“Erika was fantastic right from the first meet and greet! Our pup created some challenges for her since she has abandonment issues and is very attached to me. Erika provided a safe and loving environment where Lily felt safe. She provided pictures and feedback every day. When we picked Lily up after a 4 day holiday, she was content and obviously well cared for. We will definitely trust Erika with Lily in the future!! Thank you Erika for allowing us to have a stress free get away :)”


“Leigh-Ann was so great! Leading up to the stay in Leigh-Ann’s home we were a bit nervous about leaving our little 7 month old dachshund on her first overnight stay without us, but we needn’t have been - we had a great experience, Leigh-Ann made the initial meetup seemless and sent updates throughout their 4 days together so we were able to relax knowing she was in good hands!!”


“She was an amazing keeper for my baby! He has his own room and can Go outside every day on the terasse! Amanda is so kind!!! She’s wait for me very late in the night at my return and Thank you so Much for that flexibility!”


“First time leaving deuce with someone other then friends or family. Got lots of pictures and updates throughout the stay. Got to go and do a meet the day before and see where deuce would be staying. You could really tell deuce felt at home there and was well taken care off. Made leaving him so much easier”


“Kesi was great to deal with! Very accommodating and reliable. Daily updates let me know how my boy was doing and put my mind at ease. Very pleased with the level of care provided while I was away. 10/10 recommend. Thank you again, so much!”


“Professional, knowledgeable, and quality care for our dog! This isn't your average dog boarding- Roberta provided a loving and safe environment for my large dog (90 lbs), in her home. She requested key info on my dog's feeding, health and behaviour, and provided updates and pics almost every day during our dog's boarding. So grateful our dog was not lonely and so well looked after!”


“I recently had the pleasure of having Bob watch my fur baby, Elliot, for a two-night stay, and I couldn't be happier with the care that he provided. Bob was an absolute joy to work with from start to finish, and his love for dogs is evident in how he treated our fur baby. From the moment we dropped off Elliot, Bob made us feel at ease with his welcoming personality. It was clear that Bob took the time to get to know Elliot and catered to her needs. We came back to a very happy dog, who clearly had a great time with Bob. Overall, I would highly recommend Bob to anyone in need of a dog sitter. We will definitely be using him again in the future. Thank you, Bob, for taking such great care of Elliot!”


About: I’m an experienced veterinary assistant who loves the outdoors. I have been around animals my whole life and practiced my vet assistant skills by volunteering in Mexico at spay and neuter clinics. I will treat your dog or cat as if they were my own. I have my own vehicle and I own my own home. Your pet will be in great hands 😊 I work for the Whistler Blackcomb Events department in the winter and in the summer I landscape. I have had both of these jobs for 4 years, since moving to Whistler. I am free in the evenings and days off will be devoted to your pet. I am an early riser, up for walks, always making sure your pet has ample outside time. My house is cozy and clean. I allow pets on my couch, as long as that is the same treatment they get at home.

About: Hi! My name is Rosa. I have lived with and cared for many dogs and cats, and done regular dog walking for many years. I have an intuitive relationship with animals - always creating a safe and nurturing environment for them. I look after any pet as if its my own - showing respect along with healthy boundaries. I am happy to take dogs on walks wherever you prefer and have a car so can head out to various locations outside of Nelson, as needed. Communication and trust are important to me, so I will happily call and provide updates, photos, and videos of your precious dogs and cats while pet sitting! I am very happy to adapt to whatever situation and your needs, so please get in touch if you would like to discuss anything further or if you have any questions at all! I'm currently working part-time / self-employed, so I will have ample time to care for your precious furry friends and be on a fairly flexible schedule for walks and feeding. Also looking for opportunities for long-term pet and house sitting from September onwards. In your home, I will carefully adhere to whatever safety precautions you have in place to protect your precious dogs and cats - be it keeping gates, doors or windows shut and crating when necessary. I am very attentive! I can send regular photo or video updates - just let me know what you need! I can only pet sit at your home, although doggy day-care is available in our large garden - which is fenced, with ample shade under a big magnolia tree, and grassy area to play on, we have a trampoline which the doggos love to nap under too!

“Mackenna was amazing. She took great care of Casper and communicated and sent pictures of their adventures which was much appreciated. She took him for walks and helped to coordinate an easy pickup in Nelson. She went above and beyond in her care for him. I would highly recommend her!”


About: Hi there! My name is Emily. I work full time at the hospital and my schedule allows me to have many weekdays days off. I grew up with golden retrievers and most recently rescued a 2 year old lab/husky mix of my own named Bee. She’s timid at first but is great with dogs. She loves to hang out on the couch at home. Looking forward to boarding/walking your pet and introducing Bee to new friends! Schedule fluctuates based on work schedule. Please see calendar for availability. Boarding and doggy day care depend on schedule. Can’t consistently commit to the same weekday Lots of hang out time. Backyard fence is only partially closed off. Dogs will remain on leash at all times unless otherwise indicated by owner!
