Dog Sitting Ladner

About: My love and compassion for all animals (in fact, ALL living things) is unconditional. Animals can sense this and return that love to me. Throughout my life I’ve had five pet "partners" two of which were dogs, including:  Sox (m.) my boisterous bichon shih-tzu, from 1999 to 2011;  Miss Inky (f.) my special shih-tzu, sadly only from 1996 to 1998;  Greecy (m.) the “grey panther” my Burmese cat, from 1984 to 1988.  That’s my pet short story which I liked sharing as much as I hope you liked reading. Currently my days and nights are free except when I am out of town in Alberta for a short work contract. Pet care presents no disruption to my routine. Crating can be used only if and when required either in my home or at your home. As my yard is not fenced, we go to the nearby park. Inside play is with a toy or a ball which I provide.

About: I love pets more than people! I would love to hang out with yours!💜 I've had pets my entire life and, as a proud cat mom to two of the best kitties, I know how important it is to ensure your pets feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you're away. Whether it's feeding, playtime, or administering medications, I'm the person friends turn to when they need someone trustworthy to look after their pets. I recently took my two cats on an extended road trip, and they did wonderfully—proof of my ability to care for animals in all kinds of situations! I love animals more than people, and I'll treat your pets with the same level of affection and attention as my own. I’m self employed and often work from home. I have lots of time to visit and exercise your pets. I also go for walks/hikes often so I would love to have your pet join me! I have 2 cats that are cool with small, cat friendly dogs. Have a fenced in concrete patio (no grass.) I also live across the street from a park and several walking paths.

About: I've taken care of all kinds of critters! Growing up with birds, cats, dogs and even monkeys has given me deep love for animals. I've dog-sat for friends, families and neighbors, and I'm ready to do it for you! I'm currently in school full-time, and a majority of my schooling is online. I'm very flexibile on weekdays, but weekends may have to be booked further in advance. I will come to your home and treat it with the same care I do my home. Cleanliness is very important to me. I will also keep up with all training regimens and dietary guidelines you provide for your pet!

About: As a proud French Bulldog owner for the past 6 years, I understand that every pet has unique needs, personalities, and routines. Caring for my own Frenchie has given me hands-on experience managing complex allergy issues, maintaining a consistent care routine, and paying close attention to the little details that make a big difference in a pet’s health and happiness. I know firsthand that some pets require extra patience, specialized attention, and a little more TLC. This experience has taught me to be attentive to dietary sensitivities, skin concerns, comfort levels, and changes in behaviour, while always following the owner’s instructions and established care routines. I bring that same level of dedication, patience, and attention to every pet I care for. Whether your furry friend needs extra attention, a consistent routine, gentle care, or simply lots of love and companionship, my goal is to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Your pet isn't just a pet — they're family. I’ll treat them with the same care and affection I give my own Frenchie! I’m available for pet sitting on Sundays, Mondays, and Tuesdays with flexible availability throughout the day. I’m also open to bookings on other days, especially during the early mornings and evenings. I’m happy to work with your schedule and your pet’s routine to help ensure they receive the care, attention, and love they deserve. Feel free to reach out to discuss your pet’s needs and find a time that works best for both of us! I look forward to meeting you and your furry family member! When caring for pets in their own home, I focus on keeping them comfortable, happy, and stress-free by maintaining their usual routines and respecting their individual needs. I follow each pet parent’s instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, allergies, medication instructions when applicable, and any special care requirements. I make sure every pet receives plenty of attention, affection, playtime, and exercise appropriate for their age, energy level, and needs. I understand that being away from their family can be an adjustment, so I take the time to build trust with each pet and help them feel safe and secure in their familiar environment. I also respect your home, keep things tidy, and provide regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. My goal is to give every pet personalized care, patience, and love, just as they deserve, so you can feel confident knowing your furry family member is in good hands!

About: I’ve taken taken care of all my friends kids/pets over the years but have never had my own. Thats why I’m known as the fun uncle :) Im an early riser and am away at work Monday to Friday for up to 8.5 hours. I can take your pup out for runs & walks early mornings for up to 45min and up to 2 hours in the afternoon/evenings. I’m free most weekends and able to do pick up/drop offs depending on the location. I’d care for your pet as if they were my own. My car is very dog friendly and am able to take them on most errands and adventures. Walks depending on the pet could range from runs to burn off energy to chill walks with plenty of stops to sniff all the smells/roses.

“This is the 2nd time I have booked Juliana and she continues to be wonderful. My puppy Jack loved spending the evening with her while I went out to a holiday event.”

“Just amazing with my boy! It was my first time in his 9+ years leaving him with someone other than family. I had so much anxiety and fears around it, but Shiva alleviated all of them! She was incredible with my boy and he just loved her so much.”

About: I'm a lifelong dog lover from the UK currently traveling around Canada. I’ve had dogs in my home all my life and have spent the last 7 years dog sitting for a wide range of breeds from energetic dogs who need long, adventurous walks, to older dogs who just enjoy a gentle stroll and relaxing in the park. I’ve also trained my own dog and a friends so I’m comfortable reinforcing commands. Being around dogs is something i miss while traveling, so I’d love the chance to help care for yours as if they were my own.

