“Helen has a bubbly friendly personality and the cats took to her immediately. I loved the twice daily check ins and the pictures. It helped and reassured us that they were doing okay without us. One of the things I most valued was Helen’s vet tech experience. One of our cats requires palliative car and Helen handled all the meds and procedures with ease and confidence. We were truly able to enjoy our vacation knowing the cats were in good hands.”

About: I’ve been surrounded by dogs and cats my entire life, giving me a genuine love and understanding of animals from an early age. My family bred Labrador Retrievers for more than 10 years, providing me with hands-on experience in caring for dogs at every stage of their lives. From raising and caring for puppies to feeding, walking, playing, and attending dog shows, I’ve developed a strong appreciation for the care, attention, and companionship dogs need to thrive. I understand that every dog has their own personality, energy level, and needs, and I’m committed to providing safe, caring, and enjoyable walks tailored to each dog. I’m available 7 days a week, from 8:00 AM to 6:00 PM, offering flexible dog walking and drop-in visits to fit your schedule. Whether your pup needs a refreshing walk, a little extra exercise, or some companionship while you’re away, I’m happy to provide the care and attention they deserve. Drop-in visits can include feeding, fresh water, playtime, and plenty of affection, so you can feel confident your dog is happy, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. Your dog’s safety, comfort, and well-being are always my top priorities. I have a fully fenced yard with plenty of space for your pup to safely play, explore, and get some extra exercise. I’m also happy to accommodate your dog’s individual needs, including crate time when requested and medication administration as needed. When we head out for field-trip walks or adventures, my vehicle is equipped with protective seat covers and secure doggy seatbelts to help keep your pup safe and comfortable while travelling. Whether your dog is enjoying some playtime in the yard, heading out for a walk, or simply relaxing in my care, I provide attentive, responsible, and loving supervision every step of the way.

About: I’ve cared for many pets since childhood, giving me decades of hands‑on experience with all kinds of personalities and needs. I offer calm, reliable care making pets feel safe, understood, and genuinely loved. And yes, dogs think I’m hilarious, while cats simply tolerate me — I respect the dynamic. I’m here for the zoomies and the drama! Calm, patient, and great with shy or anxious pets who need a soft, reassuring presence. I stick closely to feeding schedules, potty routines, medication instructions, and walk preferences so pets feel secure and comfortable. I always send warm, detailed updates with photos so you can feel connected and reassured. My goal is simple: to make your pet feel right at home, treated with the same patience, gentleness, and respect I give my own… plus a little extra, because I speak fluent “treat” and I’m an unlicensed but highly skilled cuddle dealer! Pet care fits easily into my daily routine because I’m not working at the moment, so your pet basically becomes my coworker — and honestly, they’re way better company. I’m able to give pets my full attention. I keep a flexible schedule for drop‑ins, daycare, and walks, and I’m available to follow each pet’s specific routine, from feeding and potty breaks to playtime and calm companionship. Pets get consistent care, plenty of interaction, and a reliable presence throughout the day. Drop-ins at your home: I keep things consistent by following their established schedule, giving pets calm companionship, enrichment, and plenty of attention. Walks are safe, paced, and full of sniff‑approved adventures. Daycare is a mix of play, rest, and gentle supervision. When pets stay with me, they get a clean, cozy environment, a fully fenced yard for safe outdoor time, and whatever routine makes them feel most at ease — from free roaming to crating if that’s their comfort zone.

About: Hey cute dogs and responsible dog owners! I am a german dog trainer and I miss working with dogs so much! Since I am here in Canada, I work part-time from home and unfortunately I am not allowed to have an own dog, where I live. For the past 8 years I worked with more than 45 dogs and I fostered more than 30 dogs in my own home in Germany (mostly rescues). I used to worked with three german animal protection associations as well. My specialties are: - leash pulling issues - creating a better bond and relationship between dog and owner - behavior in general - issues at home I can´t wait to meet you and your dog! I work part-time in my own business at home, so I am able to organize my own times, when I work. But ideal is after 11:30 am. I know, how to read dogs. I work with dogs all my life, even as a kid, I worked with dogs at german dog parks. I was the youngest trainer in my town, who ever worked with dogs. And mostly, I often like dogs better than humans - to be honest. Dogs are just amazing. I will always take care about the safety of the animal, that - for me - is job one. Also I won´t give anything to the pet (treats, toys), that I haven´t talked through with the owner beforehand.

About: Experienced cat, dog and snake sitter! I have experience with difference temperaments so shy, anxious, or high energy are no issue at all (: I’ve cared for animals with health issues including preparing and giving medications, and helping with post surgical care. I grew up with cats, dogs, lizards, and rodents and absolutely love animals! Being away at university I don’t get to spend much time with pets, but I always jump at the opportunity to pet sit for friends! I love photography as well and I’m happy to bring my camera to take some quality pics of your pets for you (: I’m currently a part time UVic student with lots of spare time to hang out with your pets! Happy to drop in or do a walk before and after my classes! I currently am not able to board animals at home, but I’m happy to do house sitting and drop in services for you and your pets (:

“Kaitlyn did a fantastic job of looking after my cat while I was away. We had a quick video chat to go over what is needed and she autonomously followed through with what was asked perfectly. I had a change of plans mid-trip which I communicated to Kaitlyn and she quickly responded and was able to accommodate the change last minute. Very pleased and would recommend!!”

I planned for only a daily visit for my 2 cats. Shelley staggered the visits - coming to the apartment at different hours. It worked well for my cats. I had boarded them previously and will avoid that option in future. They were much happier when I came home than when bringing them home from a cattery. And I will reach out to Shelley in the future.
