About: I'm a massive animal lover, but especially dogs and cats. My family always had multiple cats while I was growing up and we often visited many friends with dogs and cats. I've taken care of the pets of many family and friends as an older teenager and as an adult. I'm currently the regular walker for a goofy male Aussie Shepard and separately an extremely energetic female Aussie Shepard puppy. While I work full time, Monday to Friday in the morning until 1:00pm, I am available in the afternoons and early evenings during the week and on weekends as well. I believe pets are precious and are members of your family who should be treated as such. I understand well the needs of cats and dogs, and the attention, exercise, and nourishment they require.

“Diane is awesome! She was so nice and caring for little Louie. She really came to the rescue after another rover person bailed multiple times. Diane went above and beyond and excited to be able to have her for Louie's puppy sitter.”


“I really liked Sarah when I met her, my cats are not super social but they warmed up to her very fast. I had her come twice daily and I got a picture each time which was nice. My place was clean when I got home, cats were happy. I would recommend Sarah in a heart beat!”


“Melissa and her daughter have been absolutely wonderful with our little one. He enjoys their visits so much and they always manage to tire him out. I wouldn’t hesitate for a second to recommend Melissa if anyone needed dog sitting/walking services.”


About: Hi, my name is Jessilyn and I live in Burnaby! As an owner of a reactive/anxious dog myself, my approach towards pets is focused on force free positive reinforcement and enrichment! I wholeheartedly believe that animals do not need punishment and tools such as e-collars to learn or behave - they need love, patience, and persistence! I am gentle, kind and have been able to make connections with many nervous and shy animals. I also have experience with aquatic pets, cats, and birds! I love all animals and am also an occasional foster parent for animals at the SPCA. I am available after 4pm on weekdays, flexible on weekends, and available anytime during seasonal breaks (I.e. Christmas, spring break, etc). We can have a discussion on visits once I have a better idea of your pet's needs! I have experience with high energy dogs, senior dogs, cats, fish, budgies, reactivity, separation anxiety, enrichment games, and administering medication. If there is anything else that you feel I should know during drop in visits and walks, please let me know. I am looking forward to meeting you and your animal!

About: I’ve had dogs since I was a kid and currently care for two — an Australian Shepherd and a Maltipoo.

I used to bring my dogs to work, and now that I work from home, I’m with them all day. I take them on trail walks every day and cook their meals myself, paying close attention to nutrition and balance. I care for pets with patience, love, and attention to their routine. At my home, pets get daily exercise, healthy meals, and lots of playtime. I keep things clean, calm, and safe.

About: I have taken care of a wide variety of animals my whole life. I've fostered before and have clicker trained cats and dogs, as well as doing all the groundwork for my horse. I have taken care of cats and and dogs who need medication, and am comfortable with both puppies and seniors. I am currently working part time, and so I am available any time during the day Friday through Tuesday, and after 4pm on Wednesday and Thursday. I will introduce myself to your pet first (or let them come to me for the shy ones) and spend time with them. For cats this means grooming, cuddles, and play. For dogs I can take them for a walk nearby and give them company. And everybody gets a treat! (if the pawrents say its ok)

About: I've taken care of dogs since I was 9 years, my first dog is a French poodle who is 15 years old, then I had a Maltes, she is 14 years old, I also have a 5 year old Chihuahua, a 4 year old cat and a 2 year old rabbit, I've provided excellent care to them. I used to work from home, so they spent the whole day next to me, I would play with them in the backyard, provide fresh water, food, treats, and played with their balls and stuffed animals. I would spend my time with them, playing with them, taking them for a walk if needed, provide fresh food and water, and pet them.

About: I have a background in veterinary medicine, so I am qualified to administer medication to your pet if necessary. I am a freelance writer, which allows me to manage my time effectively. I am available to take care of your pets on weekdays and weekends. The reviews on my profile were written by people whose pets I have cared for through TrustedHouseSitters. In every review, you will find detailed descriptions of their pets' behavior. I can provide these details because I take the time to get to know the pets! I don't just want to feed them; I want to play with them and spend time with them! Additionally, the reviews about me often mention words like 'spotless' and 'immaculate' when owners describe how I left their homes.

