House Sitting in Lions Bay

“Riley did a great job with our dog and staying in our home while away for a few nights. She was proactive in sending updates and the house was spotless! Thank you Riley!”

“Our Hugo was well taken care of by Mariia and Vini! Hugo had some problems with his paws and Vini & Mariia communicated promptly and regularly with us to find a solution. They gave him lots of walks and TLC. We found Vini and Mariia through a friend’s recommendation and we are so grateful! We will absolutely seek out their services next time. Highly recommended!!”

About: I have taken care of cats with a variety of needs including medical. Happy to look after dogs too as I love being with my friends and their pups. I am able to work from home as needed and have a flexible office where dogs are welcome. I have a car to help transport and know all the great spots by my work for all the walks! I have stayed in homes many times and can help look after your pets/garden/plants etc.. as needed. Happy to sit around the city as well as further out.

“Yichun was extremely amazing and went above and beyond with Minky, the kitty. Yichun was professional, caring, wonderful, amazing, and exceeded all expectations. Yichun reached out prior to the booking to learn about Minky, her needs, and her routine. On the 1st day she was prompt and arrived prior to the start time, which was a sign of how amazing she is. Minky had the best time with Yichun while I was away, and received so much attention and brushy time (her favourite). Minky was extremely well care for while away, and I was able to relax and not have any worries about my kitty being in her care. Yichun exceeded the expectations by sending a ton of updates and images, and for the amount of time she spent playing and hanging with Minky. I would highly recommend Yichun to anyone looking for longterm pet sitting and she will be a repeat sitter for Minky anytime I go away, which is perfect. Thank you Yichun for being wonderful and the amount of care and time you provided for Minky.”

“Our animals had a blast with Isaac. They went hiking and swimming while we were on a cruise to Alaska. He kept them busy and distracted while we were gone. I highly recommend him to anyone who is considering him to care for their pets.”

“Isobel did a fantastic job looking after Finn on short notice. She took a genuine interest in his care and provided daily updates. Would recommend Isobel for dog walking or dog sitting.”

“Jeremy was so great!! Knox is very attached to me and is tough to warm up, but Jeremy got him to come out of his shell and they had a great time :). He was very respectful of the house (and thanks for cleaning my coffee machine 😅). Would have him back anytime !”

“Sophie was absolutely fantastic—took the time to understand our dog, asked the right questions, communicated well, and left our home cleaner than she found it. Would 100% recommend her to anyone looking for a dog sitter”

“Allison came to my rescue at the last minute. She was great with my animals. Gave me updates and pictures. She also left my place really clean. Thank you.”

About: I have been surrounded by animals my entire life. I grew up on a farm with horses, cows, chickens, dogs, cats, parrots and rabbits. my father had a wildlife touring company on Vancouver Island where we observed Killer Whales, Grizzly Bears and sea otters and many other animals. I have over 6 years of experience working and managing pet stores along with dog, cat, and rabbit adoption through the SPCA. I also have experience walking dogs and boarding them in doggy daycare. Due to working in pet stores, I have extensive knowledge of pet foods and products. I grew up with German Shepherds, and owned two Pomeranians that have recently passed due to old age and have worked with rescue dogs as well. I love both domestic and wild animals and am passionate about protecting animals, and the environment. I am an active person that loves to be outside, and going on walks and hikes. My pomeranian Pongo passed away in 2022 from old age, and my second pomeranian Pepper passed away at the beginning of this year from old age. Dog boarding will help bridge the transition for me not having a dog at home anymore, and this way I can still give love and attention to dogs while their families are away traveling. I did some dog boarding with Rover with Pongo, but once I rescued Pepper I stopped dog boarding for about 5 years. Now that pepper has passed I am ready to do this again. I have a hybrid job so I am only in the office Monday to Wednesday and work from home Thursday and friday, which means your pup will have constant companionship from Thursday to Sunday. Monday to Wednesday your pup will only be alone for max 6 hours. I also have flexibility with my job, and can work from home the whole week if your pup cant be alone. I can walk your pup basically as much as they want, I live in a nice neighborhood with parks nearby and can take your pup for forests walks at pacific spirit park if that is something your dog likes. Can give your pup lots of playtime and cuddles as well. I live in an apartment and have a dog safe space (so they cant get into human food or anything else they shouldn't get into). I can take your pup for leashed walks around my neighborhood, to parks, pacific spirit park and nearby beaches if that is something your dog likes. My apartment and my energy is calm and peaceful so your dog will have a relaxing time here with me.

