Dog Walkers in Duncan

“Marika has cared for my dogs on numerous occasions and I find her to be extremely responsible and loving . My dogs adore her and consequently, I have no worries when they are with her, as I know they are safe and loved. I would recommend her highly.”

“Heather and her boys were a wonderful team with our big, energetic puppy. Their experience with their own big dogs made them an ideal fit for us. They gave us total peace-of-mind and I highly recommend them. I'll definitely use them again.”

“I was very hesitant to leave my beloved dog because she takes awhile to warm up to people, but I had no reason to worry! Kathryn was an amazing pet sitter! She won my dog over completely right away! My dog fell in love with her and even looked for her around the house the first few mornings after I returned from my trip. Kathryn sent me updates and video each day which helped to keep me relaxed to know my dog was so well looked after. I would 1000% have Kathryn pet sit again and I can recommend her highly.”

“Laura is an excellent care taker. Poncho absolutely adores her. Laura is very professional, with great communication skills and very punctual. I couldn’t recommend a better dog walker.”

“Evelyn is great and Clifford loves her! She's been very reliable, communicative, and super helpful on short notice. Happy to have found her for regular walks!”

“Hannah my sister has looked after my dog Eddie on many occasions (she has been known to just let herself in to my home simply to visit him!). She is very loving towards all dogs and loves being around them so much so that she will always pick up after them! I would happily let Hannah look after Eddie and would highly recommend here as very reliable, caring and outgoing cater for dogs.”

About: I have taken care of not only my own animals, as I grew up on a farm, but neighbours, and friends over the years. I have cared for all types of animals and have owned dogs, cats and horses. I have animal first aid, am a retired hygienist so can do injections. Available starting November 2023, I am open to travel on Vancouver Island to any location. Currently booked from December 10th to 22nd, but available for the rest of December 2023. I am interested in providing care in your home only. I own a jeep so have transportation which can accommodate all sizes of dogs if required. If you require dog walking, I am an active senior and work out at the gym regularly so will be able to keep up with your dog if they are very energetic.

“She was great! Pups had a lot of fun and came home tired.”

“Carley is the best!! I know my spoiled kitty is being looked after with all the love, care and attention she deserves when Carley is looking after her! My kitty is high maintenance and requires many meals a day, and Carley is always willing to go the extra mile for the animals she cares for!”

“Martine was amazing with my younger, very energetic shepherd. She took the time to patiently get to know her and break through the furball's apprehension of leaving home with a new person until they were both having a great time. 100% recommend!”

“Our first experience using the Rover app couldn't have been more positive. Sabrina is an excellent communicator, friendly and direct, knowledgable regarding dogs, and very reliable. She communicates clearly and promptly, arrived right on time and knew immediately how to interact with our two excited rescue dogs. She has a calm manner, and our dogs were relaxed and happy upon our return. I wholeheartedly recommend Sabrina to anyone who needs in-home visits/walks for their dogs.”

“I can say with sincere confidence there is no person who can outmatch Elizabeth's love and passion for dogs. Whenever Elizabeth walks my dog, he consistently comes back happy, refreshed, and well-exercised. Furthermore, Elizabeth understands how to manage a dog safely, i.e., walking on the left side of roads and firmly gripping the leash. I truly trust Elizabeth with my dog as she demonstrates both loving care and professionalism.”

“Bryana is a wonderful, caring, and upbeat person. I've seen her many times with dogs and trust her completely, so we arranged 'dog walk trades' where we would take turns with each others' dogs, thus allowing for longer walks for the dogs... My pup always came home very happy! There's not that many people I trust to take care of my dog, but she is certainly one of them, and I have no doubt that she will devote the same love and care into any pet, no matter how long she's known them.”

“Meaghan was awesome. She came and met maple before taking her out and sent us pictures of their time together. She also was kind enough to move maples water bowl into our room so she could have a drink after. We will be hiring her again!”

“Emily cares deeply about animals, and makes it her mission to make sure they are well cared for. She has multiple years of experience working with many kinds of animals, and is an all around great person!”

About: My name is Lauren, and my main specialty is cat care. I have been cat lover since I was a child, and can honestly say they have changed my life. I have lots of free time and will work around your schedule (based upon availability) at the moment I am most available in the evening 5:30-9pm however can make adjustments. I can also do early mornings. I do not offer boarding. I primarily offer cat sitting services. I come to your home daily, feed and play with your cat/cats and then clean litter boxes and any other small task you need completed while your out off town.

About: I have been housesitting for 15 years, everything from lizards to livestock. I love having a critter to accompany me in exploring the trails on our beautiful island. My work schedule is very flexible and I love filling my days off with outdoor excursions. My work shifts are typically 4-7 hours and my evenings are free of any work commitments. I have a curated list of questions for boarding services within my clients homes, mostly pertaining to household safety, emergency protocols, and of course all veterinary and individual care information for the critters that will be under my care. In the occurrence that a pet owner would prefer I host their pet/s in my home, I have space for crates, furniture that they are more than welcome to climb on (only with owner permission) and a fully fenced dog park just steps away from my front door.

“Kassandra pours love and connects with animals and dogs alike whenever she gets the chance and in a way that is rarely seen. While camping, this girl would patiently spend half a day gaining the trust of wild chipmunks, squirrels, and rabbits so that she can feel their trust and have that connection with a wild and untrusting animal, and obviously petting them was the goal. I've also been able to see first-hand, over and over, how strangers warn her that their dog doesn't like people, or isn't friendly. Within an instant she has that dog excitedly greeting her and they share a moment, often leaving the owner silently astounded. If you hire Kassandra to care for your pet, you're hiring someone who lost their 14 year old Maltese poodle and best friend a few years ago, who's been missing the void of loving and caring for a pet. I can guarantee your pet would gain a new friend, and receive premium level love, care, attention, connection, and understanding. If you need to trust someone with your pet, look no further.”

“Kelsey is my wife and we have a golden retriever, Appa. My wife is an incredibly loving pet caregiver and Appa has to be one of the most cared for pups in the world. She regularly exercises him, gives him lots of attention and cuddles, grooms him, and takes him for regular vet checks. Also, we've gone to over a dozen puppy training lessons. All that to say that Kelsey is dedicated to animal welfare and would definitely be responsible in caring for other people's pets.”
