About: 🏡 Home full-time • One pet family at a time • Fenced yard • Flexible daytime availability Hi! I’m Angela, and I’ve been a dog lover my entire life. The moment my husband Jesse and I had the chance to have dogs of our own, we jumped at it, times two! We were lucky enough to share our lives with two sweet Boston Terriers, who lived to 13 and 12.5 years old. Losing them left a huge emptiness in our home, and spending time with our neighbours’, friends’ and Rover dogs has helped fill that space. 🐾 Experienced with: • Anxious & reactive pets • Puppies & energetic dogs • Senior pets • Medication & additional care needs I’m comfortable caring for pets with all kinds of personalities and needs. I understand that some pets need extra patience, space or a quieter environment to feel comfortable, and I’m happy to adjust their care and routine based on what works best for them. You can expect me to care for your pet with the same love and attention I gave my own. For boarding and daycare, I only care for one pet family at a time, so your dog won’t be sharing our home with dogs from other households. This allows me to give them lots of individual attention and personalize their stay around their normal routine and needs. My goal is simple: to give you peace of mind while making your pet feel safe, comfortable and right at home. ❤️ 🐾 BOARDING AVAILABILITY: I currently offer boarding stays of **up to 10 nights**. If you’re looking for a slightly longer stay, feel free to reach out and we can chat about whether it’s something I can accommodate. At this time, I’m not offering extended boarding stays. 🐱 Cat Care: I love cats too! I grew up with cats in our home and have experience cat sitting for friends and neighbours. I’m happy to provide drop-in visits for feeding and fresh water, litter care, medication if needed, playtime and plenty of attention and cuddles for cats who want them. I’m home full-time and have lots of flexibility throughout the day for walks, drop-ins, daycare and boarding. I’m especially available during the day for regular weekday walks and drop-ins, including recurring weekly bookings. I’m also available mornings, evenings and weekends and can often accommodate last-minute requests. For dogs staying with me, being home throughout the day means plenty of attention, regular potty breaks, backyard time and the flexibility to follow your dog’s usual routine as closely as possible. 🐾 BOARDING AVAILABILITY: I currently offer boarding stays of **up to 10 nights**. If you’re looking for a slightly longer stay, feel free to reach out and we can chat about whether it’s something I can accommodate. At this time, I’m not offering extended boarding stays. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my priority. We have a fully fenced backyard and no pets of our own in the home. For daycare and boarding, I only accept one pet family at a time, so your dog won’t be sharing our home with dogs from other households. Our two pre-teen kids grew up with our Boston Terriers and understand how to respectfully interact with dogs and give them space when needed. I’m comfortable caring for anxious and reactive dogs, high-energy dogs, senior dogs, and pets who require medication or additional support. I’ll follow your pet’s usual routine and care instructions closely and adjust their environment, exercise and interaction based on their individual needs.
“Shawna is amazing!! She takes our dog on great walks, always gives feedback and photos. So flexible, communicative and reliable couldn’t ask for anything more! Would 10/10 recommend to anyone!”