About: Hi, I'm Kat! I'm attentive, observant, patient and mindful of all the needs your pet may have. I love and respect them equally, thankful they're with us here, adding happiness to our lives. I love taking walks and breaks during the day. I work from a laptop and I'm pretty flexible with my hours, only needing an internet connection if I was to house sit. I'm very clear in communicating if your needs will align with my schedule. I have experience with all kinds of pet accommodations - from heavier dogs needing to be constantly on leash and supervised because of their reactivity to pets allowed to roam more freely. I'm mindful of details and never forget given instructions, however complicated they may be.

“Elise is very professional, considerate, has great communication and a calm presence - our dogs loved her immediately. We felt completely at ease leaving them in her care. Highly recommend Elise for any pet care needs.”

About: I’ve grown up with family dogs and have been dog-sitting for friends for many years. This past summer, I completed my dog first aid training and gained hands-on experience as a dog walker, managing up to six dogs at once. I’m passionate about providing quality care, exercise, and safety for your pets. I’m currently working part-time in Squamish with flexible hours, allowing me to be available mostly during the week and some weekends with advance notice. I’m happy to accommodate your pet care needs and ensure your furry friends are well taken care of. When caring for pets in my home, I ensure a safe, comfortable environment with plenty of space for play and rest. I maintain a consistent routine for feeding, walks, and playtime, and I supervise at all times to ensure their safety and well-being. In your home, I follow any specific instructions you provide, such as feeding schedules, exercise routines, and preferred activities. I make sure your pet feels comfortable and secure in their own environment, keeping things as normal as possible while you're away. Regular updates and communication are always a priority, so you know your pet is in good hands.

“Paloma dog and house sitting for us was an absolute breeze! Her warm and friendly nature works so well with our dogs. She was extremely communicative throughout and sent loads of photos and videos - we could clearly see that our dogs were happy and well taken care of. She took meticulous care of our home and left it bright and shiny clean on our arrival. We have no complaints at all and will gladly book her in the (most likely near) future!!”

I've honed my skills in training exuberant puppies and providing compassionate care for our older furry friends. Trust me to give your beloved pet the exceptional attention and love they deserve. As a student with flexible afternoons, pet care easily slots into my weekly routine. With my schedule, I can dedicate ample time to ensure your pet's needs are met.

When caring for pets in my own home, I ensure a comfortable and safe environment that feels like a second home for them. This includes designated play areas, cozy sleeping spots, and regular feeding schedules. I tailor activities to their preferences, whether it's interactive playtime or calm cuddles.

I'm respectful of their space and surroundings, while also providing companionship and comfort. My goal is to ensure a seamless transition so that the pets feel relaxed and content in their own environment.

“I cannot say enough positive things about Jake & the incredible care he gave our fur baby, Harley. He saved our weekend getaway by accommodating my urgent request when our other arrangements fell through last minute (when we were already out of town). Needless to say it was a stressful situation, but he was super quick to respond and was at our place within a couple of hours. Jake’s communication was 10/10 the entire time we were away and he sent frequent updates & photos which instantly put my mind at ease. It was evident from the pictures & videos that Harley loved her time with Jake and he went above & beyond with all the adventures he took her on! If you’re looking for a reliable, caring, and attentive sitter for your fur baby (especially in a pinch), I would 110% recommend Jake!”

“Lauren is a very patient and conscientious dogsitter who really took the time to make sure she understood the needs of our nervous rescue dog. She was punctual, reliable and just generally lovely, and we will certainly be booking her again.”
