“Jody is FABULOUS! If you have a cat, you want Jody taking care of them. It's such a relief to travel and know my boy is with someone I trust who treats him like the princess he is. Jody always sends great photos and thorough updates. Will be using her for the rest of time”

“Our second time having Amanda care for our two cats went perfectly! We loved the thorough update + cat photos detailing her drop-in visit and greatly appreciated Amanda's expertise in administering pet medication as one of our cats has required pills both times we've been out of town. Both of our temperamental fur babies have taken to Amanda so quickly and my partner and I couldn't be happier! 🥳”

“We met Blake and Carly before we left on our trip and really enjoyed meeting them. Blake did most of the care and dropped in as scheduled. We loved the photo updates of our cats and the messages from Blake detailing what he did each visit. He was very responsive if we had additional questions and he even watered our plants for us while we were gone!”

“Yammy was very attentive and cared deeply for my cats while I was away. My senior cat has special needs and she went above and beyond to make sure it had the best care. I also had an emergency at my condo and she supported by granting access to the caretaker while I was away. She was very responsive and shared updates with pictures and videos daily. I came back home with a lovely printed picture of my cats and a Xmas card! What a warm and thoughtful touch! I would 100% rebook Yammy again! Highly recommended!”

“Justine took great care of my cat Gus over the long weekend. She sent me updates and photos after every visit. It made me happy to be away knowing Gus was being well cared for. I highly recommend Justine!”

“Kat was a lovely and trustworthy cat-sitter. Leo can be a bit of a scaredy-cat, but he warmed up to her fast. She went above and beyond, even going so far as to bring special treats and teach Leo a trick! <3 I felt totally at ease with her checking on my cat and monitoring the house while away for a whole month. Kept her appointments and sent me updates every visit.”

About: My current dog is an anxious senior rescue-dog with a growing list of medical conditions. Loving her has taught me so much, and I hope that I can earn the trust of you and your dog just as I earned hers! My most recent pet care experience revolves around aging & disabled dogs and cats, but I've also cared for plenty of healthy & energetic adults and seniors too. I've had dogs my entire life, and I've lived with family members' & roommates' cats for most of my life too. Specific dog experience includes: -Service dogs, rescue dogs, dogs with anxiety, dogs with significant medical conditions, seniors, puppies, healthy adults. -Breeds: Formosan Mountain Dogs, Shepherd-husky mixes, Labs, Scotties, Westies, and mixed breeds. I work as an RMT, mostly on weekday afternoons and evenings. I'm available 9am-12pm on Thursday and Friday, and often all day on Wednesdays. I am sometimes available for weekends as well. My dog and I live in an apartment building. We take a few walks per day and make sure to do enriching activities and play time. When I pet sit at the owner's home (such as on of my friends or family members), I follow their instructions and keep their pet company as if they were my own.

