Dog Daycare in North Saanich

About: I have had cats or dogs my whole life. I’d love to make your travel easier by caring for your beloved fur babies while you are away from home. I work from home and can rearrange my schedule during the day to stop in and take your pets out for potty breaks or a quick walk or cuddles. I don’t currently have pets in my home, so if your pets overnight here, they will have my full attention. I live in Sidney very close to walking paths and parks for walks and playtime.

“Tippy loved his stay with Heather. He's an active puppy and she was so good and patient with him. We appreciated the updates and pictures showing Tippy looking completely contented in her beautiful home and we felt very comfortable leaving him in her care. Thanks Heather and we will definitely be using your services again.”

About: I’ve been a lifelong animal lover and owner. My current household includes a friendly Bernese Mountain Dog puppy and a sweet, fixed senior female Golden Retriever. Both are very social and always eager to meet new furry friends! I’m available at home throughout the day to provide dedicated care for your dog. Whether we’re exploring local beaches and trails or enjoying supervised playtime and potty breaks in the yard, your pet will have my full attention. My home is set on a quiet, fully fenced acre, offering plenty of secure space to roam. We’re perfectly situated for adventure, with local beaches just a ten-minute walk away and hiking trails right around the corner.

About: Your furry family member is my new friend! I have a lot of love, kindness and compassion for pets, and have always have them in my life. I would love to welcome yours into my life. I’m available with notice and can tailor my weekly and daily schedule to meet you and your fur families’ needs. I have my son one week on one week off. I am at home always exception of certain once a year holidays or running errands or participation in community events. Fenced yard, harbour and beach trails close by. Ground level suite with no stairs. Pets are welcome on the furniture and are members and guests in the home.

“Rachel was wonderful! It was our first time using Rover and we had a 100% satisfaction experience. We met with Rachel in advance of our booking, she was very responsive to our question and quick to respond every time we communicated. She introduced our 8 month old Toller to chickens, horses and cats with great success. A kind and calm sitter, we’d highly recommend her to others. Thanks for everything Rachel!”

“Criofan was great, we were travelling from Edmonton and decided to do a last minute Whale Watching Tour. Within 5 minutes Criofan responded and we had Luna booked in to play for the day. We really appreciated the late night pick up at 10pm, was flexible for us to enjoy our time in Victoria without feeling rushed. The drive was only 20 mins, but was definitely worth the drive, huge space for Luna to run with Albert. Really appreciated the messages after dropping Luna off, put my mind at ease that she was behaving. Highly recommend, we got back a happy tired pooch!”

“Monica was just wonderful. I loved all the pictures and videos she sent of Angel during her stayed. It’s obvious that Angel had a great time. Will definitely be returning. I highly recommend Monica!”

“Devyn did a great job with our very anxious husky for the day. Although she was a bit nervous at first, Devyn made her feel comfortable and she eventually made herself right at home, which we saw from the pictures Devyn sent through the day. We would not hesitate to use Devyn again when we’re back in the area!”

“Anisha is great! She is very professional and communicative. Even before daycare, she let us know there would be another pup in her care and made sure our pups would be compatible before booking :) We left our 6 month old puppy in her care, and he came home tired and happy-- he had lots of play time! She was attentive to the notes in his profile and we were provided a debrief of his day. She is so good at understanding and managing puppy behaviors! We would really like to book her services again if we can find time in her calendar.”

“My 2 year old black lab had a wonderful day with Robin and Luc hanging out in their home. Oscar was happy and relaxed to go into their house for his first visit and was happy and relaxed when I picked him up a few hours later. Updates were sent to me throughout the day, including photos. I feel very good about utilizing Robin and Luc's services and I highly recommend them. I give them a 5 star rating and 2 thumbs up :-)”

“Nick and Chialin were amazing with Frankie. Nick took special care insuring our girl had a relaxed, comfortable afternoon at their place. Took her for a nice walk and hung out with her while being kind and attentive. She came home relaxed and happy. Thanks for taking great care of our girl!”