About: IG/FB:wagbites_pet for more offer! I’ve had dogs since I was a kid and currently care for two — an Australian Shepherd and a Maltipoo. I’m experienced with both big and small dogs and treat every pup like family Pet care is a big part of my daily routine. I used to bring my dogs to work, and now that I work from home, I’m with them all day. I take them on trail walks every day and cook their meals myself, paying close attention to nutrition and balance. I care for pets with patience, love, and attention to their routine. At my home, pets get daily exercise, healthy meals, and lots of playtime. I keep things clean, calm, and safe. In a client’s home, I follow their care instructions closely to keep pets comfortable and happy, just like they’re with family.
About: Ever since I got my first cat at the age of 5 and my first dog at the age of 7 I’ve loved to care and watch a pet grow and change, both my dogs became more playful and happier as time went on, and it seemed like the walks and time spent together was just as fun for me as it was for them. Not only do I have experience in loving and taking care of my own pets, I’ve also done so with my clients’ pets, spending weeks at a time in their homes focusing on the pets’ needs and wants. I am available full time for pet care and walks, no matter the day of the week or time, your pet is certainly the priority. I spend as much time as necessary with the pet, whilst I enjoy that time myself, thinking of their well-being, all the fun they can have and as many walks as necessary.
About: Good with taking care of cats they make me happy they are so cute I enjoy their company I have taken care of lots of animals in the last few years I currently do not work right now I'm on disability so the extra cash would be great it fits into my daily routine well thanks I currently don't have any pets right now but I take care of the animals love them feed them play with them and generally enjoy pets in general
About: I was born into a home with dogs, have always had them and have rescued, raised and cared for several Dogs and other pets for over 30 years back home. We did not have 24 hour pet care provisions so my family and I had to sometimes give pets urgent care ourselves. I have cleaned and dressed wounds, delivered puppies and much more. Canines are THE absolute best. I adore them..most times more than people ;), but do not have any pets right now; this feels like a great way to contribute to our community and fill the dog shaped hole in my heart. I am a performing artist and am currently working part-time, so I have plenty of flexibility and lots of time for your precious fur babies. Although I board one dog at a time, I am happy to take multiple dogs if they are from the same family/household. I live very close to Coquitlam centre and there are several parks, trails and the river close by where I can take them to play etc.
“Anique is a pleasure to work with. She met with us at our home to get acquainted, and great a good job walking our dog, showed up on time and was always quick to communicate over the app. Would be happy to work with Anique again!”

About: I’m an experienced dog owner with a genuine love for animals and a strong understanding of their needs. Having cared for my own dogs and others for years, I’m comfortable with daily routines including feeding, walking, administering basic medications, grooming, and reinforcing training commands.

Moose goes out 4 times a day and we are centred around adventure and outdoors! Please note dogs who stay with us over weekends and holidays will be coming on road trips and hikes in beautiful BC!

About: I have over 20 years experience caring for cats and have taken care of cats of all ages, from kittens to senior cats. I’m very comfortable around cats and am regularly trusted to care for my friend’s cats. I often work from home and have a very flexible schedule. I’m available the majority of evenings and weekends and don’t typically go away during holiday weekends. I like to spend time with the cats I visit to make sure they get attention and feel comfortable with me. I’m happy to keep up whatever routine they have so they’re life isn’t too disrupted by their owners not being there.
About: My name is Lynzie. I have been a passionate dog parent and caregiver for over 10 years, with experience handling dogs of all ages, sizes, and special requirements. My journey began with my very first rescue—a Weimaraner born with a disability, which taught me early on the deep patience, gentle handling, and specialized care every unique pet deserves. Over the years, I’ve opened my heart and home to many furry friends in need: Senior & Special Care: I have lovingly cared for a dog through their golden years up to age 17, as well as taken in a rescued senior Pomeranian who needed a quiet, attentive home. I’m very comfortable with senior pet routines, medication administration, and extra TLC. Multi-Pet Management: I am no stranger to managing a big fur family! At my peak—while pregnant with my son—I seamlessly cared for three large dogs and four cats all at the same time. Whether your pet needs playful energetic walks, patient care for physical limitations, or specialized attention for seniors, I bring decades of real-world experience and genuine love to treat your fur babies like my own family. I work from home with a highly flexible schedule (outside of my son's routines), which allows me to easily adapt my daily flow to accommodate your pet's needs and preferences. When caring for pets in your home, my top priority is maintaining their normal daily routine so they feel safe, comfortable, and stress-free while you’re away. Customized Routines: I strictly follow your instructions for feeding, walking, play, and specialized care. Home Security & Cleanliness: I respect your space as if it were my own. I keep the area clean, secure doors/gates/windows, bring in mail or packages, and ensure your home stays tidy and well-cared for. Communication & Peace of Mind: You’ll receive updates with photo and video reports at my each visit, so you always know how your fur babies are doing. Calm & Adaptable Care: With years of experience with pets of all temperaments, I take time to build trust naturally—never forcing interactions with shy or independent pets.
About: Hi there, I've grown up always having and loving dogs. I believe our four legged friends are part of the family, and deserve to engage and experience things beyond the walls they call home. I'd love to spend time socializing and exercising your pups while you're away doing what humans do! I'm currently working scattered 12 hours shifts (days and nights), so I'm available lots of random week days and typically for long periods of time. I also have an 11 year old female lab retriever who I walk regularly day and night, so ideally on days I'm working your pups can join us on our regularly scheduled walks. I will treat your pups with the same love and care I treat my own with. I am familiar with how dogs communicate and and empathetic towards dogs with special care instructions. I always make sure activities are safe and appropriate for the dogs in my care.
About: I've taken care of dogs since my childhood, where I grew up in a house with 3 dogs. Now I care for an English Bulldog that's 9 years old I am not working at the moment and have a free schedule with plenty of time either for walks or drop in visits Monday through Friday I live in a spacious condo with a nice and sunbathed balcony, with direct access to nice trails for walking and a friendly English Bulldog to make your dog company.
About: I have worked at a rescue, as well as in ER/ICU. Those jobs have given me hands on experience for giving oral/injectable medicine, as well as what to do in emergencies. I am very interested in dog training and behaviour, and firmly believe in fear free approaches. I have experience with puppies and senior dogs, and know how to handle any temperament or size. I have also worked with guinea pigs, rabbits, birds (large and small), mice, and reptiles. Legal name is Marina for Rover but I go by Spencer Rover is my full time work, so I am available for whenever needed, barring overlapping visits. I am able to go between houses during the day. I will adhere to instructions left by owner(s), as well as respect that I am in your home. I will make sure your dog feels safe and comfortable, and like they have an extra friend to help them while you are away.

