House Sitting in North Cowichan

“Kylee did a great job watching our dog Mya. Under the circumstances she did everything she could to keep our dog comfortable. She kept us updated, and sent us pictures. We appreciated all her help and care.”

“According to Bailey, our Maltese, Pat treated him with attention and affection like never before (except from us) while we were away on Christmas vacation: he frankly hated to see her leave. Pat responded to our enquiry promptly and met with us on two occasions to get all the details regarding staying in our home, including Bailey's culinary details and exercise and sleeping preferences. Upon our return we found everything as we had left it and a very happy Bailey eager to have us go on another vacation in order to have fun with Pat again. We highly recommend Pat as she saved the situation for us. Initially, we did some "interviews" with a local kennel but were rejected since all Bailey did during the "all day trial" was try to escape. On future trips, Pat will be the first person we'll contact for the job.”

“Kayla was so excellent with my 2 dogs. She made sure to send lots of pictures to me. My dogs looked like they were having a blast. I would definitely use Kayla again!!!”

“Bre was great! Kept open communication all day and even sent pictures! She was professional, prompt and took great care of Bodhi!”

“Danielle is a fantastic pet sitter. Her kindness and detail oriented nature makes her the perfect person to entrust with your fur babies. I look forward to finding reasons to need her services again and highly recommend her to anyone.”

“Tara had excellent communication and provided lots of info regarding my 10 month old pup. She was very patient and provided Riley with lots of excercise and games. She left my house very tidy. I would not hesitate to have her pets it at my house again :)”

“Trinity was great with our pet Millie. She was always quick to respond to any messages, and kept us informed of any issues with the house while we were away as well. Thanks trinity!”

“Leesa was amazing We were all so comfortable with her from the first second we met her. Leesa has a calming, and happy personality. We all felt like we had know her for years, we feel like she is now a friend as well as an awesome dog sitter. Oscar absolutely loved Leesa, we feel he was a little sad after she left, he missed her. We wish we had her all to ourselves. Thank you Leesa We hope to see you again soon, we want to book something just so we can see you again and we will ❤️”

“Teresa looked after Jack, my wheaten terrier, in my home while I was away for two weeks, She joined us for several walks prior to the trip to get to know Jack and his routines. He really enjoyed her company and I had no anxiety about leaving him in her capable care. She walked him at least twice daily and was responsible with her care. I got feedback from some of the regulars at the place that I generally walk him, saying that she was really good with him and kept him both safe and socialized. I would not hesitate to leave Jack with Teresa again, and feel confident in recommending her to others.”

“Danielle did an excellent job looking after my dog and and keep me well informed which is always appreciated.”

“William was so kind and responsible with my dogs. I highly recommend his pet services. My dogs really enjoyed their time with him, they came home so happy.”

“Anna Maria came to our home to look after our 2 dogs and 1 cat. She took good care of our pets looking after feeding, walking, playing, cuddling and cleaning up. We were concerned because our senior dog, age 17, becomes stressed when we are away and needs special care. We appreciated the daily pictures and updates Anna Marie sent and could see that our pets were happy and calm with her competent care. She is reliable and trustworthy and we will be happy to hire her again.”

“Nicholas S. has cared for several of our dogs in past. He is very calm, patient and intuitive when interacting with dogs and other animals too. Our dogs all responded to his kind heart and gentle manner, enjoyed hiking and hanging out with him, always excited when he stopped by the house. He would be an excellent, responsible care giver on Rover.com”

About: I’ve owned and cared for cats my whole life. I’ve also cared for friends dogs over the years. I’m happy to take mellow dogs of any age on walks or overnight stays. Im only out about 3 days a week and working from home the rest of the time so it’s easy for me to be flexible and available to spend time with your pet. I live in a bus so it’s a relatively small space. There is room on the couch or floor to set up a spot for pets.

“She was very easy to work with, took great care of my animals, is very nice, and super talkative. Definitely highly suggest her for any of your pet care needs!”

“Dawn was terrific juggling our three dogs. It was planned last minute and did a fantastic job making us feel comfortable leaving our mutt family with … basically strangers. Received updates and even offered FaceTime connections if we wanted to check in. Even our neighbours commented how caring they both were with our dogs and saw them out and about at the park or out for a walk. Plus added bonus, the house was as clean as I’ve ever seen it when we returned. I highly recommend Dawn and will use her again.”

“Fantastic communication and made sure our beloved dog was well cared for. We were able to enjoy ourselves knowing our dog was safe in her care. Thank you so much!”

“Our pets loved Patricia from the moment they met her. She took great care of them in our home and sent lots of updates on their activities. I would definitely recommend booking with her!”
