About: We had a beautiful Golden Retriever 2013-2025 who went everywhere with me and was never left alone. I loved being with him, caring for him and other friends pets, walking, brushing, veterinary drop offs and collections as well as caring for elderly dogs too. I love all dogs. Will be with the dogs all day in my home and we have beautiful trails right at our doorstep for quick walks or longer hikes. Happy to be slower if dogs are older or small or longer if they have lots of energy. I work from home so pets would never be left alone, I have set up my work to fit in with caring for our own pet as a priority. Have looked after our own dog and walked 4-5 times daily with shorter potty breaks and longer excercise trips for 12 years. I have no fenced yard but have a provincial park and walking trails directly at my door so walking is never a problem. My own golden retriever will go outside for a variety of mini walks and a longer walk daily or we can take the car to other parks if requested.

“Had to book for a walk while healing a broken leg, and am a first time user of Rover. The usual nervous pet parent when requesting a new person to help care for my "fur babies", but Amanda was wonderful. Clear and speedy communication while requesting to book and sharing my dog's quirks, very nice and calm, and my dogs returned pooped and happy after their walk. Would recommend her 110%, and will book again. ❤️”

About: I have a lifetime of experience working with all sorts of dogs, including puppies, elderly dogs and dogs requiring special care and/or medications. I am also experienced in dog training and grooming. I’m currently a student meaning I spend most of my time at home. Doing online classes can make it difficult to have typical a 9-5 job, being one of the reasons I started dog walking and sitting. As well as it being a passion I’ve had since a very early age. I have a home with a fenced in open space for your fur-babies. As well as many hiking trails located nearby for your pups to explore! Potty breaks every two hours as well as 2-4 walks a day.

About: I've had experience caring for many pets, including cats, dogs, rabbits, reptiles, and birds. I've also cared for several pets of my own, so I'm used to feeding schedules, playtime, grooming, and giving lots of love! I can adapt to each animals personality and requirements. I treat every pet like they're my own and always make sure they're well looked after! I am currently working part-time and will be starting an online course through TRU in September, which gives me a very flexible schedule for pet care! I am able to easily work pet care into my daily/weekly routine and can be flexible with walks, drop-ins, and overnight care. I stick to each pets usual routine as much as possible so they feel comfortable and at ease. I follow all care instructions provided, including feeding schedules, medications if needed, walks, potty breaks, and any other specific needs depending on the pet. My biggest priority is that your pets are happy and cared for in their own environment while also being respectful and mindful of your home and belongings. I'm always happy to send regular updates and photos so you feel reassured that your pets are doing well!

“Alexa is absolutely amazing she bonded with my pup right away and coco came back super tired after her walk she seems to have a lot of fun when she’s with Alexa ! I totally recommend her , super easy to communicate with and very serious when it comes to her work.”

About: I've been pet sitting for 21 years and have spent my life caring for animals of all kinds. Over the years, I've worked as a pet sitter, dog walker, kennel assistant, veterinary assistant, and now working toward a profession of dog training, giving me experience with dogs of all ages, breeds, personalities, and energy levels. What sets me apart is that I don't simply exercise dogs - I help them build better habits. Every walk is a training opportunity, with a focus on calm behaviour, loose leash walking, engagement, impulse control, and good manners, all tailored to your dog's individual needs. I'm comfortable caring for puppies, seniors, reactive or anxious dogs, high-energy breeds, and pets requiring medication or special care. Whether your dog needs an adventure, extra patience, or a consistent routine while you're away, I'll care for them as if they were my own while providing plenty of updates and photos for your peace of mind. I'm currently building my dog training business full-time, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to dedicate my attention to every pet in my care. I'm available for weekday walks, drop-in visits, daycare, boarding, and overnight care. Because I intentionally limit the number of pets I care for at one time, every dog receives plenty of individual attention, exercise, and enrichment. My goal is quality care - not rushing from appointment to appointment. Your pet's safety and wellbeing are always my top priorities. I take the time to understand each dog's personality, routines, and comfort level before every booking. I use secure equipment, practice safe handling, and never introduce unfamiliar dogs unless requested by the owner. For boarding, dogs become part of my daily routine with structured walks, rest periods, enrichment activities, and lots of one-on-one attention. I maintain a calm environment that helps dogs feel relaxed and secure while you're away. You'll also receive regular photo updates, so you can enjoy your time away knowing your pet is happy and well cared for.

About: Let me give you peace of mind while you are separated from a very important member of the family. I have a lifetime of experience with many animals including exotics. Whether your pet is furry, scaly, or lives in water, I will give everything I have to make sure they are well taken care of. Your rules and boundaries are of the utmost importance and you can count on me to follow through making sure your pet has consistency in your absence. Nutrition and exercise are top priorities but just as important is your pet's emotional well-being. It is hard on everyone to be a part and it is my responsibility to help your loved one through the anxiety and fear that can come from separation. When you return from being away, you will be greeted with a healthy happy animal ready to spend quality time with you. I currently work from home on my own schedule and terms. This makes it easy for me to take care of your pet anytime during the day. Your rules, guidelines and wishes are my top priority. I will follow your requests as I strongly believe consistency creates a happy well behaved pet.