I love to go on long walks so will happily take the dog out for as long as you recommend I am constantly aware of the animals in my care and keep an eye on them whether it’s in the garden at the park or in the house. This also mean I will follow any rules that the owner has set out

About: I have hands-on experience raising and caring for multiple pets, both male and female, which has given me a deep understanding of their unique personalities and needs. I truly love spending time with animals, and I always make sure to keep them active and happy by creating fun games and activities tailored to their energy levels and interests. Pet care is truly woven into my daily life—I work from home with my own puppy, so caring for pets is second nature to me. My routine includes regular walks, playtime, training sessions, and lots of cuddles, ensuring every pet feels comfortable, safe, and loved throughout the day. I stick closely to your pet’s established feeding, exercise, and medication schedules, ensuring consistency and comfort.

About: Hello, I am a working IT professional looking for a way to get outside and away from the computer. I love animals and am interested in spending more time with them along with helping someone out. It can be hard to juggle everything in your life(kids,job, commitments, vacations), I can help you feel assured your pet gets the exercise it needs. I am just beginning this dog walking journey but have been walking my friend's dogs to get some experience. So far there have been no issues. The dogs have been of various sizes. If your dog has a favorite place to walk, I'm open to taking them there. Feel free to contact me. I am available early mornings, most evenings and weekends. Thank you,

“Atika sent the best pictures of our two kitties while we were gone. We loved the daily updates. She is a great communicator and was awesome about coordinating the key pick up and drop off. We will definitely book with her again.”

About: Only Accept One Dog at a Time Why We Started Rover Our beloved dog, Hockey, passed away in September 2025 at the incredible age of 19 years and 11 months. After nearly two decades together, our home felt empty. We joined Rover because we missed having dogs in our lives. Today, every dog who stays with us is welcomed like family and cared for with the same love, patience, and respect that Hockey inspired. Every dog is different. Before each stay, we take the time to learn about your dog's personality, routines, feeding schedule, exercise needs, medications, and anything else that helps them feel comfortable. We carefully follow your instructions so your dog experiences as little disruption as possible. Daily Updates We know you'll miss your furry family member, so we'll send plenty of photos and videos throughout their stay, giving you peace of mind that they're happy, safe, and loved. While you're enjoying your vacation, your dog will be enjoying theirs—a true 5-Star Home Stay & Play experience. Whether your dog is energetic and playful or prefers a slower pace, my goal is to make them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for—just like they would at home. I’m working from home during weekdays, so your dog will always have company and attention. I enjoy taking dogs on walks in the morning, at lunch, and in the evening. I make sure they get plenty of exercise each day and am happy to run with them at the nearby soccer field In our home, we care for pets as if they were our own—offering plenty of love, attention, and a calm, safe environment. We follow your dog’s usual routine, including feeding times, walks, play, and rest, to keep them comfortable and happy. Outdoor time is always supervised in our little fenced yard, Whether it’s cuddle time or quiet time, we adjust to each dog’s unique needs so they feel right at home.

About: Hi! I’m Morgan. I’ve been fortunate enough to have the privilege to grown up on Vancouver Island, surround myself in nature on a daily basis and reach peaks with views that leave you in Awe. I’m a nurse at the hospital, some days are harder then others but I’m looking for a new type of work to throw into the mix that makes me feel good, animal therapy! I believe it’s called. I’m responsible, friendly, respectful and reliable. :) I’d be more then happy to take your precious fur baby off your hands for an afternoon or a night and take it hiking, to the beach or on a stroll around the neighbourhood. I need some fluffy cuddles in my life these days. :) I have a flexible work schedule at the hospital and when I’m not working, I’m out on the trails running or walking! Having a pet to spend time with would fit into my schedule well I’ve had many pets over for sleepovers and have also stayed at friends places or people in need a pet sitter and I love it. Being apart of their routine, feeding, movement, cuddles. I love it all.

About: We are Brenden and Brooke. For the past 4 years we have been travelling and professionally stewarding properties around the world. We are commonly contracted with ranches, hobby farms, homesteads and household - some of which hold more than animal/dependant responsibility due to business operations running on the property. Over the years we have developed our service quality and specialized care as a professional couple. While traveling we organize volunteer experiences that increase our skills and knowledge in order to fulfill hosts and their animal's needs. This fuels our travels and we want to bring this lifestyle to Vancouver island as we network around the area. We pour our time an energy to the animals we are caring for, meaning we will be with them as much as possible over the course of our stay. We have lived in 10+ households with animals, with some experiences being up to 2 months. We will care for your animals as you would. We are able to carefully follow complex instructions. A bonus is that we are very active people, and if you would like your animals to get exercise, we are all about it.

About: Animals are my life! I have always had pets growing up as a child and my love for them has grown into my adulthood even more. My experience in Pet Care is from having my own pets and caring for family, friends and passion for pet care comes from learning pet care from my dad who is police dog trainer. I currently work from home it's a flexible job so l would have plenty time for the pet. Also I would love to go out on walks. I have fenced yard where we can go out play, I have play toys, yummy treats for the fur babies. Also would love to go on walks. I do not take many pets in one service so I can provide more personalized services.
