About: Hi! I have over 10 years of experience caring for both dogs and cats. I grew up with a Dalmatian and have had several cats of my own over the years, so I’m very comfortable with both cats and dogs. I work from home part-time and generally have availability for lunch time drop ins or walks. I tend to be available on Mondays and occasionally on weekends. I am currently not offering pet sitting in my own home, but I do provide walks and drop-in visits to give your pets the attention and care they deserve.
“Kesi is gifted and she has a natural way with dogs. As many West Kootenay dog owners, I have rescue dogs. Kesi instinctually understood our youngest pup and responded to her perfectly! . Typically it takes at least 3 meet and greets for our dogs to warm up to strangers. Kesi had our pups trust by the second visit! We have already booked again! We highly recommend Kesi!”

About: I have always had pets… dogs, cats, llamas, iguanas to parrots and toucans and loved and spoiled them all passionately! You can relax while away, knowing your pet is content and cared for in the most loving way possible. I do prefer dogs to be 60 pounds or less. I am retired with lots of time to walk and play with your pets . I am live rurally, surrounded by nature, with a river at the back of my acreage and a rail/trail out front. I live on acreage. While your pet(s) is staying with me, he/she would always be leashed outside for walks. Inside however, my home would be their home and there'll be lots of cuddles and interaction.

Castlegar pet parents share their Rover experiences
Amanda was very responsive, kind, experienced and professional. We were so nervous to leave our fur babies at home but she sent us photo and text updates during each home visit which kept us at ease. She also went above and beyond providing extra enrichment for them to ease the transition. We will definitely be looking to work with her again in the future.

My cat accidentally got locked out of the house while I was away for work. As a very last min request, Courtney immediately went to check on the cat for me and made sure he could get in. It was a huge relief for me to have someone trustworthy to help me out. My cat loves her. Thank you !!
