Pet Sitting in Burnaby

About: I worked for about 2 years in a dog daycare, so I’m used to being around different types of dogs and handling them safely in busy environments. I also helped with dog rescues back in Colombia, where I fostered dogs and supported organizations that care for stray animals. That experience taught me a lot about patience and understanding dogs with different personalities. I really just love being around animals and making sure they feel safe and cared for Right now I have a flexible schedule, so I’m available most days for walks and drop-in visits. I’m reliable and can adapt to your pet’s routine, and I’d love to make caring for dogs part of my daily life. I currently live in a rental where pets aren’t allowed, so I don’t offer care in my home. However, I’m happy to provide dog walking and drop-in visits in your home.

About: I've been pet sitting for the last 7 years and have experience sitting dogs and cats, but open to taking care of other furry friends! I work fully remote, so I have the flexibility to be available and present anytime! When I am pet sitting, I prioritize the needs of the pet and work around their schedule. I love walking and enjoy getting outside throughout the day, so daily walks is a must for me. When it comes to being a guest in someone's home, I take this responsibility very seriously. I am extremely conscientious and responsible, and will always inform the homeowner should I have any concerns or questions. That said, I've never had any concerning incidents or issues during my years of house/pet sitting.

About: About Dog: I am the proud 'mom' of an 11.5-year-old Siberian Husky who is still thriving, energetic, and healthy. Raising a high-energy breed into their senior years has taught me everything about scientific nutrition, joint care, and the importance of a balanced lifestyle. My approach is rooted in Positive Reinforcement and 'loving boundaries.' I believe that every pet deserves a caregiver who understands their unique personality and physical needs. Whether it’s managing a senior dog's delicate routine or handling the boundless energy of a younger pup, I have the patience and expertise to ensure they feel safe and loved. When your furry friend is with me, they aren't just being 'watched'—they are being cared for with the same scientific rigor and deep affection I give my own senior boy. About Cat: While my personal journey with cats began three years ago, my expertise rivals decades of experience due to the intensity and depth of my training. I successfully rescued a day-old kitten abandoned by its feral mother—a challenge that required around-the-clock dedication and specialized medical knowledge. In those critical early weeks, I functioned on minimal sleep, bottle-feeding every two hours and manually managing her body temperature with heat bottles every four hours before professional equipment arrived. I personally navigated every milestone: from her very first assisted elimination and the falling of her umbilical cord to her first time opening her eyes and the transition to solid food. Through this 'trial by fire,' I became an avid student of feline behavior and health. I have spent countless hours researching veterinary-grade resources and books to master feline habits, nutrition, and common health issues. Whether your cat is a playful kitten or a sensitive adult, I offer a level of vigilance and intuitive care that only comes from saving a life. I am fully confident in providing a safe, knowledgeable, and nurturing environment for your feline family members. As I am currently dedicated to full-time home-based pet care, I am available 24/7 to provide your furry family members with undivided attention. Whether they need frequent potty breaks, specialized medical monitoring, or simply constant companionship, I have the luxury of time to ensure they never feel lonely. Your pet’s routine will be my top priority, and I am always here to provide real-time updates and peace of mind. Safety is my absolute priority. Having raised a senior Siberian Husky and rescued fragile neonatal kittens, I am deeply attuned to creating a secure, hazard-free environment. In my home (or yours), I maintain a 'safety-first' protocol: • For Dogs: I perform regular perimeter checks of fenced areas and ensure all walking gear (harnesses/leashes) is double-checked before heading out. I am experienced in identifying subtle signs of stress or discomfort. • For Cats: I am an expert in 'cat-proofing'—ensuring no toxic plants, small swallowable objects, or unsealed windows are accessible. • Health & Hygiene: I follow strict sanitization routines, especially for kittens or senior pets with sensitive immune systems. I am also trained to administer medications and monitor health vitals. You can trust that your pet will be supervised with the vigilance of a professional caregiver, ensuring they are not just comfortable, but entirely safe.

