About: Hi! I’m your dog’s next best friend. Ever since I was little, I’ve had a big love for dogs—blame it on growing up with a tiny teacup poodle who ruled the house. These days, I have my own golden retriever, Penny, who’s basically sunshine wrapped in fur. We hike, we walk, we sniff interesting things (well, she does), and we’re always up for more adventure buddies. Whether your pup is a zoomie champion or a slow-stroll sniffer, I’d love to be their midday walking pal or morning hiking sidekick. I’m punctual, reliable, and will 100% treat your dog like my own. Let’s be honest—your dog deserves some fresh air, leg stretches, and a walking buddy who’s in it for the tail wags and muddy paws. As of September I am going back to school but will be available Monday- Friday before 9:00am or after 2:00pm. If you do not see a time, or day available please reach out and I will see what I can do! I understand how important exercise, routine and love are for healthy and happy pets. I tailor every walk to fit their unique personality and needs.

About: Elizabeth - Having cared for various neighborhood dogs since childhood, I bring a wealth of experience to my dog-sitting services. My beloved chocolate lab lived a long and joyful life, which has given me valuable insight into the unique needs of senior dogs. Joao - Growing up in Portugal, I've had a lot of pets in my lifetime including dogs, cats, birds, turtles, chinchillas, hedgehogs and fish. I especially love dogs. I trained my current dog to sit and lie down using hand signals without any professional help. Recently, we've expanded our services to include dog-sitting in the comfort of our neighbors’ homes. Your furry friends will receive love, companionship, and professional care while you’re away. We are completely smoke-free and will keep your home just how you left it. We look forward to providing a safe and happy environment for your pets :) Elizabeth - As I work online, I’m always present and attentive to the dogs/cats in my care. Joao - Currently I'm not working, as I've just arrived in Canada from Portugal with a Working Holiday visa. I'm around to fit into the pet's usual schedule. We can administer medication and tailor our services to meet the specific needs of each dog/cat. We maintain the pet's usual routine, including feeding schedules, exercise, and playtime. We love to spend quality time with our new furry friends and provide regular updates to the owner through texts or photos, keeping them informed about how their pet is doing.

“Maddy has been walking my Border Collie for several months and he always comes home super happy and ready for bed! Charlie needs a lot of exercise and play, Maddy has been great at making time in her busy schedule to give him the attention he needs. She always sends updates and feedback with lots of cute photos. I would highly recommend her and will continue to book her for as long as she has time.”


“Scott is amazing. Opie absolutely loves him and has become much more relaxed. I am sure it is because he feels safe with Scott. He is a huge dog but at heart he is a coward. I would recommend Scott to anyone, Opie and I couldn't be happier!”


“This is the third time that Aly has taken care of our dog and we can’t be more happy. We are from out of town and my dog remembers Aly and is excited to see her. He comes back tired from having so much fun. Aly is completely reliable and a fun easy communicator. She even sends pictures proving that Cosmo is enjoying himself. Will use Aly’s services next time for sure!””


About: I’ve always loved animals. I am a nurse so I don’t currently have the proper time for a dog of my own. So I thought this was a great opportunity to spend some time doing something I love and helping take care of someone you love. Can only stop so many people in the street to pet there dogs I am a full time nurse. I work shift work leaving blocks of days off. My schedule does vary but often have week days off My main interest would be in dog walking and visits. Im trusted within my job to keep people loved ones safe. And I want to do that for you and your pet

“We’ve had Mitchel come a couple of times now and he’s awesome. I got off work unexpectedly early the other day and Mitchel was still there. My pup whined at the door for like 10 mins when he left. Loves him. You won’t regret trusting your pets with this polite, punctual, animal loving guy.”


About: I have had 4-legged animals for most of my life. I also know CPR for Animals and I am certified and have a Nursing Background. . . I am currently retired. I have had dogs and cats almost my entire life. I have a nursing background and I’ve also taken CPR for dogs and cats. I love animals and now that I have more time off I find myself looking after my friends and neighbour's dogs. Up until just a few weeks ago when I lost my little girl… I find I have way too much time on my hands and really miss four-legged companions. Warning… I will treat your babies like I treat my own. They will be loved, pampered and cared for. I will respect your wishes if there are certain things you don’t want them to have or if you’re trying to train them I will follow your instructions on what you want for them. But I hope you’re not going to mind when I spoil them just a little bit. I was also involved in the SPCA in the lower mainland and help them out when they needed someone. I have a fenced yard. I’m not too far from Mutrie Park. Depending on the Pet parents whether they would like me to come to them or if they’re fine with them staying with me. When they’re here, they have full range of the house which is pet proof….

About: I have two cats and home and used to care for my dog until he passed away for a good 15 years! I really miss the social aspect of caring for a dog and absolutely love my cats! My friends and family rely on me to take care of their pets when they’re away. I’m a full time nurse on a rotating schedule. I don’t have a regular 9-5 schedule which can be advantage! I get 5 days off every 9 days which allows me to accomodate to a variety of schedules. I also have my schedule a head of time which allows me to commit to certain requests ahead of time. I have a fenced yard & my cats do not go outdoors. I am very careful when it comes to taking care of pets and would take care of them as if they were my own.
