1. Danielle R.
“Danielle was absolutely lovely and took our dogs on three walks for us during a week when we away on a holiday and our sitter was working. Would absolutely have her again, she was in constant contact and sent us great photos so we knew our beloved doggies were in great hands. 10/10 recommend her and will definitely be using her services again!”
2. Heather L.
“Heather is awesome! She arrived right on time, my dog was happy to leave with her (which isn't always the case with a stranger) and met me back at my place early, at my request, when I messaged her saying I had returned early. She was easy to communicate with and responded quickly to all my messages. I will definitely be utilizing her services again.”
3. Trinity S.
“Trinity was flexible and took great care of my dog, who had been healing from surgeries after a car accident. Able to properly care for the special needs my dog had at the time while still giving her a great time. She was conscientious of the special circumstance and good at keeping her safe, healthy and happy. Trinity cared for my dog on various occasions.”
4. Bailey C.
“Bailey was absolutely fantastic with my black lab and my moms 2 year old mix! I last minute had to dog sit for my mom and being 8months pregnant, needed a hand giving her young dog the exercise she needs. Axel my lab was able to tag along and they came back from their walks super happy, tired, and relaxed. Bailey was very professional and you could tell loved dogs! Thank you Bailey, we will be using you again in the near future!”
5. Jilly S.
“Jilly has been a pet caregiver for our Australian Shepherd many times and I recommend her in a heartbeat! She is kind, loving, conscientious and knowledgeable toward our dog, other animals and people, too! One of the pet sitting occasions that really impresses me is she noticed signs of our dog being sick and offered to take him to the vet, where he was diagnosed with pneumonia! We were worried for him, but Jilly administered medical care, lots of love and clearly communicated his progress while we were away. Jilly watches for other health signs, behaviour and engages in exercise, play, and lots of affection, regularly. She is highly recommended!”
6. James F.
“James is so great! Our dog is a little hesitant to be walked by strangers but warmed right up to James and now gladly goes with him. We appreciate that James is friendly and personable but also punctual and reliable, not to mention nice enough to do us a huge last minute walk favor. Thanks James!”
7. Jaime L.
“I have sometime wondered if Jaime was put on earth to care for animals. She has a love for animals that I've rarely seen in another human being. I am so happy to see her pursue this avenue of employment, you would be blessed to have your pet in her care.”
8. Miranda D.
“Miranda has taken care of my cats on multiple occasions. They are older cats and are high maintenance, she always goes the extra mile to make sure they are well cared for and pays special attention to their multiple needs. She loves all animals and I would recommend her to anyone looking for someone to care for their animals like they were her own 🥰”
9. Aimee E.
“Thanks Amiee! The girls loved their time with you. Appreciate the security I had knowing you were arriving every day of our vacation.”
10. Mallory W.
“Mallory is very attentive and interactive with my dogs! They love her. She is always outdoors rain or shine, and it's clear to me they are her top priority! Highly recommend.”
11. Rhaya S.
“Rhaya was great with my 2 doodles. She took them for a full hour walk around our area, on short notice, and they returned tired and happy. Very pleasant and punctual.”
12. Paula Mayela Z.
About: I’ve had dogs since I was a child. I treat animals with respect. I have little well train dog from Mexico. Learning to train her has given me more confidence to handle other dogs. I’ve foster dogs several times and loved it. Your dog will be loved well cared for ❤️ Walks are in the morning (7am-10:30) and after 3 pm. One hour long and with or without my dogs company. Depends of the preference of the other dog. I follow the instructions that the owners leave as each dog has its own routine and it’s important to keep them on that schedule. In order to make the dog feeling stable and safe.
13. Keah S.
“Keah does an amazing job with my lab. She treats him like it’s hers does many walks and activities with him. Her property is large enough for any sized dog as well. Half the time she watches him my dog doesn’t want to leave. I highly recommend her dog sitting services!”
14. Crysta S.
About: I’ve owned a husky shepherd in the past and have been caring for and being around dogs since I was a kid. I love walking and running with dogs on local trails especially if their recall is good, but can also do leashed walks and park plays. I’ve fostered puppies in the past and also babysat senior dogs for friends. I work from home in Port Alberni and I have a fenced in yard. I’m able to provide great and thorough care during the work day and evenings. I often work from a cozy space in my garage that has big patio doors opening to the yard so pups can enjoy outside time while supervised. I like to take run or walk breaks during the day as well. I have a fenced yard which is great for dogs who visit or come to stay. I do have two cats so I am more keen to board and dog sit pups that are good with cats. I do have the ability to separate a dog from the cats for shorter stays.
15. Magdalena A.
“Magdalena has been fantastic with my pup, both myself and Mari have been very happy with her help!”
16. Joanna M.
“Joanna has a deep love for Dogs. She really appreciates their company and embraces them with warm loving care. Dogs make her so happy :)”
17. Leesa P.
“I had Leesa house/pet sit last year for me. I was gone for three months, and she looked after my two dogs. The dogs enjoyed walks, and lots of love from her I’d recommend Leesa to anyone looking for a loving, caring pet sitter while they are away. 🐾❤️🐾”
18. Mack R.
“Mack was raised with dogs and has a passion for the Irish Wolfhound breed. He understands their gentle nature and he responds with a caring approach. I definitely would recommend Mack”
19. Reanna H.
“Reanna has taken care of my 2 pups many of times. She is responsible, reliable, and so wonderful to work with. Very happy to have her to help out with my babies! Would100% recommend her to anyone!”
20. Heather C.
“Heather is simply the most responsible, loving and conscientious doggie caregiver ever - and she takes great care of your house as well. We have had Heather dog-sit our two big huskies several times for several days at a time. She has become one of their beloved "tribe" - she loves them and boy, do they love her. We trust Heather and recommend her highly.”
