Colleen and Rob were amazing house and pet sitters…excellent communicators…took excellent care of our home and went above and beyond with my dog Bailey who is nervous and shy. It has been years since we had a vacation and we were able to thoroughly enjoy ourselves. I so hope we can have them again and highly recommend them to others!

Rebecca is awesome! All our neighbours commented on how often they saw Rebecca out for walks with the dogs during the day and how friendly and engaging she was. The house was very clean on our return. We highly recommend Rebecca.

We would definitely book Shelley again to care for our fur baby. She took such great care of her and our house was spotless when we came back. She gave us updates and we could tell our cat was comfortable and content with her. She even gave us an amazing scratching post and self cleaning litter box that are practically new.

Lexi is very caring, responsible and reliable. Her priority is the care of the pets, making sure they are comfortable in their own homes, with their own routines. She will not only take care of your babies but your home. She is very trustworthy and I would recommend her in a heart beat.

I would 100% recommend Jill. Not only does she know dogs and cats, she knows wildlife farm life and two dogs, and they both loved having to take care of them. I’ve never had anybody care for my pets unless I’ve known them, and she was terrific. Thank you Jill for taking excellent care of our pets and Home. Kathy 💛

About: We have had pets our entire life. Now retired and travel a few months a year, so currently without a pet because of our travels. Missing the love of our own pets (Scruffy lived to 17 and Cedes lived to 16). So we have decided that the love of your pets, would be lovely and would benefit all involved. We live 2 blocks from the beach, which gives the dogs a great run and or swim permitting of course :) My wife and I are both retired and walk to the beach everyday, would be nice to have a dog to walk with us. For the evenings it would be nice to cuddle up to a dog or cat. We live on the bottom floor of a pet friendly building, with access to a yard. We do have a wrap around deck with a 2 foot brick wall/planter that is gated to large partially fenced yard. Pics attached. We both have knowledge of caring for both dogs and cats.

Jordan stayed at our home for a few nights and took great care of our two dogs—and our home! It was clear she genuinely cared about our pups, keeping them happy and comfortable, and their updates and photos gave us peace of mind. Not only did she keep everything running smoothly, but also left our home clean and cozy, which was wonderful to return home to. Jordan is kind, reliable, and attentive to every detail. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter!

Joanna and Mark stayed for one week in our home and cared for our high energy/anxious dog and laid back cat. They exceeded all expectations! Both are incredibly kind, caring and responsible people. Their #1 priority was the wellbeing of our pets, and they strived to make sure they were happy and healthy. Our dog and cat quickly fell in love with Joanna and Mark. They provided morning and evening updates along with photos to help put our minds at ease while we were on vacation. Our home was treated with respect, and we returned to a sparkling clean house! We highly recommend them, and look forward to having them stay again in the future.

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.

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 🥰