About: Animals have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I grew up on a farm, where caring for animals wasn’t just a responsibility, it was a way of life. Over the years, I’ve also shared my home with beloved dogs and cats of my own, giving me a deep understanding of the love, patience, and consistency they need to feel safe and happy. I know that every pet has their own personality, routine, and comfort level, and I take the time to understand the animals, emotional, and physical needs and adapt accordingly. As an experienced Airbnb host, I understand the importance of respecting your home as carefully as I care for your pets. Whether your companion needs energetic walks, gentle companionship, playtime, or quiet cuddles, I tailor my care to their individual needs. I am comfortable administering medications as directed, monitoring your pet for any changes in health or behaviour, providing wound care, and skilfully and confidently following veterinary instructions after appointments or treatments. My goal is simple: to ensure you return home to happy, healthy pets and a home that has been cared for with the same attention and respect I bestowed on my Short term rental property. I have the experience and expertise to handle any event that occurs in a capable calm manner. This is my retirement job and I’m so excited about it. It is in my nature to nurture animals homes, and of course, my kids and grandkids. I am a positive influence and addition in any role that I take on. This is also an opportunity for me to be active and connected, which is very important to me. Pets are best served by being in their own space where they are familiar and comfortable. Walks are provided that are adventurous or calm, depending on the needs of my current walking companion. Attention to detail will be provided in their maintenance feeding routine and healthcare guidelines provided by their owner and or veterinarian. I am skilled at administering medication and providing wound care.
About: What sets me apart as a pet sitter is my deep empathy for animals and a unique skill set. I have extensive experience training puppies, helping them develop good behaviors from a young age. Additionally, I'm well-versed in providing gentle care and attention to senior pets, ensuring their comfort and well-being. My dedication to understanding each pet's individual needs and going the extra mile to make them feel loved and secure truly sets me apart. I work from home and working from home gives me extra free time to seamlessly integrate pet care into my daily and weekly routine, ensuring their well-being. I provide dedicated in-home pet care by following the specific instructions provided by the client. This includes feeding, providing fresh water, administering medications if needed, ensuring playtime and exercise, and maintaining a clean and comfortable environment for their pets. My goal is to create a stress-free and loving atmosphere for their furry companions while the client is away.
About: I've loved dogs and animals in general for as long as I can remember, and I can confidently care for dogs and cats, among other animals (my partner is very into exotics!). As well, my partner is a certified vet tech in-clinic so your pet(s) will be in great hands! We often arrange nail trims, for example, while we watch pets. :) Right now I'm in-between jobs so my availability is very open! I'm available just about all day for house-sits, drop-in visits, and dog-walking. Let me know how I can help you and your furry friend(s)! I love going for after-dinner walks to get fresh air as well as spontaneous walks throughout the day so your dog(s) will get plenty of fresh air and exercise. I also enjoy interacting with animals as I walk by and move around my home so they're sure to get lots of attention. I can also easily crate your dog if needed.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Coquitlam
Sam helped us take care of our dog, Milo for 2 weeks. She came twice a day to take Milo out for potty breaks and also to feed him. She also helped us brush Milos teeth and cleaned his ears. We could tell that Milo really enjoyed Sam’s company and that he was really well taken care of. She sent us updates during each visit and spent time playing with him and giving him nose work treats. We are thankful to Sam for her care and love for Milo!

