House Sitting Richmond

“Ebony was really great with out dog Louie, we came home to a happy healthy dog! We got lots of updates and pictures, and her communication in general was awesome. I wouldn't hesitate to book with her again.”

About: ❥ We’re Tianna and Tyler, a loving couple from Richmond. We’re the kind of people who get ridiculously excited when a pet wants to play or decides it’s cuddle time 🐶 ❥ Animals have always been a huge part of our lives, and we’re happiest when we’re around them! Tianna grew up surrounded by dogs and has continued caring for friends’ pups as an adult, while Tyler was a proud cat daddy to his own kitty for over 17 years. ❥ Together we have hands-on experience with both dogs and cats, from everyday feeding + walks to keeping them entertained or just giving them company. We bring a very attentive and genuinely enthusiastic approach to pet care. We’re also happy to reinforce basic training, such as simple commands & habits already introduced by their owners. ❥ We absolutely adore the fun energy of playful youngsters just as much as the companionship of affectionate cuddle bugs, gentle seniors, and shy sweethearts! Getting to know each pet’s personality and discovering what makes them happy is one of our favourite parts of caring for them. We’re especially patient with those who need extra time to warm up, giving them the space to build trust naturally. ❥ We take the time to learn each pet’s routine and individual needs so they feel safe, comfortable, and at home with us. More than anything, we want every furry guest to feel like a cherished member of the family. Sharing those sweet everyday moments is what makes pet sitting so special to us! 🐾 ❥ We love welcoming furry companions into our everyday lives and making room in our days for their care! Tianna works from home when her schedule allows, and we share responsibilities so our little friends can enjoy plenty of attention and loving company. ❥ We know how reassuring a familiar routine can be when pets are spending time with someone new. Learning about their usual feeding times and favourite activities helps us plan their care around the rhythm they're used to! ❥ Our schedules are fairly flexible depending on our commitments, although pets may occasionally be on their own for around 1–3 hours when we're both out. We're always happy to chat about your pet's needs beforehand so we can make sure the arrangement feels right for everyone ❣️ ❥ Our pet-friendly Richmond apartment has no resident pets, and we primarily board cats and smaller dogs. Before confirming a stay, we like to make sure our space is a good fit for each furry guest. ❥ We’re happy to accommodate familiar beds or crates & discuss their usual sleeping arrangements beforehand. We only welcome up to two pets from the same household at a time, so your little ones won’t be sharing their stay with animals from another family. ❥ When caring for pets in their own homes, we treat your space with the same respect we’d want for ours. We carefully follow your household instructions and pay attention to doors + exits whenever we arrive or leave. If anything unexpected comes up, we’ll communicate promptly and keep you informed about your little one 💓

“Stacie went above and beyond with her cat sitting services. She always sent daily updates with both pictures and videos. For us, she came twice a day. It was an absolute treat to wake up to these messages everyday we were away. In fact, we felt so comfortable, we never even checked our pet cams. Food was done 100% like we do it (using a scale and all), litter and surrounding area was always pictured fresh, and the water was never overflowing/dry. Our cats were living their best lives with Stacie, and the only worry we ever had was that the cats would miss her more than they’d miss us! Safe to say that we will definitely be using her services again 😌”

“Christina took care of our dog and cat for 10 days while we were away. She was very responsive throughout the booking process and stay. She sent regular updates and made sure to provide playtime and enrichment for both animals, while keeping them safe. She also went above and beyond by helping to coordinate with our landlord and watering the house plants. I felt very comfortable with Christina and would highly recommend her services.”

About: i’ve worked with animals for seven years, i was at an animal rehab for three, working with at risk animals, a dog behavioural trainer for two and a horse trainer for another two! i love all shapes and sizes of furry friends and am looking forward to meeting all the new beautiful babies i get to spend time with! i’m currently free everyday all day to care for a furry friend, and need almost no notice! i can be there at the drop of a hat pets are to me my children, and i think many people share those thoughts. i’m willing to accommodate any requests to insure you feel safe and your pets feel comfortable!

“Thank you for being so wonderful as always with Oswald. He adores you and Daphne loves a little affection too. Appreciate the updates and keeping me in mind while I was doing a day trip for work. 10/10 recommend :)”

“Breanna was great. She asked lots of good questions to better understand our styles and our dog dog's styles. Overall very conscious and thoughtful. Our Boxer (Mustard) got along well with Breanna. Would use Breanna again.”

John K.

“Pamela was very friendly and professional. During our 4 day trip out of province, Pamela stayed in our home with our recently adopted 15 month old terrier. We asked Pamela to be with Theo continuously during our absence, due to some separation anxiety. Pamela went above and beyond to meet our request. She made him feel safe and happy the entire time. We received regular updates with photos and videos, and came home to a clean house and happy pooch. We were nervous to use a pet sitter and leave our pup for the first time, but Pamela made the experience easier. We will request Pamela the next time we need someone to watch Theo while we are away.”

About: Growing up with dogs has taught me just how special and unique every pet is. I currently care for my two Chihuahuas, including my 12-year-old senior dog, which has given me firsthand experience in managing senior pet care, tailored walk routines, and attentive companionship. I treat every dog in my care as if they were my own family. Whether it’s a refreshing neighborhood walk or cozy companionship, my priority is making sure your dog feels safe, loved, and thoroughly cared for while you’re away. I work full-time in retail with a flexible schedule, which allows me to easily plan my pet care services around my shifts. I am available for early morning walks or drop-ins before work, evening visits, and overnight house sitting. On my days off, I have open availability to give your pets all the attention and care they need Safety and comfort are my top priorities. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I strictly follow their established routines for feeding, medication if needed, and exercise to minimize any stress. I keep the environment clean, secure all doors and gates, and ensure pets are always supervised on walks. I also make sure to keep owners updated with daily photos and messages so they have total peace of mind.

