“Thanks again to Brandi for looking after our cats. We were kept well informed of each visit and we came home to relaxed to cats and a tidy cat run.”
“Colleen was great. She was giving my dog his medication twice daily while we were away. It was reassuring to have her looking after him. We received updates and pictures which were greatly appreciated. My dog liked her and was happy to see her. Would definitely want to have Colleen look after him again if we go away again.”
“Jesi gave extra special care to our two cats. She seemed to be genuinely interested and engaged during her visits. She took on the challenge of giving eye drops to one of the cats and demonstrated competence and gentleness. We will definitely have Jesi back to care for our cats.”
“Jessica was great! She took excellent care of my cat Selini, keeping me updated with photos and was very reliable and punctual. My cat Selini was happy and well cared for, and I felt completely at ease while I was away. Highly recommend her!”
“Kirsten is absolutely the best pet sitter! She watched our cat while we were away for a week and we couldn't be happier. She sent lots of pictures and kept us updated each visit. She even spent extra time with our kitty. Cannot recommend her enough!!”
“Top notch! Very personable! Would recommend!”
“Jennifer is so smart, personable, and caring! I feel completely at ease knowing she's looking after our babies”
“Laurie was absolutely amazing when she cared for my cats while I was away for 9 days. I was nervous about leaving them for that long but having Laurie care for them put my mind at ease and she really did a phenomenal job keeping me informed with how things were going. Prior to my going away she dropped in two different times to make sure she fully understood what my/my cats needs were. I could tell she really cared about my animals well being and kept them happy with consistently and the support they needed.”
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.
“Thank you for taking such care with our kitties. Especially being so patient with Luna. Appreciate you're flexibility with changing days.”
“Phoebe was great! Easy to communicate with and plan with. Very friendly and my little girl loved her! It's always hard on me to leave my cat, but knowing Phoebe was coming to check on her made it easier. I will definitely rebook and would refer her to anyone! Absolutely loved the little video clips and pictures.”
“Bill loves his visits!!!”
“We recently had Angela watch our kitty and couldn't be happier! She took great care of Roxy and made sure to ask lots of questions about her routines beforehand. During the visits, she sent us constant updates and lots of photos. Roxy was extremely well taken care of and we would not hesitate to reach out to Angela again. Thank you so much!”
“Sara is compassionate and very kind. My dog wasn't cooperating and Sara could calm her down and even gave her a treat successfully. Thank you so much Sara!”
“Madison is really wonderful. She took such great care of my cat, and I would have her back anytime.”
“Thank you Lisa & Geoff for taking great care of our kitties ❤”
About: I've had a cat back at homecountry for 10 years (she still lives her happy life with family back there). I did a lot of drop ins for my friends and some house sitting here in Canada. I work regular office hours Monday to Friday. This is the only time pets will stay alone. Sat-Sun are days off. When I am not at work I'm fully focused on spending good time with the pets I'm looking after. Ensure perts are walked on leash, check for signs of discomfort, daily walks for dogs/ playtime for cats, regular brushing, cleaning litter boxes, ensure pets are fed on schedule and have fresh water.
About: I've been a petsitter (and housesitter) for a few years and have taken care of many different cats and dogs, both from my friends and family as through another petsitter platform. I work full time, so I am available for walks or sits on evenings after 4.30 pm and all day (and overnight) over the weekend. I prefer taking care of pets in their own trusted environment. I love going outside to explore and play, and let dogs use their energy!
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.
About: I am a animal lover studying to be a veterinary assistant! I have volunteered at the spca as well as veterinary clinic experience! :) I am patient and will treat your dog with care! I have house sat as well on many occasions. I am available most afternoons and most evenings, after class! I do have a flexible schedule. I am active so I will have no issues tiring out your pup if need be and I am good with older animals that need special care or younger ones that need a little bit of training. would love to meet you and your animal! Looking forward to chatting more. if you have any questions I’m willing to answer! :) love to hear from you! :)

“Silke has a smile that lights up a room and a wonderful calm energy. Animals sense this so it makes it easy to go away and have peace of mind. My two cats are very skittish and cautious and just loved her.”
Tracey S.
“Tracey is an incredible dog walker who goes above and beyond to make sure my dog, Lila, is happy, safe, and well cared for. Every time she shows up, my dog can hardly contain their excitement! She’s super reliable, attentive, and always provides updates about their walks, including photos and details about how it went. It gives me such peace of mind knowing my pup is in great hands. What really stands out is how much she truly loves what she does. Whether it’s ensuring my dog gets plenty of exercise, sticking to specific routes, or being mindful around other dogs, she’s always thoughtful and professional. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your dog like their own, I can’t recommend Tracey enough!”
