“Karen was exceptional with our blizzard and kept him for an extra night. She took him on hikes and walks and helped with potty training. Sent us tons of photos and made blizzard feel like he’s part of the pack! They had a great time!! We will use Karen as our go to every time we are in Whistler!”

“Truly exceptional caregiver. We got a ton of amazing photos and updates. Jade took the pups on a bunch of daily adventures, meeting friends, and doing their favourite activities. We travel a lot, so making sure our dogs are happy and healthy when we are away is super important, and Jade did a great job at making sure that was the case.”

“Sona looked after our dog, Buddy, while we enjoyed a weekend at Whistler. She did an amazing job, and we couldn’t be more happy at the care and attention. She sent many pictures of Buddy playing in the snow, and having a great time. I would also like to say how impressed we were at her communication before, and during his stay. Thank you again, Sona!”

“Damian was fantastic. This was the first time I have used Rover and left Lenny with a stranger. Damian was great with sending updates and pictures. Lenny is a high energy 2 year old Golden Retriever, he came back happy and tired. I would recommend Damian to anyone who is looking for dog care in Whistler.”

About: I’ve loved caring for animals since I was a teenager, starting with my beloved sausage dog (even if some say they’re not “real” dogs!). Since moving to Whistler, I’ve regularly dog-sat for friends whenever they traveled and couldn’t bring their pups along. For the past two years, my partner and I have had a hedgehog, but since he’s nocturnal, I’ve definitely felt a bit of an “attention void” during the day—so I’d love to give your pet all the care and affection they deserve! I work from home as a sales rep for a pool construction company, and ever since COVID, all my meetings happen online, over the phone, or through email. That means I’m home most of the time, which makes it easy to give your doggie plenty of attention throughout the day! We live in a house with a spacious living room where pets can relax and feel at home when I’m pet-sitting. Our neighborhood is perfect for dogs, with dog parks and forest trails just a few minutes away—so your furry friend will get plenty of walks and outdoor time! Even while I’m working, I always keep an eye on them to make sure they’re safe, comfortable, and getting the attention they need.
“Hillary was awesome with my pup! She made her feel right at home with lots of toys and couch time. Her dog Max seemed to get along well with my dog as well, great to have a companion in the house. She provided regular updates throughout the week, with lots of outdoor time and walks.”

“Lawrence was amazing at accommodating my crazy schedule for pick up and drop off. Charlie was well taken care of, he was a relaxed and happy boy when I came to pick him up. Won't hesitate to ask Lawrence again in the future for help.”

“Ty - Can’t thank you enough for taking care of our little girl “Pina” in Whistler, BC. To everyone else, she is a rescue from Mexico and still getting comfortable with her new world. The second she met Ty, we knew we could relax at our daughter’s wedding reception.. First class and will be asking for Ty in any future stays!! - thanks again Ty! - Mike & Arlene (Garibaldi Highlands, BC)”

About: I've always loved animals and had my own gerbils as a small child. As a family we regularly looked after friends' dogs and later got our dog (Cleo, a mini schnauzer). I always helped with looking after her, training, walks etc and love spending time with animals. Now I've moved to Canada, I miss hanging out with pets and would love to help look after your pets! I work remotely most of the week so have a flexible schedule. I'm able to take dogs out for multiple walks a day and make sure they have everything they need! I don't have a garden but I am right on a valley trail so easy access for walks or quick pee breaks! I live in a ground floor apartment with plenty of space for your pet to hang out. If I am looking after your pet in your home, I follow their regular routines to make sure they feel comfortable.
“Carla, Jeremy, Poppy and Mavi were just amazing with Roxy. We could tell Roxy was getting as much love and attention as she does at home. We would highly recommend them to dog sit, dog walk or board anytime. Thanks so much. Roxy is looking forward to her next visit.”

“Amanda took very good care of our 3 year old Australian shepherd who had never had a dog sitter before. We went away for the weekend, and was so delighted to hear from her throughout the time we were away- she shared how he was doing and showed photos of him having fun on his doggy walk through Alice Lake. It was really comforting to hear that:) Thomas and Amanda have a very friendly demeanour and enjoy looking after furry friends! I would highly recommend her to anyone searching for a reliable and responsible dog sitter.”

About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life, so I get how to keep young puppies happy and active or give extra TLC to senior pups. Whether it’s fun walks, playtime, or cozy care, I’m all about making your dog feel loved and keeping those tails wagging! Pet care is my daily jam! As a dog walker, I take pups on fun hikes, blending work with love for dogs. My wife’s home to keep an eye on them, and our 5-year-old golden retriever loves making new friends. We have an 8 year old that will also be around the pets but always under supervision. My family loves your dog like our own. I lead leashed walks, staying alert for other dogs. My wife and son ensure constant care, and our golden retriever plays gently. Your pup stays happy and safe!
“Our senior dog received the *best* care! Vanessa is experienced - so kind, thoughtful, and responsive. Grandma JoJo greeted Vanessa with a wagging tail, enjoyed walks around the village, and came home with clean bedding 😊 We appreciated the photo updates as well as the flexibility and understanding with grandma. 10/10 would recommend Vanessa!”

