I often take groups of up to six dogs on adventures in the mountains and forests. If there’s space available, your pup can join in on the fun! I also offer individual walks for dogs who prefer a quieter experience, so rest assured, I can accommodate their needs. I provide personalized pet care in both my home and my clients' homes, ensuring a safe and loving environment for every pet. In my home, I have a pet-friendly townhouse with ample space for play and relaxation, along with access to nearby parks and trails where we can explore together. When caring for pets, I prioritize their individual needs, whether that means adhering to specific dietary requirements, providing extra attention for anxious pets, or maintaining their usual routines. I also ensure that each pet feels secure and loved, whether they’re enjoying group walks on the trails or receiving one-on-one attention at home. Communication is key, so I keep pet owners updated with photos and messages to reassure them that their furry family members are happy and well cared for. My goal is to create a positive and nurturing experience for both pets and their owners.

“Karen was exceptional with our blizzard and kept him for an extra night. She took him on hikes and walks and helped with potty training. Sent us tons of photos and made blizzard feel like he’s part of the pack! They had a great time!! We will use Karen as our go to every time we are in Whistler!”
“Jade and her partner were incredibly caring with our pooch. They took her on lot's of adventures, and kept us updated with fun stories and pictures. When my flight was delayed they even went out of their way to make sure she got home safely at the end of her visit. Would love to have them take care of our girl again in the future!”
“Sona was super responsive and caring for our two senior pups. She sat with them while we skied and enjoyed Whistler. She made sure they were safe and happy. Would definitely recommend!”
About: I’ve loved caring for animals since I was a teenager, starting with my beloved sausage dog (even if some say they’re not “real” dogs!). Since moving to Whistler, I’ve regularly dog-sat for friends whenever they traveled and couldn’t bring their pups along. For the past two years, my partner and I have had a hedgehog, but since he’s nocturnal, I’ve definitely felt a bit of an “attention void” during the day—so I’d love to give your pet all the care and affection they deserve! I work from home as a sales rep for a pool construction company, and ever since COVID, all my meetings happen online, over the phone, or through email. That means I’m home most of the time, which makes it easy to give your doggie plenty of attention throughout the day! We live in a house with a spacious living room where pets can relax and feel at home when I’m pet-sitting. Our neighborhood is perfect for dogs, with dog parks and forest trails just a few minutes away—so your furry friend will get plenty of walks and outdoor time! Even while I’m working, I always keep an eye on them to make sure they’re safe, comfortable, and getting the attention they need.
“Carla, Jeremy, Poppy and Mavi were just amazing with Roxy. We could tell Roxy was getting as much love and attention as she does at home. We would highly recommend them to dog sit, dog walk or board anytime. Thanks so much. Roxy is looking forward to her next visit.”
“Damian was fantastic. This was the first time I have used Rover and left Lenny with a stranger. Damian was great with sending updates and pictures. Lenny is a high energy 2 year old Golden Retriever, he came back happy and tired. I would recommend Damian to anyone who is looking for dog care in Whistler.”
“Laurence and Charles were gentle and attentive with our older Golden, Molly. They picked her up, walked her often, gave her lots of love and snuggles and made us feel safe knowing Molly was well loved while we were away. Daily photos and updates really helped. Their interaction was kind, polite and very comforting. Highly recommend!!”
“Vanessa took amazing care of our Finnegan and sent us a bunch of photo updates throughout the day. We would definitely book with her again if we were visiting the Whister area ?”
“Amanda and Thomas took care of our dog Red for a day and night when we were out attending a wedding, and we could tell right from start that they are dog people and are super familiar with nervous/anxious dogs. They were both ready with treats for the intro with Red, which was super thoughtful! Red had a great vacation with Amanda and Thomas, felt right at home with them and enjoyed a hike! She was happy to see me when I arrived to pick her up but was also totally happy to stay with Amanda and Thomas. Looks like she had a great time and grateful to have connected with Amanda and Thomas at such short notice.”
About: We are an active couple with experience caring for a wide range of dogs, primarily medium to large breeds. We’re comfortable with multiple dogs, high-energy dogs, dogs in heat, and pets with medications or specific dietary needs. Living in Squamish, we love spending time outdoors and enjoy taking dogs on long walks, hikes, and adventures. Our flexible schedules allow us to provide plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship throughout the day. We take a patient, calm, and positive approach to pet care, focusing on trust, consistency, and making every dog feel safe, comfortable, and at home. Pet care fits very naturally into our routine. Amanda works just five minutes from home, allowing for regular check-ins throughout the day, while Drew is building his company remotely and has the flexibility to work from home. Safety is our priority. We pay close attention to traffic, wildlife, other dogs, and each dog's comfort level when we're out walking or exploring. Off-leash time is only done with the owner's permission and when it's appropriate for the dog's environment. Trust comes from following your instructions and putting your dog's needs first. We take the time to understand each dog's routine and personality so we can provide consistent care. Our goal is to make dogs feel relaxed, loved, and at home by maintaining their usual routines and providing plenty of attention, exercise, and care in a clean and comfortable environment.