About: I’m patient, attentive, and genuinely love spending time with dogs — whether it’s energetic playtime with puppies, calm walks with seniors, or everything in between. I’m comfortable with all breeds and sizes and always prioritize their safety, happiness, and comfort. Im currently working part time, so I will have plenty of time to play with your pups. 5pm onwards I will be available for pet sitting over night. When caring for pets in their own home, I maintain their normal routine, keep the space tidy, and ensure all doors/windows are secure. I send regular photo/text updates so owners can relax knowing their dog is happy and safe. I’m very attentive to each dog’s personality and needs, whether they’re high-energy or more relaxed.

“Lori is fantastic with dogs. She establishes firm but loving contact which is exactly what is required. As a result, our boy is ecstatic to see her and behaves beautifully when with her. She is also an excellent communicator, professional and personable. Very happy to have found Lori and to have her looking after our boy.”

About: I have 8 years of pet sitting experience with many different animals. I have grown up around many different animals my whole life and have a pup of my own. I will also frequently take care of family and friends dogs and cats. I will do my absolute best to make sure your dogs get the attention, exercise and needs they require! I look forward to meeting and caring for your pups! :) I am at home full time so I have plenty of time to take care of your pets and attend to their daily needs! I am a student so I attend various classes but they are all done online and from the comfort of my own home. I live in a 2 bedroom apartment and have made sure my house is a very pet friendly environment provided with lots of entertainment, water and food bowls around the house. There are many dedicated spaces if the pups (or cats) need some space or if they just want to relax in private. There are no spots that are off limits for the pups so they have lots of room to play and explore! :) our place has a chill and relaxed vibe to it so your dogs can be comfortable and feel like it’s a safe home away from home.

About: Lifelong pet owner with hands-on experience caring for family pets. Comfortable with feeding, walks, and giving lots of attention. Caring, dependable, and attentive. I treat every pet like my own and make sure you stay updated and worry-free. My schedule is flexible, which allows me to dedicate quality time to pet care throughout the day. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, and sitting on both weekdays and weekends. I can adjust my routine to fit your pet’s needs, whether that’s regular check-ins, playtime, or sticking closely to their usual schedule. I focus on creating a calm, safe, and comfortable environment for every pet. Having grown up with animals, I’m very attentive to their behavior and needs. I always follow the owner’s instructions closely, from feeding routines to house rules, to make sure your pet feels secure and at ease. I’m respectful of your home and prioritize cleanliness, safety, and clear communication, including regular updates so you can feel confident your pet is in good hands.

About: I’ve grown up my whole life with two dogs, big and small, so I know just how important your furry friends are. Since I was 10 years old i’ve taken care of all types of dogs, and I am comfortable providing any type of care. I am a huge animal lover and have had much experience taking care of cats, rabbits, and even reptiles! I am currently in school studying a major in Biology and a minor in Zoology with hopes to spend much of my time around animals. As a dedicated student and lifelong animal enthusiast, I provide attentive, trustworthy care for your furry friends while you’re away. I am more than comfortable house/dog sitting over multiple nights and would love to have a companion in the house! Before caring for your pet, I will hope to be made aware of any special care necessary so I can be prepared and care for your pet in the best way possible. I am currently a student athlete on the women’s volleyball team, studying at UBC Okanagan. This means that most of my time is spent at the school in class, or in the gym. That being said, I do need your pet to be able to be left for longer hours throughout the day and possibly alright late in to the evening. I would plan to discuss my schedule with you in detail so that there is full understanding on when I will be around for overnight care etc. I am always open to discuss the best times needed for a walk around the block with your furry friend. With that in mind, the amount of time your pet is able to stay alone will be the most important question before I am able to provide my care. I have a fenced yard and a lovely german shepherd to keep your fur baby company. There is no crate, but am able to bring one into my home so your dog can sleep peacefully.

How I Care for Pets in Your Home 🐾 When caring for pets in their own home, I focus on making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while maintaining their usual routine. I take the time to understand each pet’s individual needs, personality, and preferences. During visits, I provide: * Fresh food and water according to their routine. * Walks, playtime, and exercise appropriate for their needs. * Plenty of attention, companionship, and affection. * A clean and comfortable environment. * Medication administration when agreed upon and appropriate. * Regular updates and photos so you know how your pet is doing. I understand that every dog is different. Some are playful and energetic, while others need patience, space, and time to feel comfortable with a new person. My goal is to provide reliable, attentive care while respecting your home and your pet’s routine. I want you to feel confident knowing your pet is in caring hands while you’re away. Please feel free to share your pet’s needs and any special instructions before the visit. I’m happy to discuss how I can help! 🐶
