Dog Boarding in Youbou

“Marcy provided excellent care for my deaf dog Benson during a three-night stay. She’s accommodating and easy to communicate with; the pictures and videos she sent put my mind at ease. Because she does daycare and overnights for multiple dogs at the same time, I appreciate her procedures to ensure their safety, as well as the consideration she gives to which dogs will get along best. She earned Benson’s trust and he was clearly very relaxed and happy with her. I’ll certainly call on her again and recommend her to friends.”

“Mickey came home from his overnight stay with Janice and Bear completely exhausted. The dogs played nonstop so Mickey was in his glory. A tired dog is a happy dog! Thanks Janice and Bear!!”

“Amazing! This was my first time leaving Lucca with a pet sitter and so I was fairly nervous. Haley and Mark were amazing. Lucca needs at least 3 or so good walks/runs each week to be at his best and Haley and Mark delivered! I received regular updates with pictures and Lucca looked so happy. I also worried that Lucca could come home with some undesirable new behaviour but Haley and Mark were respectful of the rules we have for him and Lucca came back to us just as we left him. Haley and Mark are great. I highly recommend them and I will certainly consider them.firat if I need a dog sitter again.”

“Lindsey was great, she took our dog on a last minute notice and took great care of him. He had medication to take and she gave him all of it everyday and sent us pictures while we were gone”

“Jody was awesome at communicating, easy going, and took wonderful care of my dog. I felt very at ease leaving him with her! He got lots of love and walks and I got lots of pictures along the way ?”

“Im so happy we found Kelly and Nat! I’m very picky with who I leave my high energy and anxious dog with but after a meet and greet I felt very comfortable leaving Kaiya with them. Very knowledgeable, calm and responsible. Super easy to communicate with, very fast to respond and lots of updates while Kaiya was with them. We would highly recommend them and will be using them again. Thank you so so much!!”

About: I have had pets my whole life. I grew up on a farm so I have experience with a wide range or animals, but I really love dogs and cats. Pets are family and I will love yours like my own. I have experience administering topical and oral medications as well. I work from home so my schedule is very flexible. I don't have to travel much for work so I can be available on weekends and holidays. I have a large fenced yard and live close to some lovely trails. I have a Golden-Irish Setter who is the biggest, lovable goof ever. He loves other dogs! I also have 2 cats that get along with my dog and usually just hide under the bed until they get used to the new one! Sam (the dog) gets lots of walks and cuddles and treats...he's a little spoiled.

“Sunny & Cole stayed with Susan & Robin for 9 nights. We were nervous finding new sitters for them as they haven’t stayed with anyone in a while. We were thrilled with everything. They were so happy when we picked them up it was clear they were very well cared for and loved. We will 100% use Susan and Robin again they are wonderful people and took the best care of our puppers:)”

“Chelsea was so accommodating and super responsive with our same day request to have our dog for 2 nights over a long weekend (our other sitter had to cancel due to a sudden family emergency). Our dog Bailey was happy at drop off and pickup, and Chelsea was amazing in coming through for us. Bailey was in great hands with Chelsea and well taken care of and loved during her stay. Would definitely recommend and book again if we need a dog sitter in Nanaimo!”

“This is our second time using Yuet. Gabby spent the weekend with Yuet while we got married. She always sends pics and is quick to respond to my msgs. Gabby came home happy and tired 😁”

“Marcel took my dog Molly for the day while I was at a meeting and she was instantly comfortable with them and their pup. I was in from out of town and had to make a quick decision and I am so glad I found this option for my dog Molly 🐾 If we’re back this way I will be sure to contact you again!”

“Our dog Connor loved Emily and had a great time playing with her dog in the backyard and rolling in the snow. We are happy to have found a great and reliable person and will re-book with Emily for our next trip! I would recommend her to everyone looking for a trustworthy person to have your fluffy best friend stay with ♥️”

“It is with pleasure that we write this review for Emmelin. She has provided care for our senior dog on several locations. She has provided care in our home and in her home. And we always felt our dog was well looked after. She provides safe and engaging care. She also provides regular communication with photos and videos, so we can still feel connected to our for baby. Emmelin is very reliable and trustworthy and she will make any pet feel well cared for.”

“This was our first experience with Rover and Dorothy has set the bar high. I was a little anxious as I had never left my dog with someone unfamiliar to him. Dorothy kept us updated and sent daily pictures while we were away. Would definitely book with her again!”

“Deidre was super attentive and caring! Bear had lots of exercise and attention and enjoyed playing with Hoppy and Raven, who accepted her as one of the pack and both looked sad when she left. Bear cut her paw playing, which is not uncommon for her as she spins with a stick when she plays outside. Deidre spotted it immediately, contacted us, and offered to take her to the vet but she was also open to our usual treatment, of rest, keeping the paw clean, and flushing with saline solution. Deidre even had experience with this and did a great job. Her paw is looking good and we couldn’t be happier with the care our pooch received!”

About: I am a BC certified Service Dog trainer with over 12 years experience. I am available to share my calm and loving time with your beloved animal companion either in my home or in yours as a house sitter. I am retired with very few demands on my time. I train only one (full-time, live-in) service dog at a time so my hours are completely flexible. Safety first! Ensuring that the environment is safe and secure for the animal is priority one. After that, it is meeting the physical, nutritional, and emotional needs of the specific pet.

“Rica is truly exceptional with animals, showing them genuine care and love that they need.She goes above and beyond to ensure that all pets are not just taken care of, but happy and loved.”

About: I have always grown up with dogs and animals around me, I love to go on hikes and to the ocean with my furry friends to keep me company. I usually have duties such as, feeding the animal, grooming, bathing, and giving attention! I’m currently working full time but can do night visits and come back home on my break during the day, whatever is comfortable with you! I like to go out with the animals when they are doing there business to make sure they aren’t getting into trouble, or walking them around then Neighbour hood.

“Rejan took great care of our pup. She sent pictures and updates and was really responsive to our questions. This really helped us enjoy our weekend away even more.”

“Germán is an outstanding pet sitter who I've known for years. Their commitment to the safety and well-being of animals is unmatched. They create a nurturing environment where pets thrive, and their dedication to building trust with both pets and their owners is remarkable. I wholeheartedly recommend Germán to anyone in need of a loving and responsible pet care.”
