“Kassandra is so wonderful! She has a natural connection with dogs and had made friends with another dog in my building before even starting her visit with my girl. I felt very comfortable leaving my girl with her and she prioritized my pet's comfort and wellbeing. Highly recommend Kassandra, especially to anyone with anxious/stressed dogs.”

“Montana was excellent, she provided daily updates/pictures for each visit, she’s super friendly and took amazing care of our two boys! Definitely would book again with her. Thank you so much for taking care of our boys!”

About: I have always been relied upon to watch friends and family members pets for as long as I can remember. I’m single, a bit introverted and a homebody. I love all breeds of dogs, big and small and I’m just hoping to help out some people in my city. I take pride in never leaving any animals that I am boarding home alone and being with them the whole time to ensure their happiness and wellbeing is a top priority. I work full time Monday to Thursday from 8-6. I’m home on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays, and free in the evenings. I can be available for all types of pet services and I’m pretty flexible. I have a decent sized fenced in yard and I have a small chihuahua who is calm and will not aggravate other dogs. I can easily crate your animals if you prefer and can stick to special diets as well.

About: I have been a pet parent my entire life and have volunteered with dogs in various programs over the past 15 years. Some of these groups include the Red Deer Humane Society, BCSPCA, and Elderdog Canada. With my experience, I have helped support many different breeds of dogs with various temperaments, including dogs with reactivity and strong prey drives. In my visits, I’m comfortable not only providing your dog with an outdoor break during their day, but, I can also help out with feeding, basic medications, and light grooming (unfortunately no nail care at this time). I’m a health care worker that currently works part time and I have a couple days available for dog walking and drop in visits. I’m currently available on Wednesdays and Fridays after I walk my own dogs :) At my house, my dogs have a fully fenced yard that they have access to while I am at home. The dogs and I go for walks daily, and due to one of dogs being more reactive, there is only on leash walks to avoid conflict with other dogs and innocent squirrels.

About: Attentive and compassionate care for dogs. They are the ultimate companion 4L for the human species and they need forever love just like we do. I currently am in school at Camosun college. I live with my partner at home and we go on walks every evening , and would love to have a companion or two with us. We are looking to adopt/foster a dog ourselves and would take these experiences home with us to be future dog owners. Both madly in love with dogs. Would provide dog with water and food when requested. Dogs won’t be unattended when coming for visit. Guaranteed play time with us or one of us.

About: I am passionate about providing exceptional care for your furry family members. Having grown up with pets all my life, I understand the importance of finding someone trustworthy and dedicated to look after your beloved animals. Since I was 18, I have been caring for dogs and cats, and over the years, I have developed a strong bond with them. I walk dogs weekly and have taken clients' dogs on hikes, allowing them to enjoy the great outdoors while getting the exercise they need. My experience ensures that your pets are not just looked after, but are also engaged and happy. What sets me apart from other pet sitters and walkers is my genuine love for animals and my commitment to their well-being. I take the time to understand each pet's unique personality and needs, ensuring they receive personalized care. Whether it's a leisurely walk, an adventurous hike, or simply keeping them company at home, I treat every pet as if they were my own. I would love the opportunity to meet you and your pets and discuss how I can provide the best care for them. As a part-time online student, I study from home and have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate ample time and attention to your furry friends. Since I do not have another job outside of pet care, I am always available to ensure that your pets receive the love, care, and exercise they need. I understand how important it is for pets to have consistent companionship and care, especially when their owners are away. With my routine, I can provide regular walks, playtime, and cuddles, making sure your pets feel happy and secure. I am committed to offering a safe and nurturing environment for all the pets I care for, whether at my home or theirs. Ensuring their safety is my top priority. I take the time to get to know each pet's unique personality and needs, which helps me create a comfortable space for them. I make sure to provide regular walks to keep them active and engaged, as I don't have a backyard. I like to bring them on walks at the beach, or at Thetis lake for example. I also have a balcony to spend some time with them outside. I pay close attention to their body language, as it is essential for understanding their feelings and needs. This way, I can quickly identify when they need to play, rest, need a little extra affection, or need space. By creating a secure and attentive atmosphere, I ensure that each pet feels at home and loved during their time with me.

“Elel was absolutely amazing! We were so relieved to have somebody take such good care of our pet cat while we were away. Elel was in touch with us throughout and made sure everything went perfectly well. Will definitely book again next time we're out of town.”

