About: Hi! I am a lifelong animal lover with years of hands on experience caring for dogs of all shapes, sizes and personalities. I share my home with my 3 year old bulldog so I understand the important of exercise, enrichment, routine, and plenty of affection. Over the years, I've cared for many dogs and have been a go to pet sitter for friends and family when they've needed someone reliable to look after their pets. Whether its daily walks, playtime, feeding, administering basic care, or simply providing companionship, I treat every pet as if they were my own. I know how important it is to trust someone with your furry family member, and I take that responsibility very seriously. My goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, loved, and well cared for when you are not around, while giving you peace of mind knowing they are in good hands. I look forward to meeting you and your pet! I currently work as an auxiliary administrative assistant with The City of Campbell River so my schedule is always changing, I am often home for many days without working so caring for furry friends is the perfect way to pass the time. When caring for pets in their own home, I prioritize maintaining their usual routine to help them feel comfortable and secure. I ensure they are fed on schedule, have fresh water, receive exercise and companionship. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners can feel confident their pets are happy and well cared for.

“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.”

“Brynne responded right away to a short notice request to exercise kali for 3 days, 1 hour walks. She met up with my son the that evening for an introduction. Brynne was flexible with her schedule, professional and most of all Kali responded very well to her. Thank you 😊”

“Dana is wonderful with my dogs! She is an excellent communicator and so kind and gentle with my Pomsky and Corgi. She also gave thoughtful updates and pictures. We highly recommend her service!!”

“Amelia is very professional, reliable, and kind. I have a very sensitive and at times anxious pup, and Amelia took the time to come meet him prior so we knew it was the right fit. Amelia is extremely patient and positive with my dog and I would 💯 recommend her services :)”

“I definitely recommend Alexia to look after your pet - she is responsive, attentive, super considerate and kind. Her prior experience with reactive dogs was evident and she took great care of my dog Luke, who's a large anxious rescue with some big feelings!”

About: Hi, I’m Kenya :) Animals have always been a huge part of my life. I grew up caring for my grandparents chickens and sheep. I also raised a loving & energetic Wheaton Terrier, who lived to a happy old age, I am comfortable providing the care senior dogs need. I adopted and raised rescued small animals.. guinea pigs and rats have my heart. I am very familiar with the handling, cage cleaning, and environment enrichment needed in their lives for them to thrive! These days I share my home with a sweet cat, which means I’m very tuned in to the little quirks and routines that make cats feel secure and loved. Whether it’s a playful puppy, a senior dog needing a gentle walk, a cuddly cat, or small critters, I treat them all with the same love and care I’d want for my own. I run my own business and mostly work from home, with 1-2 days a week spent in a local business. This gives me a lot of flexibility to build pet care into my day, whether it’s walks, drop-ins, or having extra company while I’m home. Comfort and safety come first. I stick closely to routines so animals feel secure. I’m meticulous when it comes to details like feeding, medications, and exercise. I respect your space and follow instructions carefully so both you and your pets can feel at ease while you’re away.

Whether you’re looking for walks, drop-ins, or overnight care, I’m here to give your dog dependable care and give you peace of mind while you’re away. Pet care is a key part of my daily routine. I adjust my schedule to fit the specific needs of each pet, ensuring they stick to their regular routines comfortably at home. Early morning walks, timely meals, and evening play are all managed with ease. My flexible approach lets me provide attentive and reliable care, giving you peace of mind while you're away. When I'm caring for pets, safety and trust is a top priority. I keep a close eye on surroundings, making sure everything is secure and free of potential hazards. Your pet's well-being is always my main concern, so you can trust they'll be safe and happy under my watch.
About: I always dogsit our friends' dogs and I LOVE it. I have experience with animals that need special cares and I can manage a couch potatoes or an high energy pooch. I already walk or/and run daily with my dog. I have a big fence yard and work from home. My lifestyle fits well with having animals. I can have your furry baby for a few hours, days or weeks, depending on the fit and needs. I have two friendly animals (cat and dog).
“Cherese has been amazing. She’s incredibly accommodating (coming all the way to me in Cumberland from Merville, plus several other things!) and has a great understanding of dog behaviour. She has her own two pups, and made sure it was okay if she could bring one of them along for Alder’s walk. It’s clear she cares a lot for animals, and wants to ensure that her clients get solid feedback after every walk. Alder has seemed so much happier and fulfilled this week vs before the walks with Cherese. Very happy I found her profile :)”

About: I’ve grown up around dogs and have hands-on experience caring for puppies and adult dogs, including feeding, walking, playtime, and basic routine care. I’m attentive, patient, and make sure every dog feels safe, loved, and comfortable while in my care. I treat pets like family and always follow owners’ instructions closely. I work part-time as a Pilates instructor, which gives me a very flexible schedule and lots of free time for pet care. I’m available during weekdays, evenings, and most weekends, and I can easily adjust my schedule to fit walks, drop-ins, or longer stays. I prioritize safety, trust, and consistency in every home. I follow each pet’s routine closely, keep environments clean and secure, and provide attentive supervision, regular walks, playtime, and plenty of affection.

Ashley and Jeff have been amazing so far. They have been taking the time to get to know our two dogs, understand their personalities and support them and their quirks! Ashley and Jeff have been so patient, calm, and kind with our two dogs (one of whom is reactive and fearful of strangers… and the world). We appreciate them so much!
