Pet care experience
WFH Dog Lover by VGH
Over the past year, I’ve been the full-time caregiver for my sister’s dog, managing everything from daily walks and feeding to endless playtime and cuddles. My partner, Carlina and I both work from home, meaning your dog will receive a ton of attention and never be lonely. We live in a spacious, pet-friendly apartment right by VGH with a park right in our backyard, so fresh air and exercise are always on the agenda. Whether your pup loves exploring the neighbourhood or just finding a cozy spot to nap, they will be in incredibly good hands with us—we love taking dogs on adventures and will even carry them up a hike if their paws get tired!
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Braden was great. Super responsive and sent updates throughout my dogs stay. No hesitation to find him on Rover again.
Braden was so good with my 9.5 yr old cocker spaniel. Unfortunately my dog has separation anxiety. Hopefully he can warm up in the future.
Braden was great with our very anxious beagle - Rusty was very happy & we got updates through out his stay! Rusty took to him right away & I would absolutely recommend!
Brayden and Carlina were absolutely wonderful with our dog, Bruce! Bruce was recovering from a back injury during his stay, so he needed his medication given on time and lots of rest (and attention), which made us a bit nervous about leaving him. But from the very start, Brayden and Carlina made us feel completely at ease! They were so genuinely caring and thoughtful, and you could tell they truly had Bruce's best interest at heart. They stayed on top of his medication, kept a close eye on how he was doing, and made sure he was comfortable and resting the way he needed to. Even with all the extra care involved, they gave him so much love and attention that Bruce was clearly happy and content the whole time - such a baby! Their communication was amazing too with regular updates that meant the world to us while we were away worrying. We are so grateful we found them! We would trust them with Bruce again in a heartbeat and couldn't recommend them more highly!
Braden took such great care of my dog! Making sure he ate even though he’s a picky eater and kept him happy by bringing him around people since that’s what he loves. I really appreciated the regular updates and photos, which gave me peace of mind while I was away! He’s a very kind and thoughtful sitter, I’d definitely recommend him! Thank you Braden!
Braden was amazing with our fur boy! He welcomed him into his home and was so considerate of our elder dog's needs. He kept us updated with photos and messages, and our pup came back happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with Braden again.

Schedule
Since we both work from home, our flexible schedules allow us to give pets a ton of attention throughout the day. We start our mornings with a walk and love having a furry companion join us. Throughout the day, we take regular breaks for playtime, potty relief, and short walks, followed by longer evening strolls or relaxing cuddle time. Whether it’s maintaining a strict feeding schedule or just providing companionship, we are fully open to giving your dog consistent, loving care every single day.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
In our home, your pet will have plenty of space to relax, a cozy spot to rest, and a clean, safe environment. We strictly follow their feeding and walking schedules, keep fresh water available, and shower them with love, attention, and playtime throughout the day. If we are caring for your pet in your home, we mirror their usual routine so they feel entirely secure. We pay close attention to all instructions and will keep you fully updated with regular photos and messages.
A typical day
During the day, we’ll take your dog for walks around the area, and after work, we head to the park for fetch and socializing. If they're up for a bigger adventure, we'd love to take them along on a hike!