“Amy is magnificent! I was a bit hesitant to put in a review as I want her available for my mutt! ;-) She is very calm and zen, loving, open and warm which was evidenced by our first meet and greet where she got on the floor and my girl just cuddled into her arms. She sent photos and updates without me asking and was flexible with last minute changes keeping Lily overnight. It is my Lily (the white French Bull Dog) that you will see on her sitter profile, and you can see for yourself how wonderful Amy is.”

About: I have experience caring for dogs of different sizes, ages, and energy levels, and I’m comfortable adapting care to each dog’s routine and needs. I focus on calm, consistent handling and clear expectations, which helps dogs settle quickly. I’m attentive on walks, respectful of training cues, and comfortable supporting puppies as well as senior dogs. I follow care instructions closely, keep environments safe and structured, and pay attention to behaviour or health changes. You can expect reliable communication, thoughtful updates, and care that prioritizes your dog’s wellbeing while you’re away. Although I work full time, I have flexibility to work from home when needed, which allows me to build pet care smoothly into my daily routine. When working in the office I commute to Nanaimo, which means I can provide home care to pets from Shawnigan Lake to Nanaimo. I focus on creating a safe, calm environment for pets, both in my home and in clients’ homes. I stick to routines, follow instructions carefully, and pay close attention to safety on walks and at home. I’m respectful of clients’ spaces and keep things clean and secure. You’ll receive regular updates so you can feel confident your pet is well cared for.

About: Hello dog lovers! My name is Kelsey and I am an animal lover and youth & family counsellor with the vancouver island YMCA in a variety of neurodiverse settings. I have always felt a closeness and sincere love for all animals :) I am a responsible individual and am so excited to love and care for your furry friend! I have raised my own pup for 15 years and now have a sweet, gentle border collie named Takaya who recently turned 4! Takaya loves all dogs - but can also very easily be separated from your pup as we have a relatively large property, as I know all dogs have differing levels of comfortability around other dogs. In addition to dogs, I also have experience caring for rabbits, guinea pigs, and cats. As my work is currently flexible & often remote - I will be available the vast majority of each day to spend time caring for your loved one. Travelling frequently over the past few years, I am truly able to empathise with other pet owners as they hope for peace of mind in regards to their pets well-being and comfort while they're away. It is my goal to offer you this sense of peace and to love your furry family member as I would my own. I can also provide pick up and drop off! I can't wait to hear from you! Kelsey I'm extremely fortunate to work flexibly and often remotely for the YMCA so that I may truly focus on caring for and comforting your pet while they are missing you. My husband and I have a large, fenced in yard, with tonnes of outdoor and indoor space. If your furry loved one is not comfortable around other dogs, it is very easy to separate my border collie while still providing each animal with close connection and care.

“Bianca was great with our little guy Bruno, she was very accommodating when we had some issues with our building and had to change the schedule. She is responsive and we will not hesitate to bring our dog to her care next time we require it.”

About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and currently care for 4 cats and a dog of my own, so I understand the daily needs, routines, and personalities of different pets. I genuinely love animals and treat every pet like family. I’m experienced with feeding, walking, playtime, and giving pets the attention and care they deserve, whether they’re energetic or more relaxed. I also offer boarding in a safe, comfortable, and pet-friendly home where your pets will get plenty of attention and care while you’re away. I work part time for myself from home, so I’m able to give pets lots of attention throughout the day. My flexible schedule allows me to stay on top of feeding times, walks, playtime, and check-ins, making sure pets feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away. I have 5 acres of space for dogs to explore and play, along with a fenced play area for safe outdoor time. I also have a friendly 2 year old lab to keep your dog company. I’m able to crate dogs if needed, depending on their routine, to make sure they feel safe and comfortable while in my care.

“Andrea has been so patient with our new puppy, she treats her as if she was a part of the family. I have no doubt Nyx is already looking forward to her next visit!”

“I felt very lucky to find a sitter that would take my pup and Tannis (and her patient family) spent quality time with my girl. Her location was perfect for me, I picked up a very happy puppy, and I could not feel more confident leaving my sweet girl in her care. Thank you Tannis!”

“We were really nervous about leaving Leo with someone but Vicki made the process so easy! She was so understanding and communicated with us throughout the day. Leo came home tired and happy! :)”