About: My sweet Yorkie is a senior with spinal issues. On the vet's orders she is only allowed 5-10 minute walks a day, which means these days she mainly enjoys spending time with my family at home and roaming about the yard. I am searching for cool pets to hang out with in my newfound free time. I will take your pet for a walk rain or shine! My dog is a 13 pound Yorkie, but I am comfortable around larger dogs as well. My family has always had golden retrievers growing up. Having a Yorkie means I am not afraid of barking by any means, and I have experience reinforcing calm, consistent boundaries with a high-anxiety pet. We have also had our fair share of food allergies and digestive problems, not to mention the recent spinal pain. I know how to watch for signs of discomfort, dehydration, etc. and will keep you informed if anything out of the ordinary happens. I have never owned a cat myself but have lived with cats and cat-sat lots for friends! I work full time Monday to Friday during the day but am looking to fill my evenings and weekends with pet care! During the work week I'm available for evening walks and drop ins. On the weekends I'm free for walks, drop ins, and boarding all day. I will give your pet lots of love and attention, and am open to whatever specific needs you have. Willing to follow whatever instructions you have re: access to your home/building, dietary restrictions, allergies, feeding/bathing/walking/potty break schedules, etc.

About: I started my first animal care business at the tender age of 6, and have been caring for my own and others' animals ever since. I have experience with special needs and anxious pets, reptiles, rabbits, birds, even wild animals, as well as canines and felines. At home I just have Panda (my cat) and sometimes Thistle (my dog I co-parent). In the past have struck a cozy balance with the needs and desires of up to four animals (3 cats and a dog), and have met with success when introducing others into the mix. Panda and I are extensive travelers and have befriended many a furred friend on our adventures. I have also been walking dogs since I was a child and am very focused on making sure they have a thorough and enjoyable experience. I'm comfortable with dogs of any size, and can even probably walk your cat! (I take mine out regularly) In people's homes, I am very respectful of space and privacy and work to make my presence undetectable, except for the animal to whom I'm providing company to of course! I'm very good at following care instructions and am not afraid of light grooming, administering medications, etc. I spent some time volunteering with the SPCA doing feline socialization as well. I have dealt with special need purebreds, high anxiety rescues, and most things in between. I just really like animals! I want to make sure they're happy, healthy, and well cared for. I am a student finishing up my degree, a part time worker, and avid volunteer, so my schedule is all over the place, but luckily it's mostly under my control, so I can arrange it around a pet's needs. My home is set up to cater to the needs and comfort of my senior cat and for when my dog stays with me. I do have a large amount of houseplants, not all of which are pet- friendly, but these are largely out of reach and can be moved to a closed off room if necessary. I have several ways to separate animals if need be, am comfortable with crating, and generally being aware of potential hazards. At a client's house I am able to follow clear instructions and make sure proper protocols are followed (separate feeding, enclosures, making sure doors are open/ closed etc)

About: Hey! My name is Christina. I have a 10 year old shih tzu dachshund cross. He is my entire world and I would also treat and care for your dog as if he/she were my own. I’m located in Langford but I do have a car so distance isn’t really an issue but do prefer to stay as close to home as possible. I offer walks and to feed/play with your dogs 7 days a week. I would walk my dog with yours so a meetup can be arranged if desired. I am allergic to cats so do prefer if you do not have cats. Please do not hesitate to reach out and ask if I can do something above and beyond call of duty. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family! I work full time 40hrs a week mon-fri. While I am not able to provide potty breaks every few hours, I am able to provide potty breaks in the am before heading to work as well as when I get home from work. My weekends are dedicated to adventuring weather permitting. I do not have a fenced yard as I live in a condo but I would do walks. My dog does stay at my parents during the day so if your dog were to stay at my place your dog would not be bugged by mine if that is what he/she prefers.

“Ashley was a great cat sitter, I booked her in for drop in visits and she always showed up on time and took really good care of Maui. She would send me photos after every visit and leave the nicest note cards too. I really appreciate Ashley and how much she cares for the pets she sits as if they’re her own. Will definitely book again!”

About: With over 15 years of experience caring for dogs —from beloved family pets to clients as a professional dog walker—I bring patience, enthusiasm, and genuine love to every visit. I’ve handled everything from daily walks and playtime to bathing and working with pets of all personalities and temperaments. Every animal is unique and special, and I’m here to make sure they feel happy, safe, and loved. While I’m currently part-time recovering from a knee injury, I have plenty of flexible availability to give your pups some extra love and attention! I’m open for drop-ins and walks on Mondays, Fridays, most weekends, and some weekday afternoons—happy to accommodate your schedule. When caring for a dog in a client’s home, I make sure to follow all instructions provided to maintain the dog’s routine and comfort. I start by giving the dog time to get comfortable with me, then ensure they’re fed, walked, played with, and given any needed medication on schedule. I keep the home clean, respect the client’s space, and always send updates and photos so they feel reassured. My goal is to make the dog feel safe, happy, and cared for in their familiar environment.

“Dawn was reliable, responsible, and personable. I know Toby was happy to see her and we were happy to know that our little one was well looked after in our absence. We would definitely like to use her services again. Thank you, Dawn!”