Victoria has helped me walk and care for my dog Reggie over the last few months. My dog absolutely adores her. She is a true animal lover at heart which shows in the attention and care she provides. Victoria is reliable and responds promptly to message. I would highly recommend Victoria for dog sitting and walking.

I had a very good experience with Elke. She has the knowledge, experience, and patience to deal with dogs. My dog was not an easy case. A four-year-old husky that does not trust others easily, but Elke earned his trust quickly. She is accurate and plans very well. Overall, I recommend her.

Taryn is absolutely incredible with my puppy. She began walking my pup two days after I rescued her as I work full-time out of the home. At that time, I didn't have a lot of first hand information about my pup to provide her with, but she took every walk with stride. She provides updates and has been able to meet the needs of my puppy in terms of going on a walk, staying inside to play, and potty breaks. I would recommend Taryn to everyone due her in natural instincts with puppies and dogs.

Tatyanna is a wonderful Dog Specialist. I would even say that this is the best sitter that Bruno(my furry baby) and I have ever had! She took preparation so seriously, and visited our place a few times to get to know Bruno and his behaviour pattern/habits better. Tatyana was sending me pictures and videos daily when she was at our place and reporting how Bruno felt and how everything was going. She even watered my plants, which was just amazing! :) In a nutshell, I would definitely recommend Tatyana if you need a warm, kind, responsible and experienced specialist to look after or train your dog :)

We hired Vivian to walk our dog, Hazel, for 3 weeks while we were away. Vivian was absolutely wonderful with Hazel. She is a very kind, compassionate person and truly cares about dogs. Hazel looked forward to her walks each day and enjoyed all the new places that Vivian took her to explore. I would not hesitate to book Vivian again for walks or boarding while we are away. I would highly recommend her! Thank you, Vivian.

Stephanie was great! I have a big dog full of beans and she seemed to have no issue handling him. Stephanie was very flexible with schedule changes, she was always on time, kept in communication and kept me updated. If I hadn’t moved, I would keep Stephanie as my dog walker! She really helped keep my boy tired and happy! I would recommend her to anyone!

Victoria has been working with our puppy for several months now and has been such an awesome help. Our boy adores her and can't wait for his walks with her. She is patient, kind, and helps keep his training consistent. She has also been very accommodating and helped us find other dog walkers on days she was unavailable, and is always reliable and easy to communicate with!

What a relief to be able to trust someone so completely to come to our house each day we were on vacation, to take our dogs for a walk! Nathan made sure our dogs were well exercised and safe in our absence and we’re delighted to know we can count on him in future too!

London was wonderful with Simba! He was reliable, communicative, and clearly cared a lot about him. Simba was happy and well taken care of, and I really appreciated the updates. I would definitely book with London again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy dog walker!
