“Leah and fam were fantastic! She kept our doggo Cai company for a day while we had family matters. I always know Cai had a good time when he's reluctant to leave the sitter's place. Leah was friendly, great with Cai, adapted to our schedule, and had excellent communication!”
About: I grew up with a dog and cat, and have been around them all my life. I am attentive to their needs while being affirmative as a leader- they see me as leader of the pack. I am available mornings before 9:30am, evenings after 4pm and I have weekends off. Beach walks, run at the park, whatever level of activity is required for your pet, stay at home home staying too)) I have a reliable safe car to drive your pet for beach walks etc. I will take care of their needs, make sure they have water after a long walk and provide any extra care that is required.
About: I grew up with a mini schnauzer but I currently don’t have dog of my own. This allows me to dedicate 100% of my effort to meeting the needs / wishes of your pup. I completed dog first aid in 2024. My rates are slightly negotiable to Tofino locals / regulars I’m flexible, I can come to you and meet you at your home or hotel. Alternatively I can meet you at a beach, trailhead, or a lake. I care for pets as if they are my own but can maintain and uphold any rules or boundaries you have set for them at home
About: I've had dogs in my life for the last twenty years and absolutely loved being a dog mom. Recently our family dog crossed the rainbow bridge and we are looking to connect with other dogs. We love animals and look forward to cuddling yours. I will treat your pet like one of our own - lots of snuggles, walks and treats! I work from home as a freelance contractor. I have plenty of time during the day and on weekends to spend with your pet. Walks rain or shine! We have an animal friendly home and yard. Dogs will be kept on leash while out on walks. Please pack any favourite toys or treats so we can make sure your pet is comfortable.
About: Spring and summer bookings are starting to fill up, and I’m excited to welcome both new and returning clients this season. If you’re hoping to book walks, drop-ins, daycare, overnight stays, or house sitting, I recommend reaching out at least a week in advance whenever possible. I’ll always do my best to accommodate last-minute requests when I can, but booking ahead gives you the best chance of availability. I offer premium, personalized dog care in Tofino, (and can travel to Ucluelet when possible) for people who want more than the basics. My approach blends adventure, structure, and calm companionship so your dog feels genuinely well cared for while you’re away. Services 🐾 Dog Walking: My walks are unhurried and thoughtful, with enough time for pickup, transportation, and a full outing so your dog can actually enjoy themselves rather than being rushed through a quick lap. ☀️ Doggy Day Care (in my home): A full day of personalized care with beach or trail adventures, enrichment, downtime, and plenty of attention. 🏡 House Sitting (overnight in your home): A calm, attentive presence for both your dog and your home, with walks, cuddles, routine care, and thoughtful updates. ✨ Drop-In Visits: Ideal for half-day care, companionship, potty breaks, enrichment, and one-on-one attention while you’re out. 🐾 Boarding (overnight in my home): A cozy home-away-from-home experience with movement, rest, and individualized care. Puppy care, extended care, transport, and online training consultations are also available. For current pricing, please refer to the Rover booking page, where rates and service details are shown directly. Note: Some dogs are a great fit for shared adventures with my dog Cleo, while others do best with one-on-one care and more personal space. I’m happy to offer either depending on your dog’s temperament, comfort level, and what will help them feel most successful. About me: I’m Mila - a dedicated dog caretaker, holistic nutrition student, and experienced animal person with over 10 years of hands-on care. I’ve worked with dogs of many different ages, temperaments, and needs, including seniors, shy or nervous dogs, and high-energy dogs who need a little extra patience and understanding. Clients often tell me their dogs warm up to me quickly, appreciate the thoughtful updates, and return home happy and settled. I care deeply about creating a safe, enjoyable experience for your dog and real peace of mind for you. Caring for dogs is a natural part of my daily rhythm. I build my days around walks, outdoor time, feeding, rest, enrichment, and calm companionship, so dogs in my care are included in a steady, thoughtful routine rather than squeezed into a busy schedule. Mornings often begin with a long walk or adventure, followed by downtime, meals, and quiet settling time. Midday and afternoons can include another walk, enrichment, play, or relaxed companionship depending on each dog’s needs and energy level. I aim for a healthy balance of activity, structure, and rest so dogs feel happy, safe, and well cared for throughout the day I offer a calm, attentive, safety-first approach in both my home and my clients’ homes. My home is small but cozy, clean, and set up to help dogs relax and settle after walks and adventures. While I don’t have a large yard, I make up for that with plenty of outdoor time, structured walks, enrichment, and supervision. Dogs are never left unattended outdoors. I tailor care to each dog’s personality, comfort level, and routine. Some dogs are a great fit for shared adventures with my dog Cleo, while others do best with one-on-one care and more space. I’m careful about introductions and always want dogs set up for calm, successful experiences. In a client’s home, I respect the dog’s normal routine as much as possible so they feel secure and comfortable while you’re away.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Tofino
We visited Tofino on a road trip from Calgary and wanted to do a couple of excursions our boy Theo was not allowed on. So we needed a trustworthy sitter to look after him as he can be a whole lot of puppy. Leah was amazing through and through. Super responsive, friendly, and proactive. We received updates and photos from her during the day and picked up a happy and tired pup at the end. We would absolutely book with Leah again.
We booked Cheyanne for the day while we went on a kayaking excursion. She was so incredibly accommodating, meeting us at the kayaking place both times to pick him up and drop him off at the end of their day. He was completely tuckered out - she had taken him to the beach, and on a hike to pick mushrooms. He was happy and tired. And considering how tired we all were after a day out on the water, it worked out perfectly!
We were so fortunate to have found Catherine as our dog sitter. Our puppy is usually very timid but warmed up to her very quickly. Catherine was attentive, warm, and kept us updated about our puppy throughout the evening. You can also tell she is very experienced at this. Highly recommended!
Thank you Caleigh for being so amazing with our dog, Charlie. He has separation anxiety and somehow he was sooo happy to be with Caleigh and her dog George. He would just run in and not look back. She was very accommodating even when I had to make some modifications which we were so appreciative of. She stays in great communication before and throughout our time with her. Most of all, she was so kind, trustworthy and caring towards our dog. We would not hesitate to use Caleigh and her services next time we are back in Tofino. 💕

Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Tofino home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favourite hang-out spots in your Tofino
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they do not have any disqualifying offences.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
