“Lauren was super helpful with our anxious dog. She allowed us to visit prior to our vacation, to help get Roo more comfortable, and provided lots of updates during Roo's stay. We are very thankful to Lauren for looking after our pup so kindly. Roo can't wait for her next visit!”
“Lisa was fantastic with Artemis! She was on time, and clearly gave Artemis great care; regular walks kept her active and happy. What really stood out was Lisa noticing when we were running low on dog food and offering to pick up more in case we were running late. She also gave us multiple touchpoints throughout our trip, which we appreciated. We highly recommend Lisa to anyone looking for a reliable, caring dog sitter!”
“Alexa took super care of my cat Remi, she sent me pictures all the time and supplied a litter box as well as a bunch of other stuff. She made the process super easy and personable. I would highly recommend using her. Thanks again Alexa!”
“Rachel and her family took great care of my dog, going on long walks, taking her to the beach, and taking her in the car when they went places. They made sure my pup was happy, healthy, and safe.”
“Angela and her partner were so wonderful with our Yrsa. This was the first time we've boarded her, so we were really nervous. Angela was so calm and Yrsa loved her. We would definitely book with her again.”
About: I have had pets of all kinds my whole life from hamsters to turtles to cats and my father later in life adopted dogs for me to care for when returning home. I started taking care of dogs when I was travelling for work in the USA through Trusted Housesitters with my partner. After having a child we have had fish, enjoy taking our friends' dogs for morning walks and cat-boarding for colleagues at work. I love living in Victoria and am lucky to live in a nice neighbourhood with big parks and nice walks. Walking is my favourite exercise and walking with company is the best! I am going to use the dog walking extra money to fundraise for my daughter's trip to DisneyLand this February 2027. I want to walk dogs in the morning before work and school for exercise and enjoy the early hours. I am also raising money to go on a trip to Disney Land. Having used Trusted Housesitters, I have stayed in other people's houses to care for their pets for up to a month. I also used to run an Airbnb with my partner so we could travel and have experience cleaning and taking care of the home with pets. I keep a clean and tidy home with my daughter, mostly to keep track of everything haha 😂 I have split level apartment at the top two floors of a house with open spaces and 2 bathrooms. I have a gated front patio and a giant dog park across the street. Lots of places to walk and enjoy the great weather of Victoria.
“Thank you Rojin, knowing how much I care about my little Charlie, I couldn’t have chosen a better sitter.What a caring and kind young lady you are. I think Charlie will miss you and your little pooch (Cookie). I will not hesitate to using Rojin as Charlie’s sitter next time needed in Victoria.Top notch care.”
“Super grateful to Christie for taking great care of my shichon Zoey. Christie's shih tzu/Maltese, Jax, and Zoey became fast friends and I received regular updates. I will be rebook w Christie anytime I visit Ottawa again :)”
“Responsive, lots of photos of my pup, very kind and helped me out when my flight got delayed by watching the dog another night last minute. Highly recommend for boarding and would happily have them watch my pup again :)”
“Rizzo had a great time with Emerald! Communication the entire time was super easy and she sent great updates and pics of my girl 😊 I felt really comfortable leaving my pup with her and she came back tired and happy from some big walks! I would definitely book Emerald again if I am in the area! This was my first time using Rover to have Rizzo stay overnight and it was a really great experience. Thanks again Emerald!!”
“Karheek and their family took wonderful care of our Border Collie, Sophie. They gave her lots of attention and exercise, and we felt completely comfortable knowing she was so well cared for while we were away. We would highly recommend them to any dog owner, and will certainly call on them again when needed. Sophie’s new extended family in Victoria.”
“Sandeep took excellent care of Mocha and Bailey while we were away on our 2 week vacation. He sent us photos and videos everyday which brought us great joy and comfort. You can tell Sandeep strongly cares for animals. I would strongly recommend Sandeep to anyone looking for a genuine caring dog sitter.”
“Kelsey was a wonderful host to our little Brodie! You could tell it was a vacation for him too and that he was a content pooch in her care. She was super responsive and sent lots of photos and videos while we were gone. Super grateful for her care and will absolutely use her in the future. Highly recommend!”
“Amazing! Highly recommended, was in a pinch for safe boarding for my Dane and after four days Hendrix came home and slinked upstairs to our bed to pass out for 5hrs. Will be making this our primary for additional care. Highly recommended!!”
“Stephanie was very kind in assisting us to sea plane while picking up our dog. She followed our wishes and was on time and dependable with our pet. Highly recommend!”

We were very pleased to have Terry look after our dog .She was a great communicator and provided us with photos every day. It was very apparent that she makes a great connection with the dogs she looks after. I would not hesitate to recommend her to others who are looking for a lovely place to board your dog.
Iris is caring and capable, and has a large fenced yard and a friendly golden retriever that my dog got along very well with (apparently they played a lot!). She is home with them most of the time and takes them out for 2 walks a day. It was reassuring to know Ellie was well taken care of.
Niya cared for our two precious cats beautifully. She sent us photos while we we’re away which we really enjoyed & appreciated. Our cats were so happy they didn’t want to come home with us! We definitely hope Niya can help us again in future. Thank you Niya! ps - we gave her a monetary tip when we fetched the cats
Stacey took care of my two elderly dogs and did such a wonderful job She gave me pictures throughout and you could tell they enjoyed their time with her. One needed medication and she kept her in the best shape. Will definitely ask her to take take care of my girls again!
We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter than Laila for our dog Filson! She sent great photo updates, communicated and provided a safe, comfortable home environment. Laila is just a genuinely kind/cool person. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for attentive, top-tier pet care!
Anqian and Alexandre were absolutely amazing. They watched our dog Bailey for about 12 hours while we were touring. We got many updates and even a few pictures of Bailey which was so comforting. They were very friendly and I would recommend them to anyone staying in the area.
Maddison is always so wonderful - we’ve had her watch our dog several times now and have had such a great experience every time! She has great communication, such positive energy, and is incredibly kind. Being able to go on vacation and genuinely not worry about whether our dog is happy and well cared for is such a blessing. We always know he’s in great hands with her. Thanks so much, Maddison :)