About: I started pet-sitting when my beloved cat Briciola passed away. I was missing her so much but couldn’t get another cat as I was traveling all the time, so I posted an ad and had the chance to look after three adorable cats while I was studying in Bologna. When I first moved to Berlin I used to walk my host family’s dog Flora every morning and every noon. I would take her to the lake for a 20/30-minute walk. Last summer 2017 my mom and I rescued a little dog in Italy we named Gigio who’s now our sweetheart! He loves to go on the beach in the early morning to take long walks along the shore; he loves to play and he’s such a fountain of love and happiness. I’m currently working full time, so please, send me a message before booking service. I will do my best to accommodate your and your pet’s needs. I live in a fairly big apartment with my partner. We do not have a yard but a small balcony. We keep the door closed all times if pets are around. I also always make sure your pet is under my supervision .
About: I have looked after dogs and cats for many years. While I don’t have a dog at home currently (my last dog, Iggy, an Australian Kelpie passed away in March at 15 years old) I would like to welcome fur babies from time to time. I work part time from home so I have plenty of time to look after doggies. It’s just my 9 year old daughter and myself and we both adore 4 legged companions. I live on a quiet cul-de-suc with plenty of greenery and snow in winter with a dog park near by (walking distance). I offer plenty of short outdoor breaks or long walks (whatever the preference is). I can provide regular updates and plenty of pictures/videos. I am happy to look after senior dogs or puppies as I have experienced with both.
“Rob and Elis were amazing. They treated Major like family! He was introduced to many different dogs while he stayed and got lots of play time and socialization. They took Major for hikes, swims and lots of time out doors with lots of check ins and videos to keep me in the loop. I would highly recommend them if your needing someone to watch your furry friend for an hour, day or even a week. Would definitely book with them again. Thank you so much you two! 🙂”

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for over 20 years and currently foster for a local rescue, so I’m very comfortable with all personalities, ages, and needs. I’ve had many dogs stay in my home for extended visits (up to a month), and I treat every pup like part of the family. I genuinely love dogs and look forward to giving yours a safe, calm, and caring home while you’re away. I work from home, so I’m always around! Your pup will be part of the pack, joining me and my dog for daily walks and plenty of company. I have a fenced backyard and live just 10 seconds from the trails, so plenty of adventure awaits! My two-year-old poodle, Nori, will be a built-in buddy. She absolutely loves other dogs and playtime, but she is high energy, so she’s the best match for pups who enjoy playing or don’t mind an enthusiastic friend. You know your dog best when it comes to fit.
About: Hi, I’m Rachel! I’ve spent my whole life around dogs and cats and love spending time in their company. I know how important it is to give pets not just care, but love, patience, and attention. I have owned my own dogs and cats and have worked with them professionally too, as a dog aquafit specialist in Vancouver. Now, i work from home in Squamish a few days a week, which means I can offer plenty of company, playtime, walks and snuggles. I also have a toddler who is very respectful of animals and loves being around them. Your pet will always feel safe and comfortable in our home. Whether it’s walks, cuddles, or just a calm presence, I’ll treat your furry family member like my own. Pet care naturally fits into my daily routine because I’ve always had animals in my life. I’m used to feeding, walking, playtime, and giving lots of affection throughout the day. Since I work from home a few days a week, I have the flexibility to provide companionship and regular check-ins. On the days I’m not home full time, I still structure my mornings and evenings around pet care, whether that’s longer walks, cuddle time, or keeping up with their routines. In my home, pets are treated like family. I make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and loved by keeping to their normal routines—whether that’s walks, playtime, feeding schedules, or quiet cuddle time. I’m attentive to their needs and always provide plenty of supervision, affection, and stimulation. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow your instructions closely to make sure your pet feels secure in their own environment. I maintain their regular schedule, give them lots of attention, and provide updates so you know how they’re doing while you’re away.

Sona was amazing with Nala! She took her for walks and played with her lots. We felt kept in the loop with the few daily updates (including pictures), but not overwhelmed. We’ll definitely be booking again with Sona for a winter ski trip coming February. We cannot recommend her enough to any one looking for a good dog sitter in Whistler.

Truly exceptional caregiver. We got a ton of amazing photos and updates. Jade took the pups on a bunch of daily adventures, meeting friends, and doing their favourite activities. We travel a lot, so making sure our dogs are happy and healthy when we are away is super important, and Jade did a great job at making sure that was the case.

I had a wonderful experience with my dog sitters, Billy and couldn’t recommend him more. He truly treated my dog, Molly like she was his own. She went on lots of walks, got plenty of attention, and looked completely happy and relaxed the entire time. He sent regular photos and updates, which gave me so much peace of mind while I enjoyed skiing with family. One of my favorites was a photo of her rolling on her back, completely carefree and clearly feeling right at home. His communication was excellent from start to finish. Thank you again for taking such great care of my girl!

Damien and his partner Lisa were wonderful! They made pick up and drop off seamless, provided updates with pictures on our pups and took great care of the girls! If you are in Whistler looking for a sitter, I would absolutely recommend leaving your fur babies with Damien!

Tyler (and his wife) were amazing. We needed someone on super short term notice and they took our pup Scooby in within hours. They took extra care of him with his injury and gave him all his medications on time. As he’s a puppy (an exceptionally high maintenance one at that) they had a lot of patience for him and were great at helping him be the best boy. Would definitely use them again and highly reccomend to anyone in Whistler that needs animal care!

Wow, what a lucky find to come across Arvid and for our first Rover experience as well! Incredibly generous with Maple with many walks, adventures and plays. I appreciated the photos and updates- excellent communication throughout. Highly recommend, Arvid will be a Maple buddy forever!
