Pet Sitting in Metchosin

“This is my second time booking Rover services with Vanessa and I couldn't be more pleased. Vanessa makes it so easy and goes above and beyond to make sure the pets are happy and the owner too. The cute photos of happy pets through the app are the cherry on the cake :-)”

“We’re so happy with the care Chantelle provided for Tubby! She was responsive, reliable, and went above and beyond by tracking how much Tubby ate during each visit. That extra attention meant so much to us. Highly recommend and would definitely book her again!”

“My cats were well loved and cared for. Lion and Gabe took to Tayor right away. Taylor was punctual, responded quickly to messages and sent lots of pictures. I would highly recommend Taylor as a petsitter!”

About: I’ve grown up with dogs of all sizes and have years of hands-on experience caring for pets for friends and neighbors. I bring a calm, attentive energy to every visit and take pride in creating a safe, positive experience for each animal. Your pet’s comfort, routine, and happiness are always my top priorities. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to fit dog walks in throughout the day. I’m typically available on weekdays, with some evening and weekend availability as well. I do my best to accommodate your dog’s routine and keep things consistent for them. I care for every pet as if they were my own, always prioritizing their safety and comfort. I pay close attention to routines, feeding instructions, and behavior to ensure consistency and reduce stress. I’m mindful in clients’ homes, keeping everything clean, secure, and respectful while creating a calm, loving environment for each pet.

“Our kitty loves Amy! Our anxious elderly boy is so comfortable with Amy, we always come home to a happy, well cared-for kitty. And we love the photos and Rover Cards at each drop-in visit. Amy goes that extra mile and we would rebook her without hesitation.”

“Kaitlyn took excellent care of our two cats while we were away for two weeks. She provided updates with photos for each visit, and was even able to make friends with the one who is really shy and hides from anyone other than family 😻 We could tell that she genuinely cared about their well-being and was very kind to them. Thank you Kaitlyn!”

About: Animals have been a huge part of my life for as long as I can remember. I’ve cared for and raised animals of all kinds, from puppies and rescue dogs to farm animals and small pets. My own rescue dog, Indigo, taught me so much about patience, compassion, and attentive care as I supported her through both IVDD and cancer. Through that experience, I became very comfortable with medication routines, mobility support, changing needs, and providing calm, loving care through every stage of an animal’s life. I’ve also raised puppies and lived on a farm where I regularly cared for large farm dogs and cats. Over the years, I’ve had experience caring for many different animals, including parrots, snakes, hamsters, fish, rabbits, and other small pets. I genuinely love getting to know each animal’s unique personality and needs, and I always strive to make them feel safe, understood, and cared for while their owners are away. I work from home and have a very flexible schedule, which allows me to give pets lots of attention, consistency, and care throughout the day. I’m also a very active person and usually spend hours outside walking every day, so I’d genuinely love some furry companionship along the way - whether your dog prefers long adventures, slower sniff walks, or lots of playtime and attention. I live in a detached home with a fully fenced backyard and no other animals in the home, creating a calm and safe environment for your pet. I take animal care very seriously and have always treated every pet - whether my own or someone else’s - with patience, attentiveness, and genuine love. I cared for my sweet dog Indigo through both IVDD and cancer, which gave me firsthand experience supporting animals with medical needs, mobility limitations, medication routines, and changing comfort levels. That experience taught me that every animal is unique, and I’m happy to adapt to their individual routines, personalities, and care needs to help them feel safe and comfortable.

“Jason was amazing to our dogs, we were so worried to go on vacations and leave our dogs behind but Jason was truly great. The dogs had the best time playing and going out with him, it was a fun time for them. He always updated us and we felt that they were really well taken care off. We will definitely rebook next time we are away”

About: I have had animals my entire life and have been extremely involved in training and ensuring they get the best care possible! I have done a lot of dog training in reactivity, separation anxiety, and use positive reinforcement to ensure that the relationship between me and my pet(s) is built on love and trust. With every new pet, I let them approach me and I build a foundation of trust so that obedience is not something forced but given! I work part time but I have blocked out those days so that it won’t interfere, but other wise I work 7 hour shifts so if your pet is staying when I am working, they would have to be comfortable being home alone for those hours I care for my pets by using positive reinforcement and consistency. Consistency is key and is very beneficial for ensuring my pets can succeed in all aspects of their lives. I understand dog body language and know when to approach, let them be, or let them come to me. It’s about listening to boundaries, just like with us humans!

About: I have at least 10 years of experience with dogs, I have had all kinds of animals growing up and currently have one dog. I have dog walked, dog sat, and watched overnight for my family, friends, as well as friends of friends and family friends. I get along very well with most animals and love to be around them. I know their needs and what they can and cannot have. I am currently working part time 2 days a week , so I can do week days and weekends depending on day, mostly at anytime but we will always have a chat before hand. Also if you are needing/wanting a day that’s not on my availability just send me a message and I can double check my schedule and see if I can make time for you. My schedule on the app is sometimes not accurate as my schedule changes often with my job so just send me a message with whatever day you were looking for I cannot have pets over at my home due to my own pet but I am more then happy to look after your pets at your home and I can take care of any needs that your pet requires

About: I’ve grown up surrounded by dogs and have spent years fostering and caring for rescues, which means I’m very comfortable with all kinds of personalities—from shy and anxious dogs to high-energy pups. I have experience with puppies, senior dogs, and administering oral medication, and I’m confident helping dogs adjust to new environments at their own pace. I’ve also worked on leash training to make walks more enjoyable and stress-free. I truly love getting to know each dog’s little quirks and routines. My goal is always to make them feel safe, happy, and right at home while you’re away. I have a flexible summer schedule with only occasional classes, so I’m able to dedicate plenty of time to pet care. I always do my best to accommodate each dog’s needs and their owner’s schedule. Pet care is already part of my daily routine, including walks, outdoor time, and lots of attention. When caring for dogs in my home, they have access to a fully fenced yard for safe outdoor time, as well as companionship from my two friendly dogs. I also have a nearby hiking trail, which is perfect for walks and added exercise. When caring for pets in their own home, I stick closely to their usual routine to help them feel comfortable, secure, and well cared for.

