About: Hey :) I've lived in Whistler for just over 3 years, after moving from Cambridge (UK) and work for the mountain. I enjoy hiking, skiing and going to the gym on my weekend! Growing up, I have had all the pets, including a dog. I also grew up with chickens, ducks, quail and rhea (a bit like an ostrich). I am currently a Team Lead for Whistler Blackcomb so am used to responsibility :). I can be flexible with durations if needed 🐶 I am available most days after 6pm for walks and drop in visits, to look after your pet whilst you enjoy Whistler. I am available all day on Thursday, Friday and Saturday😊. I work Sunday - Wednesday during the daytime :) I treat all clients homes with respect and will treat your pet like its my own, I may also have to take a few cute photos along the way!
About: My name is Jennie and my husband, James, and I would love to spend some time with your pup! :) We are full time dog sitters and love having a little companion by our sides. I have a hybrid work schedule where I split my time between the office and home (James works full time from home). Since I work from home most of the time your pup will rarely be without a companion, and we available for potty breaks and a walk during the day. I am comfortable taking on long term stays with your pup and home. James and I live in a 1 bedroom suite in Alpine close to Meadow Park. Dogs are free to cuddle up and hang with us on the couch or in bed to watch TV at night. We spend lots of time outside and love to go on walks and play at the park. We’re available to continue which ever daily practices they enjoy and I’ll make sure they have lots of fun while staying with us! And most importantly, we will keep them safe and take after them as if they were ours. July 1st we are moving into a 1 bedroom apartment in Alpine :)
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.
About: My love for pets is what sparked me to enter the wonderful world of pet sitting. I understand the importance of trusting someone to care for your "kids". I grew up surrounded by furry friends, and since we currently rent and can’t have our own dog, Rover gives my partner Nathan and I our much needed fix of animal cuddles! 🐶❤️ About Tori & Nathan Pet sitting is currently my second job, and I love spending my free time giving pets the love and attention they deserve. This is a shared responsibility between my partner Nathan and I. We work different shifts, so when I’m at work, Nathan will be with the doggies, and vice versa. This means your pet gets plenty of company and care throughout their stay. My regular days off are Tuesday and Wednesday and boarding can be accommodated throughout the week around our schedules. Your pet will enjoy a mix of time in our home, outdoor adventures and plenty of playtime, cuddles and relaxation. We love keeping dogs active and entertained while also giving them a comfortable, home like environment where they can feel safe and settled.
About: I have mainly taken care of cats including boarding, feeds, playtime and pats and am wanting to also branch out to look and care for dogs. I am currently working fulltime in the village, however have a flexible working roster which means I am avaliable different times of the day and can adapt accordingly. Am adaptable to whatever the pets needs are. Provide love and care with lots of pats and attention as if it were my own fur baby.
About: Dogs have always been a big part of my life. I’ve fostered shelter pups and looked after lots of Rover dogs, and love getting to know each personality, giving them all my love and attention. I treat every dog like they’re my own. I mainly work from home Mon-Friday, and love having a furry friend to keep me company. I can always do morning, lunch and evening walks. Happy to also work from anywhere if your dog prefers company in their own space. I do not have a fenced yard, but I will make sure your dog gets plenty of opportunities to go outside. I am about 30 seconds from the dog park in alpine :) I love dogs as if they are my own, and will make sure they are loved and taken care of.
About: I've had pets around my house for my entire life, cats, dogs, reptiles, fish, hamsters, guinea pigs. Ever since I moved to Whistler, I haven't been able to find a place that allows pets, so I am on here to help spread my joy and love for animals, and give them back the love they all deserve. I am very responsible, live minutes from the dog park, and get along great with animals. I have been a local for 6 years so I have a good understanding of the neighborhoods in Whistler, and I also understand all the pet restrictions and policies in town. I am very understanding when it comes to cats and dogs, they all have varying personalities and each need a special kind of attention. I would love to fill my time looking after your furry little friend!

About: I’ve done dog walking and pet sitting on and off for around two years back home in Australia and have always loved being around dogs. I’m happy to help with walks, drop-in visits or stay at your home while you’re away. I love getting outside for a good walk or adventure, but I’m just as happy hanging out at home and giving your dog plenty of attention and cuddles. I’ll always make sure they’re happy, comfortable and well looked after! I currently work part-time and my schedule is pretty flexible, so I have plenty of time for walks, visits and pet sitting. I’m happy to work around your pet’s normal routine and can be pretty flexible depending on what you need! I know it can be a little nerve-racking leaving your pet with someone new, so I’ll always follow whatever routine and instructions you leave for me. Whether that’s feeding, walks, medication or just how they like to settle in at home, I’ll make sure they’re comfortable and get lots of attention while you’re away. I’m also more than happy to send photos and updates!

“Sophie was awesome…! We brought 2 dogs up to Whistler - both above 80 lbs (doodle mix and Great Dane). She took them out together and they had a ball. What I appreciated most was that Sophie communicated consistently, was flexible when we asked for a longer day (hrs with both dogs), and they explored and adventures…! Our pets are family, and when we go away we want them to have fun, as well. Sophie asked great ?s in advance (not too many, tho) and was delightful. We would recommend Sophie!! ❤️”

Jade was awesome with Loki! She obviously loves dogs, and made Loki feel totally comfortable with her. She instilled me with confidence that she could handle my energetic girl, and they clearly had a great, long walk together. I will definitely ask her to walk Loki again!
Thanks for your afternoon with Max. Karen was a big help covering an afternoon walk and outing for our active pup. She was helpful with working out a schedule and getting a quick home visit in to introduce herself. We loved all the text and photo updates and will absolutely recommend and use her services again. Thanks so much. Max had a great time
