Pet Sitting in Port Alberni

“Lyndsey and James were easy to communicate with and replied quickly to my short notice request. I felt comfortable knowing they would be checking in on my pup while I was away. Thank you Lyndsey & James!”

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.

“Keah was on time and spent some really great quality time with my cat bubbles. He seemed to really enjoy the company! Would recommend Keah to anyone”

About: I've been around dogs and cats my whole life. Most recently I trained a dog to mush. She is now living with my mother as a service dog for her social anxiety. My friends often lean on me to house and pet sit. I have a lot of experience with dogs who don't play well with other dogs or have some other kind of triggers. I am a tree planter and professional climber. My schedule is very flexible so I will be able to take care of your fur babies or just your house anytime 👍 Safety is a core value of mine in any aspect of my life. I will employ any safety measures required to take care of your pets.

“Rhaya did a fantastic job looking after my little girl Lucy while I was away for a week. She was punctual on her visits and followed my instructions to the letter with feeding times, fresh water changes and litter box cleaning. She played with Lucy and kept her company twice a day which I was so grateful for. Rhaya went out of her way to ensure Lucy was safe, healthy and entertained so as to not feel lonely. She was quick to send photos and updates to ease my mind and always briefed me daily on how she was doing ie.feeding, bathroom and her overall moods. I am very pleased with Rhaya, she was professional and very caring. I would recommend Rhaya to anyone looking for a sitter for their family member while away, they would be in good hands.”

“Crysta was great with my senior lab Pearl! Crysta had a meet and greet before the drop in and both myself and my dog were very comfortable with her! She was flexible and understanding of a last minute plan change. Would definitely get Crysta to drop in on Pearl again :)”

About: Dogs and animals have always been a huge part of my life. I have always had dogs and cats growing up. I also spent a large part of my childhood on my grandparent's farm where there was never a shortage of dogs, cats, and other farm animals. My most memorable pet growing up was a beautiful German Shepard, her name was Jade and she lived to be 14 years old. She and I spent a lot of time together, its safe to say she was my best friend. In my adult life, I have been missing the companionship and love that animals offer. I have not yet had the opportunity to get another pet since I have traveled extensively over the past 10 years. Upon moving to Victoria I have no plans of leaving any time soon and since I am a student Rover works well with my schedule. Im currently in school Monday to Friday 8:00am - 12:30pm to become a professional counsellor and my schooling is done via zoom. I am looking for house sitting/ dog walking jobs in the North Vancouver/ Lynn valley area. I am very professional, organized, clean, respectful, and mature! I have a huge heart for animals and I take their safety and comfort very seriously.

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Bailey is AMAZING! We are so grateful to have found Bailey to care for our dog, Maugrim. From the moment we connected, Bailey’s communication was clear, thoughtful, and responsive. He came to our home twice a day and gave us regular updates, photos, and sweet little details that reassured us Maugrim was not just being looked after—but truly cared for. When we returned, Maugrim was happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. It was obvious he felt comfortable and safe with Bailey, and that made all the difference for us while we were away. We’d book Bailey again in a heartbeat. Thank you for everything—you’re a gem! --- Shannon”

“This was our first time using a dog sitter...ever. I was very nervous about leaving our babies with a stranger. I was very glad to do a meet and greet before hand and knew right away that Jilly would be perfect. I felt confident that they were with some who would take really good care of them. We were able to chat, check in. She sent me some photos. I know for sure I will use her again.”

“Miranda has been so helpful! I have a small puppy she has been helping with while I'm at work and I feel so much better knowing he's in good hands. I'm also new to the app so she helped navigate some problems and I'm so greatful.”

