“We cannot say enough good things about Ana! We were in a pickle finding someone to watch and feed our cat Zantar. He needs his insulin twice a day so it's a huge ask. Ana had no problem doing the insulin needles and being able to come twice a day. Ana was so friendly, and I immediately felt comfortable when we did a meet & greet. She sent us update messages throughout the week and was easy to contact. We will definitely use her again in the future :) :) Thank you again Ana!”
About: I've grown up with dogs so I know a thing or two, I will be happy to walk your dog for long periods of time if it's nice and warm out, if it's in the area I'll take them out to a field and play a little catch. I will do dog walking, sitting, check ins, whatever will be offered. I have personal experience with big dogs and small dogs I have no breed preferences what's so ever. I will take good care of your loved one as if it was my own. If during the week is required, I can always talk and agree. I currently work full time Monday-Friday with my weekends available. I am however in a position where I can work from a house during the weekdays if we can work it out as well. Unfortunately I will not be offering for the pet to stay at my house. But in the clients home I will provide daily walks, frequent bathroom breaks and any outdoor adventure.
“Hannah is amazing. My dog is notably happier after visits while we are away from the house. She gives great feedback about her visit (which really puts us at ease) and she is even kind enough to bring puzzles for my active and curious puppy to play with. We will absolutely continue booking with her and we encourage others to as well. Absolutely no concerns.”
“We just bought an acerage in the area , and didn't know anyone that was close enough to help with our cats transition to her new home. Shes primarily an outdoor kitty , but knew there was a chance ahe would wander if no one around. So you can imagine how ecstatic I was to find Alley that was more than willing to help ! She is so friendly , and instantly sensed her genuine love for fur babies. She was so accommodating and never once made me feel like I was a helicopter fur baby mama with my requests. She sent many videos and pictures showing me how happy my princess was with her snuggle visits. I feel so blessed finding her !! She definitely will be my permanent snuggle sitter for those long away work trips xx”
About: Having senior pets takes an incredible amount of compassion and patience.

I have weekends and school holidays available to care for pets full time. At the client's home, I provide for the physical and emotional needs of the pets- food, water, any medications, cages and litter cleaning and play/exercise, basic grooming. Owners provide sensory toys, games and treats so I can engage their pets and provide a stimulating environment.

About: I've always enjoyed my time around dogs, we had a King Charles Spaniel for most of my life and he was my very best friend. I've been missing my puppy time & would love the opportunity to take care of your little friends too ! I have lots of free time before I move to Kelowna in June & would love to take any requests for house/pet sitting, it would be my main priority ! I know how important routine is & I never want stress to affect your pets while you're away from them. I always try my best to stick to whatever a normal day in their lives would look like.
About: I’ve always had dogs all my life. I’ve cared for them and trained them as well. Retrievers, Setters, Beagles, A German Shepard, Border Collie, Pitbull, Yorkies and more! I will always have gogs and cats in my life. I’m currently layed off from the oil patch and expect I will for some time. I am free days and nights and will be finding other employment locally, maybe a professional walker…sounds good to me! I have a Yorkie and a cat. I do multiple walks daily with both. The cat like to ride in a stroller. She knows when it’s time and jumps into the stroller herself.

About: Hi, I’m Olivia! I’m 25 and have 8 years of experience as a Veterinary Technician Assistant in emergency and surgical care. I grew up on a farm in Alberta surrounded by animals—dogs, cats, horses, sheep, and cows—and I’ve loved them all my life. I know how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone, and I promise to treat your pup like family—with love, care, and lots of attention (plus treats, if allowed!). I’m comfortable with all breeds, ages, and even pets with quirky personalities or special medical needs. I’d love to meet your furry friend! I work weekdays from 7 AM to 4 PM, but I’m available most weekends and any evening after 4. If your pet is okay being home during the day, I’m happy to provide morning and evening care—or drop in for walks and check-ins! I do my best to follow your pet’s usual routine to help them feel safe and comfortable while you're away. Sticking to familiar habits can make a big difference, especially for pets who get stressed when their family isn’t around.

I would highly recommend Shannon who will provide you with the upmost care for your pet.”
