Pet Sitting in Nanaimo

“As always, so grateful to Anastasia for her kind care of our two cats. Loved the photos she sent from each of her visits, with little notes to keep us up-to-date. Everything in our home was exactly as we'd left it, and the furfaces were happy and healthy. Will continue to book with Anastasia, and recommend her highly.”

“Sara went over and above with our Golden - Who definitely had some separation anxiety while we were gone. She sent us plenty of updates and asked questions when needed. Highly recommended!!”

“Sam was a great catsitter! She was friendly, responsive and accommodating when I had to reach out to her for some schedule changes. She was lovely to Maple, my kitty, and he looked like he had a great time! Even got some really lovely pictures of Maple from her. I would definitely recommend her 😊”

“Where to begin, there are no words! I am so grateful to Jimena for the love and compassion she gave our boys which she extended to our family, while looking after them. The situation with our boys was very challenging and she went above and beyond the call of "Rover duty". Jimena truly has a gift and a love for animals that shines through. Thank you for everything. Your are amazing!”

About: I have volunteered at a vet clinic, as well as volunteering at an animal rescue group. Recently adopted my very own feral cats Max and Mickey. I do 3 overnight shifts a week, so can spend all day with your animals making sure that they are having lots of walks, cuddles and play time. I only pet sit in clients home, due to apartment regulations as well as I have two cats. I always do a meet and greet with each client to discuss the pet’s needs and the best ways to take care of them.

About: We are a caring and energetic couple passionate about animals and dedicated to providing a safe, loving, and fun environment for your pets. What makes us stand out is our strong experience and complementary skills: Coraline holds a veterinary assistant diploma from France and has professional knowledge in animal health, first aid, and administering medical care. She has cared for a wide range of animals, including dogs, cats, horses, goats, and rabbits: giving her a deep understanding of different species' needs and behaviors. Together, we have extensive experience with dogs of all ages, from playful puppies to senior companions, including basic training like housebreaking, leash manners, and socialization. Being active and outdoorsy, we love providing fun, stimulating activities like long walks, play sessions, and enrichment tailored to your pet’s personality. Valentin has a very flexible schedule and is available throughout the day to provide attentive, loving care for your pets. Coraline has a flexible job, giving us plenty of time together to focus on the animals we look after. We are both big fans of morning walks and love starting the day with fresh air and exercise, which your dog will surely enjoy too! Thanks to our flexibility and shared passion for animals, we can easily adapt to your pet’s daily routines and special needs, making sure they feel comfortable, loved, and well cared for at all times. We have a lovely home located in the heart of Departure Bay. Our house features: non-fenced backyard and a large, secure terrace where pets can relax, play, and enjoy the fresh air under our close supervision. When pets stay with us, they are treated like family, they have access to cozy indoor spaces, plenty of playtime, and lots of cuddles. When caring for pets at the owner's home, we respect their routine and environment, making sure they feel safe and comfortable. We adapt to each pet's habits, whether it's feeding schedules, walks, playtime, or simply offering companionship.

“Jen is always helping us in our time of need. I had a last minute family emergency and Jen gladly took on feeding schedules 2x a day for us. She’s amazing about updating us on our fur babies, it puts a smile on our face everytime we see all of the photos of her playing with our kitties. We always know our cats are in safe hands with Jen”

About: With the shared responsibilities of owning a family dog, I have learned how to properly take care of our beloved furry friends. In addition, I have been a reliable dog-walker and dog-sitter for family and friends over the years. I enjoy long walks, in which I would love to have a furry companion to join me. If your dog needs the extra exercise or energy release, I am a college student athlete and I can also jog along with your dog. I will respect the routines and environment that you have implemented for your dog in your home. I will care for your dog depending on how you have your space set up.

“Alex did a great job taking care of our little cat while we were away on christmas vacation. Very dependable and sent daily updates and pictures of the fluff bundle. Would highly recommend and look forward to booking with Alex in the future.”

About: Growing up I’ve always had dogs and cats. When I moved to Nanaimo for school I missed my pets so much, which caused me to start volunteering with Elder Dog Nanaimo in 2022. I’m a 3ed year criminology student studying full time at VIU. I volunteer every Saturday and Sunday; however, it is only for 2 hours each day. I believe in making a connection with your pet and following their normal routine. I am great at following instructions to keep your dog/cat happy and calm.

“Melissa was FANTASTIC! So thoughtful and really cared about our cats. It was the first time we had been away since adopting them, and I was a little stressed but we received great updates and pictures! It put me right at ease. You can tell right away Melissa really cares for your fur babies :) Our kitties were very well looked after!”

“Delightful with the cats! They really enjoyed her visits and Samantha took great care with them. I highly recommend and would book her in the future. Grateful she was available with really short notice!”
