House Sitting Summerland

“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.”

About: I have taken care of all kinds of pets from dogs and cats, birds, exotic animals, farm animals, and I have confidently given medications orally. I usually will stop by before and after my shift ( I work 7 am to 7 pm. 4 days on 4 Days off ) if I am working that day I usually sleep at the cilents abode if that’s what the client prefers and then wake up hang out with the pet do their morning routine and then head to work. On the days I am not working. I am available more it depends on my clients preference and what they are looking for. Sometimes they want me to hang out with their pets all the time other times they’re like no I just want you to stop in and feed them. I’m pretty open to whatever. I prefer to take care of clients pets in their home environment. I don’t like having cilents pets in my home. Please and thanks 😊

“We were not able to utilize the full sit service as due to the massive fire in Summerland and the cancellation of the festival we were planning on attending was cancelled. Luciana communicated with us every step of our journey. Right from booking to when we had to cancel her last minute. She even took the time to check in with us to make sure we got home safely. We plan on attending every year so will definitely use her again when we come to Penticton next year. Thank you Luciana!”

“Absolutely amazing! Eva sent us videos and pictures over her stay. She was flexible with our communication as we were out of service for the weekend. We felt very comfortable with Eva in our home taking care of our doggies. Would highly recommend!!”

“Kaylee was great! My Great Dane was in love with her the second they met at the meet and greet. Although my dog was uneasy when she came to my place on her own, she worked through it and had a great time together. Unintentionally, my sister saw Kaylee out for a walk with my dog, my sister said Kaylee was in control and the walk looked like it was going well!”

“Milissa was a great house/dog sitter. We will definitely use her again. My older dog warmed up to her and was very relaxed around her. She sent pictures of our dog and let us know how she was doing. Cleaned the suite up before we even got home.”

“My little dachshund Stanley loved Alyson from the second she walked into the house (and he isn’t like that with very many people). I felt very good leaving him with Alyson as I knew he was gonna be in good hands. Alyson was very attentive and communicative. I would ask her back in a heartbeat and not only that she is very lovely person. Alyson took very good care of my dog and my house was spotless when I got home. Thanks again Alyson🥰”

“Absolutely wonderful! Kirsten was so lovely with our 13month old Labrador pup. She looked after him while we took our kids out on the lake for a few hours, and she welcomed him into her home, arranged a doggy play date for him and generally gave him so much love. He was very tired and happy when we picked him up. Thank you so much, Kirsten!!”

“Leah was an absolute lifesaver during a very difficult time for our family. She went above and beyond from the very beginning, making time to meet us, our dogs, chickens and ducks beforehand and accommodating a last-minute booking with less than 24 hours’ notice. Communication was outstanding throughout the entire experience. Her pre-booking contact was thorough and reassuring, and she kept us updated while we were away, giving us complete peace of mind. Most importantly, Leah genuinely prioritized our dogs’ needs. They are loving but reactive dogs and can be demanding to care for, yet she handled them with patience, understanding, and confidence. She took them on adventures, ensured they were well cared for, and treated them as if they were her own. We could not be happier with the experience. While Leah may be at the higher end of the price range, she is worth every penny for the level of care, professionalism, and peace of mind she provides. We are incredibly grateful for everything she did and would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for exceptional pet and house care. Especially more demanding or special need scenarios. Thank you Leah!!!”

About: I am an 21 year old college student who has a passion for animals and would absolutely love to look after your fur baby! I have had pets around since I was born, and have loved not only my own, but every animal I come into contact with with my whole heart. I'm a very laid back person, but also would enjoy play time once in a while with your furry friend. I'm a very genuine person, very sociable, but also quite responsible and would take amazing care of your dog or cat while you're away. I am just looking for a little bit of money on the side so I like to think the rates I have offered are minimal. If you're interested in me looking after your pets, let me know! I am currently in school full time from Monday-Friday, and working part time on weekends. However I am completely available every weekday from 3pm onward! If you have a yard for your pet to play in, I’d enjoy staying outside with and playing, and if not, a walk around town is not a problem at all! I know lots of trails around the area, or your pup and I could take a visit down to the beach for a swim!

