Sarah is a superstar! She took such great care of our cat, Birdie, while we were away. Her communication was always top-notch, with many photos sent during each of her drop-ins. She went above and beyond in keeping the house tidy. Thank you, Sarah!

Shirol is fantastic and goes above and beyond. My kitties are always happy and healthy with her, and I can be away knowing that they are safe and getting their daily snuggles and boops. I got back less than two days ago, and am already re-booking her ;) I recommend Shirol's petsitting services a thousand times over!

What an absolute delight having Valerie do a drop in for our three misfits! She has a very calm and kind demeanour and is very clearly a dog person! I could tell how much she really values understanding the dogs in her care and their way of being. She asked such great questions and was so attentive! I feel my dogs and home would be so safe & valued in her care. Thanks Valerie!

Not only was Allan GREAT with my dogs, he was flexible on Christmas Day! Today was our second walk and I loved seeing the dogs get excited to see him. I came back to find them loving all over him. Highly recommend. Would certainly go to Allan first if I was back here and needing a walker again!

The best part about going out of town is knowing Kristen is watching our 2 cats. She is absolutely amazing! You & your pets will be very happy to see her whenever she stops by. You can tell right away how much she cares about animals and the happiness of her clients. It’s a no brainer, if she is available, book her! If not, change your plans to when she is available!

Karin was a wonderful sitter. We received daily photos and updates for Toby, and we were able to relax on our vacation knowing he was in great hands. Karin asked lots of questions during our initial meeting and Toby appeared very comfortable with her.

Madeline took wonderful care of our toy poodle, Ziggy, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience. This was Ziggy’s first time being left alone with a sitter, so we were a bit nervous—but she immediately put both us and Ziggy at ease. She took him out for a walk, spent quality time playing with him, and gave him lots of cuddles and attention. It was clear from his behavior that he genuinely enjoyed her company and felt comfortable with her. Madeline is incredibly sweet, responsible, and attentive. We would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable pet sitter.

Kate and Grant are fabulous humans who looked after our kitties as if they were their own. They kept us up to date and let us know how our fur babies were doing. I highly recommend them, and they are now our go-to pet sitters. If you are looking for someone trustworthy who will take the best care of your pets, they are the ones!

About: I’ve had hands-on experience caring for cats my entire life, so I’m very comfortable with their routines, personalities, and needs. In addition to cat care, I’ve walked neighbours’ dogs and I’ve also volunteered through the Elder Dog program, where I helped walk dogs for seniors. This has given me experience with pets of different temperaments and energy levels, and an understanding of the importance of gentle, consistent care. I take pride in being attentive, dependable, and respectful of each pet’s individual needs. I’m available for boarding on weekends, and I work from home on some days, which allows flexibility for pet care during the week. I’m also available most weekdays after 4:00 pm for walks, check-ins, or sitting. I provide a calm, safe, quiet and pet-friendly environment in my home, with a large apartment and easy access to outdoor areas and walking trails.

About: Hello! I absolutely love cats & dogs and have cared for animals since childhood, starting with my own family pets. Over the years, I’ve gained experience helping friends, neighbours, and clients with dog walking, pet sitting, and overnight care, including caring for a senior blind dog over the course of a summer. I understand that every pet has different needs, personalities, and energy levels. Some pets love long walks and playtime, while others simply want calm companionship and routine. I always try to make animals feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I currently have no pets in my home, so your pet would have a quiet environment and plenty of attention during overnight stays if needed. My schedule is flexible, and I’m typically home mornings and evenings and away for shorter periods during the afternoon. I offer 30, 45, and 60 minute walks and prefer smaller groups (2–3 dogs max) so each dog receives proper attention, safety, and care during walks. I also love keeping owners updated with photos and messages so you can feel relaxed knowing how your pet is doing throughout the day. I’m attentive, reliable, calm under pressure, and genuinely love building trust with both pets and their owners. My goal is always for your pet to feel happy, safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. If I am house sitting, you will return to a clean and happy home! I would love to build long-term relationships with regular clients in Victoria and the surrounding area. I am pretty flexible as my work schedule tends to vary. I live in the Oak Bay area but am happy to travel for your pet needs. I care for pets the same way their owners would with consistency, love, and attention to detail. For in home stays: pets receive affection, playtime, and comfort. Cats have daily litter cleaning and scheduled feedings at their usual times, while dogs get two walks per day, potty breaks, feeding, and plenty of pets and love. For dog walks: I make sure they’re happy and refreshed with potty breaks, light grooming if needed so they’re clean when they return, and treats or feedings as directed. My goal is always to keep pets comfortable, cared for, and loved just like they are with you.

About: I have raised 2 dogs of my own, ranging from puppy to senior, both of whom fell on the high-maintenance side of the spectrum whether that be health issues, separation anxiety, or behaviour issues. I have honed my dog-mom skills over the years to a point where I feel confident I could look after just about any four legged friend with care and attentiveness. I work from home most days and walking is one of my all time favourite pass-times, so a dog fits into my lifestyle seamlessly. I can provide any level of communication during my rover window -- whether that be frequent photos and check-ins or a more hands-off approach. I'm flexible around logistics and specific needs so let's chat :) I'm available for boarding any time (aside from 8am to 5pm on Tuesdays). I just need an internet connection. I will make sure to abide by perimeters around maximum time left alone on weekends. I take safety extremely seriously. I'll make sure to match whatever the safety climate your pet is accustomed to (e.g. not leave any food out that could be ninja-ed off the counters etc)

About: I have been around animals my whole life. From BIG to small, from scaly to silky, my experience is vast and I LOVE them all! I trained my puppy Owen, and now 16 years later I'm assisting him in his old age. In 2001 I fostered a stray cat who birthed my kitten Tiny and two others. I had Tiny for 18 glorious years. My dedication to animals and commitment to excellent care is truly my life Passion. Currently, I work as a casual in the healthcare field. Specifically with adults with adverse abilities. My schedule is extremely flexible allowing me to make my own hours and availability. My care is based on the clients needs. I am extremely active, allowing for more high density walks or runs. I am also very intune with your animals mood and energy. I find like people, some days we wanna stroll or go with the flow and other days we wanna fly like the wind.

Maia was great checking in on my cat and alleviated a lot of stress for him when I was out of town. Maia is a true animal lover and my cat was comfortable with her right away. She is reliable, communicates well, and follows all the instructions for your pet. I am looking forward to her caring for my cat again.

Stacey is wonderful! My very elderly cat was very happy seeing Stacey twice a day and is happy and calm upon my return. Stacey sent me lovely pictures of my cat daily and I felt so confident with her care of my old girl. Stacey was so easy to talk to and her visits were just what was needed. I will definitely call on her again.

This review is for the series of 'get-to-know-you' drop-ins Gwynn and I scheduled before I was away for a week that they helped with. My pup is very barky right now and it can be intimidating for some people, but Gwynn and I managed to move through this phase with intention and ease. My little Luga quickly warmed to Gwynn, and after only a couple of brief visits together Luga quickly learned that it is in fact a very HAPPY occasion to see Gwynn ;) This phase of the relationship-building between Gwynn and Luga was a bit anxiety-inducing for me, but Gwynn is so professional and experienced and compassionate and in command of energies that everything went according to plan, and I could not be more grateful for it. Thank you, Gwynn!!!!! <3
