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 👍🏽”

“Sahajpreet is a phenomenal dog walker who I highly recommend. My senior dog struggles with anxiety and takes a while to warm up to new people, so replacing our long-term walker felt like an impossible task. Sahajpreet completely exceeded my expectations. During our meet-and-greet, her natural connection with him was obvious right away. She understands how to handle sensitive, older dogs with the perfect balance of patience and care. I feel completely confident leaving my pup in her hands!”

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: Having had pets my whole life, I have come to love going on walks, cuddling on the couch and playing a great game of fetch. Whether your pet is shy, energetic, prefers the company of people over other dogs or anything in between, I will love them. I'm comfortable giving medication, feeding raw and following any structure or routine you have in place. I want your pet to be comfortable and safe so please reach out and I would love to meet you and your pet(s) I currently work full time but I have a pretty quiet personal life. I'm available pretty much any time outside of work to visit and spend time with your pets. I can follow schedules provided and help your pets maintain a routine they are used to. Just let me know how I can help them feel comfortable and safe. I can also send pictures or updates as needed.

About: I have innate pet handling skills, and I have extensive experience in handling not only dogs but also exotic pets such as hedgehogs, gerbils, guinea pigs, rabbits, praying mantises, horses. Also basic knowledge and experience in dog training. I am a mother of two children and I believe that every human being should grow up with a pet. I can take care of your pet at home as part of our family, at home it would be very comfortable and with the affection it needs from all the members of the family. Following the routine to which you are accustomed so as not to alter your normal activity. Care will depend on each client, always seeking their well-being, comfort and safety.

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.

“Elise is fantastic. Highly reliable and took excellent care with my dog. Would recommend.”

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.

About: Ever since I was really young, animals have been such a passion of mine! I started my own neighbourhood dog walking business when I was 7 years old and the love for animals has only grown! I am starting out on this platform to find some employment over the summer as I am a 22 year old, full time Psychology student, currently attending CBC in Abbotsford! Experience with animals has been gained through volunteering at the SPCA, Chilliwack Cat Safe Haven, Elkview Therapeutic Riding Academy, walking/petsitting my neighbours dogs throughout my childhood, and always being willing to care for a friend's dog or cat when necessary. I am reliable, a quick learner, and a great communicator! I would love to get to know your pet and their needs so that I can bring a joyful, caring, and fulfilling environment where you can feel reassured that they are in great hands! My experience has been sporadic throughout my life, investing my time more in some seasons than others, so due to this I put 5 years experience as my baseline. I have a very flexible schedule over the summer as I am off school and actively looking for work, which allows me to be available for a wide range of pet care needs throughout the week. I am able to provide daytime visits, dog walking, feeding, playtime, socialization, and consistent companionship, as well as photo updates so you can feel reassured while you’re away. Because my current housing does not allow pets, I am only able to provide overnight care within your home. This also allows your pet to remain comfortable in their familiar environment and routine. I am committed to being reliable, communicative, and attentive to your pet’s specific needs to ensure they feel safe, cared for, and loved. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine are my top priorities. Since my housing does not allow pets, all care takes place in your home, where your pet feels most secure and relaxed. I make it a priority to follow your instructions closely regarding feeding schedules, walks, medications, house rules, and any specific preferences your pet has. I aim to create a calm, respectful environment by maintaining your pet’s normal routine, keeping spaces clean, and ensuring doors, gates, and harnesses are always secure. I am attentive to your pet’s behaviour and well-being, and I will communicate promptly if anything seems out of the ordinary. You can also expect regular photo and message updates for peace of mind while you’re away. I treat both your pet and your home with care, responsibility, and respect, so you can feel confident they are in safe and trustworthy hands.

“Sarah was excellent with our dog Daisy! She definitely made her feel comfortable and worked on some leash training with her too! She gave us plenty of updates and eased our minds while we were away for the weekend. I would definitely recommend her for dog walking or house sitting.”

About: I worked at animal emerge clinic of the Fraser Valley for almost 4 years and I love taking care of animals and giving them the love that they deserve. I am pretty flexible right now, I start dance again in September so I will update this when I know my schedule a little bit better. BUT just message me and usually I can make it work if I don’t have any other house settings going on. I can be pretty flexible and whatever your needs are for your pets. I will always do my best to make sure your dog is looked after.

“Zoe was great. First time using her she came over for a drop-in visit with a dog walk. She sent me photos and updates when it was all done. Dogs were happy with us her again.”

About: Hi! A little bit about me, I’ve been looking after family and friends dogs for over a year. I figured with the summer getting hotter and everyone busy I would love to help you and your furry loved ones get their walks and stay hydrated while your at work or vacation:) I’m currently working part time in Maple Ridge, but have 2 days off within the week always. The schedule is sometimes different but can always let you know ahead of time. I’m usually always free afternoons or after 6 I will always make sure to ask if there is any accommodations needed or rules before entering or leaving the property. Ex. If the the dog is allowed outside I will make sure if a fence needs to be locked or closed a certain way.

About: I have owned dogs and cats and farm animals since I was a kid I will love your pets as if they were my own. I am currently a stay at home mom of a 6 and 7 year old and they are in school full time and part time I have a very friendly dog, hikes that are on long leashes, daily photos and updates and even videos of your pups on hikes and other adventures

“Faith was great with my dog. During the meet and greet you could really tell she was a dog person, Chloe took to her really well and acted like she had known her for ages. Faith is a super clear communicator and has great energy. I fully trust her with taking care of Chloe and I will definitely be booking with her again.”

“Never feel more comfortable before to left my babies with some until I meet Bobby, She is very responsable and a lovely person with Bella & Bailey. I totally recommend her. Thank you Bobby!”

Carlos H.

“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: For as long as i can remember, I've always loved dogs. Pretty much all of my family members had them when I was growing up. But my mom always said no to me getting one. So everywhere I went, when I saw any dog I would always have to go out of my way to say hi to the puppy (I still do this to this day). As I got older I started to realize that everywhere i went, every dog that I would meet would come right to me for love, even if the dog was usually afraid of people. So I felt like I needed to do something with that. I have always had such a passion working with and being around animals. I have previously worked at a doggy day care for over a year, and I've also previously worked at mr pets in Abbotsford for over 4 years, being the main person taking care of all different types of animals. When your pets are in my care I will always show them nothing but love and compassion. I promise, your babies will be in amazing hands. I will play outside (if you have the space in your yard) with your puppies so they get all their energy out and I will take them on walks around your neighborhood (if leash trained) when house sitting or if asked to go for walks! Your babies will get the utmost attention and cuddles while they are in my care that I promise you will never have a thing to worry about. Whether I am coming to just take your dog out for a walk, to spend some time with them or to watch them while you are away, your babies will be very well taken care of. With lots of playtime, cuddles and exercise. ( I love all animals, so depending on what type of pet you have, we can work out prices for the animal(s) you'd need taken care of) 🐶🐱🐹🐭🦔🐇🐍🐦🐠🦜🦎 PLEASE READ. I have 5 cats of my own that are not dog friendly. So unfortunately I cannot dog sit in my own home. But I am more than happy to come to your home and watch your fur babies as i find it keeps rhe fur babies more comfortable in their safe space. Please if you are interested in any animal care, feel free to message me to set up an in person meet and great so I can meet you and your fur babies and we can proceed from there!

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: .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.
