Dog Walkers in Campbell River

“I've not had the pleasure to meet Erica in person but she responds quick and saved me in a pinch as I needed someone to walk my dog and I live in an area that requires crossing bridges so it can be a challenge finding someone. She also updates in a timely manner and writes a good debrief. I look forward to using her services again soon.”

“I was feeling a little worried about how Milo would react going out without me and very pleasantly surprised that he didn’t act up. Just a bit resistant but went along. Bailey is calm and talks in a nice tone to Milo. He didn’t have cause for alarm because of everything being low key and matter of fact. I’m very impressed with Bailey. He’s a very personable young man. I’m having him come tomorrow as well. I think Milo will soon really look forward to going out with Bailey.”

About: My name is Kim and I"m an avid daily walker and I've always loved having a dog to walk with. I do love to walk fast, but will slow my walk down if your dog is a slower walker. I'm retired so I have plenty of time to help out if you need pet care. We no longer have any dogs of our own, but I've had dogs for over 25 years so I'm very experienced. Our pets were a black lab, named Murphy and Max, our yorkie. (Pictured in photos) I would love to walk your dog or help with check-ins. Unfortunately, I'm allergic to cats. Dogs usually connect with me, as they love my high-pitched voice and my bubbly personality. Lol I believe in positive reinforcement with dogs (and humans) and will always pack treats with me. I will make sure your pet is always leashed, well taken care of and most importantly, has some fun whilst out exercising. Your dog will receive individual care and attention. I'm retired, so I have plenty of time to help with your pets. I'm very organized and efficient, and it's important for me to bond with your dog. Our pets have always been a huge part of our family. Even sleeping with us. We have a big fenced yard, for your dog to play. But we always have dogs inside with us. I've always given our dogs, plenty of exercise, and because of that they've been extremely well behaved. Both of our dogs knew every trick.

“Isabella was a fantastic dog sitter. Cody went back happy and tired. Thank you Isabella doing such a great job. I would definitely recommend her for your dog care.”

Whether you're heading out for a weekend or an extended trip, you can count on me to keep your pets happy, healthy, and loved—just like you would.

“Arrived on time and Cosmo had a great time! Matthew paid special attention to Cosmo’s needs and I can very grateful. Would definitely book with Matthew again!”

About: I am an animal lover, advocate and lifelong dog owner. Dogs have been an important part of my life since I was a child. Their unconditional love, loyalty and companionship bring me the greatest joy in life and I've always treated my dogs like family. I am attentive to their needs and comfort while providing routine, exercise and of course lots of love. I have years of volunteer experience with Therapeutic Paws of Canada. I recently lost my beloved Golden Retriever and am not quite ready to get another so when I have availability, I love spending time with other dogs. 😊 With only your dog as my sole companion on walks, they have my full one on one attention. Especially suited for dogs who are not able to join the local pack dog walkers. This service and rate is for a full 30 minute walk. I can also extend this to a 60 minute walk and take up to two dogs from one home together. I have recently moved to a new home in Campbell River and so I have transitioned to dog walking only rather than boarding in my home.

About: I’m a 30 year old full time working professional who has a passion for caring for animals. I started pet sitting years ago for a family friend and have turned it into something I do regularly. I’ve always loved animals (especially dogs) but I’ve unfortunately never been able to have my own, and believe that is partially why caring for animals as if they were my own comes so naturally to me. Just like your four-legged friend I hate being cooped up inside all day and enjoy going for walks. Besides taking your pup on walks I couldn’t help but give them all the love and pets they deserve. I would care for your pet as if it were my own, so I can’t make any promises about not falling in love with them! I know how important it is to have someone you trust looking after your pets and home while you’re away, and I take that responsibility seriously. My goal is to provide peace of mind so you can travel knowing your furry (or feathered, or scaly) family members are in good hands. Feel free to check out my Facebook page ‘Campbell River House Sitting and Pet Care’ I’m a full-time working professional. Most days working from 5 AM to 1:30 PM. Happy to play, and stay active with your animals every evening. The safety and happiness for both owners and pets is most important to me. I ensure to follow all directions precisely. From keeping doors shut to daily check-in’s.

“Catherine was great. Always very punctual and our dog was excited to go for a walk with her each day. I would recommend Catherine to anyone who needs their dog walked!”

“We hit the jackpot hiring this AMAZING couple. 😁 Michelle walked our dog twice today and once yesterday at the requested times; which were both super hot days and she was ABSOLUTELY AMAZING with our dog. She not only treated her so well but took such good care of her and allowed her to get her energy out during the long walks she took her on. We honestly couldn’t say enough good things about how WONDERFUL Michelle is with animals and as a person period. WE HIGHLY RECOMMEND HER TO ANYONE NEEDING DOG CARE/WALKS. She is also amazing at training dogs which was a bonus! THANK YOU SO MUCH MICHELLE🙏🏽😁🩷”

About: After 14 years of caring for my yellow lab Jack, I fell in love with dogs. Due to Jack crossing the rainbow bridge recently; I'm looking to get my "dog fix" while helping other members of the community! About me...I'm a fairly active person, I love to go on runs and challenging hikes. However, I easily adapt for the dog's needs. Just a chill walk by the lake? Totally cool. Running the trails of the Alberni Inlet Trail? Count me in. Don't have time to walk your dog after a long day at work? I'll be there! I'm hoping you value your pet's safety, wellbeing and happiness as much as I do, because your dog deserves it all. Looking forward to hear from you soon! Pet care fits seamlessly into my routine as I work from home full-time in Campbell River, allowing me to be flexible and available throughout the day. While I have an additional job on some weekday evenings, I can easily work around it to meet your pet’s needs. With enough notice, I’ll do my best to accommodate any schedule or special requests! In my home, it’s a relaxed environment with an indoor cat who mostly keeps to herself, ensuring visiting pets have a peaceful stay. When caring for pets at your home, I always prioritize their comfort and well-being, and I make sure to leave your space clean and tidy. My goal is to make sure pets feel at home, whether they’re with me or in their own familiar surroundings.

About: I have a wealth of experience being with dogs as I have been raised by my parents who are dog breeders and annual avid dog show competitors. I love going for walks with these 4 legged friends and enjoy their company throughout the day and night. I make sure they are fed well, had a good exercise for the day and are clean when I am with them. Looking for someone who is reliable, clean and will be compassionate towards your loved one? You can count on me. I work part time online, roughly 4 hours per day, during the week so I can easily fit in the rest of my day being with your pet. I will make sure I understand the boundaries of your place and what the characteristics and personality of your pet. I will make sure your pet is leashed when going for walks unless you say it is not necessary and will make sure your pet is happy throughout the time I am with him/her.

About: Looking forward to helping out some locals with their pet care needs. Available for dogs big and small.

As I dog owner I am attuned to overseeing and monitoring pets, its second nature to keep an eye on things and my priority is safety above all else.
