Dog Boarding in Sooke

About: I’m 55. I’m a lifelong pet owner. Right now I’m blessed with having a sweet, quiet Chihuahua and a dog-friendly Sphynx cat. (Dogs for boarding must be good with cats.) Having relied on pet sitters myself on numerous occasions, I understand the importance of finding a trustworthy, responsible, and experienced caregiver. What sets me apart as a sitter is my genuine passion for animals and my commitment to their well-being. With my age comes a wealth of knowledge and understanding, which I apply to every pet care situation. Whether it's catering to the needs of a senior dog, providing training for a lively puppy, or simply offering comfort and companionship, I approach each interaction with patience, compassion, and expertise. I take pride in maintaining the daily routines of the pets I care for, ensuring stability and comfort in their environment. Whether it's a home visit, doggy day care, or overnight stay in my home, your pet will receive personalized attention and plenty of love. Your pet's happiness, safety, and well-being are my top priorities. When they're in my care, you can rest assured that they're in good hands, receiving the best possible care tailored to their individual needs. Taking care of pets isn't just something I do on the side – it's my full-time job. I'm dedicated to them all day, every day. From morning to night, I focus on making sure they're well-fed, exercised, and content. Playing, cuddling, and giving them attention is what I do best because it's my passion and my only priority. In my home or yours, safety, trust, and creating a comfortable environment are my top priorities. With your pet's well-being at the forefront, I maintain a clean, pet-friendly space conducive to their needs. Whether it's ensuring secure fencing in my yard for outdoor play or utilizing safe and reliable equipment during walks, I take every precaution to keep your furry friend protected. Additionally, I adhere strictly to any dietary or medical requirements, administering medications if needed, and providing a calm and nurturing atmosphere for pets to thrive. With constant supervision and genuine care, I strive to create a trusting environment where your pet feels at ease and loved.

About: Your pet will receive an unwavering dedication to personalized attention and comprehensive care. I am a passionate animal lover experienced in pet sitting and boarding. I go above and beyond to ensure the utmost comfort and well-being of your furry companions. "I work from home, therefore, my schedule allows for frequent breaks and flexibility, providing ample opportunities to attend to the pets' needs throughout the day. Mornings often begin with a refreshing walk or play session. During work hours, I incorporate short breaks to check on my pets, offering companionship and ensuring they have access to food, water, and a comfortable environment. In the evenings, I prioritize quality time with the pets, enjoying outdoor walks for fun." Ensuring safety, trust, and a comfortable environment are paramount in how I care for pets, whether in my own home or at my client's residence. I maintain a pet-friendly environment tailored to each pet's needs. I adhere to strict safety protocols, including supervision during playtime, secure storage of potentially harmful items, and regular cleaning to maintain a hygienic space. Additionally, I prioritize open communication with pet owners to address any concerns and provide peace of mind. I also share pics of their pets 3-4 times a day.

About: Been a animal foster for many years. Have dealt with all sorts of attitudes and temperaments and well as physical disabilities. i give full time care support and attention. I also have experience and support for training and seniors who need different kind of supports. I am home full time as I work from home on my own schedule so lots of socializing and outdoor activities as i love being outside. I have a fenced back yard and behind that another fenced .5 acre area for them to run and play. We walk our own animals 2 times a day for an hour each time. I am very aware of allergies and medical concerns that arise. This is a safe space with lots of rooms in the home and tons of space and support for whatever is needed. This is a home for them which means YES they will be allowed on furniture and anything they need I will try my best to provide. Animals deserve a home instead of a house too!

“Chinel & Cristian were absolutely the best! We booked a one day puppy sitting for our dog Remi at their home on Vancouver island. After having contacted various Rover dog sitters, Chinel & Cristian were the only ones that were able to accommodate Remi’s needs. He is reactive towards other dogs and can be very anxious with some people & dogs. Chinel & Cristian have a beautiful dachshund named Benny. Him and Remi became friends fairly quickly. They sent us lots of photos and updates on how Remi was doing in their home and with Benny. Me and my partner were a little bit nervous of leaving our dog with people none of us knew, but they made us feel like we could trust them with Remi. They knew how to handle Remi having raised a dachshund of their own. We would highly recommend them! They’re so caring and loving with dogs that the next time we are visiting the island, Chinel, Cristian and Benny are our to go puppy sitters. Thank you guys so much and we hope to use your services again in the future!”

“Very flexible hours and Amber is such a caring person to my bamboo, I would bring my bamboo to her again next time..”

“Thank to Kevin and Kayla for took care about my pets. They did a good job, they’re friendly and kind with me and my little ones. They listened to all my advices to take care of Tammy and MaGui. I’ll recommend them and I’ll booking again with them”

“Jennifer is a thoughtful, selfless person who loves animals and everything to do with them. She loves being outdoors and finding new parks to go see. She loves snuggling and having lazy days too. She’s be a perfect Rover person as she needs something to keep her busy and this is the perfect way.”

“Jena looked after our 11 month old puppy for over 3 weeks while we were away overseas. It was a perfect experience. I felt completely at ease that our puppy was being well cared for by Jena whilst we were far away. She gave us daily updates. Pictures and videos. Was flexible with the amount of communication we wanted from her. Never left our pup alone. I had total trust that Jena was giving the best care possible. We have no other family or friends on the island to pick up our puppy so I needed to be really sure that she would be with someone dependable. Jena made it possible for us to relax while away knowing that our puppy was being so well taken care of. I have only good things to say and have recommended her to friends since.”

“Margaret and her family provided excellent care for our dog Atlas. We were afforded an opportunity to meet Margaret and her family and view their home prior to booking. Margaret lives in the lovely Royal Bay Area close to many walking trails and paths. Margaret was very organized and was well prepared to welcome Atlas with treats, toys, attention and the affection of two adorable young ladies. The whole family provided Atlas with attention, care and exercise in our absence. Margaret sent many pictures to us during our vacation and it was evident Atlas was very well adjusted and was enjoying his time with this beautiful family. I didn’t worry about him as I was truly confident he was being well looked after. When I picked up Atlas all his belongings were organized and both Margaret and the girls were there to say goodbye. I am very pleased with the care offered, flexibility with drop off and pick up and I would not hesitate to book with Margaret again. I highly recommend Margaret and her family for your dog’s staycation while you are away. Fantastic family and dog lovers A+🐶🐾🤍.”

“I am so appreciative of Neil — he took such good care of TUKA! She has some special needs (separation stress/prey drive) and Neil was super attentive! She warmed up to him right away and they were best buds instantly. I am very happy to have someone I can trust to take care of her who also sends little updates along the way so I know she’s getting all of her needs met. I will absolutely be booking him again!”

“Megan took care of our dog Elmer. We needed someone super quick and took him on during the holiday season while other kennelling agencies were busy. Megan is very attentive and communicated with us through WhatsApp. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a great experience.”

“Montana was great with Arthur sent us lots of updates and pictures. He had a great time and was well looked after. Would definitely recommend her”
