Dog Walking Mission

“Our family was thoroughly impressed with the Rover App and the ease and convenience that we were able to find a dog walker to look after our little Louie while we were away on the Christmas Holidays. What was even better than the App was the Dog Walker Vanessa that we selected. She was fantastic with Louie and communicated daily with us and my Mother to coordinate with her schedule. We could not have asked for a better walker for our dog, she was absolutely wonderful. We sincerely recommend her for anyone considering a dog walker 👍🏽”

About: I have owned dogs, cats, and birds since I was 10 years old. And I have had a deep connection to nature and its beautiful creatures for even longer. Animals have always seemed to naturally gravitate toward me, and I’m the guy at the social event you’ll find in the corner petting the dogs. I have been told I have “golden retriever energy”, so you know I can keep up with your more energetic animals. Walks will be daily, and dare I say your pet will have so much fun they won’t even miss you? (don’t worry though, daily updates will still be provided). I’ve been providing pet care to friends, family, and acquaintances for as long as I can remember… and now that I have more free time on my hands, I thought it’d be a great opportunity to branch out and offer my services to the masses. :) I’m currently a student with a schedule that is not too demanding. My 6 hour school days still allow me to ensure daily walks and lots of love and attention, are things you can count on I am incredibly responsible and respectful while I’m in your home, and will treat it like my own. Don’t be surprised if it is cleaner than you left it, as I like to keep my hands busy. I will pay extremely close attention to detail - if your pet is a runner, rest assured the gates will always be triple checked. If your pet has medical issues, medication will happily and carefully be administered as per your instruction. If your pet is anxious about your departure, extra care will be taken to ensure as much time spent in the home as physically possible.

“Sarah provided great photo and video updates while i was away. It was wonderful to see both and i felt happy knowing my pup is being treated kindly gently and is safe”

About: I’ve grown up around dogs throughout my childhood. I currently have a young dog of my own and have experience training with her. I am comfortable working with different breeds,sizes, and ages. I have previously volunteered with the SPCA. I work full-time four days a week currently but very early mornings. Evenings are very open and weekends as well. With enough advance notice I am able to work with your schedule. I have experience watching dogs in homes and can crate your dog if needed. I am active and love taking dogs for walks if you’d like. I am good with working with anxious dogs.

“Faith was the absolute best with my pup. She is responsible, passionate, and caring, qualities one looks for when entrusting someone to not only care for their family member, but entering their household. I am so lucky to have been able to work with Faith and definitely will be a returning customer. Thank you Faith and Thank You Rover!”

“Juno was very happy to leave for his walk with Sheena and he came back ready to relax (Juno is a high energy boy and needs a good walk to tire him out). I could see that Juno felt comfortable with Sheena right from the start and we will definitely be booking future walks with Sheena.”

About: I've been a long time dog lover and my family has always had pets growing up. From birds to bunnies to puppies, I've had my fair share of pets in my home. Currently, we’ve got two small dogs at home. I strongly believe that our pets are equal members of the family like us, and deserve to be treated so. Over the last few years, I've been repeatedly asked to dog, cat, and house sit by my friends and family. They were great learning experiences for me since I learned how to care for different animals with all sorts of personalities. I'm able to care for puppies, seniors, cats, and dogs of all sizes. I can administer medication orally or into ears and I consider myself quite good at potty training puppies. While I am younger and still learning, I know I'm very responsible and I tend to just click with most animals. FYI - Muskaan is my first name and Hannah is my middle, I go by Hannah, trying to figure out how to change it on my profile I’m currently a full time student at UFV so my studies are my top priority. However, I’m great at managing my time and my schedule is flexible. Currently, I’m available for pet sitting any day of the week. Due to the lack of space and the fact that my dogs are anxious, I cannot offer services in my own home. But, according to what you, your animals, and your space need - I'm able to accommodate and adapt my care. My number one priority is your pup's health and safety at all times. I'm able to take them out for potty breaks and walks as often as needed. I'm experienced with different types of harnesses and collars so they'll always be secure in my care. Also, I LOVE playing with and attempting* to train dogs so you can be sure they'll be mentally and physically stimulated with me. Regarding more specific needs (ie. they like to escape, not allowed on furniture, dietary needs, etc etc) I'm able to accommodate for them. I'm well versed with all sorts of dogs with different personalities so your wish is my command!

