Dog Walking Nanoose Bay

“Our dog had a great walk with Marysa! She was really easy to communicate with and very responsive.”

About: Hey! I’m a Veterinary Assistant with 4 years of experience working in clinic. This has taught me many valuable skills including post surgical / wound care, administration of various medications, dietary needs, and many other pet caring skills. I also have spent a great deal of time caring for my own elderly doggy who recently passed from cancer. This in conjunction with my training has given me a great deal of experience working with high need pets who require complicated care. I’ve also done some casual cat and dog sitting for family, friends, and coworkers. Since my own doggie passed I have been missing my pet time and thought this would be the perfect way to get my fix! :) This September I’ll be going into full time school, as a student I will need to be on the VIU campus for 2-8 hours daily on weekdays. I’ll be available for pet care before and after class, and all day on weekends. :) As someone who has worked with pets of all kinds with varying medical and physical needs you can rest assured that I will have both the skills and knowledge to give your pet the absolute best care!

“My dog immediately took to Courtney and was excited to see her the next visit! So pleased!”

“Would absolutely recommend Nicole and hope to use her service again. My dogs just loved her and her son was the sweetest dog walking companion.”

“Natalie is amazing with dogs, including my 104 pound English Labrador, Duke. Her dog Kali is a sweetheart, very well trained, and our two dogs got along beautifully from the start. I’ve used Rover for many years in 3 different countries, and Natalie is one of the few 5 star handlers on my list.”

“Cristina was absolutely incredible. She was reliable, she communicated and planned in advance with me prior to the visit. Post visit she touched base letting me know how it went and sent pictures. I have a reactive dog on the leash and was nervous on how she would be. She was fantastic with both of my dogs. I would 400 percent recommend Cristina to anyone and will definitely be booking again.”

About: I’ve taken care of my own two large dogs since I was a kid. Helping with their training, playtime, walks, and overall care. I have also managed to recognize and provide assistance to my one dog who struggles with separation anxiety. I’m a very helpful being who’s observant, and present with each pet. Caring for each one in the puppy stage, all the way to their senior stages. I currently have plenty of free time and would love to help people in the community in finding trusted pet care for their furry ones. I’m always open to discussing days outside of my preferred ones as well. I live in a more semi rural area, allowing for loads of open trails and beaches to walk my furry babies and enjoy their playtime. While keeping them on a feeding schedule, and generally taking them out for breaks on a schedule as well. However I also recognize the signs my dog gives for his different needs.

“Have had a great experience with Danielle. Our pup. Loves her and she’s always on time with her walks. Will continue to use Danielle for our dogs walks”

About: While I'm new to Rover, I bring decades of real-life experience caring for both animals and homes. I'm committed to providing personalized, dependable care while building lasting relationships with the families I serve. I provide professional pet care services on Vancouver Island, BC, in the Okotoks/Calgary area and in communities along my travel route between British Columbia and Alberta throughout the year. If you're looking for a trusted sitter for one-time or recurring care while I'm in your area, I'd love the opportunity to connect. As a lifelong pet owner, I understand that every pet has their own unique personality—from playful and social to shy, independent, anxious or sensitive. I create a calm, predictable environment where pets feel safe, respected and cared for, taking the time to read their cues and build trust at their own pace. I'm experienced caring for puppies, adult and senior pets, as well as pets with special care needs. This includes administering medications, supporting pets with mobility challenges, and providing calm, patient care for anxious, fearful or reactive pets while maintaining the routines that help them feel secure in their own familiar environment. My calm, observant nature allows me to notice subtle changes in behaviour, appetite or energy and I'll always keep you informed so you can enjoy peace of mind while you're away. I understand the trust involved in leaving your beloved pet—and your home—in someone else's care. I bring a reliable, respectful and detail-oriented approach to every booking. For overnight stays, I travel fully equipped with my own portable bed, bedding, towels and cooler, allowing me to settle in comfortably while keeping your home tidy and minimizing disruption. My goal is for both you and your furry family members to feel relaxed, comfortable and confident while you're away, knowing they're receiving compassionate, attentive care every step of the way. Additional Care Needs Please note: My Puppy Rate also applies to pets requiring additional time, attention or specialized care. This may include: 🐾 Puppies requiring frequent potty breaks, training reinforcement or close supervision. 🐾 Senior pets needing extra assistance with mobility, more frequent outings or medication administration. 🐾 Special-needs pets requiring medication, mobility support or individualized care. 🐾 Pets experiencing high anxiety, fearfulness or reactivity who benefit from a calm, patient approach and extra time to build trust. Every pet is unique, and I'm always happy to discuss your pet's specific needs before booking to ensure they receive the level of care they deserve. As a Registered Holistic Nutritionist, Certified Natural Supplement Advisor, Energy Therapist and Certified Pet First Aid Provider, with ongoing education in Pet Wellness, I bring a unique blend of professional knowledge, practical experience and compassionate, heart-led care—treating every pet as if they were my own. As someone who is location-independent and runs a remote Wholistic Wellness business. I have the flexibility to travel and spend meaningful time with animals in their home. I create a calm, safe environment by following your pet’s routine, offering attentive care and helping them feel secure, settled and supported in your home.

