About: I grew up with three dogs and have tons of experience with puppies, seniors, and everything in between. I’m super active and love taking dogs for long, energizing walks or even runs if they’re up for it. Whether your pup needs a solid workout or just gentle company, I’ll tailor the outing to their needs. Plus I’m happy to brush, clean up, and give them all the love they deserve. I’m a student currently off for the summer with a totally open schedule. I don’t have any pets of my own right now, so I’m looking for creative and fun ways to spend time with the creatures I love. Whether it’s walks, play, or just hanging out, I’m happy to give your pet the time and attention they deserve. I have a car and can easily drive to nearby dog parks for some safe off-leash fun, or I’m happy to walk your dog on leash around your neighborhood or in any enclosed area. I’m also more than happy to play with your dog in your fenced yard. Your pet’s safety and comfort always comes first.

About: Hello! I'm Jane and I'm thrilled to offer my pet sitting services to you. As a trusted go-to pet sitter for my clients the past 5 years, I've honed my skills caring for both reactive and non-reactive dogs, whether they need a safe space to stay while you’re on vacation or just a friendly companion for the day. With a background in psychology, I understand canine behaviors and reinforcing positive actions with consistent rewards. Your pet's safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities, and I stay vigilant and aware at all times to ensure they---and everyone around them---are safe and sound. Beyond my pet-sitting duties, I engage in weekly boxing classes and community choir practices, nurturing my love for new adventures. Choose me as your dog sitter because I don't just care for pets; I truly adore them and invest in making their time away from you as enjoyable and enriching as possible. I give only the very best love and attention to your 'fur child,' whether they are a cat or dog! For dogs, I take them on brisk walks 2 - 3 times a day; treating them to the occasional pup cup; and playing/snuggling with them to help them feel right at home during their stay with me. Cats love to lounge around in the sun in my place, as I have large windows. I work from home and my apartment is right downtown, so it's easy for me to look after your beloved pet and incorporate their care into schedule. I'm very active anyways, so this suits my lifestyle and I would love to welcome your pet into my home. My apartment is warm and inviting, with corner windows, lots of plants and plenty of cozy spots for dogs/cats to enjoy...including my living room carpet which furry friends love to nap on. My building is also very secure; has a rooftop spot for potty breaks for dogs and there are loads of spots around for nice long walks & sniffs! Your pet - if small/medium sized, can sleep on my comfy couch or at the foot of my bed. I already have a food and water bowl that I clean regularly for them, so you don't need to bring that with you. Animals seem to natural warm to me, and love to snuggle next to me when I'm watching a movie or see what I'm cooking in the kitchen. I'm generous, kind and want to put you mind at ease when you pets stay with me.

About: Lifelong animal lover with experience caring for and supporting in the training of pets. I offer gentle, consistent care and a calm presence your dog can trust! My schedule is pretty open as I work for myself and make my own hours, I can also be flexible within my availabilty as needed. Your pet's safety, comfort and well being are my top prority! I provide a calm grounded presence and can follow your pet's routine closely to help them feel secure. Whether I'm walking your dog or visiting your home, I treat every space and animal with deep respect, kindness and care-just as I would my own 🫶

About: Every animal I look after becomes a mutual journey of discovery and awesome reminder of how unique and precious each animal is and they are great teachers of love, play and loyalty :) I am currently exploring the island and my schedule is wide open. I have the time since I left my full-time position, to give full attention to each animal I serve. I follow house rules and safety and happiness are the top of my list. I send text messages and pics every day and spend all my day with each animal I look after.

About: I have owned and cared for all sorts of animals professionally my entire life. While pursuing my Bachelor's degree I continued to work with animals and study animal welfare and behaviour. I take great pride in my attentive nature and promised to go above and beyond for your pet! For the past 5 years I have specialized in senior and special needs care, ensuring that medication and therapeutic schedules are maintained while the animal's main caregiver is away. Above all, I love all animals and want to make sure that your pet is as happy as can be! I am also available to provide training and/or continue training plans for your pets so they never skip a beat! I ride and train horses professionally so I am home all day and all my pets have an active play area outside while my hands are full with the horses. Your pet will enjoy a "farm feel" house sit where their days are filled with hands on walking and hands-free play. All the pets sleep inside and are welcome to sit on the couch while we wind down with an episode of TV or two! I have a fenced yard with grass and dirt for your pet to play in. I also am comfortable with special needs cases that need to be inside or that are unable to play off leash.

About: I have taken care of dogs of my own and other people’s dogs and cats since I was around 10, and have been involved in dog training since I was 13, even training my own service dog. I also dabble in dog walking. I used to work at a pet supply store that had store cats, and one of my daily chores was taking care of them, too. So I am well versed in dog AND cat care. I am currently working part time with weekends completely freed up, so I can be available in the later afternoons, and evenings, and early mornings. At my own home I have a fenced yard, but if you need me to crate your dog or if you have your own safety preferences I am definitely willing to work with them. In your home it is obviously whatever rules you have for your house, and I will follow them.