About: Hi! I’m a dedicated animal lover who truly enjoys spending time with pets of all personalities and energy levels. Whether your dog needs a long walk, a fun hike, or just some company while you’re away, I’ve got it covered. I have experience with high-energy dogs (I have one myself 😅), so I understand the importance of exercise, structure, and patience. I treat every pet like my own and always make sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for. You can expect reliable care, lots of love, and photo updates so you never miss a moment 🐾📸 I’ve been riding horses since I was five years old, i currently have 2 cats, a puppy, 2 goats, and a bunny so I am very comfortable with most animals. My daily routine revolves around caring for animals, and I genuinely love what I do. I’m flexible and available for drop-ins, walks, and in-home care throughout the week. Whether you’re at work or away on vacation, I’m happy to make sure your pets are cared for, exercised, and getting lots of attention. While I’m unable to host pets in my home (I have two cats and a very energetic puppy), I take pride in providing reliable, respectful care in your home where your pets are most comfortable. I treat every home and pet like my own—keeping routines consistent, following instructions closely, and making sure your pet feels safe and stress-free while you’re away. Communication is important to me, so you’ll always get updates and photos!

About: I've always loved dogs and have always had a passion for them, I grew up around dogs and have experience working in a doggy daycare facility aswell. I'm a strong young man and take pride in my ability to keep dogs safe in any kind of situation... Dog parks have had me around crazy encounters and experiences and I wouldn't recommend going to a dog park to anyone. I'm high energy, but a calm energy if that makes sense. I can go go go and be on my feet all day, I would love to be your dog guy! My availability is limited during the week as I'm an iron worker, but you can reach out and maybe we can figure somthing out for you. I'm self employed so I can be home alot... I will be basing my schedule off of clients needs. I would love to care for your pup! If you allow me to care for your dog you can trust they will have lots of bathroom breaks, walks and fun along the way.

About: .Note on my name: If you're seeing reviews under Wendy, that's my former legal name—I changed it to Maria in 2020. Feel free to ask if you have any questions! Hi! I'm Maria, a dedicated animal lover and pet care provider in Vancouver. I've owned dogs in the past and have plenty of hands-on experience babysitting and caring for pups of all ages and personalities. At home, I live with my two sweet, well-behaved girls who adore pets and are gentle with them. We're usually around and would love to welcome your furry family member into our home! I'm very accommodating and always prioritize the owner's wishes. Your pet's safety, happiness, and comfort are my top priorities. I treat every home like my own—shoes off at the door, prompt arrival/exit notifications via Rover Cards, and thorough cleanup of any messes (accidents included). What you can expect from me: Daily feeding and fresh, cold water Clean bowls and litter scooping (if applicable) Regular walks and plenty of playtime Light household chores while I'm there (e.g., tidying pet areas) Frequent check-ins and photo/text updates so you never miss a moment For shy, timid, or cautious pets, I take a gentle approach: slow introductions, treats, soft talking, and patience. If they're not ready to play right away, that's okay—we'll go at their pace. I'm an open book and happy to answer any questions or share more details! If your location is farther away, extra travel fees may apply—just let me know. I look forward to meeting you and your pet! Message me anytime—I'm quick to reply and excited to help make your pet's stay wonderful. Your pet is in caring, responsible hands. 🐾 My schedule is arranged to prioritize my family's needs, including supporting my older children. Due to my daughter's ongoing fear of large dogs following a past incident, I am able to provide overnight pet sitting, boarding, and in-home care exclusively for small dogs and other animals (such as cats, small mammals, birds, etc.). For larger dogs, I am fully available and experienced in offering daytime services, including walks, exercise, potty breaks, playtime, and drop-in check-ins. I prioritize each pet's comfort, safety, and routine while delivering reliable, compassionate care. I treat your pets as if they were my own, always following your specific wishes and preferences. All I ask is that you provide clear written instructions, along with any special tips, tricks, or routines that help your pet feel most comfortable and happy. While you’re away, I also take care of your home—handling dishes, laundry, tidying up, and keeping everything in good order. Your pet will receive plenty of playtime, affection, and attentive care. I promise they will be truly loved and well looked after. Throughout your trip, I’ll send you daily updates, photos, videos (when appropriate), and any questions that come up so you always feel connected and reassured.

With previous experience in Veterinary Technology in a clinical setting, I am comfortable providing medications in any form, as well as handling pets of all sizes.