About: I have 10 years worth of experience! I’ve been around dogs my entire life, working with dogs of all ages and breeds! Ive been walking dogs since the age of 10 through my family friends dog boarding business! I’m available for dog walking Monday to Friday. From 9am to 6pm. I’m currently not working so I’m looking for as many jobs as I can get! I will ensure your pups are safe and sound with me! Providing fresh water on walks, treats and getting your pups the exercise they need!

“Ainsley was lovely, took great care of our active golden and brand new puppy. The duo is quite the handful. She communicated well with us, and sent along pictures during their time together.”

“As far as we are concerned Magdala is a dog whisperer. We have an extremely timid Shih-tzu we got during Covid. She has never been left alone. We tried some doggy daycares but she was very stressed out. Magdala came over for a meet and greet and Pepper spent the whole time by her side. That has never happened! Today Magdala came to our place to look after Pepper all day and after the initial excitement of us coming home she is totally relaxed. 5 stars all the way!!!”

“Tara is a great sitter Ziggy was well taken care of she has a great knowledge of dogs of all types, we would use Tera again without hesitation.”

Debbie S.

“Lora was a wonderful sitter for my dog, Mo. She was very friendly at the meet and greet and asked all the right questions, and I could tell right away she would be great with Mo. While I was away, she sent photos and updates and I came home to a content pup. I would definitely recommend Lora!”

I live right on the KVR and easy excess to many adventures for your doggy!

“We used rover for the first time and were Very happy with Brad and Jody. They took great care of our dog with pictures throughout the evening. Highly recommend them.”

Shirley M.

“I was so reluctant to use Rover but then I found Shelly! Now I’m reluctant to leave this review because I don’t want her to get too busy and not be available but she deserves a glowing reference from me. Shelly, is absolutely the best and I feel so blessed to have found her…she is experienced with all their meds, loving and reliable. I highly recommend her as a caregiver. A+++ (and I don’t leave this review lightly….I am very particular when it comes to my babies )”

About: I used to have 2 marine aquariums. They were so much fun to maintain, actually fairly easy. In my current incarnation I am travelling a lot. The aquariums couldn't come along for the ride. I've been doing housesitting/pet care since summer 2023. And what a great experience it has been. I've managed to care for huskies, a pyrenees, a lab, 19yo chihuahua, 15yo shitzu, a few cats, a bunny... chickens, among a few other dogs. I'm a very active person and will help your pet get the right amount of exercise. And at the same time I'm very conscientious and will follow your care requests. In home stay scenarios I tend to keep a clean house. And I'm very schedule oriented; things get done by the established and well communicated routine that you provide. At present I am working as a massage therapist. I work a 6.5 hour shift 3 days per week. Otherwise I'm usually around cuddling fur babies. I'm very time oriented, everything in my life is set on a recurring schedule. I tend to get up at 6AM and be in bed at 10PM I care for pets in the client's home. I follow the instructions provide. I ask questions when people are vague or provide ambiguous information. I send daily pet photos to keep owner abreast of their pets well-being.

About: We had a beautiful Golden Retriever 2013-2025 who went everywhere with me and was never left alone. I loved being with him, caring for him and other friends pets, walking, brushing, veterinary drop offs and collections as well as caring for elderly dogs too. I love all dogs. Will be with the dogs all day in my home and we have beautiful trails right at our doorstep for quick walks or longer hikes. Happy to be slower if dogs are older or small or longer if they have lots of energy. I work from home so pets would never be left alone, I have set up my work to fit in with caring for our own pet as a priority. Have looked after our own dog and walked 4-5 times daily with shorter potty breaks and longer excercise trips for 12 years. I have no fenced yard but have a provincial park and walking trails directly at my door so walking is never a problem. My own golden retriever will go outside for a variety of mini walks and a longer walk daily or we can take the car to other parks if requested.