About: (Hi! You can call me Kelly if my legal name is a bit hard to read ;D) Hello! I am a Burnaby resident who is looking for cat-care, dog walks, and any pet boarding! I grew up with a pet cat at home and I am very experienced in taking care of pets (always helping my friends with their cats/dogs), the longest pet sitting I have ever had was with a cat for two months. My schedule is flexible, please don't hesitate to let me know when you are in need! I am currently working part time Monday, Tuesday, and Saturday and at home all day on the other days. I’m very flexible on my schedule and time for pet care. I live in a basement with one roommate and the house has a big backyard. Cats are totally acceptable but I cannot host any dog inside, I’ll play with the dog in the backyard or in the nearest dog park. I am also happy to be boarded at the client's home.

“Angela did an excellent job caring for our kitties while we were away. She supplied great photos; we could tell that our cats were having a lot of fun playing with her. Sometimes when we return from trips they are grumpy because we have been away. That was not the case this time! They clearly felt very comfortable in her care. That definitely made it easier for us to be away. We were so pleased with Angela and highly recommend her!”

“Tanya did an amazing job taking care of our 2 dogs. One of our dogs is younger and healthy, but our senior dog who is nearly blind needed an eye drop, oral medication and to be taken for a potty break. Tanya did a great job balancing the dogs needs and making them comfortable. We came home to very happy and well taken care of dogs. Would definitely book with her again in the future.”

Over the years, I have gained experience caring for animals and have developed patience and compassion for their needs. I have also been a caregiver for seniors, which has strengthened my responsibility and attention to detail. Currently, I have two cats that I take care of mostly, ensuring they are fed, groomed, and happy. I truly enjoy spending time with animals and providing them with love and care.

“Lauren is excellent. She went above and beyond for my cat. She was genuinely concerned for his well being and made her morning visit far earlier than I would have dared to ask. She also made herself available for an extra visit in case my travel plans were changed. I will definitely call on her again.”

About: From a young age, I have been immersed in caring for animals, especially cats. Growing up on a farm where we bred cats, dogs, and rabbits and raised chickens, I learned early on how to connect with animals on a deep, soulful level. My father, who worked in various animal-related roles, taught me the importance of treating all animals with respect and love as equals to humans. I've cared for cats and kittens since I was a child, and my mom lovingly called me "the cat dad" because of my innate ability to understand them. This lifelong experience has instilled in me a compassionate approach to pet care. As someone who works from home, I have plenty of time and flexibility to care for your furry friends. Whether you need daily visits, extended stays, or just someone to check in on your cat while you're away, I'm here to provide reliable and loving care whenever you need it. Your cat’s well-being is my priority, and I’m available to accommodate a wide range of schedules. When your cat is in my care, their safety and comfort come first. My home is a hazard-free environment where your pet can relax and feel secure. I understand how to create a calm and stress-free environment. Whether it’s providing the right food, plenty of fresh water, or cozy spots for naps, I take every detail into account. You can trust that your cat will receive attentive and loving care while you're away.

About: Born and raised in Vancouver. I’m a working professional in the Brentwood, Burnaby neighborhood. I live alone in my apartment that I own. My last dog, Carrie sadly passed away from old age in 2022 after happily living for 14.5 years. I do not presently have my own animal. With my new job, unfortunately it doesn’t allow me to be at home as much as I would like to be to care for another dog. Therefore, I’m using this opportunity on Rover to spend quality time with other dogs. I’m truly a dog person.. I love dogs more than I like people! My favourite movie growing up was Air Bud and I always wanted a dog ever since. I think about dogs too often for someone who currently doesn’t have a pet! I am hoping to meet some of your dogs in the neighborhood. I live close to a couple of dog parks, as well as large grass areas near by my home. I also own a car and can drive if necessary. I am primarily available weekends and evenings. Tuesdays/ Wednesdays are my work from office days, but I may be flexible to shift my in-office days. My home is always clean and tidy free from any food debris or dangerous objects on the floor that an animal can get to. So that’s chocolate, garlic, etc. As well, toxic plants will be put away ahead of time during time of care of your animal.

“Yiran is such a fantastic cat sitter. She was incredibly attentive to both our resident cat and her foster brother, and it was clear right away how comfortable and caring she is with cats. Yiran followed all guidelines perfectly, including administering medication, feeding routines, and making sure they got plenty of playtime and affection. She also kept us updated with thoughtful messages and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. We came home to calm, happy cats and a clean space.
