Ben always goes above and when taking care of Astro! We’re able to h.ave the peace of mind knowing Astro is in good hands
Thank you Ben for providing Astro with another full day of fun with your family! He definitely loooves seeing you guys and going on the fun adventures you bring him on! You guys are the best!!
This is our second time booking with Benjamin and we’re left absolutely speechless with how above and beyond he went with taking care of our Astro. Unfortunately, this time around Astro was ridden with an upset tummy the whole time and Ben was so gracious to not only take care and clean Astro but also around his environment; not once but a myriad of events. Ben and his wife continues to treat Astro as their own furry family member and it was evident with how they prioritized Astro’s wellbeing and how proactive they were in their care and communication with my partner and I. They kept Astro safe and healthy and happy and we can’t be more thankful!
This was our first time booking a sitter for our little guy, Astro, and choosing Ben was the best decision we made. Ben and his wife took care of Astro as if he was their own and we couldn’t be more grateful. They brought him on fun adventures and gave him the best treats! Ben constantly gave us updates on Astro and even sent us photos! My partner and I are truly amazed by how above and beyond they went to taking care of Astro and we we’re looking forward to booking more in the future!
Thank you Benjamin for taking great care of our girl Lucy. It’s so great to be able to travel knowing that your dog is in good hands and is well looked after and cared for. Benjamin communicates very well and often and provides lots of updates and pictures. Lucy clearly had a great vacation too! Thank you Benjamin! Top notch.
Benjamin took amazing care of our dog Gaspar over the long weekend. He didn’t just dog-sit—he took Gaspar on fun adventures and made sure he was active, happy, and loved the entire time. We got regular updates and could tell Gaspar was in great hands. He came home relaxed and clearly well cared for. We’re so grateful to have found someone as reliable and kind as Benjamin. Gaspar couldn’t have been happier!

Schedule
As I work full time for the City of Richmond, I've hope to integrate my commitment to caring for dogs into my daily and weekly routines. Mornings would start with feeding, exercise, and potty breaks to ensure they're content and active before I head to work. During my lunch break, I would provide another chance for play and relief. Evenings are dedicated to quality time, whether it's a long walk, or just cuddle time. On weekends, we embark on exciting adventures to keep them engaged and happy. To maintain consistency, we stick to set schedules for meals and bedtime. This holistic approach ensures that the dogs thrive and feel loved despite my full-time work commitments with the City of Richmond. As this is a new venture I hope to figure out what works best for myself and most importantly the doggos!
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I live in a spacious 2-bedroom condo in Burquitlam with plenty of room for dogs to relax and feel at home. Our place is clean, comfortable, and pet-friendly, with nearby parks and green spaces perfect for walks and outdoor time. We’re experienced dog lovers and would be happy to welcome your pup into our home while you’re away!
A typical day
When I watch pets, I like to tailor activities to their personalities. For energetic dogs, I'll take them on long walks or to the dog park. For more laid-back pets, I'll spend time playing with toys or just relaxing together. I always make sure to give them lots of love and attention!

- Absolutely, knowing about their pets ahead of time is crucial. Understanding their routines, likes, and dislikes helps me provide the best care possible. It also allows me to plan activities that align with their needs and preferences, ensuring a happy and comfortable experience for them.