About: I grew up with a variety of animals including cats, horses and dogs. I have two dogs of my own - Cinnamon & Alfie. We love to cuddle, go for walks and adventures throughout the city. I regularly go for hikes & long walks and would love to have your dog join me. I have worked with both human and dog reactive dogs including my own dog, Cinnamon so I'm well versed in how to ensure they're safe and comfortable on walks. I have worked with a few dogs through training courses using positive reinforcement and would be happy to work with you and your best friend to continue to build their training while you're away. I'm comfortable administering medication as needed and feeding both raw and kibble foods to ensure your pet continues with their routine while you're away. I love to send regular updates & pictures to assure that you know everything that your pet is getting up to! I understand how important your pet is to you and want to make sure that both you and your dog get the best out of your time away. I'm currently taking a step back from my career in marketing and have an open schedule to take care of your pets outside of ensuring my dogs are still able to be taken care of which is why I offer drop in visits or walks but no longer offer house sitting services. I like to have a comprehensive understanding of your dogs regular routine, any allergies and what you're currently working on together so that I can continue with that training and care while you're away.
About: What sets me apart is the genuine care, patience, and attention I give every pet. Having grown up with dogs my entire life, I understand that pets are family, and I treat them with the same love and respect I'd want for my own. I also have experience caring for pets with special needs. Two of my family dogs were diabetic, so I'm familiar with maintaining consistent routines, monitoring their well-being, and understanding the importance of following care instructions carefully. I've also cared for a cat with digestive issues, ensuring they received the proper food and routine to keep them comfortable and healthy. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I work part-time from home, which gives me the flexibility to provide consistent care, regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, and plenty of companionship throughout the day. My schedule allows me to adapt to your pet's routine, whether that means early morning walks, midday check-ins, evening cuddles, or overnight care. I'm an early riser as well. I provide fresh food and water, regular walks and playtime, lots of affection, and I'm happy to administer medications or follow specific feeding routines if needed. Having cared for diabetic dogs and a cat with digestive issues, I understand the importance of consistency and paying close attention to a pet's health and behavior.
“Kai is very responsible, kind, and they pay attention to detail. Hana loves their presence and trusts their energy almost immediately, even if she’s always a little shy. This time when I travelled, Hana didn’t adapt to the separation very well and had FLUTD, Kai followed the instructions to words and took Hana to the ER. They waited the entire time there and helped me go through the vet consultation with video calls. Afterwards they also helped with feeding medication for Hana. It was going to be extremely difficult situation, but with Kai’s patience, everything was handled with care, and that eased my concerns so much while I was away. I would absolutely recommend Kai as a sitter.”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats ever since I was 15 years old. I’d say the caring of animals is my true passion. I am reliable and trustworthy. I have a hybrid work schedule so I can be flexible with my schedule to whichever time and day that works for you. I also do on-boarding as well! I live in a one bedroom apartment with a patio and I will always keep an eye out for your pets. Their safety is my number one priority.
“Ema and Cindy took excellent care of our cat Thomas and our apartment while we were away on holiday. They provided lots of updates and photos, and our kitty seemed very happy and calm when we got home. They also kept our home very clean. We would definitely book with them again in the future. Thank you!”

“Diana took very good care of my cat while I took a vacation. She communicated with me everyday so I knew “my boy” was doing well. Definitely would book her again. I just need to plan another trip!”

“Second time booking with Esther and communication was great just like the first time! Ashy is a shy kitty, not very fond of strangers, but she even allowed Esther giving her a few pets, which is a great sign of approval from Ashy. Will book her again if in need of catsitter.”
“Gisselle came for drop ins during a vacation. She took good care of my cat, making sure that he's fed, has enough water, has a clean litterbox, gets playtime etc. Gisselle also made sure to communicate with me regularly thoughout her visits, which I appreciated.”

About: I've helped train multiple different breeds of dogs from puppies to the older ones. I have always loved being with and spending time with all different animals. I love having the animals socialize on play dates as much as the owners allow even in small doses. I believe it's good for them but I also respect any anxiety they can have. However you would like your pet to interact is how ill treat them given the chance. I have many family and friends who are in the vet field who are very open with communication with any questions I have, who I have also pet sat for, so I have resources at my disposal should they be needed. I currently work full time but different days throughout the week, generally either mornings until 4pm or evenings from mid afternoon till just before midnight. I work relatively close to the skytrain station so transit isn't an issue for me. I don't mind taking night walks if that's something their accustomed to or generally don't mind. I'm used to crate sleeping or if you allow them on furniture I don't mind cuddling the fur baby as needed. I'm firm with discipline if that's how you've trained your animal, however I can also be lenient. I'm strict on only feeding them how you've left instructions for as I'm used to begging.
About: I’ve had my cat - Olive the past two years. He genuinely brings so much joy into my life. He comes camping, is leash trained, knows tricks and loves to chat! I started cat sitting for friends and began to fall in love with getting to know different cat’s personalities. I always want to make sure they are comfortable and properly cared for. I understand how nerve wrecking it can be to leave your cat. That’s why I’ll always treat them as my own! I’ve completed tasks including: - scheduled feedings/water changes - administering medications - litter box cleaning - play time and enrichment - cuddles and scratches - provide detailed updates with photos and videos - set up of pet cameras (if needed) I work Monday - Friday from either my home, office, or in the field. My work is relatively flexible as I can make my own schedule most days. I generally can visit in the early mornings or after work. I have a vehicle so it’s easy for me to get around the Lower Mainland. Pet care fits into my daily routine with my own cat. He receives three feedings per day with periodic dry kibble. He has tv time, play time (30 min - 1 hr), tricks and treats, cat shelves/trees/scratchers, and daily quality time. He goes on weekly leashed walks and occasional camping trips. This is with the help of my partner. I ensure your cat feels comfortable before entering. I understand body language and when a cat wants to be approached or pet. I make sure to follow guidance provided for feedings and medications. I have a deep understanding of what cats are allergic to and will conduct a hazard assessment during visits. I always provide photos, videos, and detailed messages.
“Emily did an amazing job caring for my two cats! She had a separate room just for my cats so they don’t stress out as much. She checked in on them regularly and monitored them through a pet camera. She did everything I asked for, involving cleaning their eyes/teeth. It was really easy to communicate with her, and I could tell she really cares for them. Will definitely book again in the future!!”

