“Klara did a wonderful job dropping in to look after my 13yo cat. She sent thorough descriptions of her her visits, along with pictures, and tried her best to get my skeptical cat to come out for attention. I'd happily ask Klara to look after Kerm again!”

“Melissa is very professional and sweet. My dogs love her they were cared with love and I was updated with everything that she did with with them. Next time I will need a sitter I will not think twice to book her again! :)”

“Linn was super accommodating, friendly, and caring towards both my cat Oreo and myself! I could tell my cat Oreo felt safe with her. I would definitely book with her again!”

“Matt was a great sitter for our two cats! He made sure our cats were comfortable and kept them engaged during his visits. His notes were detailed and he kept regular communication with us. Would recommend!”

“This is the second time Alexandra visited my kittens while I was away and I’m so happy to know I can rest easy and not worry about them when I’m away. My kittens were so relaxed when I came home and my place looked the exactly same way I left it. Highly recommend!!”

About: We are a family of 4 with a passion for dogs! We have an 14 yr old Schnoodle who is happy to have dog friends around, very calm at home in his senior years. We recently adopted a 16 yr old Cockapoo named, Buddy. He is very low energy and also happy to have new dog friends around. I'm a confident, calm & compassionate pet lover. I'm available weekdays, and evenings and weekends. Your dog will love hanging with our family, my kids are great with dogs! We have a lovely fenced backyard for your pup to roam in and are also close to many parks for ball chasing fun. We love to bike, walk & hike. Our favourite spots are Spanish Banks, Pacific Spirit, North Van and all dog friendly beaches! Expect your pup tired, sandy and happy at pick up. We're happy to provide extended stays, bathing & grooming too! My husband and I both have flexible work schedules, one of us is usually always home. Hope to hear from you soon! My husband and I both have flexible work schedules so one of us is always home in the day. If we do need to pop out we’d happily take your dog with us or leave them to roam the house or in their crate, depending on your choice. Our yard is fully fenced. The dogs are welcome to play in the yard or lay on our deck in the sun. Inside our home is very dog welcoming, we have a ‘dog couch’ and if your dog doesn’t shed they’re welcome to sleep at the end of our bed:)
“On short notice, Samantha dropped in to watch our cat everyday for a week. it was very easy getting setup for the visits and Samantha was excellent about keeping us informed and up to date. Would highly recommend Samantha to anyone looking for a pet sitter”

About: I am a big dog lover. Our family have owned miniatures schnauzers for many years. We recently lost our last one. I miss her dearly and want to be around other dogs. I enjoy long walks so doing it with a furry friend will make them more enjoyable. I plan to donate 1/2 of the proceedes made to animal charities. I have time in the evenings and on weekends to care for your dog for home visits and walks. I am flexible with my evening schedule and can accommodate requirements most weekday evenings between 6pm-10pm and most times on weekends. I am planning to start with home visits and dog walking. I will walk or use a car to get to your home. If we eventually offer visit in our home, we have all the necessary toys and equipment to keep all pets safe.
“Amy was so lovely to deal with and took wonderful care of our kitty Lily while we were away. I could tell from the pictures that Lily was enjoying herself while we were gone and looked pretty happy and playful as usual. From the moment Amy met Lily, I knew that she really was a cat person who cared deeply for animals and that Lily would be in great hands. I definitely won't hesitate to book Amy the next time we need care for our kitty.”

“Kate was so sweet with Bandit and very diligent about following care instructions. She also sent so many photos per visit! I came home to a very happy kitty. I would definitely hire her to catsit Bandit again!”

About: I offer cozy, calm, and attentive care for both cats and dogs, with a special understanding of how important routine and comfort are - especially for cats. I have experience caring for pets with different personalities, from shy or independent cats to friendly, easygoing dogs. I’m patient, detail-oriented, and respectful of each pet’s unique needs, whether that’s playtime, walks, quiet companionship, or simply keeping their routine consistent. I’m happy to provide regular photo updates so you can feel at ease while you’re away. I have lots of availability with reasonable notice. I keep a consistent schedule and am usually free after 4pm for check-ins, walks, feeding, and evening routines. I’m also available in the mornings when needed and happy to work around your pet’s normal schedule. I go above and beyond to provide safe, attentive care in both my home and my client’s home. My experience working in a veterinary setting has given me a strong foundation in animal care, with particular expertise in cats. I’m detail-oriented, calm in new situations, and always prioritize your pet’s comfort, safety, and routine. I'm happy to bring in mail, clean your home, and take care of plants if needed as well!

Sam is a very reliable and caring dog sitter. She takes her job seriously. Our 1 year old golden got sick out of the blue but we still needed someone to check on him during the week. She was very professional during her walks/check-ins making sure he was doing well when she saw him and gave thorough updates.

Devon was so great with the cats. They are rescues and are usually very shy with unknown people. By day two, they were both cuddling with her, I couldnt believe it! She has a great energy about her and took care of my cats as well as I do. Will definitely book her again. Thanks Devon!

My lil cat Oreo clearly loves Heather! Heather’s taken care of Oreo a few times, and I always come back home to a happy, relaxed kitty; which is the best signal. Heather is very responsive, responsible, and follows all instructions while sending great updates and photos. I can always trust her with my furry baby! :)

We are so grateful to have found Izzy, she’s incredible with our two cats. One of our cats is very timid but Izzy carefully and thoughtfully built trust with her while we were away. Izzy also sent lots of updates about the cats and we were really pleased with how she handled everything. Thank you Izzy!

Braden was absolutely amazing with my dog, and his experience and genuine compassion for animals truly show. My dog has special needs, and leaving the country for a few weeks is always stressful for me, but knowing he will be left in such attentive and capable hands gives me complete peace of mind. I highly recommend Braden to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and reliable pet sitter.

Marta took such wonderful care of our cats, Maverick and Goose, while my partner and I were away. She visited them, played with them, and made sure they were happy and well cared for. From the photos she shared, we could see just how much they loved her and genuinely looked forward to her visits. Knowing they were in such great hands completely put us at ease while we were away on our honeymoon. We couldn’t recommend Marta more and will absolutely be hoping she can take care of our cats again in the future.