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.

About: I’ve been a full-time pet parent since 2020, caring for two spirited chihuahuas and a sweet, independent cat. From managing picky eaters and cuddle-demanding pups to understanding feline moods and routines, I’ve developed a deep love and intuition for both dogs and cats. Whether your pet needs calm companionship, structured care, or just someone to spoil them with belly rubs and treats, I treat every animal like family with patience, consistency, and lots of love. I’m currently studying remotely over the summer, which gives me plenty of flexibility for daytime pet care. I’m available Monday to Thursday and Saturdays, and I can also accommodate last-minute bookings! While I don’t offer overnight stays, I’ll be there during the day to give your pup lots of attention, playtime, and care. I don’t offer services in my own home, but I take safety seriously when caring for pets in yours. I make sure to follow any routines, instructions, or rules you set for your dog’s comfort and well-being. Whether it’s walks, feedings, or just keeping them company, I treat every pup like they’re my own. I’m gentle, patient, and always happy to send regular updates and photos so you feel totally at ease while you’re away.

“Brook was very diligent when taking care of our older cat with medical needs. I appreciated her communication, the amount of pictures she sent and the long visits with Frankie. I was nervous about letting a stranger into our home and taking care of our cat, but she set me at ease. I will not hesitate to book her again!”


About: I absolutely love animals, especially cats and dogs and I can provide your pet with as much help as it needs and more to stay happy, whilst being the happiest myself. I have had no dogs in my life but really adore them and have been asking for one for years. We've had cats pretty much my entire life and I wouldn't change it for the world, I love all my cats but I'm looking for a side job and what better than spending time with animals? I love them and getting to know their quirks is so fun and rewarding which is why I think I'd be a perfect fit for any sort of job that entails animals :) I currently work 3 days a week (2 days at home and on sunday I work at a restaurant), so I have lots of free time even on days I work and can provide 2 walks a day most days and bathroom breaks throughout the day whenever needed, I can also stay overnight too. I'll care for your pets as if they were my own, I'm a very clean and respectful person and I will leave your space cleaner than you left it and keep you updated on how things are going while you're gone.

About: Growing up with dogs of all breeds and sizes including a cocker spaniel and pomeranians. I have often cared for my neighbour's pets including a poodle, samoyed, basset hound and shar pei. Lots of playtime (fetch, nose work, tricks) and walks to keep them stimulated and happy. Tell me what makes your fur baby happy and I will try to do the same. :) I walk rain or shine and am happy to have 1 or 2 dogs engaging in walks with me. I also have experience giving medication. My dog has EPI and I regularly give her oral medication as well as monthly shots. Look forward to hearing from you and meeting your 4 legged cutie! I can start the dog walks, drop ins anywhere from 8:30am until 2:30pm for the last hour walk by 3:30pm on Mondays to Fridays. Weekends I am unavailable. For drop ins and dog walks I can ensure I follow any of your routines such as paw cleaning before coming in the home. I will refresh water bowls and can provide feedings for mealtimes or help with any medication. I'll make sure they are calm, feel safe on our visits. I am not currently taking dog daycare or overnight boarding.

From the moment she had my fur baby, it was clear she has a heart made of squeaky toys and sunshine - complete compassion. 🐶💛 She sent me daily updates with the cutest photos, and it honestly looked like my fur baby was on a mini vacation of their own—tail wags, belly rubs, and all!

Cassandra L.
“I can’t say enough wonderful things about Cassandra and the love and care she gives to every dog she meets. From the very first time she met my pups, it was clear that dogs are her passion. She’s not just a dog sitter or a dog walker; she’s like a second mom to every four-legged friend she looks after and meets. Whether it’s a long walk, a play session, or a cozy overnight stay, she goes above and beyond to make sure each dog feels safe, happy, and loved. My dogs light up the moment they sees her, and that peace of mind is priceless. If you're looking for someone who will treat your dog like family, who knows how to handle all kinds of personalities, and who genuinely lives to care for animals—look no further than Cassandra. She’s a gem and truly the best dog caregiver out there!”