About: I have 10 plus years experience owning a dog and dog sitting for family and friends dogs. My dog is very active so I ensure we get out for 2 shorter walks each morning and evening to do their business and a longer afternoon walk rain or shine. We have had many great experiences having dogs stay with us. Must get along with our dog and be good with kids (we have 3 young kids). Dogs must be potty trained and adaptable to staying in our home (unfortunately we cannot accommodate dogs with anxiety/ separation anxiety as we have kids and a dog of our own and do not have the capacity to attend and spend too much time comforting extra attention). Work casually. I work around my partners schedule. I sometimes work evenings and weekends. I try not to book work if we have dogs staying with us to focus on the dogs. Between both of us someone is always home with the dogs. Semi fenced yard. If your dog is larger and or tries to escape they may be able to jump over the gate. Our dog never tries to but we usually take dogs we are caring for on leashed walks for the outside business. Trail walks in afternoon (prefer off leash but can do leashed walks if required). Cannot walk a larger dog that pulls and tugs on leash as I cant keep control of those dogs. We often allow dogs on couch and have had some on our bed - no longer allowed as we've had accidents and no longer can accommodate your dogs on our beds. Please send their own dog bed.

About: I’ve been very fortunate to get to spend my life around animals, and each one has brought so much joy and purpose to my days. From energetic puppies to sweet seniors, I’ve cared for furry friends of all ages and personalities, always striving to understand and meet their unique needs. Whether it’s ensuring they get plenty of exercise, sticking to their feeding routine, or providing extra cuddles, I make their happiness my priority. I take pride in anticipating their needs—whether it’s noticing when they’re ready for a water break during a walk, spotting when they’re feeling anxious, or offering an extra blanket on a chilly night. My goal is to make sure your loved ones feels safe, loved, and completely at ease while you’re away, giving you peace of mind. I'm a retiree, living independently without pets of my own to care for, due to roommate allergies. I have a reliable vehicle and am available for house/pet-sitting both in the Courtenay/Comox area and Tsawwassen/Delta (where my daughter lives). Needless to say, my schedule is flexible and I'll do my best to accommodate you and your pet's schedule. At this time I am unable to care for pets in my home however, I am very flexible in caring for your furry loved ones in their home, where they're most comfortable :)

About: I grew up on a farm around lots of animals! Love to play! I spend quality time with the animals and want to meet your furry friend! Working a variety of shifts so have a random range of availability, shoot me a message and we will see what works! Open & flexible! I will help out with any tasks you need! I love to spend time with the animals, playing and taking care of their basic needs. I don’t mind doing the dishes and some cleaning tasks too!

About: Perfect space for pets to come hang out. 1/2 acre beautiful yard with lots of cedar trees and racetrack. I am currently available fulltime. I am an automotive technician and build custom kitchens. I love to camp, fix, collect and repair projects. Raised with a dalmation my younger life. I can whisper all dogs so they are calm and happy. I love cats. Just me in a 5 bed 3 bath home after selling in Vancouver and moving to the Island. Im youngest of 5 kids with parents that are amazing! Dogs are always super happy to be here! They can explore the huge backyard any time! Im in this to spend more time with animals! I'm available full time to care for pets. Any work I do outside the home I limit too no more than 4 hours! I will bring pets along everywhere I go generally! Pets get the luxury of free roam in my home! They have a big fenced backyard to roam and play. As long there recall to come back inside when asked they get full privilege of going in and out as much as they want! After years of caring for animals I've learned so many safety strategies and precautions!

“We were beyond impressed with the love and care Raven gave our pup, Gracie. Raven was kind, professional and easy to communicate with. Honestly can't wait to work with her again! Highly recommended”

About: We are a Young active family with plenty of yard space. Living in a rural setting which backs on to green space with abundant trails for dog walking. Quiet home with my husband, young playful black lab and kitty. We love animals and would love to help care for a well behaved pet. I am a nurse working with seniors in our community and Evan is a fishing guide during the summer season. We have both come from homes that love animals, especially dogs. We actively work with our lab to get him to be the most well behaved doggy on the block by regular exercise and training to do tricks. We love going out on nice long walks and playing out in the yard. Our pup would also love a companion to play with.