About: Hello! My names Anya! I’ve grown up with and looked after all kinds of four legged friends my entire life. We’ve always had family dogs and cats around since I can remember and lucky for me- I get to be the honorary horse girl in my family, which has led me to owning 3 horses of my own over the last couple years. I have experience with puppies and senior dogs, cats, and all sorts of farm animals. I love to be in the outdoors and active, so can guarantee any energetic pups will have their needs met. I truly strive to treat every pet as if it were my own and aim towards giving every animal the best care based on their own individual needs. I am currently enrolled in online Uni, so have quite a bit of freedom when it comes to availability! I am free weekdays, weekends, and holidays. I’m more than happy to work around your pets daytime and nighttime needs! I’m an enthusiastic learner and excited to follow through with your pet care wishes. I have experience with puppies in training and older dogs needing extra care, frequent bathroom breaks or medicine. Happy to adapt to any routines or tools your pet is used to/ what your home and property provides. Not currently looking to take on any pet sitting in my own home.

“Phoenix was very happy to take Jenifer for a walk. She said he did very well for her. I would recommend Jenifer because Phoenix liked her and was very happy when he came home. Jenifer was on time and very pleasant to talk with.”


About: I was a professional pet care provider for 2 years and have done it freelance on and off for the past 5 years. I have worked with a wide variety of pets including reptiles and birds. I’ve trained puppies and mature dogs and have battled the litter box countless times. I have always been a face that pets have trusted and warmed up to right away, even the most aggressive and timid dogs have cuddled up to me in a very short time period and some have even trusted me to train them to do tricks. Guess it’s my wild soul they see in me? I have administered medication and ointments as well. I also speak cat and dog very fluently I work from home so I am very flexible with my schedule and can do my work anywhere I want so that makes pet care very easy to fit around my work life I walk the perimeter of the yard and make sure gates are latched before the dog is let out and I stay in the yard with them when they are let out (for safety supervision and outdoor playtime). And if no yard is present then they are on leash at all times and I make sure their collar or harness is secure before attaching the leash

About: I’ve worked in an animal shelter and a few animal hospitals, gaining immense knowledge and insight to animal care. I have also owned and cared for dogs for my entire life. I do some remote work for a few hours a week, so I really have complete availability during the week. My weekends are also totally free. I can take your pups out multiple times a day. I enjoy walking, running, and playing games with the pups. I can also easily crate your dog, if that’s your preference. I can watch them play in the yard and even bring a dog friend along if you wish.

About: I know how important it is to feel completely at ease when leaving your pets in someone else’s care. That’s why I treat every pet like my own, providing attentive, thoughtful care tailored to their unique needs. With years of experience caring for animals of all sizes and personalities, I understand that each pet has their own quirks, routines, and comforts. Whether it's a playful pup who needs extra exercise, a senior pet requiring gentle attention, or an anxious companion who needs patience and reassurance, I’m here to provide the care they deserve. You can count on me to be reliable, communicative, and genuinely invested in your pet’s well-being. I’ll keep you updated with messages, photos, and videos so you always know your furry friend is safe and happy. Let me know how I can best support you and your pet—I’d love to help! I work full time from home. I am available on weekends for walks at any time of day. I am also available for the occasional weekday walk after work. I will always use a leash when walking with your dog - unless you clearly state otherwise. I will never walk off leash in areas where it might be unsafe to do so. Safety for your dog is of utmost importance to me. I have one 8 year old dog named Stevie. She loves going on walks with other dogs and is quick to make friends. She will most likely be with me for any of the walks so this is consideration for your pup. :)

About: I offer sitting on the north shore and in Victoria! I’m bouncing back and forth between the mainland and the island quite often, so can usually make arrangements to be wherever u need! I’ve grown up surrounded by animals. In Vancouver I have a 5 year old energetic golden retriever who we’ve had since he was a puppy, and we spend lots of time together. Going on hikes and walk's, swimming in the ocean, and playing in the backyard are all part of our daily routine. I live by lots of trails in a very pet friendly neighbourhood, so going outside to play is never an issue. I’m currently a student and my schedule is pretty flexible, so I have plenty of time to take care of your pups! I’m quite flexible so depending on your preferences I can be available for boarding! I have a fenced yard next to lots of trails with plenty of room to throw a ball or get some excersise in. My family has a 5 year old golden retriever who lives with us, but if your pets don’t do well with other dogs, I can come to you!

About: Surrounded by dogs and cats since childhood, I've been passionate about animals my whole life. As a teenager, I started taking care of pets in their owners' homes, gaining hands-on experience with both small and large dogs, as well as cats. Whether it's a playful puppy, a calm senior pet, or an energetic dog who loves long walks, I provide attentive and loving care. Walks are one of my favorite activities, and I take pride in ensuring pets are happy, healthy, and well-loved while their owners are away. As a seasonal worker during the summer, I have complete flexibility in the winter months. This allows me to dedicate my time fully to providing attentive and reliable care for your pets, whether it's for daily visits, extended stays, or long walks. Your pet's needs will always be my top priority. Whether in my home or in the comfort of your home, I prioritize creating a safe and stress-free environment for your pets. I ensure they feel secure, loved, and well cared for by following their routine, respecting their unique needs, and providing plenty of attention. I also value cleanliness and always leave your home as tidy as I found it. With my experience and calm demeanor, I build trust not only with your pets but also with you as an owner, giving you peace of mind while you're away.