About: I have 15 years caring for my own dogs, 10 years working in a pet store, and hands-on experience with agility puppy training. I’m confident handling high-energy breeds, enrichment, routines, and safety-focused care. I’ve previously had an Icelandic sheepdog and border collie mix, each with their own special needs such as extreme allergies, behavioural triggers and high prey drive. I know the challenges these breeds face and want to help you out as much as possible in easing their energy. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. As a masters student, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to plan walks, check-ins, and sits consistently. I prioritize reliability, routine, and making time for each pet’s individual needs. I prioritize safety, trust, and a calm environment in every home I care for. I follow owner instructions closely, maintain routines, secure doors and leashes, and ensure pets feel comfortable and respected. I keep spaces clean, monitor behavior, and provide regular updates for peace of mind.

“Jacqui is phenomenal! She is so good with my kitten and he loves her. Definitely feels great to have someone reliable taking care of your kitten while you’re working!”

About: * A little note and update. Unfortunately my mom passed away last year and I have moved to Langford BC for a new beginning. So to any previous clients from Burlington that I haven’t spoken to before my move - I’m unfortunately no longer living there. It was a pleasure to work with you ! Everything else below holds true. Please read my profile carefully before booking to make sure I’m a good fit for your dog. I have over 18 years experience caring for animals. I’m an intuitive energy ( Reiki Master ) healer which allows me to connect and understand your dog’s needs at a deeper level. If your dog is nervous or afraid of new people and/ or surroundings, i’m able to calm them with a little energy treatment. I also have many years of teaching and practicing first aid under my belt, as well as 11years of caring for my first dog Charlie. Over all, I have a tremendous love and understanding of animals, which I believe makes me a great choice for caring for your beloved fur babies. I know how incredibly precious they are to you, and will ensure they are loved and cared for as if they were my own. I am writing a film, doing pack walks and running my energy healing business from home - which allows me a flexible schedule to give your animals the care they need. For overnight / daycare : we live in a coach house in Langford BC - a close drive to Royal Oak Beach. It’s such a beautiful, safe neighbourhood to explore and go for walks. Sooke Hills Wilderness Park is just 3mins away. Note there is a set of stairs leading up to my living space so for those dogs that can’t do stairs I might not be a good fit. I am available to sit at your home though if it’s easier. I’m currently working from home writing my film. My schedule is flexible, so I have plenty of time for play and walks. Your pet is always my first priority though and I will customize my days around their schedule and care. Dogs are always leashed and well cared for when out for walks. I don’t have a yard or anywhere they can escape from. Their safety will always be my first priority.

“Thank you so much for dropping in to visit Trixie and Lexie! Super thankful for the the photo updates!”

“Lots of attention and extra care for our anxious ladies 💕 photos looked like they were very happy to visit and friends by the end of the weekend 🤗”

About: Animals have been a cherished part of my life since childhood, when I had the joy of growing up with 2 dogs. The pure happiness animals bring to me remains truly unmatched by anything else in life. I have been professionally pet sitting for 2 years and I have had the experience to care for many breeds and ages. From energetic husky pups to a blind senior lab that required medication and more specific care. I absolutely love animals and miss being around them when I'm not caring for them or walking them. I am able to do walks, drop-in visits, or live-in pet sitting based on my calender. I am always happy to make new animal friends! I treat every animal as it was my own. I have a deep love for animals and treat them with affection. I understand each animal has different levels of learning, communication, and trust and I take the time to learn about every animal I take care of. I love building relationships with pets and animals.

About: I have been caring for animals in general since I was 10 years old. I love petting them and taking care of them. I also love teaching them different ways to respond to calls and, above all, taking care of them as if they were another member of the family. I’m working Monday to Friday 7-4PM, so I’d be available after this day time during week & full weekend. Most of the time we will be chillin’ o just hiking/walking around. 🌳🐕‍🦺 I’d do both if necessary. I’d rather to have them in their own space for avoiding stressful situations ofc. I’m currently living in Langford 📍BC

About: Hi fellow dog lovers! I’m Olivia — a lifelong animal enthusiast with over 15 years of hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats. From growing up helping neighbors with training to pet sitting for friends and family, animals have always been a huge part of my life. I’m currently training my own dog, Adonis, to become a service dog, and I’m on the path to becoming a certified dog trainer myself! Adonis is a sweet, playful companion who loves making new friends, and your pup will be in great company. I offer 24/7 supervision in a cozy, crate-free home (unless crating is your preference), with plenty of mental and physical enrichment. Your dog will enjoy daily walks, adventures on nearby trails, beach or lake visits, and lots of stimulation through play and exploration. With multiple cooling stations and AC to keep everyone comfortable, your fur baby will feel right at home — even welcome to snuggle up and sleep beside me! I can’t wait to meet you and your furry companion and would be honored to give them the care, love, and attention they deserve while you’re away. I’m currently working part time. So I have 4 days out of the week that is centred around animals. I have my own dog that I take for daily walks and training sessions so your fur babies will get lots of play time and exercise. I keep my home clean and organized so my dog can’t reach anything he shouldn’t. My dog is very friendly and can keep your fur babies entertained. I have a crate if needed and I can send picture/ video updates if wanted.
