About: I have been caring for peoples pets for more than 20 years, I have been a dog trainer for almost as long and I am also a Dogsafe Canine First Aid Instructor. I had a dog walking and pet sitting business for many years, have cared for many types of animals, and have many references available. I also regularly do puppy training lessons around town as well as some puppy training walks/pee breaks for those who have a young or energetic dog and a full time job. I also care deeply about senior dogs and am happy to give walks at their pace and on their schedule. I enjoy being in service to animals, I want to help make their lives better. That enriches mine. I have a flexible schedule at my job on a farm in the summertime, and free time over the winter which I will open up according to my being in town. I am new on here and am not sure if it is all set up right, but all bookings are done by request. I live in Westview. I am confident in looking after your home, your plants, your animals. I have looked after homes and farms, dogs to horses. I am happy to let your puppy or senior dog out for a pee while you are at work, or take your dog for a brisk walk if they need it. I will give your animals the best care I can.

About: Hello beautiful community, I have several years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments. My experience includes daily walks, overnight sitting, basic grooming, feeding routines, crate training support, and reinforcing positive behavior. I’ve cared for energetic puppies who need structure and stimulation, as well as senior dogs who require patience, gentle handling, and close attention to health needs. I understand that every dog/cat has a unique personality and routine. I take the time to learn each pet’s preferences, triggers, energy level, and comfort zones to ensure they feel safe and secure while their owners are away. Please let me know if you have any questions! I would love to take care of your furry friend & I am happy to do a meet and greet 🤗 I recently moved to Powell River and I have a flexible schedule. I usually work around 5-6 hours a day and 5 days a week. I live in a home and I have a fenced yard with one friendly dog. His name is Douglas and he is very friendly, goofy and affectionate.

I can’t put it to words how super pleased I was to find such a gem like Andrea. My Fur Friend (Kelsey) totally loves her and she surely helped me out of a dilemma. Couldn’t get Kelsey into a dog Kennel for 2 nights due to his aggression towards other animals. Anyways found Andrea through this app and was a little Leary at first so we had a nice introduction we went on a typical walk with Kelsy. Andrea and Kelsey hit it if perfectly and by the end of our walk Kelsey was totally comfortable and affectionate to her. Returned from my trip and they were just finishing their last walk together. They way these two interacted to each other I knew right then that I made the best decision hiring Andrea. Andrea thank you so much for everything and you definitely will be sought after by myself to be my backup Dog walker. Thank you

Tara was great! Very reliable and communicative. My dog loved her right away and I felt super comfortable leaving him in her care for the day.

As I dog owner I am attuned to overseeing and monitoring pets, its second nature to keep an eye on things and my priority is safety above all else.
