“Thankful to have found Deborah to look after my pup. She takes such great care of my pup and home, I’d highly recommend her for your pet sitting and pet walking needs.”

““Phoebe did an amazing job taking care of our dog, Bowie, and our foster dog, Mango! She was attentive, reliable, and showed so much love to both pups. We came home to happy, well-cared-for dogs and couldn’t be more grateful. Highly recommend!””

“Jenn was fantastic with my and my daughter’s dogs, even when my little anxious rescue was being awful! She was loving and kind with them and we had no worries at all while we were away for the weekend. We had lots of communication and photos and my dogs and my house were all in good shape when I returned. We would definitely book Jenn again!”

“We recommend Kirsten with the highest regard and confidence! She is great at building trust and a positive relationship with a shy and needy dog. I greatly appreciate Kirsten’s kind touch with all and communication with us. We feel fortunate to have had her watch our dog while we were away.”

“Ainsley stayed with our shy husky and our cat who takes a long time ro warm up to people. It only took a couple of days before they were sleeping on the bed with her. She provided update photos and videos often, making us feel at ease that our fur babies were being well cared for. Thanks Ainsley!”

About: Have owned many dogs and cats in my lifetime. Also horses, cattle, sheep and chickens. Cared for an ill newborn calf and kept him under my care until his health was restored after ten days. Also house sat while caring for three large dogs who needed daily medications administered for three months while owner was out of the country. I am available to feed, water, walk, change litter and give attention and play with pets whenever they require. I can be available on short notice. I no longer have a fenced yard but am willing to come to your home daily or multiple times daily to check on the welfare of your beloved pets.
“Ashlyn ensures my trip is relaxing and enjoyable knowing my beloved fur babies are in excellent hands. They are always tired when I return so I know she is playing with them and I’m confident they are given affection and care. I recommend Ashlyn wholeheartedly!”

About: I’ve had pets my whole life, both cats and dogs :) I have helped train animals from a young age, do both on & off leash walks and help teach new tricks I work shift work, which means I’m very flexible on time to care for pets throughout each week and day, I can be available in daytime or evenings, and overnight as well depending on the week. I care for pets in all ways, can do walks, baths, cuddles (of course) and will ensure the home is kept clean. Will play as much as the pet would like & ensure they get lots of exercise

We came back to a clean house and some happy kitties! We also appreciated that she took the time to meet with us before hand to get the lay of the land! Thanks again Erica!:)”

About: I have had both dogs and cats since I was a small child. I’ve volunteered at the SPCA for years and have a 4 year old dog and 23 year old cat who I absolutely adore. I am an animal lover with a 6th sense for communicating and interacting with all animals. I am always out on adventures and would love to take your doggy along or board them overnight. My dog is the friendliest and loves playing with other dogs and any animal really! I have a big fenced in yard and live downtown Penticton close to the beaches, hiking trails and the off leash dog beach! I currently work Monday-Thursday and am available evenings for dog walks during the week after 4:00 PM. I am available all day Friday’s/Saturdays/Sundays for puppy/cat sitting, dog walks/adventures and doggy/cat boarding! I have a big fenced in yard with a friendly dog who loves playing with other dogs. He’s amazing with cats and small animals. I live right on the KVR and easy excess to many adventures for your doggy!
“Janine went above and beyond for our high maintenance girl! From including her in her families Christmas plans to cleaning our house and making it spotless for our return home. I couldn’t recommend her enough, especially if you have a dog with high maintenance needs.”

“Ashley is AMAZING! Took care of my home, dog, bunnies and bird for four nights and she exceeded my expectations. Her compassion and love for animals and the respect she had for my home won't be forgotten. Felt so good to walk in the door seeing our animals happy and home well looked after. Would recommend Ashley to anyone!”

About: having grown up with cats and dogs, no home feels complete without a pet. i truly understand that animals become a part of the family and with a flexible “work-from-anywhere-with-wifi” career i can provide your pet with the love, care, and attention they deserve and need. both mobile and childfree, i can travel throughout the okanagan valley (or the Pacific Northwest for the right match). I am experienced from playful puppies to sugar-faced seniors and from kittens to cranky cats. no furry friend is too big or small! i work a flexible job, fully remotely so I can keep your pet company while working M-F. I am a Peachland loca: mobile, fit, young-ish, and childfree with most evenings and weekends open to dedicate to your pet(s) and their needs. as a long time dog owner i believe in positive reinforcement training and will encourage good behaviour by rewarding with pre-approved treats. I observe dog body language to only touch or cuddle as much, or as little, as your pet may want. I completely understand being away from you family can be unsettling so your pets comfort is my ultimate priority :)
About: Animals have always been a part of my life. I started caring for pets when I was 12, and what began as helping neighbors quickly grew into over 20 years of experience with cats, dogs, and even horses. From playful puppies to senior pets, I’ve seen it all and I know how to meet each animal where they’re at. I believe pets deserve more than just “care” — they deserve comfort, companionship, and someone who truly understands them. Whether that means long walks, gentle grooming, or just extra snuggles, I make sure every pet feels loved and safe while their people are away. You can relax knowing your pets will be treated like family, because to me, that’s exactly what they are. 🐾 Caring for others has always been at the heart of my life. I work casually as a care aid in healthcare, and caring for animals has been a constant alongside that for over 20 years. From cats and dogs to horses, I’ve loved being the person people can rely on when they need someone trustworthy and compassionate. Because my schedule is flexible, I’m able to give pets the time and attention they deserve. Whether it’s keeping up with a playful pup, providing comfort to a senior cat, or just making sure your pets feel safe and loved, I treat every animal as if they were my own. When I care for pets in someone else’s home, I understand I’m being trusted with two of your most important things — your animals and your space. I take that responsibility seriously by keeping routines consistent, paying attention to details, and making sure pets and homes stay safe, secure, and well cared for at all times.
“Raina watched our dog and home for 5 nights. I was nothing but impressed with her the entire time. Great communication throughout, my dog was well cared for and the house was well looked after. Sadie even went looking for Raina the morning after she had left. :) 10/10”


About: I would like to open our home to other dogs families in need of dog daycare, walking, boarding etc. I have a 7 year old labrador retriever, and his goofy energy is contagious. He is very friendly to other dogs. I am highly organized, and love all types of dogs. I offer home check ups, dog daycare, dog boarding, and dog walking services. Having raised our pup Maple full time, from 8 weeks old, and I have a lot of patience and care to offer. I hope to hear from you soon! I work casually as a nurse, so my schedule is flexible and I can essentially pick and choose my work days which opens up my availability to care for pups :) I am comfortable with all types of dogs, and I'm happy to hang out at home with them or take them for fun times at the park. I live alone and have no children besides my fur baby.

Emma-Lee took fantastic care of my 8 year old male cat! He is very demanding with special care needs which Emma-Lee took care of; Emma-Lee sent lots of pics and updates too. I was very surprised Emma-Lee was able to get my cat to snuggle as he does not snuggle anyone other than me! She is like the cat whisperer! Emma-Lee also took good care of my home and plants too!!! I will rebook with Emma-Lee to look after my Louie cat! Thanks Emma-Lee!