Jody was amazing with my cats! Even my normally shy cat took a liking to her. She kept me updated after each visit and sent the cutest pictures and videos. It was easy to see how much she cared for my cats and that she treated them as if they were her own. I came home to a clean house and very happy kitties. I would highly recommend Jody to anyone looking for a pet sitter!

Jen did an A1 job with Trooper. She was there everyday and looked in him. She emptied the Litter box, gave him new food and fresh water. It took a few days for Trooper to come out to see her but once he decided to come out they made great friends together. She sent some nice videos and photos of my little fellow. I have. never left him alone before and I don't go away too often so having her there to look after Trooper and look in on my home every day that I was gone was a godsend. I saw that she had many return bookings and I can see why. I will definitely try to book her again if I have to go away. Trooper likes her too and says hello. Thank you so much for helping us. All the best. Do hire her, you won't be disappointed!

Hayoung provided amazing drop-in service for my pet! She followed all the instructions thoroughly and sent me regular photo and video updates. Seeing how well my pet was cared for gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. I will definitely be booking her service again in the future!

Cassandra was an excellent sitter for my Nellie. You can tell from the moment she meets your cat that she is a true professional. She clearly knows how to care for cats and was incredibly kind and thoughtful. She even came back to drop off the keys after I returned, so she could keep them in case my flight was delayed. I would definitely book her again the next time I'm away.

Sheila took wonderful care of my cat while I was away. She was reliable, caring, and kept me updated throughout the booking. She was also incredibly flexible when my trip was unexpectedly extended, which gave me so much peace of mind. I’d happily book her again—highly recommend!

We were really grateful Jouvanni took our request at such short notice, and he did an excellent job taking care of our two cats for a week. I had left an essay's worth of instructions and where is what and he took it with grace and seemed to have no (or very little) issue finding things. Our boys were a little shy during the meet and greet but seemed to warm up to him quickly and enact their usual shenanigans during the week! Our building also has some rules around bikes, parking and guest etiquette and there were no issues on that end either! We will definitely keep Jouvanni in mind the next time we are away.

This was our first time leaving our cat alone for a vacation with a pet sitter so we were initially anxious, but we had a great experience with Erin! She was communicative, clear, and followed all our instructions very well. She did a wonderful job taking care of our cat, who seems to really like her. She was also very clean and respectful of our home, leaving everything tidy and did not leave any mess behind. Knowing that our cat was well cared for made being away much easier. We also really appreciated the daily photos and updates. :) Thank you so much!

We were so glad we chose Stella to care for our cat while we were on vacation. She truly went above and beyond, sending us regular pictures and videos and giving us peace of mind that he was well cared for. It was clear from the updates that our cat was happy and comfortable in her care. Stella is very trustworthy and responsive, and we wouldn’t hesitate to use her services again. Highly recommended!

Another great Rover experience with Justine, she did a great job taking care of my kitties while I was away. I felt confident that they were safe and happy during her visits. I appreciate her reliability and good communication. I definitely recommend booking her to take care of your pets.