“Iris is amazing, she is so patient, caring and responsible. She took care of our 3 month puppy as if he was her own. We will definitely invite her again. I highly recommend her as a pet sitter!”

About: We are Animal Lovers that will make your pet feel like part of our family. We have so many repeat furry friends who get super excited to be back. We also always look forward to meeting new friends... Your pet will never be left by themselves and will have lots of attention. We don't have pets of our own as we travel, when we pet sit they are our focus and how we get our pet fix. We care for pets by creating a safe, calm, and comfortable environment while following each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible. During house sitting, we ensure pets feel secure in their own home while maintaining cleanliness, supervision, feeding schedules, exercise, and companionship. For dog walks, we prioritize leash safety, awareness of surroundings, hydration when needed, and positive interactions during exercise. During drop in visits, provide feeding, fresh water, potty breaks, playtime, litter box or cleanup duties, and check on the pet’s overall well being. Treating every home with respect, follow all client instructions carefully, and make safety, trust, and the pet’s comfort my top priorities at all times.

“This is my first time booking with Rover and I was very anxious, as Rhubarb is my heart. Anna and Vladimir were a fantastic choice! Rhu took to them right away and it was so nice to see the photos and updates that Anna sent me while away. She was very communicative and responsive and put my mind at ease in knowing that they treated my little pup with the love and care as if she were their own. Since getting back home, Rhu has been a little sad as she misses them, so I take that as a sign that they really are the best and bonded closely with her. They stayed at my home and left it very clean, maybe even more so that I do normally which was also nice to return to after an absence. I would not hesitate in recommending Anna and Vladimir and will be booking with them again.”

Christine W.

“We were first time Rover users, and first time having someone come over to house and dog sit. Roshni was easy to communicate with and answered my many questions about the process. She was flexible and friendly, and our two dogs seemed happy and comfortable with her. We would work with her again without hesitation.”

Cherry C.

“Isobel was lovely and took really great care of our dog for the day. My dog can be anxious and reactive and Isobel knew how to manage her in a way that felt comfortable and safe. My dog seemed to love her and felt so calm around her. Isobel also made sure to keep us calm and sent cute pictures 😊 This dog sitting turn out to be much less convenient for Isobel than intended, and I know she went through a lot of trouble to keep the booking and not cancel on us. This really shows how reliable she is and we appreciate it! Thank you so much! Would definitely book again.”

“I don't typically post anything but Merly deserves recognition. She is kind and attentive and has a great sense of humour. She shows infinite patience and courage. Our dogs are complicated and she takes them and their adjustment process on with grace. The dogs respond really well to her. She is organized, reliable and left the house neat and tidy. 10 stars!”

About: Growing up on a farm with various animals, I feel it’s just easier for me to understand their needs. Caring for animals comes very naturally to me and I love them like my own babies. Obviously I have always worked in the pet care industry and have been running my own pet boarding facility, back home, for the past 14yrs. My husband and I work but we always prioritise our kid and pets, so ur little fur babies will always be top on our list!! At home we have a fenced patio for ur little one to run around and enjoy in safety..and our 10yr old daughter is always ready to play a game of fetch or give ur little one a good brushing ! As ur fur baby will be the only one boarding with us , they will be the center of attention and recipient of a whole lotta therapeutic cuddles on a daily basis :)

About: Hi! I’m an experienced dog sitter living in Mount Pleasant. I’ve also grown up with lots of different sizes and shapes of fur friends, from King Charles Spaniels to Greyhounds. My current home isn’t pet-friendly, so I love to housesit and meet as many cats and dogs as I can! Over the past few years, I’ve watched pets with lots of different anxieties and my parents dog is currently deaf, so I have a lot of experience giving medication and am familiar with special diets as well. I love energetic and lazy pets all the same, and I’m very comfy taking them for all the walks they need as well as keeping them company while they miss their owners. I know it’s hard to trust someone with your family! Please feel free to ask me any questions. I work mainly from home and am flexible with going into the office, and I love to go for walks! I also live alone and have minimal personal responsibilities so I’m usually available for short or long-term stays, and don’t mind short notice when necessary. I’m happy to stay in your pets safe space and keep their routines, including medication and walk schedules. You can trust me to care for your home as well while you’re away, as I like to keep things tidy and water plants. I’m also comfortable with light grooming and checking mail, whatever is needed while you’re away.

About: Regular SPCA trained volunteer. I've been a cat parent for the vast majority of my life, and have been trusted to care for friends' and families' cats and dogs since I was a child. I have experience with dogs of all sizes and breeds, cats, puppies, kittens and senior pets. I currently work full time at a local craft brewery, but am hoping to drop to part time to be able to spend more time caring for the animals! If I get enough momentum the plan is to drop to part time and pet sit as much as I'm able. I work directly with my client to discuss specific care expectations in their home, but I am able to take pets for regular walks, keep pets inside for safety, ensure healthy meals and clean water are available on schedule, and be able to understand animal body language and communication to ensure the animals' needs are met.

“Stephanie is great. She is responsive and sends regular updates and our dog adores her. She always takes excellent care of him and of our house.”