About: Hi, I’m Rachel! I’ve spent my whole life around dogs and cats and love spending time in their company. I know how important it is to give pets not just care, but love, patience, and attention. I have owned my own dogs and cats and have worked with them professionally too, as a dog aquafit specialist in Vancouver. Now, i work from home in Squamish a few days a week, which means I can offer plenty of company, playtime, walks and snuggles. I also have a toddler who is very respectful of animals and loves being around them. Your pet will always feel safe and comfortable in our home.

I’m used to feeding, walking, playtime, and giving lots of affection throughout the day. Since I work from home a few days a week, I have the flexibility to provide companionship and regular check-ins. On the days I’m not home full time, I still structure my mornings and evenings around pet care, whether that’s longer walks, cuddle time, or keeping up with their routines. In my home, pets are treated like family. I make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and loved by keeping to their normal routines—whether that’s walks, playtime, feeding schedules, or quiet cuddle time. I’m attentive to their needs and always provide plenty of supervision, affection, and stimulation. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow your instructions closely to make sure your pet feels secure in their own environment. I maintain their regular schedule, give them lots of attention, and provide updates so you know how they’re doing while you’re away.
“Jenna and her partner were great with Kevin. He spent 3 days and 2 nights with them and seemed to settle in really well despite his anxious tendencies. We felt at ease while away knowing they were doting on him as much as we do. On pick-up day, the highway was backed up for hours but Jenna was happy to keep him longer until we could safely get to their house, which was so appreciated. Thanks Jenna!”
“Choose Kelly for her regular updates, adorable photos, and the frequent hikes in beautiful forested areas. My dog had the best time, and I had peace of mind knowing they were in great hands!”

As a dog walker, I take pups on fun hikes, blending work with love for dogs. My wife’s home to keep an eye on them, and our 5-year-old golden retriever loves making new friends.

My wife and son ensure constant care, and our golden retriever plays gently. Your pup stays happy and safe!
“Our dog Gus loved this stay with Tessy. He was socialized with other dogs, had plenty of activity and she was so flexible with his drop off and pick up times changing. I actually think this was Gus' favorite dog sitter to date.”
“Raffie had a great stay with Olivier and Marie! Raffie is an older pup, and requires a little more care but Olivier was on top of it. They were quick to respond, sent lots of pictures and flexible when it came to all of Raffie's needs. Highly recommend and looking forward to booking again!”
“Linley took such incredible care of my female Samoyed. I needed care for 4 days and felt completely at ease the moment I connected with her. She was fantastic at communicating the booking details / requests and kept me updated with photos throughout the time away. She look my pup on many walks and even treated her to a puppy doughnut at Fox & Oak. It was a great experience and I highly recommend her services!
