“Marysa was lovely in checking in on my kitty. She sent the cutest photo updates throughout both days. I will be booking her again in the future!”

“I am so thankful to Karuna for caring so beautifully for my babies. She is a great communicator, takes lots of photos and asks great questions. I would book her again in a heartbeat- even my shy girl loved her right away. Thank you!”

About: Growing up, I always had dogs and cats. When I moved to Nanaimo for school, I missed my pets so much that I started volunteering with ElderDog Nanaimo in 2022. I joined Rover three years ago, and it’s been an amazing journey! Since then, I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes and personalities: from confident, easygoing pups to those who need extra patience, trust, and understanding. I’ve loved getting to know each dog’s unique personality. I also completed my 208-hour criminology practicum with the BC SPCA, where I worked closely with dogs and cats, learning about their behaviour, backgrounds, and individual needs. I helped administer medication, provided daily care, and gave them the love and support they needed as they prepared to find their forever homes. Since June 2026, I am a VIU Criminology alumni! At the moment, I am away in Northwestern Ontario helping with wildfire operations, as a fire ranger. I look forward to resuming Rover bookings in October and caring for your pets again! My schedule is generally very flexible, allowing me to provide reliable care for your pets. Feel free to reach out if you have any questions or would like to book for October or later. I believe in building a genuine connection with every pet while keeping them on their normal routine. I’m attentive to each pet’s individual needs and always follow your instructions carefully to ensure they feel safe, comfortable, and happy.

“Very pleased with my experience with Siobhan, and lebron seemed sooo happy to spend time with her. Prior to her visit, she helped my dog to feel comfortable by popping over for a meet and greet, and even provided lebron with a delicious treat :) I absolutely loved getting pictures and updates during her visit. Siobhan also provided me with an extremely thorough visit card filled with information about her time spent with my dog. Thank you so much!! :)”

About: I have professional and personal experience with dogs, working in a professional setting with up to roughly 100 dogs daily (to many...please don't hire me to look after that many) as well as working with strays and rescues out of the country... Just lots of pet experience all around. I am professionally trained in dog and cat behavior, and studied wildlife biology. Not just a dog lover, I can handle all animals well, including exotics:). I am open for over night or a few hours or days. Any time is a good time. I can be flexible for whatever works I pay attention to the animal's behavior and needs rather than wants. Every dog is a new personality and they shouldn't all be handled the same way.

About: I’ve always loved being around dogs and the energy they bring. I especially enjoy getting out for walks, and having a dog as a companion makes that time even better. It’s honestly one of my favorite ways to spend a day. I’m fairly new to the world of dog walking and sitting, most of my experience coming in the last 4 years. I may be newer, but that doesn’t mean I lack the necessary experience. I’ve worked with different temperaments and ages, from high-energy dogs to older ones that need a slower, more gentle pace. I’m comfortable following routines, including walks, feeding schedules, and any specific care instructions. My goal is to make sure your dog feels comfortable, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pets and I want you to feel like you’re leaving your dog with someone who has as much love to give as you do. I am working part-time, I’m currently doing evening bartending shifts, so I will be available nearly all hours of the early day and 3-4 days a week I will be available in the evenings as well, usually varies what days:) Providing a safe and comfortable environment is always my top priority. I take the time to understand each pet’s routine, personality, and any specific needs so I can care for them in a way that feels familiar and low-stress. I’m attentive during walks, mindful of surroundings, and careful to follow any instructions around feeding, medications, or behaviour. At the same time, I make sure each pet gets the kind of care and attention that suits them best. Whether that’s a slower, relaxed pace for a senior dog or more active walks and playtime for a high-energy pup, I adjust to what keeps them happy and comfortable. My goal is to create a balanced environment where your pet feels secure, well cared for, and genuinely enjoys their time while you’re away. I am always happy to send picture updates as I go through my day, of the happy pups and their smiling faces as they go about on their walks.

About: I have been caring for feline friends for the past 20+ years. I was the manager of a cats only boarding kennel in Nanaimo for 11 years and then started caring for kitties in their own homes with more one on one care. I am able to administer medications including insulin injections. I do not advertise on my vehicle to make sure I am not alerting anyone that your not home. During each visit I give lots of love and playtime catered to each individual kitties preferences. I also make sure they have fresh food/water and a clean litter box. I bring in your mail/news papers, water plants, turn lights on/off, open/close blinds. I do morning and evening daily visits for my cat clients depending on their needs. After dropping my kiddos off at school during the week I go do my morning visits. And then go out again in the evening. I am much more flexible on morning visits on the weekends. I do not advertise on my vehicle to make sure I am not alerting anyone that you're not home. I also bring in your mail/news papers, water plants, turn lights on/off, open/close blinds.

About: Long time dog owner, I specialize in senior animals. I fully beleive in letting dogs sniff areas as much as they need, it's stimulating to them. I am self employed and living on Saturna Island. I live, work and travel with my best friend Raygan. We live off grid and raise our own meat birds, eggs and veggies. I do not provide in home care at my house. Need to meet minimum word requirements. Word. Word. Word. Word. Word. Word. Word. Word. Word.
