Pet care experience
For the last 8 years I have cared for pets in Tofino and am now available in Sooke and greater Victoria. Prior I have been a horseback guide on a Canadian ranch and a Whale/Bear watching guide, in Tofino, for 7 years. Westcoast Woof I love spending time with dogs, for daily walks or extended care durations and give their owners peace of mind, whilst they are out to work or play. I love to keep a calm, non-excited manner with all dogs so that they have a relaxed, yet fun time with me. It is my goal to return a happy, tired dog back to their owner. If you have a reactive dog or just want your pup to be walked alone, please inquire for my single-walk rate.
Reviews
Great dog care, would recommend!
Etienne was an absolute pleasure to deal with. Easy and prompt messaging. Very caring, and communicative, will happily and eagerly trust our pups with him again. Thanks!!
Both my pups seemed to enjoy Etienne's company over the Christmas break. We received lots of photos and videos of the dogs running around and having fun, which made it easier to be away from them. The doggos were happy and sleepy when we arrived home, and the house as we left it. We will definitely use Etienne's services in the future.
Étienne was incredible with our dog! She’s a bit shy but he won her over in no time. He kept us updated with pictures of their adventures while we were away and was flexible to stay a bit longer than initially planned as our plans changed. We are very grateful and our dog is already missing him!

I only offer 'in your home' VIP (VeryImportantPooch) overnight service, walks and daycare at this time. I would ask that we have some over the phone / video call 'interviews' prior to booking, so that we would meet you and the pets, and we can dial down the details of your home and your requirements. Every dog is different, and every home is unique ! Wherever I care for a pet, it is always pets needs first.
Home
Information Etienne H. would like to know about your pet
All breeds are amazing, be it the tiniest Pomeranian, the largest Great Dane or the most muscly, yet happy Pitbull. No breed or size preferences. I believe that all dogs are the product of how they have been raised. But when they come out with myself, I see a new book, a new page and big potential. We shall have a great time ! I am now available in the greater Victoria/Sooke area. PLEASE READ: The daycare rate covers up to 7-hours, additional time would add an added charge! I am available for Canada-wide dog/house sits and VIP (Very Important Pooch). Travel arrangements would need to be discussed prior to booking. Please ask me for reduced daily rate for extended stays and multiple pets.
A typical day
I love to have engaging walks and bike rides on our beaches and on the trails around us and for our older dog clients we offer walks to the park, through town, to a close by area and to just keep them good company. Whatever is best for your dog, I will make it happen. Every walk can be tailored to your dogs needs, be it a young puppy or an old gentle dog.

Availability
If I were to come to your home to look after your pet / pets, I would be home with them pretty much all of the day and night and usually take them to wherever I am going. Outings to get groceries etc .. would be when they would be left alone, or if they are good in the car / crate that is also an option (depending on weather and heat). I will discuss their individual needs with you.
