Dog Sitting Maple Ridge

About: I’ve been around and cared for dogs for as long as I can remember. I have experience with all sizes of dogs from Great Danes to Shih Tzus. I have experience with puppies as young as 6 weeks that need more attention, play time, and potty breaks. But also senior dogs as old as 18 that need more rest and calmer environments. I’m currently working part time but do expect to start my full time summer job soon. Feel free to ask me about my work schedule as my hours and days change weekly. I enjoy very early mornings and evenings. I enjoy morning walks and love being accompanied by others pets. My weekends are usually spent at home and are very slow paced. I like spending time outdoors and occasionally going to the dog park with my friends and their animals. I have a large, fenced off, grass backyard and built in baby gates around my home. My house is mostly carpet which I find more comfortable and safer for the senior dogs that come around.

“Anick is always so caring when it comes to taking care of our cat soot. She gives very thorough updates, which always makes being away better.”

“Alyssa is a wonderful and responsive sitter. She was flexible with the meet and greet time, paid attention to all my cat's known risks, followed instructions, and had no trouble giving him liquid oral meds. I appreciated her notes at the end of each visit detailing what she saw and did. Would book again!”

“Madalynn was excellent. I have a very anxious, jumpy Great Dane that Madalynn met, and she was very calm about his frustration and anxiety. She worked with him using treats and was able to settle him. She never showed any fear at all! I will have her back again!”

Melissa M.

“This was the first time I've left Bee all by herself and she was well loved and content when I returned. David sent me photos for every check-in and took time to play with her and talk to her. I highly recommend him; he put my mind at ease and I could enjoy my vacation.”

Shel F.

“Mikaila was excellent with our diabetic kitty Ringo. I appreciated the cute updates and photos. Our first experience with Rover and I quite nervous but was a great experience. I do not hesitate to recommend.”

About: I’ve been taking care of animals since I was 8. Not only do I have a dog but I take care my dads 2 dogs and 2 cats as well as my moms dog and cat. I have also gone through 2 puppy training classes and have volunteered at the humane society. I am currently a university student that is on summer break and am working part time giving me lots of free time to walk your dog or check in out your 4 (or 3) legged friends! 🐾 Whether your dog needs a quick pee break or a 2 hour walk count me in! Any requests or accommodation I can provide as long as you communicate with me what it is you need.

“Tammy is a great, caring pet sitter who quickly bonded with my cats and put all my concerns at rest. She genuinely loves all animals. She came when she said she would every single day and made sure my cats were adjusting well to their adjusted routine. I recommend Tammy most highly.”

About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life and have always loved caring for animals. I have experience looking after both dogs and cats for friends and family, including feeding, walking, playtime, and providing loving in-home care while owners are away. I also had the opportunity to help raise a batch of puppies, caring for them daily and helping teach them basic routines and good behaviors. I’m patient, dependable, and understand how important it is for pets to feel safe, comfortable, and cared for in their own environment. I treat every pet like they’re part of my family and always make sure they get plenty of attention, affection, and care. I currently work during the day, but I am available for early morning walks from 6–7 AM on weekdays and have full availability all day on Fridays. I will also soon be moving to part-time hours, which will allow me to have even more flexibility and availability for pet care. I always make sure pets receive reliable care, attention, and exercise during my available hours. I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while in my care. I carefully follow each owner’s instructions for feeding, walks, medications, routines, and any special needs. I provide lots of attention, playtime, exercise, and affection, while also keeping a clean and calm environment. My goal is to make both pets and owners feel relaxed and confident while they are apart.

“Cindy always watches our cat while we are away. She goes above and beyond, even watered our plants during the last heat wave. We highly recommend her!”

About: I am an educator that has gone to peoples homes to work with children. My favourite part is all of the different pets I get to see which they all love me. I work part time for the county doing customer service and tutor sometimes in the evenings. I can be gone from 6-8 hours on some days or home all day depending on my schedule. I love to spend all of my free time cuddling with pets or going on walks ❤️. I am a very clean individual and so I always like to make sure I leave it just as clean when I leave. Not only that but I always ensure that I give focus to animals, playing with them frequently, going on walks (if cats like it I do walks for them too!), and of course taking care of their needs.

About: We bred dogs in our family home growing up. I’m comfortable with all ages, sizes and breeds of dogs. I’ve always lived with a dog and dogs are naturally drawn toward me! I’m available during the day, evenings and anytime on the weekends! (Excluding Monday evening, Tuesday mornings and Thursdays mornings). Please reach out so we can organize and look at both of our calendars! Each animal requires a unique style of care. I care for my pets closely around their personality and most importantly I make exercise, mental stimulation and affection a priority. As well as quality nutrition. I prefer to shy away from unhealthy treats as I value the longevity and health of my pet companions!

“Umber is amazingly patient with our reactive nervous girly! She’s patient and calm, and knows the most important ways to deal with reactive dogs like letting them come to you, not making eye contact until they’re ready, etc. By the end of the visit, Hannah was cuddled up on the couch with her. We are so incredibly grateful we found her.”

About: Hi! I'm a lifelong animal lover with over 30 years of experience caring for both dogs and cats. Pets have always been an important part of my life, and I treat them like family members. I joined Rover because I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and want to provide reliable, compassionate care when their owners can't be there. I have experience caring for pets of all ages, including senior pets, and I'm comfortable administering medications and following detailed care instructions. I also have experience with shy and anxious pets and understand the importance of patience, consistency, and earning an animal's trust. Every pet is unique, and I take the time to provide care that matches their individual personality and needs. As a mature, responsible professional, I understand how important trust and communication are. I'll treat your pet as if they were my own and keep you updated with messages and photos so you can feel confident they're happy, safe, and well cared for. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members! Caring for animals has always been a part of my daily routine. I currently care for my own senior cat and understand the importance of consistency, reliability, and attention to detail when it comes to pet care. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to accommodate walks and drop-in visits throughout the week. When caring for a client's pet, I make it a priority to follow their routine as closely as possible and provide the attention, exercise, companionship, and care their pet needs. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, so pet care is something I look forward to rather than simply another task on my schedule. I believe pets are happiest when their normal routine is maintained, so I take the time to learn each pet's individual needs and preferences. During drop-in visits, I'll ensure your pet has fresh food and water, potty breaks as needed, playtime, companionship, and plenty of affection. For cats, I'll also scoop litter boxes and keep their area clean and comfortable. For dogs, I'll provide safe, enjoyable walks tailored to their age, energy level, and abilities. Whether your dog enjoys a brisk walk or a slower-paced stroll with lots of sniffing and exploring, I'll make sure they get the exercise and attention they need. I treat every pet as if they were my own and will keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you're away.

About: I was a dog groomer for 10 years so I’ve worked closely with all kinds of dog and cat temperaments. I’ve also worked as a wildlife technician with Wildnorth for 6 years so I’m familiar with giving medications to animals as well. I’m currently unemployed so I’m free all day, everyday to walk or pet sit your animals. I have a cat of my own who is good with other dogs (but not cats) so I’d be happy to watch your dog at my place, but your cat at your house. I can offer my home or for dogs and your home for cats. I live in a basement suite so to go outside for a pee I go on daily walks.
