“Anna is awesome! Great communication and updates! It's easy to see she is a knowledgeable pet lover! Our dog Tux is already looking forward to his next visit! Thank you, Anna!”

“Laura is professional and reliable. She’s very great with my 6 month old puppy and is a great communicator. I hesitate writing a great review as I don’t want everyone scooping her up from me 😅”

“Kayla takes excellent care of my two senior pups with big personalities. She understands both of their needs and is helping to train my one pup with her onleash skills.”

About: I am a calm and quiet person, and I believe pets appreciate me because I understand the importance of giving them the time and space they need to adjust when I am in their space. I grew up with many dogs and loved taking care of them, but I have always had a soft spot for cats. I would pet sit for my friends with cats while they were on longer trips. I have taken care of small-medium sized dogs. I've also worked at a cat cafe, caring for as many as 20 cats at one time. Some of my responsibilities included cleaning, feeding, playing, and observing the cats to ensure they were living their best lives at the cafe before finding their forever homes. Currently, I own a 2-year-old large breed cat whom I adore. He understands basic commands like sit, up, jump, give paw, spin, roll over, kiss, hug etc. I have a work-from-home schedule for most of the week and can be available as often as needed on the indicated days. My visits or time of care for your pet can be discussed. Let me know what you are looking for, and we can discuss from there! Safety and comfort are my top priority, and that starts with understanding your pet’s unique personality. If you have any notes or a care guide on their routine, please share them with me. I have a particular cat myself, so I’m very experienced with 'fussy' pets. I know that following their exact preferences isn't just about comfort—it’s about making sure they feel secure while you're away.
“Kate was great with my little dog and two cats. She came for a visit, took the dog for a small walk and gained his trust. That says a lot. She got him to walk further every time. She’s a lovely creative person. I highly recommend her and will be booking her again soon.”

About: I have a large mix breed rescue pup who we have developed lots of skills and knowledge from through his care and training. He is now 1.5 years old and I would love to apply these skills to caring for your pets whilst you’re away! I know how important and sometimes difficult it is to find the right person to look after your dog or cat in your absence. There is also the potential for finding a dog friend for our own pup so that we could have a mutual pet sitting relationship ☺️ Growing up, we had a family cat who was a member of the family and lived until 20 years old. As an adult, I have looked after and cared for many of my housemates pets including their cats and several dogs. I love animals and I’m very grateful for the opportunity to spend time with your beloved pets while you’re away. I work full-time but I would be able to check on and care for your pets before 8am and after 4pm. I am also available for the whole weekend and summer break July and August. Currently, I would like to pet sit in your house whilst our puppy is still in training. We may eventually be able to board in our home also.
About: I have always had a cat in my life and I have also volunteered over 200 hours caring for cats at the SPCA. I experienced a wide variety of cats, including many shy and anxious ones. While I have the most experience with cats, I would love to take your well-behaved dog for a walk or run. I am currently a student taking online courses, so I have complete flexibility for drop-in visits and walks throughout the week. I plan my schoolwork around visits so I can meet your pet’s needs and stay consistent with their routine. I’m a calm and patient person, and I always let your cat or dog approach me on their own terms. I never force interaction—I give them the space they need to feel safe and comfortable around me.
About: Calm handling for shy or high-energy dogs! 🐾 I've taken care of dogs on and off since I was just a kid. I am fear-free certified, and hold a certificate for dog CPR/ first aid. I worked with Rain City dogs in Vancouver and provided professional dog walking and house sitting. I have volunteered with the SPCA and Paws it Forward. Give my pup a break and let me annoy yours with love instead:) I work in the film industry and often have some time in between projects and love to take care of animals in my free time. I have a yard at home that is fenced. If your place has no fence, i’ll either keep them on leash or watch very very carefully.
“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.”

“I’m so glad we found a reliable and experienced dog walker for our Labrador. Our chocolate lab is a big boy full of energy, anxious and can be reactive to other dogs. Michaela is like a dog whisperer and Osito connected with her right away.”

About: My name is Michelle, I love all animals and have cared for the majority of my life. I used to walk and board dogs professionally in college. When boarding dogs I would open my schedule 100% to the animals and make no additional plans to ensure your pets are my first priority. I am very active and will make sure every animal has the right amount of exercise and more during their stay. I am a big walker so I am looking for some dogs to join me who love it just as much as I do! I work 4x a week for a couple of hours a day and am home majority of the time otherwise, when I have animas staying with me I schedule my days so I can be with them 100% I love to go for long walks and get exercise! I can’t wait to meet your animal and love it like it’s my own. The more energetic the better!
“Mike is a kind and patient dog walker, and we truly appreciate his gentle nature. Walter is always in great hands with him, and we’re grateful for the care he provides!”

“Patricia has been walking Dolly twice a week and is a dream! She is incredibly responsible and conscientious, and sends so many pictures of my girl! I know that Dolly is in wonderfully safe and loving hands with Patricia and her family.”
About: I have 6 years of pet sitting experience with many different animals such as cats, dogs and other small pets. I am reliable and affordable and will provide the best care for your pets! I take care of pets daily as I have my own dog whom I love so much. I will also occasionally pet sit for family and friends. I have made sure my house is a very pet friendly space provided with lots of entertainment, water and food bowls around the house. No dangerous or small items are scattered around my place.
“This was our first time using Rover and working with Jessie! All went very well, Bodhi was well taken care of, Jessie was on time and easy to communicate with while we were out of town. We’d be happy to have her walk Bodhi again!”

About: I’ve taken care of all kinds of pets from over 12 years. From simple walks for neighbours pets, to week long pet sitting and puppy care. My family owned a doggy daycare on our farm and I worked there every day after school walking and playing with dogs and cats. I have experience training puppies ever since I trained my own puppy 10 years ago. I’ve taken care of every kind of pet from lizards and small cats to 100+ lb dogs and have loved every one. I am a student finishing off my last year of classes, so I have plenty of time to play with pups and cats. I am available almost every day before 1 pm and every day after 5 for walks or drop ins. I have plenty of experience taking care of every kind of pet personality. If your fur baby needs a lot of attention and play time, I am pre than able to oblige, but if they are a little more reserved and quiet I am more than happy to sit in the floor and chill with them. I have a dog and 2 cats myself each with different needs and personalities and can adapt on the fly to different pet requirements!

Emily was so awesome with our pup! She walked him and kept him company while we were out of town, and went totally above and beyond. She is a great communicator and gave us lots of updates. He’s a big boy with a somewhat quirky disposition but she totally understood him.

Aurielee was fantastic!! She hit it off right away with Angus on the meet and greet. Then sent me pics and updates as my 10 day vacation went on. She was doing the 11:00 ish walk. They played fetch and he looked happy and engaged with her play time. Thank you so much Aurielee!!! I’ll definitely recommend her and I’ll be using her again in Jan when I leave for a week. Good Job all around.