About: I’m a past pet owner. I've recently looked after my sisters two small dogs for long weekends or a week at a time in BC while they were away. I’ve even looked after a relatives house, 2 Great Danes, 1 med sized dog and a few cats for a couple weeks when I was a kid with my elderly grandmother. Big responsibility! I’ve also looked after a neighbours cat for a couple weeks twice a day for feeds, daily cat litter cleaning, and music turned on and off with cuddle time. I’m bondable! I’ve volunteered and work for police forces over the years so no record etc. I believe animals have souls and need love and to be cared for. I’m willing to go to your home and water, feed and take your fur baby out for bathroom breaks and a cuddle. This will take a load off your mind as well as physically for your fur babies. I may not have years of getting paid and labelled as “professional” but I’m experienced when loving animals and using common sense to look after them and your home. Any questions, just ask. Cheers. I am a mortgage broker and can work from home. This gives me the flexibility to be with your pets mostly around the clock. Taking pets for walks and out door breaks when required. I will obliviously, learn and note what is needed as per the owner of the pet. I will make sure the pet feels loved and not alone while the owner is away. I will look after the residents as well. Pets are fed and watered in a timely manner and working with the owners schedule as required.

“This was our first walk with Karuna and we are thrilled to have found her. She’s got such a lovely presence, and I’m sure our animals would agree. Our rescue dog can be very reactive to new folks, but Karuna is patient and understanding and he is quickly becoming comfortable with her. We really appreciate Karuna’s obvious experience and comfort level with both dogs and cats and are looking forward to more dog walking and house sitting with her in the near future. Thanks Karuna!”

“Nicole has been amazing! It was my first time using a dog walker for my boy and she did wonderfully. Lots of messages to coordinate and enjoyed our interactions. By the last visit my dog was waiting at the door for her vehicle to roll up ❤️”

“Ashley was great with Pippin on their walks. She asked lots of questions to get to know Pip, and Pip was pooped after the walk and some play! 10/10 will rebook ☺️”

About: I have been around pets my whole life. From a cat in my teens to a Bernese mountain dog. I have always loved being around animals. I currently work remote. I know schedules can be crazy and emergencies happen. That Is why I am making myself available anytime to play with your pets! It's all about them. I believe in coming in with great energy but not coming in too strong. I will make sure to fully understand your pet so they feel safe with me.

About: I've cared for a few dogs over the last several years. Neighbours, family and friends have relied on me to walk, feed, house and love their dogs. I'm currently working part-time, so I have plenty of time to play with your pups. I am free almost every afternoon and evening. Weekends after 1pm and Tuesday to Thursday I'm available all day. I am happy to come to your home to care for your pup, or take her for her walks. My yard is fenced, but my cats are territorial so I couldn't invite your pups over.

“We had an amazing experience with Angela! She walked our two big, somewhat challenging dogs six times and did a fantastic job every single visit. Her communication was excellent, she was reliable, and she handled our dogs with confidence and care. We’ll definitely be booking with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, skilled dog walker. Thanks, Angela!”
