“Matt was professional, communicative and took my pup for nice long walks! Would recommend!”
“Amazing! Jesi is without question the most attentive and engaged walker. She is an expert at understanding and reading Stevies emotions and ensuring Stevie is fulfilled during their time. Her write ups and photos/videos are a great follow up about their time together. Could not ask for a better walker! Thanks Jesi!”
“Brandi is great with my 6 year old frenchie. She is reliable and always sends a detailed update with a picture. I can count on her anytime I am in need! Have used her services many times.”
About: I have always enjoyed being around dogs and I consider it a privilege to care for them. I have experience with all ages and sizes - from puppies who need crate or house training to seniors who need medications administered. I worked in a dog care facility for several years and I have a pet first aid certificate. I have 2 large dogs of my own whom love to go on off leash hikes as well as on leash trail walks. I have a part time job working a store front and would like to be filling up the rest of my time doing something I really enjoy. In the case of boarding with me - my house itself is pet friendly and spacious. I have a fenced back yard as well as a wide open few acre front yard. My dogs often enjoy the freedom of the front yard loose or accompanied by a long-line - still free to run but great recall is not required. In the case of the dog staying in the clients home or doing a drop in visit - I would follow any and all provided instructions and requests. I choose to follow a routine the dog is used to. In case of dog walking - I opt for on leash walking first. If a good relationship is established between dog, owner, and I, and the dog has a good recall, I do take dogs for off leash hikes.
About: I have had pets since before I was out of the womb! My household has been fully of all kinds of animals. I have mainly been taking care of cats and dogs my whole life. Including walking, feeding, playing, training, and bathing. I would love to become apart of your special pets life and be able to care for them as one of my own! I currently work part time so will have tons of time to play with your fur babies. I am usually completely free on the weekends to watch overnight and I can offer lots of down time and cuddles for the animals. I have a fenced yard and two fur babies to keep yours company. There is option for separation of the animals during a stay if needed.
About: I’ve been an animal lover all my life, growing up with both cats and dogs. I try to pet every dog I see, and would love to take care of yours too! I have a 2 year old rescue dog Bella, who is mostly pug. I would like to bring her along if your dog or cat is okay with that, but she can stay home except for house sitting jobs. I work seasonally so until spring I am free nearly everyday. I’m happy to meet you and your furry loved ones in advance to see if we are a good fit. I do not have a fenced yard but I will come to your home or meet up at your convenience, with or without my dog.
About: I have always had a huge heart for animals. Growing up I was fortunate to be raised with many family pets over the years, such as dogs, cats, birds, and fish, as well as having a couple horses of my own in my teen years. I am no stranger to the responsibilities of caring for animals and making sure their needs are met. Currently I have taken a step back from full time employment to focus on myself and what brings me happiness in life. With one of these things being animals, and not currently having a 4 legged friend of my own, I would be thrilled at the opportunity of caring for your pet. Thank you for considering me, I hope to hear from you soon! I am currently working part time at my own business. I drive from Penticton to Osoyoos every Wednesday to take care of my clients, and am available any other day. I have a moderate 2 bedroom apartment close to Okanagan Lake. At home I have 2 caged birds, a dove and a parrotlet. I am in a great location for dog walking, with a grassy area across the street from my building, and a short 10 minute walk to the beach. For care in your home, I have reliable transportation and you can rest assured your home will be treated with respect and cleanliness.
About: I have had pets most of my adult life and now I live where I can’t have pets. My son took the family dog to Calgary and I’m missing the walking partner. I like to think all dogs like me and I’m great with keeping them and myself save on walks in nature and around people. Our family dog is not great with other pets so I learned ways to distract him to keep him calm and myself from having my arm ripped off ( that’s a joke). I work for myself so I have plenty of time to check in and feed pets which I do for friends when they are out of town. I am up and out of the house by 9 so I am able to grab a dog on my way for my own walk. I didn’t include weekends as I have my granddaughter but she loves pets too so weekends may be possible if needed. I work from home for myself. I’m an author and I create artisan soaps and other body products. So lots of free time to walk pets and check in! I don’t care for pets in my home as I’m a gated community that doesn’t allow pets so this is not an option for me. I can come by your home and feed and take pets out. Just ask that you let me know if dog is kept in a carrier and if I need to put him back in after the walk.

“We are absolutely thrilled with the care and compassion that Tyler from The Strolling Dingo brings to every visit. From the very beginning, it was clear that she has a truly special connection with animals. She is not only incredibly loving and gentle with our pets, but she also provides them with the kind of total care and attention that makes it feel like we never even left. Knowing Tyler is with our animals gives us so much peace of mind—she is deeply responsible, reliable, and genuinely invested in their well-being. We can completely relax when we’re away, because we know our pets are in the best possible hands. Tyler doesn’t just look after them; she connects with them. It’s such a gift to have someone we trust so completely. We can’t recommend The Strolling Dingo enough!”

11. Jeffrey L.
“"Jeff has always been an animal person. He was incredibly gentle and caring with the family cats growing up. The first time he met my chocolate lab, it was clear that he has the perfect energy for dogs. My dog, Reggie, was glued to him since day one, and when we walked together he spent the whole time staring up at Jeff awaiting his acknowledgement. Jeff has stayed with Reggie while I was out of town -- feeding him, playing with him, socializing with him like they're old pals. He's a natural. Dogs can sense dog lovers, and they show us who is who."”
